backyard.
The sun shines through the huge and vigorous canopy of the saponin tree, and the green brick floor in the courtyard is full of fine and mottled light and shadow.
Shen Jiyao was holding Xiaodoumi who had already woken up in one hand, while he was padding his feet to reach the hanging saponins leaves. He tore off a leaf and handed it to Xiaodoumi. Xiaodoumi took the leaf and looked at it curiously, wanting to go With stuffing in his mouth, Shen Jiyao quickly grabbed his little hand and said, "I can't eat it, I just hold it for fun."
Xiao Doumi looked at Shen Jiyao seriously with brighter eyes after crying, as if responding to him, he held the leaf in his hand, then jumped up and down happily in Shen Jiyao's arms and giggled , Shen Jiyao saw that he finally smiled, finally felt at ease, and laughed along with Xiao Doumi, he leaned over and kissed Xiao Doumi's cheek, and Xiao Doumi's smile became brighter in an instant, Shen Jiyao realized that Xiao Doumi only wanted him to be with Lan Qianjue As soon as he kissed him, he would smile happily, so he gently kissed his soft little face, and Xiao Doumi couldn't stop giggling.
Over there, Lan Qianjue happened to see this scene when he came to the backyard, and his heart suddenly softened. Seeing the two people he loves smiling so happily, he already felt that life has no regrets. He slightly raised his lips and smiled, With doting tenderness in his eyes, he walked to Shen Jiyao's side and laughed with the two of them. Seeing him coming, Shen Jiyao smiled tacitly at him.
Lan Qianjue looked at Xiao Doumi whose eyes were still a little swollen but who was smiling happily, and said with a helpless smile: "I finally laughed, it seems that it is really because of that sentence, I can't talk nonsense in front of him in the future It's gone." He said as he stretched out his hand to Xiaodoumi, wanting to see if he wanted to hug him.
Shen Jiyao said triumphantly: "My son is so smart, he can listen to anything."
Lan Qianjue was noncommittal, and liked Shen Jiyao's conceited appearance very much.
Xiao Doumi opened her small mouth and glanced at Lan Qianjue, then smiled excitedly and threw herself into Lan Qianjue's arms without hesitation. Lan Qianjue hurriedly caught him, worried that Xiao Doumi would not want her The tension in the hug dissipated immediately, Lan Qianjue kissed him on the face with a smile, Shen Jiyao felt amused and raised his hand to touch Xiaodoumi's head with a loose bun on top, the atmosphere between the three of them was very harmonious and happy.
Lan Qianjue reached out to pull Shen Jiyao into his arms, leaned forward and kissed his forehead, and Shen Jiyao meekly leaned on Lan Qianjue's arms and held Xiaodoumi's hand and kissed him.
The three of them snuggled together quietly under the saponins tree, and a cool breeze blew from the yard, blowing the leaves that fell on the ground far away.
The two stood in the courtyard for a while, then Wang Yueer came to the backyard to look for them, and said that it was Xiaosi and the others who planned to go back to the village, so she asked her to tell them.
The two looked at each other, and went to say goodbye to several people with Xiaodoumi in their arms. They all thanked Shen Jiyao for his hospitality. Before leaving, Xiao Si said that he would go to the village to see what happened to his sisters-in-law, and come back when he is free. Tell them that Shen Jiyao pretended to be disdainful and answered a few words, but in fact he was very curious about their fate.
If it falls into the hands of those villagers, it is estimated that there will be no good fruit to eat.
After sending a few people away, Shen Jiyao took Xiaodoumi to the house to sleep for a while. He originally planned to put people to sleep and then go to buy the ingredients for the night, but Xiaodoumi was scared once, Shen Jiyao After walking for a while, he was crying and was carried out by his second sister. Shen Jiyao had no choice but to take Xiaodoumi, who was crying pitifully, and hug him again. He couldn't get away temporarily, so he had to draw up a list for Xu Rong and the others. When he went to buy it, he carried Xiaodoumi on his body with a strap, and cooked and cut meat with Lan Qianjue in the kitchen.
Shen Jiyao wanted to cut the cooked meat himself, but Lan Qianjue took it, and Shen Jiyao saw Lan Qianjue's knife skills.
His knife skills are indeed not bad or even excellent. The cooked pork is cut into slices, neither thin nor thick. The most amazing thing is that the cut of a piece of meat is not much different from the last piece. This really surprised Shen Jiyao. You know, pork is irregular, it will be cut smaller and smaller, and it will be impossible to hold it when it is cut. This knife skill can also be used as a prick in modern times. It seems that Lan Qianjue's decision was very correct.
