Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 815, Master He Braised Pork
"Look, how about selling braised pork, and making some cold dishes, or if that doesn't work, selling some noodles. The cost is relatively low, and you can make a lot of money." Jiang Yan thought for a moment and said.

Some people say why they don’t open restaurants or anything like that. You have to remember that the people have just started to reform and open up, and the people are not rich yet. There is no need for this. There will be the Eight Kings incident later, so let them just accumulate. There is always nothing wrong with being careful.

"Braised pork, cold dishes." Shitou whispered.

"Just before, when I was working in the steel rolling mill, the gift boxes made by Zhuzi and Liuzi were very well received by others after eating them. Isn't Zhuzhu skilled? Let him give you some pointers when the time comes. "

'Then the relationship is good, I will go find Zhuzhu to get a recipe later. Shitou said.

"By the way, if you have a Chinese store, try to buy it." Jiang Yan said again.

"Boss, you also know the situation of our family. It's okay to buy a house here, but it may not be enough to buy a store." Shitou said a little embarrassed.

Shitou's level is equivalent to that of a section chief. Although the Red Star Farm is short of supplies, the salary is a bit lacking. Also, they have to support their father-in-law and mother-in-law's family from time to time, so naturally they don't have that much on hand.

"Either I lend you money and you buy the shop, or I buy it and let you use it for free." Jiang Yan thought for a while and said.

"Well, how about you buy it first, boss, and I'll borrow it for use first. Then we can buy it when we have saved enough money. Just think of me as taking advantage of you, boss." Shitou said with a smile.

On the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, with the sound of crackling firecrackers, Master He Braised Pork Restaurant officially opened in Shitou on Qianmen Street. Since it was the first day of business, Shi Shi and He Yuzhu took a day off.

The smell of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, unless everyone knows which alley you are in.

After buying the store, Jiang Yan gave them some instructions and specially drew a drawing for the store. The drawing Jiang Yan drew was completely in an antique style. In this style, Shitou and his wife would look like each other. Quite satisfied, soon the pavement was started according to Jiang Yan's drawings.

Soon the two of them bought two shops on Qianmen Street. The man who sold the shop had just been rehabilitated and was planning to sell the shop to join his son. The son was abroad, so he wanted green coins, and the price was not high. It was expensive, but these two guys didn't have that thing in their hands, so they found Jiang Yan. Of course, Jiang Yan didn't have green coins, but during the liberation, Jiang Yan got a lot of gold and silver jewelry from the government. Although it was big Part of it was handed over, but I also kept some large yellow croakers and small yellow croakers, so the landlord accepted using small yellow croakers to pay, and soon the two shops were sold for the price of two small yellow croakers.

Regular meat is still a product of centralized purchasing and marketing. Although part of the pork produced by Hongxing Farm is provided to the meat factory, most of it is digested internally. Besides, Shitou is now the webmaster of the farm. It is not a small problem to get a few pigs into the water. , it’s not like they don’t give money.

The two families started to get busy at 5 o'clock in the morning that day. They also woke up early this morning and started busy with the Shitou couple. After arriving at the store, they first braised a pot of meat and pig heads.

This price is just within the range that everyone can accept. Although everyone has received a salary increase, they are not rich.

Braised pork is like this. Once the braised pork is braised, the aroma cannot be concealed at all. So the braised pork stall at Shitou's house was soon full of people. Everyone who had eaten said it was good. Shitou was also quite generous to the people in his stall. , from time to time, I would give some of my own braised pork to my friends or colleagues to taste. It can be said that everything is ready to open today.

Jiang Yan didn't care about what happened after that. After Shitou found He Yuzhu and explained the situation, He Yuzhu originally wanted to give him a secret recipe, but the shrewd Qin Huairu had a small idea after knowing that it was Jiang Yan who pointed it out. After a few people discussed it, it turned out to be a business partnership between two families, with the women from both families taking charge. From that day on, Shitou and He Yuzhu started to get busy.

