Chapter 66: Get lost, don't mess around at my door
Business in the store was very good, and just like before, it was busy until noon.
Ye Muqi cooked two bowls of leftover wontons and brought them over to eat with Cai Dongmei.
"Xixi, you seem to be in a good mood these past two days?" Cai Dongmei looked at Ye Muxi and said with a smile, "You've been busy in the store every day, but your complexion hasn't been affected at all. Your complexion is getting more and more beautiful with a hint of pink in it."
The store is still busy every day, but Ye Muqi is the busiest one. Cai Dongmei feels that after Ye Muqi came, although she has been in the store for a long time, she has felt a lot more relaxed.
"Really?" Ye Muqi touched his face, but didn't pay much attention to it.
But now that I'm in love, I'm in a good mood.
"I looked around here yesterday and saw a lot of workers coming out to eat at noon." Ye Muqi smiled at Cai Dongmei and told her what he saw yesterday.
"Well, there are several factories nearby, and some people from the residential areas work there, and some are recruited from outside. Those who live nearby can go home to eat, but those who come from outside live in the factory dormitories, but there is no cafeteria in the factory, so they can only eat out." Cai Dongmei nodded and explained.
She has run the breakfast shop here for quite a long time. In the past, workers would come to her shop to eat wontons at noon, but then her grandson wasn't in good health for a while, so she prepared less every day, thinking of selling out as much as possible before noon so she could go back to take care of her grandson, so later these workers stopped coming.
"Didn't I tell you before that I wanted to sell lunch? I'm going to make a big bowl of rice, take a look." Ye Muqi showed Cai Dongmei the menu he had prepared yesterday, and explained to her what a big bowl of rice was.
Cai Dongmei looked at the menu that Ye Muqi had prepared. There were 6 dishes a day, and two side dishes. This meant that you could eat as much as you wanted, and the fee was per person.
Cai Dongmei had definitely never seen this method before.
"We charge one dollar and fifty cents per person, what do you think?" One dollar and fifty cents can only buy one vegetarian dish and one pork dish in a restaurant, but with this big bowl of rice, she can get two pork dishes and four vegetarian dishes.
A bowl of noodles with side dishes for breakfast costs 80 cents. If the price is too low, it would not be friendly for breakfast if there are so many dishes for lunch.
"Two of your dishes have meat in them..." Cai Dongmei looked a little worried, "Will it be a bit of a loss?"
"I have contacted a vegetable wholesaler. There are discounts for buying in large quantities. The price is much lower than the market price. You shouldn't lose money. You don't have to worry about it." Ye Muqi explained.
Space wholesale, all free, large quantity available, quality and quantity guaranteed!
"So..." Cai Dongmei was relieved after hearing that. Many workers ate outside at noon. If they could sell it, it wouldn't be much worse than breakfast. "Then tell me how much you're going to pay for the food, and I'll pay half of it."
Cai Dongmei would never let the little girl bear all the burden alone.
"Well... that's fine." Ye Muqi nodded and agreed, "I don't know much about Beijing either. Can you help me see if there is anything I need to change about this menu?"
Although Ye Muqi had decided on the menu, he was still worried that some of the dishes might not be popular in Beijing.
"Beijing people have two favorite side dishes." Cai Dongmei looked at them and said.
The side dish that Cai Dongmei mentioned was not on the menu, so Ye Muqi quickly wrote it down and added it to the menu. There was nothing wrong with the other dishes, as they had richer flavors and could satisfy different groups of people.
"Xixi, you can cook so many dishes?" Cai Dongmei was surprised when she thought about the twenty or so dishes on the menu, which were different from those for breakfast.
Although Ye Muqi can cook, he can only cook so many dishes of different flavors, which is almost as good as the chefs in restaurants!
"I have loved cooking since I was a child and I loved studying recipes, and gradually I mastered it." In fact, in order to climb to the position of a seven-star chef throughout her life, she did learn to cook all kinds of dishes.
It’s hard work, but I really enjoy it!
"You are so amazing, your man is so lucky!" With such skills, which man would not want to fight to marry her?
"I think so too!"
Rong Jingchen made a fortune by marrying her.
Seeing that she was still a little proud, Cai Dongmei couldn't help but laugh twice.
After they finished eating the wontons, Ye Muqi looked around the store. It couldn't accommodate so many people even during breakfast, and it was estimated that the big bowls of rice wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people.
"Grandma, for big bowls of rice, we'll just take two tables and put the rice and dishes on both sides. We'll collect the money and give the bowls, and let the guests serve themselves whatever they want and as much as they want. They'll just get one bowl." Ye Muqi planned. This was actually similar to a buffet.
Buy some more stools. They will be used mainly for serving food inside the store. People can sit outside to eat after serving, so there is no need to worry about not having enough seats.
"Okay!" Cai Dongmei thought about it and felt it was a good idea, so the two of them stood in the store and discussed how to arrange the store and how to put the dishes if they sold big bowls of rice.
…
Zhang Xiuxiu's business has been bad recently. Thinking that no one buys her cakes in the morning, she decided to try selling them at noon. But when she came here, she saw that Xiaosun's breakfast shop was still open?
Although it seemed that there was no one in the store, Zhang Xiuxiu couldn't help but walk over, holding a handful of melon seeds in her hand, and stood at the door looking inside.
"That's it, let's get ready first, and we'll start next week at noon." Ye Muqi nodded and discussed the matter with Cai Dongmei.
There are basically no problems with the menu and how to prepare it in the store. Now we just need to do some more preparation. It would be best to make a sign in advance so that we can put it outside the store for promotion.
Zhang Xiuxiu watched the store, which was so busy in the morning that it was packed, but now there was no customer in the store. Only Ye Muqi and Cai Dongmei were in the store, mumbling something to each other. But the two of them had smiles on their faces, pointing here and there, as if they were going to adjust the facilities in the store.
The smile on Cai Dongmei's face is dazzling!
This means you have made some money, so are you going to renovate the store?
When Zhang Xiuxiu thought of this possibility, her face darkened and she snorted coldly.
"Hey, what are you planning?" Zhang Xiuxiu stood at the door, looked around the store, and said with a sinister expression, "Are you thinking about how to seduce male customers?"
"I'm telling you, little girl, you'd better be careful and don't hook up with a married man. Some time ago, I saw a mistress being beaten by the original wife. That scene... Oh my, you didn't see it, it was so exciting!" Zhang Xiuxiu said, and took out the melon seeds in her hand and started cracking them. She even threw the shells into the store with a malicious intent and threw them all at the door.
There were no customers in the store now, and without those customers to speak for Ye Muqi, Zhang Xiuxiu was very proud at the moment.
Ye Muqi was talking in high spirits, but when he heard Zhang Xiuxiu's words, his face suddenly turned cold and he glared towards the door.
When he took another look, he saw melon seed shells scattered on the floor at the door which had just been swept. His face became even uglier and he immediately took two steps towards her.
"Get lost, don't be a jerk at my door!" Ye Muqi said coldly.
