(sixty-nine)

Zhang Qingting solved the matter of cloth. I put down the big stone in my heart, and my mood was extraordinarily comfortable.

When he arrived at Fang's house, Fang Dehai was grinding ingredients in the house with Fang Mingzhu. Once this old man quit drinking for a few days and started doing things seriously, all the demeanor of the year came out, and he was very decent.

Seeing Zhang Qingting coming, knowing that her shop had been cleaned up, she calculated the beef and mutton needed at the moment, and asked Zhang Qingting to prepare silver taels, so that she could pick the auspicious day of the zodiac for opening, and notify him in advance to go shopping together.

Zhang Qingting was very happy, and he looked through the old yellow calendar directly at his house, which was scheduled to open on August 22, five days later. Fang Dehai pointed out that he asked her to bring two small workers early a day in advance to accompany him to purchase.

Zhang Qingting just asked the two younger brothers to come forward to meet him, Fang Dehai glanced at the small body and was okay, so he only said, "They follow me, but they are all under my command, don't put the genealogy of the younger brother of the owner at that time, I don't have the time to mess around!" ”

"You can rest assured. It's up to you! Zhang Qingting made a package ticket, and the old man knew that Fang deliberately warned the two younger brothers cautiously in front of him, "You will follow Master Fang in the future, and you will do whatever he asks you to do." You are not allowed to do anything, especially what you are not allowed to touch, but you are not allowed to touch it! If you are lazy and slippery, you can blame me for turning my face and being ruthless! ”

Zhao Chengdong and Zhang Jinbao looked at each other, this errand is not easy to do, isn't it a slave? But Zhang Qingting's authority cannot be provoked, and the two of them should go down.

Regarding the shop signboard, Zhang Qingting humbly asked, Fang Dehai said, "I'm here to help you work, but I'm not selling it to you, you can't play our signboard." ”

It's stingy! Zhang Qingting thought to himself, I don't want to use your name yet! After a moment's thought, he asked, "Can I borrow the words on your plaque?" For example, just start a sentence and call it the Fresh Restaurant? Or is it a delicious meal? ”

Fang Dehai pondered for a while, "Let's call it Juewei Zhai!" You also know that there is nowhere to buy the spice of the ten miles with money, and I only have a little left here, and I will never take it out and use it. Without this taste, what is it called fresh? It's barely a taste, there is a gimmick, and it's easy for people to remember. ”

Zhang Qingting nodded and wrote it down. There are still medicinal herbs to grind here to make ingredients, Fang Dehai absolutely does not allow outsiders to interfere, it is useless to stay, so he got up and said goodbye.

Fang Mingzhu specially sent her out, and shyly wrote the last words to her, but there was nothing wrong with it. asked Zhang Qingting if he could teach her a few more words, Zhang Qingting casually wrote a five-character ancient poem underground to teach her, and promised to bring her a thousand words when he came over in a few days.

These two younger brothers are strange to see, one is strange and this little is still so motivated, and the second strange Zhang Qingting can actually write and memorize poems? The two of them were still thinking about whether it was with Zhao Xiucai, and they didn't have much suspicion.

When I went back to the store, Zhao Chengcai and Master Chen negotiated the matter of substitute shifts and came back.

When he heard that he was going to make a plaque, he reminded him again, "Then it's better to make another pair of hangings!" ”

That's right! Zhang Qingting hurriedly asked, "Then what is wrong with you?" ”

This is the first time that Zhang Qingting has asked him for his opinion seriously, Zhao Chengcai didn't dare to be sloppy, and pondered it.

Zhang Qingting was not idle, seeing that Zhao Yulan had already cut out Zhang Xiaodie and her own clothes, and was pointing at the clumsy Zhang Xiaodie to make clothes, she also cleaned her desk. Spread out the material and hurriedly began to tailor. Zhang Qingting cut a total of two sets, one was obviously for his own use, and the other was much shorter, everyone thought that she made it for Zhao Wang's family, so they didn't ask much.

Zhao Chengcai was moved in his heart, became more serious, and racked his brains to come up with a pair, "The delicious taste attracts guests from outside the clouds, and the fragrance attracts the immortals in the cave." ”

Not good. Zhang Qingting shook his head, "If it is like hanging outside the tavern, I am a roast shop." ”

That's right! Zhao Chengcai thought about it for a long time, and then came out with another one, "When you enter the store and smell the fragrance, you forget to return, and when you go out, you will think about it again." ”

It sounds pretty good, but Zhao Chengdong made an opinion, our aroma can be transmitted, how can we smell it when we enter the store? That's not fragrant, right?

