Chapter Ninety-Four: Show Off

"Haha, Brother Xu has won the prize." Duran smiled proudly, as a senior chef, the dishes she made could be praised by everyone, and she was also happy in her heart.

Gu Youan helped his grandfather fill a small bowl, and handed it to his grandfather while not forgetting to praise Duran: "Brother Xue, Brother Xu, Duran's cooking is so delicious, and my grandfather and I have a good mouth every day." ”

Everyone could clearly hear this tone, and he was deliberately showing off that he was blessed and could eat the food cooked by Duran all the time.

Grandpa Gu took the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a smile: "You'an can marry Lan Lan, this is a blessing from the third generation." ”

Duran smiled wryly, do grandpa and Gu Youan need to hint to everyone that they are Gu Youan's mother? Everybody knows that, okay.

Gu Youan deliberately glanced at Xu Hening, and the smile on his face became even stronger.

Xu Hening noticed this gaze and smiled unnaturally, Gu Youan was clearly guarding himself, but so what? He and Duran are business partners, and there will be more opportunities to get along in the future, and he can't guard against it for a while.

At this time, Xue Yan slapped his mouth a few times, and said with satisfaction: "Well, Mrs. Gu is really a superb cook." ”

Mrs. Gu? Xu Hening was stunned for a moment, if he was not mistaken, Xue Yan had directly called her Du Lan before, glanced at Xue Yan with the corner of his eye, and suddenly understood that he was deliberately helping Gu Youan warn himself.

Xu Hening retracted his gaze, and suddenly felt a trace of loss in his heart, compared with Gu Youan's life experience, he was indeed not qualified to covet it.

Duran repeatedly beckoned everyone to eat it while it was hot, but a plan was hatched in her heart, she promised to teach the villagers how to make sweet and sour fish, and then she would make tomato sauce to sell to the people who made sweet and sour fish. But the problem is that the development of new things requires a process, and sweet and sour fish was first taught in Shanwa Village, and it is impossible to predict how long it will take to really popularize it on the people's dinner tables.

So tomato sauce, sweet and sour fish, these can only earn a pocket money.

What's more, her best cooking skills can't be buried, she wants to open a chain restaurant like her previous life to carry forward her cooking skills.

However, she has limited funds on hand and the cost of opening a restaurant is too large, so after thinking about it, it is safer for her to open a delicatessen first, and it is not too late to open a restaurant when she has sufficient funds in her hand.

"Brother Xu, I want to open a deli shop, I wonder if you have a way to do this?" Duran personally sandwiched a dish for him and slowly expressed his thoughts.

"Deli?" Xu Hening looked at her suspiciously.

Gu Youan's eyes were even more puzzled, why did she think of opening a deli shop?

Duran joked confidently, "In order to make a lot of money, otherwise how much can you earn by just providing sweet and sour fish to Wuwei Zhai." ”

Everyone has confidence in her cooking skills, but it is much more tiring to open a delicatessen.

Seeing her confident appearance, Xu Hening nodded appreciatively, Duran was born to be a piece of business material, she would not be willing to be a little peasant woman, and sure enough, she came up with a new idea.

Seeing Xu Hening nodding, Duran said confidently: "Everyone has tasted the dishes I cooked, and you also have a spectrum in your heart about what it tastes like." I open a small deli shop, mainly selling some braised meat, such as sauced pork trotters, braised duck neck, spicy duck head, chicken wings, chicken feet, in addition to these I have a lot of recipes, which are more suitable for buying and eating directly at home. ”

I don't know why, even if I haven't tasted it, as long as Du Lan reports the names of the dishes one by one, everyone present can't help but drool, and Gu Youan looks at his lady with admiration.

"No matter what the lady does, I will support you unconditionally."

Duran glanced at him with satisfaction, Xu was proud, stretched out his little hand and pinched his chin, and joked: "Good, follow the lady to have meat to eat......"

Gu Youan didn't dodge either, and smiled more and more dotingly: "It's also willing to drink soup with the lady." ”

Old Man Gu coughed a few times embarrassedly, Du Lan, this kid is good, but his manners and deeds are too rude, and he didn't pay attention to it this time, and he became frivolous again.

Xue Yan looked at the two of them funny, and couldn't help but praise: "Look, this is the intimate couple." ”

Xu Hening couldn't help but quip: "Hey, in front of so many pairs of our eyes, can you two pay attention to it, we are all bachelors, do you look sour." ”

Du Lan slowly withdrew his hand and turned his head with a smile: "What Brother Xu said is that after the change, I will meet good girls and introduce them to you one by one." ”

"Yes, the lady's sisters are also very good, I think the two eldest brothers can get to know each other if they are interested." Gu Youan smiled and agreed, he didn't want the people present to beat his mother's idea.

"Don't pull the red line for me, I'm picky." Xue Yan ate and drank regardless of his image, and at the same time took himself out vaguely.

Duran glared at Gu Youan unhappily and asked him unnaturally, "I...... Which sister is good? ”

This kid actually thinks that there are women better than her in his eyes? I can't say what I feel in my heart, it's like it's sour and uncomfortable.

