Cannon fodder attack only wants to farm

Chapter 64 Preparations before opening the store

Yamen servants do not live on monthly money.Many yamen servants have their own shops or joint stock trading.

As soon as the news of He Zifeng's opening of the store came out, several of his subordinates wanted to make a big opening for him.

But He Zifeng said no, he found the black market to convert the gold into silver, and returned the money from the bank.Such a big shop can't just open a porridge shop.I plan to sell some meals at noon, and some drinks in the evening.

He Zifeng was afraid that the stall would be spread out too much and his wife would suffer.He even went to the Yahang to find someone in charge, and asked if there was anyone who could cook, he wanted to recruit some!

Ya Xing was a little worried, and said: "Yes, there are, but they are not dead contracts." These rich people in the county government like to hold everyone in their hands. It's not uncommon for a cook you like to pack and give away directly.

He Zifeng said: "Go and talk." Then he went to have a look.

There are a total of two cooks on Yaxing's side looking for work now. One is a cook who is good at making pastries. She said that she has also been taught by a master chef in the back kitchen.

Looking white and clean, the hands are smooth without any calluses.It is estimated that it is in the small kitchen of a wealthy family.Steamed cakes and the like for the nobles in the back house.

He was looking for someone who could work.

The other person made Yaxing a little embarrassed.But that's all I've said before, so I had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "This man is a man with a family." It's a man in his 30s, his wife can cook some home-cooked dishes, and he has three children.The older one was only ten years old, and the younger one was four years old, who was as old as Ranran, and they were all brought with them.

And the asking price is not low, the couple of them need five hundred cash a month.Generally, it is only five taels of silver to buy a personal death contract.They need six taels of silver a year, how is that possible?

He still has the common fault of a craftsman, a little arrogance, even when he saw He Zifeng knew that he was a deputy head catcher, he didn't bow his knees, and his waist was still straight.

He Zifeng said: "What will you do?"

"Frying, frying, frying, stewing, everything. My wife can help me." He said.

He Zifeng said: "Can you cook rice in a big pot?" This big pot of rice is different from a small stove.With so many servings and how much seasoning, you have to be careful.And you need to have a lot of strength. Stir-frying a big pot of rice is a hard work.

This person's name is Zhang Meng, and everyone calls him Master Zhang. He Zifeng said at this moment, "Yes."

He Zifeng then said to the manager of the shop, "Let me use your kitchen." The shop in the county has all kinds of business, and they have their own small kitchens.

Then let him show his skills. He has been looking for a job here for a month.And it's not local, and the little money I have on me has been spent, so I want to find a good owner as soon as possible.He is an adult who can make do with it, but he feels distressed when the child jolts him.

He Zifeng only asked him to cook one dish he was good at.He glanced at the kitchen and saw only a few wilted eggplants, so he made a stewed eggplant with sauce.

Seeing that the pot caught fire when he searched it, he didn't affect the cooking at all, and the fragrance permeated in a short while.

Even the manager said: "This is the first time he has shown his skills, and he still has a few tricks!" He swallowed, being fooled by him like this.I can't wait to get a bowl of rice and eat it.

After cooking, He Zifeng tasted it.Sure enough, it is salty, fragrant and soft, suitable for a staple food.

The small kitchen here is not complete with seasoning, and he can still make it like this, which shows that his ability is indeed not small.

Then he said to him: "Five hundred Wen is fine, but it may be busy, we plan to give porridge to build a porridge shop." There must be a lot of people.There are also arrangements for noon and evening. I don't know if he can stand up.

When Master Zhang heard that He Zifeng intended to use him, he immediately said: "Yes." Afterwards, he was still a little hard to say, He Zifeng said: "You can say anything."

Master Zhang said: "I don't have a place to live now, can I live in the store at night?" Putting two tables together can sleep people, but they can't live if the boss doesn't want to.

He Zifeng said: "Of course." But he told them the rules here: "Be sure to pay attention to hygiene, and don't have any habit of petty theft." He is now the fourth in command of the yamen, if he really doesn't have eyes , but it was directly in his hands.

Master Zhang said: "Neither my wife nor I are that kind of person."

He Zifeng then took the man over.

As soon as they went, Xie Rui, Lin Feng and Zhou Hao were at the door.

Ever since they learned that He Zifeng was going to open a restaurant, they were more active than He Zifeng, and they all had people around them.

Xie Rui said: "Brother He definitely doesn't have time to look for the accountant. This is my little Chen. Although he is young, he is very capable. I will guarantee this person. If there is anything he needs, Brother He will come to me."

