Zhang Xiuhua looked at Shao Ming, who was a talent, she was also quite jealous of Gu Lianhua, and even secretly thought in her mind that although Gu Lianhua was younger than her, Gu Lianhua was not as beautiful as her, if she could hook up with Shao Ming......

But soon she ran out of thoughts, because ...... There's so much work!

Gu Lianhua is like a shopkeeper, The two young men I saw in the morning were nowhere to be seen this time, and the only people who worked in the huge Shao Ji Restaurant were Gu Hui and Zhang Xiuhua.

After all, Gu Hui is here to help her daughter, so she can't do nothing. But she has been used to stealing chickens and dogs for so many years, and she doesn't work much, and she still thinks that Zhang Xiuhua was hired by them with money, so the burden of the store fell on Zhang Xiuhua all at once.

Zhang Xiuhua is tired and is about to greet their ancestors for the eighteenth generation, but now it is also the time for the family to save money, and she has no way to be a woman, and the popularity of the two of them in the village is not very good......

Forget it, that is, after suffering for a period of time, those who are still in charge of food here can save all the monthly money for a month.

If she worked hard and hard, she believed that Gu Lianhua would have to add some money to her no matter what, so that she would lose face.

Thinking like this, Zhang Xiuhua gritted her teeth and insisted on working. One person is about to turn into three or four people. She is the one who steams the rice, she is the one who burns the fire, she is the one who cuts vegetables, she is the one who stir-fries, and she is the one who washes the dishes.

As for what Gu Hui is doing? Washing vegetables, boiling water, serving, wiping tables outside, greeting guests.

Eat people with a soft mouth, take people with soft hands, this breath, she Zhang Xiuhua endured it first.

Gu Lianhua and Gu Hui were glamorous outside, and Gu Lianhua was disgraced behind her back.

"Fathers and villagers who have passed by and passed by, come in and sit and have a taste!" Gu Lianhua plucked up her courage and shouted at the door.

Her voice can be regarded as a manager, and in an instant, the people walking on the road all looked at her.

Seeing everyone look over, Gu Lianhua continued to speak.

"In order to give back to new and old customers, the restaurant invited the chef who was taught by the same master as Qing Pei Ge, and the taste that Qing Pei Ge can make can also be made, and the price is definitely more affordable than Qing Pei Ge, whether you are a poor man or a rich businessman can consume it in our house! Everyone come and try it, if the taste is different from Qing Peige, we don't need money! ”

Talking nonsense at the top of his voice, whether it tastes good or not, whether it will have problems eating, as long as you enter this door, don't think about going out without spending money.

"Is the price really affordable?"

"Does it really taste the same as Qing Peige?"

An interested person in the crowd asked.

When Gu Lianhua heard someone ask her, she was even more energetic, and she didn't want money to talk outside.

"That's right, Qing Peige sells dishes for 800 Wen, and our family only needs 400 Wen!"

"Is this true?" There were cries of surprise from the crowd.

According to the quotation of this restaurant, it is equivalent to half the price of Qing Pei Pavilion. Although this restaurant is separated from Qing Pei Pavilion by some distance, it is still on the same street, and the customer groups can be said to be highly overlapped.

"That's right! Don't ask me why it's so cheap! Gu Lianhua shouted hoarsely, "The question is that we only want to bring benefits to the villagers, and we will definitely not make a penny from everyone!" We only charge a cost price, even ...... Even if we would rather lose money, we want to benefit everyone!! ”

Gu Lianhua almost believed what she said.

And at this time, the old lady who had implemented Gu Lianhua that day also stood up and proved it for Gu Lianhua.

"Everyone listened to my wife's words, when there were no guests in this restaurant that day, this little girl saw that I was a poor old woman, and gave me a plate full of freshly fried dishes. Isn't that kindness? Kind girl, you will be rewarded! ”

The old lady took the dish home, and her little granddaughter ate half of it, and she ate the rest of the bites. I didn't wait for the food to stay overnight or cool down completely, I really couldn't see any clues.

However, the only fly in the ointment is that the grandparents and grandchildren have pulled their stomachs for a day. The old lady adhered to the principle of finding the cause of the problem first, and attributed this to the fact that she and her granddaughter had not eaten such a large amount of oil and water for a long time, and their stomach was not very adaptable. She didn't think about whether there was a problem with the dish at all.

The old lady has been here for a long time, and everyone basically knows about her situation. Now that she came out to say this, she was even more convinced of Gu Lianhua's words.