He is the one who is sure to make a decision.
Lan Qianjue saw that he had been staring at her side, so he turned his head to look at him, and continued to chop vegetables without being affected at all, and said, "This is the way to chop."
Shen Jiyao praised sincerely: "It was cut very well, and I will leave it to you to cut the vegetables in the future."
Lan Qianjue smiled and said, "Okay, from now on I will be your assistant and chop vegetables for you, and you just fry them."
Shen Jiyao hummed, continued chopping ribs, and said, "Our dishes are too few. I want to add a few more meat dishes to make it our restaurant's signature dish. What do you think?"
Lan Qianjue said, "What signature dish?"
"That's right, it means our restaurant's best dishes. I want to make stewed vegetables and pure meat dishes." Shen Jiyao said: "Although there are many meat dishes, there are too few big ones, except for fried chicken and fried rabbit, stewed dishes We don’t have any chickens, and it’s also because we are too busy to prepare anything, so I plan to add a few more vegetables, and when I become proficient and the vegetables in the field are ripe, I will continue to add other vegetables.”
Lan Qianjue turned to look carefully at the recipes pasted on the wall above the stove, and after a moment of serious thinking, he said: "There are 53 dishes in total, meat dishes account for most of them, and there are a few dishes with similar recipes. , will it be too much, and the guests will get tired of eating it a few times."
"I think it's different from these." Shen Jiyao said: "Have you ever eaten stewed vegetables, such as stewed meat or stewed chicken legs, chicken feet, and stewed goose wings, foie gras, goose palm and goose heart, almost anything is fine. Take it in and marinate, you can also marinate eggs, potato tofu, braised hoofs or cold braised pork.”
Lan Qianjue didn't understand what this halogen was at all, so he said doubtfully, "What is halogen?"
Shen Jiyao was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly asked, "Are there any braised vegetables for sale in the town?"
"I've never heard of it." Lan Qianjue said, "Is this recorded in that recipe?"
Shen Jiyao was immediately excited, there is no stewed vegetables in this world? ! !Then wouldn't he blow up the town after he made it?Maybe it will be famous all over the world in the future!The more Shen Jiyao thought about it, the more excited he became. He had to make this stewed dish. The corners of his lips curled up uncontrollably, and his eyes were full of excitement. Seeing him like this, Lan Qianjue knew that he might have thought of something again. The dishes are ready, so I asked: "How is the taste of the stewed vegetables you mentioned? You can try it first. It has just opened not long ago, and the required ingredients are not ready yet. It is still at the juncture that you have to buy what you need. , you can do it if you want, but I think we should wait for the restaurant to get started first, and it won’t be too late to make the stewed vegetables you mentioned when things go smoothly.”
Shen Jiyao's enthusiasm was instantly frozen by Lan Qianjue's words. He planned to do it tomorrow, but the actual situation did not allow it. Lan Qianjue was right. They really haven't stabilized yet. Now they are frying these dishes I'm a bit confused when I'm busy, not to mention them, even Zhang Yong and the others struggled to order food. If these dishes are added suddenly, everyone will feel uncomfortable. Why don't we just wait a few more days and wait for this to happen? The ingredients for more than 50 dishes can be prepared. It is estimated how many chickens and rabbits will be killed in a day before cooking, so as not to mess up the restaurant in time.
Therefore, Shen Jiyao said: "You are right, let's wait for a while to make it, and then we can introduce braised vegetables as a new dish to attract customers."
Lan Qianjue nodded and continued to cut the meat.
The two of them did their own thing, and Xiao Doumi yelled twice from time to time, lying on Shen Jiyao's back and playing with the little puppet that Shen Jiyao folded for him with a cloth towel. Looking at Lan Qianjue from his back, he was neither loud nor noisy, his appearance was so cute that even Lan Qianjue couldn't help sneaking in to kiss him when he saw it.
The two have been making ingredients in the kitchen, and the people outside are also very busy, cleaning and tidying up the table. The vegetables that should be washed, the dishes that should be washed, the division of labor is very clear, and Wang Yueer is in charge of taking care of it. At the counter and welcoming the guests who came in, she was busy arranging the menu. Zhou Laosan and others entered the restaurant. A group of people looked at the restaurant and couldn't help sighing, saying with emotion: "This restaurant is so grand, it's so impressive. There are two floors."
Wang Dazhuang was amazed, and said in a daze: "Brother Shen and the others have finally come out."
Zhang Quanwang was relatively calm, and he took it for granted: "With their ability, it will happen sooner or later."
