Yesterday's limerick to attract customers, Xuanhe and Xueyan recited it from the time they left the stall to the time they closed the stall, almost without stopping.
Today we built on the foundation of yesterday, and soon there were about ten people lining up, so the two little ones didn’t have to work as hard as yesterday, and it was much easier than yesterday.
Su Qingluan was still responsible for preparing shredded vegetables and seasoning them, while Yang was responsible for mixing vegetables and rolls, and Su Guangfu collected the bills. The three of them cooperated with each other and were very busy.
The flow of customers today was obviously more than that of the stalls that had just tried it yesterday. Yang gradually felt that his arms were getting sore from the endless roll making.
Fortunately, she is a farm woman who works all year round, so it's not a problem. However, considering that her daughter has been pampered and raised in a wealthy family for more than ten years, even if she doesn't dislike the poor life in her heart, she may not be able to bear it physically.
So Yang took advantage of a gap when there were no guests and came to Su Qingluan and asked, "Are you tired, my dear? Can you chop the vegetables?"
Su Qingluan's body is actually relatively delicate, and now her arms are obviously sore. This makes Su Qingluan secretly decide to put physical training on the agenda - as a chef, how can he be delicate and fragile? I'm afraid I won't be able to lift a large spoon in the future.
But now she plans to bite the bullet and endure it.
It's not that she has to ask for trouble, but she has her own considerations.
"Auntie, you are already familiar with making burritos, and I have also adapted to the work of preparing dishes. Let's switch while the customer flow is constant, and the speed will slow down." When the speed slowed down, some customers who were impatient to wait started to wait. Will leave.
While he was talking, two more diners came to eat "Juan Baicai", so Yang had to go and greet the guests.
In fact, there is another unexplainable reason why Su Qingluan specifically took over the task of preparing food.
As we all know, knife skills are an essential skill for a chef, and there is only one way to improve your proficiency in this skill - practice more.
Nothing but familiarity.
Maybe the upper limit of knife skill is different for each person, but no matter what, hard work cannot be avoided.
As a person with a certain degree of obsessive-compulsive disorder about food, Su Qingluan really couldn't bear the thought of having to cut the ingredients horribly in order to avoid being suspected even though he was capable.
Therefore, if you want to be able to use your knife skills, you must have a legitimate reason to quickly improve your skills, and now this food stall is a good opportunity.
Therefore, when Mrs. Yang sighed that Su Qingluan's shredded vegetables were fine and even and the vegetables were served quickly, Su Qingluan could say without blushing: "Mom, look at the vegetables I cut. , which is enough to feed the whole family for several months on weekdays. If you add up a little, you will naturally make rapid progress."
"You're making rapid progress," Yang said with a smile, tapping Su Qingluan's cheek and teasing, "I'm not afraid that others will listen and laugh at you for being such a shameless girl."
However, I really didn’t doubt anything anymore.
Although the price of burritos increased a bit on the second day, it was not much higher than the average price of other burritos on the market. In addition, the taste was indeed very good, so there were many more customers than on the first day.
Including some of the repeat customers on the first day, the net profit on this day was just over 600 yuan, which was doubled compared to the first day.
This made the whole Su family burst into laughter. Even today, Yang was so cruel that she bought the braised pork head meat and a bottle of apricot flower wine that are usually only served during the Chinese New Year. She also bought sherbet for the children as a snack for everyone.
During dinner, both Yang and Su Guangfu had a few drinks. Because they had to go to the town early tomorrow morning, even though they were happy, they did not dare to drink too much.
The two little ones got up early for two days in a row, and they were quite tired. Even the fragrant braised pork head meat and the sweet and sour sherbet didn't make them stay for a while, so they went to rest after eating.
Su Qingluan looked at his brother and sister who were almost falling asleep, turned around and came out to suggest to Su Guangfu and his wife: "Why don't you take them with you tomorrow? I'll make them tired."
Yang thought for a moment and nodded: "I'll go next door later and ask the Li family's wife if she has time, and ask her to take a look at the two little ones."
The Li family's daughter-in-law is a smooth and thin woman. When Yang asked, she agreed with her breasts and pushed the money handed to her: "It seems that the neighbor next door wants to do such a hard work for nothing."
Mr. Yang repeatedly asked for money, but the Li family's daughter-in-law couldn't refuse. She thought for a while and said:
"If you want to thank me, tell your eldest girl not to go to town one day, but when she has free time, she can make another beggar's chicken from the last time she sent it to me! That's enough. "
Yang responded with a smile.
In the blink of an eye, the Su family has been running a stall in the town for about half a month.
Although the customer flow has gradually stabilized in the past few days, it shows that "Juan Baicai" has gradually gained a stable customer source, and it can be regarded as having its own place among these small vendors.
However, some people are happy and some are sad, and the Su family is making money, which shows that the business of similar burrito stalls will be affected to a greater or lesser extent.
There are more than one or two burrito stalls in this town, and most of them are honest businessmen.
Some people came to try "Juan Baicai" and found that it tasted better, so they also thought about improving their own taste;
Some try to open stalls farther away from the Su family's "Juan Baicai" location to gain local advantages and seize customers by dividing them;
Some try to add some non-vegetarian food to the burritos, but the price will also increase, but the sales volume will decrease.
Su Qingluan also knew that he had taken away other people's business, but when setting up a stall, the "leftover" is king. If you want to have business, you have to compare taste, service, sales methods, etc...
As long as it is legitimate competition, she is not afraid - because she has absolute confidence in her cooking skills.
However, on this day, as soon as she and her parents set up the stall, they saw Skinny Monkey running over in a panic and saying, "Something's wrong with the Su family girl! Your family is being targeted by Dong Mao, the man who will kill you with a thousand swords!"
Dong Mao is the shopkeeper of Dongji Burrito, the largest burrito stall in this town. Other burrito stalls have to avoid the busiest street in the town where he is located.
It's not for any other reason. It's simply that if someone dares to "steal business" from Dong Mao on the same street, it won't be long before "Dong Ji Burrito" will launch similar products at extremely low prices.
Over time, the original stall will be so crowded that it can no longer sell anything and be forced to close down.
However, according to the laws of this dynasty, one's own stalls are completely free to set prices, as long as someone buys them.
What's more, there is no "patent protection" in this era. Even if you are copied, you can only be dumb and eat Coptis chinensis, and you can't tell the pain.
Therefore, stall owners who make food, especially burritos, are very resentful towards Dong Mao.
Originally, the Su family's stall was on the street and did not attract Dong Mao's attention.
Unexpectedly, after a while, the business of "Juan Bai Cai" became more and more prosperous, and the number of customers of "Dong Ji Burrito" decreased a lot.
Dong Mao has always been a domineering character who makes others suffer. How could he be willing to watch the guests go elsewhere?
So he planned to repeat his old tricks and squeeze out the Su family's "hundreds of fortunes".
