Blessed woman in the farm gate

Chapter 111 Needs Improvement
According to my father, this young official's surname is He, and his name is Shuze.

When Li Fuyue first heard the name.

The first thing that came to mind was He Shuhuan, a famous scumbag in his previous life.

Looking at it now, the gentle looks of the two are actually very consistent.

Gee tut.

He Shuze also noticed a curious gaze sizing him up, followed his gaze, and found that it was the child following him, so he returned a gentle smile.

Then Li Fuyue felt a little guilty about her thoughts.

After He Shuze came forward to negotiate, things became easier. When handling the paperwork, the people in the yamen were very polite and quick on He Shuze's side.

On the first day of Good Food’s opening, the Li family all came to the town. The store they bought came with a small attic, which is not too big, and it can accommodate two people to rest here at night, but there are too many people in the Li family. Naturally, it is inconvenient to rest here at night, so except for Li Shu and Yu Shi and Li Congxin who can only mess around, the three sisters and Lu Yuan all returned to Liufeng Village, planning to go back the next day.

The rest of the preparations are almost the same. The Li family used to just want to celebrate and be happy.

On the third day of March, Hao Diet officially opened.Li Shu also specially bought a batch of firecrackers. Li Fuyue and others came early, and the sky was just getting dark when they arrived. Li Shu didn't let the firecrackers out for fear of disturbing the peace of the surrounding people.

Although Li Yayue is young, she has good cooking skills, so she helps the experienced Yu Shi in the kitchen, and occasionally cooks a few fish by herself.People around have heard that the liquor store on this side of the old street will be replaced by a small restaurant. Just as the Li family had envisioned when they chose the site, those old customers are willing to come here to try the taste, and this trial is I was attracted by the sincerity of good food - enough food, delicious taste, good service.

Moreover, the newly tidied up shop is clean and the floor is brightened. It is a kind of enjoyment for people to sit in and eat and drink. In addition, when Li Shu went through the handover procedures with the old couple, he also kept an eye on the drinks. Fangzi is the exclusive brewing method bought by the old couple before. Although the taste is not exactly the same, it is enough to satisfy these regular customers.

On the first day of opening, business was quite good.

Mrs. Yu and Li Yayue were busily busy in the kitchen. Old man Li and Li Miaoyue helped choose vegetables and scoop water, while Lu Yuan was nimble with his hands and feet and good at arithmetic, so he collected the bills and greeted the guests, acting as the waiter and accountant. , as for Li Fuyue, she carefully hugged the limp Li Congxin, sitting at the entrance of the good food shop as a mascot, one obedient and one cute, sitting at the door attracted the attention of passers-by.

While teasing Li Congxin with a smile on his face, Li Fuyue was also looking at the customers who came and went, thinking about what could be improved.

Li Congxin is now three months old, and he is still a baby, but it is quite different from the honest appearance in Yushi's womb. He is just a monkey. He loves to laugh, baring his teeth and waving his claws. He is still chattering, and he doesn't know what baby language he is talking about.

In the evening, the family affairs finally came to an end. Li Shu and his family hired a bullock cart and returned to Liufeng Village.

After all, there were outsiders on the bullock cart, and the family didn't say anything about the restaurant. After they got home, the group of people really relaxed. Li Shusong stretched his stiff shoulders, smiling all over his face: " Today is really tiring, but the people who come to our store to eat and drink are more than my previous budget, which is also a surprise, Xiao Yuan, how much did we earn this day?"

Lu Yuan's head turned quickly, and as soon as he got home, he took out the account book he had written down: "After this day, we entertained 56 customers. If we don't count the cost, we have earned a total of 860 yuan. The materials we used are all Okay, the cost is a bit more, apart from the cost, there is still a net income of 530 cash."

This income also far exceeded Lu Yuan's imagination. He thought it would be good to earn two hundred Wen a day.

However, Li Shu's reaction surprised Lu Yuan a little. He saw that Li Shu nodded after hearing the words, not much joy on his face, and even some melancholy.

Lu Yuan was shocked. The net income of more than 500 Wen a day is much more than the income of ordinary small restaurants. Why does Uncle Li look a little sad?

Understanding Lu Yuan's doubts, Li Shu sighed and explained, "Xiao Yuan, have you eaten our red pliers too?"

