103: Booth
Coming out of the landlord, Cao Ming went straight to the vegetable market, because of the winter vacation to sell food, Cao Ming was already familiar with some vendors, grinding left and right, and finally finalized the price of vegetables to be served in the future. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Because Cao Ming's demand has plummeted this time, people are not very willing to take the way of regular supply, Cao Ming is cheeky, and he blew nonsense on his neck, saying that his "career" has just started, and the amount will definitely go up in the future, and he plays the emotional card:
"I'll definitely use your food then."
It's good to say that it has moved people.
I discussed it with Wang Yiheng once before, and he strongly recommended Cao Ming to sell fried skewers, which are simple to make and taste good, the key is that they can attract people when they are fried.
The children's noses are smart and soft, and they can't smell the strong fragrance, and they definitely want to eat it when they smell it. What's more, Wang Yiheng has a sauce recipe for making fried skewers at home. Cao Ming knows that people are experts, and of course he follows advice.
I bought cashew nuts, peanuts, sesame seeds, star anise, peppercorns, etc. at the seasoning shop, and gathered the ingredients for boiling shabu-shabu sauce before going back.
In the evening, Wang Yiheng sent the formula, and also visited Cao Ming's nest by the way, and was amazed.
When Mr. Zhao came back when he was boiling the sauce, he thought that the teacher was visiting Cao Ming's house, serving tea and pouring water, and he sang white on the side with a smile.
Finally accepted the reality that the head teacher lived here, Zhou Dan came back on the back foot, a snow-white nurse uniform had not been changed, and after entering the door, he touched Cao Ming's head, and Shi Shiran entered another room.
Wang Yiheng was stunned again.
Cao Ming knew that he couldn't say a sentence or two, so he simply shut up and didn't mention this stubble, so that he didn't think about it, and guided the boiling sauce with peace of mind.
It took nearly an hour and a half, and the things in the pot finally had the meaning of a finished product, and the fragrance slowly began to overflow, He Songbai dipped a spoon and licked it, and smashed his mouth:
"Don't say it, it's really that interesting, it tastes good."
Wang Yiheng breathed a sigh of relief and tasted it himself:
"It's average, not as good as my dad. Maybe we use liquefied gas, the fire is a little urgent, my family uses firewood when boiling, and the fire is slowly simmered. ”
Cao Ming himself tasted it and was full of praise:
"It tastes pretty good, with your material, it's hard to think about business if it's not hot."
Wang Yiheng was unmoved and insisted:
"Cao Ming, I see that there is not a big open space downstairs in the community, when we are fine, we can use yellow clay to make a stove and build a pot, with it, I guarantee that this taste will definitely be able to go to the next level."
Seeing that he was so attentive, Cao Ming smiled and agreed:
"Cheng, what Director Wang says is what he says, I'll get you a stove when I have time to catch up with Ming'er."
Following.
Cao Ming went to the landlord's house early, explained the time, and asked the eldest girl to arrive at the school gate half an hour early after school, and the things were stored there, as long as the pot was boiled in advance.
After school at noon, Wang Dali and He sang Bai were much more active, Cao Ming hadn't gone out yet, they were urging Cao Ming to hurry up at the door, and they were a little impatient to see the clinical effect. When I arrived at the scheduled location, the big girl had already cooked the stove, and the oil in the pot had begun to smell.
Cao Ming rolled up his sleeves and immediately went into battle, picking a few bunches of vegetable balls that he had stayed up late yesterday and washed and put them in the pot. Wang Yiheng squeezed over and told Cao Ming something to pay attention to.
Wang Dali's eyes were alive and conscious, and the tables and stools were set out.
Of course He Singbai was embarrassed to be idle, he was thick-skinned, he picked up Meng Fan beside him, and greeted the students with a smile on his face, but this guy was a bit of a thief, looking for other girls.
Soon after the thing was put into the oil, the fragrance became stronger, and Wang Yiheng reminded Cao Ming that he could fish it out:
"You can take more time for meat, vegetables and mushrooms and the like can actually go through a few laps in boiling oil, and you can only eat the oil after frying for a long time."
