Chapter 74 Business is booming
Before dawn, Lin Yuzhu was awakened by her two children. She fed her milk and changed her diapers and coaxed her two children to sleep. She immediately went to the kitchen to prepare.
The pig offals have not been brought back yet. Lin Yuzhu is planning to boil the marinade in a pot today and scoop it into a bowl when needed.
Clean the large pot and boil the water. The marinade was prepared a few days ago. These marinades are particularly fragrant when the marinade was dried and the pigs were dried and added every day when the braised pigs were dried and all the bowls were placed. Zhang Bihua and Lin got up at the right time.
After cooking three bowls of noodles, Zhang Bihua missed An An and Pingping Ping a little and said, "I don't know how the two children are in the Mansion City."
Because there are Qianyu and Qianxun at home, and the noodle shop is open and worried that it will not be able to take care of it, Li He'er took the two children to Fucheng. Someone from Li He'er's parents' family went to Fucheng to take care of the two children.
But after only a few days of separation, I missed the two of them very much.
Lin Yuzhu was not worried about Lin Yushu before, but after the opening of the noodle shop in the county town, he began to worry.
The business was so hot yesterday, but I guess the prefecture city was also very busy. The most important thing is that only Lin Yushu and Li Heer's mother and sister-in-law helped in the palace. They worried, "An An and Pingping are sensible children, and they should not cause trouble for their brothers and the others. What I am worried about is whether the noodle restaurant business is busy."
Lin Laoshi stood up and packed up the empty bowl on the table and said, "Don't worry about Yushu. He has also known many people in the city. He told me before that he would hire someone if he was too busy."
It’s useless to worry now, and Lin Yuzhu also understands this. Instead of worrying about Lin Yushu, it’s better to think carefully about how to deal with the business that is too good today.
Lin Laoshi put the bowls and chopsticks in the wooden basin in the yard, and then went out to the vegetable market. It was still early, so it was just right to go to the vegetable market to get the pigs back and braised.
Yesterday, all the pigs were sold out of water. I just boiled water in the pot and poured the old braised into the pot. Then I put a few more braised ingredients and waited for Lin to return honestly.
The noodle restaurant is very close to the vegetable market. The owners of the meat stalls had already prepared the pigs to be put into the water. Lin Laoshi just went to get it and took it home. When he took the pigs to the backyard, Zhang Bihua and Lin Yuzhu tacitly threw pig livers and other more convenient braised ones into the pot. The pig intestine needs to be cleaned properly. There is a stream outside the back door of the backyard, which is more convenient to draw water. The water you cleaned for the first time was poured into the water bucket. When it was cleaned again, it was directly in the stream. As for the last time, it was drilled well water.
The pork liver that was thrown into the pot was already braised. Zhang Bihua and Lin Yuzhu took the things together, and then put the pig intestine and cooked it.
Although Zhang Bihua was tired, she was full of energy. After all, she made more than 300 cents a day in the noodle restaurant yesterday. This was something I never dared to think about before. The net profit of one or two taels of silver a day! In a month, she had more than 30 taels of silver and more than 300 taels of silver a year. She was excited when she thought about it.
When you have money, you can buy a house in the county or government city, and you can also go back to the village to buy more land.
She has lived for decades and suffered all kinds of hardships. In the past, she had no hope for hard work, but now she is different. She can see hope after hard work.
After cutting the pig distillery, Lin Yuzhu opened the noodle shops because she calculated the time and calculated that the city gate was opened.
After opening the door, diners came to the door.
The noodle restaurant business was particularly good yesterday, which led to many diners leaving before they could eat noodles. So some people living in the county came early this morning.
Although there are many noodle stalls in the city that sell vegetarian noodles for two cents a bowl, the taste is as delicious as the ones added to the Lin Noodle Restaurant. Not to mention how delicious and fragrant the marinade is, the oil flowers floating on the noodles feel comfortable. If you pay more for a bowl of pig noodles, that is the real enjoyment.
If you have business, you will naturally have to greet him. Lin Yuzhu asked the guests to sit down, and then went to the kitchen after asking what noodles he wanted.
Just as the pig intestine in the pot was cooked, I picked up the pig intestine and hung it aside, scooped a bucket of marinade and kept it aside. This one was left as an old marinade and must not be used.
The remaining marinade was packed by Zhang Bihua in two other wooden barrels, which can be used today.
Scoop water from a small pot into a large pot and cook noodles quickly underneath.
There are not many vegetables in this season, especially green leafy vegetables. Apart from some wild vegetables that can be eaten in winter, there are only some tangerines and radishes hidden in their cellars. Lin Yuzhu thinks a single bowl of noodles is not good, so she needs to add some dishes.
The noodles in the pot were cooked before Cailian and the other three arrived. Kang Xiuxiu immediately brought the noodles to the front hall. Lin Yuzhu took this time to go to the vegetable market not far away. After a walk around, she saw many people selling ginger and wild vegetables, which were not expensive, especially shepherd's purse, which cost only two cents per pound.
I immediately bought five kilograms and bought two kilograms of green onions. I prepared a few vegetables to add to each bowl of noodles. Not only was the color good and it was more appetizing, but it was also nutritious.
Of course, her main purpose is to look good, cook orders and sprinkle some chopped green onions, which makes the noodles look more beautiful.
There are many noodle restaurants in the city. Their noodles are unique and attractive, but to stabilize the diners, you have to think of ways elsewhere.
As more and more people on the streets, the business of the noodle restaurant is getting better and better. More people come to order plain noodles, but more people order pig noodles that cost four cents a bowl.
It seems that everyone is no longer stingy with the two cents, and Lin Yuzhu has also observed carefully that most of the people who eat vegetarian noodles are from families with poor conditions outside the city. They also saw two people eating a bowl of noodles, while most of the noodles that order four cents a bowl of noodles are better dressed, which is in line with her previous guess.
Business is still booming today, especially when many people returned yesterday, they said word of mouth. More and more people know that there is a Lin’s noodle restaurant in the city. A bowl of noodles not only has a lot of weight and good taste, but most importantly, it has more oil.
The merchants can eat meat several times a year, and a pound of meat costs more than ten cents. Who is willing to eat meat often? They are reluctant to buy any meat during the Chinese New Year and the holidays.
The villagers cannot afford to spend too much, but the vegetarian noodles costing two cents a bowl can still be consumed more, so many people go to the city to sell things when they are hungry. When they come to Lin’s Noodle Restaurant to eat a bowl of marinated noodles, they can not only satisfy their cravings, but also make them more oily in their stomachs.
Furthermore, two cents are the money of two steamed buns. A bowl of vegetarian noodles tastes good and can be eaten with soup. This also led to Lin Yuzhu's discovering that she had a wrong idea today. Not only did the business not get worse, but it was even better than yesterday.
She started helping since she got back from buying vegetables, so she didn't even have time to rest. Kang Xiuxiu kept washing dishes, while Lin Yuzhu was only responsible for collecting money. Lin Laoshi's business was good, and she couldn't do without people. Even she could only take time to feed Qianyu and Qianxun.
Fortunately, the two children slept and cried when they were full, which made her feel much more relaxed.
