I sold snacks in ancient times

Two days later, the rice shop was closed.Bags of rice were sold at low prices, and rice tanks and other items were also removed one by one.After a while, the store seemed empty.

Qi Yongfan was busy with business at that time, looked back at the dilapidated rice store, and casually said: "The guy who used to come here often is called Huang Liang, right? Where did he go?"

Liu Yuanzi was standing beside him, spooning the noodle soup, and said, "The rice store is going to be sold, so he's going to the county to find a job."

Qi Yongfan said: "Let's talk earlier, let him come to my place to help."

Liu Yuanzi was stunned for a moment, and said: "There should be no shortage of people in the stall, right? I can take care of it by myself."

Qi Yongfan said: "Well, but I'm going to open a shop soon, and there must be a shortage of manpower."

He pointed to the rice shop and said, "I've already listed this shop, and I can move in after tidying up in a few days."

Liu Yuanzi was silent.Her feelings for Huang Liang are contradictory.Huang Liang treated her very well, but before that, she had never received such sincerity, so she was very moved.However, she looked down on Huang Liang. In the final analysis, it was because he had no money.

Even she earns more than him every month...

She didn't know when she found herself changed.

No longer the carefree country girl she used to be, with more money in her pocket, she began to yearn for life outside.

As for Ruyi Langjun... She glanced back at Qi Yongfan.

There is no doubt that Big Brother Qi is the best and most unforgettable man she has ever met in her life.This is the person she has been thinking about for a long time.

But she clearly understood that the other party didn't like herself.If you don't like it now, you won't like it later.There seems to be a gap between her and Big Brother Qi that will never be bridged.

It's like cats like to eat fish, but cats can't go into the water.

Qi Yongfan asked her: "Is Huang Liang in town? Or has he gone to the county?"

Liu Yuanzi: "I don't know."

Qi Yongfan: "That kid likes you, and originally wanted to match you two..."

Liu Yuanzi lowered his head to fish for noodles.

After buying the rice shop, Qi Yongfan asked someone to start building a small restaurant.The area of ​​the store is not large. To be honest, he originally wanted to sell the Longyou Tavern opposite.In contrast, the upper and lower floors of Longyou are more suitable for a restaurant.

But he couldn't find the shopkeeper Longyou, Xiao Er said that the shopkeeper had gone to the county, and the tavern might continue to open in the future, and it would not sell it.

It took a full 30 taels of silver to shop the rice under the plate.Although Qi Yongfan has a lot of property now, he still felt a little distressed when he gave it away.In addition to the cost of decoration, buying tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks, more than fifty taels are gone.

It turned out that the decoration of the rice shop was all made of solid wood, plus Qi Yongfan's messy drawings, and finally created an antique shop.A small circle of fence is blocked at the door, which is used as an open-air seat, and there are five tables and chairs in total.And there are only eight in the store.The layout is compact, but it is warm.

Now that the store has opened, only one employee like Liu Yuanzi is definitely not enough.Qi Yongfan hurried, and asked Chen Sheng to find a few steady and stable young people in the town, a man and a woman, who were offered a slightly lower salary than Liu Yuanzi, and it was agreed in advance that they would continue to increase after working for a long time.

In the past three days like this, Qi Yongfan was busy decorating and hiring people, or planning a new menu, leaving the stall to Liu Yuanzi to manage, and even forgot about going to Yin Xu's house for a drink.

All kinds of trivial things piled up, keeping him busy.I get up to work before dawn every day, and at night I am so tired that my back hurts, and I almost fall asleep when I get back to the car.

Finally, at the end of winter, the snack shop listed as "Xia Xing Tavern" officially opened.

……

On this day, Qi Yongfan got up very early.After washing up, he walked into the small kitchen and cooked a very hearty breakfast.Today is the first day of opening the store, and he is determined to reward himself with something delicious.

First open the refrigerator to see what ingredients are available.Grab a handful of corn kernels, peas, cut a little ham and shrimp, add the leftover rice from yesterday and stir fry in the oil pan.

He took out another bottle of iced Coke and poured a glass on the side.It may be that he has eaten too many snacks recently. He is a little tired of eating those instant foods, and prefers to cook them himself.

There was also a catty of pork hind legs hanging in the well outside, which was given to him by Chen Sheng to celebrate the opening of the shop.He went to get it, cut it into thin slices, boiled it in a pot with water, and sprinkled a few handfuls of monosodium glutamate and salt.

There are many ways to make pork, but he likes this simple one because it saves trouble.As a bachelor, you live alone and no one sees you. Why do you need so much sense of ritual?

After eating this greasy breakfast, Qi Yongfan went to the small courtyard to pack the goods.There are a lot of things to sell today, such as milk, bread, instant noodles, etc., as well as drinks and skewers.

Now that the store was opened, the business hours could not be so late. He changed it to open in the afternoon and taught the new employee Ah San how to barbecue.

When he was about to go out, he heard a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" He asked as he walked out, pushed open the door, bumped into Yin Xu head-on, froze for a moment, and said, "Is there something wrong?"

Yin Xu glanced at his small courtyard with his head.Qi Yongfan quickly blocked the other party's sight with his body, and said, "I've been too busy these days, I forgot to bring you melon seeds..."

"No problem." Yin Xu said lightly, "I just want to come and see you."

These words slipped into Qi Yongfan's ears and made his heart beat innocently.He touched his nose and slammed the door shut with a bang.

Yin Xu standing outside the door: "..."

Qi Yongfan almost ran 800 meters to the snack cart, grabbed a sack, tore open the five-spice melon seeds and poured them in desperately.

