Said Cao Cao Cao arrived, Sun Jingyi walked in with a folding fan, saw Liu Guiyuan coming, didn't even have time to say hello, went straight to the back of the counter, and saw that today's ice powder had not yet arrived, so he could only hold a bowl of half-cold mung bean tea, drank most of it, and spilled a little on his body.

"Miss Guiyuan, you're here, I admire you now, unpalatable pig skin, fish scales that no one wants, you can actually make skin jelly, it's amazing." Sun Jingyi praised Liu Guiyuan, and then said to his cousin: "My father heard that you have two novel cold dishes, let me ask you if you can send some every day, and by the way, send 20 cold tao snail noodles and 20 cold snail noodles." ”

"It's easy to say cold salad, today my mother also said that she wanted to make more, but my uncle's restaurant, I remember that someone would make snail noodles, why did you ask me to send it here?"

Sun Jingxuan was a little puzzled, he remembered that Liu Guiyuan's first time he fried snail soup was in the back kitchen of the restaurant, and the chef knew the method of snail soup, even if it was not as authentic as he did, but he would still make it.

"I didn't do it for a long time, some guests couldn't get used to the smell, saying that the snail powder stinks, if you want me to say that it's not the snail powder smelly, it's the cook who didn't do it well, why don't you smell it? My father said that since the snail noodles you cooked are good, it is better to order them from you if there are customers in the future, okay? “

Sun Jingyi wanted to laugh when he thought of the cook in his restaurant, making snail noodles like pig dung, and his stepmother also asked his cousin how to cook snail noodles, jokes, how could he tell her such a secret?

"Okay, why not, my uncle takes care of my business, why don't I do it, and thank you to Miss Guiyuan, the business in our store is so good, thanks to your idea."

Sun Jingxuan said this sincerely, the business of snail noodles was okay, but when it came to the dog days, eating noodles and noodles were afraid of heat, but it happened that Liu Guiyuan sent ice powder, and then it was the way to eat cold snail noodles, and the best thing was pork skin jelly and fish scale jelly, which were immediately welcomed by the guests as soon as they were made, not only them, but also neighbors loved to buy one or two copies.

In the evening, when the other food shops continue to close, only his foot shop is still brightly lit, and the customers who come out to enjoy the shade like to come to his shop, drink some wine, and order a plate of stir-fried snails or a cold dish or two.

However, while the business in the store is good, there are naturally many imitators, when Sun Jingxuan went out to buy, he found that Qinghe Town had opened several foot shops one after another, and there were two stalls, which also sold snail noodles, but they were not cooked properly.

"I heard that some snail shops don't know how to make soup, so they directly cooked a pot of snail soup to fool the guests."

This is a good guest, told to him as a joke, he really didn't expect that a small bowl of snail noodles would have a day when everyone rushed to imitate and plagiarize.

Liu Guiyuan smelled a trace of danger from this incident, which shows that there are more people who love to eat snail noodles, and more people who see business opportunities from here, but there is only one truly authentic snail powder.

If you want to solve this problem, the best way is to open a few more branches, start the signboard of Sun Luo Shop, and make the snail powder sold in Sun Jiajiao Store a classic that cannot be surpassed by other imitators.

"Brother Sun, have you ever thought about opening a branch? I think our Qinghe Town is so big, at least two more branches can be opened, you can share the skills with the people who open the store, help them choose a location to open a store, teach them how to boil soup and noodles, of course, they have to pay you a tuition, and when they make a profit, they will pay you a part of the money, as for how much money, you can set yourself, how about it? ”

The more Liu Guiyuan thought about it, the more excited he became, staring at Sun Jingxuan with bright eyes, Sun Jingxuan thought about it a little, and said frankly: "I thought about letting my cousin open a store a while ago, but he felt that this was robbing my business. ”

Liu Guiyuan felt that Sun Jingxuan didn't understand what he meant, and what she said about opening a branch was not to teach her relatives to open one or two, but to sell snail noodles to the north and south of the country through technical joining. Anyway, in later generations, there were small shops selling snail flour everywhere.

"Brother Sun, Brother Sun, think about it, this branch can only be opened by your relatives, if it is an honest and reputable peer, you can sign an agreement to stipulate where to open the store, and you must not leak the formula without permission, if you are not at ease, you can state in the agreement, once you find out how much money to compensate."

Liu Guiyuan personally thinks that the matter of opening a branch is quite reliable, of course, you can't be in a hurry at first, you can start with Sun Jingyi, the brother in the lobby, and if he runs well, he will slowly plan to open the next one.

You must know that the profit of opening a branch is not less than that of selling snail powder alone, but this is just Liu Guiyuan's ideas and suggestions, how to implement it, it depends on Sun Jingxuan's ideas, she herself, as long as she guarantees that she can take three ingredients of red from the current foot shop every year.

Liu Guiyuan felt that he had almost said it, packed two cold dishes in his store, took out five pennies and handed them to Sun Jingxuan, who was still stunned, and trotted out of the foot shop with a basket, she didn't want to push Sun Jingxuan back and forth because of a few pennies.

"Brother Lobby, do you think what Miss Guiyuan said makes sense? If you really open a store in Qinghe Town, Fucheng or even further away, then the signboard of my Sun Luo store will become famous! ”

Sun Jingxuan completely figured it out at this time, if he opened multiple branches in multiple places and could collect fixed profits every year, it would be equivalent to him indirectly owning many stores, and he would be equivalent to the owner of these stores, which was promising.

"I think it makes sense, why don't we try it....."

