The most fearful thing about doing business is not opening. As long as it is open, a virtuous cycle can often be formed. This is what happened to Tongdao Xu's stall tonight. After all three tables in his stall were full, his business here has continued one after another.
It has never been interrupted.
Until all the ingredients he prepared today were sold out.
When it was sold out, it was still early. He looked at the time on his watch and saw that it was only around 9:00.
The business of the three barbecue stalls nearby is still going on, but he can't continue here.
Everything is sold out, what can you still sell?
As the last portion of roasted green peppers was served to the guests by Xu Tonglin, Xu Tongdao looked at the time, then looked at the business of other nearby stalls, and smiled to himself.
He originally thought that the ingredients he prepared today might not be sold out, and he was even worried that he might not be able to open the restaurant tonight. He never expected that business would suddenly pick up after his first roasted eggplant became fragrant.
Logically speaking, it is normal for those who make late-night snacks and sell barbecue to stay open until one or two o'clock at night. It is indeed a bit too early to close the stall now.
But what else can be done?
You can't go over and tell other barbecue stalls: "Hey, you can't sell out all your stuff anyway, why don't you sell me some ingredients?"
He estimated that if he really asked, people would probably fall out with him.
"Xiaodao, we've sold out everything. Should we close the stall?"
After serving the dishes to the guests, Xu Tonglin returned to Xu Tongdao and asked in a low voice.
Comrade Xu nodded and said, "Take it away! Put away what you can, and then we will go back after all the guests have eaten!"
Xu Tonglin: "Hey, good!"
…
About half an hour later, when Tongdao Xu and the others were pushing the tricycle away, the bald man at the stall next to him finally showed a smile, and he suddenly felt much more comfortable.
The fat man and the long-haired man not far away also subconsciously looked at the backs of Comrade Xu and the others.
Tonight was quite embarrassing for the three men.
The customers at my stall always ordered the grilled eggplant from the guy's stall, and later some even went over to order mutton skewers, which was a slap in their face.
Especially when the three of them heard the customers saying that the boy's baked goods were delicious, they felt even more worried.
"Oh, they finally left. Brother, you've also tasted the grilled eggplant. Are you sure you can get that flavor out of the grill?"
The girl walked up to the long-haired man, sighed in a low voice, and asked a question casually.
The long-haired man frowned when he heard this, glanced at her, and replied in a low voice: "It's hard to say. I'll have to try it a few times to see."
When the girl heard this, her expression was not surprised. She nodded and said, "Yes! I didn't expect eggplant to be so fragrant and delicious when baked. I'm afraid it won't be easy for us to make it taste similar to other people's."
The long-haired man was silent.
…
In a rental house.
Xu Tongdao and Xu Tonglin, who had just come back and had just washed all the things that needed to be washed, were sitting on the edge of the bed a little tired.
At this time, psychologically, Comrade Xu, who had been addicted to smoking before his rebirth, actually wanted to smoke a cigarette to relieve his fatigue.
But he endured it.
Not to mention that he is only in the body of a 17-year-old now, but that he has been reborn and physically has no craving for cigarettes. It would be a pity not to take this opportunity to quit smoking.
"Xiaodao, how much did we sell in total tonight? Have you counted it?"
Xu Tonglin moved his shoulders and turned his head to ask.
Comrade Xu shook his head slightly, "No, how can I have the time!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Xu Tonglin's mouth, "Yes! I didn't expect that when we came to the county for our first stall, the business was so good! It seems that our business can last for a long time! Why don't you count the money now?
Let’s see how much money we sold tonight?”
"OK!"
Comrade Xu responded with some expectation in his heart.
He stood up, opened the plastic bag containing the money, poured it all on the bed, and asked Xu Tonglin to count the money together.
There were no large-denomination banknotes, they were all small change, and the largest denomination was only fifty.
It didn't take long for the two of them to order together. Soon the two of them put together the money they had ordered...
"186 yuan? That's a lot?"
Xu Tonglin was so surprised that his expression was a little dull.
Almost can't believe it.
Tongdao Xu's performance was not as exaggerated as him. First of all... the 186 yuan he spent before his rebirth could not buy much. Maybe if he went out for a meal and ordered two more dishes, it would be more than this price.
Secondly, before he was reborn, he was already on the verge of reaching the fourth grade, so his mentality was much more stable.
Three... When all the money in the bag was poured out on the bed, he visually estimated that it was around two hundred yuan, and now the specific amount counted was within the range of his visual estimation. What's so surprising?
"By the way! Xiaodao, how much did we cost tonight? How much money did we make approximately? Net profit! What is the approximate net profit?"
Xu Tonglin suddenly asked Xu Tongdao a series of questions.
Xu Tongdao smiled, "The cost is difficult to calculate. Lamb, kidneys, sheep eggs... plus those vegetarian dishes... the cost is about thirty yuan, and the cost of two boxes of beer, as well as charcoal, garlic, soybean oil
Waiting for the cost of those seasonings, we probably earned just over a hundred!"
Xu Tonglin was listening attentively, but Xu Tongdao's last words seemed to irritate him, "Isn't more than a hundred dollars too little? My dad only earns 15 to 20 yuan a day after hard work. You are not satisfied with more than a hundred dollars?"
Why don't you look at what time it is now? If we didn't have enough goods tonight, we could still make a lot more! Xiaodao, are you a little too ambitious?"
Comrade Xu smiled and did not argue with him.
Because what Xu Tonglin said is indeed reasonable.
In this day and age, it is indeed rare to earn more than a hundred dollars in half a night.
Especially for ordinary people like them.
"Hey, based on this earning rate, if we can earn two hundred a night, then if we calculate it as 30 days a month, we can earn... 6,000 a month? So much? This is too much, right?
?”
Xu Tonglin tilted his head and calculated, and was suddenly surprised.
Xu Tongdao ignored his surprise, lowered his head and sorted all the banknotes one by one. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "You are wrong in your calculation. After those three stalls start selling grilled eggplant, no matter what
How does their roasted eggplant taste? As long as they sell it cheaper than us, the price of our roasted eggplants will probably drop accordingly, and then our profits will not be so high."
"Even so, we will still earn a lot!"
Xu Tonglin is easily satisfied.
Tongdao Xu smiled, suddenly stopped sorting out the money in his hand, and turned to discuss with Xu Tonglin, "By the way, Lin Zi! As the saying goes, brothers settle accounts. Since we are doing this business together, we should discuss how to divide the money earned as soon as possible.
Just give it a try! Don’t make us jealous because of money in the future, that’s not good! What do you think?”
