Chapter 37 A good start (seeking first order) A good start to the red square...
Chapter 37
Seeing that Uncle Lin had followed in the footsteps of his cousin Lin, Lin Mujin simply asked everyone to make fried dumplings.
When you have work to do, you don't have time to daydream.
They brought several large trays to place the pan-fried dumplings.
But this tray takes up a bit of space.
At this time, people started to come in one after another, and the two neighboring stalls also arrived.
Lin Mujin asked her cousin Lin to steam two bowls of hot noodles. After mixing them, she went to talk to her cousin to make good neighborly friends.
"Hello, boss. Let me introduce myself. This is our stall. My last name is Lin, and this is my sister. Please take care of me."
Don't hit a smiling person, just smile more.
"My homemade snacks, try them and give me some feedback."
Lin Mujin and cousin Lin came back with empty bowls. It wasn't that they were stingy and didn't want to reciprocate, but they had just arrived and hadn't started cooking yet.
"It seems OK now. They welcome you with a smile. The one on the left is surnamed Li, and the one on the right is surnamed Zhou."
Lin Mujin briefly spoke to Uncle Lin.
As the old saying goes, time reveals a person’s true character, so we’ll have to wait and see.
"Auntie, customers are coming. Let's steam the dough."
Lin Mujin mixed the dough in a large bowl, took half a plastic bag of disposable cups and chopsticks, and asked her cousin Lin and Lin Muli to go and attract customers.
"Hello, beautiful lady, we're opening a new shop, free samples."
The disposable cup and chopsticks were handed over immediately.
"My shop is called Wutong Food Stall. It's right over there. Yes, next to the one that makes pineapple buns. Feel free to come and try some."
"Eight dollars a bowl, so cheap."
The disposable cup in Lin Mujin's hand was soon used up. Turning around, she saw that Lin Muli was almost finished.
Cousin Lin did not participate, he was doing logistics work with a big bowl of hot noodles.
"Brother, give me a few more disposable cups."
Cousin Lin lowered his voice but couldn't hide his excitement, "Sister, the shop is open!"
Lin Mujin couldn't help but look over and saw someone in front of the shop eating with a bowl in hand.
"Brother, do you think they will like it?"
Now she is a little worried.
He slapped his cheek and muttered quietly, "I really want to do a survey on eating coupons."
Clearing his throat, he said, "Keep going! Keep going!"
Continue to work hard to attract traffic.
After the whole bowl of hot noodles was served, Lin Mujin asked her brothers to go back.
The passenger flow is increasing.
In addition to the attraction of the two popular stalls nearby, the food truck was also surrounded by customers.
I guess many people are just simply curious.
As soon as Lin Mujin got back, she got in the car and helped out. Cousin Lin was indeed a veteran employee of the food stall, her movements were quick and efficient without being flustered.
He didn't forget to greet her, "A bowl of hot noodles and a whole tea egg for ten yuan."
Obviously, these words were said to the uncle who collected the money.
Lin Mujin helped steam the dough and asked her cousin to fry the dumplings.
The big prawn tail on the steamed dumpling was so eye-catching that many people ordered it even though it was not free to try.
"Here, Xiaoli, give it to the guests for tasting."
The tasting activities must continue to be carried out to attract popularity.
People are curious and follow the herd mentality.
The longer the queue, the more people come.
In the past, many shops would hire people to queue up and increase popularity when they opened.
Her family doesn't have any shills, but using some tricks to get these people to stay a little longer is effective.
"Sister, no firecrackers!"
Lin Muli pouted and was about to cry.
Lin Mujin wanted to slap herself. How could she have forgotten such an important thing?
When there were so many customers, she was so busy helping that she didn't think about it anymore.
"It's okay, it's okay, let's set it off at 8:18, it's more auspicious!"
This little incident passed quickly and did not affect the business at all.
More and more people gathered out of curiosity.
Lin Mujin is a little too busy.
The main thing is that the hot noodles and fried dumplings have to be made on the spot, which is a waste of time.
There's nothing we can do about it.
Fortunately, there are very few people who complain.
"Sister, the fried dumplings are sold out!"
Lin Mujin turned her head to look at her cousin, her mouth wide open in surprise.
I raised my wrist and it was just eight o'clock and it was gone?
I quickly looked at the big bucket and saw that there was less than a quarter of rice milk left.
This! This! This!
Too little preparation!
"Ajie quickly explained to the customers that the stall was not well prepared on the first day and the fried dumplings were sold out. She told those who wanted to buy fried dumplings not to wait."
You can’t let the guests wait for a long time only to find that the food is gone. That would only lead to criticism.
He also called cousin Lin and Lin Muli to help explain.
The customers were quite reasonable. There were some complaints, but most of them asked them to stock up next time because they had no fried dumplings and could only buy hot dough.
So the hot noodles were sold out quickly.
The guests dispersed in twos and threes.
Lin Mujin started to take inventory. Half of the vegetarian dishes were left. Most customers were unwilling to order more, probably because the hot noodles came with vegetarian dishes. They preferred to add a whole tea egg, which also cost ten yuan.
There are about ten tea eggs left.
There is the most sour plum soup left. After all, it is still morning and the weather is relatively cool, so it is not the time to drink sour plum soup yet.
"Sister, my cousin and I will go home and mix a bucket of batter, and then go buy some vegetables so that we can continue to sell it at noon."
Cousin Lin grinned, nodded repeatedly, and urged, "Go quickly."
Lin Mujin smiled and said, "There's nothing left to sell. You and Uncle should take a good rest."
Lin Muli came over at this time and said, "Sister, it's out of date again."
Lin Mujin's smile froze on her face. Damn! I forgot again!
He took a deep breath and smiled stiffly, "It's okay, it's okay."
She checked the time and it was already 8:32.
"We'll be released at 8:36."
This time she did nothing but keep an eye on the time to set off the firecrackers before going home.
It doesn't matter these few minutes.
"One minute left, get ready."
Lin Mujin immediately hid in the food truck and continued counting, "Thirty seconds, twenty seconds, nineteen... three, two, one! Release!"
Cover your ears immediately.
Then a crackling sound was heard.
There were only a thousand firecrackers and they were all gone very quickly.
Lin Mujin pressed the mask down to make it tighter. The smell of gunpowder was quite pungent.
"Xiao Li, take a broom and sweep up the broken firecrackers." After giving the instructions, Lin Mujin was about to leave with her cousin as they were in a hurry.
Lin Muli pouted and said, "I want to go buy groceries, too."
Cousin Lin said, "I'll sweep the floor."
Lin Mujin pointed at the bicycle and said, "Just one."
Lin Muli immediately said, "I'll sit on the front beam."
Lin Mujin turned her head and said, "Go ask Brother."
It's not her who is riding the bike, so it's her cousin who decides whether to carry one or two people.
Cousin Lin agreed with a smile.
Lin Mujin naturally had no objection. Although Lin Muli was young, he was capable of doing many tasks. With him around, he could share some of the burden and the work would be faster.
My mind unconsciously thought of Porter’s explosive start in the morning. I really didn’t expect it.
Actually, I thought business would be good, but I didn’t expect it to be this good.
Hehehe… A good start to the new year…
