Chapter 54: Money-obsessed Zhao Sanzhu (1/2)



As soon as Master Han saw the servant, he said with a sour face, "I'm tired of eating food from the mansion and the restaurant every day. The real delicacies are hidden in the streets and alleys. I'll save one for dinner and take the other to give to the old man. He has never tasted such delicious braised meat in his life. Consider it my filial piety to him."

My young master and the master have always had bad tempers. They have a small quarrel every three days and a big quarrel every five days. The best way is not to see each other. It is rare for the young master to show filial piety to the master.

Although Master may not eat it, it is still a token of his good intentions.

Zhao Taoqin had a general understanding of this Mr. Han—he was some landlord's silly, greedy son!

“I like to come here often.”

"I must come often."

Only then did they send the impetuous Young Master Han away.

The next half bucket was also sold very smoothly. Almost no one could resist the delicious food sold on the streets. Some people even liked the food so much that they specially ordered some for Qianwan to keep.

"Okay, okay, I've got it all..."

It only took half a day to sell out the whole bucket.

Zhao Sanzhu began his accounting again, muttering to himself, "A barrel of cooked food weighs fifty jin, pork weighs a pound, plus firewood, seasonings, carriages, and horses, all for fifty wen. We sell it for seventy wen, making a profit of twenty wen per jin, so we've made a thousand wen."

Zhao Sanzhu's brows were almost dancing.

He's simply a little money-grubber.

For example, yesterday, we were giving it away as a gift, testing the market with a low price, and finally offering it for free. So today is a really good day for making a profit.

On the other hand, Zhang Dayong's business has been going on for half a day and there is still no sign of opening.

At this moment, Zhang Dayong seemed to have been ruthlessly ruined by fate again. He became listless. He originally thought that their business would be good after the Zhao family sold out.

But when the Zhao family really sold out, there were even fewer people who rebelled.

"Brother Li, we've sold everything and are closing the stall. Goodbye," Zhao Sanzhu said hello to Zhang Dayong and the others before leaving.

The air was dead silent.

In fact, Zhao Taoying really wanted to persuade Zhang Dayong that he would never be able to do business if he just blindly followed the trend. But she thought that if she said it, Zhang Dayong would probably hate her even more.

I feel like she doesn't have back pain when she talks while standing.

It's very dad-like.

I just turned around and left without saying anything.

What the Zhao siblings didn’t know was that not long after they left, it was already noon, the temperature rose, and the pedestrians on the street had all gone home.

At this time, a middle-aged shopkeeper came over and asked, "Is this the street where your braised pork was so popular yesterday? Are you from Hexi Village?"

Zhang Dayong's face, as stiff as a frost-bitten eggplant, suddenly stiffened slightly and said, "Yes, from Hexi Village, you want to..."

"I heard your meat is delicious. Several old customers have recommended it to me. Do you have any more?"

“Sold out.”

For some unknown reason, Zhang Dayong said this. My cousin wanted to correct him, but he was held down by him.

"Sold out? Oh, I knew I couldn't eat it anymore, but it doesn't matter. If you are free tomorrow, you can deliver it to me. I'm from the Jixianglou in front. Are you free?"

The shopkeeper asked.

"I'm free, I'm free. How much do you want?" Zhang Dayong's heart was pounding. It had never been beating so fast since he was born.

"How much is a bucket?"

"This is a small bucket, about 30 kilograms."

"Okay, thirty kilograms. Send it directly to me tomorrow, Jixianglou. Remember, don't send it to the wrong place," said the shopkeeper.

This braised meat seems to be in great demand. It would be troublesome if the wrong one was delivered. He has run so many restaurants that he has vaguely sensed a business opportunity.

Wait until the shopkeeper leaves.
