Chapter 473 You also think there is a problem?
Mrs. Zhao moved the wooden basin down, frowned suddenly, and said casually, "This weight is not enough."

Chen Jiaoniang said, "But what's wrong?"

Mrs. Zhao said, "There are more than ten kinds of lo mei in our shop. Vegetarian dishes cost fifteen catties a day, and meat dishes still cost ten catties. But I remember ordering them once today. Why are there only these left?"

The shelves in the store are not big enough, and this kind of cooked food will not be fresh if it is placed outside for too long, so it is placed in the kitchen, covered with a clean cloth, and the goods outside are not enough to make up for it.

Mrs. Zhao thought for a while, "I guess I remembered it wrong, so let's take it out first, the shelves outside are all empty."

Although Chen Jiaoniang was still puzzled in her heart, she knew that this was not the time to think about it, so she followed Mrs. Zhao out with a big basin.

"A Lin, how many times have the lo mei been delivered today?" Mrs. Zhao hastily asked the shop assistants after finishing the goods.

Alin thought for a while and said, "Duck's neck and duck wings were screwed twice, goose intestines were screwed three times, and the others seemed to be screwed only once."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao and Chen Jiaoniang looked at each other, feeling that something was wrong.

They have seen the goods saved in the kitchen just now. A wooden basin weighs about [-] catties. The last time the goods were usually only five catties, but several basins in the kitchen have been empty just now, which should not be done at all.

Seeing this, Ah Lin asked puzzledly, "Miss Boss, what happened?"

Chen Jiaoniang said, "Where's Aunt Li who is in charge of making the lo-mei?"

A Lin replied, "Aunt Li makes up the amount for the day every morning and then leaves. If the sales are not enough in the afternoon, I will send someone to call her and make some when I come back. I am not usually in the store."

"When did she leave today?"

Ah Lin didn't have much impression, so he asked another guy, "Wang Gui, when did Aunt Li leave today?"

Wang Gui thought for a while, "It seems that when the door just opened, there were quite a lot of people. The second owner's house hasn't come yet, and the store is busy. I remember I asked Aunt Li to help me for a while before leaving, but she said she would Went home to wash clothes, and left in a hurry."

Aunt Li was specially invited by Chen Jiaoniang to make lo-mei. If she wants to expand Xunxiang, she must start to divide powers and responsibilities from now on. Everyone is responsible for their own things, so besides making lo-mei, she really No need to be in the store.

"Keep busy." Zhao said, "It's nothing."

Now with Bilan's help, Mrs. Zhao was able to walk away for a while, and went to the backyard with Chen Jiaoniang.

"Jiaoniang, do you also think there is a problem?"

Chen Jiaoniang nodded, "Obviously there is less lo mei, but now I can't be sure whether Aunt Li got it or the shop assistant."

Mrs. Zhao frowned, "That shouldn't be the case. Today's goods are about [-] catties less. There are so many things, why take them away? Why don't you take such food with you?"

Mrs. Zhao really couldn't figure it out. If Xunxianglai's treatment was good enough, each employee in the shop would give two taels of silver per month, and Aunt Li, who made braised meat, would give one tael to five taels of silver because she didn't need to be in the shop all the time.

Most of the shops in Xiu'an Town pay their clerks only four or five dollars a month. With such a high salary, what else do you want to do if you don't work hard?

And because the ingredients from Xunxiang must be fresh, the few catties of braised meat Zhao's leftover from the daily sales are shared by several of their buddies to take home to eat, shouldn't they be so greedy?
