Chapter 194: Cha Fu
Since the opening of Xiyangyang Restaurant, it has been a full month. Yesterday, Fang Jie deliberately rushed back to the city to settle the accounts, although everyone saw the restaurant customers on weekdays, and they all vaguely guessed that the income must be rich, but as soon as the amount of net profit came out, everyone was still stunned.
The price of the roasted whole sheep is 18 taels of silver, 3 a day is 56 taels and 4, plus all kinds of meat skewers and other things, a day's income is more than 100 taels. After deducting all the raw materials and labor, there are still fifty taels left, and it is exactly more than 1,500 taels in January.
Last winter, Baiyunju was once popular in the city because of green vegetables. Even if the net profit in a month is only 1,000 taels, now this small meat skewer is extremely inconspicuous, and the sum of each one has such a huge profit, which is really unexpected by everyone.
Chen He was afraid that the news would make many colleagues red, and he was so happy that even if he was about to explode, his face still pretended to be plain. After he told Fang Jie, he took a hundred taels of silver to reward the whole restaurant, and the cooks and boys, large and small, made a small fortune according to their usual efforts, and they were very happy.
The curious young man stepped forward to inquire about how the restaurant's entry was compared to Baiyunju, and Chen He only said that it was slightly inferior.
Fang Jie didn't have so many worries, and thought about it when he thought about it, every time he counted the money, he smiled like a little mouse that had stolen cheese, which was extremely cute and funny. So he instructed Chen He to exchange the six hundred taels of dividends from the grass into ten taels of silver, which was as many as sixty, and the square box was full. Then he purchased some edible foods, and then rushed back to Nangou Village with a smile.
Sure enough, when Pu Cao saw the box full of white flowers and silver, and heard that she would be able to share so much every month in the future, she was so happy that she jumped and jumped with Fang Jie in her arms. You must know that this is her own private money, this is her confidence and back road, and it has nothing to do with the Zhang family.
Think about the time when I first arrived in Nangou Village, I lived in a broken shack, ate porridge with bud grain noodles, and if I wanted to put a potato, I had to go to someone's field to steal it, and I didn't have a penny of copper coins in my hand, how miserable and miserable it was. Now not to mention that she doesn't have to worry about food and clothing, she can still earn a huge amount of money of four hundred taels a month, which makes her want to scream with happiness.
Seeing Pucao so happy, Fang Jie was also smiling, and of course he stole a few fragrant kisses as a reward. The money that Pucao used to sell vegetables was replaced with silver bills and hidden in the kang cabinet. At this moment, I suddenly got a box, and after the joy was over, I was worried about how to hide it.
"You're so annoying, why did you bring back the silver bill? If it is better to exchange it for a silver ticket, it will be stuffed in any package. ”
Fang Jie kissed Pu Cao's lips angrily and funny, and scolded with a smile, "I don't know who it is, Fang Cai's eyes lit up with joy when he saw Yinzi, and it was not good to hide it at this time." No wonder Confucius often sighs, but women and villains are difficult to raise. ”
Pu Cao stuck out his tongue and said angrily, "No matter, if you bring the silver back, you are responsible for helping me hide it, if you lose a silver bill, I will settle accounts with you." ”
"Okay, okay, send me to the yard. With Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang here, even Jiang Yang's thieves can't take away a single bit. Fang Jie said as he picked up the silver box with one hand, led the grass around the back door with the other, and walked through the vegetable garden to his home.
Pu Cao thought about it again and again, but still couldn't hold back her curiosity, and asked in a low voice, "Do Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang know kung fu, I don't look at them like ordinary people." ”
Fang Jie raised his eyebrows, didn't hide it anymore, and responded simply, "There is an elder in Kyoto who I know well, who bought a big mountain outside Cuiluan City, and entrusted me to take care of it because he was worried that he would covet it, and Uncle Jiang and Aunt Jiang were also the helpers he sent to me. ”
"Oh, that's right." Pu Cao nodded, and the curiosity in her eyes not only did not weaken, but became more prosperous. What is there in the mountains, worthy of such attention from the big people in Beijing, is it a treasure? Gold mine?
A lot of things are like this, if you don't know anything about it, the most uncomfortable thing is that you don't know a lot, and the more you guess, the more curious and unbearable it is. Pu Cao's heart seemed to have a kitten scratching and scratching, wanting to ask carefully but was afraid that Fang Jie would be embarrassed, but he was panicked if he didn't ask, and finally had to look at Fang Jie with a pitiful face.
Fang Jie entered the house, put the silver box, turned his head and saw her like this, and couldn't help laughing. Pu Cao was annoyed and said angrily, "It's not you yet, you can say half of everything, which makes me extremely curious." ”
Fang Jie poured tea for her, and slowly explained the whole story, naturally he inevitably had to talk about the reason for his acquaintance with Prince Kang.
Pu Caoyuan was still worried that there was a hidden risk in this matter, but seeing that Fang Jie's expression was gloomy because he thought of his deceased mother, she immediately left them behind and dragged him around to find a place to hide the silver box.
Obviously, there is a dark compartment in the study and a large pine cabinet in the inner room, but Pucao is all discarded, so Fang Jie has to carry a pickaxe to accompany her to dig a pit in the corner of the house. After some tossing, Fang Jie was sweating profusely, his shirt was taken off, and his sleeves were rolled up, which was even more embarrassed than the old farmer in the field.
