Chapter 155: Explanation
There are far more customers coming to eat in the evening than at noon, and several tables are reserved by customers who come to eat at noon.
We ordered all the fish that Zhao Laowu and his team delivered yesterday in just one day today.
Half of the loaches delivered were also sold.
At this time, Zhang Jing was fiddling with the abacus to do the math.
Zhao Yi had dinner with Li Chao, Peng Yiju, Li Fang, his second brother Zhang Xiang, and his second sister-in-law Chen Fen.
The daily turnover was 75 yuan. According to Zhao Yi's half-and-half profit plan, that would be 37.5 yuan. Zhang Jing was very happy at this moment.
"Master, looking at the situation, my second brother and his wife can't handle it alone. Just like today's situation, we have to hire two young girls to help. We also have a place to live.
The house near my garment factory has been empty and no one lives there, so I let my second brother and his wife live there, and this side is for the young girl I recruited to live in. ”
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and said.
In fact, these words were also said to Chen Fen. There are six brothers and sisters in Chen Fen's family. Zhao Yi has two younger sisters who have not yet started a family and are only fifteen or sixteen years old.
It's a good opportunity for me to come here and help for a few years before talking about getting married.
"So what do you think is a suitable salary?"
Zhao Yi asked.
"Fifteen dollars a month."
Zhang Jing said.
Chen Fen and Zhang Xiang didn't say anything at the dinner table, for fear that Zhao Yi and Zhang Jing had already chosen someone for such a good thing, not to mention that there were several outsiders here.
After the meal, everyone got up and left.
Only then did Chen Fen come to Zhang Jing who was about to leave.
"Little sister, there is something I want to discuss with you. You want to ask someone to help you out. My two sisters are very hardworking and don't eat much. Do you think it's okay?"
Chen Fen looked at Zhang Jing with a hint of pleading in her eyes.
After being married to the Zhang family for so many years, Chen Fen has never gone to help her parents' family when there was any good thing in the Zhang family. At most, she would send some gifts over during the holidays. Now that such a good thing has happened, Chen Fen also wants to help her parents' family.
With an income of thirty yuan a month, even if one has to give ten yuan to the village as full work points, a total income of twenty yuan a month is still earned.
"You take care of the arrangements for Second Sister-in-law. Brother Yi also has something to tell me. It would be best if you can ask your brother to come as well."
Zhang Jing smiled and patted Chen Fen's hand.
Chen Fen was very happy to hear this.
"Oh, sister-in-law, you don't have to go back. Brother Yi has told Li Chao that he will pass by the commune when he goes back to haul coal. He asked his father, Uncle Li, to go to Chenjia Village to inform your family."
Zhang Jing smiled.
Back home.
The two little ones have gone to bed a long time ago.
"With a business like this, the meat can't keep up."
Zhang Jing looked at Zhao Yi and said with some concern.
There are 60 kilograms of venison. 20 kilograms of the braised ones were sold out in one day yesterday. At this rate, all the 120 kilograms of meat will be sold out in three days.
It’s okay now, the meat can be stored, but when it gets hot, the meat can’t be stored, especially when it is sent from such a far place, the meat will go bad long ago.
Even if the pork is slaughtered immediately, it will already have flavor in the afternoon.
"You don't need to worry about this. I've already thought of it. Look what this is?"
Zhao Yi took out all the tickets for selling pigs. He had not used these tickets over the years. He prepared these tickets for emergencies. What's more, those hunters knew better than Zhao Yi how to process the meat for storage.
I guess it won't break in two or three days.
But the taste is definitely not as good as fresh ones.
early morning.
Li Chao drove to the commune, parked next to the commune, and asked the tractor driver to take him back to Wangou Village.
Li Chao didn't spend a penny asking the tractor driver to deliver him things. After all, the tractor driver often asked him to bring things and they were quite familiar with each other.
Went straight to Zhao Laowu's house.
"Hey, how come Driver Li has time to come back?"
Zhao Laowu joked.
In fact, I was quite envious of Li Chao. He was a driver that everyone envied. It was so cool to drive a truck.
"Old Five, Brother Yi has something to tell you. The fish is delivered every day, so it's best to start today. The same goes for the meat. If the weather is hot, ask them to help process it."
After Li Chao finished speaking, he went straight back to his home without waiting for Zhao Laowu to answer.
His relationship with Zhao Yi made him not bother to find out where Zhao Laowu and his men got the meat.
What's more, he had no shortage of meat to eat, and Zhao Yi's family never forgot about him when there was anything delicious.
"We are back, where is my eldest grandson?"
Li Dequan asked when he saw Li Chao walk into the courtyard.
"Dad, I came back by myself. Xiaoyi has something to ask you to go to Chenjia Village and ask Chenfen's brothers and sisters to go to the district. You send them to the commune. I will pass by or other colleagues will take them there."
Li Chao explained.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
After listening to his son's explanation, Li Dequan immediately got up and rushed towards Chenjia Village.
In Li Dequan's heart, Zhao Yi is the benefactor of his family. If it weren't for Zhao Yi, he wouldn't be able to live such a glorious life today. His daughter and daughter-in-law are both workers that everyone envy, and his son is even a driver.
Hearing that it was Zhao Yi's request, Li Dequan did not delay.
Li Chao left Wangou Village.
Zhao Laowu called Liu Qi over, and the two families sat in the house to discuss the matter.
"Fish is easy, we can just put a few more fish baskets, but what about the meat?"
Liu Qi asked.
"I've thought about this, and I can only tell Mr. Shen and the others and ask them to help with the hunting."
Zhao Laowu thought for a while and said.
"Why don't we go to Yellow Eagle Cliff? There is also a hunter village over there."
Liu Qi's wife looked at the two people who were struggling and said.
"That's all we can do."
Zhao Laowu nodded.
Huangying Cliff is closer than Qixingao, but the road there is really difficult to walk on. The two men asked their wives to put fish baskets at home. If that doesn't work, they can go to Xiahe Village to collect a few fish. They can't delay Zhao Yi's business.
The two of them set off towards Huangying Cliff, carrying their backpacks.
noon.
The restaurant is obviously busier than yesterday at noon. Even with shared tables there are still customers waiting in line. But as it is too busy the only options are to wait until the evening or make a reservation.
Li Mingzhu found Zhao Yi.
"Xiao Yi, you see there is no room for everyone in this room. Your business is doing well, why don't you hire a carpenter to build a small room next door and put two tables there?"
Li Mingzhu gave Zhao Yi some advice.
In fact, the area inside the restaurant is not small, but the round tables take up more space. There is space for four large round tables. If it were a rectangular table, three rows of three tables in each row could be arranged without being crowded.
But after lunch, some customers would make reservations for the evening reception, and the number of people invited would start from ten, which would be inconvenient without a large round table, so five more tables were booked today.
They could only follow Li Mingzhu's advice and ask a carpenter to build a small room next to the department store and put six rectangular tables in the cafeteria.
This is convenient for customers who just want to order a dish of cold pork skin to go with their wine after get off work.
Otherwise, if they occupy the table, others will have to share it with them.