Several people nodded in approval, Wang Yue'er hurriedly put away the menu, walked around the counter to greet them, and said, "Brother Zhou, Sister-in-law Zhou, you are here to find Big Brother Shen and the others. They are busy in the kitchen right now. Sit down first, I'll call them."
Mrs. Zhou took Xiaobao by the hand and said, "Don't bother you, we'll go and see by ourselves, Miss Yue'er, just show us where the kitchen is."
Wang Yueer hurriedly pointed to the kitchen and said, "That's it."
Mrs. Zhou thanked her, and they went to the kitchen.
The two of them were already busy at the moment, and they were waiting for Xu Rong and the others to buy pork liver and cut it up for preparation. They didn't know if they could still buy pork liver at this time. If they couldn't buy it, they couldn't fry pork liver at night. It's a waste of time, I hope it won't have too much impact on the business.
"Ahh." Xiao Doumi saw Zhang Tianci who was being hugged by Zhang Quanwang outside the kitchen door, and excitedly grabbed the puppet and yelled twice.
Shen Jiyao turned his head as if feeling something, and saw a group of people smiling and looking at him outside the kitchen, Shen Jiyao couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are here, first find a place to sit, We're pretty busy here too, and we'll come when it's done."
When Lan Qianjue heard this, she stopped what she was doing and looked at the people. Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "It's okay, you are busy with your work, don't worry about us, your restaurant is really good."
Shen Jiyao smiled and said, "It's okay, but the location is a bit off."
Brother Zhou said: "What are you afraid of? The food you cook is so delicious that many people come to eat it. That's all right. You guys do your work first. Let's take a look around."
Shen Jiyao nodded, and they left the kitchen and walked to the second floor.
After a while, Xu Rong and the others finally bought the ingredients and came back. The three of them made meat, pork liver and other things together, while the Li family brothers and the Zhao family brothers went to the backyard to kill chickens.
At the beginning of the Youshi period, everyone had finally prepared the ingredients. Shen Jiyao and Lan Qianjue had just sat down and chatted with the sisters-in-law Zhou, when some diners entered the restaurant, and several groups of people came in a row. There were three tables sitting at once, and the elder sister Zhang Yong and Li Erquan hurriedly took the menus to order for the three tables.
Sister-in-law Zhou and the others were more excited than Shen Jiyao and others when they saw the business. They all stood up and walked around in place, fidgeting and restless. Let’s rest for a while, Qian Jue and I will go to cook first.”
"All right, all of you, hurry up." Mrs. Zhou said, "Don't neglect the guests."
Lan Qianjue just wanted to say hello to Brother Zhou and the others, but Brother Zhou said, "Go quickly, business is important."
Lan Qianjue nodded, but Shen Jiyao didn't leave. He looked at Mrs. Zhou with some embarrassment in his arms and said, "Sister-in-law Zhou, can I trouble you to bring me some Doudou first, the cooking inside is a bit choking."
Aunt Zhou was about to reach out to pick up Xiao Doumi with all her promises, but Shen Jiyao was about to hand him over, but the next moment Xiao Doumi clung to Shen Jiyao's clothes, her face wrinkled, and she was about to cry.
Shen Jiyao hurriedly carried him back into his arms, kissed his head, and said, "Doudou, it's very choking inside. You and auntie stay here and wait for me. I'll come to you when I'm done. It's in there." Shen Jiyao said and pointed to the kitchen room, Xiaodoumi looked at Shen Jiyao with aggrieved eyes, but didn't cry.
Seeing that his mood was still stable, Shen Jiyao tentatively handed Xiaodoumi over. This time, Mrs. Zhou hugged her in her arms smoothly. Shen Jiyao raised his hand to touch Xiaodoumi, who had been pinching her small mouth, and said: "Daddy and daddy are right there. If you miss us, please ask auntie to bring you here."
"Ah." Xiao Doumi reached out to grab Shen Jiyao's hand, and Shen Jiyao held his little hand. He couldn't laugh or cry. This little thing is really clingy, and he was probably scared too badly. Lan Qianjue came over He touched Xiaodoumi's head and said, "Wait obediently, we will be here in a while."
Mrs. Zhou also just heard Shen Jiyao say that Xiao Doumi was scared by a word. His pitiful behavior made Mrs. Zhou feel distressed, so she patted him on the back and said, "Our Xiao Doumi is like a big kid, so we can't help it." This will make your two fathers cling to nothing, be good, your father and the others like good children, Xiao Doumi is so good, they are too late to love you, how could they not want you, be good, let your father and the others go Get busy."