Lu Yuan nodded. Although the red pliers hadn't been used for a few months, he had tasted it when he first came to Li's house. It was very tender and chewy, and the taste was also good. I don't believe that such a good taste is actually the red pliers that can be seen everywhere in summer.

Seeing him nodding, Li Shu said again: "Actually, when we used a small cart to sell pies made of red pliers meat, we earned four to five hundred cash a day, and the raw materials of red pliers were equivalent to no cost, so the money The net income is huge, but now that the store is sold, the income is the same as that of pushing a small cart, and it is even more labor-intensive, how could it be like this.”

Li Shu is not insatiable, he is already very satisfied to have more than 500 articles, but he can't figure out how to open a small restaurant, the income is similar to that of pushing a small cart, and even more laborious , Thinking of today’s cooking at the back kitchen of Haoyue, the eldest daughter and daughter-in-law are bothering to cook and cook. The whole family is busy with work. It’s much harder than when they were making red tongs, but they didn’t earn much money in the end, Li Shu I am really puzzled.

Infected by Li Shu's doubts, the joy on the faces of the rest of the Li family was also dimmed, yes, how could this be the case.Among them, Li Miaoyue, who wanted to open a small restaurant, was even more confused.

Although everyone's emotions are not too high, the Li family's dinner is still very rich. Li Yayue and Yu Shi's idea is very simple. They have made so many delicious food for others outside, so it makes no sense for the family to work hard. It's not as good as others to eat for a day.

The Li family has also been busy all day. At this time, they can eat two bowls of white rice smelling the smell of meat, not to mention there are so many delicious foods. hapiness.

After filling the stomach, the topic returned to the income of the small restaurant.

Li Shu first said: "I thought about it carefully. This is just the beginning. It will get better and better in the future, or it will be worse every day. It all depends on our business. Now I am getting frustrated. If we continue to do this in the future, how can we make money? ?Let’s think about it now, what can be improved, and strive to get better and better in the future. Even if there is no improvement, I can earn more than 500 texts a day. Very satisfied."

The last sentence is more like comforting the rest of the Li family.

Li Miaoyue frowned: "The first thing to be sure is that our raw materials must be used well, and we can't use those low-cost bad things as good ones. This is the most basic sincerity in business, and it cannot be lost. It would be bad if someone else eats it badly."

The Li family all expressed their affirmation.

After being encouraged, Li Miaoyue became confident again: "The other thing is our taste. I think the cooking of the eldest sister and mother is already very good. Compared with other restaurants in the town, the taste is already above average. level."

But why is the income of small restaurants not as good as other restaurants?I always heard people in the town say that a high-level restaurant can earn more than 900 yuan a day, which is considered an average level.

Li Miaoyue's voice lowered again: "It may be that our family has just opened, and the reputation has not yet been established."

Everyone in Li's family nodded, trying to convince themselves with this statement, but in fact, it's not that good food restaurants don't have a reputation for their signatures. Those who are willing to go to the restaurant are a little curious about their shop.

No one spoke at the dinner table for a while, even Li Miaoyue stopped talking and ate in silence.

At this moment, a voice broke the silence.

"Daddy, could it be that our serving time is too slow? I heard from the uncles and aunts who came to eat in the store that there are many chefs cooking together in other restaurants, and we only have mother and eldest sister. Could it be During the meeting, it took too long for us to prepare the dishes and serve them, so uncle and aunt couldn't wait and left?"

Li Fuyue still tilted her head, looking very innocent, but she got the point straight.

"Fubao and Xiao Congxin were sitting at the door, and saw many uncles and aunts leaving without eating."

This is also what Li Fuyue observed objectively at the door. Many customers came in and waited for a while. Seeing that the Li family was very busy, they probably had to wait for a while, so they sat for a while and left. There was no way to stop them. Wait, besides, it is true that the food is served too slowly, and there is no reason for people to wait.

Lu Yuan also nodded, expressing his agreement: "Indeed, some aunts were reluctant to eat in the store. Seeing that we didn't serve food for a while, they took their families away."

Only then did everyone at the dinner table find a point that could be improved, and the atmosphere was finally not so dull.

