Natural disasters at the beginning, widows take space to raise cubs and get rich

Chapter 224 We Have None of These

The person who asked the question was a man with a lot of money, subconsciously thought that the one with the menu would be better and more attractive, so he followed Xia Yu's words and stretched out his hand: "The menu? Can you show me?"

Originally, Xia Yu's hand was empty, but as soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yu stretched out a hand to grab it behind him, and a long piece of wood was held in his hand. There is a lot of rice paper, and the rice paper is tightly fixed with unknown things.Then he touched the base of the ear with his empty hand, and there was a wooden stick pinned to Xia Yu's ear.

The man stared blankly, a little dazed by the scene in front of him.

"Guest officer, this is our menu. What do you want to eat? If it's not convenient for you to read, I'll give you the name of the dish directly!" The so-called inconvenience is actually to take care of some illiterate customers.

Although this is the prosperous Huating County, don't forget that this is also an ancient time that was backward and without universal education.The vast majority of people are illiterate, and most of them, even those with little money, are also illiterate.

However, what Xia Yu didn't know was that this seemingly ordinary guest was actually literate.But he felt that since entering this store, what he saw and heard was something he had never seen in other stores.

So, without blinking his eyes, he lied and said, "It's not very convenient, please give me the name of the dish."

Xia Yu didn't doubt it, she opened her mouth and said, "Steamed bear's paw and steamed deer antler. We don't have any of these!"

Guest: "." You said so many feelings, you mean nothing!It made him think that he had entered some kind of high-end restaurant hidden in the city!At the same time, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.It's a good thing he didn't, although he had a lot of money in his pocket, but that was just for comparison.

Compared with ordinary people who don't have enough to eat, he can be regarded as a small landlord.But compared to the rich man in silk and satin, he is just an inconspicuous little shrimp.

If you really give him a whole table of steamed bear paws or something, you'll just take off your clothes and sell them today, I'm afraid he won't be able to pay off his debts!
"Hey, what do you have here?"

In fact, after Xia Yu reported the list of non-existent dish names, she was extremely disturbed.If you ask him, such behavior is undoubtedly unworthy, but Xia Huai said that their shop should be different from the others, and they should open some kind of temperature restaurant.Let the guests who come to Xiaji Restaurant come happily and leave with satisfaction.

It's not that Xia Yu doesn't believe in Xia Huai, the main reason is that he has never heard of such a thing!These unpredictable guests, can they eat this set? !
Obviously, they really do eat this set.

When Xia Yu was receiving guests, the rest of the people who entered the restaurant lobby were also assigned by the old Xia's family to receive them.

Whether it's the menu or the name of the dish, whether it's explaining the store furnishings or introducing the opening discount.These things that seemed to have never existed in this world were magically easily accepted by these natives.

Not only accepted, but they also seemed very excited.Sitting at the table can't wait to order all the dishes!
The old Xia's family was actually very happy about this situation, but Xia Huai said again that the order should be in moderation, and the guests must be reminded in time not to order too much.Especially the number of people ordering food is much higher than the number of people eating.

Xia Huai was not only afraid of the food being wasted, but also worried that after these wealthy masters ate and drank enough, there would be a lot of food left on the table. If this was seen by the guests who just came in, what would they think?
Someone must be guessing in their hearts, is the food here not delicious?Otherwise, this is both oil and meat, so why don't people finish it?Could it be that their money came from the wind?

It is true that the ancients were more frugal than modern people.

But don't forget that the nature of saving face has existed no matter in ancient or modern times.In order to prevent this matter from escalating to the point where it would affect the reputation of the restaurant, Xia Huai could only remind everyone in advance to pay attention.

Everyone has curiosity, the more you don't let me have more, I feel strange in my heart, and I will become rebellious and want more.

But the rules are right in front of you, you can only order after eating the dishes.This not only eliminates the danger of damaging the reputation of the restaurant, but also increases the desire of these customers to order again after eating.

Otherwise, according to the practice of many people.But when you go to restaurants, you can eat as much as you order, even if you are not full, that's it.

After settling down the customers who ordered cooking, a large number of people who didn't have so much spare money soon flooded into the store.

Although these people don't have much money, they win by numbers.The so-called small profits but high sales, as long as the quantity increases, you are not afraid of not making money!
"Everyone, this is our self-collection area, and this is where we pay. Pay first, then choose dishes. For all dishes, the price for every five dishes you choose is 10 Wen, and so on. If you want to continue to take, then For 10 Wen dishes, pay 5 Wen for the second time, and 1 Wen for the third time, and so on. If you understand, please come to my left hand side to pay.”

These people are illiterate, and their brains are not that smart, so they cannot avoid explaining it several times.But Xia Huai said that customers are soldiers sent by God, and they must be taken care of!They are all people who want to make money for them, what's wrong with explaining it twice? !

After they absorb and digest, they will be guided to line up on one side, each holding a wooden disc, waiting in line for cooking.Those who have paid will receive a wooden sign, which is divided into colors and marked with specific words for distinction.

For example, a person who buys five dishes holds a square wooden sign with 'five' on it and 'one' on the bottom.The ten dishes are round wooden signs, with 'ten' and 'one' written respectively.

If it is renewed for the second time, it must be replaced with a brand such as 'five', 'two' or 'ten', 'two'.

Just in case someone fishes in troubled waters, someone in the store must keep an eye on every customer carefully.Although this will indeed be troublesome, but there is no monitoring in ancient times, so it can only be done temporarily.

The people who joined the fun outside couldn't help wondering when they saw that those who went in hadn't come out for a long time.In the past, when other new stores opened, people would join in the fun, but most of them would not stay for a meal, and they were just happy!

what is it today?
Seeing this, Shi Shi struck while the iron was hot, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Fathers and folks, have you seen it too? Our Xia Ji restaurant is definitely worth the money, but anyone who comes to our Xia Ji restaurant, I will not talk big, at least There are one or two dishes that you can't eat outside!"

"Besides, our Xiaji restaurant is for the common people. As long as you have a few copper coins in your pocket, you can afford and eat enough!"

"Why are you still hesitating? Just go in! I, Shi Shi, promise that you will never be disappointed if you come to our restaurant for dinner! And it's cheap to eat today, don't take advantage of it!"

These words are true and have reached everyone's hearts. These days, especially when the natural disasters have just passed, it is the time when there is no need to take advantage of it, you are a bastard if you don't take advantage of it!