Zhao Chengcai had an idea, and simply changed it to, "Smell the fragrance and stay, and want to come again after the aftertaste." ”

This is good! It's simple and interesting, and everyone understands it.

Zhang Qingting immediately made a decision, and asked the two younger brothers to find a shop to rush to make it, and then hire a car to carry the cloth back.

After packing up, there were no valuable items in the shop except for the guys who added them, and after closing the door, everyone followed the car back.

Moved the cloth back to Zhao Chengcai's house and put it neatly. Even Fan Zhang Qingting didn't let Zhao Yulan go, and the girls were busy and began to make new clothes.

As soon as Zhao Wang's family came back, Zhao Chengcai, after greeting Zhang Qingting, took the initiative to report the preparations for these businesses to the old lady, and opened the door for her to come and see these fabrics.

When Zhao Wangshi saw so many fabrics at first glance, he was overjoyed, but later he heard that it was all on credit, and he had to sell it to pay it back, so he began to worry again. Seeing that her daughter was making new clothes with all the materials, she began to nag that they would not live, and the money was not earned yet, what are you doing making such good clothes?

Zhao Yulan was greedy for new clothes in her heart, but when her mother said this, she didn't dare to answer, and lowered her head very unenergetically.

Zhao Chengcai hurriedly explained that this was because the material was not good, and he had to make a few appearances to attract customers, so Zhao Wang's family was slightly better. But he said, "It's better to sell it directly, why do you want people to wear it, and waste a few sets of money!" ”

"Mother, don't worry! The mother has a calculation in her heart, as long as she can sell these materials, not only will she not lose money. We've got some money to make! At that time, my mother said, the whole family has a new dress, don't worry about it! Besides, how can these garments be worn on a person when they are hung on the wall? Besides, my sister is such a big girl, and she doesn't have any decent clothes, and if she has cloth, it's not too much to make a whole body! Besides, she still has to wear this dress to go out to greet guests, and she is not presentable! If it's still like usual, if you go out, it's a joke, but it's still a joke for our old Zhao family! ”

Zhao Wang listened reasonably, so he stopped talking. Zhao Chengcai also pretended to be mysterious and flattered. "Mother not only made one for them, but also sewed one for you!"

Hearing that his daughter-in-law made clothes for herself, Zhao Wangshi smiled in his heart, but said, "Then she didn't measure my size, and it was not suitable for me when the time came, I don't like the color, I don't know yet!" ”

Seeing that her mother was in a good mood, Zhao Yulan couldn't help but answer, "Mother, sister-in-law is amazing!" Her movements in ripping fabrics and tailoring clothes there are so neat, like a habitual home. Here! You see, she drew a drawing for us, and the colors look so good, right? There's the flower she embroidered for me the other day, and you can see how evenly the stitches are, and it's much better than me! Sister-in-law must have seen your figure, and she is going to do it for you, so you will ask, even if it is a little inappropriate, change a few stitches! ”

Zhao Wangshi carefully looked at the corner of the embroidery piece, and was very satisfied in his heart, and finally said a slightly affirmative word, "I can't see it, this girl really has two hits!" ”

Since then, I have been waiting for new clothes wholeheartedly. But is Miss Zhang's new clothes made for her? Why don't these people think about it without using their brains?

After reporting the business, Zhao Chengcai talked about the fact that he was going to the yamen to help Master Chen take the shift.

Zhao Wangshi was not very happy to hear it, "It's not love, no matter how well you do, you have to return it to others in a few months, why make a wedding dress for others?" It's better to go somewhere to teach a private school, it is a long-term solution. ”

Zhao Chengcai was a little harsh when he heard it, and began to feel that the old lady who had always been wise and martial arts was not as knowledgeable as Zhang Qingting, but it was not easy to refute Zhang Qingting's words, for fear of causing contradictions, so he had to say that he couldn't find a suitable messenger for a while, so he would go there first to take the class, and he would be able to produce an extra one or two silver every month, although it was not long-term. But it's a benefit.

