Chapter 183
Dinh House.
"You said Song Liuli opened a restaurant by herself?"
"Yes," Liu's mother replied to Mrs. Ding's words, "It was opened in Duanyang that day, and the sound of firecrackers, gongs and drums was noisy." There are also a lot of people who go. ”
Mrs. Ding doesn't care about this anymore, since the opening of the new shop, what kind of big entertainment activities have been held, which shop is not full of guests on the first day, and only those who can keep it are considered capable.
"Do you know it's all there, what do you sell?"
"The old slave sent someone to take a look, but the guy who went there sold food that he had never seen before." Liu's mother said.
"Do you have fruit peels and cakes?" Mrs. Ding asked again.
"I don't have any fruit dancing, but I heard that there is a cream cake called it, which is somewhat similar to our cake." Liu's mother replied, "It's just that the price is much more expensive than our cake." ”
The cakes in Ding Kee Restaurant are expensive enough, and ordinary people will not eat them easily, and they are mainly bought by wealthy people in the city on weekdays. Song Liuli didn't know what to get, but it was more expensive than a cake, which was really beyond her means.
"Madame, don't worry too much, our Ding Ji is a decades-old shop, where can a yellow-haired girl open a restaurant at will." Liu's mother laughed.
Mrs. Ding nodded: "I'm not worried about the side, it's just that Shopkeeper Zhou actually went to be the shopkeeper for her, it seems that he has forgotten the master's kindness to him over the years." ”
"But what can I say, there are also those cooks who were driven out by Ding Ji, I heard that they also went to Song Ji, madam, you said, then Song Liuli picked up these remnants of the defeated generals, how much can she expect to do?"
"Hmm." Mrs. Ding nodded.
The cream cake in Song Kee Restaurant is very expensive, only a small piece of triangle, which is indeed unaffordable for ordinary people.
There are also those dim sum that look very good, all of them are extremely expensive, ordinary people who would have a convulsion and spend dozens of dollars to buy such a small piece of dim sum to eat, for them, Ding Ji two pennies can give half a catty of crispy fruit.
The cheapest is the fries, a pack only costs five cents, but you also have to see what ingredients are made of, right?
That's a potato, the top cheap dish, which cellar doesn't have a few big baskets, why do you have to sell a potato for five cents when you cut it into strips?
While it does taste good, for most people, it's just two words – it's not worth it!
It's been seven or eight days, and there are more people in the store, less to buy, and many people are here to ask if there is anything to try, which is really annoying.
"Second sister, why don't we lower the price a little." Sango's small face was full of sadness.
From top to bottom, from the proprietor to the shopkeeper to the master, after the first day of opening, they are all idle. Fortunately, I didn't rush to find a buddy, otherwise the big guys would have nothing to do, and it would be sad just to look at it.
"The things that have been sold in our restaurant these days are really counted on my fingers." Coral sighed.
Liuli shook his head: "The price has just opened, how can there be such a reason?" ”
"Let's just lower down for a while, and when the big guys like our food, we will raise it step by step?" Coral Proposal.
Liuli nodded approvingly: "It's also a method." ”
As soon as Coral was happy, he listened to his second sister's voice: "However, this method is easy to make Song Ji have a bad reputation, not to mention the slow effect, and it is easy to lose money in the early stage." ”
The coral's expression was visibly lost.
Shopkeeper Zhou saw something from Liuli's expression: "Didn't Erniang Mo already have an idea?" ”
Liuli smiled and said nothing, and Coral suddenly became excited again: "Second sister, if there is any way, tell me quickly." ”
"I really want to know?" Liuli sells off.
"Uh-huh." Coral nodded.
"Then come with me tomorrow, there are many places that need your help."
Coral didn't know why, but nodded in agreement.
On the second day, Ruri brought Coral to the Rouge Pavilion.
Although the smell of gunpowder between Liuli and Mrs. Ding was full of gunpowder, there was no direct confrontation in the end, and neither of them said anything on the surface.
Yes, the cooperation between Liuli and Rouge Pavilion is the same, and Wei Zi doesn't know anything, and still welcomes Liuli warmly.
In fact, Wei Zi has been making a living under Mrs. Ding for many years, and she has already seen through Mrs. Ding's personality, and knows that she will definitely not give up, but she also really likes Liuli, if possible, she is more willing to deal with people like Liuli, straightforward, and will not take the initiative to shadow people behind her back.
