Chapter 48: Building a Wall
The shopkeeper was already impressed, and no longer hesitated to sign the paperwork, "Girl!" Now that there are chefs and guys who come to work in the store, there are enough people, so let's come to the private room to talk about cooperation! ”
"Good!" Han Qing said and followed him to the private room.
The two talked in the private room for half an hour, and the two sides reached an agreement, Han Qing came up with ideas, and Li's shopkeeper's resources were divided into fifty and fifty, and labor costs and material costs were deducted separately. The steamed soybean milk is still sent by Han Qing, and all the profits go to Han Qing. Now I really use the land of the restaurant to sell steamed buns and soy milk!
After signing the paperwork, Han Qing taught one chef how to make scallion oil noodles, and another taught another how to fry dumplings, and asked the shopkeeper to prepare more pork ribs and meat and pork the next day.
At the kind invitation of the shopkeeper, I had a hearty lunch with everyone, hurriedly bought some things, and went back to the village!
Wang Laohan's car has already returned to the village, and several people came back with a rented car, and when they entered the village, they attracted a burst of sighs, which was another short sale of steamed buns!
In the corner, Li and Han Xing'er grinned with red eyes: in the morning, someone saw them make a lot of steamed buns and take them to them, and the carriage came to pick them up. For such a good livelihood, you have to find a way to get that recipe!
As soon as he went home, he shrugged Guo to come over and set a prescription, Guo thought that the old patriarch's warning had only been a few days, and he was a little cowardly, and he lost his temper at the two of them angrily: "Isn't it just a steamed bun, as for you who have never seen the world and fancy that little money!" Be honest with me! I'm in my own hands! ”
After hearing this, the Li family knew that the Guo family did not dare to move for a while, and they did not dare to say more. I really can't be caught anymore, and it's no joke to be kicked out of the village!
The next day, Han Qing and a few people brought steamed buns to the restaurant and brought a few buckets of soy milk. I also taught the restaurant master how to steam pork ribs and meatballs, and the tender taste conquered everyone in the kitchen. Not surprisingly, the new style is also very popular.
In this way, Han Qing took everyone to the restaurant to sell steamed buns every day, and taught the restaurant master one or two things to eat every day, and everything went smoothly.
After half a month, from the first day of the income of steamed bread and soybean milk from three or four taels to the current two or three taels, more than 50 taels of silver have been saved. Han Qing knew that with the increase of other foods, the demand for steamed buns and soy milk had begun to decline. Thinking that there is also the division of the restaurant in the back, there should be a lot.
It's time to build a house!
Directly asked the shopkeeper Li about the best house building team in the county, and took out the drawings drawn before to show the person in charge, and the person in charge immediately made a decision: "Little girl, this house, you come to buy materials, I will do the construction without taking a penny, just ask that after this house is completed, the design of this house will be handed over to us for use, and we can also use other houses built in the future!" ”
Han Qing knows that this era is very closed to this exquisite craft or design, and ordinary people will not pass on their craftsmanship, although they have not thought about making a fortune by this, but they must also be useful in the future: "Uncle, it's like this, you can use this design yourself, but you can't sell this copyright, although I don't point to this to make money, but one day I will design a variety of styles, and if there is a duplicate design, I'm afraid it's not good for the uncle!" ”
The person in charge nodded: "Of course, we only need to build a house, these drawings or something, we will not be exposed, even if others see the finished product, they can't understand the mystery!" ”
"Okay, that's it! Then we sign a document stating that you can use the design of the house but you are not allowed to sell the design rights,,,,"
"As it should be!"
"Uncle, I have to worry about the materials and some details of this!"
"That's nature, I'll help check the quality!"
According to the drawings, the two discussed some materials and details. has been worried about the safety of his family, Han Qing asked to fence the wall first, and then build a house in the middle. Zhao Hua, a common person, immediately deployed manpower and bluntly said that he could build a wall the next day.
Han Qing had long inquired that there was a tile-burning kiln in the village next door to Yingying Village, and the men in Yingying Village usually went here to do odd jobs. As soon as he returned home, he was brought there by Yang Wu and Guo Shan to buy bricks and tiles. Because the person in charge and Guo Shan and Yang Wu are both familiar with each other, Han Qingguang needs a lot of bricks for the wall, and the price is much more affordable.
After paying, I want to let the kiln send two cars of bricks over, the kiln to send bricks to the car is too busy, the afternoon is generally not free, because it is close to the morning can send two or three cars. Seeing this, Han Qing introduced Wang Laohan's ox cart to the person in charge, which was only a lot more than the cart in this kiln. The person in charge was also cheerful, and immediately agreed.
