"May people come and bring prosperity?" Is this name perhaps tailor-made for the shop?
Cheng Yue couldn't help but laugh. Not only Cheng Yue had thought of it, but Chen An and the others had also thought of it.
Not only did they buy a pair of twins, but they also bought a pair of prosperous twins.
It's not that they're superstitious; after all, business people like to hear good things, like "prosperity, prosperity," and it's no wonder they're happy to hear that.
"Lai Xing Lai Wang is a good name, let's change it back!"
Lai Xing and Lai Wang sniffed, moved, and said, "Thank you, Madam!"
Cheng Yue smiled and introduced Zhao Changyong and Zhang Shaowen to each other. They then talked about working at the shop.
"The pastry shop will open in three days. In the meantime, I will show you around. Your job is simple: greet customers, sell goods, and keep accounts."
The monthly wage is 300 coins, which is lower than that of the braised food stall. The wage will be increased later based on your ability.
"As long as you work diligently and conscientiously here, I will never treat you unfairly. But if you try to cheat or do anything that harms the shop's interests, I will not tolerate it."
After finishing her business, Cheng Yue added another sentence.
Although servants with indentures generally do not betray their masters, there are still some things that need to be said in advance.
Lai Xing and Lai Wang immediately said solemnly, "Your Madam is so kind! We will never do anything to betray your kindness!"
They are extremely grateful to have such an easy job, with food, lodging, and wages.
The important thing is that the master and mistress and their family are good people, as can be seen from the fact that they allowed them to change their names back to their own.
Being able to be bought by such a family is already the greatest blessing; how could they dare to have any other thoughts?
Although they could tell that the lady's family was not particularly wealthy, they got along harmoniously, which was far better than those corrupt and filthy aristocratic families.
Serving such a master would surely be a hundred times more comfortable.
Cheng Yue nodded and said nothing more. Some things said may not be true; what matters is whether they can be done. She would just wait and see.
The group exchanged a few more words, and it was getting late. Tiger hadn't yet delivered the contract, and Cheng Yue didn't want to linger, so she instructed Chen Lin:
"In a little while, take the two brothers to their rooms to familiarize them with the shop. Also, someone will be delivering the official deeds later; please accept them. We'll head home now."
The bedroom is fully furnished, so there's nothing to buy. Since we're free today, we'll let the two brothers familiarize themselves with it. We'll be busy tomorrow.
Chen Lin replied, "Okay, Mother, I understand. You can go back now!"
Looking at Lai Xing and Lai Wang, Cheng Yue said, "It's getting late. You two can make do for the night. I'll get you some clothes tomorrow."
The two men's clothes were probably servants' clothes worn in the master's house; they weren't tattered, but they weren't clean either.
If the master commits a crime, he will definitely be sold off immediately; there will be no time to pack his clothes.
The two nodded, blushing. They hadn't bathed in a long time and felt quite smelly. They wondered if the master and mistress could smell it...
Cheng Yue thought for a moment and realized she had nothing to say, so she went home, since she would have to come back early the next morning anyway.
After all, there are still many gift box orders on the way, and she needs to continue to reap the rewards tomorrow.
The next day, Cheng Yue and the others set off early in the morning. As soon as they entered the shop, they saw a car parked in front of the door, and Yu Maodong was sitting in the courtyard talking to Chen Lin.
The manager of Da Shun Zhai certainly wouldn't come to pick up the goods himself, so it's obvious he's bringing her money.
Cheng Yue entered the courtyard and greeted him with a smile, "Manager Yu, it's been a long time! Why did you come to pick up the goods in person?"
Upon hearing Cheng Yue's voice, Yu Maodong quickly stood up, smiled, and cupped his hands in greeting:
"Madam Cheng, please don't laugh at me. I've come here today because my master tasted your pastries and was very satisfied, so he asked me to place an order!"
It has to be said that Cheng Yue is good at business. I heard that she sent all the newly made pastries to everyone in the county, and all the important people in the county came to place orders.
Even those who can't afford it, everyone says that Chengji's boss is generous, and his reputation has spread far and wide.
Their boss is a foodie. He took one bite and immediately decided that all the gifts and favors for this year should be placed through Cheng's. There's no way around it, their food is just so delicious!
That's why we sent him here right away.
Cheng Yue smiled and said, "Manager Yu, please have a seat. What does your master want? How much?"
Yu Maodong had just exchanged a few words with Chen Lin, and hadn't even gotten to the point, when Cheng Yue arrived. Perfect timing!
“Our boss wants a lot: 100 for a braised food gift box, all of them must be spiced, and 120 each for pastries and zongzi.”
Cheng Yue's eyes widened slightly. So many?
The others gasped in shock. The owner of Da Shun Zhai was truly wealthy and powerful; his orders alone exceeded the combined orders of everyone else.
Yu Maodong asked worriedly, "Madam Cheng, is this too much? Can't you make it all?"
It's hot now, and they're celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival soon. Food doesn't keep well, so it's best to make it the day before the festival.
However, the shop has fewer than ten employees in total, which seems to be a bit of a problem.
Furthermore, besides their employer, they also have other orders.
Cheng Yue immediately replied, "Not much, not much, I can make it!"
What a joke! This is a lot of money. You'd be a fool not to make money!
Besides, she still has storage space; she can store as much stuff as she wants.
It's just a matter of doing a few things every day for half a month, not a whole day's work, it's nothing.
Yu Maodong's lips twitched slightly. He always felt that Cheng Yue was afraid he would run away. Her frank love for money was not at all repulsive, but rather full of vitality.
"Alright! Madam Cheng, I'll come to pick it up on the afternoon of the first day of the Dragon Boat Festival!"
Cheng Yue readily agreed and calculated the deposit. Yu Maodong paid the money and then left with the braised food.
Chen Lin murmured, "This is really a huge order..."
Zhao Changyong and Zhang Shaowen were a little dumbfounded. "Sister Cheng, how are we going to make so much in one day?"
They were really having a headache. They definitely couldn't make that much in one day unless they made it in advance, but if they made it in advance, it would all spoil. It was so hot that it wouldn't even keep in the well.
Cheng Yue simply said, "You don't need to make them all in one day. Make more each day, and I have a way to store them, so you don't need to worry."
It's been more than ten days, and Zhang Shaowen racked his brains trying to figure out how to prevent the food from spoiling. But since Aunt Cheng Yue had said so, they would just do it.
Zhao Changyong did think of using ice, but he didn't ask any questions. As long as there was a way, he was fine with it. He was only responsible for doing things in a down-to-earth manner.
As the group was talking, a commotion arose at the shop entrance. Cheng Yue opened the door, and a group of people rushed in.
Well, here comes the money again!
