Chapter 223 The Opening of the Snack Bar

In another room, Wen Guanshi touched a piece of mulberry paper excitedly, and asked Zhong Shuling, "Is this really made by you?"

The corner of Zhongshuling's mouth was filled with a smile: "The papermaking workshop is under his name. The matter was arranged by Steward Feng and Qingji Mojian. The papermaking recipe is probably Miss Chen's."

Wen Guanshi laughed dryly, and said reluctantly: "Then Miss Chen has such abilities?"

Zhong Shuling glanced at him: "The ruler is short, but the inch is long. My son is not proficient in farming and paper making."

Wen Guanshi didn't take it seriously: "It doesn't matter if you are not good at such things, but the young master's essays are first-class, so where can Miss Chen find the young master with such excellent writing skills?"

Zhong Shuling put down the teacup, and Wen Guanshi immediately bent his back: "This old servant is talking too much."

Zhong Shuling didn't speak.

Wen Guanshi bent down a little more: "Young master can live a little more comfortably with Ms. Chen."

"Is it all right?" Zhong Shuling looked at him.

Wen Guanshi's lips moved, but he still didn't speak in the end.

"She won't feel wronged by Zhu'er, but it will take some time for Zhu'er to make some achievements. Even if he is in the capital, he will have to compile books in the Imperial Academy for several years, and there will be times when things don't go his way."

Wen Guanshi sighed: "It's been so many days in a blink of an eye, is the master going to leave soon?"

Zhong Shuling nodded: "The officials came the day after tomorrow and took all the rice seeds back. Our mission is over."

"Wait for General Yan?"

"It's almost over there. The three armies are there." Zhong Shuling reached out for the teacup, and Wen Guanshi hurriedly picked it up: "This tea may be cold, I'll change it for the master."

After lunch, Chen Fan and the others went to the snack shop.

When the children saw a new type of machine, they immediately gathered around to study it.

"What's the use of shaking it?" Chen Zhongmei turned the handle, watching the two big iron pillars turn.

"This is a noodle machine." Chen Fan said.

"Noodle machine? Don't you need to roll the noodles by hand?" Chen Zhongliang was very happy.

Han came over with a basin of reconciled noodles, and demonstrated the operation process to the children, which aroused bursts of screams.

"This flour hangs from it like a cloth."

"It will be layered on top of each other."

"It's getting thinner."

Han Shi folded the wrappers, and Chen Yue picked up a kitchen knife, skillfully cut into wonton wrappers, picked up a stack of wrappers and shook them, and the wonton wrappers opened like pages of a book.The children yelled again.

"Are we going to sell wontons?" Xiao Wang Yun asked with blinking eyes.

Chen Fan smiled: "That's right, let's sell wontons first."

People in Yuanfeng County eat more dumplings and noodles, but few people eat wontons, and wontons are the most commonly eaten noodles in her hometown.

Chen Fan brought Qingtang over this time and asked her to work in the snack bar.Wang Dazhu took on the laborious work of making noodles, Han Shi and Qingtang showed off their cooking skills, and Wang Yun helped.In terms of finances, the Han family is responsible for keeping the accounts, and Qingtang is responsible for managing the money.The Liu family also sent an old lady Zhang over to take care of washing dishes and collecting tables, and lived in the same room with Qingtang.

Chen Fan looked at Han Shi: "I'm going to be the shopkeeper, are you confident?"

Han blushed, straightened her back and said, "Thank you, miss, for giving our family a chance. After selling the sweet potatoes for so many days, we have developed our courage and wit. Please don't worry, miss, we will ensure cleanliness, good taste and good taste." Delicious, courteous service, clear money."

Chen Fan laughed, his words were indeed well practiced, and he was able to speak in a consistent manner.

Chen Fan asked about the purchase and ingredients again, looked at the plaques delivered, inspected the details of the store, and took everyone to Liujiabuzhuang.

Yingniang greeted her enthusiastically: "Miss Chen is here, the clothes are all ready, you can try them on, and I can change them for you immediately if they don't fit you."

The three members of the Han family glanced at each other: "Do you make clothes?"

Yingniang smiled and said, "Miss Chen said that your clothes are all uniform, and the bookstore staff will also have uniform clothes."

Before Han could react, Qingtang grinned first.

Yingniang raised her hand and made a gesture of invitation: "You follow me to the inner room."

When everyone went to the inner room, they saw several clothes of the same style hanging on the shelves there, and they wondered if they belonged to them.

Sure enough, Yingniang handed a piece of clothing to Han Shi, and another to Qingtang, and even Wang Yun also had a small size of the same style.Mrs. Zhang's clothes are of a different color from theirs.

When everyone put on their clothes, Wang Yun immediately smiled and said, "It's so beautiful! There are flowers embroidered on the chest." The word "Chen" was uniformly embroidered on the chest of the clothes, and the pattern of auspicious clouds was also embroidered.

Wang Dazhu stood there with a smirk on his face, and Han looked at him a little shyly, as if he had just met him.

There was nothing obviously wrong with the clothes, and there was no need to change them. Everyone packed up and went back to the store.

On September 24, the snack bar opened.Chen Fan and the children tied up two flower baskets and placed them at the door, and the people passing by looked around curiously.

At about 58:[-], the firecrackers exploded lively, and the plaque tied with red silk and covered with red cloth was lifted up and hung up.Li Guanshi said some auspicious words, and Chen Fan and Zhang Ci lifted the red cloth together, revealing the three big characters of "mankouxian", which were written by Zhongshuling.

The common people praised "good calligraphy! Good calligraphy!", and looked into the store, but they didn't enter the store.

Five people stood in front of the store in uniform, attracting a wave of attention.

"The guys in a big restaurant wear the same clothes, so they have to wear the same clothes when they open a small shop?" Some passers-by shouted, and the people around the audience began to discuss.

Dazhu said in a loud voice, "Fathers and elders, my store opens today, and the price is [-]% off. Thank you folks for coming."

Someone responded: "Have you sold out all your sweet potatoes? Why are you open for business?"

Wang Dazhu cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Thanks to the kindness of the villagers, there are not many sweet potatoes left. They will be sold at dusk every day, and wontons will be sold at other times."

"Aren't people in the south of the Yangtze River eating wontons? Can the ones you cook be delicious?"

The voices of those few people were also quite loud, like a babysitter, and they agreed with Wang Dazhu, which made the atmosphere on the street much more lively.

Wang Dazhu said with a smile: "Guest officer, come and taste a bowl and you will know."

Some people entered the store one after another, and shouted again when they saw the glass window.

"Glass! Such a big piece of glass!"

"Burning money! Such a large piece of glass is enough for me to build a house!"

Everyone put their hands on the glass at the same time, greedily touching it, their eyes were brighter than the glass.

Finally, someone dragged himself out from the glass and said to Wang Dazhu, "Here's a bowl of wontons!"
