I rely on pancakes to become rich [farming]
Chapter 13 Preparations for Opening a Store
The place where the two elders of the Ji family lived was in the alley behind Ji Mingwu's house. Ji Mingwu had the key to his parents' house, so he brought Yan Moji directly into the door.
In his memory, Yan Moji remembered that the original body had never been here.After Yuanchen got married, she was extremely resistant to Ji Mingwu, and she didn't even have a good impression of Ji's old couple, and she didn't even complete the marriage ceremony of offering tea.
It was the first time to step into the house of Ji's old couple, and Yan Moji followed Ji Mingwu in a well-behaved manner, trying to be obedient and reliable——
Not only because he is now Ji Mingwu's daughter-in-law in name, but more importantly, he also invited the two elders to help him as the future manager of the gourmet restaurant.
The Ji family and his wife were quite kind to Yan Moji, obviously they had heard of Yan Moji's change over the past month, and the corners of their eyes were filled with relief and comfort.
Yan Moji could also tell that these two elders were very traditional old parents in the countryside. They had little knowledge, were honest and gentle, and didn't have great expectations for their children and grandchildren. They just wanted a safe and peaceful reunion.
——Almost exactly the same as his parents who died young in his previous life.
Yan Moji met the loving eyes of the two elders, his nose was slightly sore, he rubbed his nose quickly to dispel the sadness that suddenly surged up in him, and started talking about business:
"Father, mother, I discussed with Brother Wu and wanted to open a food shop, but Brother Wu still needs to do carpentry work, and I am too busy to do it by myself. I would like to ask your elder brother to help."
After hearing Yan Moji's request this time, the old couple's somewhat sparse eyebrows frowned.
The old couple looked at each other, and Father Ji said, "Little Ji... It's not that we two old bones don't want to help, but we have to go to the village to collect vegetables every day, so we really don't have time."
Yan Moji hurriedly said: "It's hard and troublesome for parents to go to the village to collect vegetables. Why don't you consider working in the store? Working in the store is also easy, and the wages will not be less than collecting vegetables..."
"It's not about wages." Mother Ji scratched her gray hair lightly with a thick wooden needle in her hand, and said with a smile, "If we really want to help you, how much do we need to pay? It's just that your father and I have spent most of our lives in Doing this job, the villages below only recognize our family, and we don’t want to leave them behind just like that.”
"That's right, those old fellows, some of them entrusted us to send messages to the juniors who work in the town. If we don't do it, who will send them messages?" Father Ji also added.
As soon as these words came out, Yan Moji didn't know how to persuade him.
The old couple of the Ji family obviously didn't just regard their work as a means of making money, but as a part of their lives, a channel to connect with old customers in the villages outside the town.
This made Yan Moji a little ashamed and a little admirable.
Not everyone loves the work they do and the people they meet.
"but……"
Seeing Yan Moji's embarrassed face, Mother Ji smiled again, and changed the subject, "You really should be busy, so let Mingwen help you."
Plain text?who?
Yan Moji looked puzzled, the original owner didn't seem to have this person in his memory?
Ji's father went to the back room, led out a girl who looked like she was only thirteen or fourteen years old, and patted Ji Mingwu on the shoulder: "A while ago, Mingwen went down the river with a group of bastards, and I beat him up." , you have to be careful, and don't tell her to run out and run amok again."
Yan Moji looked at the immature face that was obviously somewhat similar to Ji Mingwu's, and was a little surprised: so his Brother Wu also has a younger sister?
Why haven't you seen him in the month since he was married and in the month since he passed through?
The little girl noticed Yan Moji's eyes, made a face at him, and turned her head away with a "hum".
——Hey, it seems that he still has a lot of opinions on himself.
Yan Moji was a little bit dumbfounded, how could he be willing to use a child of this age as a labor force, and most likely he was in the rebellious period, so he wanted to help the Ji family's old couple look after the child?
However, Ji Mingwu didn't seem to think there was any problem at all, so he nodded and took Ji Mingwen's hand, obviously agreeing.
——Oh, that's fine, let's just look after the children, anyway, I and Brother Wu can't have children, so I have the right to raise a daughter.
Yan Moji comforted himself in the midst of suffering.
Ji Mingwu was not polite to his younger sister at all, and directly arranged for the little girl to inquire about the asking price of the mason in the town.
When Yan Moji and Ji Mingwu returned to their home, Yan Moji looked at Ji Mingwu helplessly: "Brother Wu, are you not worried if you ask a child as young as Mingwen to inquire about a mason?"
Are your children so wild?
Ji Mingwu gave him a strange look: "Mingwen is not young anymore."
Thirteen or fourteen years old, in some families, they are about to get married.
——Well, it really doesn't make sense to you ancient people.
Yan Moji scratched his head, not knowing how to speak.
"And Mingwen is very smart, just use her if you have something to do." Ji Mingwu added, "Don't worry about safety."
Yan Moji was a little surprised - this was the first time he heard Ji Mingwu praise someone. Could it be that his sister-in-law is really smart?
And there's no need to worry about safety... You didn't hire a bodyguard for your sister!
When Ji Mingwen came back after inquiring about the mason, Yan Moji was surprised. His brother Wu really didn't exaggerate.
This little girl Ji Mingwen is indeed very smart.
