Chapter 62: Two days equals her mother's ten-day salary

"I kneaded a little more dough myself, but I didn't know how to add the salt and pepper seasoning, so I just kept it plain," Wang Xiaofeng explained.

At this time, Cheng Yang on the side also added: "Yes, there are almost a hundred original ones at the back."

There were too many people before, and she had been busy making rolls since Cheng Yang came back, so she wasn't very clear about what kind of steamed buns they were selling.

After hearing the explanation, Shi Xiaoai nodded.

In fact, she had quite a lot of noodles today, but maybe people nowadays are really short of material things.

So much so that whenever they hear the slightest sign of trouble, their first reaction is to stockpile.

The thirty nut-filled stone buns in the morning successfully completed their mission and served as a big advertisement for the tea stall.

Those who got the news and rushed to buy it but failed would naturally follow Shi Xiaoai's recommendation and buy stone buns of other flavors out of regret.

And there was some kind of revenge consumption. In order to make up for the loss of not buying the nut-filled stone buns, many people originally planned to buy only two, but ended up buying three or five in a fit of excitement.

If one person starts buying more, the people behind him will subconsciously follow suit. As the number of steamed buns in their baskets decreases, the people behind him will panic and buy more...

Anyway, you don’t have to worry about eating this thing cold. In this weather, you can take it home and keep it for a few days without it going bad.

Besides, there are so many people at home, we can’t let them stay overnight.

So after the salt and pepper flavor was sold out, even the original flavor was sold out.

Although Shi Xiaoai knew that this situation could not last long, everyone would definitely return to normal after two days of excitement.

But it couldn't stop her from being happy!

She immediately said, "Come on, let's give out money!"

After saying that, he reached out to Cheng Yang's bag where the money was kept.

Before Cheng Yang could say anything, Wang Xiaofeng was stunned: "Sister, it's not even night yet!"

Shi Xiaoai waved her hand and said, "Never mind, I'll send it out in advance today."

As she spoke, she took out six yuan and twenty cents from her bag and handed it to Wang Xiaofeng, following the count they had just checked. "Five hundred stone buns, one hundred and twenty pan-fried buns. Did you count correctly?"

What else is Wang Xiaofeng counting?

Her hands are shaking right now!

Six dollars and twenty cents! She actually made six dollars and twenty cents in just one morning!

Together with the two dollars and fifty-six cents she earned yesterday, she earned her mother's ten-day salary in a day and a half!

Don’t be fooled by the fact that my mother looks very glorious in the office. She is not a formal employee and only earns more than 30 yuan a month.

And she earned the money back in less than two days!

No, more than that.

It's only half a day, there's still afternoon and evening.

With the crazy sales this morning, we can sell another batch in the evening!

Wang Xiaofeng's hands were shaking uncontrollably with excitement. She took the money and held it tightly in her hand without even counting it.

She looked at Shi Xiaoai and smiled foolishly.

He laughed for a long time and suddenly stood up and said, "Sister, I'm leaving first. I'll go make the noodles... No, I'm going home to eat first. You go make the noodles..."

Seeing that she was so excited that she was incoherent, Shi Xiaoai didn't laugh at her.

Instead, he said, "I have to go out with your brother-in-law later, so I'll let Mingxi and Mingrui sleep at home at noon. I'll give you the key before I leave, so you can go home and cook. We'll be back before dinner time."

Wang Xiaofeng naturally couldn't refuse.

Because business was so brisk in the morning, Wang Xiaofeng was too busy to handle it and simply called her mother back from the office.

Anyway, Aunt Liu and her colleagues spend most of their time in the alley handling civil disputes and promoting policies, so there is no requirement to be in the office.

So if I occasionally slack off and do some private work, no one will know.

She brought the stone buns over and didn't go back. Aunt Liu was not idle either. She knew that it was very busy here, so she simply stayed at home and prepared lunch for both sides.

So the couple who were originally rushing to go home to cook for their children saw hot meals as soon as they got home, which saved them a lot of trouble.

In addition to saving trouble, it also saves a lot of time.

After dinner, Mingrui took his sister back to the house for a nap, while Xiaoai hurriedly kneaded the noodles for the afternoon.

In addition, having learned from the lesson of the morning, she divided all the ingredients needed to make salt and pepper stone buns into small portions and made more than a dozen packets of ingredients and wrapped them in paper.

This way, when needed, you can take out a portion according to the ratio and sprinkle it directly on the flour.

Even if she was too busy to knead the dough, Wang Xiaofeng could easily do it.

Shi Xiaoai and Cheng Yang were planning to go to a state-owned restaurant in the afternoon. She actually wanted to go there in person yesterday, but she was too busy with business and couldn't get away.

But when Cheng Yang went there yesterday, she still asked him to tell Master Liu that she would go over and take a look today.

By the time the young couple arrived at the restaurant, it was already past two in the afternoon, which was just the right time, as the restaurant was finishing its lunch break and not too busy.

When they arrived, Master Liu was already waiting at the door of the hotel.

Standing at the door of the hotel and looking at this three-story independent antique building, Xiao Ai realized that she was too ignorant before.

She thought that state-owned restaurants were like the small restaurants in the 1970s and 1980s shown on TV, with three or two people, four or five tables, and a dozen or so benches.

Who would have known that what stood before him was actually a luxurious restaurant!

Even though it still looks a bit old now, you can tell from the ladders and scaffolding set up outside the store that construction and renovation have begun gradually.

Seeing her shocked expression as she looked at the restaurant, Master Liu smiled smugly as if his treasure was appreciated by others.

He boasted loudly, "Xiao Ai, even though our hotel is a little old now, it won't be long before it's renovated. By then, it will definitely be the most luxurious hotel in Yuncheng!"

"And our hotel is going to change its name soon, back to its original name - Yunfeng Pavilion! It will no longer be called Jianmin Hotel!"

Xiao Ai is very familiar with this feeling of Master Liu. It is exactly the same feeling as when her parents introduce their hotel to outsiders.

Of course she knew what she should do at this time.

Master Liu felt extremely comforted by all the sweet words he said. He felt that Master Shi's granddaughter was perfect in every way and he wanted to snatch her away to be his own daughter.

Master Liu has worked in the hotel for decades and is in charge of purchasing. He has an extremely good reputation and popularity here.

With him leading the way, Shi Xiaoai and Cheng Yang had a smooth journey.

Because everyone in the purchasing office had gone off work at this time, Master Liu did not take them to the office, but went directly to the material preparation room.

Although the goods here are not as many as those in a large warehouse, there are enough materials to sustain the restaurant's normal consumption within three to five days.

Master Liu stood at the door, pointing to the various grains, oils, meats and vegetables inside and said, "The variety of things here is not too complete, but it's enough for temporary use.

Just tell me what you need. If it's not here, just write me a note and I'll find someone to buy it for you."

The preparation room, which Master Liu thought did not have enough variety, was now more abundant than ever before in the eyes of Shi Xiaoai and the others!

Looking at the room full of things, Shi Xiaoai felt like a little mouse falling into a rice jar!
