The Blessing of the Qi Nv of Transmigration

Chapter 42

Since then, Yang Feier went to work in Zhang's house every day, and there was also a carriage to pick him up every day. The Hu family cleaned up the shop, and Yang Feier stayed in Zhang's house until the end of October. So he resigned from Mrs. Zhang.

On the [-]th day of October, at the time of Chen Shi, firecrackers were set off at the entrance of the store, and the official opening was announced. All the acquaintances were not informed, only the Zhang family lived in the city, and Yang Feier went to work in the Zhang family every day, so the Zhang family naturally knew about it. Mrs. Zhang asked Zhang Fuzhen to act as a representative, and delivered eight taels of silver in the morning, and hung eight sides of red (silk and satin quilt), four sides on the left and four sides on the left and right sides, to mean that everything goes well and money comes from all directions, and a congratulatory message is sewn on it.

The surrounding crowd felt that this shop was really shabby when it was opened, and when another shop was opened, there were at least forty or fifty horses hanging red, lined up on the bamboo poles at the door, overlapping one another, it was a scene.

But carefully looking at the inscription of the congratulatory message, it turned out to be Zhang's family on Changning Street. He was immediately in awe, and kept silent. All the business in this area is academies, and he is familiar with the personnel and affairs in the education field. , naturally know what the status of the Zhang family is now.

how?Does it have anything to do with Zhang Ji Restaurant?Naturally, I dare not underestimate it, and I don't feel that this family is shabby anymore, I just say that it is low-key.

Amidst the sound of firecrackers, the red silk on the plaque was removed, and everyone looked up curiously, only to see the words "Phil Sweet" in fluorescent white obliquely written on the ocher background plaque in a font that had never been seen before. There are large characters, and there is a string of exotic characters next to it. When the firecracker smoke dissipated, onlookers from the left and right neighbors went in one after another to visit. They have always seen the door panels on this store. Dim sum business.

At a glance, I can see that the pavement is spacious and leads directly to the backyard. On the right side is a wall of display racks, displaying strangely shaped snacks that have never been seen before, but very elegant and generous. There are one floor, two floors, and three floors. Round, square, heart-shaped, etc., all kinds of animal flower-shaped characters are depicted on them, exuding sweet and milky fragrance.There is a small sign next to it, which says, single-layer seven-inch cream cake, double-layer nine-inch yellow peach cake, three-layer twelve-inch fawn cake, etc. I just knew that this dessert is called cake.

On the left side, there is a counter with a fold of four feet and a height of twelve feet. Behind the counter is a wall of calligraphy and painting, divided into five couplets.

One couplet depicts an old lady, surrounded by her children and grandchildren, and a group of servants standing in the distance. There is a cake on the table in front of the old lady, with a red-headed and pink-body big birthday peach on it, and everyone's face is red. , with a smile on her face, with four poems on her head: The queen mother picks peaches and returns them on the sea, and the blue bird circles first in front of the palace.Where did the blue sky come from? The jade plate was presented to the king.

The diptych depicts a chubby one-year-old child, hugged in the arms of a young and beautiful woman in brocade clothes and gold and silver, and next to him is a handsome young man in a beautiful dress and crown, embracing the mother and child in one hand, and holding a rattle in the other, Looking at Xiao'er with a smile, surrounded by family members of all ages and servants, Xiao'er opened his curious eyes, smiled and stretched out his hand to reach for the cake in front of him. On the cake was the zodiac sign of last year, a naive and pitiful lamb, There are four lines of poems on the head: Last autumn is not yet auspicious today, God bestows Qilin Xi Nongzhang, celebrates the first birthday with a cup of cup, and Kunpeng strives to soar in the universe.

The triptych depicts a pair of newlyweds holding the two ends of red silk knotted flowers, the red background, and a double-layer cake in the middle, with the red happy character painted on it, which looks festive.The eight poems on the head: When the concubine was not married at the beginning, she was in her boudoir every morning and evening.It is more than fifteen years old, and its color is like a flower red.Thousands of miles away to get married, and there are many mountains to go out.Decorate with Jun Shengrong, and open Furong with a smile.

The quadruple painting shows a young man wearing a number one scholar hat, wearing red and hanging colors, riding a tall horse, firecrackers blare behind him, and his family greets him. A middle-aged woman is holding a double-layer cake in her hand, with tears in her eyes. The young man, the young man also looked at the woman, both of them had a cinnabar mole between their eyebrows, and at a glance they could tell they were mother and child.The first four poems: ten years of hard work, a fall into fame.It's not expensive to be promoted, so congratulate your relatives and Fang Shirong.

The pentagram depicts the eighth anniversary of a store, the firecrackers outside the store are filled with smoke, and the store is full of joy. A middle-aged man with the appearance of a businessman, with big ears and born with wealth, is holding a white wooden knife in the shape of a long triangle shovel with a smile on his face, cutting Open a giant eight-layer cake, surrounded by shopkeepers and guys, smiling.The four poems above the head: Eight years of hard work and hardships, the dream is in full swing, and the east wind is strong and the flowers are blooming.One leaf of Fenzhou leads to the sea, and the people of Kyushu share the same heart.

On the front counter are neatly placed rattan shallow square baskets, only half a foot high, filled with all kinds of snacks, and on each basket is inserted a card like a small round fan, with the name and price of the basket of snacks written on it. Some are called Shaqima, some are called egg tarts, some are called donuts, some are called puffs, some are called mochi, and some are called macarons...they are all unseen and unheard of.

Put a small plate on each basket with chopped snacks on it. Out of curiosity, everyone tasted each of them with the toothpicks inserted in it. Although they are all desserts, they each have their own flavors. The caron is deep sweet and soft, the egg tart is soft and tender, and the puffs are soft on the outside and sweet on the inside... Everyone is amazed and unbelievable. This is very different from the usual desserts. It is a wonderful taste that has never been tasted.