Wang Dazhuang also said: "Isn't it, Xiao Doumi is obedient, let your father and the others go to work for a while, so that they can earn money to buy you delicious food."
If you want to say that Xiao Doumi is really smart, as soon as he said these few words, Shen Jiyao suddenly felt that Xiao Doumi's grip on his fingers became looser. Brother Xiaobao, God gave him to play and be obedient."
Seeing his son's sensible appearance, Lan Qianjue couldn't help but smile. Zhang Yong, who had already ordered the dishes, walked over and said, "Brother Shen, the dishes are ready, shall I put them in the kitchen for you?"
"Give it to me, you go and pour some water for the guests." Shen Jiyao took the menu and entered the kitchen with Lan Qianjue.
Xu Rong had already consciously raised the fire, arranged the seasonings for cooking, and just waited for them to cook.
The few of them got along very well, and after a whole morning's running-in, they cooperated very well now. Xu Rong was in charge of serving Shen Jiyao's dishes, and Lan Qianjue was cooking soup on another stove. If they couldn't meet fried chicken or rabbits, they could The frying was very fast, but now Shen Jiyao has come up with a trick. If someone stir-fries chicken, let Xu Rong fry it first and then let him fry it. This will not only save time, but also allow Xu Rong to exercise.
In just a quarter of an hour, the five dishes on the first table were all fried.
Zhang Yong and Wang Bao'er started to serve the guests, while Zhao Gou'er went to cook with a small wooden bucket.
The restaurant gradually became lively, and when it was time for dinner, the business was even better at night than at noon, and several people began to work non-stop. During this period, four or five tables came to eat spicy chicken. Best of all, the chopping of the chicken also fell on his head, and the stir-fry was handed over to Xu Rong, while Shen Jiyao would stir-fry the vegetables for the other tables first. Xu Rong was finally able to touch the stove, not to mention how happy he was.
More and more people came to eat, and a group of people were so busy that even Brother Zhou and the others started to help serve the dishes, but no one complained, the restaurant was full, and there were even people queuing outside. People in the shops on this street were dumbfounded by this scene. You know, this street has never been so lively.
During this period, Mrs. Zhou came to see Shen Jiyao and the others with Xiaodoumi in her arms, and then took Tianci Xiaobao to stay outside the kitchen. There were too many people and they had no place to sit.
Everyone was busy until the beginning of Haishi, and finally there were no diners coming again. Shen Jiyao fried all the dishes that everyone ate, and fried two chickens to entertain Brother Zhou and the others. After all the dishes were fried, he poured them all in Mix them together in a larger iron pot, and plan to make a hodgepodge to eat.
After preparing all these, several people left the kitchen, planning to eat when there were fewer people.
The restaurant was noisy, full of the smell of vegetables and wine. Xu Rong came out to help when he was busy. He didn't have the slightest intention of not helping because he had already divided the work. Shen Jiyao and Lan Qianjue came out of the kitchen one after the other. Xiao Doumi, who was waiting outside the kitchen, yelled twice and raised his little hands to let Shen Jiyao hug him. Shen Jiyao smelled of oily smoke all over his body, so he reached out to shake Xiao Doumi's hand and said: " Doudou wait a while, Daddy goes to wash his face before hugging."
Xiao Doumi pursed her mouth in disappointment, then looked at Lan Qianjue, and stretched out her short hands to hug her. Lan Qianjue was not so particular, and took Xiao Doumi directly, hugged her in her arms and kissed her twice. Disappointed, he laughed happily, jumping up and down in Lan Qianjue's arms.
Mrs. Zhou said with a smile, "This little thing is really smart."
Lan Qianjue looked at Xiao Doomi with a doting smile and said, "It's similar to Ji Yao, very smart."
As soon as the topic turned to Shen Jiyao, Mrs. Zhou had a lot to say, she said: "Isn't it? You are so smart and capable, and it's thanks to you that you didn't let him down. It's not easy for the two of you to get to this point, but you have to treat him well." That's right, for this family, he has worked hard enough, I just saw that he is the only one in charge, how hard it is."
Lan Qianjue looked at the happy customers in the store and said, "I know it's not easy for him, so sister-in-law don't worry, I will treat him and Doumi well."
"That's good." Sister-in-law Zhou saw Brother Zhou clumsily drinking in the corner, so she said, "I'll help Brother Zhou, you guys take a break."
Lan Qianjue was also polite: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
"Hi, you're welcome." Sister-in-law Zhou said, and went to help Brother Zhou get some wine.
