Chapter 21 Business Starts and Orphans Again
And the popularity of the monthly meal was unusually hot, and the students who came to stay basically set the medium or low meal, and the high-end meal was not popular, and the number of people who ordered it was relatively small.
There are also hired mothers to cook, but the taste of the cooking is not as good as the Hakka inn, and the price is not low, calculated, a day is about forty Wen, although the amount is too much, but it is not delicious, there is only a single dish, if you want a few dishes, you can't finish eating and waste. So, the students calculated, in fact, even if it is a high-class meal, it is more cost-effective, even if it is a low-class meal, it is okay, it tastes good, and after eating for a while, everyone can also feel different, because the meals in the Hakka inn are not casually matched, such as soup, there are some wolfberry angelica and the like, which are used to replenish the body, and the short time can not be found, and the long time can be noticed.
The most surprising thing is that the most monthly meal is actually the shop in front of the street, basically a family of three, will order two meals, and then go to buy two steamed buns by themselves, in this way, set two high-end meals, than three low-grade meals are cost-effective, the food is good, and the Hakka inn gives enough.
Even if it is a family of two, it is enough to order a high-end meal and a low-end meal, and such a ratio is also very cost-effective.
Basically, when this month's meal comes out, there is a family that has eaten here, and after consulting what the monthly meal is about, it will be ordered, and if there is a set, if you think it is good, you will recommend it to others, so there are more and more people who have set the monthly meal in the Hakka inn, until a month later, 80% of the businesses have ordered the meal.
There are also some people who don't want this, and will order two side dishes, and the Hakka inn is also responsible for sending them over, with a food box. It's not far away, the delivery speed is fast, and the meal won't be cold.
Occasionally, if you want to eat better, you will also call friends to come here for a meal, which is delicious and affordable, and the price is only medium, not expensive.
There are also some students who are more intelligent, and they order meals together, a few high-end, a few mid-range. A few low-grade ones, and then divide them evenly together, although this will be a little troublesome, but it is affordable and delicious, mainly the high-end meal and the whole meat dishes in the mid-range meal. is the most popular, and it is said that you have to smash the pot and sell iron to support a student. This is the case. It's true.
In addition to these, there are also people who have heard that the food in the Hakka inn is good, and they come to order a set for their children, and there are many students in the college who do not live here, but come here to order food. But because the college is far away, it is no longer warm to send it over, and the Hakka inn is not responsible for delivering food, and those who order food have to come here to eat. The students have no objection to this, who let them not have such a delicious meal near the school.
Because the capital is the capital, and the Gongyuan is here, so there are not many people from all over the country who come here to study, many of them are students of the upper middle and upper levels, even if it costs money, they will plan to do it, compared to their own cooking, make a mess, students live in Hakka inns It is a lot more convenient, first of all, the rent is not expensive, and three meals a day are cooked, secondly, here, the toilet is also clean and easy to use, it is a place to take a bath, there are also, it is still free, but this water bill also has to pay a little, clothes sheets, Don't worry, you won't wash it, will you? As long as you spend a reasonable price, the Hakka inn also undertakes the task of washing clothes and sheets, and the room will not be cleaned up? It doesn't matter, as long as it costs 20 yuan, it is fixed four to five times a month, and an old woman will come to clean it up and ensure that it is clean and tidy.
In this way, the students can study with more peace of mind, and the students who live here are full of praise for these services, which are much more convenient than before when they have to organize things by themselves and do a lot of trivial things, although it costs so much more money, but this money is used to study for students, it is very worthwhile.
Another thing is that the rooms here are so warm all day long, so they won't be unable to write or learn because of cold hands in winter.
In the Hakka inn in the capital, in addition to Zheng Si, there are two other people, Zheng Rong and Xiaoyun, the role of the two cooks, and they do not have contact with people outside. As for how much you can earn, it all depends on the ability of the old woman, in fact, this business is not difficult to do, but it is good to make money, if every yard is cleaned, then this old woman can earn more than 100 yuan a month, there are a total of thirteen yards, if you earn it together, then it is more than one or two silver a month, and the old woman does not have to make any effort, and the laundry work is also taken away by Mrs. Chen. The old woman has a family of three, except for one, she also has a daughter-in-law, and there is a grandson left to be fed at the very least, so Zheng Si looks pitiful, and feels that this old woman and her daughter-in-law are very honest, and this business is also contracted to them.
