Chapter 175, Third Watch
Qiao Mingshan rode his bicycle to the new store to take a look when the customers who had eaten in the morning had left and before noon was busy.
The two stores are not far away, and it takes only a few minutes to ride a bicycle. Crossing a road, the newly opened store is opposite.Zhou Xing put this bike to them, and sometimes they would ride it wherever they went, as a means of transportation.
At this time, no one was eating in the store, so they were cleaning and cleaning the tabletops in the store. The floor was dirty and had to be swept.Seeing the big brother coming, Qiao Minglang asked with a smile: "Why are you here, big brother?"
"I don't feel relieved, come and see your side."
The new store opened today. Originally, Qiao Mingshan wanted to come to the new store, but the old store couldn't do without people.He has opened a store at the farmer's market for so long and is familiar with the people nearby, so he is still more used to it.
So when the new store opened here, Qiao Mingshan didn't want to let go of the other side and come to the new store here.
After everyone discussed it, Qiao Mingshan asked his little cousin to bring people here first. After everyone is familiar with it, the store here will be handed over to someone familiar with it.After all, after school starts, the little cousin will continue to go back to school, so he can't be in the shop here every day.
Fortunately, the school is on holiday now, and the little cousin can temporarily take over the new store here. With the little cousin here, Qiao Mingshan is quite at ease.
Now that they are opening a second new store, they may open a third or fourth store in the future. Fortunately, they have many brothers. As long as these brothers are trained, one person can manage a store in the future.
"How about the newly opened business in the store today?" Qiao Mingshan asked.
"It's okay." Qiao Minglang told the lobby brother about the situation in the new store.
Qiao Mingshan nodded, thinking that it was okay, and said, "It's the first day we opened here, and we will definitely do better and better in the future."
"Well, this should be fine."
It's their first day of opening today. Although it's not as good as the old store's business, as long as they cook good food and people like it, their business will definitely get better and better.
Moreover, their shop is on the side of the road, opposite to the school, Qiao Minglang feels that as long as the shop here is well managed, the business will not be worse than their old shop, and it may even be better than the business over there.
"Brother, look at what this is." Qiao Mingyong took his elder brother to look at the refrigerator, showing off the big refrigerator in their store.
"Oh, refrigerator, where did you get such a big refrigerator?" Qiao Mingshan asked with surprise when he saw such a big refrigerator in the store.
"Ah Xing sent us off." Qiao Mingyong said.
"Ah Xing sent it...Where is A Xing?" Qiao Mingshan asked his little cousin, not seeing Zhou Xing in the shop.
"I just said I have something to do, so I left for a while, maybe I'll come back later." Qiao Minglang said.
"Oh, this kid, you spend so much money. Why did you give me such a big refrigerator? It's a lot of money." Qiao Mingshan liked such a big refrigerator in his heart.
But thinking that such a large refrigerator must cost a lot of money, he was a little reluctant to let him pay for it himself.Not everyone can afford refrigerators and color TVs these days, and only those with a little money at home are willing to spend that money.
Originally, there was a shortage of such a refrigerator in their store, but they were always reluctant to spend the money to buy it.
But now with such a large refrigerator, it will be much more convenient for them to store things in the future.
"It's all delivered. At worst, if he eats with us in the future, we don't need to charge him." Qiao Minglang wanted to return the refrigerator to Zhou Xing, but only if the person was willing to take it back.
He can still send small things back to that person, but it's one thing whether he can bear such a big guy or not.
"How much is our bowl of noodles? Even if he eats noodles with us for three years, it's not worth the price of such a refrigerator. Besides, we don't charge Ah Xing for meals."
Now that they got such a big refrigerator for nothing, how could they have earned it?
Qiao Mingshan thought of something, and said: "In the future, we can make more meatballs and store them in the refrigerator for several days. It is also okay to make them after they are sold out." Unfinished things can be put here, and they can be sold the next day.
"That's fine. We don't have to get up so early in the future, and we can sleep for a while." Qiao Mingyong's eyes lit up, and he felt that it would be a very happy thing for them not to have to get up so early in the future.
"You have a good idea. If you don't make meatballs, you have to do other things." Qiao Mingshan couldn't help but pour cold water on his younger brother.
"..." Qiao Mingyong's dream was shattered, and he felt that this world was too cruel.
"Put the meatballs here, will it affect the taste and texture of the meatballs?" Qiao Minglang was more worried about this issue.