Lan Qianjue held Xiao Doumi and stood there for a while, Shen Jiyao washed his face and came out, Xiao Doumi was impatient to rush into his father's arms, Shen Jiyao smiled and hugged Xiao Doumi and kissed her, watching After looking at the full restaurant, he said to Lan Qianjue, "Let's go to Yueer's to see how much money was sold today?"
Lan Qianjue hummed, and walked to the cashier with Shen Jiyao.
Wang Yue'er has been burying her head in checking the menu, calculating accounts, and summing up. She is also very busy. Fortunately, the method Shen Jiyao taught her is very simple and easy to understand, otherwise she probably wouldn't be able to do this. Xiaodoumi picked up a menu and looked at it for a while, and saw that the prices and totals of the dishes were correct, so she said, "Did you add the wine?"
Wang Yue'er glanced at the list in Shen Jiyao's hand, and said, "I've added it all, as long as Zhang Yong and the others tell me, I will write it on it."
Shen Jiyao looked at the other lists, and saw that some of the lists included four or five refills of wine. Then he nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's a good job, thanks for your hard work."
Wang Yue'er was praised and was in a good mood, so she pursed her lips and smiled.
Shen Jiyao picked up the other bills in one hand, and said, "Show me all the bills sold today, and I'll sum up the approximate amount of money sold."
Wang Yueer saw that his arm holding Xiaodoumi was trembling, she thought that she must be very tired after cooking all day, so she hurriedly got up and asked him to sit down, and handed him all the orders for today.
Shen Jiyao sat on the chair, carried Xiao Doumi on his lap, took the order and roughly calculated it, and was shocked by the total amount.
Lan Qianjue, who was on the side, was paying attention to Shen Jiyao's expression all the time, so he took his surprised look into his eyes and asked, "What?"
Shen Jiyao raised his head and said solemnly, "Guess how much silver we sold today."
Lan Qianjue thought to himself that there should be quite a lot, otherwise he wouldn't be able to look like this, so he smiled and said, "Tell me about it."
Shen Jiyao smiled and whispered joyfully, "About 100 taels!"
Lan Qianjue couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard this, and said in surprise, "There are so many?"
"Yes." Shen Jiyao said, "But this is within my budget. Today, I sold more than a dozen fried chickens, six braised rabbits, and almost all the other fried meat dishes. Let's talk about the ones we prepared. The ingredients are all used up, if you don’t sell so much, you won’t make much money.”
Lan Qianjue frowned and asked, "How much did you spend on the ingredients?"
Shen Jiyao said solemnly: "Let's not count which one, first calculate how much we spent to open this restaurant and then see if it makes money. Before we opened this restaurant, we had 670 taels and 350 taels. It took about 300 taels of silver before and after, plus it cost about 35 taels to buy things and wine today. If we can sell today’s amount in a day, then we can earn back the capital in a few days. The money spent to buy vegetables can be simply counted, and it will be clear at a glance how much you earn at night."
Lan Qianjue understood it as soon as he heard it, so he said: "After a few days, you can start to make money. If every day is like today, five or sixty taels a day will not be a problem."
Wang Yue'er on the side was stunned, this restaurant is so profitable, it is more than ten times that of the snack bar!
Shen Jiyao smiled and said: "That's natural. It's because we have few dishes and tricks. When you know how to cook in the future, I plan to try pastries. I can use them to sell them in restaurants by the way. It is estimated that it can also attract a group of people to eat in the restaurant, of course, my tricks are more than that, to ensure that I can make some delicious food to attract customers every time slot."
Lan Qianjue smiled and said, "You have a lot of ideas, just make up your own mind."
Shen Jiyao hummed, hugged Xiaodoumi and kissed her happily twice.
The sun shines through the huge and vigorous canopy of the saponin tree, and the green brick floor in the courtyard is full of fine and mottled light and shadow.
Shen Jiyao was holding Xiaodoumi who had already woken up in one hand, while he was padding his feet to reach the hanging saponins leaves. He tore off a leaf and handed it to Xiaodoumi.

Lan Qianjue said, "What signature dish?"

Shen Jiyao said: "Although there are many meat dishes, there are too few big ones, except for fried chicken and fried rabbit, stewed dishes We don’t have any chickens, and it’s also because we are too busy to prepare anything, so I plan to add a few more vegetables, and when I become proficient and the vegetables in the field are ripe, I will continue to add other vegetables.”

The two of them did their own thing, and Xiao Doumi yelled twice from time to time, lying on Shen Jiyao's back and playing with the little puppet that Shen Jiyao folded for him with a cloth towel. Looking at Lan Qianjue from his back, he was neither loud nor noisy, his appearance was so cute that even Lan Qianjue couldn't help sneaking in to kiss him when he saw it.
