Su Tang turned her head directly, pretending that nothing happened, and then negotiated with the owner of the Yingchun Tower.

Although we know that he has the intention of cheating, we must first understand the situation before we speak.

The owner didn't expect that someone would be taken advantage of, and he quickly said the price he wanted.

"At the beginning, I leased the store in Yingchun Building for five years. Now it has been one and a half years, and there is still a three-and-a-half-year contract. Seventy-two taels, this is the price I talked about back then."

The owner continued: "This is the rent price, it is all for the landlord, and has nothing to do with me. But the restaurant decoration and utensils are mine. As long as you transfer the transfer fee of fifty taels, as long as you sign the agreement, these are all yours! "

Su Tang looked at the environment of the restaurant, his expression unchanged: "It turns out that the price is like this, please help me calculate the price of the steamer first, and think about it when I go home."

"Come on, such a good price, but many people are waiting to ask the price. Seeing this friend next to you, he looks extraordinary, and you can always get this little money." The owner of Yingchun Tower glanced at Qi Tianyun, Scared back.

Su Tang said lightly: "If you don't want to do this steamer business, then that's fine."

She didn't give the other party a chance to see the expression. The owner of the Yingchun Building felt annoyed and asked the guy to quickly wrap up the steamer. Now it's a little bit of something to produce.

When the steamer was made to order, it was still worth a fortune, but now these few add up to fifty dollars.

Su Tang walked out of the Yingchun Building, and only then took a look back.

Qi Tianyun said: "If you want to buy, I will negotiate the price for you."

Others might not be able to see it, but Qi Tianyun could tell that she wanted to buy it.

Su Tang shook his head: "Now is still the time to ask for a price and pay back the money on the spot. It's not too late to talk about it."

Indeed, just now, the owner of Yingchun Tower opened his mouth wide, not to mention the rent, how dare he ask her for fifty taels just for the transfer fee

I'm afraid their store's profit is not so much.

While they were standing at the door talking, another person came out from inside, it was Hao Quankun who had just choked on Su Tang.

Hao Quankun frowned, and said to Su Tang: "Don't be so stupid as to take over. It's time to pay the rent for the second half of the year. If you let go of it, you will lose a day, let alone the complicated business of opening a store. He is the one who paid the price just now. I'm cheating on you."

Although Hao Quankun couldn't understand Su Tang's craftsmanship and felt that she was opportunistic, but as a colleague, he couldn't bear to see the little girl being cheated.

How many people came to ask the price of the restaurant and left directly.

The three-storey restaurant is stylish, but there are too many places where money is spent.

For such a big place, there must be a buddy, and now the owner is so stingy that he has hired four people.

Not to mention the back kitchen, there are also four or five helpers.

There are also account managers and gatekeepers. These people have a lot of money for food and drink.

Even if the transfer fee is negotiated, there is still a fixed loss of rent, and the monthly money of these guys.

Su Tang didn't expect that the chef looked angry, but in fact he was thinking about her, and he just let go of his irritability.

"Thank you, I will consider it carefully. Just a question, do you know how much the guy here pays every month?"

Hao Quankun hesitated and said: "It seems to be three qian silver."

Three dollars, which is actually less than her monthly money at the breakfast shop.

Su Tang nodded, already had an account in mind.

Seeing that she still had plans to sell the restaurant, Hao Quankun had no choice but to leave in frustration. To be honest, he also wanted to find another job, so he had to go to Dongcheng to try his luck and see if anyone wanted him as a "chef".

The main reason is that he has no apprenticeship, he is considered a half-way cook, and many people don't trust him.

In addition to the precedent of the closure of the Yingchun Building, some taboo bosses would not want him at all.

Qi Tianyun was watching from the side, seeing that Su Tang had a good plan in doing things, he pointed out: "If the assistant is three renminbi a month, the chef can get about five renminbi, and the rest of the assistant cooks are only about three renminbi, and the apprentices are probably even lower. But after this month, the monthly payment alone will cost nearly three taels of silver."

It has been said many times before that in this era, two taels of silver can provide food and drink for an ordinary family of three in the suburbs for a year.

Even if the price in the capital is more expensive, it will not be so much more expensive.

But if Su Tang really wanted to sell this store, he would pay the living expenses for a year and a half in January.

It's really not a small amount.

In addition, there is a fixed monthly rent of five taels, and scattered money, which costs about ten taels a month.

Qi Tianyun never thought that he would think carefully about ten taels of silver, this is simply unprecedented.

On weekdays, hundreds of taels of general affairs would not come into his eyes.

However, it does make some sense.

Su Tang also made up her mind, but she had already seen the surrounding environment on the way here, and she had a plan in mind.

If the transfer fee of fifty taels can be reduced, she will accept it.

It's just that if she really wants to sell this store, she will spend another seven or eighty eighty eighty eighty-eight dollars of her money.

But Su Tang is not a hesitant person, since she wants to open a restaurant, she will open it.

Her small restaurant is just expanding, so why not.

After returning to Su's small restaurant from Yingchun Tower, Su Tang had already made up her mind that she would buy it at the transfer price of ten taels, and then start opening the shop!

Qi Tianyun saw her beautiful eyes rolling back and forth along the way, and his little thoughts almost flew out, he just thought it was very cute.

Qi Tianyun asked someone to deliver the steamer to the back kitchen of her home, cleared his throat and said, "If you have any trouble, you can come to me."

Su Tang answered yes casually, and saw Qi Tianyun leave directly.

Wait, aren't you here for dinner? Why did you leave

But Qi Tianyun's thinking is, you don't even know where my family lives, so how can you come to me if you are in trouble

It really is perfunctory, little liar.

The two "have their own thoughts", but they are thinking about each other.

