Lying on the bed, Zhao Ling'er calculated her expenses: she made a total of 75 Wen today, 10 Wen was given to Wu's mother, 15 Wen was spent on clothes, 10 Wen was spent on booking a room, 7 Wen was spent on dinner, and by the way, she also bought
A pair of shoes cost 2 cents, total cost was 44 cents, and 31 cents were left.
Almost exactly the same as a piece of cloth.
"If this continues, even though I will have an income every day, when will I be able to wear the clothes I want to wear, eat the food I want to eat, and live in my own big house?" Zhao Linger couldn't help but doze off after thinking about it.
Entered dreamland.
"Crack!" Zhao Ling'er was awakened by a crisp sound.
Looking left and right, it turned out to be a small bell.
It hung at the end of a plate of incense. When the incense burned out, the rope hanging the small bell was burned and the little bell fell off on its own.
It turns out this is an ancient alarm clock!
Zhao Ling'er secretly gave a thumbs up, the ancients still had wisdom!
Zhao Linger got up, quickly washed her face, and quietly came downstairs.
Most people haven't gotten up yet.
The spicy soup and fried dough sticks have been delivered just like yesterday.
Zhao Ling'er wiped all the bowls and stacked them on the table. This time she served herself a bowl first and drank it quietly.
Not to mention, the spicy spicy soup tastes really good. Unfortunately, the original stall owner set up his stall in the suburbs, and not many people passed by at the end of the day. If his craft was in the city center, it wouldn't be a problem to open several branches a year.
"Little girl, you got up very early!"
Zhao Ling'er looked back and saw that it was the front desk clerk from yesterday.
"Good morning! You got up quite early too."
"I can't tell, you little girl is pretty good at business. You made 75 yuan in the first day you came here. If you work for 10 days, it's equivalent to one month's wages for me."
"Haha." Zhao Ling'er laughed: "How about you come and try the spicy spicy soup?"
"Hot spicy soup! It's definitely not as delicious as Zhang Sanyuan's." The waiter sat down lazily and picked up a bowl.
"Zhang Sanyuan?"
"You don't know? Zhang Sanyuan is the founder of Yunzhou's most famous Hu spicy soup restaurant. It has been passed down to the third generation now. His grandson Zhang Yunjingguang has opened five branches in Yunzhou. He wants to eat every morning.
Diners have to queue up!”
"Is it so delicious? I'll try it when I'm free."
"No problem! When I rest, my brother will take you there!"
"Tch, how old are you when you call yourself brother?" She completely forgot that she was just a little girl who looked only eight or nine years old.
"Brother Zhouyou, I am already 17 this year! One more year!" The man stretched out his index finger and stared at Zhao Ling'er with high spirits: "One more year, and I will marry you a beautiful sister-in-law!"
"Ha!" Zhao Ling'er laughed out loud: "Why another year?"
Zhou You scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "Wan'er's mother said that she would let Wan'er marry me when I collect 50 taels of silver. In another year, if I save another 12 months' wages, I guess I can get it by then.
I’ve collected 50 taels.”
"How many taels of silver do you have now?" Zhao Ling'er asked.
"Ten, fifteen taels." Zhou You sat down and slowly stirred the spoon.
"No problem!" Zhao Ling'er patted Zhou You on the shoulder: "Fifty taels, I believe we can get it together soon."
"Hmph! You think money is easy to make! I have been frugal in the past two years, plus running errands for others and not buying clothes or snacks. I have only saved fifteen taels in total. If I want to make up for fifty taels next year
, I have to find another job!"
An idea flashed through Zhao Ling'er's mind, but it seemed a little inappropriate. Forget it, let's think about it again.
Zhao Ling'er comforted him with some kind words and then started busy with the work at hand.
Yesterday, I ordered 150 bowls of spicy soup and 350 fried dough sticks from the stall owner selling spicy soup. I wonder if they can all be sold out today!
“Boss, let’s have a bowl of spicy soup!”
The guests came one after another, and there were not enough bowls. Fortunately, Zhou You borrowed some bowls and spoons from the kitchen of the inn to meet the emergency.
Zhao Ling'er was busy running around, and before she knew it, it was almost 10 o'clock, and most of the guests in the inn had left. There were still about 20 bowls left in the pot.
what to do?
It would be a bit troublesome for the stall owner selling spicy soup to take back these dozen bowls, so it would be better to sell them at a reduced price.
Let's order 120 bowls tomorrow. The customer flow here is limited, and not everyone likes to drink spicy soup.
"Come and drink spicy spicy soup! Fresh and hot spicy spicy soup, the soup is rich and delicious, and it costs 4 cents a bowl!" Zhao Ling'er walked to the street and shouted.
Although some people came in after hearing the call, there were only one or two. It seems that price is not the core competitiveness of Hu spicy soup!
Zhang Sanyuan? I’ll go find out after today.
At ten o'clock, the hotel's kitchen staff came to clean up the lobby.
There are still about ten bowls of hot and spicy soup left in the pot. After calculating the balance, I made a total of 121 Wen today, which is much more than yesterday. But the remaining soup is considered a waste. It is better to give it to the busboys in the inn. , which can be regarded as not wasting food.
"Zhou You?" Zhao Ling'er called Zhou You aside: "Do you have time today? How about you take me to Zhang Sanyuan's shop to try the Hu spicy soup?"
Zhou You thought for a while: "No problem! But - the errand fee is 10 yuan! Also, I want to take Wan'er with me, how about the three of us go together?"
"Okay, when will we go?"
"Wait until Wan'er finishes. I'll call you at the door of your room at three o'clock in the afternoon."
Zhao Linger nodded.
If she can cooperate with Zhang Sanyuan's shop, her hot and spicy soup can attract more people to drink. Also, if it can't be sold just here, she will have to find more similar inns to copy the business model.
Thinking of this, Zhao Ling'er took to the streets again.
After buying a map of Yunzhou, Zhao Ling'er discovered that the most prosperous place in Yunzhou was not around Junpeng Inn, but around the Liyun River. However, it was still some distance away from the Liyun River. It was almost time now, so it was better to eat After dinner, let's go on a tour with them.
