I married a playboy at the beginning, and I changed my fate by eating delicious food
Chapter 73 Cake Booklet
I put the wooden box back into the dressing table, put away the extra two taels of silver on the table and put them in my purse, waiting to invite my mother and sister-in-law to go look at the cloth together one day.
She actually thought about hiding the silver, but there was nowhere to hide it in the house, so she didn't bother.
Shen Yanchen was lying on the bed, supporting himself with his hands, and throwing the silver high into the air.
Seeing Xu Si coming over, he coughed lightly and said, "Should I give you this money?"
He was outside the house just now and saw his father and elder brother handing in the money, and he also became a little aware of what was going on.
Xu Si arranged the pillows and pulled the quilt out from under him. "No need. Why are you giving me your money?"
Shen Yanchen was a little depressed, "We are husband and wife, what's wrong with leaving it to you?"
That’s right, he really wanted to hand it over, he was just pretending just now, but when he heard Xu Si didn’t want it, he became anxious.
Xu Si stood up straight and looked at him. She suddenly realized that this child had a very strong mental quality.
After being scolded by her, he took two days to adjust himself. She thought he had calmed down, but she didn't expect that not long after that, he started to make trouble again.
"Don't forget, we are just a couple in name only."
The relationship couldn't be purer.
Shen Yanchen began to doubt his life, "Could it be that I am so bad?"
Otherwise, why would Xu Si look down on me so much?
"It was pretty bad before, but now it's just so-so."
After all, this child has made progress. Although he is still unreliable, he has changed a lot and can help with things.
"Oh, go to sleep." Shen Yanchen felt that this comment was both good and bad. He stuffed the silver under the pillow, closed his eyes and stopped talking.
On the morning of the second day, Xu Si was working in the kitchen when Shen Anyi said someone came to her to discuss the cake.
She took off her apron, washed her hands, and hurried out.
Boss Zhou was wearing a dark blue gown and was accompanied by a servant. He was looking around the shop calmly.
Xu Si smiled, "Boss Zhou, you are here."
Boss Zhou curled his lips slightly to show his goodwill, and followed Xu Si to sit down between the screens.
Shen Anyi brought him a cup of tea and then walked away, leaving them some space.
Seeing that Boss Zhou had no intention of touching the tea, Xu Si didn't care and displayed a professional service attitude.
"When do you need this cake?"
"July 4th."
Xu Si calculated that it would be exactly 5 days later, which was also the beginning of autumn.
"So how big a cake would you like?"
"There are about 10 people. How big do you think it needs to be?"
"Then the 8-inch one should be enough."
Although we usually talk about inches when buying cakes, there is no such thing as inches here.
Inches and inches are different. 1 inch is equal to 2.54 centimeters, and one inch is equal to 3.33 centimeters.
"Okay, I'll follow the size you recommended. I remember you said last time that we could add fruit, right?"
Xu Si nodded, "That's right."
"Then add some grapes for me. The best quality ones. Price is not an issue." Boss Zhou said, touching the ring on his thumb.
As expected of a big customer, Xu Si suppressed his joy and nodded in agreement.
"As for patterns, what kind of patterns can you draw?"
Xu Si thought urgently and replied slowly, "Like the word 'Shou' is written on Mr. Wang's cake, we can also write the word 'Fu'. If you want other birthday wishes, we can also write them.
In addition to flowers made of cream, you can also make peaches, carp, etc. "
As for the overall shape, she made it all round and didn't say anything else. After all, the ancients believed that round was auspicious.
After finally finishing the introduction, Xu Sizhen felt that a cake album was needed so that people could make the selection easier.
Mr. Zhou listened carefully and said, "Then write me the words 'May you be blessed as vast as the East Sea, may you live as long as the South Mountain' and draw a few fish."
Xu Si took a pen and paper, thought for a moment, and then drew a model according to the requirements.
"Are you satisfied with it? You can modify it if you are not satisfied."
There are blessings written on the side of the cake in the painting, and patterns are outlined on the edge to make a pond. Two carps are painted right above, with grapes piled in the middle to serve as bubbles that the carps are spitting out.
