Rebooting the Peak Years of 1985

Chapter 11 Daguang’s Father’s Jealousy

The child asked this because he must want to eat it. Chen Huajiang took out a few skewers of meat skewers that he had just grilled and handed them to Lin Jiayin.

"Let mom feed you, be careful of getting burned!"

Chen Huajiang's eyes were full of love.

Lin Jiayin took the mutton skewers from Chen Huajiang's hand and led Huanhuan to the table nearby.

When they saw Lin Jiayin coming, the men who were drinking all focused on her.

But when they found out that Lin Jiayin was Chen Huajiang's wife, their eyes showed a little disappointment.

"This man still has to be skilled. Do you think the boss can find such a beautiful wife?"

"I think so. I have to learn some skills, otherwise I won't even be able to marry a wife in the future."

"Forget it! You are so stupid, what can you learn? Why don't you ask the boss if he will accept an apprentice?"

Everyone chatted happily.

Huanhuan's mouth was full of oil. Lin Jiayin also tasted it. It tasted really good.

After eating, Lin Jiayin started to come over to help, because there were a lot of people, and Daguang couldn't help him alone.

In addition, Daguang is a bit stupid, and sometimes he can't even figure out the calculations.

Lin Jiayin was very smart. He found a notebook and wrote down everything ordered at each table, and also numbered it.

After a busy night, the mutton was sold out and they stopped accepting customers.

Everyone's feedback was very good, and Chen Huajiang was very satisfied.

After doing the math, I found that the total turnover for the mutton skewers alone was 60 to [-] yuan.

After deducting the cost, you can still earn more than 30 yuan.

For the 80s, this was pretty good.

But it's still a little far away from Chen Huajiang's goal.

After simply cleaning up everything here, the family of three went back.

"I think your business here is pretty good. How about I come here to help you every night? Daguang doesn't know how to settle accounts. I thought of a way. You mark the tables with numbers, and then order each table. You can also write down everything, so it will be easier to settle accounts."

Suggestions given by Lin Jiayin to Chen Huajiang.

Chen Huajiang nodded and said with a smile: "Actually, I have thought about asking you to help me before, and I even thought about asking you to resign."

"When I thought of another problem later, some people will definitely be jealous. Our snack bar will really have problems by then. We are both the same, so you should stay in the factory for the time being."

What Chen Huajiang said is not unreasonable. After all, when others see you making money, they feel bad.

For example, after Da Guang returned, his father asked: "Da Guang, how much money have you made these days?"

Daguang knew how to cook every day, but he didn't remember it so clearly.

"I'm not sure. Brother Jiang is the one who collects the money. I'm only responsible for making the braised pork well."

Da Guang said casually.

"If you ask me, you are stupid. I heard that people make thirty or fifty yuan a day. They only give you 1000 yuan if they make more than 50 yuan a month. You are willing to do it."

Daguang's father is an old fox, a man of evil spirits.

"He earns so much, but he has to pay for a lot of expenses. He pays for tables, chairs, benches, electricity bills, etc., as well as the money spent on renting a house."

Chen Huajiang told Daguang all these, and he was also worried that Daguang would feel uncomfortable.

"Except for these things, he is also making money. Have you ever thought about whether the harvest will be guaranteed even if there are droughts and floods if we do it?"

Da Guang's father saw that Chen Huajiang's business was doing well in the past two days, so he also thought about opening a snack bar by himself.

"The key question is, can you get a house? As for the house in front of the factory, are you sure they will use it for us?"

Daguang was quite clever at this time, and he asked one of the most critical questions.

That was the house that Chen Huajiang got after finding Liang Long. Da Guang's father didn't have such skills.

"Forget it, I won't tell you anymore, I just work stupidly for others."

Daguang's father also realized that he couldn't solve this problem, so he said this.

These days, business at Chen Huajiang is very good, whether at noon or at night.

And Lin Jiayin earns more and more, from a few dozen yuan at the beginning to hundreds now.

While doing this, Lin Jiayin was also constantly thinking about how to increase sales even more.

So, he thought of handing out some flyers. Although there were too many people and he couldn't handle it, he could still hire some people.

Of course, this matter had to be handled by Liang Long. There were very few places to find printing, so Chen Huajiang decided to ask Liang Long to find someone who could draw.

They buy some paper, draw it and give it to some customers.

In the evening, after Liang Long came to the barbecue stall, Chen Huajiang called him in.

In the past few days, he also taught Daguang how to grill mutton skewers, and his son Daguang also learned very quickly.

Therefore, when there are few people, he has some time.

"Do you know anyone who can draw? Our barbecue stall needs to be publicized, otherwise others won't know about it."

Chen Huajiang handed over a large front door.

"I know how to draw. I learned it when I was a child. Don't believe it. I will draw something for you now. You can see."

Diplodocus was quite confident.

Chen Huajiang took out a pen and paper in disbelief, and said with a smile: "Then you can draw our mutton skewers for me."

With a cigarette in his mouth, Diplodocus picked up the pen and drew quickly.

Don't tell me, the painting looks quite similar.

"I didn't realize you were capable, but we have to draw hundreds of pictures. Are you sure it's okay?"

Chen Huajiang is satisfied with the pattern drawn by Diplodocus, but he is worried that this boy will not do it well for you.

"Can't we just find a printing house and print it out directly? Why do we have to draw it one by one?"

"Of course I know how to find a printing shop, but it's too expensive, you know? It costs hundreds of dollars. Isn't this to save us money? You can take these and go back to paint at night."

To be honest, drawing hundreds of flyers is a bit laborious.

"I know the son of the director of the printing factory. I can find a way to handle this matter. You don't have to worry about it. Just wait for my good news."

After Diplodocus finished speaking, he patted his butt and left.

Chen Huajiang frowned, does this kid really have any good ideas?
He shook his head, and he didn't have to think too much. Since he has already agreed, he should be able to solve this problem.

At almost nine o'clock, Chen Huajiang and the others came here with a group of people who looked like gangsters.

"Boss, give us 50 mutton skewers, ten bottles of beer, and three plates of peanuts."

The leader was a man with a shaved head, about 27 years old.

"Okay, wait a moment, it will be ready soon."

Regardless of whether he is just hanging out for a while, since guests are here, he must entertain them.

Daguang pulled Chen Huajiang inside and whispered: "I know this bald man. He is a gangster from the street next to ours."
