In the south of the city, in the Zhao family mansion.
The housekeeper of Zhao's house is counting and registering the boxing ceremony. Every New Year's Day is their busiest time. The gifts sent by each family should be counted one by one, and what gifts were given by each family should be registered clearly, so as to facilitate the reference of the host family when giving gifts. And the gifts that they are going to send out have to be registered one by one, and a special book is made.
When registering for the boxing gift from Cai Mansion, the butler picked up the last box of dim sum, looked at the name and the name of the dim sum, and registered it: 'Yu Ji' moon cake is a box.
What is moon cake? Which new dim sum shop is Yu Kee? The butler opened the gift box and looked at it, and found that it was a variety of dim sum that he had never seen before. He closed the gift box, and gave the dim sum to the servant beside him. Taste it with the young master."
The servant next to him went with the gift box, and the butler continued to register.
After a while, the servant came back and said that the doctor was looking for him. The housekeeper went immediately.
"This dim sum tastes very good. I haven't tried it before. Is there a new dim sum shop in the city? I don't remember Yuji." , Seeing the butler coming, he said casually.
The housekeeper immediately replied: "Back to the boss, the old slave has never heard of it. The one called 'Yu Ji' in the city has only heard of the 'Yu Ji Yi Xian' who sells cold noodles, but they don't make dim sum."
"Who sent this?"
"Back to the doctor, it was sent by the Cai residence."
"Oh? Cai Mansion." The Zhao family man stood up, thought for a while, and said, "Go and find out where they bought it, let's change it up, and give snacks to those several families every year, and eat them all. Tired of it. By the way, I will buy a few more boxes and send a copy to each yard."
The butler bowed and replied, "Yes, sir."
Such a situation was quietly staged in many large mansions that received the gift of Cai Mansion.
In the afternoon, the busy meal time just passed and there were fewer guests. Yu Qingze and the others could finally rest for a while. Although not many moon cakes were sold, the business of cold noodles, cold noodles and oden was still very good. They were still busy. Feet do not touch the ground.
"Boss Yu, Brother Le, Dad, I bought the noodles, come and eat them." Brother Chang went to Liu Ji diagonally opposite to pack noodles. This is their lunch.
"Brother Le, Uncle, you eat first, I'll come right away." Yu Qingze quickly packed the oden that the guests asked for, and after receiving the money, he sat down on the small bench and began to eat.
The four sat under the umbrellas and ate their late lunch.
"In the future, let's take turns to eat. Eating too late is not good for your health." Yu Qingze swallowed a mouthful of noodles and said.
Brother Chang's father said, "Where can I find time? Noon is the busiest time. It's okay to eat later."
Brother Chang also said: "Yeah, it's not too late, I've formed a habit, and basically I only get hungry at this point, and I don't feel hungry at all when I'm busy."
Chang Le also nodded after hearing this.
Yu Qingze looked at them, sighed, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Several people shook their heads and continued to eat. There were still a few guests on the table, so they had to eat quickly.
At this moment, a middle-aged man came over and saw the moon cake gift box on the small table on the side. His eyes lit up and he asked Yu Qingze, "Boss, can I see your moon cake?"
When Yu Qingze saw someone coming to ask about moon cakes, he got up immediately and replied, "Yes, come here, guest, there are samples here, you can try the taste, there are several flavors, which one do you like?"
The middle-aged man tried them all, and then picked up the moon cake gift box to look at it. He successfully found the same name as the gift box at home, and asked happily, "Boss, how do you sell this moon cake? boxed."
Yu Qingze replied: "This four-season wealth gift box is one hundred and eight cents a box, a five-blessing gift box is one hundred and twenty-eight cents a box, a sixty-six Dashun gift box is one hundred and sixty-eight cents a box, and a seven-star high-photography gift box is one hundred and twenty-eight cents a box. A box of ninety-eight texts, as well as this perfect super-large gift box, a box of two hundred and eighty-eight texts. These are all fine-quality packaging, which are just right for Mid-Autumn Festival boxing gifts.”
The middle-aged man glared: "Why is it so expensive?"
Yu Qingze replied: "Guest, look at our dim sum, which has a thin skin and a lot of stuffing, but it is different from the dim sum in the world. Not to mention the effort, the ingredients are also very expensive and refined. The most important thing is the taste. Unique. What we want is this uniqueness, and we have a good meaning, do you think it is?"
The middle-aged man seemed a little hesitant. He looked at the person next to him and asked, "Why is this package different?"
Yu Qingze replied, "The one here is the luxury package, which is a bit more cost-effective than the premium package. Each box is 20 cents less."
"What about the loose ones?"
"One for the small eight, and one for the big sixteen."
"Boss, you are too different." The middle-aged man pointed at the bulk and packaged gift boxes and said in shock.
Yu Qingze said with a smile: "The guests are joking. We are not the same as people. Of course, moon cakes can be different from moon cakes."
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, then said, "You wait for me to think about it."
Yu Qingze smiled and said, "Okay, but please think about it quickly, we don't have much stock."
The middle-aged man waved his hand and turned away.
