After the Spring Festival, it entered February, in addition to the fixed daily trip to and from the aquatic company, Su Yuanyang began to prepare for the new farm.

Su Yuanyang had already been in contact with Su Xingqun and Chen Wenyu, and they all agreed to work on the farm. The salary is also negotiated, 1,000 yuan per month, and when the oysters are ripe, a certain bonus will be given for the good harvest.

1,000 yuan a month, which is more than 30 yuan a day, and the salary is not bad. At this time, those who go out to work are almost forty yuan a day, and they have to run around various construction sites outside all year round, so Su Xingqun and Chen Wenyu are relatively satisfied. Besides, if you do a good job, you will be rewarded at that time! There's no such thing as going out to work.

By late February, the oyster harvest was almost coming to an end. The clean-up of the new farm has also been completed, so Su Yuanyang greeted Cheng Hui the day before, and the next day, the boat that came to transport the oysters brought the oyster seedlings by the way.

There are still many people in the village who do not want to go out to work, and usually take some short-term jobs to do. Su Yuanyang and Li Wanzhen discussed and invited ten people who usually work honestly, and brought them to the shoal area in two small boats, taking advantage of the opportunity to transport oysters on the boat, Su Yuanyang taught them the skills and essentials of cuttings, and called Su Xingqun and Chen Wenyu to come over and tell him about the precautions, and then let Su Xingqun drive a small boat to send him to the oyster harvest area.

There are not many oysters left in the harvest area, and it is nothing for Su Xingqun to see.

Cheng Hui and they only collected the entire cement column, and it is estimated that it will be finished in a day or two. The remaining ones that were broken in the process of displacement needed to be dealt with by Su Yuanyang himself, and Su Yuanyang was also thinking about this matter when he was idle these days.

In the end, he decided to go back in the evening to discuss with Li Wanzhen to see if he could contact the baking stalls he saw in the city at the beginning and sell them at a lower price.

As soon as Su Yuanyang said this idea, before Li Wanzhen could express her position, Su Yan expressed her doubts next to her: "Dad, why can't we open a shop to sell charcoal-grilled oysters ourselves?" ”

Su Yuanyang was stunned for a moment, and Su Yan continued: "That day in the town, didn't Dad also want to open a store?" ”

One day before the Chinese New Year, when Su Yuanyang took Su Yan out of town to buy seafood, Su Yan suddenly wanted to eat grilled oysters when there was a place to eat at noon, he took her around roughly, it is true that no one is doing this business, and at that time he jokingly coaxed Su Yan to say that in the future, he would open a grilled oyster shop at home, so that she could eat enough.

At that time, Su Yuanyang was just joking, and he didn't pay attention to it, so he didn't expect his daughter to remember it in his heart. Now that I think about it, that's a pretty good idea! Su Yuanyang's eyes lit up and asked Li Wanzhen: "What do you think?" ”

Li Wanzhen hesitated a little: "It's not impossible. But you will definitely not be able to be busy with this matter alone, I have to be busy with the work in the field, and I can't be separated from Su Kai......"

"Wouldn't it be okay to rent out the land?" Su Yan had already thought of a solution, "Like Uncle Yuanhe's family." ”

A few days ago, Li Sumei came to gossip, saying that Chen Rihong of the Yuanhe family said all day long that he was not in good health and could not be tired, and rented most of the land to the villagers. This happened to be used by Su Yan.

It's a viable option. Li Wanzhen nodded: "When the time comes, Su Kai can take it directly in the store——"

Su Yan said: "My brother can go to kindergarten." ”

"Kindergarten?" Li Wanzhen heard this for the first time.

"Hmm." Su Yuanyang picked up the conversation, "When I went to town with Nannan that day, I saw that many very young children started to go to school. There is a special place called kindergarten, and you can go to kindergarten from the age of three to the time you go to elementary school. ”

After speaking, Su Yuanyang came to tease Su Yan again: "Is it okay to go to school with your younger brother when you arrive?" ”

Su Yan heard it, how can this work! Hurriedly excused: "I don't want to go, I will learn everything in kindergarten!" ”

This is a fact, Su Yuanyang also looked at the teaching content of the kindergarten that day. Because Su Yan usually follows him and is a curious baby, she has to ask about everything, and he also teaches her seriously, Su Yan. On the contrary, Su Kai usually likes to go out and play with other children at home, and he can't tell that he is a reading material.

