Escape to farming: Fortunately, I have a portable supermarket

Chapter 97 The new store opens!Ka Wah Dim Sum Shop

"Uncle, don't worry, I can still cheat you. We will not sell this finished product until you get it to the banquet. I guarantee that yours will be the first one.

Besides, we will also sell these snacks to your family, but we are newcomers, so please take care of them. "

Ye Mingqin's words not only solved the worries of shopkeeper Li, but also expressed his own needs.

In the final analysis, it is still the hierarchical system of this society. Scholars, farmers, businessmen, Ye Mingqin and the others no matter how big their business is, as long as they stay in this business class, they are destined to be suppressed.

They are newcomers and they don't have a backer, so they can only ask the shopkeeper Li more. After all, the highest-ranking person Ye Mingqin knows is the shopkeeper Li.

Besides, according to Ye Mingqin's understanding, the largest shops in Yunfeng City are owned by several high-ranking officials in Yunfeng City. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to dominate in various industries under such a hierarchical system. So many years.

As for who is behind this family, Ye Mingqin is not sure.

"That's a good relationship. If anyone makes things difficult for you, you can report me the title of shopkeeper of Qingfenglou, but you should pay more attention, because I can't afford to offend some people."

Shopkeeper Li really wants to protect Ye Mingqin. He has never married, and Ye Mingqin is a girl who suits him well. Moreover, the siblings have tragic backgrounds. As long as it is within the ability, it is not impossible to protect them. .

"With your words, I feel at ease. Don't worry, I will definitely deliver any new products to you in the future. I will definitely let you release new products before our store!"

With shopkeeper Li's accurate answer, Ye Mingqin was relieved a lot, and at the same time told herself in her heart that she had to ask her brother to study hard and wait for the imperial examination to resume. She, who grew up in a socialist society, couldn't bear it. Such a class life.

"Then let's talk about the egg yolk cake first. How do you plan to sell this egg yolk cake?" Shopkeeper Li is still a businessman after all, and in the end he quickly brought the attention of several people back to the business.

"Let's count it in pieces, Uncle Li, how much is appropriate."

Ye Mingqin has always firmly believed that at this time, except for the close relatives, all other relationships are based on interests.

So she handed over the initiative to shopkeeper Li. After all, she had something to ask for, and she couldn't just give nothing to her. Besides, she believed that shopkeeper Li would not lower the price too low.

"I also know that it's not easy for you to make this egg yolk cake, but uncle also needs to make some money, otherwise he won't be able to explain to the owner."

This is the first time shopkeeper Li has mentioned the owner of Qingfenglou. The implication is that he is telling Ye Mingqin that he can be sure that the business between the two stores will continue.

If Ye Mingqin had any minor troubles, he could ask his boss to come forward to protect her, but the price might not be too high.

"I know all this, uncle, you can just say it."

Ye Mingqin is not stupid. The shopkeeper Li didn't directly grab their prescription because of their past friendship and the fact that she can give them red crayfish in the future. After all, Fangzi is easy to grab, but this red crayfish But it's not easy to raise.

And since she can hand over the initiative to Shopkeeper Li, she is already ready for him to lower the price.

"How about this, a small piece of egg yolk cake like this is only two yuan a piece, as for the other dim sum later, we can wait until we see the finished product."

"Liu Wen..." Ye Lou exclaimed, but immediately received warning eyes from his sister, and then abruptly changed his tone, "Liu Wen is good! It's so suitable, thank you Uncle Li for your care!"

Shopkeeper Li looked at Ye Lou strangely, he always felt that this kid didn't look like his elder brother, but Ye Mingqin was much more stable than him.

Shopkeeper Li looked at Ye Mingqin again, alas, girl, don't blame Uncle for lowering the price, after all, if the profit is not much, I can't persuade the boss to protect you!
But shopkeeper Li didn't say these words clearly. It's good to keep some words in your heart, but it's not good to say them out. Besides, he believes that with Ye Mingqin's ingenuity, he will be able to figure out the reason.

Then shopkeeper Li asked Xiaoer to come out and order some light snacks. The total was 390 yuan. Shopkeeper Li calculated 400 yuan and only sold eight taels of silver in total.

On the other hand, the bucket of red crayfish and the bucket of snails sold for 160 taels, which makes egg yolk cakes really cheap in comparison.

