Chapter 243: Change
"Guest officer, please come here! You're here for the auction too, right? Okay, please sit inside!" The shopkeeper Wang greeted people in person, full of spring breeze and full of energy, as if he was the protagonist of today's auction.
Originally, he was not optimistic about this so-called auction, thinking that Jiang Han wanted to sit on the ground and raise the price, but he didn't know how to read the market. Now the reputation of the cake is not very good, if anyone is still interested in this recipe, they should have come to it a long time ago, but except for the Zhou family, he has not seen anyone from other pastry shops, even the Jinyu pastry shop next door, no one has come into the store to ask.
There is a vigorous auction, and if no one comes, it will be a big joke.
But thinking that it was in a teahouse, no matter whether anyone came or not, he would always piggyback on the name of the teahouse when he publicized it, and no matter how much the recipe sold, he still had to collect the venue fee, and after some thought, he agreed with the mentality of taking money to see jokes.
Of course, Jiang Han also brought a milky white pastry that day, saying that it could be sold in his shop, and the amount sold was 10% for him, and he finally won 10% and a half, which is more profitable than the golden jade cake next door!
He could earn a plate of gold and jade cakes for three coins of silver, but the problem was that he could rarely sell three copies a day. And this white pastry, round and half the size of a fist, a five-penny, four for only twenty wen, is a new thing and only sold in his teahouse, there must be many people who order it, he agreed without thinking about it.
How do you know that the auction is just a recipe that is mixed with and has a bad reputation, and I didn't see Jiang Han hyping it up as usual, how could it be that on the day of the auction, more than a dozen people from the pastry shop came one after another?
However, these are good things for him, in addition to the representatives of the dozen or so pastry shops, there are more people who watch the excitement, these people have to spend a few pennies when they come, right?
Now it seems that fortunately, he listened to Jiang Han's suggestion last night, and put all the chairs and small tables in the corridor on the second floor, so that those who participated in the shooting or watched the excitement could easily see the movement in the lobby on the first floor, and reduced the gap between the tables and chairs in the lobby downstairs, so as to accommodate as many people as possible, otherwise today will be like the opening day of the June 16 teahouse, and more guests will not be retained.
In addition, according to Jiang Han's wishes, he removed a tea table near the north wall of the middle hall, leaving room for the long abbot, and placed four Taishi chairs in front of the offering table in the right position - the kid said that it was for people with status to sit.
"Yo, shopkeeper Zeng, you are really appreciative today! Do you want to grab a recipe too? This is a pastry recipe, not a specialty recipe! Shopkeeper Wang joked with a smile, but he still remembered that Jiang Han's kid gave the recipe of two dishes to the Million Restaurant for free, so that the Million Restaurant had two more special dishes!
Shopkeeper Zeng shook the fan in his hand, glanced at the pair of flying eyebrows of Shopkeeper Wang, with a polite smile on his face, and said slowly: "Shopkeeper Wang said that he was laughing, Brother Jiang is my friend, and the contemptible person brought a friend to cheer him on today!" As he spoke, he turned sideways and let the friend behind him in, and said to the shopkeeper Wang, "The shopkeeper Wang is busy first, and the contemptible person will lead his friend to the second floor to find a private room first, there must be some free space, right?" ”
"Yes, yes, many of today's guests are only willing to stay outside...... "Before the shopkeeper Wang finished speaking, he heard someone at the door say hello to him, "Shopkeeper Wang, business is prosperous!" Today, your teahouse is really lively, could it be that there are a lot of people who want to buy children? ”
"Shopkeeper Zhou, where is it...... Ah, isn't this Master Zhou? Why did you come here in person? My little shop is really full of brilliance! Quick, Brother Song, quickly lead Master Zhou to sit in the private room on the second floor! ”
Master Zhou greeted him kindly, and the shopkeeper Wang immediately took out his unique flattering gesture, sent people to the staircase, and watched Song Yaozu lead people upstairs, before he rubbed his hands excitedly and turned around.