Zhao Wang's thought about it, but he still felt a loss, and muttered, "In this big year, he went back and left you to work, so he didn't say much?" ”

Zhao Chengcai thought to himself, I'm still giving it to others! How dare you accept his gifts? "It's not easy for people to get by, as long as you get acquainted, you can help say a few good words in front of the county lord in the future, and it's worth it." ”

Zhao Wang's pimple reluctantly agreed, and suddenly remembered another thing, "Chengcai, you don't read anymore, just take those boxes of books and sell them!" Isn't that son of the Li family on the other side of the door planning to enlighten, and asked me if your books are sold. If your books are placed at home and occupy a place and attract dust, and they are also eaten by insects and rats, it is better to sell them cleanly. ”

"Books are resolutely not sold!" Zhao Chengcai refused, and said in his heart that I plan to take the test next year, and I still have to buy books, how can I sell books? "Mother, I'm also a showman, and I don't have a book at home? If you can't sell it for two bucks, you're in charge! ”

Zhao Wang's family thought about it, so the matter was stopped.

The next day, there was nothing to do, Zhao Chengcai went to the yamen to report, and followed Master Chen to deal with some affairs first, and the public dealt with them.

This time he came in, Fang knew that what Zhang Qingting said was true. Although he is only a small master, he knows what a county master has to do. How to put pen to paper, how to judge the case, compared to the dead things in the books, this is a whole different world. Although the yamen is small, it has all kinds of organs, which really makes him gain a lot of knowledge.

Zhao Chengcai is both honest and diligent and inquisitive, although he doesn't get along like a fish in water, but he is not bad. He kept in mind Zhang Qingting's guidance, was cautious and humble, and kept his duty, but it made people feel more reliable and assured, and the yamen had a good impression of him and were very polite.

After a few days of busy work at home, on the appointed day, Zhang Qingting took a small burden early in the morning and took his two younger brothers to pick up Fang Dehai.

I saw that she first whispered a few words to Fang Mingzhu, who came out to open the door, and gave her the burden, and the little girl accepted it with a red face. The two younger brothers guessed that Ming'er would open, so they gave a gift to let the grandparents sell more strength.

When she went to buy vegetables, she didn't need her granddaughter to follow, she told her to continue grinding ingredients at home, and Fang Dehai took them to the market together.

This time, Miss Zhang no longer dislikes dirty and smelly, and honestly follows Fang Dehai to learn which part of the meat to pick is suitable for brine, and what kind of meat is good.

Fang Dehai said that he would only take her this once, and she would have to purchase it herself for the second time. I didn't buy it well, but I lost it myself, Zhang Qingting had to be very careful.

The old acquaintances looked at it strangely, and when they inquired again, Zhang Qingting did not pretend to be high, and told everyone generously that this girl is going to open a store to do business, and please take care of the neighbors in the future!

This is from a peer competitor to a big customer, and the big guys are competing to tie up. Zhang Qingting is also fine now, the same quality and the same quantity, the one with the lowest price wins! If you are interested in long-term cooperation, go back to her home to talk to her in detail!

Zhao Chengdong said smartly, "Sister-in-law, why don't you just let everyone quote here?" Isn't it good to pick the lowest? ”

Zhang Qingting glanced at him, when there are so many people, if you are really willing to shout the price? Even if you shout a low price, it won't last long, and it will attract envy. Although doing business is to be shrewd, it is also necessary not to be overly calculating, and it is still necessary to leave room for others.

She still remembers the sentence on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is convenient for herself to be convenient with others. If you really have to be like Boss Liu, it is estimated that the business will not last long. But in front of so many people, it's hard to explain, just say, "I have my own measure!" And he sent him away.

Zhao Chengdong didn't understand it, and he was a little unconvinced, but he just didn't talk about it well.

Fang Dehai glanced at him, didn't say much, bought all the things, and asked the two younger brothers to carry the chickens, ducks, fish and meat back to the shop. Zhang Qingting saw that there was nothing to do with her, so he went to work on other things first.

These two brothers are miserable! The more delicious it is, the more troublesome it is to make.

Especially for brine, it is only some pig intestines, pig ears, pork tripe and tripe and other parallel goods. To clean it up, it is really a meticulous and tedious hard work, a little bit of scrubbing the hairs to remove the blood, greasy and fishy. Those two have grown so big, but they really haven't done any of this, and if they wanted to eat at home, they would have stopped doing it! But this is business, and there is an overseer present, so he can only reluctantly frown and pinch his nose to deal with it, and he can't help but be dissatisfied with Zhang Qingting's plan to send them this job.