"It's up to you. If you like it, come back and let me know."

Originally, they wanted to wait until the equipment was repaired before opening, but at Jiang Yan's suggestion, before opening, they would use a tricycle to sell braised pork for a week at the research institute and the steel rolling mill during get off work hours in the evening to build their reputation.

After discussion among several people, it was decided that the price would be set at 2 yuan per pound of meat, without any votes. After all, it takes one and a half pounds to braise one pound of meat. Pork offal costs 1 yuan per catty, and cold vegetables cost 3 cents per catty. White flour meat buns cost 2 cents each.

Wait until the official opening and take advantage of the Chinese New Year to build up your reputation.

While the two daughters-in-law were watching the fire, He Yuzhu and Shitou began to go out to buy vegetables. When they came back, they started washing and preparing vegetables. All the seasonings and other things had been taken care of yesterday. The meat will be braised by about 9 o'clock. Take it out and let it cool.

Open the door and let out the aroma of the braised pork while it's still hot. The whole street is filled with the aroma of braised pork.

Now is the holiday, and the children have nothing to do. Under the leadership of Jiang Zihan, He Xiao and others help in the store. Then at 10 o'clock, firecrackers went off and the business officially opened.

After a short discussion, the division of labor among them was clear. He Yuzhu and Shitou cut the meat, Yu Li prepared the cold dishes, and Qin Huairu made the meat buns. The remaining children weighed, collected money, kept accounts, and braised meat, all in an orderly manner while being busy.

Write it down clearly on the blackboard in front of the store: Pork costs 2 yuan per catty, free of charge, pig offal 1 yuan per catty, rougamo for 2 cents per catty, and cold dishes for 3 cents per catty.

The sound of firecrackers naturally attracts many people's attention. Recently, many shops have opened on Qianmen Street, some of which are time-honored. The newly opened shops are naturally attractive because these newly opened shops have certain discounts.

At this time, He Yuzhu walked out of the door and started shouting loudly.

"Attention, young and old, Master He's Braised Pork Restaurant has opened. They have braised pork, cold vegetables and steamed buns. Tickets are free!"

Three times in a row, it attracted people.

The factories are not on holiday yet, and the streets are filled with women, children, and students. When the smell of sulfur dissipates, the aroma of braised pork fills the streets again.

An aunt came over and looked at Jiang Yiyi who was charging money and asked: "Little girl, how do you sell this braised pork?"

A group of women followed behind, waiting for answers.

"Auntie, 2 pieces of braised pork, 1 piece of pork offal, 3 cents of cold vegetables, and 2 cents of roujiamo. After all, only one pound of braised pork comes out of a pound and a half of meat, so I don't want a vote."

"It's not cheap. Pork only costs more than 8 cents."

"Auntie, these are all secret sauces. There are more than ten kinds. If you taste them, I will refund your money."

"Okay, for those who are celebrating the New Year, let's try a pound of meat first."

"Okay! Don't worry, it's guaranteed to be delicious and make you want to come again after eating it!"

After Jiang Yan finished saying this, he said loudly: "Uncle He has a pound of pig head meat."

"Okay." He Yuzhu responded and cut the meat smoothly. Next to him, He Xiao prepared oil paper and put it on the plate under the scale. One pound, the scale beam was high.

Then he started packing and handed it to the aunt.

"Please walk slowly and come back after eating."

Then the women behind me followed and continued buying, along with their children.

"The roujiamo seller is over here."

The crowd was busy intermittently until two o'clock in the afternoon, and all four pots of meat were sold out. The two kerosene stoves in the store never stopped.

It was not until everything was sold out that they breathed a sigh of relief. They felt hungry as soon as they had some free time. He Yuzhu baked a few pancakes, made a few meat buns, and mixed some cold dishes. A few people were there. I had a simple meal in the store.
