After marrying sick Yangzi, I made my whole family rich

Chapter 235 Braised meat shop opens

For a few days in Fucheng, Xu Mengxiao solved several things one after another. Finally, she could take a break and help her mother's braised meat shop get started.

These days, without much intervention from her, Xu Lingyan and Wang were almost ready.

It's just that he didn't promote it everywhere like Xu Mengxiao did with Taoyuan Township. Instead, he took a small stove and set up a simple stall in the market.

When Xu Mengxiao looked over, she heard her eldest sister and mother shouting hard.

"We are selling braised pork, fresh braised pork, exclusive sauce, sauced pork ribs, braised pig's trotters, no charge if it's not delicious!"

"Sister, how much does one rib of yours cost? I think it's so tender. Can you try it?" A middle-aged man kept swallowing his saliva.

Mr. Wang smiled and was about to say yes, but Xu Lingyan shook her head decisively, "Uncle, I recognize you. You came to taste it two days ago, but you never bought it."

The man didn't expect that he was recognized even though he was dressed in such a virtuous manner, and he froze immediately!
"I don't taste it. You just give me a small amount every time. Isn't it obvious that you want people to buy it?"

"Hey, if you don't sell anything, are you here to have fun? If you don't buy it, don't eat it!" Someone couldn't stand it anymore and helped.

As soon as he couldn't taste the free one, the man started to cheat, "Please give me more and let me try it. I'll taste it, so I might buy it."

"Well, we give a lot every time. We brought a big pot in the first two days, but we didn't make any money for ourselves, so we just let everyone taste it. Now it's officially sold, and there's no free tasting." Mr. Wang also lost his temper.

They sell it like this just to promote their own store. Now that I look at it, there are actually a lot of familiar people lining up behind, wanting to eat for free.

When he saw her looking over, he immediately retracted his head.

Those who wanted to actually buy braised pork couldn’t help but say:

"People in our city are not so stingy. If you don't want to buy it, don't try it. If you have tasted it before, forget it. It is a compliment to the elder sister. If you don't buy it now, just let it go for those of us who want to buy it! "

"Who, who doesn't want to buy it?" Some people couldn't get off the stage, as if they were the ones who wanted to get free by stepping aside.

Xu Mengxiao stood aside and watched, seeing a few people leaving one after another who wanted to eat for free, and planned to buy the rest. There were almost twenty people.

It can be seen that the publicity effect of her mother and the others in the past two days has been very good.

But I have to be wrong. Her eldest sister is quite smart. She knows how to bring a small stove to heat the braised pork in the cold weather. As soon as she opens the pot lid——

"Wow, it smells so good. How is this braised pork made? It's so tempting!" The crowd exclaimed.

Xu Lingyan smiled gently, "This is a secret recipe that has been passed down from our ancestors for many generations. It took a long time to develop it to get this taste. Otherwise, we wouldn't dare to take it out to greet everyone casually!"

Xu Lingyan looks dignified and majestic, and she looks like a decent girl at first glance. Who would have thought that she also has the potential to be a profiteer.

Xu Mengxiao was amused and lined up behind her. It took a long time before it was her turn.

Mrs. Wang said without raising her head: "If you don't bring a bowl, our bowls cost two cents each, and we can give you an extra piece of meat."

"Mother~"

"Huh?" Wang was stunned.

"I have to pay for the braised pork." Xu Mengxiao came over and took over the job of serving the meat from her hand, "Go and have a rest aside!"

Then he followed Xu Lingyan, one person was responsible for serving the braised meat to the customers, and the other was responsible for collecting the money. They were very busy.

After two days of preheating, everyone brought bowls from home, so they didn’t have to spend an extra two cents to buy bowls.The beaten bowl of braised pork was soft but not rotten. Someone couldn't wait to take a bite with a spoon, and it almost melted in the mouth. It was so delicious and refreshing!

More people cover the freshly braised pork with a clean cloth or a bowl lid, and hurriedly take it home to enjoy with their families.

Just like this, a bowl of braised pork, half soup and half meat costs [-] yuan a bowl.

If there is more meat, it will cost thirty or forty cents. If it is all meat, it will cost fifty cents for a bowl. Such a bowl weighs half a catty, which is very cost-effective.

Although it is more expensive than buying meat yourself, the braised pork that someone else spends time and energy to stew is much cheaper than eating a dish in a restaurant.

For a time, many people on the streets smelled the aroma of braised pork floating in the air and rushed over to grab a bowl to try.

All compliments!

During this period, Mrs. Wang even ran home and brought a pot of newly stewed braised pork. Before noon, both pots were sold out, along with more than 20 new bowls.

When the family of three returned home, their hands were almost empty and their pockets were full of money.

Xu Mengxiao said that he would take them to Taoyuan Township for dinner, and Mrs. Wang also whispered: "It's a pocketful of money, so go back first. There will be some braised pork left in the pot when you get home, so you can eat it with rice. It's delicious!"

When they sold out all the dishes just now, some people even wanted to buy the stew at the bottom, saying it was delicious when dipped in wild vegetables and bran.

When Xu Lingyan arrived home, she opened a huge money bag and poured it on the table. The sound of clattering copper plates and broken silver was endless.

After some counting, there were more than three taels of silver!
Xu Mengxiao had no reaction, and even thought that he had earned such a small amount of money after all his hard work?It’s too shabby!

Wang's face flushed with joy, "You made more than three taels in one morning. After all costs, you still have twenty taels?"

"Yes, Mom, if we get more, we might be able to double it. I think there are still many people who haven't bought it, which is a pity, but I told everyone that we will sell it in the shop tomorrow!"

"This will be more convenient. Hurry up. After dinner, we will continue to wash the ingredients and start stewing in the afternoon."

The two of them were full of energy, which made Xu Mengxiao's reaction even colder. After a while, she finally came to her senses. Her business was getting bigger and bigger now, and she no longer looked down on these small amounts of money.

But for her mother and the others, they have just started a business and can earn two taels of silver in less than a day. One person can earn one tael on average. If they work harder, they can earn dozens of taels a month. This is how many people can earn. What can't be done?
This is something that Wang, who has always faced the loess and turned his back to the sky, would never dare to imagine!
For a long time, the eldest daughter did embroidery to make money, and the second daughter opened a restaurant to sell rouge and gouache, but she had no real sense of it, and it seemed that it had nothing to do with her, no matter how happy she was for them.

This time selling braised pork, she realized that she could earn money in her pocket through her own efforts, which was real and full of motivation!

Xu Mengxiao felt this simple joy and hurriedly praised her. Wang was so excited that she ate an extra bowl of rice. She was full of energy and high spirits.

After an afternoon and an evening of ping-pong-pong and jingle-ding, Wang and Xu Lingyan were so busy that they could hardly stand up straight, and they didn't feel tired at all.

Xu Mengxiao helped from time to time, but also had to do his own thing. Seeing that they were in good condition, he didn't try to persuade them again, but they couldn't always be so hard. That was something for another time.

Before dawn the next day, their whole yard was filled with the aroma of various braised meats, which made the neighbors around so hungry that they came to ask about it many times in the past two days.

I was surprised and curious to learn that this one-room shop that had never been able to sell well was going to open a braised meat shop. They all said they would come to support it.

What Xu Mengxiao and the others didn't expect was that as soon as they opened the door of the shop early in the morning, there would be a long and bustling queue outside.

And those at the front were actually some familiar faces!
