It took a total of twenty-two days to completely renovate the North Street branch. All the tables, chairs, benches, pots, pans, and utensils had been purchased, and the one hundred taels of silver had been used up to the fullest.
The signboard has been hung up. Xiao Yi and his three brothers are already familiar with all kinds of small ingredients, as well as the cooking methods of toppings, and have mastered the techniques of frying dumplings and fried rice. They can take care of all matters in the kitchen.
The waiters were already in place. They put on the clothes embroidered with the words "Xiao Ji" specially prepared by Jiang Sui and were ready to go.
As for the West Street main store, during the period when the North Street branch was being renovated, it also did a lot of external marketing work. Now everyone knows that there is a Xiao Ji branch on North Street, so customers living in Taipei no longer have to travel far to eat noodles.
Moreover, the opening of the branch will bring benefits. There will also be dragon and lion dance performances, which will be festive and auspicious, and also liven up the business.
When the new store opened, Jiang Sui made several baskets of leek and pork pies overnight and gave them away for free, as well as free tofu pudding.
However, this leek and pork pie is limited in quantity, one per person, and will be given away while stocks last.
Many customers came for the welfare. On the day when North Street opened, there were fewer people on West Street, so Jiang Sui, Xiao Hechuan and Xiao Lanlan went to North Street to help.
Madam Song specially asked for leave from the hairpin shop and went over to help Xiao Qin and the others.
Since they settled down in Jeju, the relationship between Madam Song and Xiao Qin has gradually warmed up.
Xiao Qin often bought cakes and delivered them to Madam Song at the hairpin shop when he was free. Sometimes when Madam Song was making hairpins and came home late, Xiao Qin would go specially to pick up the mother and daughter and take them home.
Both of them now know clearly how the other feels about them. In fact, it all depends on when Xiao Qin speaks up. Madam Song is willing to rebuild a family with him. Firstly, they are in love with each other, and secondly, Xiao Qin treats Xuxu very well, and Xuxu also likes Xiao Qin very much.
Needless to say, Yuan Ge'er is always talking about his sister Xuxu. Both children lack fatherly love and motherly love, and it just so happens that Madam Song and Xiao Yi can satisfy the two children's fantasies about their father and mother, just one finishing touch.
The Xiao family also strongly supports Xiao Qin and Madam Song being together, but Xiao Qin wants to work hard to save some money so that he can rent a small courtyard to live in and raise two children.
When North Street opened, Qi Xiuyuan and Lu Yao invited a large group of classmates from the academy to show up for the event. This time they had to pay. When the students from Baiyun Academy came to Xiaoji to eat noodles, as long as they wore clothes from Baiyun Academy, Xiao's mother and the others would usually give them a discount and give them a bowl of tofu pudding or something, to increase Xiao Hechuan's popularity and make him feel more at home in the academy.
As usual, Su Yanqing sent a gift for the opening of the business, but surprisingly, there was another gift from the Su Mansion, which was delivered personally by the nanny beside Mrs. Su.
A jade cabbage ornament. “Cabbage” is a homophone for “wealth”, so placing it there will attract wealth.
Her gift made the Xiao family feel flattered, especially Xiao Lanlan, who was excited and a little flustered.
Does Mrs. Su mean that she has completely accepted herself?
That's right, Xiao Lanlan's performance in the girls' school was remarkable. She was diligent and studious, smart, and flexible. The female teachers all praised her highly.
Mrs. Su was very concerned about Xiao Lanlan's performance in the girls' school and often asked people about it. Naturally, she knew that she had excellent abilities. As she asked more and more questions, she always got satisfactory answers, and she became more and more satisfied with Lanlan.
The gift she sent this time was also carefully considered, and it was a hint and sincerity from her to the Xiao family.
Since everyone is happy, why not? As long as Lanlan can have a future with her love, they don't care about Mrs. Su's previous rude behavior. If they take a step back, the world will be broader.
The snack shops on the North Street are very worried and nervous about Xiao Ji's strong entry. Xiao Ji is too popular and cannot suppress them at all, and they have the Su family as their backing.
Su Yanqing always made a big fuss when entering and leaving Xiaoji. Everyone was aware that the Xiao family and the Su family were on good terms, so they chose not to make enemies with the Su family and could only swallow their anger.
They did not dare to find fault or make trouble. The Xiao family's youngest son Hechuan was studying at Baiyun Academy. If he really rose to prominence in the future, they would be even more unable to offend him.
There were dragon and lion dances, firecrackers blasting, and the entrance of the North Street store was bustling with people watching.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, customers officially began to come in. This shop is larger than the one on West Street and can accommodate eight tables. People came in one after another. Jiang Sui distributed the leek and pork pies that he had prepared in advance to everyone, while Xiao Lanlan prepared hot tofu pudding.
This leek and pork pie is also a must-try. The pastry is layered and crispy and fragrant. The filling inside is the same as that for fried dumplings, so it tastes really good.
Immediately, a customer asked if this pie could be made and sold in the future, and eaten for breakfast with a bowl of noodle soup, which would be so delicious.
Since the response was good, Jiang Sui was naturally willing to sell it, but the problem was that her family didn't have enough manpower.
In the workshop, enough sweet potato vermicelli has been dried, and these tofu puddings are all freshly made and sent over by them.
Fortunately, the workshop does not need to grind sweet potato starch every day, otherwise it would not be able to produce so many things.
Facing the guests' booing, Jiang Sui also stood up and responded generously:
"It's our honor and recognition that everyone likes our Xiaoji's food. But we are short of manpower now, so I'm afraid it will take some time before this pie can be served. However, after we stabilize here, we will definitely make this pie for everyone, and the price will not be too expensive. In the future, we will also launch casserole noodles, which taste very good. People who like spicy food and strong taste will definitely like it. Please look forward to it!"
When Jiang Sui was doing business, he exuded a dazzling aura of confidence.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qi Xiuyuan took the lead in applauding, like a real fan.
"Xiao Yixing, you are so lucky. Your sister-in-law is so capable and intelligent. You must cherish her."
"Yes, you are good at both housework and housework, well-educated, dignified and generous, and you are a loving couple. You are really the envy of others. I wonder if we will be so lucky in the future."
Qi Xiuyuan was always so different. He liked to call himself Xiao Hechuan. His classmates envied him from the bottom of their hearts and fantasized that they would be able to find such a satisfactory wife in the future.
Xiao Hechuan was very pleased with their praise for his wife, and he did not hesitate to say anything polite because what they said was absolutely correct.
