Chapter 54 All Distribution
Because the goods had to be delivered to Shunkelou before noon, Ye Caiping had to adjust the stall setting and delivery staff's time.
After returning home, Ye Caiping discussed the matter with Old Lady Ye and Daquan and Erquan.
Ye Caiping originally thought about making an extra bucket in the morning and delivering it to Shunkelou when setting up the stall.
But in the end I gave up.
If you make it too early, even if you keep it warm, the texture and taste will deteriorate after a long time, so you still have to make it now.
Old Lady Ye said, "The stalls in town can be closed at 9:30 pm. We can go home by then and make another bucket and have Ba Jin deliver it to Shunkelou. In the afternoon, have Ba Jin make another trip to pick you up."
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "That's too hasty. The stalls in the town will sell one less bucket starting tomorrow, and they will be closed before 9:00 p.m. As long as Shunkelou sells well, money will come naturally."
Old Mrs. Ye and the Daquan brothers were shocked. How much money would they lose?
Ye Jiner explained Ye Caiping's theory.
The mother and her two sons were confused, but since Ye Caiping said they could make money, then they could make money, so they just had to listen to her.
Ye Caiping thought for a moment and said, "Mom, you and my eldest brother can go to the county town tomorrow. I will take care of the Heshun Kelou in the town."
"OK."
…
In order to attract business, Shunkelou hung a sign at the door as soon as Ye Caiping left.
It means that starting tomorrow, spicy soup will be served at lunch.
A passerby happened to see the sign and shook his head: "Another copycat."
"Now that even the last imitator has gone bankrupt, there are still people who dare to imitate."
"Don't try it, it's another waste of money."
"From Baiweilou, I can look forward to it."
Shopkeeper Chi, who had just turned around, sighed softly. Although he was confident in the Huo La Tang, he was also afraid that it would not adapt to the local climate after leaving that stall.
The next day, Ye Caiping, Erquan and Jiner were in the small town.
Old Mrs. Ye, Daquan and Huaner went to the county town.
There were only two barrels in the town today, and they were sold out in a short time.
Many customers who didn't get to eat were disappointed: "I came early enough, why is it still not sold out! I remember there was a big bucket of it at this time in the past."
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "There will be more at noon, at Shunkelou. The goods there are supplied by our family."
"Huh? I saw a sign hanging in Shunkelou yesterday. I thought they were imitating it, but it turned out to be yours."
"Yes, you don't have to rush here so early next time. You can eat at Shunkelou later."
The customer was very happy. He bought a few steamed buns from Aunt Pang and left.
Whenever a regular customer came, Ye Caiping would repeat what she had said.
By the time everything was loaded onto the ox cart, half of the regular customers knew about it.
…
It was almost noon when Ye Caiping and Ye Erquan delivered the goods on time.
Shopkeeper Chi thought about the reactions of passers-by when they saw the sign yesterday and became very worried.
If the business doesn't pick up this time, he won't be able to keep the store open.
"I heard that the spicy soup from West Street can also be eaten here. Is that true?"
At this time, a man came over, holding a little girl in his arms, and next to him was a woman, holding a little boy.
Shopkeeper Chi's eyes lit up: "Yes, the soup has just been delivered and is still hot."
The man and the woman smiled at each other and said, "This restaurant is quite spacious. It's much more comfortable than sitting in a small stall. Let's go in and eat."
"Dad, I want to stuff youtiao with spicy soup."
"I want scrambled eggs."
"I'll give you some right away."
After the first customer came, the second came, and soon the originally deserted lobby was half filled with people.
In just one hour, all the spicy soup was sold out.
But since the customers had already come, there was no reason for them to turn around and leave, so they sat down to have lunch.
Shopkeeper Chi couldn't stop smiling.
What makes him happiest is that customers all say that they didn’t expect the food in this restaurant to be so delicious. They didn’t even know this before and they will come often in the future.
After lunch, Manager Chi immediately hired a donkey cart and headed for Qinghe Village.
He readily signed a contract with Ye Caiping for four barrels a day, two barrels each for lunch and dinner, for three months.
After Manager Chi left, Ye Caiping looked at her first contract in this world and was very satisfied.
Old Mrs. Ye and others also returned from the county town.
All three barrels that were pulled out today have been sold out, and some of them are still not enough.
…
Baiweilou——
The news that Shunkelou's business was improving because of the Hu La Tang soon reached the ears of Manager Lin.
Since the last time Shopkeeper Lin asked the doctor to taste the medicine, he finally tried out nine kinds of medicine. As for the proportions, I'm sorry, I can't figure it out at all!
How much to put in is up to you to figure out and decide!
