Chapter 216: Wealth and Prosperity
Song Liyun can offer advice and come forward when something big happens, but the rest of the time there still needs to be someone who can read and keep accounts at the front desk.
Moreover, Captain Luo said that he would let him play with Tianxiang Tower, and he was generous in dividing the profits between the two sides, splitting the profits 50-50, and letting the people in the garrison manage the accounts. Not bad!
Lin Tao looked at the account book in front of him with a look of surprise.
When he was in the garrison, he was a small flagman in a large fleet. Normally, when transporting military rations and supplies, he had to exchange lists, and the number of items on and off the vehicle had to be checked according to regulations.
Just now when he was buying vegetables, he habitually took out a piece of charcoal and counted on a small wooden board the size of a palm. He didn't expect that Miss Song would hand over the accounting work to him.
Zhou Xiang and I had long wanted to retire from the army and become military households, but we never expected it to come so soon.
"This..." Lin Tao was excited, but still a little hesitant. Without Captain Luo's order, he couldn't accept it rashly.
Song Liyun knew that the garrison had to arrange for the sergeant's position, so she smiled and said, "Brother Lin, just take it with peace of mind. I will go to Captain Luo to report it. I think the Captain will agree."
Lin Tao's brows immediately lit up: "Thank you very much for your support, young lady!"
Because today is the second day of Tianxianglou's opening, just as it was time for dinner, Sun Wencheng's barbecue team made a grand appearance with their dazzling brilliance.
Compared to yesterday, there were more onlookers, but Sun Wencheng and others had steady hands, skillfully flipping the skewers over the charcoal fire, and even showing off their fancy moves.
People passing by can feel the hot aroma and spicy passion without having to get close.
Two guys stood on high stools, carrying copper basins and banging on them, shouting, "Free, free, this is a rare opportunity!"
"Half-price promotion, limited time only!"
Tianxiang Tower was magnificent. In the past, ordinary people wouldn’t even dare to look at it more than once when walking by, let alone the crowds of onlookers.
Now it has been forced to become like a vegetable market, extremely crowded, and anyone can come and take a walk around.
Someone came here yesterday, but only tried the new food and it didn't satisfy their craving at all. Now they are not fighting with others for the free samples that they can only take one bite of.
He went straight to the store, pointed at the neatly arranged dishes, and said majestically: "This, this, this, and this, grill them all for me! And bring two jugs of your wine, too."
The waiter in the shop sang: "Six tables in the hall are full of flowers! Wealth comes in pairs!"
The waiters at Tianxianglou are well versed in the gimmicks of ordering dishes, and even though it is only the second day of opening, they can still call out the names of dishes in a pleasing way.
In the private room on the second floor that had not yet been opened, Manager Wan listened attentively for a while and then closed the wooden window. The deafening noise outside immediately subsided.
He turned to look at the woman sitting across from him, his face full of admiration, and said, "Miss Song, this is another way to make money! But many people still say that selling only grilled food is a waste of prime location."
There is also a less pleasant saying: It is shameful to have some men flirt with each other outside.
He couldn't say this out loud.
Tianxianglou only sells simple grilled food, which is obviously not in line with the reputation of this restaurant.
However, Manager Wan Da knew the situation of Tianxiang Tower, and it was no exaggeration to say that it was surrounded by enemies on all sides.
Those people did not fight head-on like Hong Jingtian did at the beginning, but wanted to leave Song Liyun without food and people, as if she was trapped to death in a barren desert.
A restaurant not only does not have a famous chef, but it doesn't even have a chef who can prepare a banquet. How can it be considered a banquet?
Many times, outsiders can't help much in this kind of business competition.
Especially since he is in the fur business, which has nothing to do with the catering industry, the most he can do is to take his friends out for a meal or two.
I thought Song Liyun would at least go to the provincial capital to find someone to hire a chef, but I didn't expect Song Liyun to just ask for help buying some simple items such as grain, oil, rice and noodles, and then turned the whole street upside down.
He did not appear in Tianxiang Tower yesterday, and he heard people all over the city talking about Tianxiang Tower.
Some people say it's good, some say it's bad, but most people say that it's a good restaurant, but it's full of smoke and fire and serves some grilled food that is not presentable.
Song Liyun had been mentally prepared for this reaction and smiled faintly, "It's great that someone said that. At least everyone knows that Tianxianglou has reopened, and it has also been clearly stated that it offers affordable and high-quality grilled food. Anyone can come and sit down and have something to eat.
I also saved myself the expense of hiring those hangers-on to promote the product."
As for what others said about selling male beauty, Zhou Xiang and others also heard it.
Sun Wencheng and the others didn't care: it was just envy and jealousy.
Song Liyun didn't care even more.
Before the end of the world, there were many macho barbecue restaurants with handsome men and beautiful women singing and dancing.
Some people criticize him, some love him, but it doesn’t affect his making a lot of money.
Just like someone said, "black fans are also fans", as long as it can boost popularity.
If you want to stand out, you will inevitably be criticized and criticized by others.
Manager Wan laughed heartily: "That makes sense! That makes sense!"
Tianxiang Tower has always been a hot topic known to everyone in Qili County. Any slight movement will cause a sensation in the whole city. Now Song Liyun's actions have aroused everyone's great curiosity.
If we were selling ordinary meals, there wouldn't be such a scene.
No wonder everyone says that the name Tianxianglou is unlucky, but Song Liyun still continues to use it exactly as it is, because she wants to gain popularity.
Manager Wan sighed inwardly: "Alas! What a waste of this brain! It would be so great if it fell into my family."
In his mind, he once again went through the sons and nephews in his family who were suitable for marriage, and had to choose a suitable match.
But there is still a long time, so there is no need to rush!
Wan Daguanshi took a bite of the crispy, tender, and spicy barbecue on the table and said with a smile, "It's a pity that such a delicacy can't be opened in the capital. If I want to eat it in the future, I have to come to Qili County."
Although the name Tianxianglou is used to attract attention, the taste of the barbecue is unique and it is even more rare for those foodies.
However, Tianxianglou is the income of the garrison, and the people who barbecue and serve dishes outside are all soldiers of the Suijin Guard, so they will definitely not open the store in the provincial capital.
Manager Wan wants to invest in a barbecue restaurant.
Indeed, there is no such thing as too much money.
Song Liyun pursed her lips and smiled. She was the same. As long as she had the secret seasoning, she could open a barbecue shop anytime and anywhere.
There are still three months until the fur season in late autumn, so this time cannot be wasted.
"Uncle Wan, what do you think of this?" Song Liyun took out a plain handbag from the paper box beside her.
When he saw what it was, Wan Daguanshi's eyes suddenly lit up: "This is sheepskin!"
When traveling, cowhide and sheepskin bags are the best items to use for carrying things. They are sturdy, durable and easy to pack, but they cannot hold delicate items.
But the handbag in front of her was made of sheepskin, one foot long and as wide as a palm. It had a smooth color and, most importantly, was square, just like a paper box.
Song Liyun unfastened the clasp on the handbag and showed the structure inside to Wan Daguanshi: "This is a handbag. You can hang it on your belt, or you can use this short strap to wrap around your wrist and hang it in the crook of your arm. You can also use the long strap to hang it around your neck."
As she spoke, she demonstrated how to use the handbag on herself: "I want to put things in it, and it's convenient to take things out..."
Before she could finish, the impatient Wan Dashi urged her, "Miss Song, you've said so much, why don't you let me see it first!"
As he spoke, he reached out and snatched it away and started flipping through it.