Li Yayue thought for a while and said: "Mother and I are cooking in the back kitchen, there is indeed no room for speeding up. Dad and Miaoyue are not good at cooking either. Do we need to hire another cook?"

Lu Yuan hurriedly answered at this time: "I can also help out in the back kitchen."

Lu Yuan looked scholarly, but in fact he was also good at cooking.

But Li Shu shook his head: "You are already busy enough in the lobby as the waiter and accountant, so let's forget it."

If they just want to hire a cook, they only earn more than 500 yuan a day now, and they may not have this amount in the future. Hiring a slightly better cook is a lot of money.

While eating obediently again, Li Fuyue raised her opinion: "Daddy, we don't have to hire an extra uncle or aunt to be the cook! As long as the time for serving the food is faster, wouldn't it be fine?"

Seeing the sparkling eyes of the little girl, Li Shu really couldn't beat her, but he had to say this: "Fu Bao, if you want to serve the food faster, you need to add one more person to help cook."

Li Fuyue looked puzzled, but stopped talking.

The next day, Yu's mother and son, Li Shu, Li Yayue, and Lu Yuan went to the small restaurant early in the morning, while Li Miaoyue and Li Fuyue stayed at home.

At dusk, when a group of people came back exhausted, they saw smoke from their house.

Um?What's going on, did Li Miaoyue cook dinner herself today?These are the words on everyone's mind back home.

After Li Shu put down the things in his hands, he went to the door of the kitchen to look around. He happened to see two sisters, Li Miaoyue and Li Fuyue, busy there. He couldn't help being curious: "Miaoya, what are you two sisters doing? Cook?"

After saying this, Li Shu couldn't help but the corners of his mouth trembled slightly. He knew in his heart that how good his eldest daughter was at cooking, and how talented his second daughter was at cooking. Not really tasty.

Li Miaoyue looked back, but smiled: "I'm cooking tonight, don't worry, you all wash your hands first, go sit in the main room and wait for dinner, you won't be disappointed."

Li Shu and Li Yayue looked at each other, as if resigned to their fate, let her make a fuss even if it is a toss.

Li Yayue then asked: "Do you need me to help?"

"Oh, no need," Li Miaoyue came over and pushed her father and elder sister to the main room, "It's enough for Fubao to help me."

Fubao?For a while, Li Shu and Li Yayue felt that this meal was even more mysterious.

When the whole family had packed up and sat around the table in the main room, someone came out from the kitchen with things.

First, Li Fuyue brought small pottery dishes to the table, which contained hot sesame seeds, white salt, minced garlic, and sesame oil. The Li family looked at each other and found that everyone's pottery bowls were similar, and they were all confused. Why not let them eat this?Although it smells delicious, it can't be eaten as a meal!

After Li Fuyue put the dishes away, she ran back to the kitchen on her short legs. At this time, Li Miaoyue was carrying a large pot of things, placed it in the middle of the table, and put a large pot of white rice over: "OK Alright, let's eat."

This is the beginning to eat?
The Li family fixed their eyes on the things on the table.

The two pots were all white. One pot was familiar to them, and it was white rice, while the other pot was tofu, which looked very tender.

Li Yayue tried to pick it up with chopsticks, but found that it couldn't be picked up like the tofu she usually sees. The tofu was too tender, and it was still soaked in water.

Li Miaoyue handed over a big spoon at the right time: "Sister, first fill the bowl with rice, then use the spoon to scoop up the tofu, put it on top of the rice, and then eat it with the dipping sauce."

Li Miaoyue explained in great detail, and demonstrated it while speaking. When the rest of the people saw it, they hesitated to follow what she said.When the tofu was eaten, several people realized that this tofu was different from the firm tofu they usually eat. This kind of tofu was whiter, tenderer and smoother, and could even be drunk directly into the stomach.

Hearing what Li Miaoyue said again, he put the sauce from the pottery dish on the tofu and ate it with the rice.

Li Shu opened his eyes slightly, because of the unique and delicate taste in his mouth.

The tofu itself has only a vegetarian taste, but with the addition of garlic, sesame seeds and hot oil, the taste becomes more diverse, and it is also special to serve with rice. When Li Miaoyue brought the big bowl of rice, Li Shu was also worried that there would be too much, but after looking at it now, it probably wasn't enough to eat!
