In the end, Zhong Ziqi still didn't heed Zhao Zhengan's advice to open the restaurant with the money. But he is not without any ideas, especially in the past few days he has thought about it carefully.
Because his fried dough sticks and fried dough sticks are relatively new in this world, they have won the hearts of many people. Young people especially like to eat fried dough sticks, while the elderly are not as good because they are too greasy, and fried dough sticks will definitely capture the hearts of all young and old.
And people who saw this market couldn't sit still, so restaurants in other surrounding towns often came to discuss with him whether they could provide them with a certain amount.
Zhong Ziqi thought that he might as well hire a few people to fry deep-fried fried dough sticks and twisted doughnuts for these restaurants every day, which would be a considerable amount of income.
In this way, you can easily be your own boss, and you can make money without offending others.
Zhong Ziqi shared this idea with Zhao Zhengan, and Zhao Zhengan naturally had no objection, as long as his daughter-in-law said what she wanted to do, it was fine, and he also thought it was good, so they didn't have to worry about it every day. , especially Zhong Ziqi was as busy as a spinning top every day, he felt very distressed and wanted him to rest a long time ago.
Since it was going to be done, it had to be done as soon as possible. It was rare for Zhong Ziqi not to procrastinate and take the initiative. It was really too cold in winter, and he wanted to go home to Maodong.
Now that I have decided to be a supplier, I must have a place to work, and it should not be too far away, otherwise it will be inconvenient to travel.
Zhao Zhengan just wandered around in the town, and it sounded like he really found out that a family was going to sell their house. The family only had an old couple living in the town, and the son was doing business in another town. The parents took it, and the old couple were naturally happy to be with their son again, but the house was empty and empty, and they never came back, so they wanted to sell it.
The price was quite high at first, but because it was too expensive and the house was still a bit old, no one bought it all the time. The old couple was anxious, and the son was urging them, so they had to lower it in the end.
Just in time, Zhao Zheng'an came to inquire, took the opportunity to press down a little more, and finally bought the house.
Zhong Ziqi looked at the small courtyard. Although it was located a bit off the beaten path, it was in an alley, but luckily it was just a few steps away from the street. It's acceptable.
The size of the house was large enough, and the yard was not small. Zhong Ziqi looked at it with satisfaction, and went around and told Zhao Zhengan to open up the house.
"Tell me what you plan to do?" Zhao Zheng'an asked Zhong Ziqi.
Zhong Ziqi stood in the room, looked at him, and said with gestures: "It happens that his room is relatively long, so let's open up this room, and we can leave a door here for business and conversation. After opening up, all the people in the room Cleared away all the things, set up a few stoves, set up a few tables, and put two cabinets on the side to store rice noodles and so on... "
Zhong Ziqi talked about it for a long time, and finally eliminated some unrealistic ones.
In fact, it is very simple to sum up in one sentence, just decorate it.
Zhao Zheng'an said that he understood, just leave this matter to him, and it will be done well.
Amo Zhao and the others heard that the two bought a house and wanted to expand the scale. They were all very envious. They felt that the two children were getting ahead a little bit. Thinking about how difficult it was at the beginning!
"Ziqi, if you go over there, what about here?" Zhao Amo asked.
Their tofu nao and porridge can be sold even without fried dough sticks, but the business will definitely drop a lot.
"Here I plan to hire someone to sell it. I don't know who are good people in our village, Zhao Ah, please tell me."
Zhong Ziqi asked, while he was about to start paying attention now, when the house was decorated, he was about to train people out to open the house.
Zhao Ama pondered for a while: "If you want to say that people are good, there are indeed a few. The two daughters-in-law of Lizheng's family are both straightforward and never take advantage of petty advantages. They have a good reputation in the village."
"And... remember Brother Zhao Lan in the village?" Zhao Ama asked Zhong Ziqi.
Zhong Ziqi thought for a long time before she remembered who Zhao Lan was. He was the brother who was abused at his husband's house and was taken back because of his resistance. His mother's house didn't let him in because they disliked him and was ashamed and kicked him out.
Now this guy lives at the end of the village, and usually earns his living by embroidery. Without land, without men, without outstanding craftsmanship, one can imagine how difficult life would be.
"Brother Lan is also poor. It turned out that he was the most capable in the village when he was not married. Many people fell in love with him, but he found the wrong person and ruined his life." Zhao Ama sighed: "He He is also very strong, and will never accept anyone's charity unless it is particularly difficult."
Zhong Ziqi nodded with all her thoughts, and said that she would think about it. He has never really contacted him, and he doesn't know what kind of person he is. This matter is not urgent. He is a troublesome person, so he must ensure that there will be no accidental entanglement unclear.
In the evening, Zhong Ziqi and Zhao Zhengan talked about this matter, and asked Zhao Zhengan what he thought and whether there was a suitable candidate.
Zhao Zheng'an also darkened his eyes: "You can figure it out. Lange is quite a nice person. If he behaves according to his behavior, he will not soften his heart even if there is trouble in the other party's family. After all, his mother's family's attitude in recent years It's too chilling. No matter how much expectation family affection is, it will be worn away. If the family affection is soft-hearted, it's just stupid filial piety, then the Zhao family can still kick him aside if they get what they want. Ask, I think Brother Lang should understand this truth."
