Chapter IV: Surprise Inspections
The next morning, Lin Yi went to the vegetable market early to buy large bags of ingredients, and on the way back, he deliberately went to a Buddhist shop to sell an incense burner and a box of sandalwood.
At nine o'clock, Zhang Xiaohai and waiter Liu Yanqiu arrived one after another, and the three of them began to get busy. It is very tiring to open a snack bar, especially in a small shop like Lin Yi, there are no main dishes, there are many styles of snacks, the required ingredients are also quite complicated, and the preparation is extremely heavy. The three of them started preparing at nine o'clock in the morning, boiling the broth, picking vegetables, cutting vegetables, and working until eleven o'clock in one breath before they were finally ready to stop, Lin Yi hurriedly made three more meals, and the three of them ate lunch in advance.
Everything was as Lin Yi expected, the store began to have customers at half past eleven, and eight tables were filled before twelve o'clock, and even when Fang Jiayi and Yuanyuan, who were repeat customers again, brought their colleagues again, there was no place to sit in the store.
"Oh, it's late, why is business so good today?" Fang Jiayi pouted.
"Isn't it normal for his house to smell so good and have good business?" said Yuanyuan.
"That's not good enough, poor my handsome boss definitely won't have time to serve me personally......" Fang Jiayi said.
"Haha, you nymphomaniac, is it because this food is delicious, or is it because the boss is handsome?" the girls laughed.
It's easy to wait until other guests have eaten, Liu Yanqiu hurriedly cleaned up the empty bowls and plates, and turned over the table, and a few people sat down to order food while asking if there was a Meituan in the store.
Of course, Meituan was also registered in the store, but Lin Yi didn't take Meituan seriously when business was good - the ordering platform on it still had to take a cut. After the opening of the food street, Meituan has already been ranked by other businesses, and small shops like Lin Yi are naturally rarely cared for.
"Let's order Meituan in the future. A girl who came last night shouted.
"Cut, I won't order it, I'm going to come to the store to see the handsome guy!" Fang Jiayi shouted while looking at Lin Yi who was busy in the kitchen through the glass, and that appearance naturally attracted a burst of ridicule from everyone.
In addition to Fang Jiayi and others, there are also many repeat customers, such as the little fat man who claimed to be a foodie yesterday, such as the big man who ate two bowls of noodles alone, and they all ran over one after another, Lin Yi took a cursory look at it in a hurry, except for the team of more than a dozen people who obviously came to the meeting from other places yesterday, more than half of the rest of the diners became repeat customers, and most of them brought colleagues and friends together, and some couldn't wait for seats and simply packed them away.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, when the hotel was finally cleaned, Lin Yi looked at the data in the cash register, and it was as high as one hundred and twelve transactions, even exceeding the highest score after he took over the store!
According to a rough estimate, according to the average gross profit of seven yuan per meal-in fact, a few of them order slightly more expensive stir-fried vegetables, and the profit is much higher - today's gross profit is at least more than 700 yuan, excluding Zhang Xiaohai and Liu Yanqiu's monthly salary of 2,008 yuan, as well as the rent of 200 yuan per day, and more than 300 yuan of earnings. Not counting whether there are guests at night, just one meal at noon, the monthly income can easily exceed 10,000 yuan!
Lin Yi was naturally overjoyed by this, but the owners of several other shops on the same street couldn't sit still.
Everyone is opening a shop on the same street, why is your family's business better than ours? Why is everyone's business not good, but your family is good? People do not suffer from widowhood but unevenness, and it is indispensable that several bosses have gathered in the yellow stewed chicken shop diagonally opposite the door, staring at Lin Yi's store with red eyes.
"Why is his family's business suddenly improving?" said the owner of the ramen restaurant, taking a hard puff on his cigarette.
"You ask me, who do I ask?" Cui Yuchao's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip water, it was the closest to his family and Lin Yi's store, but at noon, there were two groups of customers in his store, and they were all the cheapest yellow stewed chicken rice bowls.
"I think this kid has used some crooked tricks, otherwise where would business suddenly get better?" muttered the proprietress of the casserole noodles.
"Well, I took a look, and there are a lot of repeat customers who came yesterday today......" Cui Yuchao said thoughtfully with a frown.
"I tasted it when he opened it, and it tasted like that......" said the wonton shop owner.
"You say, could he be a topper...... ramen restaurant owner.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help frowning. Anyone who does this knows that if you want to attract repeat customers, the most ruthless way is to add some large smoke shells when boiling soup, that thing will be addictive, and you can't help but be a repeat customer every day after eating it twice, and you will be anxious and uncomfortable if you don't eat a meal. This is not an uncommon thing, many snack bars will use it secretly, but this thing is illegal, and if you catch it, you will be sentenced.
"Mada, if that's the case, we'll have to sue him for being a calf!" said the owner of the wonton shop through gritted teeth, and several people looked at each other......
Lin Yi didn't know that he had committed public anger, cleaned up the storefront, continued to work in the evening, properly sold forty or fifty meals, and received two tables of customers who ordered stir-fried dishes and drank wine, and now the income went straight to the standard of 15,000......
The next day, it was still early purchase, respectfully incense to the grandfather, hurriedly prepared the materials, and waited until half past eleven, the store was unexpectedly crowded with customers.
"Boss, let's have a braised pork rice bowl. ”
"We want two servings of jajangmyeon and two servings of egg drop soup. ”
"Stir-fry a fish-flavored shredded pork, a kung pao chicken, a garlic and oil wheat cabbage, three bowls of rice, three bottles of beer......"
One meal after another was reported, Lin Yi in the kitchen was busy and hot, sweating, but he felt extremely fulfilled, but he didn't want this good mood to be interrupted by a loud shout soon.
"Who's the boss! Stop, don't eat!"
A couple of uniformed guys squeezed into the store and shouted, "We're from the Upper East Branch, and we're going to conduct a surprise ......inspection because someone reported using poppy shells in this store."
"Ahh
"Really, no wonder I think his food is delicious......
"Not to mention, I ate here once yesterday, and today I feel addicted, and I want to eat at his house every day......"
"Fortunately, the meal we ordered hasn't been cooked yet, let's go quickly and eat elsewhere!"
"Don't talk nonsense, how can the handsome boss use that kind of thing?" said Fang Jiayi, she and Yuanyuan have become die-hard fans of Lin Yi, and they come here to eat every day at noon and night, and they are no longer limited to spicy hot and sour noodles, but no matter what dishes they order, they feel that what Lin Yi makes is the best.
"Is it nonsense, we'll know when we check it!" A guy who took the lead glanced at Fang Jiayi and shouted, "Where's the boss, come out quickly!"
Lin Yi in the kitchen hurriedly turned off the fire, walked out with a frying spoon, but his brows were already wrinkled tightly, but he saw that there were four or five people on the other side, three of them were wearing uniforms, and two were in civilian clothes.
