There are not many snack vendors on the beach at the entrance of the village. There are a few seafood stalls and two small supermarkets.
There are also barbecue stalls in summer, but they are not open during the day.
"Changed the pot?"
Li Zhi looked at the two large iron basins placed on the shelf. One had a red inside, and the other had a white inside. Both exuded a strong fragrance.
"Yesterday, I made a thick soup using fish, chicken bones and big pig bones, and simmered it on low heat all night." Dong Xiaorou nodded. The day before yesterday, a customer said that the fish meatballs were not spicy enough, so this time I cooked it with red oil.
, put a lot of chili pepper, it will definitely have enough flavor.
"It smells delicious. It happens that I haven't eaten much for breakfast!" Li Zhi said, putting a lot of fish meatballs in each of the two basins. The fish meatballs produced in the factory are all made from pure fresh fish, so they are not afraid of time.
If you cook it longer, for an hour or so, it may be more delicious.
Fish and meatballs cost five yuan a piece, which is neither cheap nor unacceptable. Dong Xiaorou made a big playing card out of a cardboard shell. When it was erected, it was half a person's height. It cost five yuan for one piece and two for ten yuan.
Sixty per pound. The writing is very clear and the price is clearly marked. This saves tourists from coming over and always asking about the price.
"Many people have asked us whether we have water for sale here. How about we bring some water and drinks with us." After receiving this group of guests, Dong Xiaorou said to Li Zhi.
Because the fish meatballs have a strong taste and are even spicier in the red oil pot, many people inevitably feel thirsty after eating and need to drink water.
Five out of ten people who come to play will spend money to try something new. If they think it tastes good, they will buy more. If they think it doesn’t taste good, they will turn around and leave.
Therefore, the stall selling fish and meat balls has many repeat customers.
Li Zhi thought for a while, shook his head and said with a smile: "If they want to drink water, let them go to the small supermarket nearby to buy it. It's not too far away!"
Heizi brought all the freezers in the factory and sold some water or drinks. It didn't take much trouble and it wasn't impossible. However, Li Zhi didn't want to sell because there were several small shops and small supermarkets nearby.
There is water and drinks for sale. If the stall set up by Li Zhi only sells boiled fish balls, it will not compete with the two small supermarkets and there will be no conflict.
But if Li Zhi and others also sell water, will the villagers be happy if they can open a small supermarket?
Li Zhi was not afraid of them. After all, he was just trying to make a living in the village. Selling some water by the way would not necessarily make much money.
Why don't you find happiness and be angry about it?
Listening to Li Zhi shaking his head in rejection, Dong Xiaorou didn't say anything. She was an understanding person. Although Li Zhi didn't say some words, it didn't prevent her from hearing them.
It wasn't until after nine o'clock in the evening, when there was no one on the beach at the entrance of the village, that Dong Xiaorou called Heizi and asked him to drive over and close the stall.
There were also a lot of fish balls sold today. Because there was a freezer, there were enough fish balls. Some tourists also bought some raw fish balls and planned to cook them at home.
"Don't be too happy too early. These two days are due to holidays. I'm afraid business will not be as good tomorrow!" Dong Xiaorou reminded Li Zhi.
It's not the peak tourist season yet, and students in schools haven't had holidays yet, so unless it's weekends and holidays, there won't be many people coming to the village to play.
"Boss, why don't we make a food truck? If we often set up a stall at the beach, it would be inconvenient to move it back and forth when it's windy or rainy, and it doesn't feel too hygienic."
After returning to the factory, Kuroko suggested while carrying things down from the car.
Li Zhi smiled and nodded, looked at Heizi and asked, "Have you found a girlfriend?"
"What do you want to do?" Dong Xiaorou interjected and asked before Heizi could speak.
"Hey, what can I do? I'm thinking about setting up a stall on the beach at the entrance of the village. It can be considered a good small business. After a while, when the tourist season arrives, there will be more passengers and I will make a lot of money at the end of the day. Instead of
We go to the village entrance every day and keep an eye on it, so why not hire someone to do this? It’s just a matter of selling boiled fish balls. You have money and goods, and you can do it if you have the skills."
When Li Zhi said this, he looked at Heizi and said: "If Heizi's girlfriend is also from nearby, then let Heizi's girlfriend do this. We will sell the fish and meat balls produced in the factory to her at a purchased price, and let Heizi
My son and his girlfriend can make some hard-earned money."
Dong Xiaorou glanced at Li Zhi and turned around to do something without saying anything.
The first reason why Dong Xiaorou or her family members are not allowed to do this is that Li Zhi feels that this is just a small business and cannot make a lot of money. The other reason is that Li Zhi does not want to involve Dong Xiaorou's family members.
If Dong Xiaorou’s family members really come here every day, what would happen? It would be very inconvenient, right?
Li Zhi definitely had good intentions. He did not say that he was spending money to hire a worker, but that he wanted to let go of the small business of setting up a stall on the beach at the entrance of the village.
I estimate that during the peak tourist season, just from the price difference, you can earn thousands of dollars a day. Heizi is Dong Xiaorou's junior brother, and Li Zhi is also pleased with this kid. The wealth will not go to outsiders!
"What are you giggling about? Are you there?" Li Zhi asked Heizi.
Heizi scratched his head, smiled innocently, and muttered in a low voice: "Not yet!"
Li Zhi was stunned and looked at him with some surprise. You said you don't have a girlfriend, so why are you blushing?
Dong Xiaorou said with a smile: "I don't have a girlfriend, but I have a 'good friend' who is my childhood sweetheart in the village!"
"Good friends from childhood sweethearts?" Li Zhi was amused, and he was also very clear about it. He smiled at Heizi and said: "You are also good friends from childhood sweethearts. They are right at the door of your house, right under your nose. You are so tired that you can't be tired. I guess it is a bit hard.
If it doesn’t work, just go back and discuss it with them. If you want to do it, then do it. If you don’t like it, we won’t force you!”
"Okay!" Heizi nodded in agreement.
After Heizi finished unloading the car, Li Zhi waved his hand and chased people away: "Okay, it's none of your business. Go home and eat!"
Heizi responded. He had just mentioned it to Li Zhi, but he was worried that it would be over soon. Who wouldn't want to show off in front of his childhood sweetheart, his 'good friend'!
"Thank you!" Dong Xiaorou waited for Heizi to leave and then thanked Li Zhi softly.
Li Zhi chuckled and said, "Why are you thanking me? I didn't let you or your family or friends do this. Just don't blame me!"
Dong Xiaorou shook his head and muttered softly: "They can't do it. It's better to leave this matter to Heizi than to me!"
As for why, Dong Xiaorou didn't say.
It was already nine o'clock in the evening, and Li Zhi did not let Dong Xiaorou leave. The two of them made two dishes using fish meatballs processed from large yellow croaker. There were several boxes of beer. Dong Xiaorou asked Heizi to drive and buy it from the small shop at the entrance of the village last night.
.
"Aren't you going to tell me about your family situation?" The two of them sat opposite each other on the pony. Li Zhi picked up a fried fish ball with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. His mouth was full of delicious taste, bouncy and slippery.
It is a kind of enjoyment when chewing and eating.
Dong Xiaorou lowered her head to avoid Li Zhi's eyes and said: "Knowing too much will not do you any good."
