sow happiness

Chapter 28
Lou Mengxi was worried that she would make a mistake in the accounts, so she handed over the arduous task of calculating the accounts to Jun Luohan. About 15 minutes later, Jun Luohan put down the calculator.

"Sister, what's the result?" Lou Mengxi looked forward to it.

"There are good results and bad results, which one do you want to listen to." Jun Luohan was a little tricky.

"Oh, don't lose my appetite. Tell me quickly." Lou Mengxi said anxiously.

"Then tell me whether you want to hear the good news or the bad news."

"Then I want to hear the good news." Lou Mengxi thinks it's better to be happy first. "Uh, wait a minute. I think it's better to start with bitterness and then sweetness. Let's hear the bad news first."

"The bad news is we didn't make much money today."

"No way, the four tables of high-quality dishes are just a little bit of money? Are you kidding me?" Lou Mengxi was surprised.

"That's good news. Do you want to hear it?"

"Of course I want to hear it. I was really looking forward to hearing the good news from you. Hurry up and say it, don't be a joke here."

"The good news is that the money we invested in the early stage has almost returned. Now, except for the accident that the restaurant under renovation is paid by the godfather, the rest is our own money. The purchase of land, courtyard houses, and these pots and pans , Our 100 million flowers are pretty much gone, plus the aquatic products and farm tools we bought before."

"Really, if the business is really as good as you said, then how can you say we didn't make much money today." Lou Mengxi felt that Jun Luohan was really contradictory.

"Look at this ledger. The money we earned today has offset all our odds and ends. There are only a few big items that have not been earned back."

"Then why haven't we earned it back?"

"We are still short of money to buy land and build courtyard houses."

"Then we paid for the dining table and chairs, kitchen utensils, bowls, chopsticks, cups and saucers?" Lou Mengxi couldn't believe it.

"It's right and wrong. We haven't paid off the fish fry and shrimp fry we bought before."

"As long as we have another table tomorrow, we can settle the seafood bill."

"Yeah, so to speak. We can already start thinking about making money, and I think I can already see the money is coming to me."

"I can finally see the money coming back. I feel like I can start dreaming about being a millionaire."

"Okay, don't dream. There are still things waiting for us tomorrow. Let's go to bed early."

Jun Luohan divided the accounts in the store into two books, one is the temporary accounts of the courtyard house, and the other is the general account from the beginning to the present.

"Well, get some rest. My bed is still waiting for my date."

"Don't play tricks, go to sleep."

In the morning, when Lou Mengxi and Jun Luohan were still asleep, someone knocked on the door, and they were very persistent, as if they knew they were at home, and kept knocking on the door.

"Excuse me, is there something wrong?" Helpless Lou Mengxi went to open the door.

"I'm Lao Li from the east of the village. We have guests coming today, so I want to treat you to a good table."

"It turned out to be Uncle Li, okay, we will prepare it. I don't know who you are entertaining, Uncle." Lou Mengxi was naturally positive when there was business coming.

"It's my in-laws coming over for dinner."

"Oh, that's right. Is there anything I should pay attention to?"

"I'm just a countryman, and I don't have much experience. This time, my son just needs to be rich when he meets his future father-in-law." Lao Li pondered for a long time and didn't know what to say.

"Okay, no problem. I'll get it ready. When's it coming?"

"I'll be here around eleven o'clock and wait, you just have to get ready soon." Lao Li didn't mind the time waiting either.

"Okay. I will issue you a receipt, and you will come to pick up the food and pay the bill later."

"Row."

After talking about everything, Lou Mengxi went to check the output of her farm first, and brought out a lot of ingredients from it. It is impossible for the chef to see that there is nothing in the kitchen and then change a lot of ingredients at once. .While busy, Jun Luohan also got up from the bed and was a little surprised to see Lou Mengxi busy in the kitchen.

"Why did you suddenly start working hard?"

"The person who knocked on the door this morning was Uncle Li from the east of the village. He said that today there will be a banquet for important guests at home, so I need to be prepared. By the way, wait until you take out some ingredients in the space and put them in the basement , we can’t always take out a bunch of ingredients suddenly.”

"Okay, I get it. I'll put the ingredients in the basement later, and I'll go out and do some things. You can come here yourself."

"There's nothing to be busy with. I'll call the chef later and ask him to come over at noon. There's nothing else to do. Why are you going?"

"Dad called and said that the business license, health permit, and our health certificate have all been processed, so I'll go and get them."

"Why so fast, I thought I would have to wait a long time."

