Chapter 38: The First Day of Opening
Early the next morning, when Zhao Yunlan got up, Xiaobao was still dreaming of eating candy, and her saliva was dripping! Zhao Yunlan gently carried Xiaobao to Wang's side to continue sleeping, and when she came out, she went to the kitchen to look at the pot of soaked tea eggs, Zhao Yunlan scooped a few eggs out, boiled them again, and gave them to the Li brothers and sisters.
"Sister-in-law, this tea egg is so fragrant" Li Mingmei swallowed her saliva when she smelled the taste, and couldn't wait to eat it.
"Leave a few for Daddy and Daddy, and we'll get ready to go." The egg was served in the car along with the pot. Zhao Yunlan instructed Li Mingyi and Li Mingli.
The pot of eggs and soup was still very heavy, and Li Mingli and Li Mingyi took it aside and put it on the car.
Zhao Yunlan thought: I have to buy another casserole in the shop.
The five of them packed up and drove the ox cart to the town.
Yesterday, Zhao Yunlan said that she would go for an hour early, probably because the opening was in her heart, Zhao Yunlan got up earlier, and the Li brothers and sisters also got up early for some reason, so everyone set off earlier than the original time.
"We went to the shop and cooked a bowl of noodles to eat. I'm so busy today. Zhao Yunlan spoke, looking at the dark sky.
At home, the Wang family and Old Man Li also got up, "Hey, I don't know what the situation is when it opens today?" ”
Old man Li: "Don't worry, I believe in the eldest daughter-in-law, it's still early, let's rest for a while!" ”
Wang tucked the quilt for Xiaobao and lay down again.
The ox cart was swaying and walking, and it was already getting some daylight. Zhao Yunlan arrived at the shop.
Several people hurriedly packed up their things and placed them in their positions, Zhao Yunlan set up a fire on one side and warmed the pot of tea eggs, and on the other side took out the flour and prepared the pot helmet. Li Mingyi was cooking hot and sour noodles for everyone next to him, and Li Mingzhi took the prepared wooden board and wrote "Li Ji hot and sour noodles, give back to new and old customers, three days before the opening, three articles on hot and sour noodles." ”
Li Mingli and Li Mingmei plugged in all the tables, chairs and benches and boiled a pot of hot water.
The five of them finished eating the noodles and waited for the guests to come to the door.
"Second brother, third brother, greet a few voices at the door of the store, and talk about the tea eggs and pot helmets we launched." Zhao Yunlan instructed the two of them.
The second and third children instantly understood, and one person came one by one: "Li Ji hot and sour noodles, reopen." Three days before the opening, the hot and sour noodles were served in a bowl of three words. ”
"There are also new pot helmets and tea eggs, objectively please."
"In the first three days, if you spend more than 20 yuan in our store, you will be given a new snack tea egg."
"Objectively please, please, please~"
Guests came one after another.
"What is this tea egg?" A man asked.
"The guest officer may wish to try, one of the three articles." Li Mingli said
"Okay, let's have one."
At the other table, Li Mingming was heard shouting: "Table B, full of twenty wen, give a tea egg." "Table B is a husband and wife, and the two of them ordered a bowl of hot and sour noodles, a bowl of noodles, and three pot helmets."
The man over there was eating tea eggs: "There is a smell of tea, no wonder it is called tea eggs, it smells fragrant, it tastes good, give me two in a while, I will take it home and give it to my wife to taste." ”
"Gotcha, guest officer"
After being busy for more than two hours, "Second brother, I'm loading three tea eggs," Li Mingli ran over and said.
Li Mingming followed, "I also want two tea eggs here." ”
Li Mingyi took a look: "The tea eggs are sold out, sister-in-law, what can I do." ”
Zhao Yunlan was silent for a moment, "Go and tell the guests that the tea eggs have been sold out today." If there are guests who spend 20 yuan, give them a reduction of 2 yuan, and tell them to come back tomorrow to get tea eggs. Let the little sister make a registration, check with the guests one by one, and make a mark. ”
"Yes, sister-in-law."
Several people continued to get busy, only fifty tea eggs were prepared, Zhao Yunlan was afraid that it would not be good to accept it at first, and this tea egg could not be boiled one by one.
I didn't expect this tea egg to sell so well today, and the guests had to pack it back after eating it in the store.
The pork pot helmet launched today is also selling well, and after Li Mingyi took over the task of making noodles, he never stopped, and his arms were weak.
Zhao Yunlan was also sweating profusely in front of the stove.
Li Mingmei was also in a hurry to collect money at the counter, and she received it wrong several times, and the whole person was dizzy.
Li Mingming and Li Mingli couldn't stop their legs at all.
The five of them were busy until the end of the day, and everyone was tired and didn't want to clean up, so they sat on the bench and refused to move.
After resting for half an hour, Zhao Yunlan felt relieved, "Let's clean up when we have enough rest, second brother, you go buy some tea and spices, and then buy a stove." Oh, there's also a casserole, my sister's accounts are closed, and the copper coins collected today will be counted and packed again. I'll go and clean up the stove, third brother and fourth brother, you can clean up these tables and chairs. ”
The five of them got busy again.
When Li Mingyi came back from shopping, Zhao Yunlan had already sat for a while.
"Why did the second brother go for so long?" Li Mingming asked,
"I went to buy eggs, I was afraid that there were not enough eggs at home, so I went to collect some eggs, and my sister-in-law's egg money was still owed, so I would pay some more money to others."
"Well, how much is it missing?"
"Six hundred texts."
"Na, give, buy a few more buns and come back, everyone who is busy has no time to eat, and I don't want to move when I'm tired, eat a few buns and everyone pad your stomach."
"Okay, sister-in-law."
On the ox cart: "How do you feel that this bun is especially delicious today, it is more fragrant than the first time I ate it." ”
"That's when we worked very hard today, and the more we give, the more we gain." Zhao Yunlan responded.
Several people sat on the ox cart, happily eating steamed buns, and swayed all the way home.
"Go and tell the village chief, we have borrowed ox carts these days, and these fifty wen will be given to the village chief, and we must not push it back." Zhao Yunlan instructed Li Mingyi.
Li Mingyi: "Well, sister-in-law, I know. ”
"Dad, mother, we're back."
Old man Li and the Wang family hurriedly came out, "Can you count it back, how about today?" ”
Zhao Yunlan: "Let's go into the house and say." ”
A few people entered the house, and everyone sat down and didn't want to stand up again. Wang added water to a few children, and everyone was gurgling.
Li Mingmei drank two bowls of water, held a small box, and shook it a few times.
Old man Li: "Don't be tired like this, hurry up." ”
Li Mingzhi said evilly: "Dad, you have to hold on." ”
Old man Li slapped it over: "If you talk nonsense, Lao Tzu will whip you." ”
Li Mingming smiled.
Zhao Yunlan: "Wait for the second brother, we'll talk together when he comes back." Dad, mother, I won't do it tonight, I bought steamed buns and came back, I went to warm it up first, and ate steamed buns at night. ”
Li Mingmei: "Sister-in-law, I'll go with you." ”
Li Mingyi came back, and Zhao Yunlan shouted: "Come and eat steamed buns first and rest for a while." ”
Old man Li's heart was as uncomfortable as scratching an itch.
