Song Liyun can offer advice and only step in when something big happens, but the rest of the time someone who can read and write and keep accounts needs to be at the front desk.
Moreover, Luo Baihu said he would let him play with Tianxianglou, and the profit split between the two sides would be generous, with the profits split 50/50, and the garrison would manage the accounts. That's acceptable!
Lin Tao looked at the ledger in front of him with a surprised expression.
When he was in the garrison, he was a squad leader in the large caravan. He had to keep a list when transporting military supplies, and he also had to check the quantities when getting on and off the car according to regulations.
While buying groceries, he habitually took out a piece of charcoal and started counting on a small wooden board, never expecting that Miss Song would entrust him with the accounting work.
Zhou Xiang and I had long planned to retire from the army and become military households, but we didn't expect it to happen so quickly.
"This..." Lin Tao was thrilled, but still hesitated. Without Luo Baihu's instructions, he couldn't accept it rashly.
Song Liyun knew that the sergeant's position needed to be arranged by the garrison, so she smiled and said, "Brother Lin, just accept it with peace of mind. I will go to Luo Baihu to report it. I think the garrison commander will not refuse."
Lin Tao's face immediately lit up with joy: "Then thank you very much for your help, young lady!"
Today is the second day of Tianxianglou's opening, and just as lunchtime arrived, Sun Wencheng's barbecue skewer team made a dazzling and grand appearance.
Compared to yesterday, there were more onlookers, but Sun Wencheng and others kept their hands steady and skillfully flipped the iron skewers on the charcoal fire, even showing off their fancy moves.
It allows passersby to feel the intense aroma and fiery passion without even getting close.
Two men, standing on high stools, banged on copper basins and shouted, "Free! Free! This is a rare opportunity!"
"Half-price promotion, limited time offer!"
Tianxiang Tower was so magnificent that in the past, let alone people gossiping and watching, ordinary people wouldn't even dare to glance at it.
Now it's been turned into a chaotic scene, like a marketplace, so crowded that anyone can just walk around.
Someone came yesterday, but only got a taste and didn't satisfy their craving. So now, I'm not going to fight with others for those free samples that only have one bite each.
He went straight to the shop, pointed at the neatly arranged plates of food, and said in a grand and imposing manner, "Grill all of these for me! And bring two jugs of your wine too."
A waiter announced, "Six tables in the hall, a hundred flowers in bloom! Double the wealth!"
The waiters at Tianxianglou, who are skilled at using the gimmicks of ordering food, can still call out the names of dishes in a pleasing manner, even though it's only been two days since the restaurant opened.
In the private room on the second floor, which was not yet open, Manager Wan listened for a while before closing the wooden window, instantly reducing the deafening noise outside by more than half.
He turned to look at the woman sitting leisurely opposite him, and said with admiration, "Miss Song, this is another way to make money! It's just that many people are still saying that it's a waste of such a good location to only sell roasted food."
Tianxianglou only sells simple roasted foods, which is clearly not in line with the image of this gatehouse.
However, he was aware of Tianxianglou's predicament; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was besieged on all sides.
Those people didn't confront her head-on like Hong Jingtian had done before; instead, they wanted to leave Song Liyun without food or manpower, like being trapped and dying in a barren desert.
A restaurant that doesn't have a famous chef, or even a chef capable of setting up a banquet, how can it possibly host a proper feast?
In many cases, outsiders can't offer much help in this kind of business competition.
Especially since he deals in leather goods, which has nothing to do with the catering industry, the most he can do is take his friends out for a couple of meals.
Everyone thought Song Liyun would at least go to the prefectural city to hire a chef, but unexpectedly, Song Liyun only asked for help to buy some simple items such as grain, oil, rice and flour, and then she directly overturned the entire street.
He did not appear at Tianxianglou yesterday, and he heard people all over the city talking about Tianxianglou.
Some people say it's good, some say it's bad, and many say that a perfectly good restaurant is now serving such low-class grilled food amidst the smoke and fire.
Song Liyun was prepared for this reaction and said with a faint smile, "It's good that someone said that. At least everyone knows that Tianxianglou has reopened and that they have clearly stated that they are offering affordable and delicious roasted food. Anyone can come and sit down and have a bite to eat."
I also saved myself the money I would have spent on hiring those slackers to go out and advertise.
Before the apocalypse, there were still those hunky barbecue restaurants with handsome men and beautiful women singing and dancing energetically.
Some people criticize them while others love them, but that doesn't stop them from making a fortune.
It's like someone once said, "Haters are fans too," as long as they can boost popularity.
To stand out, one must inevitably face criticism and judgment.
Manager Wan laughed heartily: "That makes sense! That makes sense!"
Tianxiang Tower was already a well-known hot topic in Qili County, and any slight movement from it would cause a great stir in the city. Now, Song Liyun's actions have aroused everyone's great curiosity.
If they were selling ordinary meals, this scene wouldn't be possible.
No wonder everyone says the name Tianxianglou is unlucky, but Song Liyun still uses it exactly as it is, precisely because she wants this kind of fame.
Manager Wan sighed inwardly: "Alas! What a waste of such a brilliant mind! If only it were mine."
Once again, he mentally went through all the nephews and nieces in his family who were suitable for marriage, determined to choose a suitable match.
It's still a long time, so there's no rush!
Manager Wan took a bite of the crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fragrant and spicy roasted meat on the table, and said with a smile, "It's a pity that such a delicacy cannot be found in the prefectural city. If you want to eat it in the future, you will have to come to Qili County."
While borrowing the name Tianxianglou might be eye-catching, the taste of this roasted meat is truly unique, making it a rare treat for gourmets.
However, Tianxianglou is a source of revenue for the garrison, and the people serving the barbecue and dishes outside are all soldiers of the Broken Gold Guard. They certainly wouldn't open a shop in the prefectural city.
Manager Wan wants to invest in a barbecue restaurant.
Sure enough, you can never have too much money.
Song Liyun smiled, she was the same, as long as she had the secret seasoning, she could open a barbecue shop anytime, anywhere.
There are still three months until the peak season for leather goods in late autumn, so we can't let this time go to waste.
"Uncle Wan, what do you think of this?" Song Liyun took out a plain handbag from a cardboard box next to her.
Upon recognizing what it was, Steward Wan's eyes lit up immediately: "It's sheepskin!"
When traveling, cow or sheepskin bags are the best choice for carrying goods. They are sturdy, durable, and easy to pack, but they cannot be used to carry delicate items.
The handbag in front of me was made of sheepskin, about a foot long and the width of a palm. It was smooth and shiny, and most importantly, it was square, just like a cardboard box.
Song Liyun unfastened the clasp on the handbag and showed its internal structure to Manager Wan: "This is a handbag. It can be hung on your belt, or you can use the short strap to wrap around your wrist and hang it from your arm, or you can use the long strap to hang it around your neck."
As she spoke, she demonstrated how to use the handbag on herself: "It's easy to put things in here and take them out..."
Before she could finish speaking, the impatient Steward Wan urged, "Miss Song, you've said so much, why don't you let me take a look first!"
As he spoke, he reached out and snatched the book, flipping through it to read.
