Chapter 355: A Hot Little Business
On the first day of the fifth lunar month, auspicious, it should be opened.
Early in the morning, Lin Ruan took the dozen or so girls to the front of the new shop, and the signboard above the shop hung a red silk cloth, blocking the name of the signboard tightly.
Lin Ruan took out the key and handed it to Lin Chun'er: "Chun'er's shopkeeper, open the door." ”
The other girls giggled and coaxed.
Lin Chun'er was so excited that her hands trembled a little, she took the key and unlocked it, and as soon as she pushed the door open, she saw a row of cabinets on both sides in the middle of the shop.
The front of the cabinet is stretched flat with a thin white gauze curtain, leaving no gaps, which is to prevent flies and insects. The cabinet is divided into several parts with panes, and each part is a taste, which is convenient for customers to choose, and it is also convenient for the curtain to open and close at the back.
The curtain at the back is not sealed, but an iron bar is sewn at the bottom of the curtain to increase the weight, so that it will not be blown by the wind and prevent mosquitoes and dust from falling in, and it will look very clean.
Lin Ruan took Lin Chun'er and put the lo-mei she brought into the counter, and carefully told her what things to pay attention to.
Lin Chun'er listened very carefully, for fear that she would miss half a sentence.
Today is the first day of opening, and the people in Lin Chun'er's family, except for the ignorant children, other adults have come.
Lin Ruan saw that they all didn't know what to do in the store, so he said: "Uncle, aunt, you should wipe the doors and windows of this store first, the most important thing in the food business is to be clean, and the doors and windows in the back must be wiped every day, don't forget." ”
Lin Chun'er's family has always admired Lin Ruan, and the person Lin Ruan rescued when he went up the mountain was Lin Chun'er's brother who had not yet married. Lin Ruan opened his mouth and ordered, and the family quickly wrote it down, and then hurriedly got to work.
Lin Ruan smiled and said to Lin Chun'er, "Are you nervous?" ”
Lin Chun'er nodded, although she has been studying in the store for half a month, she is not inexperienced, but it is different in the end. After that, this is her own shop.
Lin Ruan smiled: "Take it easy, I will take you all day today." ”
Lin Chun'er bit her lip into a line and nodded: "Ah Ruan, thank you." ”
Half a month ago, how could she dare to think about this?
Lin Ruan smiled and patted her shoulder: "Don't say thank you, you will do a good job in the future, and when our scale is done, in the future, you can also open a branch, Qingzhou is full, let's go to other places to open it, go to Fucheng to open it, and when the time comes, let you be the same as me, the scenery is beautiful, and it is enviable." ”
Lin Chun'er listened to her words, and her heart was excited, and the other girls were the same, all with longing on their faces.
As soon as the auspicious time arrived, Lin Ruan asked Lin Chun'er's brother to set off firecrackers, and then Lin Ruan and Lin Chun'er stood in front of the store and unveiled the store together.
Lin Ruan is in Yulin County, but she is a very famous person, a little girl from a peasant family, who fought such a prosperous restaurant with her bare hands, and brought down the third son of Yao, and even heard that even the county order treated her politely. The county magistrate is the biggest official in their Yulin County, so whoever mentions Lin Ruan in Yulin County now has to sigh and admire.
Now that she stands in front of the new shop, it immediately attracts a lot of passers-by.
When it was almost time for people to come, Lin Ruan motioned to Lin Chun'er to pull down the red silk together, only to see the three words "Xiaoshiji" written in the middle of the signboard, and the word "Lin's" written in the upper right corner of the signboard.
After the unveiling, Lin Ruan bowed slightly to the crowd who came to join in the fun, and then said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, today is the big day for the opening of my Lin sisters' snack shop, and I invite you to come and cheer in the future." Opened today, all the food in the store is 20% off, if you consume one or two silver at a time, and then send a pound of vegetarian dishes, buy more and give more, there is no cap. ”
Saying that, Lin Ruan beckoned and asked Lin Hongyan to take a few other girls and walk to the front of the person with a tray, "These are some dishes in the store, please taste them, if it suits your taste, please come in and have a show." ”
The dishes prepared by Lin Ruan were all cut into small pieces that were just enough to eat, and a thin bamboo skewer was inserted on each piece, which was very convenient to eat.
Because there was Xunwei Ji and the roast duck restaurant in front, many people were very interested in Lin Ruan's things and squeezed forward to try them.
As a result, everyone who tried it poured into the store.
Lin Ruan took Lin Chun'er into the counter, tied a snow-white apron, tied a flower headscarf on his head to prevent his hair from falling into the dishes, and then put on a homemade mask of the same color, and began to entertain guests, take dishes, weigh, settle accounts, collect cash, and make change.
Lin Chun'er was the first time, and she was excited and nervous, at first, it was inevitable that she couldn't keep up with the rhythm, but seeing that Lin Ruan had been dealing with it calmly and orderly, and there was no panic at all, she tried to calm down and entertain guests like Lin Ruan.
Slowly, I got started.
Lin Ruan glanced at her approvingly, nodded slightly at her, and then continued to greet the next guest.
Lin Chun'er was affirmed, and her heart became more calm.
At the end of the morning, Lin Chun'er was so tired that her legs were trembling, but the smile on her face never stopped. Lin Chun'er's father, mother, brother and sister-in-law also smiled. This business is also too good, how much money do you have to earn at the end of this day?
The business in the afternoon was also hot, because the business was too good, and Lin Chun'er's brother went back to the village halfway to pull another trip.
It wasn't until the queen of heaven was dark that the snack shop was closed.
Lin Ruan asked Lin Chun'er to hold the box containing the silver and went to the house in the east of the city together.
Lin Zhong had already moved to Qingzhou City with Lin Han a few days ago, and now this house is occupied by those guys and maids in Lin Ruan's shop.
After arriving at the house, Lin Hongyan urged: "Chun'er, quickly pour out the silver, let's help count it together to see how much we earned today." ”
Lin Chun'er couldn't wait, opened the box, and poured it on the big table of Lin Ruan's house.
The crackling sound of copper coins was the most beautiful sound these girls had ever heard.
A large pile of copper coins was scattered on the table, and there were a few grains of silver mixed in it.
Everyone started together, helped to count, and in the final count, in addition to the two taels of silver change prepared at the beginning, there were more than ten taels of silver.
Lin Ruan looked at the purchase list and calculated the cost: "Excluding the cost of thirteen taels of silver, Chun'er's store earned one or two taels of silver today." ”
Suddenly, the girls were dumbfounded.
Lin Chun'er said in disbelief: "Ah Ruan, is there really a tael of silver?" ”
Lin Ruan smiled and nodded: "If you don't count wrong, it's one or two pieces of silver." This is still the profit after the twenty percent discount and the delivery of the food, if all the total price is calculated, at least it can be two or three hundred dollars more. Chun'er, congratulations, a good start. In the future, if you keep it well, the heat of the opening will pass, and you can earn at least half a tael of silver a day. I can earn at least one or twenty taels of silver a month. ”