Not only the location, working time, and price of several masons in the town were clearly inquired, but also their working habits, material requirements and even some black history of cutting corners were also given as a bonus.
Seeing Yan Moji's undisguised surprise, the little girl let out a triumphant "hum", looking at Yan Moji with a somewhat provocative gaze.
Yan Moji discovered earlier that this little girl was inexplicably repulsive and hostile towards him, and now she even showed such a provocative expression towards him...
He raised his eyebrows, squatted down with a smile, raised his head and looked into the little girl's eyes: "Mingwen, let's get to know you formally. My name is Yan Moji. I'm your brother's husband and wife. We will be a family from now on."
The little girl pursed her lips, turned her head away with some repulsion: "Who is your family now!"
Although Yan Moji was single for many years in his previous life, as the manager of a gourmet store, he naturally had to deal with children, and with a few words of sweet pancakes, he got the little girl's words out.
The source of brother Wu's younger sister's hostility towards him was that the original body was bumped into by little girls several times when he was drinking and gambling outside. Children are very pure, and whether they like or dislike depends on the person's external performance.
But according to what the little girl said, besides gambling, the original body seems to be colluding with some dubious people and deliberately losing money to outsiders?
Yan Moji frowned - he didn't see this part in Yuanshen's memory?
Although he intends to repair the relationship with the little girl and confirm the details, there are too many things he needs to worry about now, so let's let it go now that the debt has been paid off.
Yan Moji rewarded Ji Mingwen with a few pancakes and snacks, and then, based on the information Ji Mingwen brought, he went to discuss the decoration with Ji Mingwu.
According to Yan Moji's idea, half of the wall adjacent to the kitchen should be demolished, so that the guests who come to the store can have a clear view of everything in the kitchen.
On the other hand, the kitchen needs to be properly tidied up, not to mention making it as bright and clean as the modern tiled walls, but also looking clean and bright.
Based on Yan Moji's understanding of the world, at least in this small town, back cooking has always been regarded as an unrefined skill, let alone a performance like "showing off" cooking skills.
And Yan Moji would pass by a ramen restaurant when he was in junior high school. After school, he especially liked to watch the ramen chef there make ramen. The way the ramen master kneads the dough and pulls it into strips, and shakes them, has a different charm for some reason.
It is also this obsession with the process of food shaping that made Yan Moji choose to open a gourmet restaurant and live broadcast of food after graduating from university.
After transmigrating to this world, Yan Moji discovered that the pursuit of the art of food processing is actually shared by all people.
Although most of the porters, women, and servants in this town can't read a single word, they still like to watch Yan Moji show off his skills deliberately when spreading pancakes.Yan Moji's stall is so popular, in addition to the excellent taste of his pancakes, the processing process with a bit of performance is also an important factor.
So Yan Moji planned to display the scenes in the kitchen directly in the hall. On the one hand, he could show the cleanliness of the kitchen to the guests, and on the other hand, he used his own cooking skills as a gimmick to attract guests.
Although there is no glass or range hood in this world, according to Yan Moji's idea, from now on, the store will sell things similar to snacks, not for main dishes, and for the time being. An opening in the wall above the stove should suffice.
As for the fire smoke, Yan Moji also has a solution - change the carbon filling port of the stove to the other side of the wall, that is, in the backyard, and then someone will fill the carbon regularly.
This not only prevents the cook from filling the charcoal by himself, but also makes the kitchen less smokey.
Now the first thing to do is to invite a mason to do the wall, and Ji Mingwu's carpentry will be done after the mason.
So Yan Moji hurriedly chose a dutiful and honest mason surnamed Zhao according to the news that the little girl in Mingwen had inquired, and took the money to Zhao mason's house.
The mason usually only takes some small jobs such as repairing walls and tiles. It is rare for a large-scale business such as a shop renovation.
Yan Moji's attention was attracted by the red bowl of water that Zhao Wajiang drank when he entered the door, and he couldn't help asking curiously:
"Uncle Zhao, what are you drinking?"
Wicker Zhao glanced at it while arranging the tools, and said with a smile, "It's just the rusty leaves that my boy picked from the wild outside the town. Because the soaking water is more refreshing, I often soak it for a drink."
When Yan Moji was talking about business with Zhao Wajiang just now, he smelled a faint fresh smell here, which was a bit similar to mint, but milder than mint. Just smelling the smell made him feel refreshed.
So it was the water soaked in the rusty leaves?
Speaking of which, he wants to open a store, and it is true that there are no unique drinks in the store... He is too busy these days, and he hasn't freed up his hands to make drinks yet.
After packing up his things, Zhao Wajiang saw that Yan Moji seemed to be particularly interested in the bowl of red water, so he couldn't help laughing: "Little Lang, the water soaked in rusty leaves is very bitter. If you are interested, Hurry up tomorrow, I'll ask my kid to send you one over there."
Yan Moji was not hypocritical, and nodded straightforwardly: "Then I will trouble you."
In his previous life, he also prepared many kinds of herbal teas, just to try to see if there is any homemade.
In his memory, Yan Moji remembered that the original body had never been here.After Yuanchen got married, she was extremely resistant to Ji Mingwu, and she didn't even have a good impression of Ji's old couple, and she didn't even complete the marriage ceremony of offering tea.
