On July 28th, the sun was shining brightly and the cake shop was officially opened.
The old lady has been listening to Mrs. Du talking about the excitement of the cake shop, and today she ignored everyone's dissuasion and came here. Mrs. Dong of the Chen family came. Of course, Mrs. Du also invited a few friends with her, because it was not convenient to entertain small guests in this place. Mrs. Du didn't let them stay long. In less than an hour, she asked the waiter to prepare things and send them back. They were very happy to see the cakes carried by the maid next to them.
The shop is clean and tidy, and all the varieties are displayed in the front like the delicacies. Customers do not enter the room, but only order at the window. This was an ordinary shop in the previous life, but it is unique here.
The sweet smell of the cake can be smelled from a hundred meters away.
There were people queuing up early in the morning. I couldn't help my little master wanting to eat. The master had told him to come early the night before.
Because there were many people queuing up, those who saw it for the first time today were curious and joined the queue after smelling the really fresh and sweet smell. No wonder the shops in the past life would pay people to queue up when they opened.
After a while, a long snake-like queue formed in front of the store. Although autumn has arrived, the sun at noon is still very poisonous. People who love food don't care today. However, some people came here for today's discount. All cakes and breads are 30% off for the first three days of opening. In addition to 30% off for certain birthday cakes, snacks are also included.
Suddenly there are more people celebrating birthdays.
The guys introduced cakes, breads and birthday cakes to everyone with a warm and generous smile. Of course, you can also try them on small plates.
Although the waiter repeatedly said that it doesn’t matter if you try it or not, but as long as you try it, there is no one who won’t buy it. If your family is in a good situation, buy more, and if your family is in poor condition, buy less. Anyway, it’s okay to eat such delicious food occasionally. Can't be poor.
To be honest, the prices of cakes in the shop are not low, but the advantage is that there are so many rich people in Kyoto.
Therefore, the team has not been decreasing, which made everyone around them jealous. But when they found out that it was the Lord Protector's shop, they could only hold back their envy and jealousy in their hearts.
Fortunately, Ning Jiayin had the foresight and prepared enough materials, otherwise it would have been sold out in the morning.
Mrs. Du's smiling eyes narrowed to a slit, and her mouth had not been closed since morning. Ning Jiayin did not come to the scene today, but just watched from a distance. At this time, she smiled from the bottom of her heart. Her good taste was borrowed today. The cake shop's light business is also particularly good.
Fortunately, we persisted until sunset. The shop ran out of materials and no one could work anymore.
From a distance, Chen Hao was hunched forward with one leg and chewing spicy sticks in his mouth: "Why do you think this girl knows everything?" He didn't want to hear the answer from the people around him, so he continued to talk to himself. Quote: "I feel more and more that she is a mystery. I want to stay by her side and solve the mystery about her."
Seeing that King Jin ignored him, he said to himself: "I'm just too young."
King Jin rolled his eyes at him, and he asked King Jin rudely: "Do you think my father will agree if I want to marry her?"
King Jin's heart trembled, and he felt irritable for no reason. He said coldly: "I don't know, you have to ask your father." After saying that, he turned around and left.
As Chen Hao spoke, he stood on tiptoes and looked forward, but when he turned his head, he saw that Jin Wangren had already walked far away. He hurriedly ran over: "Hey, why are you leaving?"
"Why don't you leave? It's almost closing time." King Jin didn't understand the reason for his discomfort.
At dusk, Mrs. Du in the Duke's Mansion took stock of today's business, and found that the net profit was more than two hundred taels, which was almost the same as Ning Yatou's estimate. She grinned from ear to ear.
She has been involved in this business from beginning to end, and she feels very fulfilled. Before it opened, Ning Yatou told her that it would reach its peak after opening, and she could earn more than 200 taels a day. She still didn't believe it, but now she is convinced.
The second son came back from the military camp and saw his mother so happy: "Mom, did you find money?"
Mrs. Du smiled even harder, and the old lady beside her was also happy: "Yes, your mother has indeed found money, and she will pick it up every day in the future."
"What's going on, mom, please tell me." The sixteen-year-old boy was just curious.
Mrs. Du pointed to the cakes and bread on the table: "That's what they earned."
"Them?" Guo Bing jumped up, took a piece and took a bite. It was indeed soft, glutinous and sweet. He had often seen these things on the table when he went home recently. He always thought they were eaten by old people and children. He, a man, ate them. What are you doing? I didn’t expect it to be so delicious.
"It's really delicious. Who made this?" Guo Bing asked while eating.
"He is your mother's God of Wealth." The old lady pleased her daughter-in-law.
Since her second son had never met Ning Jiayin, Mrs. Du thought for a moment and said, "The girl who saved your niece half a year ago is also the girl who makes spicy strips."
"It's her!" Guo Bing knew who it was as soon as he heard it. Recently, the boys in the military camp all like to eat spicy strips, and even if they buy steamed buns, they won't change them even if they say they are gods.
The spicy strips are so delicious, and of course the people who make them are even more amazing. The kids all want to meet the people who make the spicy strips.
"Have you seen her?" the old lady asked her grandson.
"No, I haven't seen her but I am familiar with her." Seeing that his grandmother and mother didn't understand, he didn't know how to explain it. It was like he had never seen that girl, but he knew it as soon as his grandmother mentioned it.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Mom will ask the kitchen to cook some for me tomorrow and I will take it to the military camp. Otherwise, my mother will get rich from this and I don't even know about it. It would be embarrassing if I found out from others."
"Okay, I'll just do it for you. Why do you talk so much?" Mrs. Du naturally responded to her youngest son's requests.
Seeing his son take another piece in his hand and walk away, the old lady smiled fondly: "You bastard!"
She turned around and told her daughter-in-law: "You must prepare the account books well. Ning Yatou's share must not make any mistakes when the time comes. I would rather give more than less."
"Mom, don't worry, I won't let Ning Yatou suffer."
Mrs. Du smiled and assured the old lady that the girl was her God of Wealth.
The God of Wealth also heard the good news after he returned home. The housekeeper rented a house nearby. Ning Jiayin went to take a look and was very satisfied. It was a four-entry courtyard with many rooms. The courtyard was very large, and there was a large open space on the east side of the courtyard. She visually estimated that it was about two or three acres in size. According to the housekeeper, the owner of the family was originally very wealthy. Money, just because he was rich, he married many concubines. Because the concubines were jealous, all the legitimate sons and concubines in the family were gone. When the master got angry, he sold all the concubines and only took his first wife back to his hometown. He said that he wanted to adopt one of his children and nephews, so that he could live a stable life without any hassle.
Ning Jiayin felt sad after hearing this. Having too many concubines would be a mess, but some people just want good things when they are rich. This was always the case in previous lives, let alone in ancient times.
"How many people have Wang Wu and Geng Qiang contacted come here?" This yard was originally bought for them.
"They have been coming one after another in the past few days, seven or eight have come already, and there will be more to come."
"The yard has been purchased. Uncle Li will place them there. Ask them if they know how to do masonry work, and ask them to enclose the open space on the east side first. If they don't know how, you can find someone else."
As long as the courtyard wall is pulled up, it will be convenient.
The chief steward responded quickly.
The whole body is full of energy, just do it and it’s over.