The two have been making ingredients in the kitchen, and the people outside are also very busy, cleaning and tidying up the table. The vegetables that should be washed, the dishes that should be washed, the division of labor is very clear, and Wang Yueer is in charge of taking care of it. At the counter and welcoming the guests who came in, she was busy arranging the menu. Zhou Laosan and others entered the restaurant. A group of people looked at the restaurant and couldn't help sighing, saying with emotion: "This restaurant is so grand, it's so impressive. There are two floors."
Wang Dazhuang was amazed, and said in a daze: "Brother Shen and the others have finally come out."
Zhang Quanwang was relatively calm, and he took it for granted: "With their ability, it will happen sooner or later."
Several people nodded in approval, Wang Yue'er hurriedly put away the menu, walked around the counter to greet them, and said, "Brother Zhou, Sister-in-law Zhou, you are here to find Big Brother Shen and the others. They are busy in the kitchen right now. Sit down first, I'll call them."
Mrs. Zhou took Xiaobao by the hand and said, "Don't bother you, we'll go and see by ourselves, Miss Yue'er, just show us where the kitchen is."
Wang Yueer hurriedly pointed to the kitchen and said, "That's it."
Mrs. Zhou thanked her, and they went to the kitchen.
The two of them were already busy at the moment, and they were waiting for Xu Rong and the others to buy pork liver and cut it up for preparation. They didn't know if they could still buy pork liver at this time. If they couldn't buy it, they couldn't fry pork liver at night. It's a waste of time, I hope it won't have too much impact on the business.
"Ahh." Xiao Doumi saw Zhang Tianci who was being hugged by Zhang Quanwang outside the kitchen door, and excitedly grabbed the puppet and yelled twice.
Shen Jiyao turned his head as if feeling something, and saw a group of people smiling and looking at him outside the kitchen, Shen Jiyao couldn't help raising his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you are here, first find a place to sit, We're pretty busy here too, and we'll come when it's done."
When Lan Qianjue heard this, she stopped what she was doing and looked at the people. Mrs. Zhou smiled and said, "It's okay, you are busy with your work, don't worry about us, your restaurant is really good."
Shen Jiyao smiled and said, "It's okay, but the location is a bit off."
Brother Zhou said: "What are you afraid of? The food you cook is so delicious that many people come to eat it. That's all right. You guys do your work first. Let's take a look around."
Shen Jiyao nodded, and they left the kitchen and walked to the second floor.
After a while, Xu Rong and the others finally bought the ingredients and came back. The three of them made meat, pork liver and other things together, while the Li family brothers and the Zhao family brothers went to the backyard to kill chickens.
At the beginning of the Youshi period, everyone had finally prepared the ingredients. Shen Jiyao and Lan Qianjue had just sat down and chatted with the sisters-in-law Zhou, when some diners entered the restaurant, and several groups of people came in a row. There were three tables sitting at once, and the elder sister Zhang Yong and Li Erquan hurriedly took the menus to order for the three tables.
Sister-in-law Zhou and the others were more excited than Shen Jiyao and others when they saw the business. They all stood up and walked around in place, fidgeting and restless. Let’s rest for a while, Qian Jue and I will go to cook first.”
"All right, all of you, hurry up." Mrs. Zhou said, "Don't neglect the guests."
Lan Qianjue just wanted to say hello to Brother Zhou and the others, but Brother Zhou said, "Go quickly, business is important."
Lan Qianjue nodded, but Shen Jiyao didn't leave. He looked at Mrs. Zhou with some embarrassment in his arms and said, "Sister-in-law Zhou, can I trouble you to bring me some Doudou first, the cooking inside is a bit choking."
Aunt Zhou was about to reach out to pick up Xiao Doumi with all her promises, but Shen Jiyao was about to hand him over, but the next moment Xiao Doumi clung to Shen Jiyao's clothes, her face wrinkled, and she was about to cry.
Shen Jiyao hurriedly carried him back into his arms, kissed his head, and said, "Doudou, it's very choking inside. You and auntie stay here and wait for me. I'll come to you when I'm done. It's in there." Shen Jiyao said and pointed to the kitchen room, Xiaodoumi looked at Shen Jiyao with aggrieved eyes, but didn't cry.
Seeing that his mood was still stable, Shen Jiyao tentatively handed Xiaodoumi over. This time, Mrs. Zhou hugged her in her arms smoothly. Shen Jiyao raised his hand to touch Xiaodoumi, who had been pinching her small mouth, and said: "Daddy and daddy are right there. If you miss us, please ask auntie to bring you here."
