Chapter 167: Price Reduction
Under Zhou Kuiruo's soft grinding and hard soaking, Chun Tao still stayed at home for a few more days. Speaking of these days, for Chun Tao, it is really purgatory on earth! Not only do you have to deal with those guests who have their own ghosts during the day, but you also have to deal with the pervert who has opened the meat next to you at night. As a result, the little meat that I raised before was gradually gone.
"Chun Tao, are you sick? How did you lose so much weight? "The first person to find out was Aunt Zhou.
Chun Tao touched her face that was obviously missing meat, glared at Zhou Kuiruo inadvertently, and said to Aunt Zhou: "It's okay, I just didn't sleep well at night, and there are usually many guests." ”
"It's just that it's been a few days, and there are still so many people coming to the door. At first, I thought it was good, but now it seems that it is still better and cleaner. Aunt Zhou was annoyed after a few days of warm hospitality, and when she thought of these people recently, she rubbed her eyebrows.
"I've taken care of everything I need to do in the past few days, and I think no one will come to the door after I come." Although Aunt Zhou and Chun Tao also helped entertain guests, most of them were men, mainly Zhou Kuiruo.
Sure enough, a few days later, Zhou Kui's admission to Xiucai was replaced by a new thing, the tranquility in front of Zhou's house was restored, and Chun Tao was ready to go back to busy her business.
"This is leaving?" Zhou Kuiruo dragged Chun Tao's packed baggage and didn't let go, Chun Tao glared at him and dragged it back. "Lamei is alone with a few children, she will definitely be too busy, and her body will definitely be tired."
"You're afraid that she's tired, why aren't you afraid of me..."Zhou Kuiruo twisted and deliberately didn't say anything, snorted coldly and tilted his head to peek at Chun Tao.
That's enough, what a way! Are you jealous? Competing for favor? If you stay any longer, I'll be the one who will be exhausted. Chun Tao glanced at Zhou Kuiruo and shook his head.
Seeing that Chun Tao didn't care about herself, Zhou Kuiruo knew that she would not stay this time, so she thought about the future. "Then when will you come back, you can't let me stay alone in the empty room!"
Chun Tao turned her head and watched him say such an out-of-tune thing seriously, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
"Lady, I know you're thinking about this family, but... Why don't you think about the issue of my Zhou family's heirs! I'm in my twenties this year, and my mother is anxious to hold her grandson! ”
Chun Tao thought about it and felt that what Zhou Kuiruo said was right, he should have had a child in ancient times at his age, and he had promised to give him a child before, not to mention that now it was a happy situation, so there was no reason to refuse. Merely... You have to find a credible person to watch over the store, so that you can get out.
"I'll find a way to come back often." Chun Tao threw down this sentence with her burden on her back and left, leaving Zhou Kuiruo in a daze facing the empty room. She's just... Did you say yes? Why did you say yes?
When Zhou Kuiruo came back to his senses and went to chase the spring peach after being stupid, he only saw a figure covered by green bamboo.
Spring Peach departs in the morning, and arrives at the store just in time for the busiest.
"Sister Chuntao, if you don't come back, we'll be exhausted." Finally cleaned up, October lay in front of Chun Tao, staring at the big round eyes.
Chun Tao rubbed her head and soothed her. looked at Lamei and said, "It's time to recruit people, I'm afraid I won't come to the store often in the future, and I plan to let you take care of it, okay?" ”
"I can't do it, I can't do it, I can't do it alone without you looking at it." Lamei waved her hand again and again, looking at Chun Tao in trepidation.
"I'm not here these days, aren't you managing it well? And..."Thinking that the next words were not suitable for the children to listen to, Chun Tao found an excuse and drove the people away. "And Xianggong wants a child, so I... I can't just be in the county all the time. Speaking of this, Chun Tao couldn't help but blush.
Looking at Chun Tao's shy appearance, Lamei covered her mouth and lowered her head and snickered. And said seriously: "But I'm still a little scared, you don't know, the business in the store has been better recently, and I'm worried that I can't be busy." ”
"It's nothing, it's good to recruit more people, but the character must pass."
"Don't worry about this! If there is rice, they will help to inquire, and there will be absolutely no problem. "The new chef in the store is rice, and they help inquire, after all, he used to be a beggar, and the gossip is very well-informed.
"Hmmm! Also, let's reduce the price of vegetables! ”
"Price reduction? This... This is generally a good business, but the price is rising, why do we want to reduce the price? ”
Since the opening of Chuntao's fast food restaurant, there have been several in the county, but Chuntao's store is close to the dock, the dishes are often changed, and there are old customers, so business has been good. But Chun Tao is not satisfied with the status quo, after all, people are greedy.
She wants a better business and more money. It is not wise to increase the price at the moment, and it is best to increase sales by adding up to a small amount. Chun Tao patiently told Lamei the reason.
"It seems to make some sense."
