Chapter 18 Place an order at a restaurant



Xiao Jing exchanged a few words with He Wenhao and then asked the students to leave, saying that he still had important things to do. But he said he had important things to do, but he still sat there leisurely and ate sour radish.

After He Wenhao and others left the snack bar, the troublemaking scholar looked at He Wenhao in confusion, "Brother He, who is that prince?"

He Wenhao chuckled, laughing at his classmate's blindness and ignorance, "Who else will appear in our city?"

Liu Yu'an suddenly realized, "This man is not the brave and invincible man who annihilated the South Vietnamese army outside the pass several times and made the South Vietnamese army fearful. He stood side by side with Wang An!"

He Wenhao nodded in approval.

The scholar who caused the trouble broke out in a cold sweat, "I heard that King An was the number one general in the imperial court. He was highly regarded by the emperor and held a large number of troops. It can be said that one person is inferior to ten thousand people! But, shouldn't he be at the border? Why is he here with us?" Fucheng?"

"Some matters in the army also need to be coordinated by local officials. In order to facilitate the handling of military affairs, the prince also has a residence in Fucheng. It is bitterly cold at the border. If there is nothing in the army, he will go back to Fucheng to stay for a day or two."

The students all cast envious glances at He Wenhao. Not only did his father serve as an official, but he also knew important officials in the court! If civilian students like them knew such a powerful official and gained his favor, it would be much smoother for them to take scientific examinations or enter official careers in the future.

Yuan Chuyi, who was busy greeting the guests, didn't know that someone was making a fuss about her just now. She saw that after the students met the prince, they all left without having time to finish the spicy hotpot. Seeing that it was a pity that there were leftovers, she put the skewers they had not eaten into a clean bowl, added a few skewers of tofu slices, and sent them to a few beggars begging for food on the roadside. Several beggars aged thirteen or fourteen hurriedly kowtowed to her to thank her.

Since there were many customers today, business was very good. When she first arrived at Shenshi, all the spicy hotpot and radish sour she had prepared were sold out. But she was very surprised that the prince came not long after she opened the business and sat there all the time. It was only now that she was about to clean up the stall that he took his boy and left slowly.

Yuan Chuyi didn't think much about the prince's behavior. After they left, she cleared the table and dishes and prepared to take Fifteen and Sixteen to buy ingredients. She was holding the lock to lock the door when a man in his forties who looked like a shopkeeper in a robe hurried over.

"Female shopkeeper, please slow down, wait a moment, wait a moment!" the man bowed his hands.

Seeing the man in a hurry, Yuan Chu quickly stopped and returned the greeting, "I wonder what you need to do, sir?"

"To be honest, I am the shopkeeper of Xiangmanlou in front of me, my surname is Zhu. I came here to ask if the shopkeeper still has the radish sour?"

Seeing shopkeeper Zhu in a hurry, Yuan Chu thought that he was in a hurry to buy the radish sour, but it was a pity that she had sold out all the radish sour today. Shopkeeper Zhu looked disappointed.

"Ms. Yuan, I want to order some radish sour from you tomorrow, is that okay?"

Xiangmanlou is one of the largest restaurants in Fucheng. The guests who come to the restaurant to dine are either rich or expensive. Many of them are noble people who entertain guests and discuss important matters or big business. Since the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, many people have eaten her sour sour. After eating her sour, they felt that Xiangmanlou's appetizing sour was not delicious.

Today, there were several tables of customers saying that their sour sauce was not delicious and they requested the radish sour from her snack shop. Their waiter had already come to buy it several times today.

Two more tables of customers came just now, and they all wanted to eat the sour food from her snack shop. When the waiter came to buy it, they could no longer buy it. Only then did shopkeeper Zhu rush over to order some from her.

"I wonder how much Shopkeeper Zhu needs?" If business comes to you on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, you won't push it out.

Based on the amount of radish acid consumed in his restaurant every day, shopkeeper Zhu pointed to the clean ceramic blue and white jars in the first room of the Yuan Dynasty, "Let's take a look at three jars like this!"

Yuan Chuyi looked at the jar and saw that it could hold about ten kilograms of crushed acid.

"Okay, one can weighs about ten kilograms. You are a big customer, so I'll give you a bargain. One can costs ninety cents. What do you think?"

Shopkeeper Zhu did a little calculation and found that the retail price on Yuan 1st was five cents per bowl. One pound of crushed acid could hold at least two or three bowls. Ten pounds of crushed acid would sell for at least twenty bowls. The camp commander also had at least one hundred cents. , if you pack three bowls per kilogram, then ten kilograms will equal thirty bowls. If you sell it for five cents per bowl, your revenue will reach one hundred and fifty cents! Besides, they sell more than just five cents a bowl! She only charged them ninety cents a can, which obviously gave the restaurant a huge profit margin.

Shopkeeper Zhu made the calculation and immediately agreed. At the same time, he also cast an approving look at Yuan Chuyi. He knew that this woman was good at doing business!

He immediately paid a deposit of 150 yuan to Yuan Chuyi and asked her to deliver it to the restaurant on time at the end of Chen time tomorrow morning.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he was unambiguous. He collected the money, wrote a receipt, and promised to deliver it on time tomorrow. Shopkeeper Zhu took the receipt and left with confidence.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he collected the money, locked the door, and went to buy ingredients with Fifteen and Sixteen. When Shen Shiwei arrived, Mr. Zhang came on time to pick up the three siblings and a cart full of ingredients back to the village. On the way, on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he did not forget to tell Mr. Zhang to speed up cutting the bamboo sticks. Judging from the sales volume in the past two days, the consumption of these bamboo sticks was quite large. Mr. Zhang was also afraid of delaying her work, so he promised to speed up the cutting when he returned.

As soon as she returned to the village, Yuan Chuyi saw many people busy in front of her courtyard. Some were carrying stones, while others were busy digging the river bank into steps. Several women were helping to pour the soil and chattering. It was very lively.

On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, she remembered that she had asked the village chief to help build steps by the river last night so that she could carry water for washing. She expected that they were busy with her now.

Several women saw her coming back, and the car was full of baskets of ingredients. Before she could say hello, they enthusiastically came up to help carry the ingredients out of the car and put them into her kitchen.

Several women were surprised to see her buying several baskets of radishes.

"Ms. Yuan, why did you buy so many radishes? If you want to buy radishes, tell me. There are a lot of radishes in my vegetable field and they haven't been pulled out yet. Do you still want them?" asked a woman in her forties. .

Yuanchu smiled and said, "Whatever you want, ma'am, you can bring it to me as much as you can sell it for. I want all of it! The price is based on what's sold in the market, one penny and two pounds. Do you think that's okay?"

The aunt beamed with joy, "Oh, Madam Yuan is so refreshing. Just as you said, I will pull it out and bring it to you when I get back soon!"

"Ms. Yuan, I also have some crops at home. There are a lot of them. Can I harvest them?" Several other women also asked one after another.

"Collect it, collect it all, charge it at one penny or two catties, you can just send it over!"

The more radishes the better for the first day of the Yuan Dynasty. "Mom, aunt, do you have any extra cabbage at home? If you do, I will take it for five cents per catty."

Winter vegetables are needed on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
