Chapter 30: Hot Pot Restaurant

Everything she envisioned was to be on par with the old Chongqing hot pot, and after buying some things, she picked out a few red lanterns, paid some more hard-earned money to find someone to help her deliver the things to the new shop.

Then Lin Huiru found a blacksmith shop and prepared to customize a few pots that were the same as Chongqing hot pot.

She drew an extremely sloppy drawing, and after some comparison, the blacksmith nodded as if he didn't understand, but the price of this thing was beyond Lin Huiru's imagination.

"Since you have to be in a hurry, this pot still needs to be rushed, and one must be counted according to 200 Wen." The blacksmith stretched out two fingers, he was so strong that few people dared to bargain with him.

Lin Huiru couldn't help but feel a heartache, she had a lot of things to prepare, and a few pots cost her two taels of silver, which was not worth it.

"I'm going to make ten, one hundred!" In fact, Lin Huiru had never killed the price, and this bold asking price also made the blacksmith stunned.

"One hundred wen is not enough for my materials, no, no." The blacksmith was amused by her, and waved his hand to drive people away.

Lin Huiru hurriedly changed his words, "Then, one hundred and fifty taels!" I will set ten mouths, and if there is still a need in the future, I will come to you again. ”

In fact, the blacksmith knew very well how much water there was in the blacksmith shop, and he was also a person who had eaten Lin Huiru's skewers, so he couldn't help but think that if he could make more of this thing, he would also make a lot of money. But in order to continue the play, the blacksmith could only make it difficult to agree, "Okay, then you can keep the silver and come back to get it the day after tomorrow." ”

Lin Huiru frowned, and only put down five hundred Wen, "This is a deposit, and when I can get what I want, I will give the remaining one or two pieces of silver." ”

The blacksmith didn't expect her to be so vigilant, but this matter was also taken care of, so he sighed and waved his hand to send Lin Huiru away.

The next thing left is to promote her shop, most of the people in this town who can afford to eat know that there are skewers, and she wants to promote the address, so she can only refer to the current small advertisement.

But there will be no printer, and if she wants to post it all over the streets, she will probably have to write for a while.

By the time Lin Huiru went home, it was already completely dark, the Lin family's parents and Xu Ziqiao had not moved their chopsticks, and the meal was still hot, obviously just waiting for her.

"What did you go out for? Why did you come back so late?" Qi Lotus gave Lin Huiru a bowl of rice and asked casually.

Lin Huiru didn't hide it, she first drank a sip of hot water to moisten her throat, "I went to talk to a shopkeeper about business, used his shop to sell skewers, today I went to prepare things, and I can open the store in three days." ”

"Why do you want to get a shop? But you have to spend a lot of silver, do you have enough money there? Your father and I still have some savings..."Qi Lotus didn't stop her, but was worried that her appearance of not having enough money would bring Lin Huiru a lot of warmth.

Lin Huiru was just about to speak, but she felt a warmth in her hand, she lowered her head, and saw Xu Ziqiao break her hand and put a heavy two taels of silver in her palm.

"This is the money I have copied for the past two days, and you can use it first." Xu Ziqiao Wen smiled and spoke, and the scholarly temperament around him was extremely gentle at this time.

"Don't worry, I have enough money here, and you need a lot of money to go to Beijing to catch the exam, so you can keep it first." Lin Huiru couldn't help but sigh that Xu Ziqiao could be regarded as a gentle and considerate man, but it was a pity that her heart was not here.

Xu Ziqiao was a little reluctant to see the silver being stuffed back, but if Lin Huiru didn't accept it, he couldn't discuss these things with Lin Huiru in front of the Lin family's parents, so he had to give up.

"You can rest assured, I have considered everything I want to do for my own livelihood, but there are some things that I still need your help with." Lin Huiru has a clear distinction between public and private in this matter, she has selfish intentions, but not gold and silver.

The current Lin family's parents rely on Lin Huiru to live, so they naturally regard Lin Huiru as their backbone, and seeing that they can help, Lin Qing and Qi Lotus show a smile of relief, as long as their capable daughter does not dislike them.

"What do you say?" Lin Qing put down the dishes and chopsticks, and Zhengse looked over.

"Although the current money is enough, it may not be enough to invite people, and my base material is a secret recipe, so I am afraid that it will be leaked out, so can I ask you to help me for a month or two?" Lin Huiru looked at Lin Qing and Qi Lotus with some embarrassment, in her heart, she had already regarded Lin Qing and Qi Lotus as her biological father and mother, and it was still a little difficult to talk about letting her parents help with the work.

But this kind of work of washing and picking vegetables is simply easy for the environment of the Lin family's parents, not to mention helping their daughter, and almost agreed with a smile, "Okay, what is this, I don't need you to say that I want to ask if I can help." ”

"Then I'm going to work hard for you." Lin Huiru laughed and had two shallow dimples on his face, which was very cute.

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Xu Ziqiao waited for the opportunity to speak, faintly eager to try, for him, Lin Huiru is like a fan, the more he continues to explore, the more he can find her lovely pasta.

Lin Huiru nodded unceremoniously, "The location of that place is not obvious, so I need to do something and post it on the streets and alleys to guide me, my parents are illiterate, I need your help if I want to do more, or do you know someone who also makes money by copying books, I can pay the salary." ”

"You don't have to be polite to me, tell me what you want, and I'll make it for you as soon as possible, okay?" Xu Ziqiao was full of interest, this kind of advertising does not exist in this era, and he feels that his wife is extremely smart.

"I'll go back to the room later and draw one, and I'll trouble you then." Lin Huiru didn't be polite to him this time, after all, it was really a small treasury tight.

After dinner, Lin Huiru thought about it in the room for a long time behind closed doors, and finally drew an advertisement that looked like a modern supermarket sale before late at night.

Lin Huiru knocked on Xu Ziqiao's door, he would only wear underwear to read on the bed, Lin Huiru had never been to the swimming pool, not to mention that Xu Ziqiao was also tightly wrapped in only underwear, she was not shy, and went directly into the door to explain to him.

"Just use red as a base and copy it according to my slogan, I think it should be easier than the book you copied, or a free meal, isn't it more cost-effective?" Lin Huiru asked seriously, even if some people ate with their bellies open, she might not have spent more than 100 yuan, but Xu Ziqiao was only two taels of silver in the past three or four days, and she really had a headache.

Xu Ziqiao shook his head, "No need, leave this matter to me, don't worry, I will do it for you." ”