When Wang Laohan heard that there was such a price, he couldn't close his mouth happily, and he didn't have to move bricks to the car by himself, just drive the ox cart back and forth, and drive to the county seat back and forth, sometimes there may not be ten Wen.
Early the next morning, when Zhao Hua came to the village with people, Han Qing had already greeted him at the entrance of the village, and Yang Wuda's prey was brought to the restaurant by the Zhou family.
Because it is a pile of walls, the technical content is not very high, Zhao Hua only brought ten people, three carts of bricks have long been placed there, and everyone works together to build the foundation.
Yang Wu followed along, and after a while, Guo Shan also brought a few people to help. They were all a few people who helped measure last time, and Han Qing knew that several people were bold, so after thanking them, he left everyone to have a light meal with the construction team at noon.
Because of the confession of Han Qing, Huang and Zhou went straight to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and prepare to bring them back for lunch as soon as they finished selling the steamed buns and soybean milk.
Han Qing was in charge of the kitchen, and Huang helped a few people, braised pork was necessary, and then a few other small stir-fried dishes were made, and a large bone broth was cooked. Han Qing's place is small and can't greet so many people, but fortunately, at the foot of the hill next to the house, there are many shaded places, and the cooked meals are packed in large pots and covered with a layer of clean cloth, and they are directly brought to the shade of the trees.
Pots of food wafted over with the fragrance, and some hungry children in the village had already come to watch, and the men who were under construction stopped when they smelled the fragrance. After knowing that this was his lunch at noon, he was very happy, Han Qing said hello, and ran to the stream at the foot of the mountain one by one to clean his hands.
This meal smells good, and it definitely tastes even better!
Zhao Hua originally brought some dry food for everyone to eat at noon, but now he was a little embarrassed, and said that he didn't want people to pay for this salary, and now he let people take care of the food. Look at the meat in this meal, it's really enough,,,,
Han Qing smiled: "Uncle Zhao, come and eat, I'm embarrassed that you help me get paid, I have to take care of a meal, don't I?" ”
Zhao Hua saw Han Qing's sincere face, and he no longer twisted: "Nacheng, this meal is really fragrant, no wonder Shopkeeper Li praised you for your ability, I have to try this craft!" So saying, he went to the brook to clean his hands.
Han Qing greeted the crowd warmly: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone has to eat openly, I prepared some drinks for everyone to cool off in the afternoon, and we may eat later in the evening,,,,,"
Everyone who was eating was secretly shocked: This is not only a meal at noon, but also a meal at night? What is this drink to cool off?
Ordinary people can only take care of a lunch at most, and the meals made by large families for workers are not as sincere as this meal, and they even take care of dinner and drinks here?
The food at noon was hearty, and the people who worked hard in the afternoon were even harder, and they all seemed to be tired one by one, and when Han Qing ordered someone to send mung bean soup, he forced everyone to rest for a while, otherwise he was really afraid that someone would have a heat stroke or something.
Thanks to the help of the villagers, the wall was built in three or four days.
After giving everyone a day off, they began to dig up sewer pipes in the wall, what Han Qing wants is the same convenient effect as a modern house, each floor has at least one bathroom, the first and second floors are arranged with shower rooms, and the third floor is directly made into a small bath, and the tap water is drawn from the stream that flows down the mountain, because there is no air conditioning in ancient times, Han Qing has designed a ring corridor and an eaves that can be drenched on each floor, in summer, turn on the switch on the third floor, and the tap water can be released from the roof of the third floor. It stretches down like rain to the drainage system on the first floor, so it's a lot cooler.
Han Qing asked a few people in the village to help go to the mountain to dig some thick bamboo, open it up, and use it as a pipe for running water.
The drainage system and water diversion system in the early stage, septic tanks, etc., because everyone has not been in contact with them, it took half a month to repair and modify them, which was expected by Han Qing. In the past 20 days, soy milk and steamed buns have earned 40 taels of silver, and half of the food for everyone to eat and drink every day has been spent.
At the end of the month, the division of Xiangmanlou was divided all at once, and there were more than 500 taels. Originally, I wanted to do the business of the early period, but who knew that later, as long as I came to the restaurant, it was not rare to have the previous wine and food, all to rare this fresh little snack, and after a month, Xiangmanlou has become a modern Cantonese teahouse, and it is open all day.
In the past, the restaurant only had a maximum profit of 300 taels a month at the peak of the peak season, and usually only had a maximum profit of 200 taels. In the hot off-season, the net profit is more than 1,000 taels a month, even if the two of them share, 500 taels is already a lot. When Shopkeeper Li personally sent over five hundred taels of silver, he insisted on bringing two carriages of daily necessities as gifts to Han Qing.
Just to buy a lot of materials, Han Qing has more than six hundred taels on hand, which is more than enough to use until the house is completed.