"If you don't want to go, forget it." Su Yuanyang clapped, "When the store opens, send Su Kai to the kindergarten, it's time to take care of it." ”

Just do it, and the next day Su Yuanyang took Su Yan to the town to see the storefront.

There are actually only two serious commercial streets in the town, but they are very long, one Zizhu Street starts from the public station at the entrance to the market, and ends at the supply and marketing cooperative, and there is a seafood and agricultural products market in the middle. The flow of people on weekdays is average, but every second, fifth and eighth market period, there are clothes and all kinds of small goods put out for sale on the whole street, which is very lively. Another street is called Qingzhu Street, which also starts from the station and extends to connect the town's central primary school, central kindergarten, town middle school, and town police station, and at the end is a wasteland to be developed. There are all kinds of stationery sellers, small headdresses, shoe stores, grocery stores, car repairers, and a barber shop.

The father and daughter of the Su family tend to open the store on this street with a fixed flow of people, and there is an empty store with a rental notice on the diagonal opposite of the elementary school. The store has been emptied, about 50 square meters, I heard the owner said that it used to be a breakfast shop, so there is a decent kitchen in the back, the walls look like they have just been painted, it is very new, the floor is also cleaned very neatly, and when the tables, chairs and barbecue grills and other things are moved in, you can do business directly.

Su Yan took a fancy to it at a glance, and Su Dad obviously did too.

However, he was already handy at pretending to be calm, and although he had already made a decision in his heart, he still looked interested on the surface, and casually asked the shopkeeper how to calculate the rent.

"Three hundred dollars is the same price." The shopkeeper is also simply.

Su Yuanyang groaned, three hundred yuan is not cheap, no wonder the previous breakfast shop failed to continue. But this month's rent is not a problem for the snack shop he wants to open, but he is afraid that when the business is good, the owner will have to increase the rent again.

Su Yan also thought like this: "Dad, isn't that house on Zizhu Street only two hundred yuan?" ”

"yes!" Su Yuanyang hurriedly picked up the conversation, "This price is really not advantageous." Unless—"

"Unless, sign the lease for a longer period of time." Su Yan pondered, "At least ten years of signing will take place to recoup the difference." ”

Su Yuanyang nodded.

The shopkeeper didn't have much of an opinion, he had already moved to the city a few years earlier, and he rarely came back, and if it weren't for the early closure of the previous tenant, he wouldn't have come back for a few days to do this. He raised the rent to be about half as expensive as other homes, firstly, because his shop was in a prime location in the town and was the first choice for doing business; Second, he is just an office worker, and it is a hassle for him to run back twice in three days, so he wants to find a stable tenant who intends to do long-term business. It's just that ten years is too long, and seeing that the situation is getting better day by day, the rent will definitely increase day by day. He only agreed to sign for five years.

"Five years is too short." Su Yuanyang did not agree.

In fact, Su Yan felt that five years were about the same, the town was just her pedal, and her goal was the city. Five years of development was about the same as she expected.

Seeing that Su Yuanyang's attitude was very resolute, the shopkeeper didn't want to miss such a long-term tenant, so he talked about how everyone gave in later, and the lease was signed for eight years.

The owner of the contract has already prepared a ready-made one, and some of the terms can be signed with slight modifications according to the previously agreed content.

After signing the contract and getting the key, Su Yuanyang measured the dimensions of each location in the store, and immediately took Su Yan to the city to see the tables and chairs.

The snack shop does not need any luxurious decoration, and the whole is simple and bright. Su Yan referred to the kind of tables and chairs she had common in fast food restaurants in her previous life, fixed on the ground as one, with steel pipe brackets and a long fast dining table equipped with a fireproof board tabletop, to Su Yuanyang, Su Yuanyang also felt that this was better and easy to clean up, and then the color made the store paint a bright sea blue.

Then I went to order the sign of the snack shop. The name of the store was discussed early in the morning: it is called Su Ji charcoal grilled seafood. The ocean blue background is decorated with water droplets, and the characters are in black Song font. It looks very fresh.

