Chapter 25 Shortage of Manpower
So he casually took a piece of double cake run, and when he took a bite, he was shocked, "Huh! It tastes really good, better than buying in a department store. ”
When Su Yu heard this, she was also stunned, tasted it, and had to admit that the other party's double cake was well done, and then she tasted a piece of lard peanut cake, and found that the lard peanut cake sold by Lin Liqing had a different crust from the outside, and it was strong and elastic, and it would not fall off a body of scum when you bite it.
Her son and sister-in-law heard the sound, and the two of them each took a garlic branch and gnawed happily, the crispy sound hooked the appetite of the old man Huang, don't look at him old, but his teeth are excellent, and it will be no problem to gnaw on the garlic branch for a few more years.
The child ate a garlic branch and took a sweet potato slice, and after taking a bite, he jumped on the spot several times with joy, "Grandpa, Mom and Dad, this is so delicious, so delicious, I want to ..... it."
Seeing him like that, Su Yu directly took a piece and broke it open, and several adults tasted a few bites.
In the end, Su Yu had to admit that Lin Liqing's craftsmanship was really good, no wonder the business was so hot.
At this time, the jealousy and unwillingness of the two of them have disappeared, only admiration from the bottom of their hearts, no wonder they dare to spend so much money to open a store, if they come, they are afraid that they can lose all their family funds.
With this self-knowledge, the Huang family returned to its former peace.
The other people in the family building who bought the dim sum made by Lin Liqing were also pleasantly surprised, thinking that the dim sum in her store was cheaper than the department store, the taste was good, and it was fresh, so they would buy it from her in the future.
Lin Liqing didn't know what those people thought, after she set the amount of a few snacks needed, she glanced at the watch that Lin Changmin gave her, the time was still early, hurry up and turn on the fire, and at the same time make snacks, she can also roast banana chips and dried sweet potatoes by the way, so that she can get up later tomorrow.
The busy time passed very quickly, and it was almost ten o'clock when she looked at her watch again, Lin Liqing hurriedly cleaned up the back kitchen, and made sure that the fire in each stove was extinguished before going up to the second floor.
There is a window on the side of the road on the second floor of the room, and now every household has no habit of installing curtains, Lin Liqing asked Lin Changmin to use bamboo to get a bamboo curtain for her, which can be opened at night to block the view from the outside.
The first thing she did when she came up with a kerosene lamp was to bolt the door of the room first, and then put down the bamboo curtain, and then she poured the money bag down, and began to count the money until her hand cramped.
To be honest, she thought about making a lot of money today, but she didn't think it would be so much, according to the pricing, a pack of garlic branches with four two cents, double cake run one pound and five cents, white fragrant cake one and three cents, pillow cake one pound and five cents, lard peanut cake one pound and six cents, mung bean cake and other pastries are all one pound and five cents, banana slices are the same price, sweet potato slices are also five cents a pound, and mochi is relatively cheap, one five cents.
It stands to reason that all I should receive is one yuan or a few cents, but I didn't expect that there were two big solidarity in it, and there were more than a dozen five yuan, and one yuan was piled up into a hill, and one corner and two corners let her count to the chaos, and the score pile was on the line.
After the final count, there were a total of 237 yuan and nine cents and five cents in the money bag, and the net profit after deducting costs was more than 100 yuan, which was just a day's income.
Thinking of this, her heart is hot, and the repayment of debts is just around the corner!
She almost lost sleep that night because she was so excited, and the next morning she got up at five o'clock to continue her work, and couldn't help but put snacks like mung bean cake to be made and sold.
She didn't open the store until seven o'clock in the morning, and she didn't do any activities today, thinking that business would be colder, but who knew that someone was waiting in the morning.
Lin Liqing was stunned for a moment when she took off the wooden board, "You are ....."
"Boss, you can buy something!" The first lady asked a little anxiously.
Everyone rushed in, scaring Lin Liqing into a cold sweat, and hurriedly said: "Wait a while, everyone is here to buy something, line up, line up first, come one by one, I'm alone, I can't greet so many people." ”
As she spoke, she directly moved a square table the size of a desk to block the storefront, took a tray, and took some of all the snacks and put them on the table.
The eldest lady chose pillow cakes and white incense cakes, paid and left quickly, Lin Liqing found that her vegetable basket was full, and she couldn't help but praise in her heart - hard-working people!
Most of the old men and aunts in the back buy double cakes or mung bean cake pillow cakes and white fragrant cakes, middle-aged people love lard peanut cakes and mochi, which can be used as refreshments, young people, especially children, see banana slices and sweet potato slices on their eyes and can't walk.
Lin Liqing has been busy selling dim sum since she opened half of the store in the morning, and when she can finally take a breath, she finds that it is already more than ten o'clock, and everyone has to go back to prepare lunch at this point, she hasn't eaten breakfast yet, miscalculated! You can only eat two pastries with warm water.
Chen Meiyun came over with Xu Huilin Guosheng in the afternoon, and it seems that the two of them should have picked her up by the way when they returned to the village.
The three of them asked, knowing that Lin Liqing was surrounded by customers again in the morning, and she couldn't even take care of breakfast, happy and worried about her body at the same time.
"Sister-in-law, you can't do this, I need two people to do that meat stall, I think there are at least three people in this shop to be busy, and there are no three people and two people, and one person will definitely not be able to withstand it." Xu Hui said seriously.
Chen Meiyun also nodded vigorously, pondering, "Why don't I discuss with your father and come over to help you?" ”
"What about the kid? Dad can't take care of it alone. Lin Liqing frowned worriedly.
Lin Guosheng pondered: "Why don't I ask the director of the slaughterhouse to see if I can let Ah Chao go to the factory-run kindergarten, if Ah Chao can go to the kindergarten, my mother can also come to the city to help." ”
The slaughterhouse and the farm jointly set up a kindergarten, mainly to take care of the children, Lin Guosheng and Xu Hui's two children are going to junior high school, the quota is not used, and giving the director some gifts should be able to stuff Yan Mingchao into study.
"Wouldn't my parents be separated!" Lin Liqing was reluctant to do this.
Xu Hui sighed, "There is no way if there are not enough people. ”
Lin Liqing pondered for a while, gritted her teeth and said: "Why don't you ask the second sister-in-law and see if she is willing to come over to help me for two or three months, I will pay her a salary, and wait for Jianguo to come back to see the situation." ”
Chen Meiyun pondered the feasibility of this matter, and nodded slowly after a while, "That's okay, I'll go tell her, but your second sister-in-law still has to take care of the family, at most she will help you this year, and you still have to think of something else after the New Year." ”
Yu Xiaoping's two children have to take care of them when they are in elementary school, and there is a lot of farm work at home, as well as extra money to help Lin Liqing buy bananas and sweet potatoes to earn, Chen Meiyun knows that Yu Xiaoping is probably not very happy to leave the village.
