The beauty of the lady

Chapter 35 Cooperation
"There is one, but girl, we don't need it. There are earth dragons in that shop, which are much better than burning charcoal and warmer." Li Gui said with a smile.

"That's it, that's good. My mother is not in good health, and I don't think it's good to burn charcoal." She lowered her head and muttered.

"There are almost all small shops like this, unless it is the mansions of the Hou's Mansion in the capital, which have been built for many years, or even hundreds of years, there are no such things. Don't worry, girl."

"Thank you, Brother Li." Zhou Mei smiled and nodded.

Later, I came to Qian Street, and now people started to set up stalls. This place is no different from the town. There is a market every five days, and Fucheng has it every day.

She walked on both sides and strolled slowly, and saw that there were all kinds of food for chewing, but there were very few green vegetables.

Thinking of Li Xun saying that their restaurant has vegetables all year round, which must be grown in greenhouses, I have to say that the current Great Yan Dynasty is really capable of producing a large number of people.

Thinking of this, she really wanted to make another trip.

Walking up to a stall, there are wild mushrooms in front of them, which look very fresh.

"Auntie, did you grow these mushrooms yourself? Are there any other mushrooms at home besides these?"

Hearing someone inquire, the woman said with a smile: "They are collected from the mountains. Although there are not many of them, if you have the heart, they can be collected all year round. Miss, do you want to buy?"

"Well, Auntie will stop setting up a stall in the future. Every time I have this kind of mushroom, I will send it to our shop. How about it?"

"How much does the girl want?" Hearing such a good thing, there is no reason why the woman would not want it.

"How much can Auntie pick every day?"

"Our family also has land, but if the girl wants it, we can give it away every two days. Each time it can weigh one or twenty catties. There is a forest next to our village. It is very big, and there are many children in the family. If there is nothing to do, we will always go there. If you go around in the mountains, if you pick too much, you will take it out and exchange it for a few copper coins."

Zhou Mei nodded and said with a smile: "It's so good, then the aunt will send ten catties to our shop every two days, and I will give you five copper coins per catty, do you think it is okay?"

"Okay, that relationship is good, how can it be bad." When the woman heard this, she nodded in haste and agreed. In this way, she can earn nearly a car of silver every month. Sell ​​it for three copper coins.

"Then the aunt will pack up, follow us first, and go over to identify the door."

"Hey, I got it, I got it." The woman packed up the mushrooms in front of her, and followed Zhou Mei with two baskets on her shoulders.

After that, Zhou Mei ordered eggs, meat from the butcher's shop, and fish sellers, and then she took the four of them to the shop.

When they arrived at the shop, Zhou Mei asked people to put the things in the small kitchen, then gave them today's money, told them the time to go to the house, and sent them back.

After that, Zhou Mei sent the two people behind her back and asked them to bring a message to Li Xun, saying that she was going to talk to him at noon, and then she started to work in the kitchen.

Looking at the existing items in the kitchen, she was going to make a dumpling with mushrooms and meat first, and send it over for Li Xun to taste, and then she started to get busy.

Li Gui went back and told Li Xun what Zhou Mei had said, then turned around and went to work in the shop.

Li Xun thought about what his son said, and then thought about Zhou Mei's cleverness. He seemed to have the answer in his heart, but he was not in a hurry. He occasionally looked at the account book in the study, or went to the front to see the guests and say a few words.

About half an hour later, Zhou Mei came to the door with a food box in her hand.

"Uncle Li, I'm here to negotiate a deal with you."

"I know you are clever, tell me, do you want to beat me about the winter vegetables?" Li Xun laughed.

"Uncle Li is really good, that's exactly what happened." After finishing speaking, he put the food box in front of her, took out the cooked dumpling ear from it, and put it in front of him, "This is my business, called dumpling ear, The outer layer, the stuffing of the bread inside, of course, this is what we are going to open for business, not to sell to Uncle Li, if it is good, Uncle Li can sell it in the restaurant, I prepare two copper coins for each, this There are [-] on a plate, that is, [-] copper coins for a dumpling ear, and of course there are other fillings, the price is different."

While talking, he put the chopsticks and a bowl of mashed garlic in front of him, "Try Uncle Li, you won't be disappointed."

Li Xun glanced at Zhou Mei with a smile on his face, picked up a dumpling ear, dipped some garlic paste in it, and slowly chewed, and couldn't help sighing again in his heart, this little girl gave him one accident after another, which made him want to stop.

I think that Li Xun sold himself as a slave when he was a child, and after working hard, he finally got rid of his slave status. He was arranged by his master to work as a restaurant manager in Yuzhou Prefecture. He has seen too many worlds and people. , and he has hardly suffered a disadvantage, and there is a purpose in helping others, but now facing Zhou Mei, a half-old girl, an old guy in his 40s, he can't help but want to get along with her for a long time, Not because of anything else, but because of this mentality, he also wants to help a bunch.

At least these two days, the business in the shop has become more prosperous, especially the boiled fish, which is in short supply, and the sales of crystal jelly are also very good. The most important thing is that the cost is so low that it can be ignored. There were not enough chefs in the shop, and he was thinking of writing a book with his master and sending two more, but this idea finally made him suppress it.

"Very good." He said this very sincerely.

"If that's the case, we'll sell it later, and Uncle Li will sell it here. We'll settle the settlement every month. Uncle Li can get [-]% of the bonus. Of course, it can't be more. We're just icing on the cake."

"Isn't it all the icing on the cake?" Li Xun said with a half-smile.

"I can't do that kind of disadvantageous thing. My kind of dumplings are sold here by Uncle Li, and it can also improve the atmosphere of the restaurant. It's not that you have no benefits at all, and it hasn't started yet. Maybe a 30% bonus There are two and thirty taels, after all, Uncle Li is a fairy house here."

Li Xun nodded, agreeing, "Could it be that this kind of dumpling ear is also the only one of Dayan Dynasty?"

"Of course, but if Uncle Li is good enough, I can add one more copper plate, and I won't ask for more. The original price will still give Uncle Li a [-]% bonus. How about it, is it a win-win?"

After listening to Zhou Mei's words, Li Xun didn't recover for a long time.

He looked at her quietly, and after a while he said: "You girl is not like your father."

"I was also forced out. My father and mother are honest, and I have a younger brother who is waiting to be fed. If I am more honest, there will be no bones left in our family that have been swallowed by others." Zhou Mei sneered, Then he closed the food box and said to Li Xun: "Then wait for the shop to open. Don't worry, Uncle Li. If you add a copper plate, it will be no pain to those uncles in Fucheng. My shop will accept some small families. .”
