Chapter 25: A Family Affair Neighbors

"Open a snack bar?" Han Yinong was originally reading an orchid cultivation book, but after hearing what his wife said about Wanyi, he put the book down, "Open a snack bar in a large shopping mall? ”

"It's not your average snack bar." Jiang Ru repeated the advice her daughter told her on the road, "The store is modernized, the kitchen is transparent, the staff is uniformed, the operation is streamlined, andβ€”β€”"

"Management is humane, scientific and branded." Shui Qing sat down next to him, drank saliva, and helped replenish it.

"Yes." Jiang Ru nodded heavily. At first, when she heard that it was a snack bar, she felt the same reaction as Han Yinong, and felt that it was out of tune.

"It's like McDonald's and KFC fast-food restaurants abroad, they taste good, the price is fair, the environment and the food are very clean, so that the people who eat feel happy and comfortable." Shui Qing explained, "Our main shopping area here expands outward with the pedestrian street as the center. There are many big restaurants, and there are hundreds for two people in one meal. Those who make a lot of money, do business, and invite guests to dinner can certainly afford it. So, where are students, young people, ordinary wage earners, tourists from out of town, or people from other towns and villages coming to shop? ”

"I remember there were a lot of small restaurants, and snacks and pasta were not unusual." Han Yinong raised his glasses and thought for a while.

"It's small, it doesn't look clean or fresh. Don't you tell me often, don't eat outside. Shui Qing quoted her father's education, "Now that the living standard in our city is getting higher and higher, people don't really mind eating out, as long as the price is reasonable, the store is clean and bright, and the things are fresh and hygienic." The location of Wanyi is good, the crowds are busy, and there are many residential areas around. Open a snack bar that offers a variety of noodle and rice soups, refreshing cold dishes, neat hot dishes, and tea. You can be a guest and a takeaway. Moreover, Wanyi itself is a relatively civilian shopping place that can attract traffic to each other. ”

Han Yinong looked at Jiang Ru, Jiang Ru noticed it, waved his hand and said, "Don't look at me, your daughter's own idea." ”

"But you agree." Han Yinong said.

"I have to say that this approach is very risky, because I don't know how different the concept of Qingqing is in this snack bar. However, it sounded like a lot of new ideas, and it appealed to me. Jiang Ru had two thoughts, "Okay, don't talk about whether you want to open this snack bar or not, first say who can open it, who will open it." ”

"Feather Mom." Shui Qing had already thought about it.

"Junping?" Jiang Ru's hand picking vegetables slowed down.

"Feather Mom's craftsmanship is known to our neighbors, and there are no snacks in the north and south that she can't do, and she usually had better study these. Before that, she worked in the canteen of the agency, and she also has a third-level chef certificate. After Shui Qing figured it out, he thought it would kill two birds with one stone. It not only solved Wanyi's problem, but also helped Feather's mother find a job.

"It's true." Dad Han paid attention to objectivity, pinched his chin with his big hand, and nodded slightly, "Don't talk about the children around here, even we like the dumplings and buns that Junping sends every day, and the snacks are called authentic." Two days ago, we went to Zhu's house to eat beef noodles, the noodles were rolled by ourselves, and the soup base was stewed with beef bones and spices. She went to H City some time ago to eat Taiwanese beef noodles, and when she came back, she made it herself. ”

"Although Junping's cooking skills are not as good as those in big restaurants, there is really nothing to say about snacks and cold food." Jiang Ru smiled and straightened his expression again, "But the difficulty is Lao Zhu." In a word.

Indeed, it is difficult to get a scholarly temper at home when the feather dad is sour. Not only is he stubborn enough, but he hates compassion the most. Although he is a warm-hearted person himself, it will not work when applied to his own family.

"I've figured it out." Since Shui Qing proposed this idea, he would not be rejected casually. With a pinch of his hand, he took off half a bean, "Raise funds." ”

"What kind of fundraising method?" Han's father was quite interested.

"First of all, my mother can't participate, she is the general manager of Wanyi, and she shouldn't be directly involved in the business of renting out shops. However, dad can participate in one, even if it is a friendly sponsorship. Then, let's find a few good neighbors, like the Ye family, the baby family, as well as Brother Hua, Sister Bauhinia, Professor Tan and Mrs. Tan, and see if they are willing to contribute. Anyway, even if you don't get any stores, everyone is willing to pay to help the Feather family. "If it weren't for such good neighbors, it would not have been possible to raise funds." Because the store is opened at everyone's expense, the feather mother is asked to manage the kitchen, pay the salary every month, and share the dividends proportionally at the end of the year. In this way, it is not unconditional help, and the feather dad can't oppose it. ”

Jiang Rucai didn't pick it anymore, wiped her hands on her apron, and walked out, "I'll go and ask the Ye family first." Lao Han, you go to the baby's house, Lao Xiao just came back to stay for three months, see if he wants to be a part. ”

"Mom, I'll go to Sister Bauhinia's house." Shui Qing didn't plan to be idle, she was like her mother, she couldn't care about the dishes, and she wanted to help.

