Chapter 301 The Best Aunt in the Period Literature 22
The day before the store opened, Su Li took Su Ying back to the village.
The main reason they came back this time was to pack up the things they didn't take away last time and move them to the county, and to say hello to the village chief's family.
This is to prevent the villagers from not seeing their family for a long time and causing the village chief and his family to worry.
In the past few years, Su Li has gotten along well with the village chief's family, especially with Sister Haixia (the village chief's daughter-in-law). They are not only partners in working in the fields, but also good friends to chat with.
Su Li and his family of three moved to the county town. As for the house in Chenjia Village, Su Li did not give up the lease, considering that he would return to Chenjia Village occasionally in the future.
The opening day happened to be a Saturday and there were a lot of people because Su Li asked Xiao Zhang from the store to go to the streets to promote the store a few days in advance.
In addition, on the opening day, they have a free tasting event in the store, and all purchases in the store today are 20% off.
Su Li asked Xiao Zhang to move a table to the door of the store and put the braised dishes that Su Ying had made last night and some side dishes on the table.
As soon as the dishes are served, the aroma is so fragrant that you can swallow your tongue.
Many people came up curiously and asked if it was really a free trial?
Xiao Zhang answered enthusiastically: "Yes, today is the first day of our store opening. Here are the braised ears, braised pig tails, spicy chicken, cold rabbit...
They are all free for everyone to taste, but the quantity is limited, first come first served! "
When everyone heard that they could really eat for free, the brave ones rushed forward and asked Xiao Zhang to use a toothpick to pick out a piece of what he wanted to taste.
"Is this called cold-cooked rabbit? Do they have it in the store?"
Xiao Zhang said enthusiastically: "Yes, if you think it's delicious, you can come into the store and take a look. We also have pickled fish, boiled fish, twice-cooked pork, and braised pork..."
Because there were too many people, each person could only try one piece. After trying the food, many people were tempted and went into the store to order one or two dishes.
There were also those who hadn't tasted it and felt uncomfortable and wanted to make trouble, but they were all conquered by Su Li's performance of "breaking rocks with bare hands".
The dishes Su Ying cooks are all home-cooked dishes, but they are all delicious and tasty thanks to her excellent cooking skills.
After the dishes ordered by the customers are served, people passing by the restaurant will smell the tempting aroma, and those with a little money in their pockets will come in and order one or two dishes.
Business was booming on the opening day. If Su Yang hadn't taken a day off to help out in the store, Su Li and the other three would have been too busy to handle the business.
After finishing their work in the evening, the family of three gathered together to count the money and found that they had earned nearly one hundred yuan in a day.
Su Ying exclaimed: "We made a hundred yuan today, so we can make about... three thousand yuan a month, which is a year..."
Su Yang answered first: "Thirty-six thousand, that's thirty-six thousand a year!"
"Oh my god, won't we all be millionaires in two or three months? Haha...we're rich!"
The brother and sister were so excited that their mouths almost reached the back of their heads from laughing!
They never dreamed of such a huge amount of money!
They thought that if they only earned two or three dollars a day, they would make eighty or ninety dollars a month, which was more than the two-month salary of those workers. They didn't expect that this was completely beyond their imagination!
Su Li listened quietly to the brother and sister imagining the future. She was not surprised at all that they earned a hundred yuan today.
Food is the most important thing for people. No matter in which era, the love of food is the biggest characteristic of the Chinese people. The pursuit of delicious food is engraved in their genes.
I saw the brother and sister were still talking about preparing more ingredients for tomorrow, so that they wouldn't run out of ingredients when so many people came to the store in the evening like today.
"Don't be too happy too soon. Today is the first day of our promotion. Everyone is just looking for something new. Future business may not be as good as today!
Besides, if we're too busy like today every day, we might as well just sell lunch from now on!"
Su Ying didn't care and said, "I don't feel tired at all. This is much easier than working in the fields in the village!
Moreover, even if business isn't as good as it is today, and I only make 30 yuan a day, that's still more than others can make in a month!"
Su Yang grinned and suddenly said, "Mom, why don't I stop going to school?"
Su Li looked up at him and found that he was serious, so he raised his hand and slapped him.
"If you don't go to school, what do you want to do?"
Su Yang said confidently, "Of course I came back to help! The store is so busy, how can you and your sister handle it?"
Su Li was so angry at his excuse that she laughed, "So Sister Wang and Xiao Zhang are not human beings, right?"
Although she planned to let her adopted son do business, she was so cruel as to force him to give up his studies and come back to earn money.
Su Ying said, "Brother, Mom is right. You should study hard. Mom and I will take care of the store. If we are too busy, we will hire someone else to help!"
"I'm already 20 years old and only in the first year of high school. Even if I get into college, I'll be 26 when I graduate. Mom, I'm a grown man, I can't always be supported by you and your sister, right?
Besides, I won’t be able to get into university with my grades, and I don’t want to end up like those ungrateful people who have to repeat their studies year after year.”
Seeing that he spoke very clearly, Su Li held his forehead. It might be that the two children really started school too late, and they were somewhat out of tune with their classmates at school, and they both had a resistance to studying.
Su Ying was unwilling to repeat her studies, perhaps because she really had no interest in learning. However, Su Yang did not want to study simply because he felt he was too old and only wanted to make money to support his family.
Su Li was very open-minded about this matter. If the brother and sister were willing to go, they could go. If they really didn't want to, she wouldn't force them.
The original owner's wish was just to have enough food and clothing for the two children. Now it seems that the two of them will neither be hungry nor cold!
In the end, Su Yang came back to help in the store.
However, Su Li did not agree to let him drop out of school. She went to the school to discuss with the principal and decided to retain Su Yang's student status. He only needed to go back to take the exams when the school had them.
After Su Yang came back to help, Su Li handed over the purchasing and customer service responsibilities in the store to him. She only needed to collect money in the store and help serve dishes when it was busy.
The business in the store was indeed as Su Li said, not as good as the first few days, but there was a group of repeat customers, and the daily income was also considerable.
Half a year passed slowly.
That day, a young girl with fashionable clothes and curly hair came into the store. Next to her stood a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties and had a face full of acne.
As soon as the girl came in, she arrogantly shouted, "Waiter, bring us all your signature dishes." Then she said coquettishly to the man next to her, "I'm so tired of playing with you today, I'm starving now!"
