These factories all have to work overtime at night, so by around 5:50 p.m., the fast food restaurants are basically done with their work.
By the time He Wenlin finished eating by herself, it was already past six o'clock.
He Wenlin is usually not needed for the finishing touches.
After eating, Dad went to the food factory to make egg roll batter.
To protect the recipe, Mr. He always made sure to shuttle between the factory and the fast food restaurant at the right time.
He Wenlin took stock of the food and raw materials in the fast food restaurant, and called each of the owners to place orders and ask them to deliver the goods.
After hanging up the phone, He Wenlin prepared to return to her rented apartment. She needed to check the accounts at the fast food restaurant and count the money.
"Sis, you're amazing now, you look just like the female bosses on TV," Tang Kai said.
"Study hard and work hard here, and you will become the charismatic Boss Tang from TV."
In his past life, this younger brother didn't do very well. He especially liked to hang out with a group of boys around his age, calling each other brothers. By the time he was in his thirties, he had nothing—no house, no car, nothing.
He's still young and not a bad person, so He Wenlin is thinking of keeping a close eye on him and guiding him well, hoping that he can have a better life.
He Wenlin then said to him, "Do you want to go to the night market? If you do, you can go with Lin Fei, but you must be back to open the shop before 10 o'clock, as we will be selling late-night snacks for a while."
My requirement for you is that you must learn to stir-fry rice noodles within two days, and for fried rice, I hope you can learn within five days.
For rice noodles and rice, you can cook smaller batches at a time and practice more. You can't learn these kinds of skills just by watching; you have to practice a lot.
You must learn how to make dumpling filling and xiaolongbao filling within ten days; that's your focus.
Learning everything at once won't be quick enough, so I'll highlight the key points and tackle them one by one.
This way, He Wenlin can have more time to do other things.
"Sister, I understand. Don't worry, your little brother will definitely be your right-hand man," Tang Kai patted his chest and promised.
"Okay, remember what you said."
Actually, He Wenlin preferred him to work in sales; with his shamelessness and sharp tongue, he's wasted his talents in the kitchen.
"Sis, let's go to the night market together."
"I'm not going. I'm going back to wash up and go to bed. You guys go ahead and be careful."
During this period of rushing to meet orders, He Wenlin gets up early to prepare dumpling and xiaolongbao fillings, and goes to bed earlier as well.
Just as He Wenlin was about to leave, Guo Wenhai arrived.
"Mr. Guo, what brings you here?" He Wenlin welcomed him into the sunshade and said to Lin Fei, "Pour Mr. Guo some water."
"No need to be so polite. Our factory has to work overtime tonight, probably all night. Can you prepare some late-night snacks?"
He Wenlin hadn't received any late-night snack orders from the factory for a long time, but she didn't expect them to come again today. It seems like she can make a good push for today's sales.
He Wenlin said happily, "Of course, late-night snacks are fine. The Bosi Factory and Shirt Factory ordered glutinous rice balls for late-night snacks before, which is also the best-selling item in our shop. Why don't we order those for late-night snacks?"
"And the price?"
"If I sell it to you, Mr. Guo, how can I charge a higher price? You want one for every employee in the factory, right?"
"No, that's not true. Some don't require overtime, but I need to order a total of one hundred."
“Other factories pay 1.7 yuan, one rice ball and one boiled egg per employee. I’ll pay you the same price. Normally, I sell a rice ball for 1.5 yuan, and a raw egg costs 30 cents.”
"No need for the egg, just the rice ball will do. It'll cost 1.2 yuan."
"One dollar and twenty cents is definitely not enough. For a hundred portions, give me one hundred and thirty-six dollars."
One hundred and thirty.
Seeing that He Wenlin was still trying to bargain, Guo Wenhai said, "I've spent so much money here, and you're still haggling over a few dollars."
He Wenlin smiled and said, "Boss Guo, it really isn't making any money."
He then sighed and continued, "Fine, if we don't make a profit, we don't make a profit. After all, you're Boss Guo. But remember to keep it a secret, you won't get this price from anyone else."
“You’ve won, stop complaining about being poor. You’ve only been in business for two months and it’s already this big. Stop complaining about being poor.”
Ever since buying the voucher from He Wenlin and learning about her competence, Guo Wenhai has paid more attention to her. In addition, Zhang Shishi is a relative of his and works as an accountant for He Wenlin, so he is very clear about He Wenlin's revenue and development.
He likes smart and capable people like that.
He Wenlin is still young, but she will surely have an even more extraordinary future!
Guo Wenhai's visit to He Wenlin to order late-night snacks also suggests an intention to make friends.
He Wenlin accepted 130 yuan from him according to the rules, wrote him a receipt, and agreed to deliver it at 10 o'clock.
After seeing Guo Wenhai off, He Wenlin said to Lin Fei and Tang Kai, "You two shouldn't go shopping either. Go and rest for a bit. We need to prepare this around 8:30 tonight. When my second brother comes back, tell him and ask him to come along."
Tang Kai doesn't know anything yet, and there are people coming over for late-night snacks, so the two of them definitely can't handle it all.
As soon as He Wenlin finished speaking, He Shan called. A supermarket nearby was opening tomorrow, and they were working overtime tonight to stock up on goods. She had just ordered 55 servings of hot and sour shredded potato rice bowls from them for a late-night snack, which would be delivered at 11 p.m.
Because I bought a lot at once, I gave them an 88% discount and paid them all.
He Wenlin said happily, "We're really lucky today. We just received a hundred late-night snack orders from Hongda. You guys should come back and rest early, and go over again tonight."
It's not even 7 o'clock yet. The supermarket doesn't need the goods until 11 o'clock, so they can make it over at 9 o'clock and get ready. They can come back and sleep for two hours.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Kai was utterly astonished: "Sis, your business is amazing!"
"Business like this doesn't happen every day; we were just lucky today."
However, when it comes to late-night snacks, He Wenlin feels that business should be good next month.
Because the factory received such a large order, and I heard that the production schedule is very tight, sometimes requiring overtime until the early hours of the morning, Wang Min might also want to order late-night snacks. Even if she doesn't come, I can still try to get her to come.
We were making a late-night snack, so everyone went to bed early to recharge for the upcoming workout!
He Wenlin also got up at 9:15 and went to the shop to help make glutinous rice balls.
Lin Fei has now also mastered speed.
The bag was packed very quickly.
Tang Kai was in stark contrast to him.
No matter how he tried, he couldn't wrap it properly, and Tang Kai was getting really anxious.
"It's okay, just practice slowly," He Wenlin could only encourage.
I originally thought my second brother was the slowest learner, but I didn't expect there were others who were even slower.
He Wenlin and Lin Fei finished making one hundred rice balls before 10 a.m.
He Wenlin sent Lin Fei to deliver the goods, and asked Tang Kai to go with him so that they could get to know each other better.
Just then, the phone rang again, and Peng Liang brought more good news…
