Now everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.
During this period, Yang Liu and her elder sister made several other flavors of buns at home, and only selected the ones they were best at and that their family thought were the most delicious to sell.
On the other hand, Ye Fanhua was actively preparing for the opening of the business. In order to have a good start, he even went to a fortune teller to calculate an auspicious date for the opening of the business. Finally, he set the date on the sixth day of June, which means everything will go smoothly.
They had everything ready the day before the opening.
Making breakfast is actually very tiring. Most people go to work or school around seven o'clock, so they usually go to the store around five o'clock to start making and steaming buns.
This is indeed a test for Yang Liu, who loves to sleep in.
But now she is only thinking about making money and doesn't take this matter seriously at all.
On the opening day, she and Yang Nan got up at five o'clock and walked to the store for twenty minutes.
Ye Fanhua had arrived early, the stove and other things were already lit, and the dough had risen last night, so all he had to do this morning was wrap it.
Yang Nan is responsible for rolling the noodles, and Yang Liu is responsible for wrapping them.
At the beginning, they only sold three kinds of fillings: pure meat filling, mushroom meat filling, and red bean paste filling.
Their buns are quite solid. One pound of flour can make fifteen buns. On the first day, they only mixed twenty pounds of flour because they were afraid that they would make too much and not be able to sell them, and that they would not be easy to preserve in the hot weather.
Moreover, the buns that are left overnight will definitely not taste good, so they try to sell fresh buns on the same day to avoid selling overnight items and ruining their reputation.
At half past six, people started going to work on the road. When they smelled the fragrant steamed buns, some came over to ask about them.
Ye Fanhua was so enthusiastic about doing business that he used a loud speaker to shout, "Steamed buns now! Big buns with thin skin and lots of fillings. If they don't taste good, I won't charge you."
Then the whole street was filled with his voice.
Fortunately, no one is in charge now, otherwise people would definitely think he is disturbing the public and would complain.
The voice is really too loud.
At the beginning, there were not many people, and he was busy filling the pots and collecting money by himself. Later, around seven o'clock, more and more people came, and there were not many doughs left at the back, so Yang Nan did it alone and asked Yang Liu to go to the front to help.
For an average adult, two are enough, while for a student, one is enough.
Most people bought two, and business was surprisingly good on the first day of opening.
There were also many grandpas and aunties who came to buy some and after eating, they all praised it: "They said the buns are really good and the fillings are very solid."
At this price, you can eat such substantial meat buns, so why would you need a bicycle?
I'd like to eat here every day.
The pure meat-filled buns are 1.5 cents each, and the mushroom and red bean paste ones are both 1.0 cents each. I made a total of 300 today, 100 of each, for a total profit of 35 yuan. After deducting the cost, I can basically make a net profit of 20 yuan.
But later on, some people came to buy, but they were sold out, so they could make more tomorrow.
After selling for half a month, Yang Liu basically determined the customer flow and adjusted the number of buns they made according to everyone's work and school schedules.
I found that on weekends, since people are not working or going to school, there are relatively fewer people coming to buy buns, so I have to make smaller quantities.
On normal working days, the number of buns produced each day is controlled at around 500.
If there are more, the two of them can't do it, anyway, the maximum is 500.
More than a month passed like this. Because their buns were delicious and substantial, many people living nearby would come to buy them.
Some people suggested that eating only buns would be too choking, and it would be better if there was something to drink.
For this, Yang Liu added freshly ground soy milk and red date porridge.
Their workload has also increased.
Yang Liu and her elder sister stayed in the store almost every day. They were busy until very late every night and left before dawn the next day.
Chu Yue felt very uncomfortable about this, mainly because he was worried that his wife would work day and night and hurt her health.
And his son also complained to him that his mother had no time to play with them.
It was the weekend again, and when there were fewer people, they didn't have to make too many buns, so they were finally able to get off work early tonight.
Chu Yue had already prepared dinner at home, and when the two of them came back, the table was already full of food.
As soon as Yang Liu entered the house, Shitou rushed over, hugged her legs, tilted his head back, and said seriously, "Mom, you haven't been with us for a long time."
She was dirty, so she didn't hug him. She just rubbed his head and said with a smile: "When mom is done with her busy schedule, I will play with you and take you to the park to see the monkeys, okay?"
"Keep your word." Then he stretched out his hand to make a pinky promise.
Mu Tou came over and said, "Mom, Dad has cooked the meal. Come on, wash your hands and have dinner."
After dinner in the evening, Yang Liu took a shower. With her hair still wet, she wanted to lie down to rest, but Chu Yue pulled her over. "You always reminded me that sleeping with wet hair can cause headaches, so why don't you listen?"
"Oh, I'm so tired. I just want to lie down."
Chu Yue dried her hair with a dry handkerchief, and then rubbed her shoulders and back.
He asked tentatively, "Liuliu, even though your shop is profitable, you're working so hard day and night. It's too tiring. How can your body withstand this in the long run?"
"I know. It's just that the shop isn't on track yet. Once it's on track, I'll hire someone to run it."
She certainly won't always do everything herself like this. If a woman works too hard when she is young, she will easily develop a lot of health problems when she gets older.
Making buns, grinding soy milk and cooking porridge are not technical jobs. The only trick is the recipe of the filling and ensuring the freshness of the ingredients. When the time is right, she will find two honest and reliable people to help and teach them the method.
In fact, it wasn't just the two of them who couldn't stand the exhaustion. Young master Ye Fanhua couldn't stand it for a long time. The main reason was that this business was a partnership, and the two girls could endure hardships, go to bed late and get up early, so how could a grown man like him fall behind them?
So he also got up early and went to bed late every day. After a long time, he couldn't bear it anymore.
If Yang Liu had brought up the idea of finding someone to help, he would have almost agreed with both hands.
The worst that can happen is that after hiring someone, they earn a little less every month, and that doesn’t matter.
It's really tiring.
