Chapter 146 Frying Pan
The three of them discussed for a while, and feeling that it was getting dark, Mr. Shen and his grandson prepared to return to the private school first.
Wen Yongnan and Wen Yongman didn't have to go to class tomorrow, so they stayed in the store.
When they went to bed at night, Xiao Abu and the others felt a little regretful because they no longer had stories to listen to from Wen Zhenyi. Instead, they could only listen to stories from books told to them by Wen Yongnan.
But even so, they are still very happy.
Zhu Tao slept late today and sat next to Wen Zhenyi: "Yiyi, what are we selling tomorrow?"
"I forgot to ask you, what materials did you buy today?"
"We only bought vegetables. We don't know what meat to buy."
"I forgot to ask the tofu seller to buy some bean dregs today."
Zhu Tao looked at her with some confusion: "What are you buying bean dregs for?"
“Bean dregs can also be used for breakfast.”
"Bean curd breakfast?"
"Hmm, it tastes unique."
"It's too late now, so what are we going to sell tomorrow?"
Wen Zhen stood up and walked towards the kitchen: "Let me see what's in the kitchen first."
Zhu Tao followed her and went to the kitchen with her.
Wen Zhenyi saw zucchini, carrots, and some common seasonings in the kitchen and thought for a moment: "We make zucchini pancakes every day."
"Okay, there are still plenty of eggs and enough flour."
"How's business today?"
"It's as good as usual. The customers love the popsicles. All the ones I made today are sold out. I soaked some mung beans and glutinous rice and plan to make glutinous rice popsicles tomorrow."
"What about fruit?"
"The fruit popsicles are also sold out, and some customers haven't bought any yet."
"Xiao Taozi, do you think we should hold an opening event?"
"Is it opening soon?"
"We should have held an opening event, but our store has been doing so well that we forgot about it."
Zhu Tao couldn't think of any good ideas: "What activities are you planning?"
"Give everyone some discounts."
Zhu Tao scratched his head and said, "Yi Yi, some of our items are only two or three cents. How can we offer a discount?"
Wen Zhenyi originally planned to give everyone a discount, but if the items costing a few cents were discounted, there might be change left, which would be difficult to collect. It would be more practical to give one cent off for every three cents, two cents off for every six cents, and so on.
"Three cents will be exempted from one cent and only require two cents to be paid. Six cents will be exempted from two cents and only require four cents to be paid, and so on."
Zhu Tao calculated that the nine coins only meant she would have to pay six coins. The more she spent, the more she could save.
“Will this be a loss?”
"There's no such thing as a loss, it's just to gain popularity."
"When do we start?"
"Starting tomorrow, for three days in a row."
"Then we have to prepare a lot of things. It might be difficult to rest in the next few days."
"This is also a thank you for your support over such a long time. It can be regarded as a benefit for everyone."
Zhu Tao is very motivated now. She has to work hard to make money so that she can pay off all the debts she owes. "Yi Yi, go to bed early. I'm going to bed first."
Wen Zhen nodded: "You go to sleep first, I want to sit for a while."
Zhu Tao nodded and went back to her room to rest.
Wen Zhenyi was thinking about the flower viewing party in the lotus garden and what snacks he needed to prepare to satisfy everyone.
Potato chips and popcorn can be considered, as well as various herbal teas and popsicles. She can also provide some ice cubes, which can greatly increase the probability of others choosing her.
Another thing Chun Shuisheng can consider is that if he can provide fruits, he can also make small fruit snacks.
You can consider making Chinese-style tea fruits, but the lack of an oven limits her creativity. I must remember to ask someone to build her an oven tomorrow. Even if it's not as convenient as an oven, at least she can try it out.
Wen Zhenyi made up his mind and went back to his room to sleep.
The next day.
Everyone got up early, and Wen Zhenyi and Ma Yinghe told their plans.
Ma Yinghe smiled and nodded: "This event is good, I believe there will be more customers coming."
"It looks like today is going to be another busy day." Aunt Ding and the others are now used to such fulfilling days, which are much better than doing housework at home.
The most important thing is that Wen Zhenyi never cooks for them without their knowledge. He even teaches them how to cook and how to make it delicious.
While they were waiting for their break, they went home and showed off their skills to their families.
Wen Zhenyi looked at Wen Chengwen and said, "Dad, please help me find some bricklayers."
"What do you want to do with the bricklayer?"
"I want to make something, and I need to find a blacksmith."
"Okay, I'll go now." Wen Chengwen stood up and prepared to go out after he said that.
Ma Yinghe hurriedly pulled him back: "Don't you see what time it is? No one is awake yet. If you go in now, won't it disturb their rest?"
Wen Chengwen looked up at the sky and said awkwardly, "I'm used to it. I always think that others are the same as us."
Wen Zhenyi smiled and said, “Dad, let’s go after breakfast. You don’t have to go to the private school to deliver breakfast today. Grandpa Shen and the others are also taking a break and will come over to eat together.”
Their workload today was much heavier than before. They washed all the zucchini and carrots they bought yesterday and cut them into thin strips.
Wen Zhenyi rarely has the opportunity to do things herself now. Basically, she just talks and others do it.
Including several children, everyone helped wash the zucchini and carrots, with happy smiles on their faces.
Wen Zhenyi watched Zhu Tao cutting zucchini and carrots, pointed out the mistakes to her, and demonstrated it to her personally.
Zhu Tao watched very carefully and memorized the techniques and rhythm of cutting. When she started cutting again, it was much smoother and the shreds were more even.
The others all learned seriously, trying to cut the vegetables like her. Although they were still not as good as her, they had made great progress.
Wen Zhenyi asked them to mix flour, eggs, shredded zucchini, shredded carrots and water into a batter, took out her frying pan and poured some oil in it.
She poured the batter into the pan and fried one side until golden brown. Then she easily flipped the spoon and the pancake turned over instantly.
Everyone in the kitchen was stunned: "This won't fall off?"
"With more practice, you can do it easily." As he said this, a golden zucchini pancake was already out of the oven.
She asked Zhu Tao to try it, and she cut the fried zucchini omelet into triangles, sprinkled the ketchup she had prepared earlier on it, and served it to the children first.
Zhu Tao didn't dare to imitate her and flip the pancake over, so she could only carefully turn it over with a spatula.
When Wen Zhenyi returned to the kitchen, she asked Wen Yongnan to help light the stove, and she started making zucchini pancakes on the stove, which was much more difficult than making them in a frying pan.
