Lu Xiang transmigrated into the 1980s as a cannon fodder supporting female character. In the book, her scummy grandma, coveting a bride price, made her impersonate the female lead to get married. W...
Chapter 216 Big Sale
On the first day, Lu Xiang prepared only 100 servings of spicy hot pot, but sold over 20 in the morning.
It sold out in a short time that evening, and I said to those waiting in line behind me embarrassedly: "Come back tomorrow! There are no more."
Those who arrived late wanted to eat it as soon as they smelled the food. When they saw the people eating in the restaurant, who were sweating profusely, they became even more greedy.
Unexpectedly, they arrived late and hadn't eaten yet, so they immediately reminded Lu Xiang: "You must make more tomorrow!" Lu Xiang said: "Okay." They didn't make that much on the first day of opening.
The dishes were cooked very quickly, and some people took some home to eat when they saw that there was no room for everyone to finish them.
After everyone in the store finished eating, the three aunts cleaned the place briefly and washed the dishes.
It's time to go to work tomorrow. Lu Xiang was the last one to leave. She turned off the lights, reached out and picked up Xi Nian. The little guy stayed here obediently for the whole day.
Lu Xiang hugged the little guy and kissed the side of his face. The little guy hugged his mother's neck tightly with his short hands.
Lu Xiang said apologetically, "Are you tired, Xi Nian? Is it fun to stay here?"
The little guy nodded and said, "It's fun." He was so proud to see everyone eating.
His little chest puffed up: "My mother's cooking is the best."
Lu Xiang had no time to take care of him because of work, so she could only keep the child in front of her eyes, not daring to miss a single glance.
Lu Xiang: "How about going to work with Dad tomorrow?"
Xiao Xi Nian said in a baby voice: "No, I want to go to work with my mother. I like my mother."
Lu Xiang was amused by the child's past words and went home with the child.
After arriving home, I cooked for the children first. The two of them ate first, and Fu Qinhui saved the food for him to eat in the evening.
Lu Xiang played with her son. The little guy had been well behaved all day, but now he was running wild.
The two were playing blind man's game in the yard. Lu Xiang blindfolded herself with a cloth and looked for her son.
Then she heard the little guy running and laughing. Lu Xiang grabbed her son with both hands and just as she caught him, she heard him scream. Lu Xiang loosened her grip and let go of the little guy.
As she continued to grab, Lu Xiang felt someone beside her. She hugged him hard and found a warm embrace.
Lu Xiang immediately took off the blindfold and said, "I caught him!" It turned out to be Fu Qinhui. Fu Qinhui was wearing a suit, holding Lu Xiang's waist with both hands, with a smile in his eyes: "How naughty."
Lu Xiang blushed and asked, "Why are you back so early?"
Recently he has been busy until after nine o'clock in the evening. The factory has to establish some new rules and regulations and hold frequent meetings.
Fu Qinhui said, "Now that you're done, how have you been recently? Did the opening go smoothly today?"
Lu Xiang said, “I bought a hundred bowls!”
I didn’t expect so many people to show up on the first day. Some of them were old customers who still remembered me after so many years. It was a great feeling.
Fu Qinhui said, "How amazing, how capable!" His tone sounded as if he was coaxing someone from the past.
Fu Qinhui saw his son running towards him and looked at him eagerly.
Then he put the briefcase aside and said, "Let's play Eagle Catches Chicken!" Fu Qinhui played the eagle. Xiao Xinian grabbed his mother's clothes. Lu Xiang played Fu Qinhui.
The three of them played together in the yard. The little one had never played with his parents before, so he was nervous and excited, and laughed happily.
Seeing their son so happy, the couple played with him for a while longer and ran for more than 20 minutes. Fu Qinhui pretended to be exhausted and let them go.
I used to be particularly happy, jumping around like a lively little rabbit.
Lu Xiang said, "Okay, let's wash up and go back to the house."
Xiao Xi Nian was still not satisfied: "I want to play again tomorrow."
Lu Xiang said, "That depends on whether you are a good kid. If you are, mom and dad will help play with you!"
Xiao Xi Nian immediately stated: "I am the best behaved one."
Lu Xiang was touched by her son's cuteness and kissed his soft jelly-like cheek again.
Lu Xiang slept with the little guy and told him lovely fairy tales.
At first the little one listened with eyes wide open, but since he had been out all day and hadn't taken a nap, he soon fell into deep sleep.
Seeing that Xi Nian had fallen asleep, Lu Xiang gently kissed the child's cheek, then covered him with a small quilt and quietly left the room.
When I returned to the house, Fu Qinhui had already finished his meal.
There were only two people in the room. Fu Qinhui said, "Is it too hard? How about we send a few more people to help you?"
Lu Xiang smiled and said, "No, I'm already extravagant enough." The small shop employed three aunties, and thanks to these three aunties, she was no longer needed to blanch the dishes.
The three aunts all had active eyes. Some were blanching the dishes, some were clearing the table, and some were washing the dishes in the back.
Lu Xiang was collecting money in the back.
Don’t underestimate selling spicy hot pot. You can make fifty cents from selling a bowl, so today you’ll make a net profit of fifty.
Ten days means five hundred yuan, and one thousand five hundred yuan a month. After deducting the salary for aunt, there is still one thousand four hundred yuan left a month. This is still conservative. Lu Xiang plans to increase the sales tomorrow.
So that some guests who come for her won’t be able to eat.
Lu Xiang did not underestimate the power of Malatang at all, which became very popular in later generations.
In the 1980s, the taste was monotonous, and suddenly eating spicy hot pot was like an explosion of taste buds for them, it was so stimulating.
She plans to make more tomorrow, maybe two hundred bowls at most.
Fu Qinhui felt very happy just when Lu Xiang talked about opening a store.
Fu Qinhui said: "I plan to invest in another factory!"
Lu Xiang was suddenly attracted by Fu Qinhui's words: "Ah?"
Fu Qinhui said: "Recently, some factories have been struggling and are about to close down, and they're looking for takeovers. There's a bakery that I think is okay."
The reason why the bakery went bankrupt was that it had no distribution channels. Now that their duck neck business has grown to this scale, distributors in various provinces know them, and this is their biggest resource.
Of course, he didn't forget to bring Fatty along for the inspection! They could make money together. Now that the duck neck factory was gradually becoming more formal, he had some energy to do other things.
"I might lose money, but I still want to give it a try." Fu Qinhui's ambition was completely aroused. The fat man, by contrast, was conservative and rejected his suggestion.
Lu Xiang said: "It doesn't matter, if you want to lose, I will support you."
Lu Xiang spoke with such passion that Fu Qinhui felt warmed in his heart. "Okay! Then what should I give as a reward?"
After saying this, he began to kiss Lu Xiang.
The cheeks that were kissed by Lu Xiang turned even redder: "Don't mess around." But her tone was a little weak.
Fu Qinhui smiled happily, but if his subordinates saw this, they would definitely be horrified.
Who would have thought that such a cold-hearted person like Fu Qinhui could smile so gently.
