Reborn and Divorced: I'm Raising My Kids and Lying Low to Get Rich

Opening her eyes, Chen Hong was reborn. She was reborn just before she was about to take her children back to her parents' home. Not wanting to live a life of looking at others' faces for a...

Chapter 160 The house is full of work

Clean the countertop and take out the bluefin tuna that I didn't finish cutting last night.

Carefully cut the tuna into small pieces of different parts, arrange them well, and pack each portion of five pounds into a food storage bag and seal it.

Put ice cubes in a styrofoam box, put the tuna meat in, cover it with another layer of ice cubes, seal the styrofoam box with tape, put it away in the storage space, and take it out again when you go out in the afternoon.

I put the remaining tuna bones and scraps of meat into a plastic bag and took it to the front yard.

"Auntie, at noon, let's stew these tuna bones and scraps of meat, along with the fish head and tail, into a fish soup. We'll make an extra dish for everyone at lunchtime."

Aunt Guo quickly came forward to take it, "Oh dear, such a big fish head and bones, we need to use the largest wood-fired stove to stew it, other pots really can't hold it."

Chen Hong dodged Aunt Guo's hand. These things were not light. Don't be fooled by how easily she carried them; it was because she was strong.

If Aunt Guo were to take it, she might trip and fall, twisting her back, and that would be a real pain for her.

Place the food on the cutting board, and don't bother two cooks at once. The head chefs in the kitchen are Aunt Guo and Aunt Erhu, both of whom are quite old.

Asking them to chop bones is really putting them through a lot.

Chen Hong simply took out her treasured knife and started chopping away, cutting the fish bones, head, and tail into appropriately sized pieces.

That way, you just need to wash them clean and put them directly into the pot. Chen Hong simply washed them for them too, since Aunt Guo had already cleaned the big pot.

Chen Hong helped start the fire, and the mother and daughter immediately began to stew tuna head and tofu soup.

I must say, the quality of this deep-sea fish is really good. In just half an hour, the fish soup in the pot turned milky white.

A delicious aroma of fresh fish wafted through the window into the yard.

It's only 10:30, not yet lunchtime, and the guests are all peeking into the restaurant for a quick look.

Upon seeing that it was Aunt Guo and the proprietress stewing tuna heads, I couldn't help but joke with Chen Hong:

"Boss lady, how about the fish head soup is free for lunch today? Yesterday, we generously let everyone try the expensive tuna for free, so why don't we let everyone try the fish head soup too!"

Chen Hong turned around and saw the tenant, who was in his fifties, who had been playing drinking games with her the night before.

Judging from the way he played drinking games with beer last night, he is a very outgoing person.

Judging from his clothes, he seems to be from a well-off family and doesn't look like someone who's looking to get something for nothing.

Chen Hong teased him, "If it's free again, my hotel will go bankrupt."

"You're a big boss, you're not short of money. The point of going out to have fun is to spend money, why are you only thinking about saving?"

The generous older brother laughed heartily, "Little sister, stop joking. I can tell at a glance that you are a magnanimous and capable person."

Otherwise, why would they be willing to treat everyone to such expensive bluefin tuna for free?

Girl, don't worry, none of us are ungrateful bastards who take advantage of others. We'll definitely introduce customers to your hotel when we get back.

"From now on, our company will definitely come here for team building activities. I can decide that now!"

Chen Hong hadn't expected that this person was actually the company's CEO; appearances can be deceiving. Being able to take on the company's team-building business was a huge boon for the small hotel's operations.

"Brother, thank you so much! However, the inn is currently managed by Uncle Village Chief. Please contact him later to discuss the matter!"

I'm often out at sea and don't handle the hotel business. But I can still make the decisions about this tuna head soup.

I'm announcing that the fish head soup for lunch today is also free! Everyone, eat as much as you want! We're fishermen, so we're never short of seafood!

"Boss lady, you're so generous!"

"The boss is a very generous person! We'll introduce you to our clients when we get back!"

"Don't worry, boss. Whenever any of our relatives or friends come to the beach, they will definitely come to your village to support our small inn!"

Aunt Guo and Aunt Erhu, two simple and honest elderly women, kept thanking the guests. At lunchtime, they served food and rice with such ease that their hands didn't tremble, filling each plate to the brim.

The tenants laughed, saying that Aunt Guo and Aunt Erhu were going to get food from the school cafeteria window, which would definitely make the owner lose money!

Joking aside, the days spent living in Yujia Village were indeed very happy and relaxing.

The villagers here are all very simple and kind. We eat well, live well, and spend little money, yet enjoy family-like service.

Before leaving, I bought some dried seafood from the village chief, which was all inexpensive and of good quality.

Many tourists took the village chief's business card, saying they enjoyed the food and would call him to have him mail it to them. They would then pay the villagers via bank transfer.

It was only then that Chen Hong learned that the village had printed business cards, and the village chief had already helped the villagers sell a lot of dried seafood.

Nowadays, the villagers are never at home. They go to the beach to collect small fish, shrimp, and seaweed, which they then dry and sell to make money!

Chen Hong discussed it with the village chief and found that this method of selling on consignment was still not enough to generate enough sales volume.

Some villagers already have a lot of stock in their homes.

If they are not sold quickly, they will accumulate and spoil over time, which will dampen the villagers' enthusiasm.