"Ah." Xiao Doumi reached out to grab Shen Jiyao's hand, and Shen Jiyao held his little hand. He couldn't laugh or cry. This little thing is really clingy, and he was probably scared too badly. Lan Qianjue came over He touched Xiaodoumi's head and said, "Wait obediently, we will be here in a while."
Mrs. Zhou also just heard Shen Jiyao say that Xiao Doumi was scared by a word. His pitiful behavior made Mrs. Zhou feel distressed, so she patted him on the back and said, "Our Xiao Doumi is like a big kid, so we can't help it." This will make your two fathers cling to nothing, be good, your father and the others like good children, Xiao Doumi is so good, they are too late to love you, how could they not want you, be good, let your father and the others go Get busy."
Wang Dazhuang also said: "Isn't it, Xiao Doumi is obedient, let your father and the others go to work for a while, so that they can earn money to buy you delicious food."
If you want to say that Xiao Doumi is really smart, as soon as he said these few words, Shen Jiyao suddenly felt that Xiao Doumi's grip on his fingers became looser. Brother Xiaobao, God gave him to play and be obedient."
Seeing his son's sensible appearance, Lan Qianjue couldn't help but smile. Zhang Yong, who had already ordered the dishes, walked over and said, "Brother Shen, the dishes are ready, shall I put them in the kitchen for you?"
"Give it to me, you go and pour some water for the guests." Shen Jiyao took the menu and entered the kitchen with Lan Qianjue.
Xu Rong had already consciously raised the fire, arranged the seasonings for cooking, and just waited for them to cook.
The few of them got along very well, and after a whole morning's running-in, they cooperated very well now. Xu Rong was in charge of serving Shen Jiyao's dishes, and Lan Qianjue was cooking soup on another stove. If they couldn't meet fried chicken or rabbits, they could The frying was very fast, but now Shen Jiyao has come up with a trick. If someone stir-fries chicken, let Xu Rong fry it first and then let him fry it. This will not only save time, but also allow Xu Rong to exercise.
In just a quarter of an hour, the five dishes on the first table were all fried.
Zhang Yong and Wang Bao'er started to serve the guests, while Zhao Gou'er went to cook with a small wooden bucket.
The restaurant gradually became lively, and when it was time for dinner, the business was even better at night than at noon, and several people began to work non-stop. During this period, four or five tables came to eat spicy chicken. Best of all, the chopping of the chicken also fell on his head, and the stir-fry was handed over to Xu Rong, while Shen Jiyao would stir-fry the vegetables for the other tables first. Xu Rong was finally able to touch the stove, not to mention how happy he was.
More and more people came to eat, and a group of people were so busy that even Brother Zhou and the others started to help serve the dishes, but no one complained, the restaurant was full, and there were even people queuing outside. People in the shops on this street were dumbfounded by this scene. You know, this street has never been so lively.
During this period, Mrs. Zhou came to see Shen Jiyao and the others with Xiaodoumi in her arms, and then took Tianci Xiaobao to stay outside the kitchen. There were too many people and they had no place to sit.
Everyone was busy until the beginning of Haishi, and finally there were no diners coming again. Shen Jiyao fried all the dishes that everyone ate, and fried two chickens to entertain Brother Zhou and the others. After all the dishes were fried, he poured them all in Mix them together in a larger iron pot, and plan to make a hodgepodge to eat.
After preparing all these, several people left the kitchen, planning to eat when there were fewer people.
The restaurant was noisy, full of the smell of vegetables and wine. Xu Rong came out to help when he was busy. He didn't have the slightest intention of not helping because he had already divided the work. Shen Jiyao and Lan Qianjue came out of the kitchen one after the other. Xiao Doumi, who was waiting outside the kitchen, yelled twice and raised his little hands to let Shen Jiyao hug him. Shen Jiyao smelled of oily smoke all over his body, so he reached out to shake Xiao Doumi's hand and said: " Doudou wait a while, Daddy goes to wash his face before hugging."
Xiao Doumi pursed her mouth in disappointment, then looked at Lan Qianjue, and stretched out her short hands to hug her. Lan Qianjue was not so particular, and took Xiao Doumi directly, hugged her in her arms and kissed her twice. Disappointed, he laughed happily, jumping up and down in Lan Qianjue's arms.
Mrs. Zhou said with a smile, "This little thing is really smart."
Lan Qianjue looked at Xiao Doomi with a doting smile and said, "It's similar to Ji Yao, very smart."
