Chapter 4 Business is booming
Cao Jin and Huo Yuan knew that Cai Wei was about to open a store, and they both gave her a lot of valuable help.
Huo Yuan personally escorted the five hundred catties of cumin to Cai Wei's new restaurant, Cai Wei wanted to return the 1,500 taels of silver that originally sold cumin, but Huo Yuan refused to accept it, only said that he used the five hundred catties of cumin as a gift to Cai Wei to open a shop.
Cao Jin chose four young and clever little guys at home, and gave them to Cai Wei together with the deed of sale of several small guys, Xu was guilty of earning Cai Wei's family to return to Beijing, and Cao Jin always spared no effort to help in the process of Cai Wei's planning to open a store.
Cai Wei needs a stove for baking snacks, a kebab stove, a skewer and other things, all of which he single-handedly took care of, and within two days of getting Cai Wei's drawings, these things have been laid down at all and sent to Mao'er Hutong.
In addition to the four servants sent by Cao Jin, Mu Zhongqing hired three more men and three mothers-in-law to use kebabs and dumplings, Cai Wei put forward strict requirements for their hygiene habits, and conducted strict training for several employees in the restaurant.
After more than ten days of intensive preparations, the Mu family's "Bafu Restaurant" finally opened.
Early in the morning on the day of the opening, on the lively and noisy streets of Beijing, a white-haired monkey with two long eyebrows suddenly came, the monkey wore a small robe, and the back was embroidered with the words "Bafu Restaurant", and the specific location of the Bafu Restaurant was embroidered on the belt of the robe.
The monkey walked down the street in a hurry, holding a stack of papers, distributing them to passers-by along the way, who took the paper curiously and saw an advertisement on the paper about the Eight Blessing Restaurant.
In this era, people have not yet understood advertising, and they are not like modern people who have immunity to advertising, when they see this monkey that behaves like a human, and when they get the leaflet in the monkey's hand, they are curious to walk to the position on the leaflet.
Walking through the streets and alleys, when they walked to the hat alley, a unique aroma of barbecue wafted in the air, the thick aroma of meat, accompanied by the aroma of cumin, sesame seeds and other spices, flowed in the air, making people's appetite move and salivate.
"What is this? Why is it so fragrant? β
A few scholar-like people stopped at the door of the Bafu Restaurant, looked curiously at the long row of iron stoves at the door, and asked questions to the guys who were barbecuing.
"Guest officer, this is a kebab, the only one in the capital, cheap and delicious, come in and try it!"
The guy on the kebab greeted warmly, and the fan in his hand became more energetic.
With his instigation, the strong aroma of meat skewers continued to come, and a few people couldn't stand the noise of the worms in their stomachs and stepped into the restaurant.
In the restaurant, the young man who had been trained by Cai Wei was wearing clean work clothes, and when he saw someone coming in, he immediately greeted him warmly and greeted him with a smile: "Welcome, several guest officers, please inside." β
"Hmm..."
Before the guests had time to take their seats, they were attracted by the two paintings on the walls of the restaurant, which were full of pictures and bright colors.
One of them, depicting a young and wonderful girl, smiling and smiling, stood behind a table, on which there were several large trays, which contained all kinds of skewers, including kebabs, grilled seafood, grilled vegetables, grilled steamed buns, etc., under each tray, the price of the skewers in the tray was marked......
The picture is vivid, and the various skewers are shiny and colorful, and you can almost smell the aroma of the skewers.
The second picture depicts the table top of a large round table, which is filled with colorful pastries, which are very realistically drawn, some are round, some are triangular, some are plum blossoms, and some are quadrangular, each of which is small and chic, which makes people have an appetite at the first sight.
Under each pastry, the price of the pastry is marked, although it is not cheap, but it is also within the range that most people can accept.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what do you want to eat? Despite the point, the small shop opened today, and the owner ordered, all customers who spend more than one or two silver in the store today can get a piece of pastries on it for free, and the opportunity is not to be missed! β
The guests looked at the pictures on the wall, pointed to a few of them, and ordered the list.
The strong advertising effect of Changmei, as well as the attraction of the aroma of kebabs, did not take long for the Bafu Restaurant to be full, and there was even a long queue outside the door, waiting to eat this strange and fragrant new thing.
In the process of waiting, Cai Wei did not let everyone wait in vain, each person sent a skewer of grilled oily meat skewers, the meat skewers were covered with oil stars, wrapped in a large number of spices, and ate a bite, only so fragrant that people hated to swallow their tongues together, the impatience of the writer, the guests who were about to leave, after eating this meat skewer, where were they willing to leave, they all looked at the restaurant, obediently lined up, looking forward to their turn soon.
The inside of the shop is now in full swing, and the four guys are running up and down without touching the ground, shouting.
"Table No. 7 on the first floor, plus 50 roasted cooked tendons, 20 roasted fat and lean ......"