Gu Youan smiled and said: "Uncle's family, Du Mi, I look at the one who is quite compatible with Brother Xu, a talented woman." ”

Xu Hening waved his hand in panic: "Don't beat me, I'm more critical than Brother Xue." ”

"Haha, no wonder you two have been single, I think you deserve it!" Duran couldn't help laughing, this ancient man had three wives and four concubines, and they were all magnificent, no wonder there was not even a girl around, it turned out that they were too picky, and few women could enter their eyes.

Although Duran laughed at the two of them, they still turned a deaf ear to eat and drink on their own.

The joke couldn't continue, so Duran had to turn back to the topic and ask with a serious face: "Brother Xu, tell me, which area has a cheap shop?" ”

"You plan to make cooked food, you see, generally go to the vegetable market and plan to buy raw food and go back to make it and eat it. And you make cooked food, and you can't be in a busy shopping street. In my opinion, it is more appropriate to find a street where many wealthy families live nearby. ”

Duran nodded thoughtfully, he had considered all these things he said, but the rent of those lots was too expensive.

"Brother Xu, I understand what you said, but I just started a business, and I don't have enough funds in my hand, so I'm looking for you to ask, is there a suitable price, a good location, just empty or subleased shops, preferably facing the street, with a wide source of people."

"Okay, this is easy to do, Baoqing, you write down what Mrs. Gu said, and go back and send someone to find it."

Xu Baoqing nodded, "Yes, eldest son." ”

Xu Hening looked at Du Lan again, and hesitated for a moment before speaking: "It's just that I have a small request." ”

"Huh?" Du Lan and Gu Youan were stunned, Brother Xu has always been very talkative, "Brother Xu has any concerns, just say it." ”

"I don't have any worries, I can trust Duran's cooking, and I want to say that I'm going to take a stake in your delicatessen."

"Huh?" Duran was surprised, "Brother Xu, you're not kidding, are you?" You are the eldest son of the Xu family, a wealthy businessman in Luo'an City, who is in charge of most of the Xu family's business, and you actually want to invest in my small delicatessen shop? ”

Xu Hening glanced at Duran, then at Gu Youan, and said solemnly: "I have a hunch that Duran's cooked food shop will develop into a restaurant that is more famous than Wuwei Zhai in the near future. ”

"Brother Xu, you said this too early. I know that you are good for us, and I want to help us subsidize a sum of money, but where can my little deli shop afford to support your big Buddha? You are doing this small business with me, and you are not afraid of losing your identity? ”

Xu Hening smiled lightly and shook his head.

Gu Youan laughed: "Brother Xu wants to cooperate with us, why don't we do it?" With Brother Xu's name in it, I believe that many people will come here, and when the time comes, with Brother Xu's light, our business will definitely be booming. ”

Xu Hening looked at Gu Youan with appreciation: "It seems that Brother Gu is even more of a business material, and the calculation has come to me, hahaha......"

"Then Brother Xu, tell me, what is your shareholding method?" Since he is willing, he is not as beautiful as an adult.

"When I find a good shop, we'll discuss it." As he spoke, Xu Hening picked up a glass of wine and saluted everyone.

Gu Youan was the first to raise his glass, and then everyone raised their glasses to drink, and when they were happy, Duran talked about his cooking wine business again.

"The cooking wine bottle that Brother Xu ordered someone to make sells very well and is suitable for selling to retail investors. But I have another idea. With that, Duran sold a pass.

As soon as he heard this, Xu Hening immediately became interested, "Oh? You say come and hear it. ”

"Our cooking wine, if sold by a single bottle, can indeed be sold at a high price, and the profit is quite considerable. But what if we sold it differently? We thought, if my cooking wine opens up the market, who will be most willing to buy it? ”

Everyone listened to Du Lan's good intentions, and quickly thought of the restaurants and the kitchens of those wealthy families, where hundreds of people open their mouths to eat every day, and the amount used must be not a few.

Xu Hening's eyes shone brightly after hearing this: "What does Duran mean, can we still talk about selling cylinders?" ”

On the cylinder? Duran couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, wouldn't it seem cheap when talking about the cylinder? Although it is based on the wholesale price, it is necessary to keep the profit.

"Brother Xu really likes to joke, our cooking wine has not yet opened the market, even if the market is opened, you just want to cook, and you only use a big spoon for a plate. There are hundreds of plates a day, thousands of plates, and it's just one jar or two jars, although we want to make money, we can't eat it into a big fat man. ”

When Xu Hening heard this, he smiled awkwardly, "I'm only good at trading, and I don't know much about the dosage and market of seasonings. ”

"Brother Xu is right, interlaced like a mountain, I know that Brother Xu's wine is sent to the restaurant one by one. I also have to consider how much to set for the wine jar, for example, Brother Xu went to the back kitchen of Wuwei Zhai to investigate the amount of various spices, so that I have a fixed number in my heart. Duran said with a smile.
