Wu Qiao was very surprised when he received the call from the other party, after all, it was a bit early at this time.
"Auntie, is there something urgent that you called me so early?"
Lian Meiying finally felt relieved after hearing Wu Qiao's voice.
"Qiao Qiao, you have to help your aunt."
After asking carefully, I found out that the hospital was temporarily hosting a visiting medical team from Country Y.
Arrived at 9:30 am and left at 5 pm.
We can't neglect others. If there is lunch, there must be dessert.
Originally, the hospital handed this matter over to the only five-star hotel in Bincheng, but the cake maker who made the Western pastry fell ill and was hospitalized.
To be honest, the cakes in other hotels are not authentic and the taste is not genuine, but we cannot bring shame to our great country.
So, Lian Meiying thought of Wu Qiao.
“One hundred small cakes, just the kind you made for me, and we’ll pay you one and a half dollars each, because it’s a rush job. If the customer is satisfied, there’ll be a reward.
The time is a bit tight, it must be delivered before 2pm."
In fact, this price is still low. In a five-star hotel, they charge fifty yuan for each cake.
Of course, Lian Meiying was not aware of this matter. All the quotations came from the Ministry of Finance. Because of this incident, Lian Meiying was angry with Wu Qiao afterwards.
You can bully anyone, but how can you bully your own daughter-in-law?
But right now, Wu Qiao is very happy to get such a big business.
There are one hundred cakes, each costing thirty yuan, which is three thousand yuan. After deducting the profit, you can still make fifteen hundred yuan.
In 1999, that was equivalent to many people's monthly salary, and this was just what she earned in one day.
"Okay, don't worry, it will be delivered before two o'clock."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Qiao woke up his mother and younger brother.
The three of us can work faster together, especially when it comes to making jam, which is a delicate job and was left to my mom.
The cake base is easy to make and using a dough mixer is not tiring.
Because each cake is very small, ten centimeters long and five centimeters high, a large piece of cake base can make at least 20 cakes.
The second-layer oven can bake two cakes at a time.
Do this three times, and you'll have enough for a total of six cake bases.
And this is only the amount on the order. There are other customers' orders as well, so Wu Qiao can only deal with them later. In short, today will definitely be a very busy day.
At around nine o'clock, all three ovens of cake dough were finished. Wu Qiao began to cut them into pieces and then whipped cream on them.
This cream is made by hand and has some ingredients added to it, which is different from traditional cream.
Because it is mixed with some vanilla flavor, it is particularly non-greasy and tastes good. It will not feel sweet if you eat too much.
Applying cream to the cake is a delicate job, and it is indeed tiring for Wu Qiao to do it alone, especially since he has to make all kinds of decorations. His waist becomes sore after just bending for a while.
Jiang Rong had been paying attention to her daughter's movements. She hurried over and brought a chair.
"Just sit down and do it. It'll be slower, but at least it won't be so tiring. I'll help you apply the cream."
She can still do this kind of work.
Since time was indeed tight, Wu Qiao did not object.
I took the time to make another batch of cake dough, after all, there were many other customers waiting.
It was exactly half past one when the hundred cakes were packed.
Wu Qiao packed all the pastries in a foam box and took a taxi with his brother to the city center hospital.
When they arrived at the City Center Hospital, before getting off the car, Wu Qiao saw Lian Meiying anxiously pacing back and forth at the main entrance.
