Chapter 186

It will take more than a month to decorate the store, after all, it is all handmade, so there is no rush.

In daily study and life, Yunjing also often took time to pay attention to the decoration of the store, and made a lot of suggestions. The carpenter in charge of the decoration did not complain about Yunjing's blind instructions.

Youdao is the number one scholar, seeing the scenes of those woodworkers working, Yun Jing couldn't help but admire them.

They have never read a book, and they may not know more than a hundred words in total, but their carpentry skills are amazing, such as making stools, without marking or measuring, just do it directly. The textures are stitched together, and at a glance, it seems to be carved out of a whole piece of wood.

Another example is the engraver, who doesn’t even need to make a sketch, but just picks up the tools and goes on the job. A few times here and there, the sawdust is flying around, and the finished product is extremely exquisite.

In short, their carpentry is quite good, and this is not a famous craftsman.

Well, people rely on this craftsmanship to make a living. If they don't have any skills, how can they support their families?

The decoration of the store is proceeding in an orderly manner. There is one thing that makes Zhang Changgui quite entangled, that is, the chef is not easy to recruit, so he should spend a lot of money to hire it. In a place like Niujiao Town, they still open a small shop, so it is completely unnecessary, but Please be ordinary, but anyone with a bit of cooking skills has a place to work, and the people here are very honest, so they can't invite them at all.

They open a shop to do business, so they can't just find a chef to make do with it, can they?It would be strange to have business like that, the taste is not good, and if you meet some bad-tempered ones, maybe they will tear down their stores for you.

For more than half a month, Zhang Changgui was unable to recruit a chef, so he had no choice but to find Yunjing and talk about his troubles.

Regarding this, Yun Jing said: "Uncle Changgui, I decided not to open a restaurant, so you don't have to be so embarrassing about the chef."

"What? Don't open a restaurant anymore? What are you going to do?" Zhang Changgui was dumbfounded, and thought that Xiaojing was becoming more and more unreliable. After investing so much money, he changed his mind as soon as he wanted to. Thinking about it, Zhang Changgui felt a little distressed. money invested.

Signaling him to be calm, Yun Jing smiled and said, "Uncle Changgui, I want to open a cake shop. I figured out cakes, and no one else can make them except me, so there is no need to hire people elsewhere." "

"What's a cake?" Zhang Changgui asked blankly, never having heard of it.

After thinking about it, Yun Jing said, "Osmanthus Cake Changgui, do you know it? The cake is about the same as that thing, the main ingredients are egg flour and sugar... Well, you will know when the time comes"

Zhang Changgui felt that Yunjing was getting more and more unreliable, so he struggled and said, "Eggs can be made into cakes? Well, this is fine. I mean, can cakes really make money?"

At present, almost 200 taels of silver have been invested. Although Zhang Changgui doesn't know where Yunjing got the money from, he will feel anxious for Yunjing if the resulting business doesn't make money.

He felt that with so much money, buying ten cows and plowing land for others, even selling farmyard manure, might be more reliable than Yunjing's never-heard cake.

"Don't worry, Uncle Changgui, it's not a big problem," Yun Jing said with a smile.

Once things like cakes are made and the fragrance is released, those greedy children and women can't believe they can't help but not want to taste them.

As long as you have eaten, hey, this is the only one, and if you want to eat again, you can only buy it here.

Having said that, the production of this thing is not complicated. If someone wants to imitate it, it is not difficult to think about it. The monopoly method of exclusive operation may not last long.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the brand is good and the quality is well controlled, even if other cake shops appear on the market in the future, they can still make money.

Yunjing doesn't have this kind of thinking of eating alone forever, anyway, as long as he can earn money, the rest doesn't matter.

Zhang Changgui had no choice but to trust Yunjing, and continued to struggle, "But Xiaojing, you said that only you can make that cake, so you can't make it then?"

Ever since he changed his mind, Yunjing has been thinking about it, so he just said it at this time, and said: "Uncle Changgui, how about this, I will teach my aunt how to make cakes and let her do it, and then she will take charge of it. Chef, I’m not an outsider anyway, and my family can feel at ease when doing things.”

Teaching Zhang Changgui's daughter-in-law to make cakes, Yun Jing was holding the idea that the fat and water would not flow into outsiders' fields, and that would be a good business. It could be passed down to the family, and it could be regarded as repaying Zhang Changgui's kindness.

These are small things, and there is no need to count them so clearly.

"Is she okay?" Zhang Changgui wondered, not because he didn't want his daughter-in-law to come out to do things, but because he was afraid that his daughter-in-law's failure would delay Yunjing's business.

Yun Jing smiled and said: "Don't worry, there's no problem, and the cake making is very simple. During this period of time, I'll prepare some tools. When I'm ready, I will arrange a time. I will teach my aunt how to make the cake. That's the decision." "

"Okay, if it doesn't work when the time comes, I'll hire someone outside," Zhang Changgui said after thinking for a while.

That's how the matter is settled.

After all, the cake is a novelty, some of the tools needed can not be bought off-the-shelf, Yunjing can only explain the requirements clearly, let Zhang Changgui spend money to hire someone to customize.

After the tools were finished, Yunjing took the time to teach his wife how to make cakes, which was not difficult to learn. When the first pot of cakes was baked, the aroma made Zhang Changgui's family almost salivate.

In fact, they were not satisfied with the first pot of cake Yunjing, but they had never seen it, let alone eaten it.

After eating the sweet cake, Zhang Changgui's eyes were straightened, and he said with sparkle: "Xiaojing, this business is doing well, it's so delicious, I'm appointed to make money!"

After eating the cake, he didn't worry about it anymore. If such a delicious thing doesn't make money, it's simply unreasonable.