Liu Guiyuan came home, just in time for lunch, the two sisters hadn't eaten yet, and they were all waiting for her to come back and eat together.

Liu Guiyuan raised the basket high and said with a smile: "The pork skin jelly and fish scale jelly are ready, I tasted them just now, but they are delicious, second sister, bring a knife and a plate, I didn't cut it." ”

Liu Guiyuan took the kitchen knife, changed the knife with two swishs on the dining table, put it on a plate, and then adjusted the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, and finally sprinkled a handful of chopped green onions and garlic.

Liu Hongjube sat aside, feeding lotus seeds to eat rice noodles, Liu Guiyuan took a chopsticks of pork skin jelly, followed it with his hands, and sent it to her mouth to eat, asking: "What's the matter, is it delicious?" ”

"It's weird and refreshing, it's good, when our piglets are fed to the New Year, the big one can be killed and eaten, and then we'll freeze those pig skins, and it's good to eat in winter." Liu Hongjube smiled and began to plan to kill pigs for the New Year.

"Don't be in a hurry to kill pigs, eldest sister and second sister, you see that our family is earning money now, wait until one day I have time to build a yard for the family, my grandmother has only been gone for two days, and I am a little unsure when I sleep at night."

Liu Guiyuan was actually worried about Wang Feisan in Sangyu Village, what if his family didn't watch him and sneaked out.

"Gui Yuan's idea is good, you see that the second uncle and the third uncle's house have a small courtyard, just a bare earthen house in our house, and we still live in front of the village, so I feel uncomfortable doing anything."

Liu Huahua listened very much to it, with a small courtyard, the three sisters don't have to panic at night, they can sit in the yard to enjoy the cool, she went to Liu Jindi's house to ask for some flower seeds, and when the time comes, they will be planted in front of the root of the wall, which is beautiful.

"Actually, I want to put aside a new house than to build a yard, we are getting bigger and bigger, and we can't squeeze on a kang every day, I just don't know if the family has enough money." Liu Hongjube said his thoughts.

Liu Guiyuan thought for a while, and said: "Then build a house and a yard, don't worry about the lack of money, now there are about eight taels of silver on hand, and in two months you can almost earn more than 20 taels of silver, and even if the ice powder can't be sold in autumn, we can still think of other ways to make money." ”

Two months according to the amount of eight barrels of ice powder, you can earn forty-eight taels of silver, but you have to give half of it to the dog baby, in addition to this, there are also hiring costs, various sporadic costs, and finally you can have twenty-one taels of silver, which is good.

The three sisters reached an agreement and decided to make good money during this time, and build a side house for the family after autumn, and pull up a courtyard wall outside, so that it would be convenient for the three sisters to do things during the day or rest at night.

After eating, the three sisters were busy with their own work, locked the door, hugged the lotus seeds and went to Liu Jindi's house, in recent days, they usually wash loquat and rub ice powder in Liu Jindi's house in the afternoon, and the children in the village came to change the wild loquat, and they all knew to come here to find her.

When they arrived at Liu Jindi's house, Aunt Gu and the fourth grandmother were squatting under the fig tree, and they had already rubbed a large pot of ice powder. ”

The eldest sister and the second sister all said that they were beautiful, Liu Guiyuan didn't react, and the nail art styles she did in later generations were much more beautiful than this, but Liu Jindi's color was very positive, and it looked quite eye-catching.

"You don't rub ice powder today, have you rested?" Liu Hongzao asked her curiously, she used to work outside at this time.

"I came to Kwai Shui today, my mother didn't ask me to dip in cold water, otherwise how could I have time to dye my nails, who of you wants to dye it, I still have a lot of impatiens juice there, red and purple, do you want to use it?"

Liu Jindi's house planted a lot of impatiens, red, purple, pink and white, and the ones she used to dye her nails were red.

The eldest sister shook her head and said, "Don't, I still have to rub the ice powder, in case it gets stained in the ice powder, it's not good, Sister Jin Di, you're fine, help me look at the lotus seeds." With that, she put the lotus seed on the bed behind her and went out to work by herself.

The second sister Liu Huahua wanted to dye it, but she didn't want to dye her fingernails, but her toenails, so she asked Liu Jindi: "Is it okay for me to dye my toenails, but I still have to work with my hands?" ”

Liu Jindi was so happy that she took her hand and said, "Okay, if you don't say that I have forgotten, my feet are not dyed, I will help you dye it first, and then you will help me dye it later, and you will dye it too, right?" ”

Liu Guiyuan nodded and shook her head, she thought the same as the second sister, dyeing her toenails, and she didn't want to dye her fingernails, for fear of delaying cooking.

"Then you go outside and help me find some mulberry leaves, use that one to wrap your nails and not easy to fade." Liu Jindi wanted to assign her younger brother Jinbao to work, but when she looked up, she didn't know where to play.

"I have a lot of trumpet flowers and leaves for feeding pigs, can I use that?"

Trumpet flower is also called morning glory, with its leaves or mulberry leaves, carob leaves wrapped in nails, the color dyed will not fall off for a long time, she doesn't know what the specific principle is, anyway, these are natural, with no damage to the nails.

That afternoon, Liu Guiyuan and her second sister each had green blades of grass tied to their feet, and the two of them were giggling and rubbing ice powder in the yard, discussing who had the best color.

In the evening, Liu Peanut took the flower juice from Liu Jindi to dye the eldest sister, and the next day, the three of them picked the grass leaves that had been tied overnight, and the six feet were pink, red, and purple, which was very beautiful.