"Well, let's find him. It's not easy to be alone."
Zhong Ziqi finally made a decision. But he didn't rush to find him, but waited for the decoration of the house.
Only Zhao Zheng'an can't do this decoration work alone, and Zhao Zheng'an didn't look for it in the village, so as not to cause controversy, but found a few big men who work in the town, these are Zhong Ziqi's old rice. He has been there since selling bone soup noodles, and now they open "Quite Delicious", which is even worse.
Zhao Zhengan just asked who had time, and four or five stood up. Zhao Zhengan led the people to the courtyard with a big wave of his hand.
Now it is the twelfth lunar month of winter, and the workers are very difficult to work.
While Zhong Ziqi paid her wages, she also generously provided them with a lunch. Of course, lunch would definitely not be fritters. There is a kitchen in the house, and Zhong Ziqi would make a pot of hot vegetable soup and then heat some dry food for them to eat.
The same hot water is also prepared, whoever is cold can drink a bowl to warm up the body.
Just in such a hurry, six or seven days were completely busy.
Only then did Zhong Ziqi start looking for someone, and the first thing he went to was Lizheng's two daughters-in-law. This was also Zhong Ziqi's first visit. He first went to Lizheng's eldest son's house, and Lizheng's eldest daughter-in-law was at home.
"Brother Qi is here? Rare visitor! Come in!"
Lizheng's eldest daughter-in-law is Zhao Xuemei, who was born and raised in Zhaojia Village, and his father is a senior member of the clan in the village!
"Brother Qi!" Little Huzi was also at home, and when he saw Zhong Ziqi coming, he obediently called for someone.
Zhong Ziqi smiled and patted Huzi's head.
Zhao Xuemei hurried to pour water for Zhong Ziqi.
"Brother Mei, don't bother me, I have something to talk to you about today!" Zhong Ziqi said directly without hiding the words: "I am short of manpower for business in the town, I wonder if you would like to come, Brother Mei?" Help? The salary is negotiable!"
Zhao Xuemei was taken aback when she heard the words, she didn't expect Zhong Ziqi, who hadn't been here for thousands of years, to come to him for this reason, and now Zhong Ziqi and Zhao Zhengan's business is booming in ten miles and eight villages, apparently they don't know, and some people say that there are powerful people behind the two of them , the largest restaurant in the town supports them!
Even the father-in-law often told them to establish a good relationship with their family and not to provoke them. Now it's amazing!
"What? Brother Mei, aren't you unwilling?" Zhong Ziqi asked puzzled seeing that Zhao Xuemei didn't respond for a long time. If he didn't want to, he couldn't force it!
Zhao Xuemei came back to her senses and nodded hastily: "I am willing... I am willing... I am also idle at home, if I have work to do, I will naturally be willing!"
"That's good. Do you have time to go to town with me tomorrow?"
Zhao Xuemei hurriedly replied: "Yes..."
After making an appointment with Zhao Xuemei, Zhong Ziqi will not stay any longer, and he has to go to several other houses to ask.
Not long after sending Zhong Ziqi away, Zhao Hai came back from Lizheng's house. Zhao Xuemei told Zhong Ziqi about looking for him: "I agreed without discussing with you. It's a good appointment. It's a pity to leave it to others. I'm also idle at home, what do you think?"
Zhao Hai thought for a while: "Okay, since you agreed, let's go, it happens that you and your sister-in-law are companions."
Although the village is quite taboo for a brother to show his face outside, but if he is doing serious things, no one can say anything, and they can't stop the village from talking badly, so they can't give up the good opportunity because of this!
Zhong Ziqi left Zhao Hai's house and went to Zhao Hai's younger brother's house. After explaining her intentions, she naturally agreed and had no objections.
The last family Zhong Ziqi was looking for was Zhao Ershu's daughter-in-law, Lingzi. A very introverted and honest person, Uncle Zhao's son is also an honest and honest person, he didn't express his opinion after hearing Zhong Ziqi's intention, but looked at his father and his mother.
Uncle Zhao's man grinned and nodded happily: "Okay, let Lingzi go, otherwise he will be bored at home all day, I'm afraid he will be bored to death!"
Lingzi just smiled shyly at Zhong Ziqi when she heard the words.
In the end, all three were finalized, and Zhong Ziqi went home. He planned to go to Zhao Lan's place tomorrow. Tomorrow, he would first teach the three of them how to make deep-fried dough sticks, and they would officially sell them the day after tomorrow.
He has already asked Zhao Zhengan to say hello to other restaurants, and anyone who wants can come and place an order.
I came back early today, and it was not completely dark yet.
"How is it? We're done talking?" Zhao Zhengan asked, pouring a bowl of hot water for Zhong Ziqi to drink.
Zhong Ziqi felt much warmer in his stomach after drinking it: "It's all discussed, I will go to town with me tomorrow, and I will go to Brother Lang's tomorrow!"
"Well...you decide!" Zhao Zhengan nodded.
"I went to cook!"
"I've already heated up the food!"
"have a future!"
Zhong Ziqi sniffed and patted Zhao Zhengan's shoulder!
Zhao Zheng'an squeezed his hand and pulled it closer to the brazier: "It's getting hot soon, and my hands are red from freezing!"
Zhong Ziqi laughed! The obedient baked his hands.
