I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life

A month passed quickly, and the responses to the cold rabbit and braised offal were very good, so when Xu Congyi and Tang Wenhao met, they decided to open the store. The store was the Tang family's business, and Tang Wenhao took Xu Congyi to look at every shop, and finally chose a small shop that was closest to Tang's Pastries. Because they only served take-out and no dine-in, the store did not need to be too big.

Initially, Xu Congyi thought that he could open a noodle shop together with Shen's, selling noodles at noon and cold dishes such as rabbit and braised meat in the afternoon. But then he thought that noon was also a meal time and could not be missed, so it would be more appropriate to open a separate shop.

The original plan was for Xu Congyi to deliver the finished product, but Xu Congyi felt that the family was busy now because they had not started farming yet. Once the busy farming season came, they would definitely not be able to take care of it. So she discussed it with Tang Wenhao. She was responsible for the formula and the finished product marinade package and the rabbits used for cold rabbit. Tang Wenhao was responsible for making and purchasing pig offal. After deducting the cost, the profit was divided into 30% and 70%. In this way, Xu Congyi could make money without being too tired. Tang Wenhao had no objection. The shop was his own, and the shop assistants were also his own. He also felt that Xu Congyi was at a disadvantage in the 30% and 70% split, because Xu Congyi said that whether it was cold rabbit or marinated offal, there was no technical content and it was mainly in the formula and seasoning. So Tang Wenhao directly let Tang Xiaoyi, Tang Xiaoer, and Tang Xiaosan take charge of the work in the store. The brothers were grateful to Tang Wenhao for saving their lives. After getting along for so long, in Tang Wenhao's heart, they were absolutely trustworthy people and there was no need to worry about leaks.

The two thought about the name for a long time. Tang Wenhao insisted on calling it Xu Tangji, but Xu Congyi refused. She was really afraid of unnecessary trouble. As long as she could get the money, she didn't care about the name. So under Xu Congyi's repeated requests, they still called it Tang Ji. In order to make it easier to remember, they simply called it "Tang Ji Fragrant Meat Shop", which means that the meat smells good and tastes good.

After the store opened, Xu Congyi bought ready-made marinade packets directly from the space. Anyway, they were broken into pieces and it was hard to tell what was what. She also contributed several recipes and made smoked meat, which were also very popular.

Tang Wenhao became addicted to roujiamo. There are many kinds of braised meat in the Xiangrou restaurant. Xu Congyi taught him to chop the pork head and put it in a steamed bun with eggs and green onions. Roujiamo is the combination of meat and steamed bun. Tang Wenhao ate it for several days in a row and still never got tired of it.

At the beginning, the cold rabbit, braised meat, smoked meat, etc. supplied by Xiangrou Shop were all in fixed quantities every day. They were sold out early, and they were gone before the afternoon. Tang Xiaoyi asked Tang Wenhao if he needed to make more every day, but Tang Wenhao thought for a moment and refused. It is normal for everyone to feel fresh when the store just opened, so they buy more. When it comes to the later stage, there will be fewer people. At this time, quality is very important. Good quality can attract repeat customers. The meat in Xiangrou Shop is made and sold every day. It takes time to make and stew. It is better to make less to ensure the quality. Moreover, as a businessman, there are also business strategies. If the things sold every day cannot be sold out, everyone who comes to buy will think that it is just so-so, but if they miss the time and buy it out, everyone will think that this must be very good, so they will come and wait early. Tang Wenhao discussed this issue with Xu Congyi before, and Tang Wenhao also expressed his ideas. Xu Congyi certainly did not object. There is nothing wrong with doing what you can. She thinks it is similar to modern hunger marketing.

Sure enough, after the excitement of the opening passed, the business of Tang Ji Xiang Meat Shop gradually stabilized. The meat supplied every day would basically be sold out before three o'clock in the afternoon, so everyone knew that if they wanted to eat it occasionally but came late, they could just come early the next day to buy it.

The turnover of the fragrant meat shop is still considerable. Cold rabbit is very popular. Xu Congyi still charges 40 wen for raw rabbit meat. She makes a limited supply of ten rabbits every day, which is 400 wen. The marinade packets are bought by Xu Congyi from the space. She calculates them based on the prices bought from the pharmacy and seasoning store, which is 15 wen per day. As for pig offal and pork, Tang Wenhao directly contacts a large pork slaughterhouse, and the price is cheaper than buying them from the market. Five sets of pig offal are delivered every day. Since Tang Ji started selling pig offal, everyone has been buying them. Everyone knew that pig offal could be cooked so deliciously, so more people came to buy it, and the price was changed from free to ten cents a pair, which was fifty cents. In addition, braised pig heads, braised pork and smoked pork were made in turn every day, which cost about seven hundred cents a day. Adding the miscellaneous salt, sugar, soy sauce, etc., the daily cost was about one tael and two cents, but the daily turnover was three taels of silver, so the income was still very substantial. Xu Congyi calculated that if the split was 30:70, she could get about fifty taels a month. She felt like she was dreaming.

In order to do good business, the Xu family further expanded the scale of rabbit breeding. On one hand, the little rabbits grew up and reproduced, and on the other hand, Xu Congyi kept buying mother rabbits with cubs. The empty rabbit house was now full. Fortunately, the rabbit house was built larger. However, it was still difficult for the Xu family to supply ten rabbits a day. Most of the rabbits sold in the market were wild rabbits with shriveled meat. So Xu Congyi killed five rabbits at home every day and bought five white-striped rabbits from the space. She thought that if the Houxiang Meat Shop had good business in the spring and could open a branch, she could find a few villagers to cooperate in breeding together. There is strength in numbers.
