The happy little days of the Ye family

After breakfast, Father Ye came to Mrs. Ye's room, and at this time Mrs. Ye was making the new headband that Wang Chunyu had just come up with.

Seeing Father Ye coming over, Mrs. Ye put down her needle and thread and raised her head.

I saw Father Ye casually pulling up a chair and sitting down.

"Mom, the business of the braised pork shop is getting worse every day. You only know that the money paid to the public last month was only one tael."

"If you rent out the shop, you can get a rent of eight or nine hundred yuan a month. I have discussed it with Xiu Xiu and want to close the braised pork shop. I will set up a stall exclusively on North Street from now on."

"By the way, I will go to a nearby village to work as a salesman and collect some novel and interesting things to sell on Bei Street."

Mrs. Ye was still calm and said calmly:

"Just make up your mind. Your father and I won't interfere with your decision. The shop is closed. What about the recipe for roast duck? Do you want to keep it or sell it?"

Father Ye said without hesitation: "It's better to keep the roast duck recipe, just in case you need it in the future."

But then he added with a smile, "But if the Bai Family Restaurant is willing to spend a lot of money, I won't be able to consider it."

"We will discuss the shop tonight to see who wants to open a shop. If not, we will rent it out directly."

Mrs. Ye nodded to show that she understood, smiled and said: "You can decide for yourself, your father and I will not get involved."

After coming out of Mrs. Ye's house, Father Ye went out with roast duck, roast chicken, pastries and a large cart of groceries.

At this moment in the Bai Family Restaurant, Bai Shi was looking through yesterday's account books, racking his brains to think about how to surpass the Zhang Family Restaurant.

Suddenly, Bai Shi's son Bai Yaowen hurried in.

"Dad, something bad has happened. Zhang Family Restaurant actually cooked roast duck."

Shiraishi suddenly stood up from his chair and exclaimed: "What did you say? Explain the matter carefully and clearly."

"Didn't I find someone to keep an eye on Zhangjia Restaurant? I heard that Zhangjia Restaurant has recently developed roast duck and will sell it in the restaurant today for 80 yuan per roast duck."

Bai Shi's face turned pale. Zhang's restaurant's signature roast chicken alone was already overwhelming their Zhang's restaurant. If they added roast duck, their Bai's restaurant would never be able to succeed.

Bai Yaowen added: "I have arranged for someone to guard Zhangjia Restaurant. I will deliver the roast duck when I get it at noon."

The Zhang Family Restaurant launched roast duck, and not only the Bai family and his son knew about it, but many people in the town also knew about it.

Ye Donglin learned from his aunt who came to buy vegetables that Zhangjia Restaurant would also sell roast duck, and it would still cost 80 yuan a piece.

The women in the neighborhood were already used to the fact that the roast duck at Ye's house sold for 60 Wen each. Suddenly they found out that the roast duck at Zhang's Restaurant cost 80 Wen. Several aunts had been scolding Zhang's Restaurant for being evil.

At this time, Ye Donglin had no time to pay attention to these women, and hurriedly ran next door to find Ye's father.

When Father Ye knew that Zhangjia Restaurant had developed roast duck, he felt panicked and then frowned.

Ye Donglin was a little worried: "Zhang's Restaurant has discovered the roast duck, so won't the roast duck recipe we have now be worthless?"

Father Ye is also worried. This roast duck and roast chicken is not a difficult dish. If you have an oven, you can easily figure it out after thinking about it.

It is estimated that in a few years, many restaurants will be able to produce this roast duck, and then the roast duck recipe they have will really be worthless.

At this time, Ye's father regretted that he did not agree to Bai Dong's family to sell the prescription yesterday.

At noon, Father Ye had no intention of selling lunch at the braised pork shop. He went to Zhangjia Restaurant and queued up to buy half a roast duck.

After getting the roast duck back, the father and son couldn't wait to taste it.

The roast duck at Zhangjia Restaurant is not as good as their signature roast chicken. The taste can only be said to be average, about the same as the roast duck sold by their Ye family.

At least it's not as good as the roast duck at Zuixianju in the county.

The father and son tasted the roast duck at Zhangjia Restaurant and felt a little more relaxed. They were not as nervous as they were in the morning.

Father Ye felt that at this time, the most nervous person should be Bai Dongjia of Baijia Restaurant.

Father Ye and Ye Donglin discussed it and felt that since Zhangjia Restaurant could develop roast duck, other restaurants would be able to develop it sooner or later.

If other people figure it out, the recipe they have will become less and less valuable.

Moreover, Father Ye does not intend to continue to open this braised pork shop. It is better to sell this recipe at a high price while Bai's restaurant is in urgent need of this recipe.

Bai Shi was really anxious. As soon as Ye's father opened the stall in the afternoon, Bai Shi hurried to Ye's father's stall.

Father Ye packed up the things at the stall and went to the nearby Bai's restaurant with Bai Shi.

It was already past meal time, and Bai's restaurant was deserted, with only a few waiters cleaning.

However, the business of the Bai Family Restaurant was not good today. There were very few people eating at lunch, and the guests were all attracted to the Zhang Family Restaurant.

Baishi took Father Ye to an elegant and quiet wing. After some intense bargaining, the two finally settled on 120 taels for the roast duck.

Shiraishi thought for a while and added: "I can pay these 120 taels, but I have a condition. You can't sell this roast duck on North Street in the future."

Ye's father's roast duck sells for 65 Wen each, so how can the roast duck at their Zhangjia Restaurant sell for 80 Wen each? And they are so close, they will definitely compete for each other's business. "

Father Ye naturally refused, "Shopkeeper Bai, the 120 taels can only be the seller's money. If you don't let me set up a stall to sell roast duck, I will be at a huge loss. This is another price."

Baishi proudly took out two silver notes, one was for 100 taels, and the other was for 50 taels.

"I will pay 150 taels of silver for your roast duck recipe, but you will not be able to sell roast duck on North Street in the future."

"If you agree, the banknote will be yours. If you don't agree, I will take the money and go to the Zhang Family Restaurant to recruit their chef."

Father Ye also accepted it as soon as it was good, and happily accepted the 150 taels of silver notes.

If he can't sell roast duck on North Street, he can still go to the market to sell roast duck during the big market. The mountains are immovable and the water is immovable, so people have to be flexible.
