Chapter 234: Sticky Rice
To be honest, Xiao Hong didn't expect that she wanted to open a clothing store, but in the end she still opened a lo-mei store.
And business turned out to be good?
She can only comfort herself that the people live on food.
Earning money first should be regarded as the start-up capital for opening a clothing store in the future.
The sisters began to prepare various ingredients for Ming'er.
Clean the bean sprouts and beans, fry the pickles, and cut the remaining five or six catties of pig's head into thin slices.
Today, they have all marinated six pig's heads, and they have only sold so much, and now they are only more than ten degrees in the morning and evening, although it doesn't matter if they sell it overnight.
But if they want to sell their glutinous rice well, they can only rely on the hearty side dishes to attract customers.
The kelp is also shredded, blanched in water, and then fried with oil and chili peppers.
The two sisters cleaned up the same, and Zhao Yancan's child also woke up halfway, and found that he was the only one in the room, and he cried, one of the sisters changed his diaper, and the other made milk powder for him, and then put his younger brother in a bamboo basket with a small quilt, and listened to his babbling sound and continued to work.
After finishing their work, the mother and the sisters had not returned, and after the sisters had soaked the rice, they locked the doors and windows and returned to their residence.
Wu Julan and the others returned home at half past ten with big bags and small bags, they all felt that they had opened their eyes today, and they were afraid of waking up their neighbors, and they didn't dare to say anything, so everyone washed and slept lightly.
The next day, Xiao Hong heard the sound of the alarm clock in a daze, she simply buried her head in the quilt and refused to listen.
Xiao Fang turned off the alarm clock and got up quietly, seeing that Xiao Hong, Zhao Feifei and Yan Yan were still asleep, she hesitated, still didn't call them, and quietly went out to freshen up.
When she opened the door, it was still dark outside, and the kitchen was already dimly lit, and she saw that her grandmother, aunt, and mother were already up in the kitchen.
Wu Julan yawned: "You are also up, you can come over and eat egg noodles." ”
Xiao Fang responded in a low voice: "Okay, let my sister sleep a little longer, right?" Anyway, my sister told me everything. ”
"That's okay," Wu Julan went to serve noodles: "Anyway, it will take an hour to steam glutinous rice, and it doesn't matter if she gets up late." ”
Steaming glutinous rice is the specialty of the eldest aunt and Grandma Zhao.
Now that the New Year is good, everyone will make some rice cakes before the Chinese New Year, and they must first make glutinous rice and japonica rice machine ingredients, and then steam them thoroughly to make rice cakes.
Xiao Fang followed them and listened to them teach her how to steam the rice.
Besides, Xiao Hong fell asleep again, and when she woke up, it was already dawn.
Looking at the watch again, it was ten o'clock, and I could only look at Fei Fei and Yanyan who were still asleep with envy, and I got up quietly.
She didn't wake them up, went to the toilet, brushed her teeth and washed her face, and hurried to the store with the bag full of money.
Both bicycles were ridden away by them, and by the time Xiao Hong walked to the store, it was almost eight o'clock.
When she saw that there were only seven or eight people in the store waiting to buy sticky rice, she had a bad thought: Could it be that the breakfast business is not very good?
Xiao Fang saw her smile very happily: "Sister, you are here, we don't have enough fritters, you took the money from the drawer and went to the store next door to buy another twenty fritters, right?" ”
Xiao Hong took a sip.
They wrote yesterday that they would serve a special breakfast, glutinous rice wrapped with fritters, and meat and vegetables.
Many people here are more accustomed to eating fried dough sticks and soy milk buns in the morning, but when they see the glutinous rice with fried dough sticks and meat, many people change their minds and decide to buy a rice ball for breakfast.
Sweet glutinous rice is cheap, whether it is brown sugar or white sugar, it only costs three dollars.
But sticky rice with fried dough sticks and a slice of pork head costs five dimes.
Of course, you can also add a variety of side dishes to your liking.
Their free side dishes are prepared with more, mustard, radish strips, sauerkraut, bean sprouts, kelp, and chopped chopped beans.
If you want to add more money, you can also add fried eggs and sausages.
Anyway, Xiao Hong came late, and the omelette and sausage had already run out.
When the guests were gone, Xiao Fang said to Xiao Hong excitedly: "In the morning, the four buckets of glutinous rice are almost sold out, and one bucket of glutinous rice can almost wrap about a hundred glutinous rice balls." ”
Xiao Hong also pinched a brown sugar glutinous rice to eat, and let her start settling accounts by the way.
There was a total of 176 yuan, and it cost 40 yuan to remove two bags of glutinous rice, and the fritters were bought from the store next door.
They sold it for a dime, and gave them eight cents a piece, and it cost thirty-two dollars.
Additional omelettes and sausages also cost sixteen bucks.
In addition to the pig's head meat, all kinds of other side dishes are not expensive, they are all a few cents and a few dimes, and at most it is five yuan.
That's about ninety-three dollars.
In other words, you can earn about eighty-three dollars.
After Xiao Fang finished the calculation, he was full of confidence: "I didn't expect this humble business to make so much money." ”
Xiao Hong saw that there was only herself and her sister in front of the counter, so she whispered: "If you can't make money, how can people be willing to do breakfast business?" ”
"You're right." Xiao Fang began to worry about manpower: "We still have to recruit people, now it's grandma and they help, and when they leave, Aunt Six and Aunt Lou can't be busy." ”
"Wait a minute, I'll ask Aunt Six." Xiao Hong also pondered: "It's best to find someone nearby, let's give them the key to the back door, and let them come over every morning to steam glutinous rice." ”
Xiao Fang regretted: "In this way, I will have to have two more salaries." ”
"You can still make money anyway." Xiao Hong stretched out her hand and nodded her forehead: "Don't get into the eyes of money, I still want to have a good business and open a branch next year?" ”
Relatively speaking, opening a lo-mei stew restaurant has little investment, but the income is good.
She remembered in a trance that in her dream, the house price would double, multiple, and rise dozens of times five years later.
She wants to work hard and earn more money for the store, and it is best to buy a piece of land, and after building a house in the future, she can be a charter wife.
Anyway, it doesn't matter if the place is remote, the provincial capital will have a great development in the future, and it will be lively and prosperous no matter where it is.
At this time, Sun Mingzhu and his son and daughter came in.
Xiao Mengqiu sniffed: "It's so fragrant, it's the fragrance of glutinous rice." ”
"Auntie, you're here, please take a seat." Xiao Fang greeted them, and then went to the back to call someone: "I'll call my mother over." ”
Now they're all tinkering with chickens, ducks, and pigs' heads in the backyard, ready to start making lo-mei and stews.
Sun Mingzhu put the bag he brought on the table, looked around, and was a little shocked: "Your house is good, it's big enough, and the decoration is magnificent." ”
At first, she was a little reluctant to let her son work in the store, thinking that it was impossible to make a lot of money in the small shop, and it was not good to say that she would work here.
