Chapter 207 You are so awesome
Yu Hui shook her head. "If we sell it in the morning, we'll have to get up at three in the morning to prepare. And the meat from the meat processing plant can't be delivered that early. It usually arrives at half past five, so there's no time to prepare."
Qian Lan thought about it, her eyes lighting up. "We can sell vegetarian noodles and shredded pork noodles in the morning. It doesn't take long to stir-fry the shredded pork, so there's definitely enough time."
Yu Hui smiled and said, "But the noodles need to be cooked in advance, so we have to get up at three o'clock."
"Get up at three o'clock, just get up at three o'clock. What's the big deal about getting up early just to make money?" Qian Lan said nonchalantly.
Yu Hui shook her head: "Then I can't get up."
Qian Lan immediately responded, "If you can't get up, I'll get up and knead the dough, and you can just get up at five o'clock and stir-fry the shredded pork."
"Get up so early every day, don't you want to take care of your health?" Yu Hui looked at Qian Lan and asked.
Qian Lan was silent for a moment, then blinked and said, "I can just go to bed early."
"I don't plan to sell at the morning market. People at the morning market are in a hurry and won't queue up like at noon. I have to get up early to prepare, and I'm busy in the morning and busy at noon too. It's too tiring."
"Besides, I have several children to take care of."
Qian Lan glanced at the children. She was so focused on making more money that she forgot about her children.
Her two sons are grown up and don't need her to take care of them, but Yu Hui's children are still young.
"I didn't think it through."
Yu Hui continued, "My idea is to increase the beef by five pounds tomorrow, the shredded pork by two pounds, keep the pig intestines the same, and use only one bag of flour. We'll start selling at noon, and close when we sell out."
Why does the amount of pig intestines remain unchanged?
Because it is too troublesome to clean the intestines.
Qian Lan frowned and looked at Yu Hui without saying anything. After a long while, she said, "Okay."
At 2:30 the children went to school. Yu Hui and Qian Lan collected their money, closed the shop and went home.
Gu Huai got off work on time. After get off work, he ran all the way to the store door, but found it closed.
Could it be that no one came to eat and they closed early?
This possibility immediately popped up in Gu Huai's mind.
On the way home, I was thinking about how to comfort my wife.
"Daddy is here." Gu Xixi was the first one to run towards her father when she saw him.
Gu Huai bent down, picked him up, lifted him up and put him down again.
"Where's your mother?"
Gu Xixi: "Mom is cooking."
"Help Dad take the bag and hat into the house." Gu Huai gave the bag and hat to his youngest son.
"Okay." Gu Xixi took her father's bag and hat and carried them into the house.
Gu Huai walked into the kitchen, mentally organized his words, and then looked at Yu Hui, who was standing at the counter chopping vegetables, and asked, "What are we having for dinner?"
"Let's have bacon, beans, porridge, and tomato and egg soup. Let's keep it simple tonight. I'll buy some spare ribs tomorrow and stew them for dinner."
From now on, the children will eat noodles for lunch, so the dinner will be equivalent to the main meal, so they should eat better.
Gu Huai: Is this what you call a simple meal?
Her definition of simple eating is too high.
However, this also shows that her mood was not affected by the bad business.
"The team will have a holiday in two days. I'll have everyone in our group come to your shop to eat noodles. You're a good cook. The bad business is just temporary. It will get better slowly. Don't worry..."
"Business is not good in the store?" Yu Hui interrupted Gu Huai with a frown.
Smiling, he asked, "Who told you that business in your store is not good?"
Gu Huai: "...You closed the shop so early..."
Yu Hui's smile widened. "Well, I closed so early because I've sold out. If everything is sold out, why should I keep the door open?"
"Also, I originally only wanted to sell at lunch time, not at morning or evening markets."
Gu Huai was stunned. "So the business is good?"
"Yeah." Yu Hui nodded, then looked at him and asked, "Guess how much money I made today?"
Her desire to share emerged and she wanted to share with others.
Gu Huai thought about it. She was talking about how much money she made, not how much it sold for. So, "Ten yuan?"
Earning ten dollars a day was already a lot in Gu Huai's opinion.
Yu Hui curled her lips, "You look down on me too much."
"Then twenty." Gu Huai doubled the amount.
This is a month's salary for someone.
"It's forty." Yu Hui stretched out four fingers.
forty?
Gu Huai's eyes widened in shock. "Did he sell it for forty, or..."
"I sold more than 70 pieces, and after deducting the cost, I made a net profit of 40 pieces." Yu Hui raised her chin slightly, with an expression that said, "I'm awesome, right?"
Gu Huai was really shocked. He didn't expect that opening a small noodle shop could make so much money. He made 40 yuan in lunch break.
"So how many bowls of noodles did you sell?"
Yu Hui roughly calculated, "About two hundred and fifty or two hundred and sixty bowls."
Two hundred and fifty or two hundred and sixty bowls! That means that two hundred and fifty or two hundred and sixty people went to the restaurant to eat noodles at noon.
"Will there be no room for everyone?" There are only eight tables in the restaurant.
“It’s true that there’s not enough room to sit down, but everyone doesn’t mind and is willing to stand and eat with their bowls.”
The noodles she makes are so attractive that people want to eat them while standing.
"You're awesome." Gu Huai gave his young wife a thumbs up.
Hearing the compliment, Yu Hui smiled proudly and contentedly.
"You must be tired after cooking so many bowls of noodles in one afternoon. Take a rest and I'll do the rest." Gu Huai stepped forward and took the knife from Yu Hui's hand.
Yu Hui was stunned for a moment as she looked at his resolute profile. She was indeed tired, and her hands were a little weak at the moment.
If Gu Huai wanted to do it, she let him do it.
Yu Qiang didn't come back until dinner time. After he washed his hands and sat down, Qian Lan asked him to guess how much money the noodle shop had made that day.
"Five dollars, ten dollars." Yu Qiang said casually.
Qian Lan shook her head.
"It's forty yuan." Yu Lixin said.
"Forty!" Yu Qiang looked at his wife. "Forty in total?"
Qian Lan smiled and said, "It's a net profit of 40 yuan. I sold it for more than 70 yuan."
"Everyone is lining up to eat. Xiaoyu and I are so busy preparing the ingredients that we can't handle it all."
Yu Qiang was really shocked. At first, his wife said that they wanted to open a noodle shop together. She would do the work and Xiao Yu would pay for it, and he would give her 10% of the income every month. He thought that this noodle shop would not last long.
At most she can get seven or eight dollars a month.
Unexpectedly, business was so booming on the first day.
If you earn forty yuan a day, how much can you earn in a month?
Yu Qiang couldn't calculate this number, nor did he dare to think about it.
He just smacked his lips and said, "Business is so good?"
"It's more than just good, it's a huge hit." Qian Lan said with some regret, "It's a pity that Xiao Yu doesn't want to be too tired and doesn't sell at the morning and evening markets. Otherwise, he could make more money."
"As someone who only contributed labor and never paid a penny before, it's hard for me to say much."
If you don't contribute money or effort, you won't have any say.
Yu Qiang said with some regret: "You and Xiao Yu should have shared half and half."
If each person gets half, they can earn at least several hundred yuan a month. Now they can only get a small amount.
Qian Lan whispered, "I didn't expect this business to be so good and profitable."