Shopkeeper Lin was at a loss as it was impossible to make the food taste exactly the same if he developed it himself.
"Boss, this is the tenth version we have made. You can try it." The chef was a little impatient. He was almost marinated with spices in the past few days.
Shopkeeper Lin, along with two waiters, took a sip with a spoon.
Shopkeeper Lin felt that there was no difference from the previous editions.
The waiter's eyes lit up: "Although they are different, I think ours tastes better."
"Really?" Shopkeeper Lin was delighted. To be honest, he had been trying it out for the past few days and couldn't tell whether it tasted good or not.
Since the waiter said it was delicious, it should be good.
Besides, he didn't have time to adjust it, so he decided: "Let's go with this one! Shuanzi, hang up the sign."
The sign reads, "Baiweilou's homemade new recipe for spicy hot soup will go on sale tomorrow morning, with limited supply during lunch and dinner."
When pedestrians saw the announcement, they all stopped and became interested.
Baiweilou is a time-honored brand with good food, which makes people look forward to it.
When Shopkeeper Chi learned about this, his face turned pale.
I have finally accumulated some customers, I hope they are not snatched away by Baiweilou?
But the result was unexpected.
The next day, Baiweilou was packed with people, but after tasting the food, customers left shaking their heads.
At the morning market, because there were so many people trying the soup, it was sold out. However, at the lunch market, less than half of it was sold. At the evening market, only a quarter of the soup was sold.
The so-called new flavors of Baiweilou did not have an impact on Shunkelou. On the contrary, with the comparison, Shunkelou's business became better.
When Shopkeeper Chi saw this, he was very happy.
The next morning.
Because of the lunch and dinner options at Shunkelou, Ye Caiping's stall is no longer as prosperous as before.
I used to sell three barrels in three hours, but now I only sell two barrels in three hours.
If customers cannot eat there, they don’t have to worry, they can wait until noon or evening to eat at Shunkelou.
Shopkeeper Chi came over with two boxes of snacks and smiled, "Sister Ye, thank you so much."
"In addition to the popular spicy soup, my dishes are also popular during lunch and dinner. Now everyone knows that my dishes are delicious! It's all thanks to you, thank you."
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "The reason why your restaurant is so popular is not only because of its spicy soup, but also because your dishes are delicious."
Shopkeeper Chi laughed and said, "You should come to my house and try it when you have time."
"good."
"Well..." Shopkeeper Chi rubbed his hands and said embarrassedly, "I see that Big Sister only sells two buckets a day... How about selling me these two buckets in the morning? That way, Big Sister, you can relax a little."
I thought Ye Caiping would hesitate, but unexpectedly she smiled and nodded: "Okay! I'll give you two buckets in the morning, and I won't set up a stall."
Shopkeeper Chi was excited: "Thank you, haha! By the way, how many more do you plan to provide for the big sister?"
There was some worry in his tone.
Ye Caiping smiled and said, "One in the morning market, and two in the afternoon and evening markets. I can't supply any more."
Shopkeeper Chi breathed a sigh of relief, chatted for a while, and then left happily.
As soon as he left, two people came together.
One is a young man in his early twenties, and the other is an old man in his fifties.
"Boss Ye, I'm from Decai Inn."
"I'm from Daxing Restaurant. I heard that you supply goods to Shunkelou, can you also supply some to us?"
Ye Caiping nodded, and the three of them sat down and talked for a while, agreeing to only provide lunch and meals for the two of them.
After the two of them left, Fatty came over with a look of regret on her face and asked, "Sister Caiping, are you not going to open a stall anymore?"
"Yes, we will only deliver to these three companies from now on."
Fat Sister was very reluctant to leave.
She also felt a little envious and a bit uneasy. Now that Ye Caiping was gone, wouldn't her family's business be back to square one?
Fatty said awkwardly, "Well, sister, can you give me a bucket? I'll give them whatever price they offer."
Ye Caiping smiled: "I just promised to give them only two buckets at the Shunkelou morning market, and I wanted to give you the remaining bucket. If there are more, I really can't make them out."
"Sister Caiping, thank you." Fat Sister grabbed her hand excitedly.
Ye Caiping still had half a bucket left in her hand. Every time a customer came, Ye Caiping would explain that she would not be selling the goods that day and that Pang Jie had some for sale.
The customer looked regretful and reluctant.
After all, it is always disappointing when a stall you have been eating at for so long suddenly closes.
After selling the last half bucket, Ye Caiping packed up her things and left with Ye Erquan and Ye Jiner in a ox cart.
Looking at the stall that was gradually submerged in the crowd, Ye Caiping smiled faintly with a mixture of reluctance and relief.
The first stage of her career is completed!
