After returning to the countryside to farm, I brought the whole village to become rich

Chapter 306 Food Season (3)

Maybe it’s because of the good publicity, or because the crayfish is so charming and popular.

Since noon, guests have been arriving in a steady stream, wave after wave;

The twelve private rooms were full, and the eight small square tables set up in the courtyard were all full;

Guests coming later will have to wait in line.

Shen Qiuqiu is happy but helpless;

I am happy that the business of the farmhouse is booming, with so many guests coming;

Unfortunately, the farmhouse is too small and cannot accommodate so many guests.

Li Meixiang was also very worried, "Sister Xiaohua, the customers outside have been urging me, saying that they came all the way to our ravine, but they ended up having to queue up for a meal. They are very angry. What should I do?"

Shen Qiuqiu thought for a while and said, "Cut a few watermelons and take them out to the guests outside to relieve the heat. Please wait a little while and I will think of a solution."

Most of the guests who came today came for the crayfish;

There are two large pots specially used for frying crayfish in the kitchen, which has basically been done all morning;

There are dozens of kilograms of fried crayfish at any time, and they can be served immediately after customers order. But the problem now is that there is not enough space.

Yang Yanhong’s house next door does have a big yard...

Shen Qiuqiu thought about going over and asking if she could set up a few tables in her yard;

Yang Yanhong was embroidering cross stitch in the small shop. When she saw Shen Qiuqiu coming, she quickly greeted her with a smile, "Here comes the little flower, come in and sit down."

She took a bottle of drink from the counter and handed it to Shen Qiuqiu, "Your farmhouse business is very good today. Cars are coming one after another. You can hardly stop at the door."

The farmhouse business is good, and her small shop can also make some money, selling cigarettes, drinks, popsicles and so on.

Shen Qiuqiu did not follow her around and said directly: "I didn't expect so many people to come today. There is no room to sit inside. I thought about using your yard and setting up a few tables to receive guests."

Yang Yanhong hesitated, and Shen Qiuqiu quickly added: "Of course, we don't borrow it in vain. We will give you a hundred yuan a day in rent, and the yard will be cleaned up for you. Do you think it's okay?"

Yang Yanhong smiled heartily, "Okay, I'll ask my mother to clean up the yard, and you just need to pull the table over."

It was settled here, Shen Qiuqiu called Lin Lei again and asked him to ride a tricycle to the village committee to borrow more than a dozen sets of tables, chairs and benches for village affairs.

The yard of Yang Yanhong’s house is very large and can accommodate fifteen square tables;

Shen Qiuqiu wiped the borrowed tables, chairs and benches clean and asked Li Meixiang to bring the guests over.

It's meal time now, everyone is hungry, and there are no requirements for the environment, as long as they can eat;

Moreover, the environment of Yang Yanhong's home is not bad. The yard is kept very clean, and there are many flowers and green plants planted in the corners, including an old bougainvillea;

Now is the time when the bougainvillea is in full bloom. The trees are full of purple flowers, which are dazzlingly beautiful.

These customers had already ordered their dishes when they were waiting in line;

Not long after they were seated, the dishes began to be served one after another, with crayfish being the first to be served;

Platefuls of red oil agate-like spicy crayfish are served on the table, which makes people's mouths tingle just looking at them.

The crayfish has been soaked in the soup for a while and is already very tasty. The shrimp meat is fresh and firm and tastes particularly fragrant.

Diners showered with compliments;

"Oh my god, it smells so good and delicious."

"I have been thinking about it for several days and finally tried it. It tastes even better than I imagined. It was worth my while to go all the way."

"Not bad, not bad. The crayfish is cooked to a high standard and we didn't have to wait in vain."

"This shrimp is delicious, spicy and fragrant. It is indeed a must-eat series in your life. It's a must-have."

"The chefs here in Shangougou are really good, and the crayfish they cook is really delicious!"

"Don't waste this soup. Let's order some noodles later and eat them with the soup... Oh my god, my mouth is watering just thinking about it."

"In summer, crayfish and beer are a perfect match. It's so refreshing." In addition to crayfish, other dishes were also served one after another;

The taste is not as amazing as crayfish, but it is still delicious.

"His braised pork sausage is pretty good, it doesn't have any weird smell, and it tastes pretty good."

"Try this kidney bean curd, scoop a few spoons of crayfish soup and mix it with it. It tastes amazing."

"This dried mushroom fried rice is too fragrant. No, I have to eat another bowl."

"The cured pork ribs are so fragrant. They must have been pickled by farmers' grain pigs. If you want to eat authentic farm food, you have to come to this big ravine."

There were more than a dozen tables of people sitting in the farmyard, eating and chatting, laughing constantly, and the atmosphere was very lively;

It's like a banquet scene in the countryside.

The guests enjoyed their meal, but Shen Qiuqiu and the others were so busy that they didn't even bother to take a sip of water.

It was busy until about three o'clock before the last table of guests was sent away.

Li Meixiang rubbed her sore calves and complained, "I've been so busy this morning that my legs are almost broken."

Shen Qiuqiu washed crayfish all morning and felt that her waist was very sore;

She discussed with Li Datou, "Uncle Datou, if that doesn't work, please hire a few more helpers. If the business continues to be so good, you and your family of three won't be able to keep up."

Li Datou thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go back and ask someone."

Shen Qiuqiu reminded him again, "Whether you are looking for a temporary job or a long-term job, remember to take someone to apply for a health certificate."

All employees in the catering industry must have a health certificate;

All three members of Li Datou's family have obtained health certificates, as have Shen Qiuqiu, including the temporary dishwasher Grandma Chen.

Shen Qiuqiu has always been cautious on these principled issues;

Li Datou was influenced by her and did not dare to be careless;

"Okay, I'll find them tomorrow and take them to apply for the certificate the day after tomorrow."

Song Na interrupted and said, "Should I also get one so that I can come over and help in the future?"

Shen Qiuqiu said with a smile: "Okay, if you have nothing to do during the summer vacation, you can come over and do odd jobs and let Uncle Big Tou pay you."

"Hehe, no problem." Li Datou smiled honestly.

Speaking of money, Li Meixiang ran to the front desk, opened the cashier system and checked today's turnover;

The little girl couldn't help but exclaimed, "Oh my God, our turnover in half a day today was more than 30,000 yuan."

"What? More than thirty thousand!" Li Datou also looked in disbelief.

Shen Qiuqiu was not surprised at all. More than half of the thousand kilograms of crayfish shipped last night had been sold;

Crayfish will shrink when cooked. A pound of raw crayfish will weigh about eight ounces when cooked;

In other words, the cooked shrimps sold were more than 400 kilograms, forty-five pounds per kilogram, and cost nearly 20,000 yuan;

Wild mushrooms and farm vegetables also sell well, so it is normal to have such a high income.

The catering industry is indeed hard work, but the profits are also high. If the business is good, it can still be very profitable.

When opening the farmhouse, Shen Qiuqiu invested 40,000 yuan;

After operating for less than five months now, she has received a total of 60,000 yuan;

In less than half a year, the capital was recovered and started to make a profit.
