Chapter 260: Preparing for a New Shop
When Gu Xiaoyou returned to the breakfast shop, the group of carriages and horses had already eaten and drunk.
The boss of the carriage and horse shop was wiping his mouth with toilet paper, and when he saw Gu Xiaoyou, he greeted warmly: "Boss Gu, you are here." ”
Gu Xiaoyou greeted him and asked with a smile, "How is it?" Satisfying to eat? ”
"I'm so satisfied, there are so many breakfast styles in your shop, you should try it next time." The owner of the carriage and horse shop said with regret, as if he had missed 10,000 taels of gold last time.
"It's not too late to eat." Gu Xiaoyou smiled and poured him a cup of hawthorn tea to eliminate appetite.
After drinking a cup of tea, the owner of the carriage and horse shop said a few more polite words to Gu Xiaoyou, and then got up and stood up.
"I have eaten well with the guys, thank you Boss Gu for your hospitality."
As he spoke, the owner of the carriage and horse shop took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and put it on the table: "This is our food money." ”
"Okay, I'll have a treat." Gu Xiaoyou excused.
"It's all about business, so it's not good to take advantage of you, so let's give it at the next discount."
"Okay." Gu Xiaoyou readily agreed, handed it over to the bookkeeper for settlement, and instructed him to give the owner of the carriage and horse shop a seven-fold discount.
"What's this seven-fold?" The owner of the carriage and horse shop asked curiously.
"Oh, seven percent off is seventy percent." Seeing that the boss was still puzzled, Gu Xiaoyou scratched his head and explained: "To put it simply, it is better to say that one hundred taels of silver and seventy taels is seven folds." ”
"I see, it's fun." The boss of the carriage and horse shop showed a look of sudden realization: "I have learned new knowledge from Boss Gu, and I have really benefited a lot." ”
"I've opened my eyes to you, too." Gu Xiaoyou said politely.
"Boss Gu is too modest, by the way, this is the order I just wrote with my guys, and I ask you to bother to deliver food to us tomorrow." The owner of the carriage and horse shop took a piece of rice paper and handed it to Gu Xiaoyou.
Gu Xiaoyou unfolded the rice paper and saw that the guys in the carriage and horse shop had no less appetite than the young men in the academy, and the rice paper was full of the names of breakfast.
Seeing Gu Xiaoyou's surprised expression, the owner of the carriage and horse shop said with a smile: "To make you laugh, the shop is full of groups of young men, as the so-called half-sized children eat Lao Tzu to death, and the guys can eat very much." ”
"Understand, understand, understand." Gu Xiaoyou smiled and put away the order: "Tomorrow will be sent to the carriage and horse shop on time." ”
"Then please." The owner of the carriage and horse shop saw the salute and went away with his men in a hurry.
As soon as they left, the lobby was suddenly half empty, and Gu Xiaoyou gave the order paper to Zhou: "Well, at this rate, the car money will be earned back in a few days." ”
Zhou opened the list and looked at it, and immediately smiled, and the stone pressed in his heart was finally removed.
"You go to the handyman to buy ingredients, I have to arrange for two coachmen to deliver food." Gu Xiaoyou admonished, and then went to arrange the delivery of food.
She arranged for two coachmen who were most familiar with the route of the capital to be responsible for delivering meals to the carriage and horse shops and Xinhu Academy, and they delivered for more than ten days, with only a lot more orders, and even began to deliver evening meals.
With the food delivery car, the number of people who went to the food truck to report to Xinhu Academy every day gradually decreased, so Gu Xiaoyou arranged for them to go to the gate of other academies, and brought in new customers, and the other two food delivery cars also came in handy.
The cooks in the breakfast shop were completely busy, Gu Xiaoyou simply recruited apprentices for them, and the simple affairs were taken care of by the apprentices, and the burden of the cooks was instantly cleared a lot.
Of course, the apprentices also signed a contract, so Gu Xiaoyou could rest assured that they would be allowed in and out of the kitchen.
The breakfast shop's business was on the right track, and Gu Xiaoyou was able to get out of the breakfast shop and start preparing other restaurants.
Mu Zuo had finished repairing the other shops as early as seven days ago, and after Gu Xiaoyou inspected the house, he began to recruit new employees, and the guys and maids she trained for the first three days, and handed them over to the foreman of the breakfast shop to train.
She put all her mind on setting up a new shop and recruiting cooks by the way.
Fortunately, the eight chefs in the breakfast shop have their own connections and recommend some reliable people.
The trouble was that she couldn't train the cooks together like she did in the breakfast shop, because each of her shops sold different food and taught different things.
I had to divide the day into three parts, teaching the chef of the second shop in the morning, the cook of the third shop at noon, the cook of the fourth shop in the afternoon, and going home in the evening to learn through videos and constantly improve the recipes.
The days passed slowly, and the temperature became colder and colder day by day.
The sun slowly rises, bringing with it a slightly warmer temperature, dissolving the frost and fogging on the vegetation and ushering in a new day.
Gu Xiaoyou applied homemade creams on her face, although it was not as good as high-end brand cosmetics, but it was better than green and natural, not to mention that she had a good relationship with the nurses in the dermatology department back then and learned a lot of maintenance recipes.
In ancient times, I directly grabbed medicine in my own medical hall, and my skin was even better than in modern times.
Gu Xiaoyou touched his tender little face, and said beautifully: "It's really a youthful and invincible flower." ”
Zhixia, who was combing Gu Xiaoyou's hair, couldn't help but smile: "Miss, it's really interesting for you to talk." ”
"There's a lot more to be done." Gu Xiaoyou casually picked a hairpin and put it on his head: "Did I use the hand cream for you?" ”
"Yes, you see that the slave's hands are much more tender now." Zhixia stretched out his little hand to look at Gu Xiaoyou.
Gu Xiaoyou touched it a few times, and slapped the back of Zhixia's hand vigorously: "It's quite tender, and the voice is very crisp." ”
"Miss, what are you doing with slaves?" Zhixia innocently rubbed the back of his hands.
"It's your punishment for laughing at me, huh." Gu Xiaoyou raised her chin arrogantly and put on a sheep fur coat and went out.
Zhixia pouted, and followed Gu Xiaoyou out with a wilt.
Along the way to Lutan Anyang Street, Zhixia's little expression had been wilting and not very happy, Zhou poked Gu Xiaoyou's arm, and asked softly, "What's wrong with her?" Pouted all the way. ”
"I was educated in the morning." Gu Xiaoyou said lightly.
Zhixia heard it, and his mouth pouted even higher.
Until the carriage stopped, Zhixia was still sullen, and walked towards the paper art workshop with a puffed face.
Gu Xiaoyou looked at her aggrieved back, and shook her head funny: "Xiao Zhixia, stop." ”
"What does the young lady command?" Zhixia reluctantly stopped, blessed his body.
"Sample, just take a picture, and you will lose your temper with me, oh, the jasmine-flavored hand cream specially made for you." Gu Xiaoyou threw a small porcelain vase in the direction of Zhixia.
Zhixia hurriedly stretched out his hand to catch it, couldn't wait to open the cork and smell the smell, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss." ”