"Probably not, let's put it in the frozen layer." Qiao Mingshan was not sure about this issue, so he said, "If you are worried, we can try it first. If it doesn't affect us, we can do it again."
"Okay." Qiao Minglang thought it was okay.
After staying in the new store for a while, Qiao Mingshan saw some customers coming in to eat. After talking to his brothers, Qiao Mingshan rode his bicycle back to the old store.
The new store opened on this day, and they had a busy day.
After the two stores closed, Qiao Minglang and his big brother sat together to count and check today's accounts.Compared with when the original old store opened, the business of the new store is better than that of the old store at that time.
There are many people eating at the farmer’s market, but many of them are hawkers and migrant workers who sell things there. Even if they have some money in their pockets, they are reluctant to eat too good food. Order a bowl of plain noodles, only a few of them are meaty.
The customers of their new store are mainly citizens living in the city. They have money in their pockets and are reluctant to eat.Qiao Minglang remembered that several tables of old gentlemen and old ladies brought their grandchildren to eat in the store this morning, and they would order another snack for the grandchildren, and some customers wanted to buy fish balls and pickled radish for them to eat at home. Yes, they also sold half a jar of sour radishes, which counted as money.
"In this way, the business of our new store will definitely be better than that of the old store in the future." Hearing such a call from his cousin, Qiao Mingshan understood a little bit. The locations of the two stores are different. The customers of things are also different, and the money the customers spend determines whether they can earn more money or less money.
Thinking about it this way, the business of their new store must be better than that of the old store, Qiao Mingshan was happy again.
"At present, it seems that this is possible. In the future, we still need to control the food in the store. As long as our food is good, there will definitely be more people who come to eat nearby."
"Well, this is what I want."
After counting the accounts, Qiao Minglang talked to his cousin for a while, then left the house where his cousin lived, got into the car parked at the door, and left with Zhou Xing.
"Big brother, I took Minglang away." Zhou Xing went to pick him up before dark after a busy day.
"Okay, drive slowly."
"Will do."
Seeing the motorcycle go away, Qiao Mingshan turned his head and went back to the house.
Although Qiao Mingyong and Qiao Mingliang lived in the newly rented house, they still like to come to the small house where their elder brother lives. The brothers are crowded into a small room, and there is no room for them to turn around. But they still like it.
The brothers stayed with their elder brother all the time, and they didn't go back to where they lived until very late.
After finally blowing away a group of people, Qiao Mingshan looked at the empty room with a helpless smile on his face.
***
After their new store opened, the business is getting better day by day, and the number of people eating in the store is getting more and more day by day.
When there are the most people every day, there are not enough seats in the store.
But this side doesn't look like the old store. The entrance is relatively large, and a few tables can be placed outside.In fact, it is okay to set up a few small tables here, but the weather is relatively cold now, and it is too cold to put the tables outside, and no one dares to sit outside.
So the guests who came later had to wait a while, or they could pack it up and take it home to eat.
Zhou Xing sent him to Xindian every day, and he didn't know where he went.
After the new store opened, Qiao Minglang came to the new store. He wanted to take advantage of this time to get acquainted with his two cousins, so that he could hand over the work of the store to them later.
They used to open small stalls in their hometown, and everyone has done these jobs, so they came to the city, but the environment was changed, and the jobs they did were still the same, so everyone got started faster.
It's just that in terms of kneading and making noodles, Qiao Minglang still needs to bring along two cousins.
After you have a refrigerator, you can make more meatballs at a time and put them in the refrigerator, and make another batch when the sales are almost the same.However, they didn't dare to keep the things in the refrigerator for too long. They would be sold out in three to five days at most.Otherwise, if it is left for too long, he is afraid that it will affect the taste and texture.
"Table No. [-] wants a bowl of fish noodles and a bowl of fish ball noodles. Add a stewed egg to the fish ball noodles..."
"it is good."
After Qiao Minglang cooked the noodles for a while, another cousin would do the cooking, and everyone took turns to work.In this way, even if he goes back to school in the next year, he will leave it to his cousins, and they will know how to do these things.
The brothers get up early every day, and after a busy day, the money they earn is their daily harvest.Although this kind of life is a bit boring and tiring, compared to earning so much money, they never dared to think about it before.
The business in the store is getting better day by day, and the brothers are also full of energy day by day...