Cao Ming beckoned a few friends not to be busy with their work first, come over and eat something, put on a plain iron plate with a bag, and tasted it by themselves.
On the other hand, several students who were greeted by He Singbai and Meng Fan hesitated for a long time and finally made up their minds, and picked something on the self-service plate.
Cao Ming ignored the exaggerated acting skills of He Sing Bai Wang Dali's gang of "trusts", and Wang Yiheng served customers with peace of mind, things were done, served over, and by the way, sauces, cumin and other condiments were also put over, so that they could adjust the amount according to their own tastes, and they were thrifty and frugal, as much or as they pleased.
Wang Yiheng didn't leave after putting the things on the table, staring at others, eager to know their reactions.
A few little customers were stared at and didn't taste anything, and when Cao Ming asked after eating, they didn't say anything ugly.
Anyway, Cao Ming's first day of stall business ended in a tepid state, and it was easy to sell for two periods.
Although a large group of fox friends and dog friends who sang Bai Wang Dali and others went to cheer for the party, the business did not meet the standard of "good".
The students are different from the migrant workers after Cao Ming, they prefer tricks and gimmicks, and the big girl was the first to discover this, and reported the sales and types on the first day to Cao Ming, which is detailed and appropriate, with comparisons and data:
By the way, more than a dozen meat buns were sold, but more than 40 cups of milk tea were sold, and the profit in the middle was even as much as one cup higher than that of the main business of fried skewers.
Cao Ming understood what she meant by telling this statistic to herself, and was surprised by the sharpness of the eldest girl's mind, and praised her fiercely, but she did not adjust it immediately, so that the eldest girl should not worry and prepare to observe for a few days.
In the next few days, the freshness of He Sing Bai Mengfan and several people passed, and the enthusiasm declined, and gradually came less, that is, Wang Yiheng no longer came to personally "guide" every time after insisting on it for a few more days, besides, in fact, there is nothing to guide, fried skewers said that the sky is like that, there are no technical requirements, just look at the heat just the right time, and it is enough to understand the situation of the stall when I usually meet Cao Ming.
They came less, but the other students gradually learned about Cao Ming's stall at the school gate, some were curious, and some watched jokes, but no matter what, they all came over to taste a few bites, and the days passed day by day, more or less accumulated a small group of loyal repeat customers. The sales of the stalls have gradually increased, although the range is very small, but on the whole, Cao Ming is still very satisfied, at least now the expenses in the school are guaranteed.
Later, Cao Ming held an activity, and found someone to print a few points cards, and everyone who came to eat was given one, and every time he consumed, he could get two strings of vegetarian dishes or a cup of milk tea for free.
During this period, the point system was not yet as widespread as it was later, and many people were enthusiastic about it, and business took it to the next level.
It is worth mentioning that the matter of Cao Ming's stall was transmitted to the school through Mr. Zhao, and the head of the department thought about it, packaged it, and regarded it as a typical thing at a meeting of the leaders of the Education Bureau to guide the meeting.
Yu Zhengping of the Education Bureau looked strange when he heard the name Cao Ming, and turned his head to the principal of No. 8 Middle School and muttered:
"Is this kid the one who gave a speech at your school in the gymnasium last time?"
The headmaster nodded without knowing whether he was happy or worried.
Yu Zhengping was interested: "The little guy is quite capable of tossing." ”
The leader's attitude was unclear, and the principal was not easy to answer, just laughing.
What no one expected was that when the Education Bureau group was about to get on the bus and leave after the inspection, Yu Zhengping suddenly proposed to go to Cao Ming's small booth to have a look.
At that time, Cao Ming was not out of school, and the big girl was there, and it is said that the battle frightened her at that time, and a large circle of people gathered there to talk and laugh, point and point, and do not buy anything, and thought that the black and astringent would be.
Since then, many teachers from the school have begun to patronize the business of this stall one after another, and the power of role models is endless, and within a few days, under their influence, the number of student visits to this small booth ushered in a period of rapid growth.