In addition, the size is written in the blank space next to it.
"Good, the overall look is very artistic. I am looking forward to the finished product. Miss Xu has superb painting skills." Boss Zhou took the paper and looked at it carefully, and looked at Xu Si with some admiration.
"You are ridiculous."
"But Miss Xu's painting style is also very unique. I wonder which school it belongs to."
"Hmm, a sketch?"
Xu Si didn't know what this was. Anyway, it was not Chinese painting. She couldn't reach that level. She also taught herself this.
Boss Zhou didn't ask further, and casually asked, "How much does this cake cost?"
"7 taels."
"So do we have to pay the money now?" Boss Zhou gestured to the waiter to give the money.
"You have to pay half of it as a deposit first. Otherwise, if you don't want it at that time, we will suffer a huge loss, right?" Xu Si said with a smile.
Everyone is scheming in the business world, but Xu Si's straightforward statement not only does not arouse disgust, but makes him appear very honest.
Of course, her round face is also a plus, making her look more simple, so Boss Zhou easily accepted her statement.
Xu Si added, "We can provide door-to-door service, but you need to provide your address. Of course, you can also send someone to pick it up yourself."
"That's not necessary. I'll send someone to get it."
Xu Si showed an understanding expression. Rich people pay great attention to privacy.
"Then when will you send someone to pick it up?"
"Come and get it at the beginning of the evening."
That was around 5 o'clock in the afternoon.
"Okay," Xu Si said as he wrote down the pick-up time and the person who ordered it on the drawn paper.
Boss Zhou was even more satisfied with her rigorous attitude.
No one knows that he has obsessive-compulsive disorder and perfectionism, and likes others to do things perfectly.
After seeing Boss Zhou off, everyone gathered together eagerly to find out what happened.
It was fine at first, but when they heard that it was worth 8 taels, they couldn't hold it anymore.
"Oh my god, if we can make it big and strong, we'll get rich quickly."
Xu Si had passed the stage of ecstasy and was somewhat calm. "Yes, someone said yesterday that they wanted to order it, but I don't know when it will come. I have to draw some sketches and let them choose from them when the time comes."
"Okay, just get busy."
Although everyone is doing different things, their goals are the same and everyone has their own responsibilities.
Xu Si spent a whole day and finally finished making the booklet.
The first part is an introduction to cake, including the meaning of eating cake, the ritual before eating cake, a cake size comparison table, and raw materials, to prevent people from being allergic to the ingredients because they are not clear about them.
The second part is low-sugar and low-fat cakes, specially provided for those who are afraid of getting fat.
The third part is the children's cake area, which is divided into boys' and girls'.
The fourth part is the elderly cake area, which focuses on a festive and auspicious theme.
The fifth part is the women’s cake area, which focuses on looking good.
The sixth part is the men's cake area, which is more low-key in style.
She drew at least 7 styles of almost every type of cake, and then marked the specific price for each size of each type in each category.
She was so tired that it almost made her bald.
When she showed the album she had worked so hard on to others, everyone was surprised.
“There are so many variations.”
Xu Si was somewhat proud, "By the way, if there is time, I need someone to help me copy it."
Everyone understood, after all, no one could recognize the words she wrote.
"This one is the best looking," Su Jinyue pointed at one and praised.
Xu Si leaned over and saw a rose cake. It was currently only drawn in black and white. If it was completed, it would be pink and even more beautiful.
"Then I'll make this for you on your birthday." Xu Si promised.
"Really?" Su Jinyue was very happy.
"Of course, I'll spoil you." Xu Si raised her eyebrows. There was nothing wrong with being with her good sister.
Su Jinyue felt happy and hugged her arms, imitating Xu Si's previous actions.
Shen Jingchuan, who was standing by, felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
After everyone had finished flipping through the booklet, Xu Si carefully put it away and said, "Then the cake-making business will start from today.
From now on, every time we officially start working, we will have a day off the next day, which can be considered a holiday."
Her proposal was passed unanimously.