"Suo Gender repeats that there is a mobilization meeting as in the past, and everyone can discuss it well." Han Yinong is the most efficient.

"It's best to open it after dinner, it's time pressing." Jiang Ruxin thought about the opening of Wanyi, "If you really want to open a store, business license, decoration, recruitment, a lot of things to do." ”

"I'll go and inform." Shui Qing loves to string the door next door, "At our house, seven o'clock in the evening, okay?" ”

"Let's go." Jiang Ru also has to hurry up cooking.

Han Yinong volunteered to go upstairs to invite his parents. Feather dad Zhu Dan and him are not only colleagues, but also playmates from the village, and have a deep friendship. So whenever the husband and wife of the Zhu family quarreled, he went up to persuade him, and Junping would always say that he favored Zhu Dan and didn't dare to come to the door. Today, however, he has a very good reason to state his position of complete neutrality.

At seven o'clock in the evening, except for Brother Hua, who had not come back from the field, the neighbors who had the deepest friendship in the three buildings were concentrated in Shui Qing's house. It's been a long time since it's been this lively.

When it came to the matter, everyone enthusiastically asked, after all, this is a big deal, and fundraising is not something that can be solved by a family of three or two thousand.

In the end, ignoring the resolute opposition of Feather Dad for the time being, Ye Dad, who has always had a precise vision, made a condition that Ye Ma could participate in the operation of the snack bar, and he was willing to contribute half of the funds. With the leader and the most powerful, Captain Xiao, Sister Bauhinia, and Professor Tan are also willing to join in.

"I'm firmly against it." Zhu Dan saw that everyone was going to open a snack bar, and then looked at his wife's surprised and happy appearance, and looked anxious, "My family can't bear it, it's good not to lose all the money." She can only cook home-cooked side dishes, which she can barely eat. You exalt her too much. "Modesty does not make drafts.

"Zhu Dan, what do you mean? Barely edible? "Insult her, okay. However, you must not insult your cooking skills. Zhao Jun was calm and calm, his rich body was straight, "Don't dare to say anything else, making snacks is no worse than any professional chef in our city." I used to want to open my own small shop, but you always said no. Today, with the help of these old neighbors, I told you, and I was done. I don't need you to pay for it, I'll make up for it myself. ”

"Junping, didn't everyone agree just now? You don't need your family to pay for it, you can invest in cooking, and you can agree on how much it is. Jiang Ru said. This suggestion was also made by Qingqing, but it was requisitioned by her namelessly.

"Without Sister Zhao, even if we have the heart to open a restaurant, I'm afraid it won't work." A young girl with big eyes and curved eyebrows, a good appearance, and a very simple dress said.

That is Xi Zijing, twenty-five years old today, and after graduating from university, he was assigned to the construction agency of G City, and his parents are still in the rural areas in the north. The family conditions are not good, but the people are very good. At first, she rented here, but later the house was renovated, and she gritted her teeth and took out a loan to buy this one-bedroom apartment.

Shui Qing knew that although she didn't have a lot of savings, she was bold and careful, and kind. I usually take good care of the neighbor's children, and always help guide homework. So, I also pulled her to a personal scene.

"How many years have I been a neighbor, Junping's craftsmanship is so good that I have nothing to say, Lao Tan and I know best." Mrs. Tan was happy, "When Old Tan was hospitalized with stomach bleeding, Junping sent food every day. After I was discharged from the hospital, Lao Tan told me that he would give Junping rice, thinking that my cooking was not delicious. You think he's healed from a serious illness and he's lost weight. In fact, the appetite is poor and picky. ”

The gray-haired Professor Tan said bluntly, "It took a while to get used to it." ”

"So is our baby. Every time I come back and take them out for snacks, I always say that it is not as delicious as Aunt Junping's. Thirty-eight-year-old Xiao Hangyuan has beautiful eyebrows, a tall physique, and has been going to sea all year round, and his skin is extremely healthy.

Shui Qing was about to speak when she heard the phone ringing. The adults talked energetically, and she answered the phone at her mother's instructions. I just fed it, and there was a familiar, grinning voice in my ears-

"Han Shuiqing, are you still here?"
