Chapter Ninety-Four: The Problem of Ingredients
After Shu Nuan said the decision that there was no need to add more manpower, Li Juanjuan suddenly became anxious.
"Why can't you use it, you see that the store is doing so well now, and the ones that sell less are the less money you make......"
Shu Nuan saw that the other party looked like he was about to make a tirade, and hurriedly interrupted the other party's words that he was about to continue.
"Sister Juanjuan, I know what you're worried about. However, the store has only been open for a week, and at this time there are the most curious people to try it. After this fresh period, the business of the store is still so good, and we will consider adding more staff. ”
In fact, she still has some words that she has not said, that is, even if the business continues to be as good as it is now, she does not plan to increase the number of people.
Selling steamed buns for breakfast is to save trouble, and what you earn is small profits and quick turnover.
Now, if you add more people, it will inevitably increase the cost, and in the end, you really won't make much money. On the contrary, if the price of buns is raised, there are not many people who can accept it, after all, there are so many people in Xiaoshan Town.
Shu Nuan thought about what this place would look like in the next ten years, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "If only the highway had been repaired earlier......"
After the opening of the expressway, not only the small mountain town will become prosperous, but even the Shujia Village, which is inconvenient, will also become a fragrant dumpling with geographical advantages.
But this kind of thing, she can only think about it for now, after all, the construction of the highway will take at least a few years before news comes out.
"Forget it, it's useless to think about it now."
Shu Nuan shook his head and sighed softly, turned around and went into the kitchen.
It's useless to think about it more now, so it's better to do what you do.
Li Juanjuan saw that she didn't want to continue the previous topic, although she felt a little regretful in her heart, but it was not good to continue to mention it.
This weekend, there are not many student parties, and the two of them are busy with the morning and start to rest early.
It was close to noon, and the customers who came to buy steamed buns were only a few people intermittently.
Li Juanjuan cleaned the hygiene in the store, while Shu Nuan sat at the table and calculated the income in the morning.
Suddenly, a woman's loud voice came from the doorway.
"Little boss, so you opened a store here? I mean, why haven't I seen you at the farmer's market in a while......"
Shu Nuan looked up and recognized the person who came as an old customer who had set up a stall at the farmers' market some time ago.
"Sister Zhang......"
"Is this a good place for you?" Raren looked around and nodded, then reached out his palm and gestured to her. "It's still the same old ......"
"Row ......"
Shu Nuan bowed his head and went to serve fresh plum vegetable buns to the other party in person.
The other party picked up a bun with chopsticks, and after taking a light bite, he frowned slightly.
"Little boss, doesn't your bun taste right?"
As soon as the words of the visitor fell, Shu Nuan didn't react, but Li Juanjuan, who was tidying up on the side, was not happy.
"Our steamed buns are popular, how can there be a problem with the taste, do you ......" is not deliberately here to find fault.
Li Juanjuan's words behind her were not spoken, just because Shu Nuan reached out and grabbed her at this time, and then shook her head gently.
"Sister Juanjuan, you go clean up the kitchen, leave it to me here."
"Okay."
Li Juanjuan nodded and turned to leave.
After only Shu Nuan and Sister Zhang were left in the store, Shu Nuan slowly came to each other and sat down slowly.
"Sister Zhang, I'm really sorry......"
She didn't say what she was talking about, but Sister Zhang nodded slightly: "Well, it's okay." ”
"Sister Zhang, you said that my bun tastes wrong, is there something wrong?"
Shu Nuan has not felt that there is a problem with the buns she makes recently, and the fresh ingredients she uses and the production method are still the same, and there is no change. Moreover, recently, no one has reported to her that there is anything wrong with the taste of the food, but more and more people have begun to come to buy it.
"Your bun is better than others, but the taste is not as delicious as what you sold some time ago......"
Sister Zhang said lightly, and couldn't help muttering secretly in her heart: The little boss doesn't set up a stall and opens a store directly, and the taste of this bun has changed, is it a change of person.
Shu Nuan noticed the change in the expression on the other party's face, and lowered his eyes slightly.
A moment ago, she and Li Juanjuan had the same idea, this is a person who came to find fault, if it weren't for the fact that the person who came was her old customer and everyone knew her, she would not talk to each other so calmly.
After all, when selling food, it is most annoying for someone to find fault with the taste of the food.
But now it seems that the question raised by the other party is indeed her problem.
Originally, the ingredients used every day were purchased from outside, although they were fresh, but they were not the best, after all, her cost was here, and if she used too good ingredients, the price would not be cheap.
During the time when she set up a stall at the farmers' market, she used all the fresh vegetables that she grew herself, which directly played a finishing touch on the bun filling.
"Maybe I can try to grow my own ......"
Shu Nuan thought silently in his heart for a while, and then had to dispel this idea.
In the past, I set up a stall by myself, and I only did so much every day, and I closed the stall when I sold out, but now that I have opened a store and do business, the vegetables I originally planted are obviously not enough.
Seeing that she was silent, Sister Zhang knew that she had said the wrong thing, so she smiled hurriedly and said goodbye.
"Your bun is still very good, I will definitely come back often in the future. That one...... I still have some business to attend to today, so I'll go first. ”
"Sister Zhang, see you later."
Shu Nuan got up to see the other party off.
Although this conversation was not very pleasant, it could be regarded as a reminder to Shu Nuan and gave her a faint sense of crisis.
In the midst of the hectic last week, the store's business is gradually on track. There is also a fixed number of customers who come every day, and there are also a large number of regular customers, and almost all those who have come to buy food from her side have become repeat customers.
But that's not enough.
"It can't go on like this, there are too many shops around that also sell breakfast, and besides, these foods are always eaten, and everyone will get tired of eating them."
When Shu Nuan saw the benefits of the store's business, he had to start thinking about the ingredients.
"Dish...... Grow your own ...... Spring water ......" Shu Nuan thought of this, and suddenly paused. "Spring! That's right, it's the spring ......."
She couldn't help but reach out and tap her head and sigh heavily.
"How did I forget something so important? Growing vegetables takes place and time, but soaking the ingredients directly in spring water is a viable solution. Although it doesn't taste as good as growing directly from the spring, it's much better than ordinary ingredients, and it can save costs......