I also ordered some large and small plates that were not made of iron and steel, food bags, garlic, seasonings, and small bottles for them.

In the end, I went to order a large piece of the kitchen, two grills and two hundred catties of charcoal.

Most of these things are not ready-made, and it takes a certain amount of time to order, so Su Yuanyang simply agreed with them to send them to Su Ji's address after a week. It just so happens that he should be able to clear the goods sent to the aquatic company in the next few days, and he plans to sort out the remaining oysters according to their size and maturity, so that it will be convenient to harvest them at that time.

The next day, the fishery company sent two boats, and sure enough, it was planned that the day would be over after the harvest. After this busy day, I was shocked at home at night: the aquatic products company has successively pulled away a total of 430,000 catties of oysters in the past two months! Plus the rough estimate of what is left now is at least 20,000 catties. In this way, the yield of oysters per mu is as high as 90,000 catties! In addition to the money on the day when he and his daughter-in-law bought things in the city a few years ago, he did not deposit in the bank, and later left 15,000 to return to the second and third children, plus the last five days of six boats of oyster goods, five boats of oyster loans deducted 50,000 yuan from the capital of oyster seedlings, and 10,000 yuan he set aside to open a store and pay wages later, and now several passbooks add up to 775,000 yuan......

The Su family and his wife were so excited that they didn't sleep much all night, and kept whispering.

This night, there was another person in the Su family who also fell asleep very late. Su Yan was also very excited to see the number in the passbook, in terms of the current price, this money is enough for their family to build a few five-story small buildings, and she also wants to build a house when she listens to her parents' conversation. However, she does not want to build a house in the village first. As soon as the Su family started to breed the second batch of oysters, they built a big house, doesn't it mean that they clearly told the people that their family made a lot of money raising oysters last year? Now most of the houses in the village are tiled-roofed, and only two foremen who are leading the team have built a two-story small building, and if her family builds a house at this time, the tree will not attract much discussion, and then her two aunts will definitely blow the pillow wind with her uncle, and then they will not know what moths will be made.

After another two days, the planting of 20 acres of oyster seedlings was completed, and Su Yuanyang paid the ten people. and paid Su Xingqun and Chen Wenyu half a month's salary in advance, so that they could feel at ease after five or six days of hard work.

Then taking advantage of the two days of leisure before the food store's ordered things were delivered, Su Yuanyang officially proposed this matter.

Of course, Su Yan, who has been paying attention to this matter, said her thoughts, Su Yuanyang really felt that it was inappropriate, but he felt that it was boring to make money and let the family live in a mud house, so the roof was still covered with straw poles, and when the fireworks were set off, they were always worried that the fireworks would burn if they fell on the roof......

Su Yan's eyes rolled, and the timing was just right: "Dad can buy a house in the town!" Anyway, after my brother goes to kindergarten, don't we all spend most of our time in town? ”

Su Yuanyang thought about it for a while: "Yes." Renting a house is not a long-term solution, and you have to spend a sum of money every month! ”

Su Yan nodded violently: "Yes, yes!" When the farm is harvested next year, it will be logical to build a house for the family. ”

"Do you even know the word logical?" Su Yuanyang looked at his daughter in surprise: "But your little abacus is playing well." "It's good, it's really in his heart.

Su Yuanyang took out his notepad and wrote it down. The next thing to talk about is to talk about the menu of the restaurant, you can't just sell charcoal-grilled oysters, that would be too monotonous, the number of oysters will not be enough to supply the next season's oyster harvest, not to mention the customer's taste. The most seafood in Haicheng is a lot of seafood, and many of them can be used for barbecue.

The couple and their daughter discussed for a long time, and in addition to oysters, shellfish such as scallops, sand white, red cockles, mussels, and clams were added to the menu, as well as freshwater fish such as grass carp and fish at relatively common prices. These contents on the menu, except for the oysters that the stall owner had seen in the city before, and wrote down the process, Su Yuanyang had never seen anyone roast other things, but the seasonings and things he wanted to use should be similar, and Li Wanzhen usually made good dishes, what shellfish with what was the best, she had the most right to speak, and it should be no problem to try a few more times at that time.

Anyway, in two days, those custom-made items will be delivered, and when the time comes to go out to receive them, I will buy them back and try them out before it's too late.