"It's all thanks to yesterday's banquet. If it weren't for the good cooking of our dishes yesterday, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly."

"Well, it makes sense. You go and come back quickly, lest I be too busy with anything here, and you are also in a hurry."

"I'm leaving now. I think it's just a waste of time going back and forth. Things won't be delayed for too long."

"Then be careful on the road."

"I'm not a three-year-old kid, don't worry."

After Lou Mengxi arranged the things, she searched in the cake shop in the space and found a suitable cake.At about ten o'clock, that Uncle Li came again.

"Uncle, is there anything else?"

"I'm not worried. I see that your vegetables are better than those we grow." It could be seen that Uncle Li was really nervous.

"Uncle, just relax." Lou Mengxi comforted.

"Hey, good. I'll let my son come and get it later."

"No problem, just come over around eleven o'clock." Lou Mengxi agreed with a smile.

After the chef arrived, the two of them started to get busy.During the period, the chef also talked about Lou Mengxi's knife skills and speed for a long time.When it was close to eleven o'clock, someone knocked on the door. It was a young man and a woman.

"Hello, do you need anything?"

"We are stored at the old Li's house in Dongtou. My father came over to order with you this morning."

"Oh, so it's Uncle Li's son. I'll go to the kitchen to take a look, please wait a moment." Lou Mengxi ran to the kitchen to take a look, and it was basically finished and packed, with one or two dishes missing. "It's still close, please come and settle the bill with me, and it will be almost the same after the checkout."

"Okay." The young man was very happy.

"This table is a total of 600 yuan, please settle the bill." Lou Mengxi looked at the bill and said.

"Here you are." The young man pulled out six banknotes from his wallet.

"Wait a minute." The woman stopped the banknote in the man's hand. "We're all from the same village. Doesn't the boss give you a discount?"

"Discount? How much discount do you want?"

"I don't want much, so I'll give you a [-]% discount."

As soon as the woman finished speaking, her fiancé, Lao Li's son, was a little embarrassed.

"[-]% off, it's really easy for you to touch your upper lip to your lower lip, but you're too embarrassed to say it but I'm too embarrassed to listen." Lou Mengxi smiled and didn't say anything bad.

"Oh, why am I embarrassed to say it. This small shop of yours is not a five-star hotel, and it's so expensive."

"Trust me, the food at my house must be the best you have ever eaten. You will never be disappointed."

"Why should I trust you, if it is."

"Okay, Mom and Dad are still waiting at home. Let's pay the money and leave quickly." The man couldn't stand anymore.

"Anyway, it's relatively close, lady boss, please answer quickly." The woman was very persistent.

"What I want to say is that the things in our store are absolutely worth the money, and this table of dishes will definitely not let you down."

"That means you're not going to make a discount, right?"

"Yes, don't worry, the things in the store are absolutely worth the money." Lou Mengxi said seriously.

"The price is so expensive, are you a black spot? I don't think you even have a business license." That woman must take advantage.

"Miss Boss, everything has been packed. Is the orderer here?" The kitchen master yelled in the kitchen.

"Clean up the kitchen first, the guests will have to wait for a while." After Lou Mengxi finished speaking, she looked at the two people who hadn't responded, with a half-smile.

A phone call interrupted the peace between the three.

"Hello."

"Mengmeng, I'm your Uncle Liu. Your father gave me the menu when he came home last night. I chose a few dishes. You can prepare them tonight."

"Uncle, do you mean to order a table tonight?"

"Yes, but I want a private room. I have an important date tonight, by the way, yesterday's rice wine and big crab must not be forgotten."

"I see, I will prepare well. I don't know how uncle will solve the problem of the menu."

"I've already sent the checked menu to your mailbox, go and have a look."

"Understood, I will prepare well."

After hanging up the phone, Lou Mengxi looked at the two people in front of her. "Have you two made up your mind?"

"Okay, here's the money. We have to go back quickly." The man handed the money to Lou Mengxi and said.

"Just go to the kitchen and carry it yourself."

Lou Mengxi saw that they were going to the kitchen, so she went to the room and took out the cake she had just chosen. When she came out, the couple had just come out of the kitchen. There is something.

"I heard that today is the day when your parents meet for dinner, so you are engaged. I have prepared a cake for you."

"Isn't it because you are worried that we will report you for operating without a license?"

"Then you can choose not to."

"How can we do that? If you want to give it to us, why don't you accept it?" The woman snatched the cake and left with her fiance.When he reached the door, the man turned his head back with apologetic eyes.

"It's really interesting people, I believe they should have a good life."
