Chapter 219: Three Good Guests
While Zhou Xina was talking, Pan Xiaoni brought the dishes over and put them on the table, then pretended to be very helpless, sighed and said: "Alas, no matter what you say, you are always reasonable, forget it, the wine and food are all ready, I am also hungry, so I won't tell you." Let's eat. ”
After speaking, she sat down next to Zhang Yang, opened a few beers one after another, and didn't use a cup, just took the beer can and drank and ate food.
Regarding her daughter's witty words, Zhou Xina plucked her eyes twice, and didn't bother with her anymore, after greeting Lao Pan, who was in the back kitchen, she also sat down and accompanied her son-in-law and daughter to eat and drink.
Eating at noon, because we had to go to work in the afternoon, everyone didn't drink much, so the meal was finished quickly. Then, pick up what should be picked up, and go to work when it should be worked.
Life goes on like this, meal after meal, day after day. Soon, a week passed.
This week, I don't know if it's because the newly paved concrete floor of the noodle shop has changed the feng shui, or if the diners have suddenly discovered that noodles are a delicacy again, and the long-term business is surprisingly good. Zhou Xina was so busy that her feet didn't touch the ground every day, and she screamed about back pain every night and asked Pan Xiaoni to massage her.
Pan Xiaoni looked a little distressed, so she persuaded her to hire someone, but Zhou Xina blocked her back with a sentence: "Do you know that you don't need to pay a salary to hire someone?" ”
When she said this, no one would work for others in vain, but after Zhou Xina said it, everyone couldn't refute her. Yes, it costs money to hire people, a small business like their noodle restaurant, it is okay to rely on your own family to work, if you hire people, unless it is really too large to have a large number of customers, it is really not cost-effective.
Moreover, as far as their noodle restaurant is concerned, the business is not so good every day, it is busy today, you have hired people, in case the business is not good in a few days, you can't drive people away. That's not a problem.
But if you don't pick up others, you will invisibly add another expense, and you have to bear it yourself. After careful calculation, it is better not to hire people in the first place.
Pan Xiaoni also understands this truth, she persuaded her mother to hire people, mainly because she was afraid that they would be tired.
In other words, the main reason is that the business of Pan Xiaoni's noodle restaurant is still not hot enough, if it is hot enough, the cost of labor does not need to be so calculated.
However, although Zhou Xina did not adopt Pan Xiaoni's advice to hire people, she still paid attention to the problem of labor intensity, and the measure she took was that if she was too busy, she would let the guests serve noodles by themselves, in addition, she also bought a bunch of bowls as if she was outside, so that there were more bowls, she didn't have to put away the bowls, and Lao Pan didn't need to brush the bowls vigorously, this bowl could wait until the guests left to brush it at one time, so that Zhou Xina and Lao Pan reduced the running in the middle. Lao Pan saves time to wash the dishes, and he can also help her.
Not to mention, in this way, their labor intensity has really decreased a lot. When Zhou Xina arrived at night, her waist didn't hurt so much.
In addition to the fact that her back is not so painful, what makes Zhou Xina happy is that these days, the three guests who found flies in the dishes did not get angry because of the flies, and they actually came to eat every day, and every time they came, they also asked for good wine and food, so that she made a small profit from them.
This made her look up to the three of them, and every time they came, they were very enthusiastic about them, lest they lose such a high-quality source of customers.
Business is difficult to do, repeat customers are not easy to maintain, and it is difficult to have a few people who come to consume every day, so naturally they can't be lazy.
No, at noon dinner on this day, the three guests came again, and although Zhou Xina was busy making noodles, she still greeted them politely and asked them what they wanted.
This time they were still very generous, and asked for six dishes at once, a bottle of good wine, and a case of canned beer, saying that they had something happy and wanted to drink to their heart's content.
When Zhou Xina heard this, she was very happy, and immediately asked Lao Pan to stir-fry for them, and she hurriedly finished the work in her hand, and specially made a pot of good tea and sent it over.
You know, in their store, most of the customers who come to eat noodles really regard this place as a noodle restaurant, and if they come here, they usually leave after eating noodles, and there are few people like them, who treat them as a restaurant, and every time they come, they have to stir-fry and drink.
A bowl of noodles is only five yuan, even if it is all profit, it is only five yuan, but every time they come, they almost have to spend more than 100 yuan, so they can make a profit. Can Zhou Xina be carelessly served?
"Boss, your business here is much better than the day we first came, you see, there is almost no place to sit." They watched Zhou Xina put away the empty bowl in front of them and talked to her.
"Hehe, it's okay, it's all thanks to you, since you came, business in this store has improved." Zhou Xina is naturally very good at speaking, and for them, it is inevitable to flatter a few words.
"Haha, so it's our credit that the business in your store is good, so the boss doesn't say that you will take care of us and add a dish to us?" The fat man climbed along the pole and used Zhou Xina's words to gain benefits for himself.
"I don't take care of you yet, you see, I made you hundreds of dollars a pound of tea that my son-in-law gave me, come and taste it, isn't it very good." Zhou Xina won't add vegetables to them, it's good to be able to make them a pot of this good tea.
"yes, don't lie to us, we're good tea-drinkers." The fat man heard her praise her for her good tea, so he quickly picked up the teacup and took a sip, then touched it with his mouth, and then, his eyes lit up.
"Not to mention, it's really good tea, no worse than the one in that teahouse." The fat man praised.
"Look, I didn't lie to you, hehe, it's hot, drink a cup of tea first to relieve the heat, and the food will come up immediately." Seeing that she had successfully diverted the topic of the fat man's request for additional dishes, Zhou Xina wiped the table with a rag, said a kind word to them, and walked away with a few empty bowls.
As soon as she walked away, the fat man said to his two companions: "Look, this old lady has a sweet mouth, and when it comes to adding vegetables, she will immediately interrupt her, hehe." Brothers, but we can't just let her earn our money, today, we have to let her family spend a little money. ”
The fat man is the lump, and his two companions are the pillar and the little donkey. At this time, the tall and thin pillar and the black scar-faced little donkey, listening to his words, also smiled and responded to him: "Brother, don't worry, she must look good later, and by the way, get back the money we spent in the past few days." ”
At this time, there are a lot of people in the noodle restaurant, it is quite noisy, and if the three of them are muttering here, Zhou Xina doesn't want to hear a word, even the evil smile on their faces, because she is busy with business, she doesn't see it at all.
Again, because they didn't speak very loudly, none of the guests around them heard them.
Then again, when they talk like this, they don't name or say their names, even if anyone around them hears them, they definitely can't think that they want to do bad things to others. (To be continued.) )