Delicious cakes are one thing, especially Yunjing's method of extracting ordinary brown sugar into white sugar and rock sugar, which made Zhang Changgui's family exclaimed amazingly, and then swore that this method would never be passed on to the outside world, and would not be passed on to his sons or daughters.

Yun Jing reluctantly said that it was not that serious, but it should be kept secret so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

Sugar is a luxury item. Even if it is just white sugar and rock sugar extracted from brown sugar, the white sugar is much more expensive than brown sugar. It is also a huge profit, and it is necessary to keep it secret.

To teach them this method, Yunjing also has his own concerns. After the cake shop can't become an exclusive operation, it can also sell candy in the shop.

In fact, Yunjing doesn't care too much about how much money he can earn from doing business. It's because he himself has a taste of nostalgia for his past life. Anyway, he just wants to be happy...

When Zhang Changgui's wife learned how to make cakes, Yunjing also taught him some new tricks, such as frothing milk to make cream, and decorating the cakes in a fancy way, so that people can't afford it at first glance. When the shop opens, It also undertakes custom-made, anyway, how come it is high-end, I think there are many rich people who have money and nowhere to spend it, and they are willing to throw a lot of money for the face of the card.

During these processes, Yunjing and Zhang Changgui discussed the pricing of the cakes. Ordinary cakes cost one tael a catty, while the custom-made large cakes cost at least ten taels. Depending on the design and size, there are also 66 taels, 88 taels, and 99 taels. Such pricing!
Zhang Changgui's eyes almost popped out when he heard the price set by Yunjing.

A tael of silver a catty for ordinary cakes?Is it too much?
He knows the cost. Eggs, flour, sugar, etc., the total cost of a pound of cake is less than ten copper coins. After all, they are all made by themselves.

There is also the big cake at the back, one ten taels of silver made his heart beat faster and he almost had a myocardial infarction, let alone 66 taels of 88 taels of 99 taels, no fool would buy it!
In this regard, Yunjing can only say, try it after opening the store, and lower the price if no one buys it. People are alive, and the pricing can be flexible according to the market.

That's what he said, but he thought in his heart that there are still many 'fools' in the world, and sometimes there are not enough bad guys.

In fact, Yunjing feels that his pricing is already a conscience, it seems expensive, but for some really rich people, it is nothing at all, what they want is face, what others can't afford, they can afford it, What is money to them?Mostly, buy, buy, buy, the more expensive the merrier...

Yunjing never thought that such a customized big cake could be afforded by ordinary people.

His conscience doesn't hurt at all for earning rich people's money...

After teaching cake making for a while, Yunjing got tired of eating it and didn't want to eat it at all. After teaching dozens of big cake tricks, Yunjing finally stopped.

After being busy with these things, time passed unconsciously. The store has been renovated and is ready to open at any time. Moreover, this semester of the school is also at the end of the semester.

A few days before the holiday, Yunjing's cake shop opened in Niujiao Town. It opened in a very low-key way without any fanfare. Even before that, the neighbors around did not know what this place was for.

The so-called smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. When the cakes in the cake shop are made, the unique fragrance permeates, and people who smell the smell spontaneously flock to it. Although there are not many people who can afford it and are willing to spend money, the business is really good. .

Yun Jing, who was observing secretly, felt calm.

It opened on the first day, and the business is booming. After all, it is a new thing, and the fragrance is so strong and unique that people can't help but drool. Anyone who has money and can afford it will not want to try it. It will melt in your mouth when you eat it. The cake is so delicious, it's so delicious.

In half a day, the prepared raw materials were sold out, and many people who came after hearing the news couldn't buy them. Anyway, Zhang Changgui's family and the two mistresses they invited were exhausted on this day.

But the harvest is joyful. After the final settlement, I sold a full 280 taels of silver on this day. After excluding the cost and labor, I made a net profit of more than 250 taels of silver!
This made Zhang Changgui beat his chest and stamp his feet. If he had known that the business was so good, he would have prepared more materials.

On this day, most of the investment was made back. Zhang Changgui was terrified at the speed of making money. At the same time, he also wondered, is there so many rich people in Niujiao Town, where he has lived for decades?Usually, he doesn't show his mountains or dew his water, so he is willing to throw a lot of coins just for a bite of food?

Business is good, but Zhang Changgui still obeyed Yunjing's orders, and prepared the same materials as the first day every day. In Yunjing's words, on the first day, people made fresh plans, and business might not be so good in the future.

In terms of safety, Yunjing also has considerations. Through Wang Bolin, he talked to Wang Butou and asked him to take care of it. Then, in the store, Yunjing asked Liu Dazhuang to watch every day to avoid dirty things.

There is no ambiguity about the cloud scene that should be managed. These are all things that should be spent. People are so sophisticated, and money can never be earned.

On the third day after the cake shop opened, Yunjing went to the school and saw Zhou Jintai gnawing on the cake, exclaiming that it was delicious, while complaining that it was too expensive.

Well, there are delicious things, and this guy is always indispensable.

The end of the term soon came to an end. Although Yunjing didn't care about the ranking in the final assessment, he still did the test questions seriously. There was no need to hide his clumsiness. After all, what he learned was real.

In the second semester when he was promoted to knowledge class, he got No.1.

In just one year, he kept up with other people's progress, and even surpassed other people in the class, which made the students in the class look at him like a monster.

Hey, the world of Xueba is so dull and boring...

It's the holiday, and the next one is summer vacation. The Yunjing brothers finished their one-semester study career and left the town to go home.

When going back, Yunjing brought a lot of cakes, the family has never tasted such a delicacy.

This coming summer vacation, Yunjing has a very important thing to do.

That is to take her mother back to her hometown, the hometown she has been away from for more than ten years...