They stared at each other with wide eyes. His eyes were full of disbelief, oh my God, there are really such good people in this world! It's like a living bodhisattva in the world!

It's really a blessing to meet such a conscientious little proprietor!

Then, someone in the crowd took the lead and rushed into the restaurant to start ordering. Gu Hui and Gu Lianhua hurriedly went to work, but Zhang Xiuhua was really busy, and she couldn't get out of the kitchen in the back.

She felt that she was going to finish all the dishes of her life on this day.

When someone beckoned to try the roast duck, Gu Hui hurriedly ran into the kitchen to roast others. Gu Lianhua is responsible for cooking for others, which can be regarded as the easiest job in it.

I didn't expect everyone to be so enthusiastic, there were too many guests, and Gu Lianhua and Gu Hui were a little inadequate for a while. But you can't call Zhang Xiuhua out of the back kitchen, otherwise who will cook the dishes......

So, Gu Lianhua spoke again to calm everyone's emotions.

"In order to minimize the cost, we have not hired anyone to give you the best price. It's my mother, my neighbors, and I, who are busy working here. ”

"We understand! It's okay little proprietor! The people in the crowd responded to Gu Lianhua's words.

For them, it's okay to wait a little longer, as long as the price is right. Even in Qingpeige, you have to wait in line to catch up with the meal.

Looking at the full store, Gu Lianhua and Gu Hui both showed satisfied smiles.

Vegetables and meat, she picks up the most inferior ones, and the oil is cheaper, and rounding it up is equivalent to no money. The restaurant is also ready-made, as for the early stage, Shao Ming also said that she should not share it, as long as she can open the business of the restaurant, this money should be her hard work.

Now the biggest expense of the entire restaurant is the salary paid to Zhang Xiuhua......

"Owner, your family's cooking skills are good! I taste this smell even more fragrant than that of Qing Peige! While eating, a diner gave a thumbs up to Gu Lianhua and Gu Hui.

His description is not wrong, according to the principle, it is indeed more fragrant to use used oil to stir-fry than to use new oil.

One is because the old oil already contains the flavor of the previous stir-frying, and the other is because the oil will produce trans fatty acids after high temperatures, and the more oil is used, the higher the trans fatty acid content will be, which will stimulate people's taste buds and tell the brain that this thing is really delicious.

Therefore, there is a limit to the number of times the oil can be used, and it is best not to use it more than twice, so that there will be no harm to human health. Gutter oil not only contains a lot of trans fatty acids, but also other carcinogens.

Excessive consumption of gutter oil may cause poisoning in the short term, and may cause cancer in the long term.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiuhua is used to being poor, and she is reluctant to put too much oil in cooking, so the possibility of problems in the short term is relatively small.

"When my family eats happily, I'm happy!"

Gu Lianhua smiled at the diners who praised her, but Gu Hui frowned. It's just that the business in the store is too good at this time, and she doesn't have time to ask Gu Lianhua, so she can only continue to work.

When the guests in the store were gone, Gu Hui didn't even care about the money, so she pulled Gu Lianhua aside and asked in a low voice.

"Lianhua'er, why are the things in our store sold so cheaply? Can this make money? Gu Hui looked worried.

"Mother, didn't I say it just now, just charge everyone's cost price, beat our reputation first, and overwhelm Qing Peige in momentum. Bring all the guests over first. Gu Lianhua said justifiably.

Gu Hui's face was full of disbelief, would her daughter really go to that loss-making business? She couldn't believe it.

"Mother, don't think about it so much, it's all dependent on Brother Shao Ming's care, let's definitely not lose." Gu Lianhua prevaricated.

"You tell me the truth." Gu Hui looked serious. Knowing her daughter Mo Ruomu, the more Gu Lianhua avoided this topic, the more she felt that there was a big problem here.

couldn't stand her mother's questioning, Gu Lianhua finally told Gu Hui half-truthfully, but what she said was using the remaining oil from Qing Peige.

As soon as Gu Hui heard this, she felt a tumbling in her stomach, and she was even more panicked in her heart, she knew that she wouldn't eat in the morning, so she was hungry. However, after the diaphragm was finished, Gu Hui held Gu Lianhua's hand again, and instructed with a nervous face: "Lianhua'er, does anyone else know about this?" ”

"And the two little guys sent by Brother Shao." Gu Lianhua said disapprerovitically.

Gu Hui's brows furrowed even more.