After the silver box was buried, Pu Cao pulled Fang Jie and stepped on the soil together. Fang Jie smiled helplessly, "In the future, I will keep it and remember to exchange the silver ticket for you every month, otherwise I will break my arm sooner or later." ”
Pu Cao giggled so much that she almost fell on her back, provoking Fang Jie to grab her, and the two of them burst into laughter.
Seven or eight days passed, and the lambs raised by the villagers grew like buds in the fields, and even the large leeks at the head of the village also bloomed small white flowers.
Pucao got up early and brought a group of little daughters-in-law to pick a basket of leek flowers, washed and dried, and then put them in a stone mortar, sprinkling fine salt and pounding it into a paste. At the end, it was put into a pottery jar and sealed, and then kept in a cool well.
The little daughters-in-law had been chattering about the use of this leek sauce before, and they were busy while laughing and laughing. After a while, the Fang family will have to buy it at the price of one or two silver per jar, and if the quality is not good, I am afraid that it will be returned. The little daughters-in-law immediately put up twelve points of spirit, and got busy carefully, and their cautious appearance made Pucao laugh.
On the second day, Pu Cao saw that the little daughters-in-law were already familiar with making leek sauce, so she let them go and took the two children into the city.
It turned out that the time was approaching the end of July, and Fang Jie decided to go to the two shops in Linxian County to take a look and check the account books by the way. And Sun Fuyin happened to entertain friends from afar, so he specially sent someone to tell Fang Jie to arrange the dishes.
Under the contradiction between the two sides, Pu Cao volunteered to help in the restaurant for a day, and by the way, he also went to see Zhang Guier and Shengzi in the school.
Although Pucao is a woman, she acts very measuredly, intelligently and does not like to be strong. handed over the restaurant to her, Fang Jie was the most relieved, so he instructed Chen He to get in the car and leave.
The fat cook in Baiyunju on the opposite side heard that the master was coming, and he ran over to ask for cooking skills.
Taking advantage of the lack of diners in the morning, Pu Cao went to the street to buy two boxes of snacks and some edible foods, and then took her two children to the school. Zhang Guier and Shengzi have been enrolled in school for more than a month, they eat well and live well, they talk and laugh with each other, and they are all scholars.
Pu Cao saw it in his eyes, and his heart was naturally happy, and he pulled them to ask about their homework and rest on weekdays, and they had to listen to the fact that tomorrow was the school exam, so they left the edible food early and took the two children back to the restaurant, so that Shengzi and Zhang Guier had more free time to warm their books.
The two children have a lot of play, and when they see a candy blower on the road, they run over to look around, and they have to pick two things when they see a small object seller. In this way, when I finally returned to the restaurant, it was almost noon.
Pu Cao entered the door and saw Chen Hezheng frowning and spinning all over the ground, so he guessed that there was something in the restaurant but it was delayed because of her late return, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Shopkeeper Chen, but there is a distinguished guest coming to the door?" If you need my help, just ask. ”
Chen He heard the movement, and suddenly turned his head to see that Pu Cao was back, and a touch of joy obviously flashed across his face, but then he seemed to think of something, and he was actually more bitter.
"Zhang Dongjia, you're back. Well... That, there's nothing going on in the building, you rest for a while, and the guests come to the door at night and ask you to help with the dishes. ”
Pu Cao was puzzled but didn't ask much, nodded with a smile and was just about to walk to the backyard, when he didn't want a young man to run over in a hurry, and shouted, "Shopkeeper, what should I do?" The eldest young master took a fancy to roast sheep again, so he had to roast one for him to eat immediately. The little one explained that he only roasted three a day, all of which were booked by the distinguished guests many days ago, and the eldest young master didn't believe it, and he had to raise his hand to beat people! ”
"What rudeness!" Chen He's face was also so angry that his face turned pale, and the eldest young master who didn't know where Pucao came from asked him, "The high-ranking families in this city all know the details of our restaurant, where did this eldest young master come from, isn't it easy to offend?" ”
Chen He sighed, thought about it and whispered, "Zhang Dongjia, the little one won't hide it from you." Just now, the old lady and the eldest young master in the capital came to the door, and our young master was not there, so the little one couldn't take them into the backyard. The eldest young master's temper has always been domineering, and the little one... I can't persuade you, I'm struggling to find our young master back. ”
Fang family father and son? A look of disgust flashed in Pu Cao's eyes, she had heard a lot of miserable things about his childhood from Fang Jie, and she hated this unsympathetic Master Fang and the domineering and incompetent Fang Dashao. originally thought that Fang Jie had left the Fang family, and the people of the Fang family had nothing to do with her in this life, so she didn't want them to have the face to come to the door.
You don't have to guess, this is definitely a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken, and if you don't have a good heart, you can't run and there is a plan.
"Shopkeeper Chen, you greet the front, I'll go over and take a look. How can I say that this restaurant also has forty percent of my shares, and it is not the turn of other family members to be powerful. ”
Pu Cao took the two children through the lobby and walked to the backyard as he spoke, Chen He couldn't rest assured, and finally called a young man to run away to report to the old shopkeeper Chen.