The monthly rent of the yard is this good, no need to be bedding or anything, and there is no need to clean the room, if you are not willing to clean the house, they can hire people, and some people are reluctant to pay these few pennies, clean them themselves, as for some others, such as daily necessities, they don't need to prepare the Hakka inn, so that there are fewer people needed.
In addition to the Hakka inn, on the side, Xiaoqing found an inconspicuous place to make a workshop, specializing in the production of various meatballs, the store is called the Hakka Meatball House, the meatballs made by the Hakka Inn are crispy and delicious, even the nearby neighbors will buy them to eat, and the price is good.
Some big restaurants also took the opportunity to book a menu with Hakka meatball restaurants, in order to meet their needs, the big restaurants are ordered with large meatballs, and each one, with a kind of meatballs, will not conflict with each other, everyone can still attract guests, and will not offend these restaurants and inns.
Ramen restaurants and fast food restaurants are all opened on the dock, the same as in Wuyang City, and next to each other, the business is also good, the dock here is bigger than before, of course, the price of buying it at that time is also higher, but it is true that the business is better.
Because it is winter, the business of these two shops is also very hot, and needless to say, the business of ramen restaurants is that people come and go every day to eat ramen, because there is soup in the ramen, and it is a cold winter. Eating a bowl of hot noodle soup is a pleasure, and this noodle also has some black pepper and other things that can make people heat, which is even more loved by everyone.
At the beginning, the fast food restaurant was like this, and the business was not as good as the ramen restaurant, but fortunately, it also changed that day, no longer doing the previous dishes, but asked Wang Ya for some dishes to put chili peppers to make, and people can sweat when they eat it, in those dishes. Generally, the same as the extremely spicy, a few ordinary spicy ones, and two or three non-spicy ones after the most spicy, but after trying the effect. I found that the non-spicy dishes were basically not ordered. After a day, I will specialize in spicy dishes. Also, the people who work on the dock are some men, and the taste will be relatively heavier, and because it is winter, they naturally like to eat spicy.
A total of four shops opened in a month, and the business of this shop was a little lukewarm at first. The rest of the time, it was very hot, the Hakka inn showed that the business was booming with all the rooms occupied, and the ramen restaurants and fast food restaurants were busy from morning to night every day. It also shows the boom of business, the balls made by the ball workshop every day are not enough to buy, and it is also extremely popular.
Although the manpower seems to be sufficient, but not enough at all, the boom of business in addition to bringing money, but also brought fatigue and tiredness, not long after, one day they raised this question, because of the large flow of customers in the capital, and the variety of vegetables, the high consumption capacity, resulting in, they have not been able to use the limited model to do business, mainly they are reluctant to push this business outward, this is not Wuyang City, Wuyang City kind of small place, really called good, that is, in addition to the Yuelai Inn and other inns, that is, a few of their Hakka stores, but here, the Hakka inn does not have this strength to do a limited amount for the time being, just kidding, you can't eat here, can't you go to other places to eat? Where is it necessary to hang on a tree?
Therefore, in order not to lose customers, everyone will do things quickly, from morning to night, at the beginning is okay, after a long time, naturally I can't stand it, and they have asked to add people in.
After hearing these opinions, Xiaoqing didn't get angry, after all, during this time, everyone's tiredness, Xiaoqing also saw it in his eyes, sighed for a while, and said, "You guys work hard first, I will tell Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang." Although he is in charge, Xiaoqing still has to inform the Wang family about the matter of adding people, especially if there are so many people.
Because the business is so good, these children live in the store, and they get up in the morning to do business, and they have to be busy until the evening before they can rest.
Xiaoqing quickly reacted to the Wang family and Wang Ya, and when Wang Ya heard this, she patted her head and said: "Oh, I forgot, Xiaoqing, there should be a slum here, let's go and see it in two days, find those orphans, train all the children, and then bring them out, and there will be a lot of more people in our big family in the future!" ”
Wang Ya patronized this, but forgot that this action was not ladylike at all, which attracted the attention of Mama Rong, who did not speak on her face, but made a note for Wang Ya in her heart, thinking that she would settle the account after waiting for a while.
Xiao Qing didn't have an opinion on this, but Xiao Qing raised a question and said, "But, if that's the case, it's not appropriate to let those children live here, right?" You should find another place. ”
Wang Ya also felt that it made sense, but what kind of place to find it, or buy another place to live, but Wang disagreed, and then buy a yard, and his family did not have so much money, in fact, Wang felt that there was nothing bad about living here.
