Xia Baozhu arranged the work in the store, especially the food safety of the food truck. She told Zheng Zhenhao to only be responsible for the three meals a day in the food truck and not to worry about anything else.
Because she was afraid that the food would spoil quickly in the heat, Xia Baozhu did not allow the food from the morning to be sold in the afternoon.
The only solution is to reduce the amount prepared in the morning and prepare it separately in the morning and afternoon, which requires the food cart to travel back and forth.
The red bean porridge on the dining car was replaced with mung bean porridge.
Because of the heat, Xia Baozhu provided each food truck with a sunshade and gave them an extra dollar each day as a cooling allowance, which was the money to buy popsicles.
The store's employees don't receive a summer allowance, but they are provided with fans, ice cream, and ice.
The store has added iced milk tea, which requires ice. Xia Baozhu specially bought a new freezer to store ice cube boxes, separate from the refrigerators and freezers used for meat and vegetables.
To accommodate the queuing customers, Xia Baozhu installed a large sunshade at the store entrance; the light and dark green stripes looked refreshing.
This way, customers won't leave while waiting in line because of the heat.
Moreover, after the awning was installed, the store experienced a surge in customers queuing up.
Summer is different from winter, and the store has to make adjustments in various aspects accordingly. For example, ice cubes are used when soaking boneless chicken feet.
Xia Baozhu didn't use tap water to make ice; she used cooled boiled water. Although it was troublesome, required more materials, and increased costs, in business, you can't afford to be careless about even the smallest things.
Because of her attitude, even though several similar shops opened in the city, their business was far less successful than hers.
Of course, this is also related to her good looks and fame, but good looks can only attract people temporarily. Most people still consider whether the food tastes good and its hygiene.
One of the reasons why their food trucks have consistently maintained good business is that they are cleaner, both inside and out, and both the people and the trucks are spotless.
In this respect, those food carts that have good food but poor hygiene are no match for them.
Cleanliness, hygiene, and delicious food are the impressions their food trucks leave on others. With this good impression, their food trucks are the first thing that comes to mind when people have difficulty making a choice.
This is also a summary of experience by Lin Aijun and his colleagues.
Maintaining hygiene is troublesome and will increase the workload considerably.
But because Xia Baozhu always emphasized this in meetings, they got used to it and made it a habit to keep their cars clean inside and out at all times.
After handing over the store management duties to San Gou, Xia Baozhu took the bus again to pick up money—no, to become a fashion model.
June weather is like a child's face, changing in an instant.
As soon as Xia Baozhu got into the car, the sky suddenly darkened, and after a while, dark clouds began to gather and thunder and lightning began.
Lightning illuminated the increasingly dark sky, followed by a deafening boom that was so close it sent shivers down one's spine, awakening a fear etched into one's very genes.
The people in the car started discussing the sudden rain.
Xia Baozhu hesitated whether to wait until the weather was better before leaving, but then felt that she was being too sentimental.
She's even stayed in a dormitory before, so how could she not overcome this little weather difficulty?
At this moment, a dark-skinned, muscular man sat down next to her. He was wearing long sleeves and trousers on such a hot day, and it made one feel hot just looking at him.
Xia Baozhu could smell his sweaty odor even through his mask.
She quickly turned her face to the car window, where the air, carrying the smell of damp earth, was blown into the car by the strong wind.
The heavy rain began to fall, lashing Xia Baozhu's face with the wind. Helpless, she closed the car window.
If you open the window, you'll get rained on; if you don't, there's a sweaty smell inside the car.
Just bear with it, it's only a little over three hours.
Soon the heavy rain obscured the car windows, making it impossible to see the outside scenery.
Fortunately, the front door was not closed because it was waiting for passengers, and it was only blocked by an umbrella by the ticket inspector.
A gust of wind blew in, bringing a touch of coolness and making the car less stuffy.
Xia Baozhu felt the man's gaze on her, and when she looked over, she met his malicious eyes.
Xia Baozhu glared at him, which made the man's expression even more varied, with a disgusting lecherous look and a hint of malice.
Xia Baozhu couldn't take it anymore. She got on the bus and sat here because she had the power to open and close the windows, but now she wanted to move.
She stood up and glanced around the car, finding a few empty seats, but the people sitting next to her didn't appeal to her; they were all similar to the person next to her.
I suspect these people are not well-liked, and others avoid sitting with them.
Xia Baozhu could only sit back down in disappointment.
She took out a magazine to read, trying to ignore the filthy man next to her.
Hearing his sneer didn't anger her; she was afraid she might punch him to death in anger.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Based on experience, thunderstorms like this come and go quickly.
But even after the car had been driving for an hour, the heavy rain still hadn't stopped. It was as if the sky had a hole in it, and the driver didn't dare to drive fast.
The road from Taicheng to Mingcheng is relatively easy to travel, except for one section which is a dirt road.
But the car suddenly stalled while crossing a muddy road, and the driver called for the people in the car to get out and help push the car.
Looking at the rain outside the window, Xia Baozhu thought to herself that she was really forcing herself to endure the hardship; she should have just gotten off the bus in the first place.
She looked at her leather sandals again, wondering if they would hold up after going into the water.
People lined up to get off the bus, and the ticket seller directed them to push the bus from the back.
He saw Xia Baozhu call out to her, "You stay in the car, you don't look very strong."
A skinny man behind me asked, "I'm skinny too, and I'm weak. I'll stay in the car too."
"Do you still want to leave? Hurry up and get off and push the cart!" The ticket seller didn't give the skinny boy a kind look for his lazy behavior.
Xia Baozhu went back with a smile; she had no intention of pushing the cart through the dirty mud.
Most people didn't think much of the arrangement for the ticket seller, believing that this seemingly weak woman wouldn't be of much help anyway.
Only a few people standing in the rain with their hands dangling at the back of the carriage thought the ticket seller favored the prettier women and that it was unfair.
With the help of the passengers, the bus started smoothly.
As these people boarded the bus, Xia Baozhu saw their soaking wet bodies and muddy trousers and shoes, and felt grateful that she had escaped a disaster.
The car continued driving, and an hour later the rain stopped, and the atmosphere inside the car became more relaxed.
Xia Baozhu originally wanted to open the car window to let in some fresh air, but then she stopped, remembering that many people were still wet.
About twenty minutes later, the man next to Xia Baozhu stood up and said loudly, "Master, my stomach hurts and I need to poop."
The road they were traveling on was flanked by mountains, and there was no sign of human habitation. After observing for a while, the driver stopped the car.
"Go quickly and come back quickly."
Upon seeing this, the burly, dark-skinned man burst into laughter, then pulled out a butcher knife, about ten centimeters long, from his pocket.
"Robbery!"