He didn't know how long he had been down, but he finally calmed down, got out of the car with a heavy sack, and opened the door again.

Yin Xu has already left.There was no one outside the door.

He felt a little lost.He also secretly scolded himself for being trampled, did he feel happy when he saw a good-looking man and said nasty words?

Thinking about it this way, spring seems to be coming soon...

He carried out the wooden cart carrying the goods, locked the gate, and put the bag of melon seeds weighing about three to four catties at the gate of Yin Xu's house.He knocked on the door, and left without waiting for anyone to open the door.

……

The opening of the new store is really exciting.Qi Yongfan hung up the plaque he entrusted the carpenter to lay up a few days ago, engraved with the four retro characters of "Xia Xing Tavern" shining in the sun.

How can there be such a good plaque in the shop next to it? Even if it is a bookstore, it is just a casual idea, and it cannot afford such high-quality wood.

Chen Sheng glanced at the plaque and said, "Didn't it cost a lot of money to make this guy?"

Qi Yongfan stretched out five fingers and said, "It's about the same number."

Chen Sheng: "Five taels of silver?"

Qi Yongfan: "Yes."

Chen Sheng shook his head and said, "Sinister, you are so rich."

In addition, Qi Yongfan also posted notices about buying one get one free three days before the opening of the new store, and set off a firecracker in the morning, which was crackling, attracting most of the townspeople to watch the excitement.

The Great Yin Dynasty had gunpowder, but the amount was very small. It had already been used in some military weapons, and the formula was mainly in the hands of the state.Occasionally, there are still some firecrackers and other things circulating in the market, but the price is extremely high.

This bundle of firecrackers was bought by Qi Yongfan for two taels of silver from a traveling merchant in the town.

The store was kept clean.There is a bamboo tube on each table, which is used to place skewered bamboo sticks.There is a special seasoning station. If diners feel that it is not spicy or sour enough, they can come to buy vinegar, chili powder or soy sauce.

In the morning, there were quite a few guests who came to see the excitement, but not many actually came to buy food.I guess everyone is not hungry yet.A few scholars who were about to go to the private school hurried past, bought bread and milk, packed them and ate them while walking.

Qi Yongfan wrote a new food list, this time he did not use blank paper, but bought a good one from the bookstore, which is waterproof and oil-proof, can be stored for many years, and pasted on the wall of the tavern lobby, Extra eye-catching.

He found that writing on this kind of announcement with a charcoal pencil can be erased with an eraser...

He wants to eat fruit very much recently, but winter is not the season for fruit, so he can only gnaw on dried fruit.He thought that the ancients would also like to eat it, so he added it to the menu as a separate appetizer.

And now he not only sells wine, but also writes down the types of wine on the food list.Liquor is more expensive, beer is cheaper, and there are fruity cocktails, which are a perfect match with dried fruit.

So he wrote a small line on the food list: Fruit wine and dried fruit are better, and you can get a five-cent discount if you order the two together.

Don't underestimate the five cents.Even modern people who have seen a lot of business routines will still choose the cheaper store because of a few cents when shopping, let alone ancient people who have never seen the world.

At noon, Guan Gu brought his servants to the tavern to eat. Originally, he only planned to eat instant noodles, but he accidentally saw this line of small characters, and immediately made a decision: "Bring me a pot of fruit wine and that...dried mango .”

"Okay." Liu Yuanzi took the list and wrote it down, and then sent it to the back kitchen for Ah San to assemble the food.

Qi Yongfan assigned their own jobs to the employees in the tavern.Liu Yuanzi is good-looking, and he can write down dishes with charcoal, and is responsible for serving the dishes in the hall.Ah San is down-to-earth and steady. She used to work as a handyman in a restaurant and was in charge of the back kitchen.As for the other woman, named Xia Ruyi, she was divorced by her husband's family the year before last, and now she lives alone in her mother's house, unwilling to eat free rice and be looked down upon by others, so she came out to work.She looked honest and stable, and was responsible for collecting money.

There are many kinds of dried fruits, such as dried mangoes, raisins, dried plums, dried peaches, etc.

These fruits are available in the local area of ​​Great Yin, and it is not awkward to sell them.In fact, there are also dried and candied fruit sellers in the town, but they are expensive and too sweet, so no one likes them except children and women.

Dried mangoes are definitely not available in the market.Because mangoes are produced in the tropics, the geographical location of Dayin is similar to that of ancient China. They are only found in Hainan. They are transported to the palace as tributes every year, and they are deeply loved by the emperor.

You must know that Hainan and the capital are separated by hundreds of thousands of miles, and mangoes are transported only by horses and manpower. I don’t know how many horses have to run to death, and how much manpower and material resources are spent, in order to have intact and fresh mangoes for the royal family to taste.

As for ordinary people, it is impossible to eat aristocratic fruit like "mango" in this life.

Guan Gu had never heard of mango, so he ordered this dish out of curiosity.When the dried fruit came up, there were only two or three slices on a small plate, and it was worth 500 Wen.

When you get closer, you can smell a strange light fragrance.

Guan Gu couldn't wait to grab a piece and chew it.Quite sweet, but different from those candied fruit, quite refreshing.

Seeing him eating so happily, the boy couldn't help swallowing two mouthfuls of saliva.

However, not long after Guan Gu finished eating the dried mango, red spots appeared all over his body.

The author has something to say: Poor Guan Gu, allergic to mango...

Thanks to the little angel who irrigated [nutrient solution]:

One bottle of happiness every day;

Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