Going further inside is a small courtyard three feet wide and two feet long. Inside, four large oilcloth umbrellas are planted on the ground on both sides, leaving an aisle in the middle. The umbrellas are more than ten feet in diameter and made of red, white and blue. There is a round table, four chairs, and several plates of cakes cut into cubes on the round table for everyone to taste for free. There is a group of paintings hanging on the wall of the courtyard, which depicts the most primitive appearance of various ingredients. The doors and windows of the courtyard and kitchen are all used Umbrella ochre-coloured drape under cover, keeping the wall intact, is also a decoration.

The innermost part is an open production room, where Wang, Shen and Yang Feier are busy. They wear ocher triangular hairstyles on their heads, and wear a halter apron of the same color. The left chest of the apron is lined with a bright yellow line. The four characters "Phil Sweet" are embroidered in the same font as the plaque at the door, which can be distinguished from customers and is neat and unified.

The overall style of the shop presents a new and unique personality. Compared with other dim sum shops today, the light is sufficient, the colors are simple and clear, and even the production room is no longer secretive. A drawer of dim sum is out of the pan, then dumped on the front counter and cut into small pieces, individually packaged, and I don’t know the exact formula.

Those neighbors who were originally planning to just watch, after tasting, couldn't bear the gluttons, and bought it one after another, only to find that the price is a bit expensive, and most people can only taste it for a while, and the poor can't afford it. It is positioned in the mid-to-high-end market group, but still buy more or less to bring home a novelty for the family.

At noon, when the academy finished school, the students who came out to eat found a newly opened shop on this street. When they went in, they found that the snacks were beautiful and unique, elegant and high-end, and very sweet.The sixteen chairs in the courtyard were placed against the wall, and there was no place to sit. Everyone was standing in the courtyard, holding a lace cardboard plate in their hands, tasting free tasting cakes and snacks. The small courtyard was crowded with people for a while. Everyone bumps into each other, and they all call for friends and companions, and come one after another.

In addition, the students who will be leaving next year will also order the same cake when they see the No. [-] Scholar and the second painting, hoping to bring good luck to themselves. For those who have nephews and nieces celebrating their birthdays, or those who have relatives and friends who have opened a business or held a wedding, and are thinking hard about what gift to give, they also pay in advance to order various cakes.

At the counter in front, Hu Kang and Zhang Fuzhen were so soft on taking orders and collecting money, Father Hu and Hu Yongqiang were busy weighing, bagging, collecting and changing the dim sum, and had no time for others.Zhang An took the twins back and forth to deliver cakes and snacks, to deal with customer inquiries, and to clean up.

Yang Feier and Shen Shi Wang have been busy in the production room. In this era, there are no freezers, and almost all dim sum must be sold on the same day and cannot be stored. It will affect sales and give consumers a bad impression.

After a day like this, by the time the doors were closed at night, the family was extremely exhausted and hadn't eaten lunch. Together with Zhang Fuzhen and his thousand-year-old book boy Zhang An, they only took some snacks to satisfy their hunger.

If you are tired, you will be tired. Take out the money box and count today's turnover, not counting the unscheduled payment, but only the cash, which is as much as [-] yuan.

Sitting in the dining room, the whole family was filled with joy and worried about the situation of tomorrow.
Yang Feier was so tired that he lay faceless on the table, with his chin on his arm, and said: "Mistake! How did you expect the purchasing power here to be so amazing? I thought it would be more economical if it was positioned as a mid-to-high end. If I want to do this again tomorrow, I can't He was going to vomit blood and die from exhaustion."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly poohed a few times, babbling Tongyan Wuji, and said: "Your mother and I are fine. Seeing what you have been doing for a long time, it is probably about the same. Tomorrow, you should watch more and do less. Tired out your little body."

Zhang Fuzhen said: "It's not an option to go on like this. Why don't I ask shopkeeper Zhou to send you manpower from Ruifuxian, so I'll be busy for a while, and then I'll see how the business is going, and then make plans?"

Yang Feier said: "I heard from Chef Li the day before yesterday that there were a lot of orders for roast ducks, and the daily supply of [-] pieces was not enough. The order has already been queued for a month, and some savvy staff will go to the roast duck side. I became an apprentice, and some people from faraway families were sent back to other places to buy raw ducks. There is also a shortage of manpower in the kitchen, and I have been recruiting people recently. Where can I spare manpower for me?
After hearing this, the whole family knew that Yang Feier also taught the skill of roast duck, and now it is so popular, and they were happy for her, but they continued to worry about it.

Father Hu said: "This cake and dim sum is no better than roast duck. After all, it is not a meal. It seems that the business is good at present, but I don't know how it will be in the future. If everyone just wants to find something new, now we recruit people, what will happen in the future? "

Hu Yongqiang was silent for a while, and finally said: "Tomorrow is worse than this, first put up the recruitment notice, declare that it is a part-time job, and then decide whether to continue the employment."

Hearing this, Yang Feier raised his head happily and said, "It's because Daddy has a good mind, so it's such a happy decision!" Then he said to Hu Kang: "Brother, then I have to thank you for writing this notice."

Hu Kang laughed and said, "It's my duty!"

Zhang An came in and said: "Grandparents, uncles, aunts, sons and daughters, the dishes at Gaosheng Restaurant have been cooked for the table, please go over there and have dinner before we talk."

After a busy day, I can't afford to cook dinner anymore. Besides, it's opening today, so how can we not treat him formally? Even if it's only the Zhang family who come to favor us, we must treat him well.