As soon as I turned around, I saw that the people from the Jinyu Pastry Shop next door also came, and hurriedly greeted him.
Shopkeeper Wang's smile stiffened slightly, and then he stepped forward with a smile: "Shopkeeper Wu, you are here too!" Come in! ”
The shopkeeper Wu had his nostrils facing the sky, and he looked disdainful: "Can you not come?" Wang Lilai, you really hired a good guy who can make trouble! Since the first five days, he has invited some idle men who are streaming, and every pastry shop has sent out orders, shouting tunes, and promoting what 'Jiang family's cake recipe, the court is scrambling for, and the first ten profits come to the teahouse, ten taels of low prices are auctioned, whoever bids more will get it, and the opportunity is rare to come quickly! I want to see how many people can rob him! ”
Shopkeeper Wang laughed dryly, sent people up the stairs, turned his head and saw Jiang Han, immediately pulled to the side, and reprimanded in a low voice: "Why are you so lacking in heart? What good can you do by tying that recipe to? It's all yellow...... If you do this, will you be able to sell it for a good price? ”
"What?" Jiang Han was surprised.
"Isn't it just the tune that you invited to help the idlers and shouted everywhere, 'Jiang family's cake recipe, the court is scrambling for'?" The shopkeeper was even more surprised.
"What's with what? I let people sing 'Jiang family's cake recipe, the court scrambles for an accident'! ”
“……”
Well, everyone still remembers the gossip of who called her to in the court!
While the two were talking, a lot of brightly dressed people came in outside the door, and the two hurriedly greeted them with a smile. After a while, the Lilai teahouse was full of people, but there were so many people, most of them came to see the excitement.
Fortunately, the beautiful jade girl, who has been playing a soothing and melodious tune behind the screen under the stairs, is not too noisy for the people who come into the store, but after sitting down, everyone orders a pot of tea, leisurely while tasting and chatting with the people who come together.
When the sun was three poles, the hourglass scale was close to the hour, and a group of people came to the door.
"Oops! Lord Shen, Young Master Lu, Zhao Zhukuai, the three of you are here together! Hurry up, please sit down, and I'll be waiting for you. The shopkeeper Wang greeted him first, and then commanded Jiang Han and Song Yaozu, "Hurry up and show the three of you tea!" ”
Jiang Han stepped forward and led the three of them to the four Taishi chairs in front of the offering table, and the three servants of Xiaosong on the first and fifth days of the junior high school, and Liu Dakang beside Zhao Zhukuai also followed.
The three or five patrol archers and catchers in the back stayed outside the door to guard, which made the auction a little more serious. Seeing this, the tea guests sitting in the corridor on the second floor and in the lobby on the first floor also put away their leisure and took out a serious attitude.
Hearing the voice, Father Jiang, who took the time to come over but was temporarily arranged in the backyard by Jiang Han, also hurriedly came out to greet him, Liu Dakang saw this, and immediately ran over to help him.
Father Jiang smiled, and after seeing the three people with the highest status, he politely invited the three to take a seat, Jiang Han took his arm from Liu Dakang's hand and helped him to sit in the rightmost Taishi chair.
As soon as the four of them sat down, the sound of Meiyu's piano stopped, and the whispers of the tea guests disappeared immediately.
After a while, Song Yaozu served the four of them good tea, and Jiang Han stood in the open space, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for your face!" I invite you here today because my Jiang family wants to auction this troublesome cake recipe in public. Bid fairly, the highest bidder wins! As soon as her voice fell, a series of fierce and high-pitched piano sounds immediately sounded, although it was not as lively and intense as the gongs and drums, but it also made the hearts of the people present flutter and mobilized the atmosphere before the auction.
Jiang Han made a gesture, and the music stopped again.
She announced loudly: "Now I announce, the cake recipe auction has officially begun!" ”
