Chapter 111 Snack Rotation, Initial Promotion
After returning home, the family didn't go out again. They had a great time eating and playing these past two days.

Chen Zhou chatted with his wife about his junior sister.

The two decided not to interfere too much.

First of all, in their eyes, Wang Meng was a very reliable young man, and there was nothing wrong with his character and his work.

Whether it was Chen Zhou's first impression or their later collaboration on video shoots, it all contributed to this impression.

He always comes across as reliable and responsible.

The advice given to Chen Zhou in dealing with the inspection—to leave a few minor flaws that are easy to correct—also reveals his wisdom in dealing with people.

Although he seemed a bit awkward around his junior sister, he wasn't usually like that.

When Wang was mentioned, Ms. Lin couldn't help but add, "He's quite a good catch, with a stable job."

My wife is very practical.

Secondly, Zhao Yilin is a grown woman, so we should take her personal opinion into consideration.

Whether you get married or not, as long as you're happy, that's all that matters.

Chen Zhou said to his wife, "I really hope to keep this store open until I retire. When I can't work anymore, I'll have Tao Tao and her sister Zhao work with me."

"That's still thirty years away."

"You can stay the boss's wife forever, you'll always be the boss's mother."

When Chen Taotao heard her parents mention her in their casual conversation, she quickly turned her head around.

"I like learning to play chess, Dad. I don't want to go to work."

"Of course you'd like it," Chen Zhou thought. "You'd have great food and drinks, and someone to play with."

He smiled and patted his daughter's head.

"I'll send you there tomorrow."

"Good~"

The couple both support their daughter having her own hobbies and interests.

But this account seems to have gone a bit astray. It doesn't align with the father's beautiful vision.

Ms. Lin was thinking about the roasted chives Chen Zhou had mentioned on the way back.

Her goal was to become a reasonably competent housewife, so she wasn't satisfied with only having two signature dishes. So she asked her husband:
"Didn't you say you were going to teach me how to grill chives?"

"Then I'll have to teach you separately."

On Sunday, the shop officially decided to make roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) the first of the weekly rotating snacks.

Chen Zhou had obtained the recipe from the recollections of the two renovation workers. The recipe did not include green peppers.

However, it is indeed sold locally.

Whether to add it or not is entirely up to the customer, so the shop prepares it accordingly. After all, there are four ways to write the character for fennel, let alone when it comes to cooking.

This is a very inclusive city.

The breathable food-grade paper packaging bags he had bought earlier were becoming insufficient, so Chen Zhou purchased some more to meet his future needs for takeout.

Although it's best to eat it while it's hot, there are always customers who need to take it away for various reasons.

Chen Zhou used to bring breakfast to work.

There's nothing we can do about it.

All Chen Zhou can do is try his best to make the customer experience better.

Ms. Zhou Tianlin happened to be at home, so she brought her child to the store and updated a video.

She plans to use her "gentle and unassuming" account to promote her husband.

Ms. Lin didn't have any professional equipment, just a mobile phone.

The shooting technique is also very simple—

Photographs of the actual product:

"This is the meat inside a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger). We call it 'lazhirou' (braised pork). The broth solidifies and becomes like wax, hence the name."

The filling for the cooked meat buns in the shop is also made with it.

Then, this is the Baiji bun, which has a crispy outer crust while remaining soft inside.

Two sandwiched together make a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger).

You can ask the butcher to chop the meat into smaller pieces, or you can have a whole piece, including both the lean and fatty parts, sandwiched inside.

My hometown is in Shaanxi Province, and my personal assessment is...

"It's beautiful!" the little girl exclaimed, joining in the fun.

"That's wonderful!" Lin Yifan finished recording.

There was some background noise in the video she filmed.

It's a conversation with her daughter, asking her husband to put the meat in the steamed bun, and customers around her ordering food.

The camera sometimes shakes a couple of times.

But she didn't care about any of that and just uploaded it.

It emphasizes authenticity and simplicity.

Chen Zhou also posted the complete version of the new roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) in the customer group (owner group).

I'm not a foodie, so I'll be the first to respond:
"When I first tasted the cooked meat buns, I felt that Boss Chen had a trick up his sleeve. It turns out he was waiting for me with the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger). Okay, I'll scout it out for everyone first."

This person is probably a freelancer and doesn't need to work in an office.

Chen Zhou would see him at various times during business hours.

Because Zihan's mother genuinely received the employee benefits that the old lady brought home, she spared no effort in promoting Mr. Chen's products.

"This roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) looks delicious! [Mouthwatering]"

Several messages were sent in a row.

Property manager Gao followed closely behind and gave a thumbs up.

At the same time, Aunt Zheng was rolling out dumpling wrappers when her phone, which was on the cabinet, rang.

She looked up and saw that the screen was lit up; it was a message from Zihan's mother.

Aunt Zheng's phone has a large font size, so the information on the screen is not fully displayed, but it starts with "Mom" and ends with "roujiamo" (Chinese hamburger).

The older woman understood what her daughter-in-law meant.

She felt a little embarrassed because she was always bothering the shop owner.

But recently, Aunt Zheng's relationship with her daughter-in-law has become much more harmonious, and she knows why without having to think too much about it. So even though she was a little embarrassed, she mentioned it to her boss.

"Boss, I'd like to take a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) home for lunch."

"no problem."

How could the staff meals not be filling? Chen Zhou casually packed two to go.

Upon hearing this, Aunt Zheng happily resumed wrapping the steamed buns. The boss had entrusted her with the task of making steamed buns for lunch. She felt trusted and valued.

She felt very secure working at the store because of the good pay and the kind boss.

When there are no competitors, it's a bit boring to keep going.

She remembered a video she had seen before, which said that when people get old, their biggest opponent is themselves.

So they put in all their effort again.

Compete against yourself.

When Chen Zhou took Chen Taotao to school that day, he also brought roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) for Teacher Wei and the other teacher.

One slightly larger one, two regular ones, and one smaller one.

The different dietary needs of the diners were fully taken into account.

Chen Zhou said to the two elders:
"I launched a new product in my store, but I don't know how it's doing. Teacher Wei, could you please give me some feedback?"

"Oh dear, I don't know anything about these things." Teacher Wei took the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and laughed, "Xiao Chen, you're too kind."

A large roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) couldn't be contained in a single paper bag, and Wei Xiaoxi really liked it.

She had her husband teach her math first today, and then chatted with Chen Zhou, asking about the shop's business.

Chen Zhou then briefly introduced that they currently offer steamed buns, porridge, and tea eggs, and plan to launch several snacks.

After hearing this, Teacher Wei quickly got Chen Zhou a box of tea.

"It was a gift from a student. I can't finish it all. I'll use it to make tea eggs when I get back."

Teacher Wei was quite polite when she mentioned her students, and Chen Zhou asked her a few simple questions.

The main purpose was to see what Teacher Wei thought about opening the class.

The old lady was quite happy to promote traditional culture, but she did consider that her students were already teachers at the chess academy, and that her students and grand-students were all in the training business.

They had just returned from abroad and weren't particularly sociable. Although a few acquaintances and friends were interested, they weren't local.

Therefore, the two elders' idea remained in its nascent stage.

Chen Zhou silently wrote it down.

I come into contact with many customers every day, so maybe I can help them out someday.
