It just so happened that someone came, Shanshui went to greet them, and Cheng Yue went back to the kitchen.
The person who came at this moment was not an acquaintance, nor was he from Taoyuan County. He was exactly the guest on the ship that Cheng Yue had planned.
The Yan River originates from Dingzhou, then passes through Yunzhou, Tuzhou, Qingzhou, Qingzhou and other prefectures, and then flows into the sea from Fuzhou.
There are many boats on the river every day. Those that travel long distances stay on the boat for ten days or half a month. Every time they dock at the pier, the passengers will get off the boat and take a walk around, so the docking time is relatively long.
In Yunzhou, the ship only stopped at Taoyuan County and the provincial capital. As for other counties it passed through, the county towns were far away from the river, so the ship did not stop there.
Most of the people who take the boat are doing business or visiting relatives, and no one takes the boat out for fun.
Therefore, most of the people who got off the boat were one of Cheng Yue’s target customers.
Two taels of silver is indeed a bit too much for an ordinary family to spend on a meal, and that’s just for a few dishes.
But for big merchants who can earn hundreds or thousands of taels on a round trip, they don’t care.
There are also people who are curious and want to see whether the food is worth two taels.
So someone ordered food.
At the beginning, there were only two groups of people. One group was a wealthy businessman and his hired guards, a total of four people.
One group consisted of a family of three who had gone on a long trip to visit relatives and were returning to Dingzhou. Judging from their attire, they looked like they came from a wealthy family.
When the food was served, those who had been waiting to watch couldn't help but order.
At this moment, there were more than twenty customers, and only a few of them ordered colored silk and spicy fish with tofu. Anyway, the rice was free.
The small shop, which was deserted at lunch time, immediately became lively.
"Hahaha, Fatty, give me the full set meal. I won money today, so I'll treat you guys to a good meal!"
After a while, more people from the gambling house came.
The wins and losses of gamblers are quite big, and many people think that if they win today, they may lose tomorrow.
It’s better to eat it.
Moreover, everyone in the gambling house was very familiar with Cheng Yue, so without any hesitation, they determined that what the Cheng family's fat girl made was absolutely a delicacy and definitely worth two taels.
They were used to calling Cheng Yue "Fat Girl" and "Fat Sister", and even if Cheng Yue lost weight, it would take a while for them to change.
Cheng Yue doesn't mind. When she was fat, she would be depressed if you called her Fat Girl. But after she lost weight, if you continued to call her Fat Girl, she would just think of it as a cute nickname.
Tao Yunchuan and Jiang Huiyun did not leave after they finished eating, but waited for Cheng Yue to finish her work.
He had heard that the shop would close at the end of the evening.
…
An hour later, Cheng's private kitchen closed.
Cheng Yue looked at the cash box at the counter and felt very happy.
Fifty-six set meals were sold tonight, including chicken hotpot, colored silk, spicy tofu fish, and two dishes ordered alone.
After deducting the costs, I can make one or two taels of silver for each set meal, and a few hundred coins for each single order. Adding it all up, I probably made more than ninety taels of silver tonight.
This is before the reputation is spread out. Once it is spread out, there will be even more.
Cheng Yue could already imagine how happy Cheng Shun and Jiang would be after knowing this amount.
Her lovely parents probably won’t be able to sleep tonight!
Cheng Wen had already cooked a few dishes and brought them out for everyone to sit down and eat together.
A few kids came over to help during the meal, so the table was still full.
