Siheyuan: I, an ordinary resident, the king of chefs

No matter whether it was yesterday or today, as long as Uncle Wang eats a dish, he can comment on the essence of it.

This was the experience he gained from eating in so many restaurants and hotels in the capital. If he were cooking when he was in his twenties, he would be one of the most famous chefs.

It’s just that the old man just wants to be a free and easy person now, eat some delicious food in the capital, and be a gourmet in peace.

After the siblings and Uncle Wang finished eating all the food in front of them, Uncle Wang leaned back on the stool with great satisfaction.

He was happily savoring the twice-cooked pork he had just eaten, reluctant to leave.

Suddenly, Uncle Wang seemed to have thought of something, and he said to Zhang Liang:

"Zhang Liang, since your family is now setting up a stall here to do business, I still need to remind you."

"While it's still early, I advise you to get a stall permit now."

Zhang Lin heard what Uncle Wang said and asked with some doubt:

"Why does Uncle Wang need a permit to set up a stall? I see that the vendors around here don't have one."

Uncle Wang smiled and shook his head, explaining:

"They usually set up stalls here to do business, and not many people would be jealous."

"But your family is different. Once you set up your stall, all the diners will come to you, which will definitely arouse the jealousy of other restaurants and hotels."

"Although you haven't encountered any problems selling stir-fried dishes yet, you never know if someone will take advantage of the fact that you don't have a license to do something wrong."

"Since we still have some spare time, the sooner we get the permit, the better."

Zhang Liang understood what Master Wang meant, smiled and nodded, thanked him and said:

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Wang."

When Zhang Liang said this, his eyes fell on Cuixuan Tower not far away.

The reason why he wanted to open the stall here was, on the one hand, to attract diners from Cuixuanlou.

However, this action will sooner or later offend the people of Cuixuanlou. They have been running the restaurant for so many years, and they have plenty of time to deal with people selling stir-fried dishes at stalls.

If I don't get a stall license now, I might be in trouble tomorrow.

Thinking of this, Zhang Liang continued to say to Uncle Wang:

"We don't have anything to do this afternoon. We'll get the business license after we close the stall."

Uncle Wang heard Zhang Liang's answer and nodded with a smile:

"Okay then, my old man will leave first."

After Uncle Wang finished speaking, he stood up, patted his clothes and left.

"Well, Uncle Wang, please take care."

After watching Uncle Wang walk away, the brothers and sisters began to pack up the stall they had set up today.

After almost finishing packing, Zhang Liang was about to push the cart to the market to buy some things when he saw Zhang Lin running up to him mysteriously.

The little girl had a smile on her face and held a small box in her hand. She said to Zhang Liang:

"Third brother, guess how much money we made today?"

Zhang Liang looked at Zhang Lin's happy face and said with a smile:

"Look at the way you're smiling, you must have made a lot of money, right? More than a hundred?"

Zhang Lin opened the small box in his arms and said in surprise:

"More than that, we sold a total of 212 dollars today!!"

"If we deduct the cost of buying vegetables, we've made a net profit of one hundred and eighty dollars today! One hundred and eighty!!"

"And the money my second sister made from selling braised meat next door today hasn't been taken into account. After deducting the cost, she made a total of more than 80 yuan!"

"Totaling together, we've earned over two hundred and sixty today! Oh my God, that's a lot of money!"

Zhang Liang smiled and nodded. He thought for a while and said:

"It seems that it is right for us to set up two stalls, one selling stir-fried vegetables and the other selling braised meat. I was worried before that my second sister would be too busy, but now it seems that this is not a problem."

Zhang Lin smiled and nodded, and quickly replied:

"Yes, let's put the braised meat and cold dishes into brown paper bags. When customers come, they can pay with one hand and receive the braised meat with the other. It's so convenient!"

"Third brother, you are the smart one!"

Zhang Hechun had also tidied up the table at this time. Hearing Zhang Lin's words, he said in surprise:

"You just said that our stall, plus my second sister's stall, made a total of two hundred and sixty!?!"

Zhang Lin smiled and nodded:

"Yes! We made two hundred and sixty today!"

Zhang Hechun felt like he was dreaming. Yesterday, he and Zhang Liang and others set up a stall to sell stir-fried dishes and made over a hundred yuan. He thought that was the limit, but he didn't expect that he doubled it today!

When he thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh in surprise:

"Oh my god, that's two hundred and sixty yuan! I have to work in a steel mill for more than a year to earn this much money!"

"We've only been setting up the stall for the whole morning today, and it's not even two o'clock yet, and we've already made two hundred and sixty!"

He quickly looked at Zhang Lin:

"Hurry, hurry, pinch me and let me know this is real!"

Zhang Lin didn't hesitate and pinched Zhang Hechun's arm hard.

"what!"

Zhang Hechun was pinched by Zhang Lin and it hurt, but his face was still filled with a happy smile. He sighed and said:

"Oh my god, this is real. I'm not dreaming. We really made so much money in one day!"

Zhang Man also smiled and sighed:

"Yeah, I thought it was incredible when I heard you guys say yesterday that you can make so much money by setting up a stall."

"Even if I see you putting the money in front of me, I still find it unrealistic!"

"I didn't expect that as soon as I set up the stall today, so many customers bought all the braised meat in one go. I now understand why we can make so much money!"

"When I was setting up a stall with you guys to sell stir-fried dishes today, I was so busy that I couldn't find my way around. I never stopped. With such a business, it's only right that we make so much money!"

"My mom and I couldn't earn this 260 yuan even if we worked odd jobs for a whole year, and now it's just placed in front of us!"

There is a reason why Zhang Man and Zhang Hechun were so surprised.

After all, their family used to live on Zhang Hechun's monthly salary of more than 20 yuan.

Normally, even if you have a few cents, you have to spend it carefully. When you see meat, you can't bear to look at it for even a second and quickly look away.

Why? Because they don’t have the money to buy it!

But now it’s different. They can actually earn more than 200 yuan in a day, which means their family’s annual income is earned in one day!
