Chapter 75: Seven hundred coins!
Pei Yian was carrying fish fillet tofu soup and did not follow the principle of proximity, but chose a more roundabout route.
This road requires many diners to pass by the restaurant. As he walked along, he left a trail of delicious fragrance, which aroused the appetite of many people.
Everyone stared at Pei Yian. After he brought the dish to the table, he said, "Sir, your fish fillet and tofu soup is ready. Please enjoy it."
Everyone looked at each other, with disbelief in their eyes and faces. Such a delicious and fragrant taste was actually fish soup?
In their impression, fish always tastes earthy and fishy, and has nothing to do with freshness or fragrance...
Someone saw the people at that table eating happily with their bowls and chopsticks, and couldn't help but feel curious. "Hey, is there really fish in here?"
"Of course, you can try it." Mao Gaoyuan said enthusiastically. Anyway, he had ordered a large table of dishes and couldn't finish them, so it didn't matter if he shared some with others.
He was very familiar with the shock and confusion of these people. He was the same before. Before he had eaten the fish made by Miss Ji, he also had such prejudice against fish.
This idea is completely wrong! Let them taste it and it will prove the fish meat.
The person asking the question was not embarrassed and asked for a bowl of fish soup.
He was still a little unwilling to give up, so he moved his nose and sniffed hard to see if it was just an illusion. Only then did he not smell the earthy smell.
But no, the bowl in front of me only emanated a fresh fragrance.
Picking up the spoon, he first tasted a piece of tofu, which was more stable. The tofu melted on the tip of the tongue with just one sip and tasted excellent. He then drank a mouthful of the milky white soup, which was rich and fragrant. Finally, he tasted the fish meat, which was similar to the tofu, but a little more delicate. The amazing thing was that there was no bone at all.
"Give me a bowl of fish soup too!" After saying that, the man finished all the soup in the bowl.
Those who planned to watch the show were even more curious, "Brother, how does this fish soup taste?"
"Good, good, great!" He said three good words in a row, holding the bowl, looking towards the kitchen and began to look forward to it.
The shameless people followed his example and asked Mao Gaoyuan for a small bowl. A mouthful of the delicious soup captured their stomachs.
Most people in the hall ordered fish fillet and tofu soup. This restaurant is really unique. They can cook the fish without any fishy smell and the taste is so good!
The guests' dishes were served one after another. The diners sometimes nodded, sometimes praised, and without exception were very satisfied. They gave full marks to this newly opened restaurant in their hearts.
Pei Yian brought a bowl of brown sugar ice jelly to everyone, "This bowl of brown sugar ice jelly is a gift from our family. Thank you very much for your support!"
Everyone who was enjoying the meal didn't expect to receive an unexpected surprise, and their opinion of the restaurant became even higher.
The brown sugar icy jelly has also received unanimous praise from everyone. Having a bowl of it in the hot summer is simply a pleasure.
The most excited person present was Mao Gaoyuan. His stomach was full, but the delicious food on the table made him reluctant to put down his chopsticks.
Fresh and delicious, the food Miss Ji eats is so delicious that he wishes he could stay in the restaurant to eat every day.
Especially this Dongpo pork, which is soft and tasty, fat but not greasy, and has a long aftertaste. He will definitely ask Miss Ji for advice later.
Zhang Dahu couldn't stop eating with his chopsticks. He felt that it was the right decision for him to come along today. His admiration for Miss Ji reached a new level, even to the same level as his master.
With such skills, it would not be an exaggeration to let her be the chef at a banquet, or even the chef in the imperial kitchen.
He has been a chef for many years and has eaten a lot of good food, but the experience of today's table is really new and delicious.
Mrs. Wang and Shopkeeper Wu, who were in the private room upstairs, were also amazed. Mrs. Wang was better off, as she had tasted Ji Zhisui's cooking at the old lady's birthday banquet before.
But Shopkeeper Wu didn't. She only knew that Miss Ji had set up a stall near the dock before, but she didn't expect her cooking skills to be so good that she wanted to come to the restaurant to eat every day.
After the meal, the diners left and Ji Zhisui and others could finally rest for a while.
Ji Zhisui also breathed a sigh of relief. The restaurant's business was pretty good today, so it shouldn't be too bad. He just didn't know how much money he had earned.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead and saw a moon-white robe in front of her. She knew who it was without even looking up.
"Sui Niang, drink some water. Here is the account book. Take a look. I put all the money I earned today in the cabinet." Pei Yian held the water in one hand and the account book in the other.
Ji Zhisui didn't expect the other party to be so considerate. Before she said anything, she had sorted out everything and brought it to him.
She took the water and took a sip, then picked up the account book and started to look at it. The records in the account book were very detailed and clear. Ji Zhisui only glanced at it roughly and his eyes fell on the very end, wanting to see how much money he had earned that day.
Seven hundred and ninety coins!
!!
!!!
The restaurant had only been open for one morning, but it had already earned nearly eight hundred coins, which was the income from setting up a stall outside for two days!
If you add the performance in the afternoon, you can at least make one or two taels of silver!
Although most of the support came from Brother Mao, it was a good start after all. Ji Zhisui was already very satisfied, and she also believed that Baiwei Restaurant would get better and better!
She stood up, ran to the counter and opened the drawer, which was full of money. She put her hands on the silver and touched it left and right, smiling.
Pei Yian came to the counter at some point. Ji Zhisui was so excited about the money that he couldn't help but want to share his joy with the people around him.
She tugged at Pei Yian's sleeve, her tone full of excitement, "Brother An, did you see that? There's money in here!"
"Well, there will be more and more money in the future."
Ji Zhisui nodded and agreed: "Yes, I will become a rich woman in the future!"
"I believe in Sui Niang." Pei Yian took in her picturesque eyebrows and smiling eyes. Since her dream was to become a rich woman, he could not fall behind and drag Sui Niang down.
I only earned 500 coins in the afternoon, which was less than what I earned in the morning, but it was still a considerable amount. Together with the more than 700 coins I earned in the morning, the total was one tael and two coins of silver.
Excluding the cost of purchasing materials, it is almost nine hundred coins.
Everyone was very busy today. When guests came, they were all busy. I cooked the food myself, Pei Yian entertained the guests, collected money and settled the bills; Pei Ersao made spring rolls; Old Madam Pei and Mrs. Pei helped by lighting the fire, washing and cutting vegetables; and the two children also helped.
Everyone is tired after a day's work, so the wages must not be reduced. The remaining 700 or so coins are the net profit earned today. If this level is maintained, the rent can be earned back in a few months.