"Sister Wei's business is good today?" Ruri greeted her as she entered the door.
"Thanks to Erniang, I just sold two lipsticks." Wei Zi smiled, "I heard that Erniang opened a restaurant again?" Really. ”
"It's just a small fight," Liuli said, lifting the things in her hand and handing them to Wei Zi: "This is a drink from my restaurant, Sister Wei try it." ”
Liuli brought two cups of milk tea, one for Wei Zi and the other for Fandai.
Wei Zi happily took it: "So polite, shouldn't there be something to ask my sister for me?" After speaking, I took a sip of milk tea, only to feel that the entrance was mellow, sweet and silky, and I couldn't help but drink several sips in succession.
"Let my sister say, I really have something to trouble my sister." Liuli Road.
Wei Zi was joking casually, but he didn't expect Liuli to really have something, so he hurriedly put down the milk tea and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Liuli was no longer polite, and directly said her intention.
Wei Zi runs the largest rouge gouache shop in Xingping, and naturally has the opportunity to deal with the rich ladies of all sizes in the town.
Wei Zi listened to her intentions and said with a smile: "Erniang is really the right person to find me for this matter, most of the ladies of rich families in the town have come to my Rouge Pavilion to buy rouge." ”
Liuli said excitedly: "Please also ask Sister Wei to help introduce one or two." ”
Wei Zi smiled: "It's not difficult, but in fact, there is a better way." ”
"What's the method?" Ruri was curious.
"If you let them know that this lipstick was made by Erniang, you will ensure that they can't wait to take the initiative to get to know you."
Liuli was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Wei Zi was joking, so she also smiled: "Sister Wei, don't tease me." ”
Wei Zi finally drank the milk tea in the cup, pursed her lips and smiled: "Just for Erniang's delicious milk tea, I will also help you with this." She thought for a while, and said: "Three days later, the second lady of the Sun family made an appointment to come to me to get rouge, and she is also kind, when the time comes, Erniang, you come, and I will introduce you to each other." ”
Liuli happily agreed, and when she came back three days later, she also brought a food box with a few small and delicate pastries.
Soon, I saw a little lady dressed exquisitely, with thin eyebrows and big eyes, accompanied by the little girl, into the Rouge Pavilion.
"Second Miss Sun is here?" Wei Zi hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
Sun Wan bowed slightly: "Can the rouge I want arrive?" ”
Later, I'll go get it for the second lady, why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea and have some snacks.
There is a small place specially set up in the Rouge Pavilion, separated from the lobby outside by a beaded curtain, and there are tables and chairs and some refreshments inside, which is specially used to entertain the ladies of these rich and noble families.
Miss Sun Er has also been here before, and this time she is also familiar with the way to open the curtain and go in. Although she often comes to the Rouge Pavilion, the refreshments in it have never been touched, and she always feels that the food outside is not fine enough.
It was the same when she came in this time, but when Second Miss Sun inadvertently glanced at the table, she was immediately attracted to her gaze.
Today's small snacks are really different, in the past, they were stacked on a plate, but today they are a small plate and a small plate, and the contents are very different.
Not only are the colors colorful, but they are also made of delicate flowers and various textures, which are really beautiful.
There was a small spoon next to each small plate, and Sun Wan couldn't help but pick up the small spoon, wanting to taste this exquisite snack.
"Second Miss." Seeing this, the maid hurriedly said: "This thing outside is not clean, so don't eat it." ”
Sun Wan took a meal in her hand, but did not take it back, and said softly: "It's okay, it's rare to see such a delicate dim sum, so I only taste one bite." ”
After speaking, he took a bite and tasted it.
Then, another bite.
Another bite.
……
Until I finished eating a whole small snack, I still had some unfinished business.
"Second Miss......" The maid looked at her young lady a little speechless and complaining.
Sun Wan was slightly embarrassed, so she simply picked up the spoon and dug it again, and stuffed it directly into the maid's mouth: "You can taste it too, it's delicious." ”
Servant girl:......
was caught off guard by her own lady and stuffed a mouthful of food, and she could only eat.
Then, I ate it with my own lady.
"It's delicious." Sun Wan asked with a smile.
"Uh-huh!" The maid didn't care about speaking, only nodded vigorously.
To say that their Sun family is also one of the best families in Xingping, and their own Miss is Mrs. Sun's descendant, she has been pampered since she was a child, and she has been serving by Miss since she was a child.