Fang Dehai was pointing fingers there, and when he saw that they were a little lazy and sloppy, he immediately beat them down mercilessly with a cane, and reprimanded loudly, "This is for people to eat, not wild food for dogs!" If you can't clean it up, it's all a mess, so let's do something! ”

Zhang Jinbao and Zhao Chengdong are both complaining, they knew that today, they would not come to do this work if they were killed!

Patience cleaned up these things according to the requirements, and Fang Dehai instructed them to pre-process some things. The pickled is pickled, the fried is fried.

They were busy in the back, and it didn't take long for Zhang Qingting to take back all the plaques and couplets that had been ordered, and hang them, which were still covered with red silk, waiting for them to be unveiled tomorrow morning.

Seeing that the small shop that he had watered with his hard work was already ready, and only owed the east wind, Zhang Qingting couldn't help but rejoice in his heart. Looking at these unfinished meats again, I think they are extremely cute.

The opening was going to open tomorrow, and she was excited and apprehensive in her heart, going around the store, repeatedly calculating in her mind what was missing.

Because the kitchen is small, it can only be used for baking and frying, so the large room of the original warehouse at the back of the store, now there are several large stoves and clay pots on one side to make brine, in order to prevent scalding, the front is separated by a fence, and a long case is placed on the opposite side, with dozens of iron hooks hanging on it, and there are also customized cabinets next to it, which are stored into and half.

The shop counter outside has been set up, and the long tables on the upper and lower floors are placed with all kinds of ingredients. On both sides of the long case, there are layers of mesh nailed, made into a small curtain, and the guests have to pick and open when they come, and close them if there are no guests. This is Fang Dehai's proposal to prevent mosquitoes and flies, which is very praised.

Behind the counter there was a long chopping board, kitchen knives were sharpened, two large stacks of brand-new oiled paper were neatly placed next to it, and the bundled fine hemp rope was also set on the shaft.

The treasurer who collects the money is located horizontally on the left side of the gate, and he must be in charge of the boundary. On the opposite side, there is already a large wine vat on the right, with a spoon and a funnel next to it, which are loose and sold. Then there are layers of shelves, and the bottom is a small jar of good wine, and the top is the cloth to be sold.

Zhang Qingting carefully checked it, and there was nothing wrong. But I felt that something was wrong, and after a closer look, I found that there was a problem.

Those cloths can't be put on the wine rack! At first, she didn't feel it, but now that the things are on the table, she feels that it is inappropriate to come in, if the guests buy food and wine, their hands are always a little greasy, how can they touch the cloth again, and it will be dirty if they touch it? Even if you go to tear the cloth yourself, it's not convenient, in case it falls into the drink, but both are ruined.

Where do you put the cloth?

It's absolutely impossible to get inside, but you can't help but let people see it. Zhang Qingting thought hard for a long time and came up with a good idea.

Mo Ruo added a shelf behind the counter of his cashier, put away the cloth, and then cut some narrow small cloth heads and hung them in front of the counter for the guests to touch. When there are guests who really want to buy it, they can just turn around and pull it directly!

There's no time to lose! It was too late to order, so she hurriedly prepared to find a furniture store.

When Fang Dehai heard about it, he also made a request, asking her to add two beds and bunks to the idle small ear room on the other side, which would be used as a resting place for people who would take a lunch break and watch the store at night in the future.

This is indeed reasonable, Zhang Qingting should go down and hurriedly go to do it together.

When she came back, Zhao Yulan came over to deliver the meal, and it was really a vegetable and meat bun. And they were all hungry, and they ate very sweetly.

Zhao Yulan looked at the novelty of the plaque, saying that it was like a bride unveiling her head, but Zhang Qingting secretly sighed in her heart, isn't this shop just like a new girl getting married?

Before the hijab is removed, who knows whether the person married is ugly or handsome? This business is not opened, who knows if it is a profit or a loss?

Don't think about any of that! Zhang Qingting suppressed the thousands of disturbing thoughts in his heart, clenched his fists, and encouraged himself: Zhang Qingting, you will definitely succeed!

(ps: Xiaoqingting's business is finally about to start, I wish her!) By the way, I also made an appointment for tomorrow's little pink, there will be more Oh, hehe! ）
