Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11511

Also, what is going on today?

It’s the first day of opening, and there are discounts and small gifts, but why are there so few people buying things in this roast duck shop?

Moreover, there was not a single duck to be seen on the counter in front.

Could it be that the roasted ducks flew away?

With such doubts, Yang Ruoqing came to the door of "Sanbao Roast Duck Restaurant" with other members of the Yang family.

Inside, Xu Yuanming was busy working at the oven, with no intention of paying attention to the store entrance behind him.

Yang Huamei stood beside Xu Yuanming, holding a large bamboo sieve in her hand with a clean white coarse cloth spread on the sieve. It seemed that she was helping Xu Yuanming.

She kept asking, "Is it cooked?"

At this moment, a group of people suddenly appeared at the door of the store. Yang Huamei thought it was another customer asking questions, so she subconsciously turned around and said with an apologetic smile on her face, "Are you here to buy roast duck? It's almost ready, and it will be out of the oven soon... Hey? Third brother, fourth brother? Is that you? Why are you here?"

Yang Huamei screamed in surprise, put down the empty sieve in her hand, ran to the store door, and threw herself into the crowd.

Upon looking, I saw that almost all the branches of Old Yang's family had come. Seven or eight people were standing at the door of the store, and it suddenly became lively again.

Yang Huazhong, Yang Huaming and others went straight into the store and went towards Xu Yuanming.

The area of ​​the store is not very large. Using the conversion unit that Yang Ruoqing is familiar with, it is less than 20 square meters.

There was a wooden counter in front of me, with a brand new large chopping board on it and a knife rack next to it with two knives of different models on it.

Then there were four or five bowls of rice, each filled with seasonings and the like.

A rag was neatly folded and placed next to the chopping board, on which traces of chopping the duck could be vaguely seen.

Behind the counter, there was a stove against the corner that was one person tall and as thick as three people could hold together. Next to the stove was a stool. Xu Yuanming was standing on the stool, holding a long iron hook in his hand, and was taking a roasted duck that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside out of the oven.

Yang Huazhong quickly picked up the large sieve next to him and handed it to Xu Yuanming, helping him take the roast ducks out of the oven one by one.

Next to it is a chimney that exhausts smoke, fueled by charcoal. There are all kinds of pickled ingredients in large basins, including raw duck.

It can be said that this shop, which is less than 20 square meters, combines processing, production and sales together.

The smell inside was quite strong, and there was a feeling of smoke and fire, so Yang Huamei chatted with the female relatives at the door of the store. Yang Huamei was very happy about the arrival of her family members and excitedly shared everything in the store with everyone.

Sun, Bao Suyun, Cao Bamei and the others all tried to find words of praise from every angle, which made Yang Huamei's face glow even more.

However, after taking a look, Liu raised her own doubts: "Mei'er, your roast duck is too unrefined, isn't it? It's roasted and sold right after it's been roasted? What customer would be willing to spend that much time standing here waiting?"

Unless eating this duck can cure all diseases, bring immediate promotion and wealth, and even allow you to pick up gold ingots every time you step over a hurdle... then it is worth standing here waiting for the results.

After hearing Liu's question, the others also noticed this and were puzzled.

Yang Ruoqing smiled and answered everyone's questions on behalf of Yang Huamei: "If I'm not mistaken, the first batch of roast ducks are probably sold out, and Auntie and the others were busy entertaining guests and forgot to restock them in time. Is that right, Auntie?"

Yang Huamei cast a look of shock and admiration at Yang Ruoqing, "Qing'er, it's like you were in my shop the whole time, seeing everything clearly!" Yang Ruoqing covered her mouth and laughed.

Isn't this obvious? I had run many small businesses before I opened my own shop, so I knew it clearly.

The first pot of gold was made by making tofu, which he and Luo Fengtang carried to the town's tile market to sell.

My luck is different every day. Sometimes I pick up 20 kilograms of tofu, but they are sold out in an instant and there is not enough to sell.

Sometimes, you may not be able to sell even a few pieces of ten kilograms of tofu.

Yang Huamei continued, "Today is the first day of business, and we have no idea how many people will buy. Lao Xu and I prepared forty plucked and marinated raw ducks overnight."

"Two hours before the store opened this morning, Lao Xu and I came to the store and put the first batch of 20 ducks into the oven."

"I thought it would take at least half a day to buy these 20 roast ducks, but they were sold out within an hour of opening!"

"Mei'er, after selling the first roast duck, you should have filled the vacant space immediately!" said Liu.

Yang Huamei nodded to Liu. "Fourth sister-in-law is right. It's because we just opened the shop and have no experience. At that time, there were too many people in the shop and we were busy entertaining customers. We forgot..."

"When all the ducks were sold out, I realized that they were out of stock. Many customers came to ask for roast duck, but none of them bought any. I lost a lot of business..."

Twenty ducks, twenty-five coins each, a total of five hundred coins in revenue!

When Liu heard what Yang Huamei said, she could only smack her lips and shake her head, "What a pity..."

Sun and Bao Suyun gently comforted Yang Huamei: "It's the first day, and it's normal to lack experience. You will definitely become more and more skilled in the future."

Sister-in-law Cao Bamei and Zhao Liuer exchanged glances, both of them with amazement in their eyes.

Who would have thought that this small shop could sell twenty roast ducks in just one hour?

How much can you sell at the end of the day or month?

Even if you can only make five or six cents from a roast duck, if you sell ten or twenty ducks a day, you can conservatively make one or two taels of silver.

Can you make a net profit of twenty or thirty taels of silver in a month?

That would be two or three hundred taels of silver that year?

Oh my god, isn't this getting rich? Even if Yang Yongjin manages the restaurant and participates in the restaurant's dividends, he can't make that much in a year. With all the money he makes, both openly and secretly, his annual income can be stabilized at 100 taels of silver, which is very considerable.

Yang Yongzhi worked in a Taoist temple. His job was not hard and he could go to work early and come back late every day. The temple also provided him with two or three meals.

The monthly allowance is only about three or five taels of silver.

It is no problem to support a family with three or five taels of silver. Some families in the village only have an annual income of about five taels of silver.

Moreover, the offerings, incense oil and other things brought by the pilgrims in the Taoist temple could be divided regularly. Yang Yongzhi received those things, which in turn supplemented the family expenses.

Originally, Cao Bamei and Zhao Liuer were very satisfied with their family conditions, but when they heard about Yang Huamei selling roast duck, the two sisters-in-law, especially Zhao Liuer, were moved!
