Chapter 149

These days in Beijing, Lu Changqing often took the mother and daughter to play around during the breaks of making medicinal meals.

As the capital city, Beijing brings together the best things in the whole of China. The Fu Sheng Ji that Lu Changqing bought is a time-honored roasted seeds and nuts shop, the most famous of which is their melon seeds. There is a long queue, and if you go late, you may be empty.

Ever since Zhou Huilan praised the melon seeds once, Lu Changqing would buy them for her every time she went out.

The happiness of being missed is far more pleasing than the deliciousness of melon seeds. Zhou Huilan grabbed them and put them on the table, and gave Lu Changqing a sweet smile, "Thank you, Doctor Lu, for thinking about me."

Lu Changqing's face turned red at that moment.

He hugged Yaoyao awkwardly, "No, you're welcome."

Seeing his shy look, Zhou Huilan couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing.

Seeing that Lu Changqing became more and more shy, he quickly cleared his throat, chatted with Lu Changqing while eating melon seeds: "I used to think that this roasted seeds and nuts business was good, but seeing how Fu Sheng Ji managed the business like this, it is no less profitable than opening a restaurant. Bar."

Lu Changqing nodded, "Fushengji is a time-honored brand with a history of hundreds of years."

Zhou Huilan clapped her hands suddenly, "Seeing that the fried melon seeds are delicious and the business is good, how about I go back and set up a small stall for fried melon seeds?"

Before she came to Beijing, she had basically separated herself from Donghua Restaurant, and now she has nearly 30 in cash alone, so she doesn't have to worry about making a living, but she can't just be idle all the time.

When chatting with the big guys on Songbai Street before, she would always stir-fry melon seeds and soybeans. The neighbors said that they were better than those sold in small shops outside. When I was a master chef, I had to be sneaky when pouring some ancient well water.

The more Zhou Huilan thinks about it, the more reliable she is, "At first, I don't need to look for any appearance. I will speculate more at home and use the original electric tricycle. Slowly accumulate, maybe I can also build a production line to make batches like Fu Shengji. Production……"

The more Zhou Huilan talked, the more excited she became, as if she had seen everyone eating her melon seeds in the future when they were chatting.

Seeing Zhou Huilan like this, Lu Changqing also nodded very seriously, "It's okay, there are so many people on the street, there are more people eating melon seeds than going to restaurants, you can try it, if it doesn't work out, you still want to open a restaurant, I will support you."

Although I said this, it seems that I didn't want Lu Changqing's support.

But listening to him say that, I still feel that Meteorite is very strong.

So Zhou Huilan didn't ignore Lu Changqing's kindness, and smiled slightly, thanking Lu Changqing for his kindness.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. Zhou Huilan used to bake some roasted seeds and nuts by herself, but she did not cook much to satisfy her cravings.

But it's not that simple if you really want to start selling roasted seeds and nuts as a business.

First of all, the amount is a problem. When frying a catty of melon seeds and frying 10 catties of melon seeds, the degree of fatigue is not just multiplied by ten.

Zhou Huilan was thinking big at first, and she ordered 50 catties of fresh melon seeds from the proprietress who sells sunflower seeds in the vegetable market she often goes to. According to the experience of the proprietress, a catty of sunflower seeds still has nine taels after frying.

Zhou Huilan thought that at the beginning, she used the big iron pot on the original wood-fired stove at home, and one pot can fry seven or eight catties, and with the addition of coarse salt and aniseed ingredients, it is really not an easy job Province.

If it weren't for the water from the ancient well, Zhou Huilan wouldn't be able to fry the [-] catties of fresh melon seeds in one day.

Because it was made in large batches on the first day, Zhou Huilan fried all the melon seeds, and it was already afternoon.

Thinking that there was not much time left to pick up Yaoyao, she didn't go far, pushing the original tricycle, and stopped at the Drum Tower as an excuse, and used the yelling energy she had when she was selling soy milk.

It is not a good time to sell roasted seeds and nuts.

But Zhou Huilan's melon seeds are freshly fried, with plenty of ingredients and strong fragrance. Although there are not many people passing by, one of the two people will always come to ask, and the people who come to ask, the two of them And almost one person is willing to buy some back.

"I'm a fresh melon seed. It only sells for two yuan a catty. You can try it."

When someone stopped, Zhou Huilan enthusiastically let the other party taste it.

People in this day and age are still thin-skinned, and they are generally willing to taste it. They feel that the taste is good, and they will buy some back.

But in the middle of the afternoon, there were not many people on the street.

Zhou Huilan has been busy for more than an hour, and seeing that it is almost time to pick up the child, even half of them have not been sold. Thinking about seeing the business of a time-honored brand in Beijing, I feel that I may still be thinking simply.

But business has to be done slowly, Zhou Huilan is not in a hurry at this moment.

Seeing that it was almost time, she simply closed the stall, went back and sent the tricycle to Lu's house, packed it up, and planned to pick up Yaoyao.

Lu Changqing was also very shocked when he saw her return with a cart full of melon seeds, "Why is the business not good?"

Zhou Huilan spread her hands helplessly, "It's really not very good, and it's not the New Year's Eve. There are not many people eating, and there may be fewer people on the street in the middle of the afternoon."

"Are you going to pick up Yaoyao now?" Lu Changqing helped out with an idea, "Why don't we try to sell it at the entrance of the kindergarten?"

Zhou Huilan's eyes lit up when she heard this, but she quickly shook her head again, "Farewell, what if Yaoyao feels ashamed?"

Lu Changqing smiled, "Why do you feel ashamed? You go pick up the child, and I will push the tricycle to sell it, but if my business is good, Boss Zhou will have to pay for my labor!"

"You?" Zhou Huilan couldn't help laughing, and almost burst out laughing, "Doctor Lu, can you read the scale?"

"Of course! I usually weigh traditional Chinese medicine according to the scale." Lu Changqing was obviously unhappy, and Zhou Huilan looked down on him.

The two fought a few more words, and it seemed that the time was almost up. Lu Changqing really planned to sell melon seeds, but Zhou Huilan didn't stop her, so she told him the price.

He also told Lu Changqing that if he couldn't sell it, he would try it for passers-by, which would be regarded as an advertisement in disguise.

When we arrived at the entrance of the kindergarten, it was almost time to get off work. Apart from the parents queuing up, there were also many people on the street.

Zhou Huilan stood in the line and immediately forgot that Lu Changqing wanted to sell melon seeds.

Originally, Lu Changqing was a scholar, so if he was asked to sell melon seeds, he was overqualified, but whether this gentleman could let go of his pride was another matter.

It's just that Zhou Huilan picked up Yaoyao, and as soon as she crossed the road, she saw an old man carrying half a bag of melon seeds, nibbling and pulling his little grandson forward.