Lin Feng smiled and said: "Brother He, you have to criticize Xie Rui, even the accountant has been found, isn't this a slap in the face of the brothers, I brought this waiter."

Zhou Hao said: "Hey, why don't you think of going together, so I brought a waiter. I thought about giving Brother He a big gift by surprise, but now look at it, you are too thieves, and you don't even tell your brother if you make any moves. .” If he hadn’t prepared, he would have fallen behind these two people.

They all handed over their deeds.Opening a store is not that easy.

They also thought of what He Zifeng thought, and helped him solve the problem of lack of people in front of him.

All of a sudden, the small shop that He Zifeng and Qiuyu wanted to open became regular.

He Zifeng said, "Thank you, brothers."

"What is this?" Lin Feng said, "You can do whatever you want."

Hand over the person to He Zifeng, and they left.

The accountant is called Xiao Chen, who is a brother.One of the other two waiters is Xiaobing and the other is Dabao.

Their deeds were on He Zifeng's side, and they kowtowed to He Zifeng.

He Zifeng explained the rules again, and he must be warm to the guests.I was given a pocket of [-] Wen every month, and I lived and boarded in the store, and I had three meals a day in the store.After five years of service, they can be returned to their body deeds.Those who want to do it can stay, and those who don't want to do it can go back.This is a big pie for a few people who sold themselves into slavery.

Rich people just like to squeeze this body to death.Not only are they slaves, but even their children and grandchildren are slaves.Once enslaved, it will be difficult to regain freedom, and it is even more common to be gifted at will like this.

But luckily their new owner is a nice guy!

The most important thing for them now is to clean the place first.No one has been here for a long time, and cobwebs have formed on the walls.

The tables, chairs, and benches are also covered with dust. If you wipe it lightly with a damp rag, the dust on it will almost curl up.

You have to clean it up three or four times before you can see what it looks like.

He Zifeng and Qiuyu went to buy some chicken, duck, fish, firewood, rice, oil and salt.And food.

I purchased a full cart of things and pulled them back.

There are also various stoves and large bamboo tubes for porridge.All need to be customized.

There are also brand new bowls, chopsticks and plates.

Master Zhang's three children are also very good. The two older ones can help with running the hall, and the younger one also follows his mother to help wipe things. He Zifeng is a father, and he likes children when he sees them.Then he picked up the youngest son of Master Zhang's family.The little guy is called Jiaxuan.Seeing that He Zifeng was a little cautious, he said, "Uncle."

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly asked the child to call him the boss, but He Zifeng said, "It's good to call him uncle. Uncle also has a little brother who is as old as you. When he comes back from rest next time, let him take you to play."

The family preached: "Thank you, Uncle." He Zifeng hugged him for a while and put it on the ground, the little guy ran away shyly.

Qiuyu settled them down and went back.It was Qiuyu who was careful, and found four beddings when she returned to the warehouse.The store has just been cleaned up, and there is nothing there yet. It would be more convenient for them to have a bedding.During the day, I pack the quilts back to the small warehouse.Take it out after cleaning at night.

He Zifeng hugged Qiuyu, kissed him, and said, "You're still thoughtful."

Qiuyu heard this and said, "You can't do without me."

He Zifeng said: "Of course!"

The day when the store will open is scheduled for three days later.I made four types of porridge, one is millet porridge, one is sweet porridge with miscellaneous grains, one is sweet porridge with pumpkin, and the other is salty vegetable porridge. Put it on, roll it open and season it, the rice will be soft and rotten.The more it cooks, the more fragrant it becomes.

Most of these grains are new grains recovered from the countryside, and a small part is bought in grain stores.However, seeing that He Zifeng wanted these things, the grain store offered them the lowest price, so they built a pergola outside.

Pour the cooked porridge into a huge bamboo tube, covered with a lid to keep it warm.

There weren't too many people in this street, but they were brought out by the scent wafting from this street in the early morning, so I was so hungry.

Many people came here looking for the taste.

On the first day of the opening, He Zifeng and Qiuyu also came early. When they heard that they were opening, Fang also let go of his basket weaving business and came to help them.

After a while, someone asked, "How do you sell this porridge?"

Xiaobing warmly entertained: "Our boss wants to do good deeds for our county. The first bowl is free of charge, and the second bowl is a penny."

The people who just arrived were stunned. The first bowl of porridge that smells so delicious doesn't cost money, what are you kidding?