Moreover, the Wang family felt that it would be better to buy some servants with a death deed to use, but Wang Ya was unwilling, and said: "Mother, just help those children, anyway, we are not raising them for nothing, and they can still earn us money in the future!" ”
The Wang family just thinks that their family, plus Xiaoqing has enough, people's hearts are biased, for example, Xiaoqing They have been with the Wang family for so long, and the Wang family really regards them as their own children, maybe a little bit, but it is already very good, but ordinary people may not be able to do this.
Xiaoqing and they are also content and grateful, but they are at peace with each other, and they get along very well, becoming a win-win situation, but they use family affection to influence them.
Now that there are more people, the Wang family is a little reluctant, and feels that there are a lot of people in the family, mainly because the Wang family has forgotten the tragic situation of seeing Xiaoqing for the first time, so she can be so indifferent, if she is allowed to see it again, she will definitely not have such a heart.
At this time, Mama Rong spoke. Said: "It's better to buy a Zhuangzi, Zhuangzi can produce crops, and the province's family business should all be bought from outside, and from time to time you can get some fresh living animals." You can also let the new kids live there. ”
At the beginning, upholding the belief in Mama Rong, Wang Ya and they really bought a Zhuangzi, and there were two hot springs in that Zhuangzi, which was really surprising, but the Zhuangzi was a little small, and there were few people in it. The land in the Zhuangzi is all wasteland, not because the people in the Zhuangzi do not act, but because the land does not know what the road is for, and the fertility of the land is particularly poor, even if it is painstaking. A tenth of the harvest is good, and many people are reluctant to grow in it. In time. This land also panicked, and most of the people in Zhuangzi relied on other jobs to produce it.
Wang Ya valued that piece of land, in fact, it was a saline-alkali land, and it was not possible to grow other fields, but it could grow cotton, and. There is a mountain in the Zhuangzi that is covered with mulberry trees, and you can pick mulberry fruits in the summer and the rest of the time. You can also raise silkworms, and the two hot springs are at the foot of the mountain, and I don't know how the road is formed, the surrounding is an open land, the people in the Zhuangzi don't know that this is a hot spring, but when the road is winter, even if it snows, it will never be cold here, they use water or something from here, in summer, they pick up water from the creek in front, this is a stream from the middle of the Zhuangzi divided into half large, half small, the stream of the stream is very clear, occasionally you can see the small fish in it swimming.
When looking at the stream, Wang Ya wanted to open a pond in Zhuangzi and raise some fish in it, which would be delicious in winter.
And at the top of the hill, there is a mountain spring, not big, small, but gurgling spring water, bending down, picking up a handful of water with your hands, with a little temperature in winter, what is even more surprising is that this spring water is very sweet.
The important thing is that although there is a mountain in Zhuangzi, this mountain is obviously not big, and it can be climbed up in half a day, and because the mulberry trees are planted all over the mountain, the traces of man-made are very heavy, and at the foot of the mountain in the south, there is also a small bamboo forest, and there are only some rabbits and pheasants in the whole mountain that are not dangerous wild things, like some tigers and the like, and I heard the people in the village say that there is not.
Because this land can not be planted at all, the owner who bought it at that time was pitted, since he got the Zhuangzi, this Zhuangzi has not been profitable, and he can't make ends meet, so the owner wants to sell this Zhuangzi, the price is very low, sold for a thousand taels, this is still because there are two hot springs in it, this owner also knows that some people like hot springs, and deliberately raised the price, one thousand taels, and this master only lost five hundred taels of silver.
When I bought the Zhuangzi, Wang Ya was still a little surprised, and was ready for heavy bleeding, and after Rong Mama explained, I realized that not all the land in the capital was expensive, only the ones near the center were the most expensive, and like the Zhuangzi that I bought, one was small in area, and the other was not producing crops, and they were not easy to deceive, at that time, the master reported three thousand taels, and also had this thought, where did I know that Lu Dao met an expert, and the killing almost made the master cry bitterly and did not plan to sell, In the end, it was sold with a loss of 500 taels of silver, and the owner was glad in his heart, otherwise this Zhuangzi was in his hands, and he would continue to let himself lose. And the whole Zhuangzi is also unable to make ends meet, and the price is naturally low.
