Shu Hui smiled: "What kind of killer move is it that you can't even tell your mother?"
"A finishing move is called a finishing move because it's only useful at crucial moments! Mom, it's not crucial yet, so I can't tell you."
The more Shu Hui asked Chu Yu, the more mysterious she became, deliberately whetting everyone's appetite. Shu Hui said she was a funny girl.
Deng Fangping was filled with confidence by Chu Yu's words. Liao Xiumei and Shu Jiandang both felt that Shu Hui and her three daughters were a burden. She thought it was just a matter of adding a few more pairs of chopsticks. The family was already poor, so they were not afraid of becoming poorer.
Who would have thought that this niece would be such a golden goose, coming up with one brilliant idea after another? She had just taught them how to make roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and raise quails, and now she's come up with the idea of a visual kitchen!
What other killer moves does she have...?
Deng Fangping must be laughing in her sleep.
Shu Jiandang is just pretending to be clever. He tried to sell roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) like them, but little did he know that it was Chu Yu's idea to sell roujiamo. If Shu Jiandang knew about this, I wonder if he would regret keeping Chu Yu out of the house?
Shu Aiguo held old-fashioned ideas, believing that a snack shop could be opened simply by buying two old tables, but Chu Yu offered a different perspective.
Shu Aiguo calculated the renovation costs: three large buckets of paint would be enough, seven tables with benches on both sides of each table, and a total seating capacity of over thirty people when full. A snack shop can't have too many customers; thirty or so at a time would be considered very popular.
The wooden bar counter in the kitchen doesn't cost much. He just cut some wood from Shanguan Village, sanded it, and sealed it with varnish. The glass, however, needs to be purchased from a glass shop. In total, it only costs about a hundred yuan to complete the renovation.
Thinking about it this way, the so-called visual kitchen did not increase the renovation cost, but after adding the visual kitchen, it not only had a gimmick but also the confidence to retain customers. By doing both dine-in and takeout, it could offend no customer!
As the first snack shop in Deyang to do this, it would be strange if it didn't become popular!
Uncle Shu got more and more excited as he thought about it, "Uncle Shu will go find Wood tomorrow!"
Uncle Shu loves woodworking and always keeps dry wood at home, but this is not enough. He wants to make a desk and bookcase for Chu Yu. How can a student who is about to enter his senior year of high school not have a decent desk?
We can't exactly expect her to read and write on a greasy dining table, can we?
"Chu Yu, your second uncle wants to make you a desk and a bookcase. Do you have a style you like?"
High school seniors need plenty of study materials, and if there's anything Chu Yu finds difficult to adjust to after transmigrating, it's that she doesn't have a desk of her own.
In the early 1980s, the average living space per person was small. Families often squeezed into a small room of 20 or 30 square meters. Having their own bed was a luxury, let alone a desk.
Chu Yu was staying at her second uncle's house and didn't want to cause them any trouble, so she hadn't dared to say anything. She never expected her second uncle to bring it up on his own initiative.
After a moment's thought, she picked up a pen and drew a sketch on the paper.
The rental apartment is small, so it's not suitable to make the desk and bookcase separately. It's better to make them into one unit.
Chu Yu finished drawing the picture very quickly.
Uncle Shu was speechless when he saw the sketch.
His serious expression made Chu Yu doubt whether her sketch was too abstract and difficult to realize.
"Second Uncle, is it difficult to make? If it's too hard, then forget it. Just make me a desk."
Making a complete table is indeed more difficult than making a separate table, but it's not impossible. Shu Aiguo remained silent because he thought his niece was incredibly resourceful!
There are four rows of bookshelves on the desk, which can be used to store books and school supplies. There are also shelves under the desk, and a small cabinet for storing miscellaneous items next to the right leg.
With a desk, a bookcase, and a storage cabinet, it only takes up the space of a desk, making it both beautiful and practical in the home, without taking up any space at all.
Even Shu Aiguo, a woodworking enthusiast, was amazed by Chu Yu's design.
"Where did you see such a beautiful table?"
Chu Yu couldn't very well say that she used a similar desk when she was in high school, could she?
"I saw a guy selling Hong Kong City magazines at a stall a few days ago. I saw it in the magazine. Although there are very few designs like this in mainland China, I think this design doesn't take up much space and is very suitable for students." Chu Yu lied.
Uncle Shu thought to himself that things in Hong Kong are fashionable and different from those in the mainland. The mainland is still in the stage of pursuing practicality, while things in Hong Kong pursue both practicality and good appearance. When people in the mainland become rich, will they become as fashionable as people in Hong Kong?
Uncle Shu left with the sketch, and Chu Yu continued reciting her lessons; she had already gone through the political texts twice.
She has a trick for memorizing: no matter what she's memorizing, whether it's vocabulary, biology, or politics, she always sets aside a day to quickly memorize the entire book.
After memorizing it, you'll have a general impression in your mind. Then, go back and memorize it a second time. After the second memorization, have someone quiz you on it or test your memory on it. Mark the parts you're not familiar with.
After memorizing it twice, she would have a general impression in her mind, and she could then use practice questions to fill in any gaps in her knowledge.
Chu Yu used this method in her previous life no matter what kind of exam she encountered, and it was quite practical for her.
After memorizing the material twice, you can start doing practice questions. Chu Yu doesn't have any senior high school practice questions at home.
The next morning, Chu Xiang, while tending her stall, rode her bicycle to the bookstore near the entrance of Dezhong Middle School, intending to buy two review books.
There were only a few types of practice questions on the market. Chu Yu glanced through them and bought two sets of books based on her intuition. Carrying the books, she prepared to return to the department store, but saw a group of people in work uniforms gathered in front of the snack shop.
One person held a booklet to write down the information, while two others measured the dimensions on the ground. They used an iron shovel to draw two dots with lime, fixed the white line covered in lime, and then flicked it on the ground.
