When Ye Zhiqiu arrived at the shop, he opened the door and put the things in the refrigerator first. The two large refrigerators could hold thousands of portions of food!
Then he started to tinker with the drinks and beer. Judging from the rate of consumption, he had to restock them in advance in the next few days.
As for the fried chicken, he wasn't in a rush. Despite the huge daily turnover, he only consumed about a hundred chickens! Even with the chickens he stockpiled and raised, a month's consumption was a drop in the bucket!
Ye Zhiqiu really couldn't count how many chickens there were. There were only so many eggs in a nest, but the key was that he couldn't lay a large number of them. Later on, he was too lazy to pick up the eggs, so he let the hens do whatever they wanted.
At first he was willing to count them, but when the number reached tens of thousands at a time, he collected them and stored them in batches and didn't want to count them at all!
It's not that he hasn't thought about frying a whole chicken, but chickens nowadays are too big to be suitable for frying.
Since these chickens are not fed with feed, it is okay to fry them separately, but it is not suitable for frying whole chickens.
It was only half past eleven when Shi Zhijian and the other two came running over.
"Good morning, boss!"
“Hello, boss!”
Ye Zhiqiu nodded, and the three of them started to open the shop door, put out the sign to attract customers, and hang up the price signs. After all the busy work, they started business.
Unexpectedly, someone came in just as he finished cooking. Ye Zhiqiu quickly lit the fire, asked Shi Zhijian to come in, and began to teach him the frying time.
This thing actually doesn't require much skill. If the items are all about the same size and you fry them at about the same time, there won't be any problems.
So after a few explosions, Shi Zhijian took over the operation, while Ye Zhiqiu gave guidance from the side.
But when Ye Zhiqiu heard the visitor's words, he was furious!
Because many guests were discussing what the palace cuisine praised so highly by food critics tasted like!
Ye Zhiqiu didn't expect that the guy would fall so quickly. He just came here to eat yesterday, and today he put an advertisement in the newspaper to ruin himself!
If there weren't a few more people, and Shi Zhijian had learned how to blow things up, if I were alone, I would be busy as hell!
After lunch, around three o'clock, there were finally no customers. By then, Shi Zhijian had truly mastered deep-frying. At least he was very honest and fried every item according to the time set by Ye Zhiqiu, so there were no problems.
Ye Zhiqiu was drinking beer, holding a newspaper and gazing at the street outside. He Wenhui, who was standing beside him, said with a grin, "Boss, you're holding the newspaper upside down."
Ye Zhiqiu yawned and said, "What do you know? I want the posture, not the actual newspaper reading! Don't you think that if I look at the beautiful women passing by in this posture, no one will notice?"
Chen Weijie scratched his head and said, "Boss, there aren't any beauties here during the day. They only appear at night when those nightclubs and dance halls are open. Last night, many dancers came to our store for supper. If you want to see beauties, you can do so then."
It would have been fine if Ye Zhiqiu didn't mention it, but he became even more depressed when he did!
He swore, "Fuck him! Did you know that newspaper has food reviews? I really want to burn their office. All these people showed up at noon today, it's all because of that bastard!"
Shi Zhijian and the others didn't understand. Isn't good business a good thing? Why did the boss still look so angry, as if the food reviewer owed him money?
Chen Weijie asked cautiously, "Boss, was it that food critic who stole your girl? Tell us his name and we'll beat him up for you!"
Ye Zhiqiu rolled his eyes at him and said, "You're mentally ill! My wife even knows him, how could this be possible! It's just this flopped publicity..."
Ye Zhiqiu stopped talking. He realized something was wrong! He couldn't say he disliked him for attracting customers. He was the boss now, so how could he dislike having too many customers?
So he held back his words and abruptly changed the subject, "I'm saying this flop didn't promote us correctly. They should have praised the taste, but instead they just kept promoting some imperial cuisine! You know, there are a lot of really weird imperial cuisines out there. This is an insult to Ye's Fried Chicken!"
Shi Zhijian quickly consoled him, "Boss, calm down. At least he helped promote it. Most food reviews require payment to appear in the newspapers. The fact that our fried chicken was featured in the newspaper proves that he really loves your secret recipe. Otherwise, these guys wouldn't write articles for nothing."
Ye Zhiqiu waved his hand and stopped discussing the matter with them. He drank his beer and asked them, "What do you want to eat for dinner? If you like the fried chicken from the store, then have it. If you don't like it, then go out and buy a box lunch."
He Wenhui quickly said, "Boss, let's buy lunch boxes. Fried chicken can be sold for so much money, it would be a waste if we just eat our fill."
Ye Zhiqiu said unhappily, "Is chicken expensive? What's expensive are the spices and the various recipes. So, eat it if you want. There's no reason why you can't afford something you made yourself."
"Hey, boss, we're welcome, okay?"
"Eat, eat, eat! That's all I need! I can work properly only when I'm full! Oh, Zhijian, just teach them. Let them learn how to fry one by one."
"Okay, boss, can I have two chicken legs?"
"Stop talking nonsense. Eat as much as you want. If you can finish it, you can even eat five!"
Ye Zhiqiu really didn't think eating some chicken was a big deal. You know, when he was in the capital, after a difficult period, he would send dozens of chickens and tens of pounds of pork to his relatives and friends!
At that time, chicken was not so easy to get, and pork was still subject to purchase restrictions. There were really few people who could be as arrogant as him!
My cousin's children have become a little fat because of the food they eat from their uncle!
He had no choice. The space had more and more materials. Why not use some and keep them? They were all relatives and friends. Talking about money and interests was meaningless.
Ye Zhiqiu was no longer short of money at that time because he had helped to connect and trade grain, pork, rabbits, chickens and ducks many times in the name of smuggling!
Even if he spent all his money on buying calligraphy and paintings, porcelain, jade, rare wood furniture and other things, there were still bundles of black coins in his space, worth more than 100,000 yuan that he hadn't spent!
It was because of the current turmoil that highly educated people like Feng Xiaomei were classified as the fifth category, so Ye Zhiqiu chose to take them to Hong Kong.
The main reason is that he left for work, and Feng Xiaomei and others accompanied him as family members. He can go back to China at any time, and his household registration information will always exist!
Otherwise, he could protect Feng Xiaomei and find a neutral leader whom he had met several times. The problem could be easily solved by just moving to the military compound so that he would not be disturbed.
But Ye Zhiqiu also has his own selfish motives, because not only his family members miss him, he misses these family members too!
