Chapter 030: Decentralization
This kebab is grilled not greasy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, the meat is delicious, and it is simply unique to pick up a skewer on the side of this street.
All of a sudden, the popularity of the barbecue even faintly exceeded the position of Malatang, and Zheng Lu was busy and had been frantically barbecuing all kinds of skewers.
Because of the barbecue, the popularity of the skewer incense today is much more popular than on the first day of opening. However, the barbecue has been waiting for a little longer, and many people will order some spicy tang while waiting for the barbecue, and wait while eating, which is undoubtedly a disguised increase in turnover.
Lin Xia still feels very relieved that the business can be so good, it is all thanks to the blessing of Chinese food, so that her little life can live in this ancient time.
Lin Xia saw that the business in the store was relatively stable, and when Li Xia recovered from his injuries and came back to work, coupled with Lin Xia's observation of Qian Dong, he found that he acted steadily and calmly, and was very careful, Lin Xia simply gave the key to the store to Qian Dong, and let him work part-time as the shopkeeper and be responsible for procurement.
Qian Dong didn't expect that it had only been half a month, and the two bosses, Lei Biao and Lin Xia, had actually valued him so much, and since then they have been even more serious and responsible.
When handing over the account book, Lin Xia also specially taught Qian Dong the bookkeeping method of Arabic numerals, because when Qian Dong received the account book, he couldn't understand the numbers on the account book at all, which was obviously completely different from what he had been exposed to before, but he was relieved to think that many big restaurants would have their own unique bookkeeping methods, but felt that Lin Xia was smart, and this bookkeeping method could not be created casually.
Lin Xia would definitely vomit blood if he knew Qian Dong's thoughts, this Arabic numeral bookkeeping method is no longer common for modern times, as for her, Lin Xia is really not so smart, she can create a new set of bookkeeping methods.
Fortunately, Qian Dong was smart, and the Arabic numerals were quickly learned and started to keep accounts, Lin Xia said that he was very pleased.
After letting go of this store, Lei Biao and Lin Xia were not at ease at first, and they came to inspect the store once in two or three days, but the weather became colder and colder later, and the two of them were lazy, so they only came to inspect the store once a week or half a month.
As for the ingredients and pure spirit water, Lin Xia didn't send them in person, and directly asked Zheng Lu to come to her every few days to pick them up. The account book was also sent to her by Qian Dong every other week, and at the end of the month, the number of the month's turnover was returned, and Lin Xia was given the month's bonus from the amount of the turnover.
There is no need to get up early and go to the store to work in the dark, Lei Biao and Lin Xia's small life is very leisurely.
With this time, Lin Xia continued to build his own cozy cottage at home, and went to the mountains to dig up a lot of wildflowers and plant them in front of the door, and when the flowering period came, it would definitely be very pleasing to the eye.
And Lei Biao was sent by Lin Xia to the fruit forest to put away all the ripe red apples, then take care of the vegetable garden, collect some vegetables and put them in the cellar to be used for the winter; Then I went to the mountains to hunt a lot of prey, some of which were sent to the store, and the rest were all pickled and hung on the beams of the house to dry.
This day was plain and bland, and she lived a relaxed and comfortable life, and Lin Xia felt that this kind of life was very suitable for her.
However, there are always people who don't want Lei Biao and Lin Xia's life to be dull.
Today is the end of the month, and it is the first time that Qian Dong has come to report this month's revenue, and he is inevitably a little apprehensive, but he can't hide the smile on his face.
Chuanchuan incense is now under his full management, and Qian Dong is very grateful to be so trusted by the boss and the proprietress of the boss. Although there are many restaurant owners who show favor to him and want to poach them with a lot of money, and bring the secret recipe of strings of incense by the way, although Qian Dong's deed of sale is in the hands of Lei Biao Lin Xia, he has no desire to betray these two couples in his heart. Hope.
It's really nice to be trusted.
Entering the yard, a burst of strange fragrance filled his nose, Qian Dong was slightly stunned, and looked aside to find that two osmanthus trees had just been planted, this osmanthus fragrance is different from the intensity of roses, and also different from the tranquility of jasmine, which is a refreshing fragrance, and has the effect of refreshing the brain and refreshing. Qian Dongguan smiled, thinking that this boss's taste was getting better and better.
Walking down the cobblestone path, Qian Dong knocked on the door, and the people inside answered him before he walked in.
Qian Dong saw Lei Biao and Lin Xia sitting side by side on the sofa, with a thin quilt on their bodies, and they were each holding a red apple in their hands and eating. Qian Dong was a little helpless when he saw this scene, he really had never seen such a freewheeling person, so he bowed to them slightly and said, "Boss, boss lady." ”
With a click, Lin Xia took a bite of the crisp apple, "Money shopkeeper, why do you always wear such an old-fashioned look?" You should dress younger and match your age. ”
Qian Dong's eyelids trembled slightly, very helpless, every time Lin Xia saw him, he would complain about his dress, because his clothes were mostly dark brown and olive green, and they were a little inconsistent with his age.
sighed deeply and said, "If I don't dress up and become older, those restaurant owners will look down on me." ”
Lin Xia snorted coldly in his heart, knowing that Qian Dong was talking about the boss of Wangjiang Tower. In Qinghou County, the largest restaurant is Wangjiang Building, and the most means are also Wangjiang Building, in the days when Qian Dong took over the store, he saw that the shopkeeper had changed people, and repeatedly brought people to make trouble, and once even rushed into the kitchen to fish for soup residues, and the means were endless.
