The daughter of the splendid good fortune is respected

Chapter 425 Returning to the City for Business (4)
On the day of departure, everyone got up early.Xiao Maoyang also stayed at the mansion, intending to personally send Han and the others out of the city gate.Xiao Mingyu wanted to watch Brother Cheng, so he had to send it to the door.

Han put her arms around Xiao Mingyu, "Take care of your home, if there is any difficulty, you can make up your own mind. Don't go out. Do you understand?"

Xiao Mingyu nodded, "Mother, don't worry, I will take good care of myself and brother Cheng. You don't have to worry about dad. With Han Dong around, dad's whereabouts cannot escape my daughter's eyes."

"You girl, let me tell you what you are. You are not allowed to speak so impertinently in the future. All right, you go back first, and mother will leave."

When Mrs. Han got into the carriage, Xiao Mingxuan pulled Xiao Mingyu into the corner and talked, "Mingyu, I leave the family affairs to you. My sister accepts your kindness, and I will repay you even more in the future."

"Fourth Sister, instead of talking about repayment, you might as well talk about getting married early and giving birth to a little nephew for me to hug." Xiao Mingyu joked.

Xiao Mingxuan was annoyed, "You damn girl, you will make fun of me. It's okay, my mother and I will leave first, don't worry about us, the important thing is to take care of yourself and your family."

Xiao Mingyu smiled and nodded, "Fourth Sister, you have to take a good look at Brother-in-law Chai. There must be many girls in Yanzhou who are thinking about such a talented man. You should get rid of the dangerous people first."

"Nonsense." Han stuck out his head, "Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and get in the carriage."

The two sisters were very embarrassed and stuck out their tongues.Xiao Mingxuan got into the carriage and waved to Xiao Mingyu.Xiao Mingyu watched the carriage go out the second door.Xiao Maoyang sent them all the way on horseback, intending to send them to Wuliting outside the city gate.

When the people left, Xiao Mingyu went down one after another and closed the door tightly. Unless necessary, no one would open the door.

When Xiao Mingyu returned to the house, brother Cheng was sleeping after drinking milk.Xiao Mingyu then took a book and sat by the bed to read.Not long after watching, the girl Manchun came in and reported, "Miss, Feng Changgen and Shen Min are here, do you want to see them now?"

Xiao Mingyu put down the book in his hand, "Of course I want to see you. You take them to the flower hall, and I'll go there right away."

Xiao Mingyu told Nanny Chang to take good care of Brother Cheng, and Nanny Chang smiled and said, "Don't worry, girl, Brother Cheng is the lifeblood of this old slave, and this old slave is more precious than his precious eyeballs, Brother Cheng, I will definitely not let Brother Cheng Something happened."

Xiao Mingyu felt relieved.Normally, Nanny Chang should go to Yanzhou with Mrs. Han, but Mrs. Han was worried about Brother Cheng, thinking that Mrs. Chang was the most stable, so she asked Mrs. Chang to stay and help Xiao Mingyu take care of Brother Cheng.With Nanny Chang around, the burden on Xiao Mingyu's heart was not so heavy, and it was much easier.

After tidying up, Xiao Mingyu came to the flower hall.

Both Shen Minyou and Feng Changgen got up to salute, Xiao Mingyu waved his hand to signal that they don't need to be too polite, "Let's all sit down and talk."

Xiao Mingyu pondered for a while, and said: "You all know that the old man gave me a shop, which is by the pier. I plan to use this shop to open a restaurant."

The two looked at each other, and Shen Minyou said: "Girl, there are coolies in that place, I'm afraid it's impossible to open a restaurant there."

Xiao Mingyu smiled and said, "Your worry is very reasonable, but all I do is spend money from the coolies, as well as those ordinary people who passed by."

The two frowned, not understanding Xiao Mingyu's thoughts.Feng Changgen asked: "I don't know what the girl wants to look like."

Xiao Mingyu nodded approvingly, "Before I asked you to inquire about the pier, you all know something about the pier. The restaurant I am going to make now, a meal plus vegetables, only sells for three yuan, you said those people will come to eat ?"

"Three pennies? Girl, this price can't even make back the capital." The two said in unison.

Xiao Mingyu smiled and shook his head, "Listen to me. What we want to sell is a set meal. The rice is a big pot of rice, and a big pot is cooked at a time, which is enough for hundreds of people. As for the dishes, it is also a big pot of dishes. When it is almost noon, The kitchen prepares all the dishes and puts them in the pot to keep warm. In addition, prepare a large bucket of soup. Three pennies are enough to fill, one vegetable and one soup with oily water. Five pennies are full, one meat and one vegetarian plus a bowl of soup In short, adding one more vegetarian dish costs one penny. Adding one more meat dish costs two pennies. The starting price of a set meal is three pennies, which means that three pennies is the minimum consumption. As for rice, we sell rice, and a set meal is a bowl of rice .What is added is a penny for a bowl. What do you think?"

This is actually the old-fashioned version of fast food.That place is full of coolies, and no one wants to do business with these people.So these people's lunch and dinner have become a problem.Most of them are brought from home, eating cold hard pancakes and drinking cold water every day.Don't be afraid of being young and strong. When you get older, all kinds of problems will come.For three pennies, you can eat hot dishes and rice, and you can also drink a bowl of steaming soup. With the income of those people, Xiao Mingyu believes that those people can afford it.It is certain that many people will choose meals with three Wen coins instead of eating cold and hard biscuits.

"This? Girl, the profit is too thin." Shen Min said cautiously.

Xiao Mingyu said indifferently: "Small profits but quick turnover. There are tens of thousands of people coming and going to that place every day. Even if there are only a few hundred or a few thousand people eating there every day, do the math, how much will you sell for this meal?"

The two silently calculated, the price is low, even if they sell a lot, there is not much money in a day.

Xiao Mingyu continued: "Tell me, when the people on the pier accept this way of dining, how many people will choose our restaurant? 1000 people, 2000 people, 5000 people, or even 1 people? How many people are there every day? How many people choose to eat five pennies, and how many people choose to eat seven pennies? Wealth is always accumulated. Don’t look down on small businesses that cost a few pennies, I have great confidence in this business.”

"What does the girl want us to do?" Feng Changgen asked.

Xiao Mingyu laughed, "Here are some drawings I drew. This is for the store. You can decorate according to my drawings and build the counter right at the door. That's right. Put a cauldron with vegetables at the door for everyone to see. , What exactly does our restaurant sell. And this, you find someone to customize this wooden bowl. Yes, all wooden bowls are used. If they are not uniform, let those people bring their own bowls, some are big and some are small. , it is inevitable that there will be disputes. Sometimes they say that the food we give is not enough, and then they say that the food we give is too small. To avoid disputes, they are all unified into such wooden bowls. There are also spoons for cooking and cooking. The size, one serving is one spoon, and the excess is gone. Tell those who work hard, we put oil to fry even the vegetarian dishes, not boiled in plain water. There are also our meat dishes, but you can really see the meat Yes. As for whether a meat dish is one piece of meat or ten pieces of meat, you can calculate the cost before deciding. There is also soup, just boil the soup with clear water. And the rules of the business, such as bamboo joints, small pieces, Find someone to make a few thousand pieces, and write numbers like three, four, and five on them."