It's a little similar to the cake at Ding Kee Restaurant, which Miss loved to eat a while ago, but the taste is much better than that.
The dim sum on this table was naturally brought by Liuli, and it was also placed here after discussing it with Wei Zi and the others. In fact, the rouge that Miss Sun Er wanted had already been prepared, and Wei Zite said that he would go and get it, just so that they could eat this snack.
The master and servant were immersed in the delicious taste of the pastries, and they did not notice that the shopkeeper had been taking the rouge for a long time.
Wei Zi estimated that it was almost time before he came out, and at this time, the second piece of dim sum was almost finished for the two of them, and when they saw the shopkeeper come out, they both blushed with shame, after all, eating dim sum outside like this is a very unseemly thing for ladies like them.
Wei Zi didn't seem to notice the abnormality of these two people, and came over with rouge: "I've asked the second lady to wait for a long time, take a look, but the color you want?" ”
Sun Wan looked at it and said, "That's it." After a pause, he added: "We didn't wait long, the refreshments prepared by Shopkeeper Wei today are different from the past." ”
When the words fell, the girl next to her took out her purse with great discernment.
Wei Zi took the silver coin and said with a smile: "Can it meet Miss Sun's appetite?" A sister of mine made it and sent it to me, and I put them here to entertain your guests. ”
"Shopkeeper Wei's sister is really skilled." Miss Sun Er praised and wanted to say something, but opened her mouth but didn't speak.
The maid has followed Sun Wan for many years, so she naturally knows what her young lady thinks, and she must be very fond of this snack, and wants to buy some, or invite someone to make some at home.
Unexpectedly, Wei Zi listened to Sun Wan's words, but opened her mouth first: "If the second lady likes it, the recently opened Song Ji restaurant will sell it, and you can send someone to buy it and eat it." ”
"Song Kee Restaurant?"
"Yes, it was also opened by my sister, and it just so happens that she is here today, if I introduce you to you, it will be convenient to find her if you buy anything in the future."
Wei Zi said, without waiting for Miss Sun Er's answer, she quickly turned around and went out.
Sun Wan didn't have time to say anything, so she had to wait where she was.
After a while, Wei Zi came with Liuli and introduced the two parties, Sun Wan was really kind, and greeted each other with Liuli very gently.
"Seeing that my sister is not very old, she actually opened a restaurant?"
Liuli smiled: "It's just for fun, just a short walk east from here, it's called Song Ji Restaurant." ”
"That's good, in the future, my young lady wants to eat this kind of snack, so I will go to your restaurant and buy it." The maid was visibly pleased.
Sun Wan also said: "My sister's craftsmanship is so good, and the business of the restaurant must be very good." ”
Liuli smiled and didn't explain, a young lady like Sun Wan, who grew up pampered, probably can't understand the hardships of ordinary people's pennies broken in half, and naturally she doesn't care how much money will cost such a delicious pastry.
"Borrowing the auspicious words of the sister of the Sun family", Liuli said, "In fact, in addition to selling these ready-made snacks, my restaurant can also provide customized services, for example, if the lady wants to hold a flower banquet or the like, we have all done a good job of sending it to ensure that the arrangement is thoughtful, both exquisite and beautiful." ”
This is the plan of the glass.
At this time, there is no pastime, the women are often bored at home, and there is no entertainment, the ladies of the big families like to get together, today I will hold a peach blossom banquet, tomorrow she will hold an osmanthus banquet, there are always various reasons throughout the year, but it is a bit like the party of the previous life.
What Liuli wants to do is to undertake the food of these flower banquets and provide comprehensive customized services.
"If Miss wants to hold a flower banquet, you can come to me." Liuli was a little eager to try.
"It's a novelty, but if it can be done well, it can save a lot of effort." Sun Wan couldn't help but say.
Liuli was overjoyed, and said busily: "Miss don't worry, all our dim sum will be eaten according to the preferences of the host and guests, and before the banquet is really placed, it will all be given to Miss to taste until you are satisfied." ”
Sun Wan nodded while listening, the more Liuli spoke, the more excited she became, and Sun Wan listened patiently.
It wasn't until Liuli finished speaking that the maid couldn't wait to speak: "But my young lady doesn't plan to hold a flower banquet today." ”
Glass:......
"If you want to do it in the future, you can also come to Song Kee Restaurant to find me." She had to say this.