And Lin Xia understood the importance of the background, and specially visited Wang Zhixian in Qinghou County with Lei Biao, just when the concubine of Wang Zhixian gave birth to a son full moon, Lin Xia specially sent ten tables of hot pot and gifts to this Wang Zhixian, in order to let Wang Zhixian take more care of the shop.
This hot pot is not sold in the string of incense, because the store is too small to set up a hot pot table. As soon as Lin Xia's hot pot was delivered, it immediately spread in the county: this string of incense hot pot is not for takeaway, and people with some status can eat it.
Then without exception, many people with a little status in and outside the county ordered hot pot from Qian Dong, who didn't know what hot pot was at all, and hurriedly reported it to Lei Biao Lin Xia at that time.
Lin Xia didn't expect this matter to develop unexpectedly. Knowing that scarcity is precious, Lin Xia limited this hot pot to only five pots a week, and only accepted reservations in advance, and then taught Zheng Lu the ingredients and methods of stir-frying ingredients for the hot pot, and asked him to cook the mandarin duck hot pot directly in the store, with the pre-ordered dishes, and ask someone to send the hot pot directly to the home of the person who made the reservation.
Wang Zhixian learned that this hot pot was a rare thing, and Lin Xia sent ten tables of hot pot at a time, obviously giving him face, so he was very polite to Lei Biao and Lin Xia and his wife, and promised to take good care of the shop, and set up a post outside the shop to monitor the situation in the store in shifts.
And every time, the one who does the most is Wangjiang Tower.
Lin Xia hadn't forgotten that there were men in black who came to surround her and Lei Biao that day, but Lin Xia didn't think of a way to deal with Wangjianglou for a while.
Lin Xia waved his hand, a hint of impatience between his eyebrows, "Tell me about this month's revenue." ”
"This month, a total of one hundred and eighty-three taels and four hundred and thirty-four wen, excluding the purchase costs, labor, etc., the net income is one hundred and sixty-eight taels and one hundred and twenty-three wen."
Lin Xia nodded slightly, almost a net profit of more than five taels of silver per day, which was already quite good. "This month's turnover is not bad, and everyone will be given a bonus of 100 wen this month." Lin Xia has never been a stingy person, she earns it, and employees naturally have to ask for benefits.
Qian Dong was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed to Lin Xia and said, "I thanked the boss lady first." ”
Lin Xia sighed and motioned for Qian Dong to leave first, seeing Qian Dong standing still with an embarrassed face, Lin Xia realized that something was wrong and asked, "Is there anything else?" ”
Qian Dong saw Lin Xia asking, and said hesitantly: "Boss, a man came today and ordered a lot of barbecue and spicy tang without giving money, and when he asked, he said that it was your fourth brother, if you want to account, just ask you for an account." ”
Lin Xia narrowed his eyes slightly, and a disgusted expression obviously appeared on his face, "Fourth brother? Lin Chengyao? The one who is so lazy all day long dares to come to the door to eat and drink for nothing! ”
"I know, have you written down the number of barbecue spicy tang he ate today?" Lin Xia asked.
"I ordered fifteen strings of meat dishes and eight strings of vegetarian dishes for Malatang, and nine strings of meat dishes and four strings of vegetarian dishes for barbecue, a total of sixty Wen."
Lin Xia nodded, "Okay, I'll deal with this matter, you go back early to rest, and you will open a store tomorrow." ”
Qian Dong nodded and left immediately.
"You say, how am I going to deal with this shameless family?" Lin Xia asked Lei Biao's opinion.
Lei Biao didn't seem to hear Lin Xia's words, but instead stretched out his big hand and stroked it gently. Touching Lin Xia's belly, "I'm fat." ”
Lin Xia shook off Lei Biao's hand fiercely, glared at him and said, "You are just fat, talking nonsense, I'm still so thin, okay!" ”
"Okay, you're not fat." Lei Biao scratched Lin Xia's little nose with his hand, and said gently: "Why are you so displeased with your mother's family?" Are they bad for you? It's as if I've never heard you talk about the past. ”
Hearing Lei Biao change his head, Lin Xia snorted, saying that he would let him say that she was fat, and then took out an apple from the fruit basket on the stage and replied while eating: "They are patriarchal, and they don't regard me as their daughter at all." I raised us just to get more dowry, and before that, the Du family planned to marry me to the county master as a concubine. ”
"Yes, I know." Lei Biao nodded lightly and motioned for her to continue.
But Lin Xia was embarrassed, she couldn't say anything about the 'past' anymore, after all, she was Lin Xia, not Lin Xia'er, how did she know what Lin Xia'er's past was?
Lin Xia suddenly realized a problem, about the matter of identity, she is not good to confess to Lei Biao.
Sensing that Lin Xia's mood was wrong, Lei Biao said with concern: "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, I want to sleep." Lin Xia didn't want to lie so hard, so she had to choose to escape, and directly lay on Lei Biao's body and said coquettishly: "I don't want to go, you can carry me into the room~"