Ye Lou hadn't spoken since he was warned by his sister, until the two walked out of Qingfeng Tower for a long distance.

"I'm so pissed off, why doesn't he go to rob people, two cents and one yuan, we are doing their work for nothing!"

"It's not for nothing."

"It's not Baigan. Don't say that the flour is produced by ourselves. If it wasn't for us, we would lose even more."

"That's used to pay the protection fee. Do you think shopkeeper Li has much power as a shopkeeper? The one with power is the people behind Qingfenglou. The protection fee is not much. Who do you think will help you?" Ye Mingqin looked at it. clear.

"If someone pays the protection fee, let's leave some for him. It's good for him, he won't keep any!" Ye Lou knew that it was protection fee, but the protection fee was too much. How many goods, it will definitely lose money if it goes on like this.

"This counts as the protection fee paid, and the latter can't be so low." Ye Mingqin told his brother what he thought.

Ye Lou breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what his sister said. He was really afraid that his sister would blindly give in for this so-called backer.

He doesn't care about money, he cares about his sister, who farms the land and makes cakes by himself, and his sister has never done these things since she was a child.

What's important is that with such a big circle, the benefits of the things that are made end up in other people's pockets.

After this incident, Ye Lou secretly made up his mind to go back and start studying hard, and he will take part in the imperial examination as soon as it resumes. He will never let his sister live this kind of life again.

His younger sister's hands are used to cure diseases and save lives, and to do what she likes, not to farm the land and make cakes.

"Okay, okay, we're going back soon, make the cake and send it over, and we can make a good fortune later."

Ye Mingqin didn't know that his brother had already started to work hard in his heart, and thought he was still angry.

She knew that her brother loved her dearly, so she temporarily put aside the matter of persuading her brother to study hard.

Ye Lou was angry with shopkeeper Li, of course he would not vent his anger on his own sister, so Ye Mingqin put away all the unhappiness on his face as soon as he said it.

After returning home, Ye Mingqin went into the clean warehouse to make cakes by himself.

The reason why she wanted to go in was not because she was afraid that her skills would be learned away, but because she herself was not sure of a success. She went to the warehouse to make sure that if she couldn't make it in the end, she could take out a ready-made one from the space to make up for it.

Long before Ye Mingqin and the others went to Qingfenglou, Ye Mingqin told Song Zixin to add the carrot powder, green vegetable powder and red bean powder that they had dried and ground before to the cream to ensure that the cake was not all white. of a slice.

After Ye Mingqin worked hard in the warehouse for half an hour, he found that it was really a clear choice for him to do it in the warehouse.

Because she found that mounting flowers is really different from using a scalpel, even if she can make flowers with a scalpel, she still can't handle flower mounting.

In the end, because he was worried that the delay would be too long, Ye Mingqin had no choice but to take out a six-inch small cake from the space, put it on a wooden tray, and walked out.

"Wow! Sister, this cake is so beautiful!" Ye Mingqin had just walked out of the storeroom when Song Zixin greeted her, looking at the cake on the tray with sparkling eyes.

"This has to be delivered to shopkeeper Li first, and I'll make it for you when I get back!"

Then Ye Mingqin called his brother to deliver the cake to Shopkeeper Li.

"Girl, how on earth did you come up with this method?" Shopkeeper Li looked carefully at the yellow and red flowers and green leaves on the cake, and asked in amazement.

"Just thinking about it!" Ye Mingqin said with some embarrassment, this is not pretending, but because this is really not what she came up with, and being praised because of other people's achievements, Ye Mingqin is a little embarrassed to be true .

"What's the name of this dim sum?" Shopkeeper Li didn't ask the bottom line, but asked another question.

"It's called cake!" Ye Mingqin couldn't think of any other name, so she used its original name. At this moment, she couldn't help but rejoice that she didn't call that kind of cake directly before, otherwise she would probably I have to think about the name for a long time.

"Yes, girl, you go back and wait for my news first, I have to send this to Butler Bai to see if it works, I have to wait for Butler Bai to speak.

But don't worry, even if it doesn't work, we will accept your dim sum! Also, you will send me 400 yuan for the egg yolk cake every day from now on! "

Shopkeeper Li assured Ye Mingqin.

"Then Mingqin will wait for good news from you, Uncle." Ye Mingqin bowed to shopkeeper Li.

