Chapter 271 Kelp on the Dinner Table
"If you order three dishes, you will get a plate of red oil pig ears for free. The price of red oil pig ears is one yuan and thirty cents, but few people eat pig head meat, and the price is compared to fatty meat. It's even cheaper. You can buy more than two kilograms for one dollar, and two kilograms of pork head can make seven or eight plates.
"Although most of the people who come to eat order a vegetarian dish, it doesn't seem expensive, but it's a bit cheaper. " In fact, vegetarian dishes are more profitable than meat dishes. However, the rice and noodles are all brought out by my sister-in-law, and the cost price is not recorded in the accounts. "
However, rice and noodles only account for a small part of it, and it does not affect the overall situation.
Dongzi was stunned for a long time before he regained his composure.
"If there is such a good business every day, my sister-in-law will be able to earn back the money she spent to buy the restaurant in less than half a year."
Everyone knows about Xu Wanning's purchase of the restaurant and courtyard house, but the purchase price is only for her, Lin An, and Mr. Xu and Xu Ning knew it.
Based on the current housing prices in Beijing, Dongzi speculated that the price of this restaurant would be at least 20,000 yuan.
If the average daily net profit is 100 yuan, it would be 3,000 yuan a month, and 18,000 yuan in half a year...
"It seems that the catering business is really profitable."
"Otherwise, why would my sister-in-law let us make noodles in the first place? ? It’s just that the competition is too fierce. We have to work very hard every month to save a little money, and Geng Ming has to suffer with us. But it’s different in my sister-in-law’s restaurant, where we both get paid every month. It’s almost a hundred yuan in total, and you don’t have to spend any money on food, drink, and accommodation, and you can save all the money you earn.”
Cuifen kept her eyes on Dongzi as she spoke.
The two have been married for several years and have a deep relationship. Dongzi naturally understands what Cuifen is worried about.
"Daughter-in-law, don't worry. I don't have any great potential in this life, and I don't expect to become a rich man. I have only one goal. I will follow my sister-in-law and get stable money every month to support you and Gengming."
"What you said. Remember, if you dare to make any bad ideas, I will never forgive you."
"Absolutely not, I promise you."
Dongzi said good things for a while, and then reluctantly coaxed Cuifen to dispel her doubts. .
He was no longer sleepy now, so he asked Cuifen for the account book to see the profit from the braised food.
"I didn't expect that the braised meat would sell so well. The two pots sold for a total of 280 yuan."
Xu Wanning's second pot of braised meat couldn't escape the fate of being bought by Lao Tie.
However, Dongzi took Xu Wanning's words to heart, and even though those people talked nonsense, he did not sell another piece of marinade.
Even when serving vegetarian dishes to others, he would rather keep the marinade dry and weigh less than to let others know the recipe of the marinade.
"After I finish my work tomorrow, I will take the time to go to the market two more times to see if I can get some more chicken feet, duck feet, chicken wings, and duck wings. By the way, there are also duck intestines and pig intestines.
They are all very good." The net profit from braised food is not at all different from the dishes sold in the front hall.
Moreover, my sister-in-law said that she made the braised food with her own secret recipe. She is the only one in the world who can make this flavor. Sooner or later, it will become the signature of Xujiapu Restaurant.
The chefs can all cook the dishes sold in the store, which are not the characteristics of Xujiapu Restaurant.
On the other side, when Xu Wanning and Lin An rushed home, Mother Lin and the children were already asleep.
The two of them tiptoed into the bedroom, washed themselves briefly, and fell on the bed to sleep.
The next morning, as soon as Xu Wanning woke up, Jinchu poked his head out of the door and said, "Mom, you're awake. Grandma is calling for breakfast."
"Okay, I'll get up right away."
When he got to the dinner table, he saw the desktop When a plate of cold kelp shreds was placed on the table, Xu Wanning was stunned for a moment.
Kelp!
When she was selling braised meat yesterday, she wanted to add some kelp or kelp knots to it, but she vaguely thought that there was no kelp sold in the market yet. If she rashly took it out, it would definitely arouse suspicion.
Unexpectedly, I saw it on my dinner table the next day.
She suppressed the doubts and excitement in her heart and asked Mother Lin: "Mom, what is this? Why haven't you seen it before?"
"Tell me, what is this kelp called? It was sent by comrade Chen from the next door to us. Yes, it’s a specialty of their hometown, and it’s delicious. It’s been a few days since I delivered it, but I haven’t been willing to eat it. I just wanted to wait for you to come back and taste it.”
As she said that, Mother Lin put the kelp on the plate . He moved from Lin An to Xu Wanning, "Eat more. If you like the taste, mom will give you some before you come back next week. She has a lot at home."
"Are there many more?"
" Yes, I went to her house and the yard was full of these things."
Xu Wanning picked up a piece of kelp.
To be honest, the taste is just average.
Of course, the main reason was that Mother Lin's cooking was mediocre. After all, she had never seen anything like this before, so she made it according to the ordinary cold dish method.
"Why didn't I think of that!" Xu Wanning tapped her head with chopsticks.
She can definitely add cold dishes to the restaurant. It's already the end of May, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and everyone's appetite will become smaller. Cold dishes are an appetizer.
"Mom, after dinner, can you accompany me to Chen's house?"
Although Mother Lin didn't know what Xu Wanning was so surprised about, she agreed without any hesitation.
"Okay. Then eat more food first. Mom will accompany you after eating."
After dinner, Mother Lin did not clear away the dishes and took Xu Wanning to the Lin family.
Jinchu's face drooped.
"Mom said she would play with us during the holidays this week, but she is so busy that she doesn't even talk to me anymore."
Song Han was also a little disappointed, but compared to his sister, he was obviously more sensible.
"Mom wants to make money and buy us delicious food, fun things, and a new house to live in in the future. Jinchu, we have to be sensible and considerate of mom."
Jinchu rubbed his wet eyes with the back of his hand. His mouth tightened, and he said angrily: "I would rather have something delicious and fun than wear new clothes. I also want my mother to spend more time with us."
Jinchu didn't even like Jingshi anymore.
Although the city of Beijing is very prosperous, with her grandma and a large family who love her, there are also many novelty things that she has never seen before.
But my mother has also become extremely busy. From seeing her every day at first to once a week, she can only see her once every two months.
Before her mother went to school last week, she promised her and her brother that she would take them to the square during the holiday this week.
She took a bath last night and washed her hair with shampoo. This morning she put on a new dress that her grandmother had bought and she had been reluctant to wear.
But her mother didn't even notice she was wearing a new dress.
When I was in Dajiang Village, my mother was busy working in the branch factory, but at least she would go home to accompany them every day.