As soon as the topic turned to Shen Jiyao, Mrs. Zhou had a lot to say, she said: "Isn't it? You are so smart and capable, and it's thanks to you that you didn't let him down. It's not easy for the two of you to get to this point, but you have to treat him well." That's right, for this family, he has worked hard enough, I just saw that he is the only one in charge, how hard it is."
Lan Qianjue looked at the happy customers in the store and said, "I know it's not easy for him, so sister-in-law don't worry, I will treat him and Doumi well."
"That's good." Sister-in-law Zhou saw Brother Zhou clumsily drinking in the corner, so she said, "I'll help Brother Zhou, you guys take a break."
Lan Qianjue was also polite: "I'm sorry, sister-in-law."
"Hi, you're welcome." Sister-in-law Zhou said, and went to help Brother Zhou get some wine.
Lan Qianjue held Xiao Doumi and stood there for a while, Shen Jiyao washed his face and came out, Xiao Doumi was impatient to rush into his father's arms, Shen Jiyao smiled and hugged Xiao Doumi and kissed her, watching After looking at the full restaurant, he said to Lan Qianjue, "Let's go to Yueer's to see how much money was sold today?"
Lan Qianjue hummed, and walked to the cashier with Shen Jiyao.
Wang Yue'er has been burying her head in checking the menu, calculating accounts, and summing up. She is also very busy. Fortunately, the method Shen Jiyao taught her is very simple and easy to understand, otherwise she probably wouldn't be able to do this. Xiaodoumi picked up a menu and looked at it for a while, and saw that the prices and totals of the dishes were correct, so she said, "Did you add the wine?"
Wang Yue'er glanced at the list in Shen Jiyao's hand, and said, "I've added it all, as long as Zhang Yong and the others tell me, I will write it on it."
Shen Jiyao looked at the other lists, and saw that some of the lists included four or five refills of wine. Then he nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's a good job, thanks for your hard work."
Wang Yue'er was praised and was in a good mood, so she pursed her lips and smiled.
Shen Jiyao picked up the other bills in one hand, and said, "Show me all the bills sold today, and I'll sum up the approximate amount of money sold."
Wang Yueer saw that his arm holding Xiaodoumi was trembling, she thought that she must be very tired after cooking all day, so she hurriedly got up and asked him to sit down, and handed him all the orders for today.
Shen Jiyao sat on the chair, carried Xiao Doumi on his lap, took the order and roughly calculated it, and was shocked by the total amount.
Lan Qianjue, who was on the side, was paying attention to Shen Jiyao's expression all the time, so he took his surprised look into his eyes and asked, "What?"
Shen Jiyao raised his head and said solemnly, "Guess how much silver we sold today."
Lan Qianjue thought to himself that there should be quite a lot, otherwise he wouldn't be able to look like this, so he smiled and said, "Tell me about it."
Shen Jiyao smiled and whispered joyfully, "About 100 taels!"
Lan Qianjue couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard this, and said in surprise, "There are so many?"
"Yes." Shen Jiyao said, "But this is within my budget. Today, I sold more than a dozen fried chickens, six braised rabbits, and almost all the other fried meat dishes. Let's talk about the ones we prepared. The ingredients are all used up, if you don’t sell so much, you won’t make much money.”
Lan Qianjue frowned and asked, "How much did you spend on the ingredients?"
Shen Jiyao said solemnly: "Let's not count which one, first calculate how much we spent to open this restaurant and then see if it makes money. Before we opened this restaurant, we had 670 taels and 350 taels. It took about 300 taels of silver before and after, plus it cost about 35 taels to buy things and wine today. If we can sell today’s amount in a day, then we can earn back the capital in a few days. The money spent to buy vegetables can be simply counted, and it will be clear at a glance how much you earn at night."
Lan Qianjue understood it as soon as he heard it, so he said: "After a few days, you can start to make money. If every day is like today, five or sixty taels a day will not be a problem."
Wang Yue'er on the side was stunned, this restaurant is so profitable, it is more than ten times that of the snack bar!
Shen Jiyao smiled and said: "That's natural. It's because we have few dishes and tricks. When you know how to cook in the future, I plan to try pastries. I can use them to sell them in restaurants by the way. It is estimated that it can also attract a group of people to eat in the restaurant, of course, my tricks are more than that, to ensure that I can make some delicious food to attract customers every time slot."
Lan Qianjue smiled and said, "You have a lot of ideas, just make up your own mind."
Shen Jiyao hummed, hugged Xiaodoumi and kissed her happily twice.