"Come on, your small shop will open tomorrow, and uncle has nothing to give you. Take this abacus. I hope you will have a lot of money in the future. Even if you make money, the abacus will not count."

Shopkeeper Li took a good-looking abacus from the little second hand and handed it to Ye Mingqin.

"Then I will borrow my uncle's good words!" Ye Mingqin bowed again.

When the waiter at the side saw his shopkeeper give Ye Mingqin the abacus he had just bought back, he couldn't help secretly sighing how kind his shopkeeper was to this little girl.

You must know that just now, my shopkeeper suddenly asked me to buy an abacus, and said I wanted the best one. I was secretly surprised, thinking that my shopkeeper's abacus was broken, but I didn't expect it to be for this little girl.

Realizing that the shopkeeper took extra care of Ye Mingqin and the others, the waiter secretly made up his mind that if Ye Mingqin and the others come to the store again in the future, he must treat them well. After all, this is the person who cares about his shopkeeper.

The cake had already been handed over to Shopkeeper Li, so the brother and sister had nothing to do. After bidding farewell to Shopkeeper Li, they went back to the shop.

"This person slaps him first and then gives him a sweet date!" Ye Lou couldn't help complaining after coming out of Qingfenglou.

"Don't say that, shopkeeper Li is a good person!" Ye Mingqin was a little dissatisfied with his brother's words about shopkeeper Li. After all, although the relationship between the two is based on interests, it is undeniable that shopkeeper Li has indeed helped them a lot.

Before I moved to a new house, I gave a big pot, and now I gave this abacus, which is considered very considerate.

"Cut!" Ye Lou dismissed his sister's words, just that old man, just after cheating himself, he wanted to use an abacus and just perfunctory, it was too good to think!
"No, you have to give me another piece of that cake, I'll give it to Brother Mu to taste tomorrow!" Ye Lou said suddenly.

Ye Mingqin: ...Your brother Mu who has only spoken a few words is better than the shopkeeper Li whom I have known for several months?
"The better one is the one that won't be sold!"

Ye Mingqin: ...and so many demands...

But Ye Mingqin didn't say anything in the end, just picked a piece of mousse cake from the space and handed it to his brother.

Ye Lou looked at the delicate little cake handed over by his sister, and then nodded in satisfaction.

After returning home, Ye Mingqin first fulfilled his previous promise to Song Zixin, went to the warehouse to tinker for a while, and based on the principle of not wasting food, brought out the cake that he failed to make earlier and shared it with everyone.

He said it was a failure, but in fact it was just that the mounted flowers had collapsed, so Song Zixin still fully expressed his admiration for the cake, which made Ye Mingqin very embarrassed.

Because a batch of cakes was sent away, Ye Mingqin and the others rushed to make a few more batches of cakes before going to rest after dinner.

The next day it was only dawn, and the four of them got up early.

After everyone had a bowl of rice noodles, Ye Mingqin brought the four of them together for a short meeting.

"Zixin, when the time comes, you will be in charge of collecting money and hawking. Your brother Ye is absolutely unreliable, so I will leave the outside business to you, and you can use your brother Ye as you like. Remember the worthless four cents. Six cents a piece with stuffing!"

In order to make a distinction, the egg yolk cake that Ye Mingqin and the others sold was slightly smaller than the egg yolk cake sent to Qingfenglou, and the cream inside was not as much as Qingfenglou.

Because no matter what, what Ye Mingqin and the others sell must not be as expensive as the ones sold in Qingfenglou. If they all sell the same, then everyone will come to Qingfenglou instead of going to Qingfenglou, and the loss outweighs the gain.

"Remember it!" Song Zixin was a little excited to get such an important task for the first time.

"Come on, this is the account book. If you sell a piece of egg yolk cake without fillings, draw a small vertical line. If you sell a cake with fillings, draw a small horizontal line. If the money is not correct, you can ask Brother Ye, we'll settle the score when we get back.

There are also these two plates, these are egg yolk cakes I cut into small pieces, one with fillings and one without fillings, you can let the customers try it first, and after the customers pay, you will tell them the location of our shop, so that In the future, we don't have to run out to sell them anymore, and let them come to the store to buy directly. "

Ye Mingqin put the plate containing the small cake pieces on the gauze in the bucket.