Although Su Tang wanted to sell Yingchun Building in her heart, she didn't express her intention for the time being, she just asked someone to tell her that she wanted to buy it, but the transfer fee was too high.

He didn't say anything about the rest, even Su Tang himself never went to see it again, and didn't ask anyone to inquire about it.

In this way, the one who needs to be anxious is the owner of the Yingchun Building.

And Su Tang sat firmly in the small restaurant, waiting for the owner of Yingchun Building to come to him.

Now is the time to be more patient.

Su Tang was not in a hurry on the surface, but in private he settled the score.

Let’s say that Yingchun Building pays three taels a month, plus the usual maintenance and rent, the monthly cost is basically around ten taels.

The daily consumption allocated is almost three or four silver coins.

With such costs and expenses, it's no wonder that the shopkeeper of Yingchun Building is eager to sell.

If you don't do anything for a day, you will lose three or four dollars.

So she is not in a hurry now, it is the end of April, and it will be May soon, the first half of the year has passed in a blink of an eye, and Yingchun Building will have to pay the rent for the second half of the year.

Su Tang didn't believe that the owner of Yingchun Tower could sit still.

And she can sit still.

Su Tang's idea now is to prepare well for the fourth round of the God of Cooking Competition in May.

Although Hao Quankun didn't speak well, he also woke up Su Tang, as if she would be opportunistic in front of outsiders

It seems right to think about it this way.

Whether it's tofu mixed with shallots, green vegetable porridge, or steamed Sophora japonica, none of them are serious dishes.

Now that the competition has reached the fourth round, which is the fifty-to-thirty competition, she must show some real skills.

It's time to show everyone!

Let everyone see that she is not only good at cooking breakfast and cold dishes.

In addition to preparing for the competition, Su Tang also took care of the breakfast in the small restaurant.

But with Aunt Zhou and Wang Wu's wife here, basically she doesn't have to worry about it, the two of them are already very proficient.

That being the case, she can't neglect the two of them.

The one who came out to work was for the money in her hand, and she definitely couldn't be the black-hearted one who withheld money from the two of them.

When May comes, it's time to pay the monthly money for the previous month.

pay wages!

This matter is very important!

On the fourth day of May, and the day before the fourth round of the God of Cooking Competition, Aunt Zhou and Fifth Wife Wang were about to go home after lunch, but Su Tang called out to them.

"You two aunts, don't go back in a hurry." Su Tang smiled, closed the door of the small restaurant, and said, "It's time to pay the monthly money. From now on, it will be issued on the fourth and fifth of every month." , if I forget, remember to remind me.”

monthly money

Aunt Zhou and Fifth Wife Wang felt a little embarrassed when they heard this.

In fact, working here is much better than other places. Although the status of women is higher than before, there are few jobs for them these days.

Now when I come to Su's small restaurant, I don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and no matter how much I eat, the owner will not give me a blank stare.

Usually, the hosts are very polite and never shout and drink. They are more comfortable doing things here than at home.

Especially Wang Wu's daughter-in-law, as soon as she came home, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were all idle, so it was better to stay in a small restaurant.

Although the two of them didn't say this, they both thought of the good of the boss in their hearts.

Besides, although they didn't work in other shops, they also heard that it was normal to be in arrears of wages. Their boss was really not used to paying money so punctually.

Su Tang took out the account book, and first said to Aunt Zhou: "Auntie came here on the sixth day of April. Although it's not yet full moon, it's not too far away. In addition to the decoration of the small restaurant, Aunt Zhou has helped me a lot. I will give you a full month."

Su Tang weighed four taels of silver, and asked Aunt Zhou to look at the silver two small scales.

Aunt Zhou really didn't expect that the host would be so generous!

But she deserves the money.

After all, she didn't work for enough days, and she still had a few days off in a month. Although it was because the small restaurant was closed, it was also off.

Seeing her stunned expression, Su Tang put the money into her hand: "You deserve it, don't be too polite. If you don't make the amount, you can just sign it, Auntie."

Aunt Zhou looked at the money in her hand. This was the most monthly money she had received in recent years.

With this money, she can buy a new cloth for her family Zhou Cong, as well as some paper, and maybe she can even add some oil to her hair, which seems like she hasn't used it for a long time.

Now it is not a dream, it is really achievable.

When I arrived at Wang Wu's wife, she happened to come here on April 16th, and Su Tang paid her half a month's money, which was two qian.

The money was enough to excite her, even if her man went out to work and worked hard for a month, it was only five or six dollars. Her man still did the heaviest and most tiring work.

Now she is just helping out in small restaurants, these tasks are not worth mentioning to those who are used to them.

With the money in hand, Wang Wu's daughter-in-law couldn't help but pinch herself.

"Oh, this is not a dream!"

Aunt Zhou and Wu Wang's daughter-in-law were walking home with money, and suddenly became full of confidence.

Aunt Zhou was thinking about those mean neighbors, didn't she love cracking eggs at her door

She also fights today and wants to buy pork, so let the people around her know that she can also support her son and herself.

Those who laughed at her as a widow, now look at them, they are not even as good as a widow!

And Wang Wu's daughter-in-law is even more aggressive in her walks. Isn't her mother-in-law always mean to her

And the sister-in-law also joked that she couldn't have children, and she had only been married for more than a year, so it's normal to have no children.

Hehe, now seeing how capable she is, how dare you look down on her

I'm afraid I'm going to flatter her.

The man in her family works hard, and she also works hard. Maybe she can save a tael of silver in a month!

When you have saved enough money, you can buy a small yard by yourself. The couple's life will definitely be easier than it is now.

Aunt Zhou and Wang Wu's wife were not only thinking about these things in their hearts, they were also grateful to Su Tang.

If it weren't for Su Tang, their lives would not have changed so much, let alone such confidence.

All of this is due to Su Tang and their boss.