Otherwise, such a Zhuangzi, if the area is the same, the normal will be 2,000 taels, if you don't look at the area, with a normal Zhuangzi, the area is half of this Zhuangzi, and the crops can still be produced, such a Zhuangzi will cost 5,000 taels, and ordinary people can't afford it.
Zhuangzi was bought, but it couldn't live in people, the residents inside were the original, Wang Ya they naturally couldn't drive these people out of Lu, if they went out, these people would have nowhere to go, they were originally people in Zhuangzi, this Zhuangzi is also their root, and they won't be so ruthless in Wang's family.
Looking at the clothes worn by these villagers, the house is about to fall when the wind blows, so that Wang Sheng and they all feel pitiful, just right, several shops are short of manpower, after confirming that these people are honest, they are all sent to the three shops, and when they get used to it, except for those chefs, the other children will go to the workshop to help, after all, this meatball recipe can not be leaked out, and the future will be talked about later, anyway, right now, since it can keep the secret for a while, keep it for a while, Isn't it.
However, at this time, Zhuangzi must not be able to live in people, and there is no way to build, such a cold weather, where is a good day for work, everything to be rebuilt can only wait until spring comes.
However, Xiaoqing's side has already found all the children with Wang Ya, these children's lives in the slum are even more miserable than Xiaoqing and their past, basically they are begging for a living, which makes people look very unbearable, and the capital is so big, not only a slum, but several, in each place, there are more than a dozen children, skinny, a boss with bulging eyes, looking a little scary.
When Wang Ya and Xiaoqing went to the first slum, and after finding the orphans in that place, they walked into the courtyard and looked at so many children, at that moment, their eyes were moist, and they thought for a moment that they were not glad that there were so many children, but they were sad how could there be so many orphans, and what a sin this is, it is such a body!
Xiaoqing couldn't help but turn her head and wipe the corners of her eyes, looking at the child who was pulling her over, looking at her, and asked in a crisp voice: "Big brother, didn't you say that if I brought you, you could bring us food?" ”
Xiaoqing couldn't help but squat down, touched the child's head, and almost said impulsively: "Okay, big brother will take it immediately!" ”
Fortunately, reason restrained Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing just squatted down and said to the child: "This, I want to ask this big sister, those foods were not bought by the big brother, but bought by the big sister." ”
The child glanced at Wang Ya timidly, Wang Ya listened to Xiaoqing's words, took a deep breath, and said, "Brother Xiaoqing, take out all the food!" ”
Doing this, in fact, is very simple, since Wang Ya wants to cultivate these children and give them a way out, then naturally let them know who they should be grateful for, even Xiaoqing is very agreeable to do this, although the Wang family is a little profitable, but it is not a real kindness? gives them the ability to survive, this is the real great good, and it is always divided by interests, and it will not make people feel burdened, but Xiaoqing also knows that if they are not kind, why bother to cultivate them, and even cultivate these orphans.
As a former beneficiary, Xiaoqing naturally doesn't want his life-saving benefactor to be bitten by these people because he saved people, so the best way is to buy people's hearts, which is easier to use than those other means, and it will not hurt the interests of these poor children, even if they are the same, which is why Xiaoqing agrees.
Today, the purpose of Wang Ya's coming is this, grace and power, for these children, what they want is not power, but grace can be bought.
Don't say that Wang Ya is cold-blooded, even such a poor child has to be calculated, in fact, this is just a win-win situation, otherwise, Wang Ya can hire some children with death deeds, why bother so hard, it's just that she has tasted the pain of being an orphan, give these children a way to live, by the way, she can make money, so that she can save more people, isn't it?
Xiaoqing took out all the buns in the car, and sure enough, these self-formed children would not be like Wang Ya's orphanage in her previous life, when they saw someone bringing delicious food, they would rush to the top, but looked at the biggest one sensibly, waiting for that person to share it with them.
Although it is said that sympathy for these children, after all, it is necessary to have a good character in order to make sympathy arise, so although Wang Ya is sad, seeing these children so sensible, she is also relieved, or that sentence, no one wants to save a white-eyed wolf, it doesn't matter if you are not grateful, she is worried that En will take revenge.
Now that there are more children, after all, they can't really live together like before. (To be continued......)
PS: Bow and thank you for the peace charm of leisurely afternoon tea!
Let everyone wait for a long time, 6,000 words, and the previous 3,000 words make up for yesterday.
