The Dong family father and son saw so many dishes from the Su family, especially the boiled fish, the aroma of which filled their noses.
I don’t know if they couldn’t resist the Su family’s enthusiastic invitation, or if they also wanted to taste the pure white fish fillets.
The Dong family's father and son reluctantly sat on the stools, and they tacitly agreed to have a snack.
Mr. Gu was good at speaking and he told everyone in a few words that they sold 300 bowls of cold noodles in the morning.
"Then we'll prepare 300 bowls this afternoon and close the stall once we sell them. After a few days, when you've become more proficient at it, my second brother can open a stall and sell Jianbing Guozi on his own."
Su Shuoci said this according to his daughter-in-law's instructions.
"Sister...hehe...did you say I can sell pancakes?" Second Brother Gu was so excited that he wanted to call his brother-in-law.
Su Shuoci became unhappy again when he saw that Second Brother Gu did not call him brother-in-law. He just glanced at Second Brother Gu that day.
It’s really not that he doesn’t want to be Gu Jiaojiao’s husband. On the contrary, he wants to be recognized by the Gu family too much.
"Brother, you have to have confidence in yourself and practice making pancakes at home this afternoon."
"It's great to sell pancakes. I ate some yesterday and I want to eat some today. My second brother is making pancakes at home, so I'll come over to eat after get off work."
Dong Qihua's expectant voice hinted at excitement.
"I'm going to sell cold noodles in the afternoon, practice making pancakes in the evening, or make pancakes for everyone for breakfast in the morning?"
"That's fine. It'll probably take a few days to set up another stall. Mom and Dad aren't quite as skilled at selling cold noodles yet."
"Three hundred bowls of cold noodles, how much money can I make?" Dong's uncle calculated in his mind.
Three hundred bowls is ninety yuan, and his monthly salary is only eighty yuan!
"The gross profit from 300 bowls is 90 yuan, but after deducting the cost and labor costs, the net profit is only 20 yuan."
Gu Jiaojiao said with a smile that she did not tell Uncle Dong that each person would be given five yuan for each time they set up a stall.
Although her uncle is her mother's biological brother, what if Dong Qihua goes back and tells the other members of the Dong family and they get jealous?
"Twenty dollars net in one morning? That would be forty dollars a day? Oh my god! More in one month than I make in a year, holy shit~"
After Dong Qihua finished speaking, he picked up a piece of chicken and put it into his mouth and ate it. He had completely forgotten about the snack he was thinking about before.
Uncle Dong was also surprised. The fish in his mouth had distinct layers and was very harmonious. It was really delicious.
Even people in high positions and with great power are human beings, and they also have appetites. He also forgot to eat less.
Besides, the Su family is not short of food now, and he is thinking about how his sister's family will have a good life in the future.
He felt that the beans were particularly delicious, not to mention the boiled fish fillets, which he had never eaten before.
He looked at Su Shuoci again, a young man who was twenty years younger than him and whose position was only two levels lower than his.
Moreover, he climbed up on his own. Three generations of his Dong family have been in politics, and he more or less relied on family connections.
"You can't run a business the way you do. If it rains, you can't open your stall. Besides, making food is incredibly hard, not to mention being the first to try something new..."
Gu Jiaojiao babbled on and on about the cost of running a snack stall that couldn’t sell anything, and how hard it was.
In 1980, only big cities began to start setting up stalls and self-employed individuals. Naturally, those who were the first to try it out enjoyed many benefits.
"Jiaojiao, what does selling cold noodles have to do with being the first to eat crabs? Do we still have to sell crabs?"
"Ha ha……"
Gu Jingtai's words made everyone burst into laughter.
Although Mr. Gu was helpless, he still explained to his second grandson with a smile on his face.
This second grandson has been on the farm with his parents since he was old enough to understand. He has developed a lot of strength but is an uneducated person.
"Jingtai, studying is still very important. Why don't you study for a year before taking the college entrance exam?
The first person who ate crabs that Jiaojiao mentioned refers to a year when there was a crab disaster in Shaoxing and people tried many ways to solve the problem but failed.
Later, a master taught everyone a method, asking them to get a broken jar and then pour salt water into the jar.
Wait for the crabs to crawl in, submerge them in salt water, and finally all the crabs are killed.
When people were unable to deal with the crabs, it was the master who stepped forward first.
Eat crabs in front of everyone and then praise the crabs for their delicious taste.
So people use the phrase "the first to try something" to describe the first person who dares to do something.
Although Mr. Gu was short of breath, he still spoke quickly and clearly when talking about the literary allusions he loved.
The face, which has been worn by time, is covered with wrinkles, and the rough and loose skin looks a bit like waves at this moment.
It was like a cool breeze blowing, creating ripples and waves on the water.
Looking at her grandfather like this, ripples also appeared in Gu Jiaojiao's heart. It was her admiration for Grandpa Gu and her pride in saving the Gu family.
Tribulation is inevitable in everyone's life, and some people kneel down when they encounter tribulation.
There are not many people as tenacious as Grandpa Gu, and the Gu family is not mentioned in the original book.
She should have been cannon fodder before she even appeared on the stage. Gu Jiaojiao knew this even more clearly that if she met the Gu family a step later.
At least the lives of Mr. Gu and Big Brother Gu cannot be saved, and then Father and Mother Gu will not be able to withstand the blow and will also fall.
Today, grandpa can still talk and laugh wittily, and eldest brother's skinny face has a lively expression.
very nice.
No one knew whether it was because of the spiciness or the excitement, but a thin layer of sweat had already appeared on their foreheads.
After the meal, Su Shuoci cut a watermelon. Dong Qihua touched his bulging belly and said, "Su Tuan, can I come to your house and share a meal with you in the future?"
"That won't do, cousin. Even if you pay for the food and labor, it won't work. My sister works so hard to cook."
Before Su Shuoci could say anything, Second Brother Gu rushed to say that his sister's cooking was delicious.
If my uncle and cousin came to eat often, it would be so hard!
"Gu Jingtai, you...you..." Dong Qihua ran out of words and couldn't say anything for a long time.
"Uncle, you can come over occasionally for a bite, but if you want to eat here every day, you'll have to wait until we get a business license to open a restaurant."
"We don't know yet, but it should be soon." Dong's uncle said after careful consideration.
Gu Jiaojiao was just trying to find out what Dong's uncle was thinking. She knew that it seemed possible to open a private restaurant in the capital.
But she didn't know when Qingcheng could open a restaurant privately, because opening a restaurant doesn't need to be exposed to the wind and sun.
But Gu Jiaojiao is not in a hurry. There are not many people setting up stalls now. She will wait until everyone follows suit.
They had earned enough, so they closed their stalls and opened a restaurant, and then a restaurant...
Now that she is here, she will undoubtedly be the richest person in Qingcheng, and she can also have a shot at being the richest person in the world.
Song Zijin, get out of here. She plans to follow Song Zijin's path. Not to say that she will leave Song Zijin with no way out, but at least she will not let him become the richest man.
The original book mentioned that the ancestors of the Song family were all in business, and the current eldest son of the Song family is the manager of a department store.
