"What's wrong?"
"He doesn't seem to be here to eat, but rather to gather information!" Qin Lian hit the nail on the head, "Any serious customer who observes all kinds of things when they come in and changes his face when asked, must have something on his mind!"
Su Liuye was stunned and immediately wanted to take a look in person.
But at this moment, Chu Yan appeared again out of nowhere.
"No need to check, that person is the foreman of the shop next door, his name is Changqing."
"From the shop next door? So what is he doing here?" Su Liuye frowned.
Chu Yan was a little helpless, "I told you it's the shop next door, so naturally I'm here to spy on the situation. Do you want me to drive him away?"
"Well," Su Liuye hesitated for a moment, then simply waved her hand, "Let him go! As long as he remembers to pay for what he ordered!"
Anyway, for her, she has a lot of those patterns and recipes in her mind.
From the moment she took it out, she was ready to be stolen.
But Su Liuye didn't care at all.
These people can steal one or two things, but they cannot continue to steal like this forever.
In other words, the stolen things would not last long at all, which was why she was not worried at all.
However, after Chang Qing left, Qin Lian rushed in again panting early the next morning, "A Liu, something really bad is going to happen this time!"
Su Liuye glanced at the sky outside, "Don't be busy with big things first, help me take stock first. Are these things today enough to last until tomorrow?"
"Try to finish things as early as possible today, I want to go home!"
Speaking of which, it has been less than half a month since the store opened.
During this time, their family of four, together with Qin Lianchun, Ruixia and others, almost always ate, drank and slept in the restaurant.
Now that the situation in the restaurant is gradually stabilizing, Su Liuye also wants to go back to get some more clothes for the two children and see what they can buy.
After all, no matter how they do business, a restaurant is just a restaurant, not their home.
However, Qin Lian looked anxious and didn't care to listen to what she said. She hurriedly walked out, "You can still take care of this! Come and take a look first. A new store has opened opposite our store. , many of the things made there are exactly the same as our dim sum!"
Su Liuye frowned instantly, "What else is there? How did you know about it?"
"I get angry when I talk about this," Qin Lian's face turned red with anger, "I was doing hygiene outside just now, and a passerby came out from the opposite side carrying a set of snacks. When I saw it, they were selling snacks. , from the outer packaging to the contents inside, everything is exactly the same as ours!”
"They even copied the pattern of our three characters, Cyclamen! At first glance, I can't tell the difference between theirs and ours!"
The more he talked about it, the angrier Qin Lian became.
At this time, Su Liuye also saw the store directly opposite Cyclamen through the door.
Su Liuye himself was stunned when he saw the other party's plaque.
When I took over the restaurant Xian Ke Lai, the sign on it was in classic official script. It was the only one in the middle of the block letters on the street, which was particularly eye-catching.
Therefore, Su Liuye did not deliberately change it, and simply kept the original brand.
But now, above the shop opposite, there is an official script exactly like theirs, Yingxian Pavilion!
If one or two things are similar, it can still be called a coincidence, but if everything is a coincidence, it is not a coincidence.
Su Liuye's expression suddenly became serious, as slow as she was, and she also noticed something was wrong at this time.
Seeing her stop, Qin Lian became anxious, "Why don't you leave? Don't you want to go see her?"
After thinking for a moment, Su Liuye turned to look at her, "Go to the kitchen and bring Xia Zhi out."
Qin Lian was a little confused, "What's wrong? Did she leak the recipe?"
"That's not true." Su Liuye shook her head. She still trusted the person Chu Yan gave her. "In this situation, someone who is reliable and understands the situation must go and take a look."
"Do you want Sister Xia to go?"
"Well, she's not originally from here, and she usually stays in the kitchen and doesn't come out much. If she goes, she should know what to buy, and she won't reveal her secrets."
Qin Lian immediately walked back in a hurry, "Then I'll call her now!"
A moment later, when Xia Zhichu came out, he had changed into an ordinary white robe.
To be extra safe, she also wore a veil that came from somewhere on her face.
At first glance, Su Liuye couldn't help but be stunned.
Usually Xia Zhi always lowered his head, but she didn't notice that when Xia Zhi changed his clothes and raised his head to walk, he had quite a bit of demeanor and temperament on him.
For those who don’t know, they might think that a young lady from a certain family is out.
Su Liuye looked at it, took off the hairpin on her head, and inserted it diagonally on Xia Zhi's head.
Then, she took two steps back, looked at it for a moment, and then nodded, "Okay, you go out from the back, go around outside and then go over!"
"This slave knows."
Xia Zhi responded and walked out upright.
Looking at her back, Qin Lian noticed something was wrong, "A Liu, where did your Chu Yan get this person for you? Why do I feel like she doesn't look like someone from our small rural place?"
"I'm not sure, but I've come here, so just use it."
After saying that, Su Liuye counted the accounts and waited.
In the past few days, the enthusiasm for opening has gradually decreased, and the store's income from recharges has also gradually decreased.
Because she was too busy during this period, she didn't have time to take a closer look at the accounts. She only had a quick glance and it was not a big deal, so she quit.
But today, looking at the first day's accounts, Su Liuye was truly shocked.
The account turnover on the first day of opening actually reached an astonishing five thousand taels!
Although more than half of it comes from recharging and pre-depositing, the remaining part of the consumption, after the cost of two to three hundred taels of silver on the first day, the profit is indeed as high as a thousand taels!
For a moment, Su Liuye was so shocked that she couldn't even close her mouth.
She knew that a lot of money had been transferred during this period, but she never expected that the amount could be so large!
While flipping through the pages, Su Liuye's counting hands began to shake.
But then, as she looked back, she gradually frowned.
Perhaps it was because all the customers at the beginning were pre-deposits. After the initial period of time, there were only expenses on the account and no income.
Looking at it, Su Liuye began to feel worried.
What she did in the early stage was basically to make money at a loss. Although the current situation was expected, she still felt a little worried about her money for some reason.
At this moment, Chu Yan walked out from behind her, "Why are you frowning? What problem did you encounter?"
Su Liuye glanced at him and pushed the account book over.
"I was thinking that it was fine in this mode for the first month, but if it continues to be this mode in the future, I'm afraid it would be difficult."
Seeing her worried look, Chu Yan smiled and took the account book, "Have you forgotten the Kabuki plan? I have found all the people in the past two days, let's start the next step!"
"You will know then that making money has never been a problem!"