"The second floor room No. 3 pays, a total of two taels and five cents of silver, and two copies of various snacksββ"
ββ¦β¦β
Mu Zhongqing stood in the counter, acting as a temporary shopkeeper, watching the silver of the white flowers keep entering the account, and he was overjoyed, and the abacus in his hand pulled louder!
The business of the restaurant is booming, all in Caiwei's expectations, this scene, as if it reappeared yesterday, made her happy, but also a little emotional, I don't know how she is in the Bafu Restaurant in Qingyun Town, how is it now? I don't know what Uncle Zhou, Aunt Zhou and Jiujin are doing now!
Huo Yuan and Cao Jin arrived early in the morning, and the two of them brought a table of friends to cheer for Cai Wei, and the friends they brought were all lively, rich and rich, and they were all potential stocks that could bring back customers to Cai Wei in the future......
The business of the restaurant is surprisingly good, from the opening in the morning, it has been busy until the end of the day, although a little tired, but everyone is happy.
The proprietor said that the wages of the guys were paid according to the income of the shop, that is, the higher the income in the shop, the more they were paid.
When the shopkeeper Mu calculated that today's net income was forty-four taels and six cents, the guys cheered, the owner earned more than forty taels a day, and they could earn more than four hundred taels a day, that is to say, each of them could have an income of more than ten taels of silver per month.
With such a rich income, it is simply unimaginable for them, with such a good job, it will not be a problem to marry a daughter-in-law and support a family in the future!
A few guys went back from work happily, and the fatigue all over their bodies was swept away, and everyone left in a hurry, anxious to go back and tell the good news to their families!
Mu Zhongqing was also very happy, when he used to teach in Qingyun Town, he only had an income of one or two taels of silver a month, but running a restaurant, he could earn forty or fifty taels of silver a day, which was also unbelievable.
He roughly calculated that if the restaurant continued to develop according to the current situation, his family would have more than 1,000 taels of silver every month, which was something he couldn't have imagined before!
When he went home, Mu Zhongqing, who was sitting in the carriage, said to his daughter sincerely.
"Wei'er, you are really amazing, our family can have today, thanks to you!"
He watched his daughter grow up, and he never dreamed that the timid and shy daughter who was silent back then could become the strong she is today!
Sometimes, he would think that this daughter was very strange, she was capable, strong, active thinking, shrewd, like a person with decades of life experience, who could deal with everything calmly and wisely, and the two of them in the past, if she had not had the same face as before, he would never believe that the person sitting opposite him was his former daughter.
Cai Wei listened to Mu Zhongqing's words, smiled disapprerovantly, and said: "This is nothing, but it is just the first step in the completion of the Long March, in the future, our family will open many shops, so that our Mu family's shops will be all over the Great Jin Kingdom, when the time comes, Daddy, you will be a rich man who counts money every day until his hands cramp!" β
"Hahaha......"
Mu Zhongqing was amused by his daughter's painting, thinking that his daughter was telling jokes to make him happy, where did he think that his daughter's words would become a reality one day!
When they returned to Changchun Garden, Du Shi, Mei Shi, Cai Fei and Wen Er had not yet slept, and they were waiting for them while gossiping. Have you eaten? I boiled the purple rice porridge and left it in the pot, so I'll serve it to you. β
"Hey, Meiniang, don't be busy, Wei'er and I have already eaten in the restaurant."
Mu Zhongqing grabbed the Hun family, took out a heavy money bag from his arms, and handed it over.
"This is our family's income for a day, you can put it away!"
Du Shi took the money bag, opened it and looked at it, and was startled.
"Oh, why are there so many, it's forty or fifty taels!"
"Forty-four, two, six, three cents!"
Mu Zhongqing added.
"What? Earned more than forty taels of silver in one day? β
Du Shi, Cai Fei and Wen'er couldn't believe their ears, and looked at Mu Zhongqing in a daze and asked.
"Well, we earned it in one day, and in the future, we can get back so much every day!"
Mu Zhongqing said proudly to his wife and children.
Cai Fei looked at the money bag in her mother's hand, and said expectantly: "When our family has more money, we will go to find a better doctor to see if we can cure my grandmother's eyes, my grandmother's eyes are crying and blind, not injured and blind, and should be cured." β
Mei Shi heard her granddaughter's intimate words, her heart was warm, and said: "Even if our family earns a lot of silver now, we can't waste it, in the future, you and Wei'er will go out of the cabinet, and the two boys will marry, and they will have to use a lot of silver, grandmother's eyes have been blind for more than ten years, it's not better, Fei'er, don't worry about this grandmother's eyes anymore!" β
Cai Fei's words made Cai Wei ashamed, these days, she patronized the matter of planning to open a store, and forgot to find the old turtle to show her grandmother's eyes, the old turtle is a miracle doctor, there must be a way to cure her grandmother's eyes!