"Are they reliable? Forget it, forget it, now that you know, you tell them not to talk about it. My mother won't tell anyone about this. By the way, don't talk to Zhang Xiuhua. ”

"Mother, I understand, don't worry."

On this matter, the mother and daughter have a high degree of unanimity, and there is almost no disagreement.

Zhang Xiuhua finished her work in the back kitchen, and she was not polite, so she added a dish to herself and devoured a big bowl of rice. After she finished eating, she came out with the kettle and poured a glass of water for Gu Hui's mother and daughter, who were counting the copper coins.

"Sister Hui, Lotus, I'm tired all morning. You drink saliva first, tell me what you want to eat, and I'll make it for you. ”

Gu Lianhua and Gu Huiniang, who knew the truth, rejected Zhang Xiuhua in unison.

"Embroidery, don't be busy, you've been working hard for most of the day, just rest quickly, let's just come by ourselves." Gu Hui said politely.

"Yes, you've been busy for so long, it must be very hard, you can rest quickly." Gu Lianhua echoed.

Zhang Xiuhua was not polite to them, she was really tired, when she thought that there was a "hard battle" to fight at dinner, she was one head and two big. I'm really going to tire her out, for the sake of money and food, she will do it first.

After Zhang Xiuhua went to rest, after Gu Hui's mother and daughter counted the money, Gu Lianhua first put it into her own pocket, and said in a beautiful name: "Mother, I'll take it all first, and when I finish sharing it with Brother Shao, I'll take the rest back." ”

So many copper coins, before they were hot in Gu Hui's hands, they went into Gu Lianhua's pocket. But what Gu Lianhua said was quite reasonable, Gu Hui could only nod her head in agreement, but she was very greedy in her heart.

At noon, Gu Qing found that Qing Peige, which was full every day, didn't look good today, and she didn't care much about it. After all, it is normal to open the door to do business, sometimes good and sometimes bad. But in the evening, she found that the store's turnover was only half of yesterday's.

Gu Qing immediately got into it, even if the money made in the store was not the same every day, there was always a fixed range. This is suddenly a lot less, and everyone has to start looking for the reason.

It happened that Miss Song came to Qingpei Pavilion in the evening today, Gu Qing thought about it and asked her first, if Miss Song didn't know, then she would go out to find out what the situation was.

As a result, she immediately asked something.

As soon as Gu Qing spoke, Miss Song immediately spoke.

"Gu Niangzi, I heard that the restaurant invited your fellow senior brother of the chef of Qingpeige to cook, the food they sell today is similar to yours, and the taste is almost the same, but ......"

Miss Song changed her words and whispered, "The price over there is almost half of what you have here!" Today, many guests who originally planned to come to Qingpei Pavilion for dinner have gone over there. ”

Miss Song shook her head as she spoke, not looking too much for the restaurant.

"The things you have here are genuine, and the taste, the quantity, and the environment deserve the price. But at her price, she can't sell it at a loss? Miss Song said with a look of disapproval.

Regardless of what the new fat owner said, there was an old lady who testified to how kind she was, she just didn't believe it.

Miss Song was born in a businessman, so she naturally knows the way to do business. If you come out to do business, if you don't want to make money, what are you trying to do? No one really wants to do a loss-making business, right?

Such a person either has a problem with his brain or has ulterior motives. However, between the two, Miss Song prefers to believe in the latter.

At this time, there was a place not far from Qingpei Pavilion that made things that highly overlapped with Qingpeige, and the most important thing was that the price was much lower than that of Qingpeige. This made Gu Qing and the others not think about it, after all, this was too obvious.

Isn't this malicious competition?

Most of the people who came to Minqing Peige to eat today are still some old customers, most of them are used to eating Qingpeige, and a restaurant with the same taste as Qingpeige suddenly appeared, and many people still have a wait-and-see attitude. In addition, there are still more varieties and dishes in Qingpeige, and there will not be no customers all of a sudden.

Listening to Miss Song fighting for Qing Peige, Gu Qing smiled gratefully.

"Don't worry too much, time will tell."

Really good things can stand the temper of time, and those that violate the law will eventually destroy themselves.

Unless the owner of this restaurant is in a panic because of the money, he has nothing to do, and he opens a shop to pass the time, otherwise, the boss has an ulterior purpose!

I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year's Eve, is your Chinese New Year's Eve 23 or 24? The New Year in my hometown is the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, and our custom here is that on the day of the New Year, we must go to the ancestral grave to burn paper money for the ancestors, which is also called burning New Year paper, not to mention cleaning.
