A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

Chapter 130 Behave yourself

In the middle of the Si hour.

The blacksmith shop pulled two donkey carts to the door of the hot pot shop. Zhang Yunyue happened to be cleaning the shop, so when the two donkey carts stopped at the door of the shop, Zhang Yunyue noticed them.

Zhang Yunyue put down the broom in her hand and walked to the door.

The blacksmith shop owner saw Zhang Yunyue coming out and said, "Miss, the pots you requested are all ready. I'm here to deliver them to you today as agreed. Please check them. They are made exactly as you requested."

Zhang Yunyue stepped forward and picked up about ten of them to examine them. The iron pots were very thick and had a certain weight in their hands.

"No problem, I'll call someone to move it."

Zhang Yunyue turned and entered the shop, calling a few waiters to move all the iron pots to the backyard.

After all the iron pots were moved, Zhang Yunyue counted them and found no problem with the number, so he gave the remaining money to the owner of the blacksmith shop.

As soon as the blacksmith shop left, the carpenter shop came pulling a donkey, with two plaques on the donkey cart.

Zhang Yunyue asked the waiter to move the two plaques into the shop, paid the remaining money to the carpenter shop, and then returned to the shop.

all day.

The hot pot shop and the food shop were cleaned spotlessly from the front yard to the back yard.

Zhang Yunyue also took the waiter to paste all her paintings on the walls of the hot pot shop, planning to paste them on both the first and second floors.

However, the previous rules and regulations were abandoned, and the paintings were posted on the wall in a messy and beautiful way.

After the children finished pasting the paintings, everyone liked them. The animals in the paintings were vivid and interesting, and some of the paintings were of vegetables, which made people happy just by looking at them. It is easy to imagine that after the opening, everyone will have a better appetite when eating hot pot by looking at the paintings on the wall.

Zhang Yunyue thought that the waiters in the store had never eaten hotpot, and they would not know how to answer if a customer asked them about it.

So we asked the kitchen staff to make different hotpots for everyone in the next two days. There were at least two kinds of hotpots on each table, one with clear soup and one with red oil, so that everyone who can eat spicy food or not can be satisfied.

At that time, you can introduce it to customers truthfully based on your own feeling of eating hot pot.

The next day.

The waiters and helpers in the store all gathered in the backyard, helping to wash all the bowls, chopsticks, plates, and the iron pots used for hot pot.

All iron pots must be boiled, otherwise they will easily rust, and the hot pot made in them will taste bad and have a rusty smell.

At noon, Zhang Cheng drove a horse-drawn carriage carrying chili peppers and crispy whistles to the hot pot shop. After unloading the crispy whistles and pickled chili peppers from the hot pot shop, he drove the carriage to unload the remaining chili peppers at the food shop before driving the carriage back.

By the time all the things in the kitchen were cleaned, it was almost You time, so Zhang Yunyue asked the kitchen to start preparing dinner early. Then everyone finished dinner and went home to rest early, so as to welcome the opening tomorrow with full enthusiasm.

During the day, Wang Min and Song He's luggage had been moved to the food store.

After dinner, Zhang Cheng drove the carriage and loaded the bowls and chopsticks needed by the food shop onto the carriage. Then he took Wang Min and Song He to the food shop. After moving the bowls and chopsticks from the carriage to the back kitchen, he drove the carriage back to the hot pot shop alone.

Wang Min and Song He were in the kitchen, cooking all the braised meat and braised pork feet that the noodle restaurant would need tomorrow in a pot on low heat. The braised pork and spicy chicken were also prepared in advance. They would just have to cook some other dishes and knead the dough tomorrow.

There are no helpers to help today, so the two of them are very busy. After tomorrow, the helpers in the kitchen will help to wash everything in advance, and Wang Min will only be responsible for the final frying and boiling.

Mao hour the next day.

The hot pot shop and the food shop started to get busy. Song He was in charge of opening the food shop today, and Zhang Xingyun was there to help.

So Zhang Xingyun finished his breakfast early and went to the food store.

The hot pot shop is managed by Zhang Cheng and Zhang Yunyue. After all, they face more customers than the food shop.

Zhang Cheng had someone move a ladder and hang the plaque above the gate. The plaque was still covered with red cloth, and a string of firecrackers was hung on each side of the gate.

The waiter was wiping the tables, chairs and benches in the shop again.

Vegetable and butchers have also delivered the corresponding vegetables and meat to food stores and hot pot shops.

Among them, the waiters were actively washing the vegetables, the kitchen helpers were slicing the pork, and some were chopping chicken, ribs, pork bones, etc. The pork bones would be used to make soup later, and when they were put in the hot pot, the taste would be more fragrant.

After the busy past two days, everyone worked at a more rhythmic pace today and there was no rush.

Now we just have to wait for the auspicious time to come.

The same situation applies to the food store.

Song He and Zhang Xingyun hung the plaque above the gate.

The waiter cleaned the tables, chairs and benches on the first and second floors again. Wang Min was preparing dishes in the kitchen, and the noodles had already risen.

The food shop just needs to wait for an auspicious time to open.

Si time, the auspicious time has arrived.

At the same time, Zhang Cheng and Song He stood at the door of the hot pot shop and food shop respectively, giving opening speeches.

Zhang Cheng: "Dear neighbors, today is the opening day of our Four Seasons Hotpot. Since the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming in a few days, we have decided to open Four Seasons Hotpot from today to the 15th.

During these four days, if you spend 100 wen or more, you will get a 20 wen discount. If you spend 200 wen or more, you will get a 40 wen discount. There is no upper limit. We have hotpots of various flavors, spicy or not, you can choose. We will definitely not let our neighbors down. "

Zhang Cheng paused for a moment, then looked at the people standing at the door and shouted, "Four Seasons Hotpot is officially open."

The waiter who was guarding next to the firecrackers lit them immediately.

For a moment, the sounds of "crackling, crackling, crackling..." echoed all around.

Wait for the firecrackers to stop.

Zhang Cheng: "Everyone is welcome to try it first. If you like it, come in and sit down and eat slowly."

Zhang Yunyue asked Hu Donggui and Deng Hai to prepare three or four kinds of hot pot and placed them at the entrance of the store. Then she called two waiters to cook the dishes in front of everyone and distributed them to passers-by standing in front of the door to try.

In fact, let alone trying it, just smelling the rich and fresh aroma in the air, you will know that this hot pot is delicious.

However, most people will still try free things. After taking two bites, they were attracted by the taste of the hot pot.

"This is called hot pot. It's so delicious. I saw the waiter put a lot of dishes in it, but when you eat it, they all have their own fragrance."

"Oh, this one I'm eating has chicken in it. The chicken is also fragrant. It tastes better than just stewing it. What's the name of this hot pot?"

The waiter beside him smiled and replied, "Sir, this is our spicy chicken hotpot. It tastes spicy."
