Chapter 224 Official Opening



Ling Ju took two days to teach Hu Jun and Wu Jian how to make sauce, and also bought a new refrigerator in the store.

The two of them learned quickly. Except that the taste of their first batch was a little lighter, the taste of the subsequent trials was almost the same as Ling Ju's own.

And all the steps were carried out according to what Ling Ju taught.

Detailed rules, including those regarding hygiene, were written and posted on the wall in the kitchen.

Ling Ju ordered 300 half-pound glass jars, filling up the store. She then spent an entire afternoon cleaning and disinfecting each one. The jars are also reusable, and her idea is that customers can bring them back for more.

Just like the state-owned stores selling Erba sauce.

She tweaked the recipe slightly, using a third less beef than she usually does at home, but the overall meat content was still high, with plenty of meaty bits in each bite. She decided to stick with the original version for its spicy flavor.

Even Hu Jun and Wu Jian couldn't help but eat a lot of steamed buns during the break. They said they were delicious and wanted to eat more.

And everything depends on energy sugar. Ten grams of sugar in ten kilograms of sauce is completely enough.

However, she did not tell Hu Jun and Wu Jian that this energy candy was not ordinary white sugar. She put it in a white sugar jar, and it looked no different from ordinary white sugar.

She kept silent about anything involving energy.

The two days of preparation were finally completed. The next three days were the best promotion period. She asked Sun Yun about her experience in opening Sichuan Xiaoxiang and put up a big sign at the door.

But I was in a dilemma when choosing a name for the store.

How could she have forgotten about naming it?

After much thought, she finally chose the most easy-to-understand and catchy name, "Delicious Beef Sauce".

When Song Wei learned of this name, he laughed at it.

But the chef who created the brand has already been found, and the name of the delicious beef sauce store cannot be changed.

After the brand was launched, a food tasting event was held in several nearby communities, which received positive feedback, with many people expressing their intention to buy from the restaurant after the opening.

The five-spice flavor is especially popular. It seems northerners still can't handle it. Ling Ju thinks the spicy sauce from the first recipe is just right. It's not too spicy and has a nice aroma.

The day before the opening, she was extremely excited.

I am excited and worried at the same time.

This was her first time starting a business. She had spent thousands of yuan of her savings on this small shop. The refrigerator alone cost over 2,000 yuan, which was too expensive for her.

At noon that day, she invited Zhang Junmei, Hu Jun, Wu Jian, Zhen Zhen, and Chen Yun to have a meal at Donglaishun.

It can be regarded as a mobilization meeting before the opening. Although Chen Yun is not considered a "gluttonous" employee, he has been helping her run around recently to order bottles, find buyers, and find chefs to make signs and other things. Today's meal will allow everyone to eat as much as they want.

At first, Hu Jun and Wu Jian were a little hesitant, but Zhen Zhen threw the menu in front of them and said, "Juzi said you can order whatever you want, so don't be shy. Just order whatever you want. You're welcome."

"Yes, all kinds of beef and mutton are available. And Aunt Zhang, please don't be polite to me."

Zhang Junmei smiled and said, "I'm fine with anything. Let the young people order."

"Aunt Zhang, do you have any dietary restrictions?"

"No, anything is fine."

"Okay, Zhen Zhen, you and Secretary Chen come over. You know my taste."

"good."

To appease the carnivores, Zhen Zhen and Chen Yun ordered nearly every delicious cut of meat they'd ever eaten at Donglaishun. The lamb shank was firm and chewy, the high-calcium lamb cutlets were thin but had a nice crispy texture, and the fatty lamb slices were a satisfying combination of fat and lean. They also ordered some cabbage, potatoes, and tofu, hand-rolled noodles, and a Beijing-style sesame-flavored sesame pancake. By the time the dishes arrived, the table was overflowing.

Moreover, the meat served at this time is very solid, with at least six or seven taels of meat in a plate.

Unlike later generations, when a plate of meat seems to be a lot, it is actually cut very thinly and is less than 200 grams.

Hu Jun and Wu Jian were both stunned!

"Sister Ling Ju, this Jing City is really impressive! Then the brothers will not be polite!"

"Eat, eat. Here's the dipping sauce, one portion per person. If it's not enough, order more and eat as much as you want."

Wu Jian looked around and realized that Ling Ju was indeed a decent person. She had been eating very well these past few days. "Sister Ling Ju, no, boss, I think this is enough!"

"Okay, let's eat!"

"Wu Jian is right. From now on I'll call Sister Orange the boss!"

Ling Ju really enjoyed what the boss said.

It has to be said that this was the most delicious meal Hu Jun and Wu Jian had had in the past few months, and the word "bashi" was taught to them by Chen Yun.

Ever since they learned this word, "Bashi" has become their catchphrase.

The lunch didn’t take long because Hu Jun and Wu Jian ate a lot and quickly, and making the sauce actually requires a lot of physical strength.

As a boss, appropriate rewards and punishments are necessary.

And this meal was her first reward.

The last table of dishes was cleared and everyone was satisfied. Ling Ju confirmed again and again that everyone present had eaten their fill before paying the bill.

She got up early on the opening day, and when she went out, she found that Chen Chun had also come, and Song Qi also returned home half an hour later.

Seeing how her family members were looking forward to it, she was also very excited, but also a little nervous.

After Song Qi came back, Shen Chuntian, Mei Ling and Dawei accompanied her to the store. She didn't expect that Aunt Zhang would come to help at nine o'clock. Several people were making sauce, and she smelled the fragrance as soon as she entered the door.

Zhen Zhen and Chen Yun were setting up the doorway, ready to set off firecrackers. Everyone had changed into white work clothes and aprons. Aunt Zhang even pulled her hair up and put on a headscarf.