"Since the price has been reduced, there will definitely be more customers coming to the door. Not only should the number of people running the hall increase, but also the chefs should also recruit more, and there should also be more tables and chairs. You don't have to count the money, but you have to hold the ledger. ”
"I still know this, don't worry! But can there be more tables and chairs in this courtyard? ”
"Change the position of the placement, add it if you can! I'm not leaving right away, I'm not in a hurry. ”
"Hmm!" After discussing the things in the store, Lamei began to joke about Chun Tao. "You and Brother Zhou have been married for a long time, why is there no news yet? I got married later than you in March, but I gave birth to all the children. ”
Aren't you still married? Chun Tao scratched her neck and didn't dare to say such hurtful words. "I think I was weak before, and I haven't been conditioned! Fortunately, my mother didn't rush me. ”
In fact, Aunt Zhou didn't urge Chun Tao, but as soon as she had this thought, she was suppressed by Zhou Kuiruo, or she was moved by Chun Tao and forgot about it during her illness.
"Aunt Zhou is a good person, and she treats you as her own daughter." Chun Tao agrees with this, although sometimes she still talks about herself because of Zhou Kuiruo, but the parents are not partial, and Chun Tao doesn't care about this bit of bias. "If you want me to say that it's still your sister-in-law, it's your body so weak." Somehow, Lamei thought of Zhao Yang again.
"Okay, let's not talk about that, you've been tired all day, go and rest! Won't you have to teach them literacy later? ”
"Hmmm! Then I went. Lamei regretted it after saying that, now that life is good, why do you have to recall the past!
I don't know why, I only talked about Zhao Yang's during the day, and Chun Tao dreamed of Zhao Qiusheng in the evening. Chun Tao was frightened awake, and only remembered that in the dream, Zhao Qiusheng stared at her with sunken eyes, and his skinny hand held the same thin dog egg and stared at her deadly, although he didn't say a word, but his eyes seemed to be quenched with poison.
The last time I dreamed of Zhao Yang, it seemed like she was dead, and this time I dreamed of Zhao Qiusheng, wouldn't he be dead too! Chun Tao rubbed her temples and had a headache. After thinking about it, I fell down and prepared to sleep, but I couldn't sleep after tossing and turning.
Forget it, don't sleep. Turning over and getting out of bed, Chun Tao walked to the place where the wine was usually put and took a jar of wine, and took another cup and sat in the courtyard.
After a glass of wine, Chun Tao returned to the room with the wine jar. Luckily, I remember that I didn't drink well, otherwise it wouldn't be good for them to see me ugly tomorrow morning.
If only Zhou Kuiruo was here, why did I think of him, could it be... Do you really like him? Chun Tao looked at the dark room, not understanding how the days before when no one was drinking with him were lived.
Chun Tao's amount of wine was finally practiced, and he fainted after four glasses of wine.
It has always been Chuntao's style to do what is said, and after recruiting people and rearranging tables and chairs, Chuntao has reduced its price.
As she expected, the price of vegetables has gone down, but business has improved, and the income in the past few days has not only not decreased but also increased compared with before.
"Chun Tao, you see, I really earn more than before." Lamei happily held up the account book, saying that she wanted to show Chun Tao, but she just held it with a smirk and did not stretch out her hand. Chun Tao didn't say anything, just looked at her silly.
"Sister Lamei, didn't you say you wanted to show Sister Chuntao?" September looked at Lamei's smirk, felt a little embarrassed, and pretended to be calm and reminded her.
"Yes, yes! I forgot about this joy. Lamei hurriedly gave the account book to Chun Tao, and Chun Tao was not polite, so she took it and looked at it. No problem. He returned the ledger to Lamei, "I see that things in the store are running normally, and I plan to go home tomorrow." ”
"In such a hurry?"
It's not that Chun Tao is in a hurry, it's Zhou Kuiruo who is in a hurry. It's only been a few days! He had already run to the county seat three times, and each time he asked her to go back. In addition, Aunt Zhou also started, and she couldn't stand it. "Yes! It's been a long time. Chun Tao smiled bitterly and shook her head.
"But it's true that passing on the family line is more important than doing business, and you are not very needed here anyway." Zhou Kuiruo came to the door once or twice, maybe a few children didn't know what it was for, but there were many times, and a few people also understood.
"How old are you to know that you have passed on the lineage?" Chun Tao choked back.
"I'm twelve, not young, and in four years, I'll be able to marry a wife." Rice raised her head, very proud.
Chun Tao has somehow not been able to see a few children recently, and she is not in a good mood now, and what she says is even more ruthless. "Then do you have a wife?"
Speaking of which, the rice is gone, and so are the soybeans, because he is as big as rice, and he has a sister to marry!
Rice walked away in a huff, but Chun Tao thought about the future of several children because of his words. Anyway, I saved them myself, so it doesn't seem good to ignore them. But in the final analysis, Chun Tao is still the same Chun Tao, very cold, and he didn't plan to think about it himself, but threw the problem to Lamei. Without him, I just think Lamei is more familiar with them.
"That's what you said, you can't let these kids run away all the time! You still have to have a craft. After listening to Chun Tao's words, Lamei thought it was true, and she also understood the virtue of her good sister, so she took the matter. I'll take a look at it for a while, so you don't have to worry about it. ”
"I wasn't worried." Chun Tao shrugged her shoulders and went to the stove room. Lamei only felt that her enthusiasm had not been vented before it was extinguished, and the expression on her face was really weird.
"Sister Lamei, what's wrong with you?" When the two men spoke, their voices were so low that the children did not hear them. Lamei touched Xiaodou's head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, it's just that I'm angry with your Sister Chuntao." ”
"Huh?" But looking at it like this, it doesn't seem to be angry! The three little girls looked at each other, each shaking their heads in distress.
