On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle
Chapter 201 Review
Song Xile didn't care about the inquiring looks of others and continued to promote his own barbecue skewers.
Soon, a middle-aged man who looked like a manager came over.
When he approached, his eyes inadvertently swept across the lamb skewers on the plate, and the tempting aroma instantly aroused his appetite.
The man in charge stood still, staring at the skewers on the plate and asked, "This skewers smells pretty good, how much is it?"
Seeing this, Song Xile smiled brightly. She quickly took a string of golden lamb skewers from the plate and handed it to the man in charge.
At the same time, he said enthusiastically: "Sir, this grilled lamb kebab is a specialty snack of our stall. It costs two cents for one kebab, and three cents for two kebabs. Would you like to try it first and see if it suits your taste?"
The middle-aged manager took the kebab and took a bite.
Suddenly, the tender meat and unique aroma filled his mouth, making his eyes light up.
He had eaten many grilled skewers, but this was the first time he had tried lamb skewers with such unique flavor and unforgettable taste.
"Well, not bad! The lamb skewers are roasted to perfection. They are tender and fragrant, and the taste is also very good." The man in charge nodded in satisfaction.
He turned his gaze back to the boiling mutton soup in the pot.
A few pieces of emerald green onion float in the milky white soup, exuding an enticing aroma.
He pointed at the mutton offal soup in the pot and asked, "How do you sell this mutton offal soup?"
"This mutton soup is also one of our specialties here, five cents a bowl." Song Xile introduced enthusiastically.
The man in charge nodded, waved his hand, and said decisively: "Okay! Then give me twelve bowls of mutton soup and a hundred skewers of barbecue, and send them there."
After saying that, he pointed to the shore not far from them and signaled Song Xile to deliver the food there later.
Song Xile agreed immediately.
The steward ordered the food, fished out his purse, and asked, "How much is all this?"
"The grilled skewers are 150 wen, and the mutton offal soup is 60 wen, a total of 210 wen."
The man in charge took a curious look at the young lady in front of him. He didn't expect that the young lady was so good at arithmetic.
He rummaged through his purse and found only a silver coin worth one tael. He handed it to Song Xile and said, "Here is one tael. Don't change it for now. We are from the Zhao family. Next time we patronize your business, we will use the remaining silver to offset the difference."
Song Xile naturally agreed.
But she was thinking in her heart that she should prepare some charcoal pencils for her second brother next time to make it easier for her to keep accounts.
This is how business is done. Once opened, people will start to come in one after another, especially after Song Xile brought food to the Zhao family who were resting on the shore.
The other family managers saw their team members looking at the Zhao family eating skewers with envy, and in order to boost morale and not fall behind, they all decided to eat with Song Xile.
When the people who were visiting Yun Lake saw how good the business was, more and more people came to buy food. The food that they thought would be sold out until the evening was sold out by the afternoon.
After the event was over, when Song An was packing up to go home, he was still confused. He had expected the kebab business to be good, but he didn't expect it to be so good.
After returning home, Song Xile first thanked Qian Feng and Chang An, "Thanks to your help today, otherwise there would be a lot of chaos."
"Don't be polite, sister-in-law. If you need anything, just ask Chang'an to handle it."
Song Xile agreed with a smile, but he started thinking about hiring someone in his mind.
There were many things that were not taken into consideration and the shortcomings on the first day which were understandable, but she would definitely need to make adjustments for the subsequent deficiencies.
He let the others go back to the house to rest first, and then he took his second brother to review the shortcomings of the day.
“Although we have sold all the food today, it was still a bit hectic. If it weren’t for Yun You and the others helping us today, I’m afraid the stall would be even more chaotic.”
Song An nodded, "I was just about to talk to my younger sister about this. My brother-in-law and Mr. Qian have to prepare for the college entrance examination, and we can't let them waste their time on these trivial matters."
The purpose of their trip is to help their brother-in-law pass the exam. As for making money, it is just a by-product. They cannot put the cart before the horse.
Song Xile nodded, "In a moment, I'll ask the cook to recommend three helpers who are flexible. One will be responsible for selling the mutton offal soup, one will be responsible for clearing the dishes and cleaning, and the other will be responsible for helping you."
Song An, "Okay, I'll listen to you on this matter."
Speaking of the lack of manpower, Song An thought back to today when there was a shortage of bowls, chopsticks, tables and chairs, which led to some customers being unwilling to wait longer and thus losing customers.
He suggested, "Should we bring a few more sets of dishes and chopsticks tomorrow?"
"And do you want to buy a few more sets of tables and chairs?"
Song Xile took into consideration that there were so many customers at a time when the flow of people was not the highest. In the future, as more and more people came to participate in the dragon boat race, business would only be busier than it is now.
She thought about it and nodded, "Okay, then my second brother will go buy two sets of tables and chairs, as well as tableware later."
Song An immediately stood up and said, “I’ll go right away.”
Song Xile grabbed Song An who was about to stand up and said, "Second brother, there is no rush. First, count the money you earned today and see how much money you earned in total today."
Song An's eyes lit up, and he excitedly opened the cash box on the table and began to count carefully.
Most of the money in the money box was copper coins. As he counted them, he strung the coins together with a thread. It only took him a cup of tea to count all the copper coins.
Song An's eyes were filled with smiles, "Little sister, there are actually 4,120 coins here, plus this tael of silver, we have earned 5 taels this time."
Song Xile took out the one tael of silver given by the Zhao family's steward from the money box and said, "Second brother, this is the advance that the Zhao family's steward gave us. We still need to give him seven hundred and ninety coins."
"That's still a profit of four taels, not a small amount!"
In Song An's opinion, they couldn't earn that much money even if they worked hard at home for a year, but they could earn it in one day. How could he not be happy?
Song Xile calculated in his mind: "After deducting the cost of buying sheep, coal, and labor, the net profit is only one tael and five cents of silver."
When Song An heard this, he counted carefully with his fingers and said with satisfaction: "If we can earn so much every day, by the time of the Dragon Boat Festival, won't we be able to make a net profit of more than 40 taels of silver?"
Song Xile thought for a moment and said, "Maybe more than that. If the flow of people there increases in the future, I think we may need to prepare more ingredients."
When Song An thought about it, this was indeed possible, and his expression became even happier.
Seeing her second brother happy, Song Xile suggested, "Second brother, go buy a table and stool first. When you come back, keep a record of the money the Zhao family prepaid today so that you know the exact amount."
Song An pointed at himself, staring with a pair of blank eyes, and said innocently: "Let me keep accounts? But I can't!"