Yu Qingze saw him walking forward to a carriage, and then talking to the people inside by the carriage window. Yu Qingze chuckled lightly, turned around and went back to eat noodles.
Chang Le and the three of them also secretly listened to Yu Qingze talking to the guest. At this time, when the guest left, they all sighed, alas, they left again.
Seeing Yu Qingze sitting down, Chang Le put his chopsticks on the plate and gestured with his right hand: "Are you gone again?"
Yu Qingze glanced over there and smiled: "It's okay, I think he will come back, and maybe he is a big client."
All three stared at him in surprise.
When the three of them heard that Yu Qingze set a price for a single moon cake, they were all shocked, so expensive! A small moon cake the size of a child's fist costs eight cents a piece, while a larger one costs sixteen cents a piece, which is not as big as an adult's fist.
When they heard the price of the boxed moon cakes, they were completely dumbfounded, thinking that there was something wrong with their ears, and after confirming it three times in a row, they finally accepted the fact that there was no problem with the ears, it must be Yu Qingze's head. .
In the morning, they didn't sell a box of moon cakes, they were all in bulk, and not many were sold.
They couldn't figure it out, if such delicious moon cakes were sold at the same price as other dim sum shops, they would definitely be sold out in no time. Even if it is a small five-cent and a big eight-cent, it will definitely sell a lot.
However, at such a high price now, no one buys even the small ones that are worth 16 yuan, let alone the boxed ones.
They all felt it was a pity in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it outright, especially Brother Chang and his father, they could only think about it in their hearts, and comforted that Boss Yu must have his reasons for doing this.
Chang Le asked once, but Yu Qingze believed that someone would buy it.
But now I see that the business is not good, I am still worried, so worried that I can't eat the fragrant fried noodles.
Yu Qingze reached out and touched his eyebrows and said, "Don't frown, I said someone bought it, believe me, eh?"
Chang Le was startled by the sudden intimacy, and he quickly reached out to cover his eyebrows, his face flushed.
Now, where are Brother Chang and his father? !
Although I feel embarrassed, but there is some sweetness in my heart, it is really terrible.
Yu Qingze was also a little stunned after ordering. He acted completely subconsciously. He quickly glanced at Brother Chang and his father, and found that they both pretended to be eating noodles with their heads down and didn't look up, so he smiled at Chang Le and signaled. fine.
Chang Le lowered his head and stopped looking at him.
Yu Qingze: ... Be careful next time.
"boss!"
At this moment, the middle-aged man just now came back, followed by a servant.
"Hey, here we come!" Yu Qingze responded.
Chang Le and the three of them all looked at the guest in surprise.
Are you really back? !
Suddenly, the three of them stopped eating noodles, and pricked up their ears to listen to the movement over there.
The middle-aged man pointed to the boutique packaging and said, "This kind, two boxes of each kind; and this kind, also two boxes of each kind, and then scattered, I want to pick a flavor."
"Okay, then you can pick it slowly, and I'll pack it up for you." Yu Qingze replied.
Hearing that the guest wanted so many moon cakes, Chang Le and the others quickly put down the dishes and came to help.
The three were shocked, they were really big customers!
Half of their stock is gone at once!
The middle-aged man also picked out a lot of mooncakes in bulk. There are all kinds of flavors and sizes. At the end of the count, there are thirty small ones and twenty large ones.
Yu Qingze calculated the account directly with pen and paper, a total of 3920 articles.
The middle-aged man also took the abacus and calculated it by himself, making sure that it was correct, and then the money and the money were all over.
A few people helped the little servant and put all the moon cakes on the carriage, and when they came back, Chang Le and the three of them laughed stupidly.
"Someone really bought it!" Brother Chang's father said with emotion.
Brother Chang also felt like a dream, but he has been out for a long time, and he is a little more knowledgeable than his father. He said, "Rich people don't care about price, they care about rarity."
Chang Le nodded, too, his mouth closed with joy.
Yu Qingze collected the money, then looked at Chang Le and said, "Don't worry now? I said someone bought it."
Chang Le nodded excitedly and gestured: I always believed in you!
Yu Qingze is funny, he was worried to death before, but it has changed so quickly! well!
The middle-aged brother didn't leave for a long time, and two more people came after a while, also wanting to buy moon cakes. The two asked for more, and they wiped out their inventory at once.
Before the two guests left, three more people came. Seeing that the moon cakes were sold out, they sighed and said that they were late.
Yu Qingze hurriedly said: "If you are not in a hurry, you can make an appointment first, and come and pick it up tomorrow morning."
The three of them listened, quickly agreed, ordered the number, paid a part of the deposit, and went back with the note written by Yu Qingze.
A few more people came to buy moon cakes one after another. Yu Qingze estimated the amount made at home today. After receiving a few orders, he estimated that the amount would not be enough, so he told them. Some people want to give gifts. Tomorrow will be the 14th, which is the last gift-giving period. If they are not in line, they will order some bulk to eat at home and pick them up on the morning of the 15th.
By the time the stall was closed, not only were all the mooncakes that were not sold much in the morning sold out, but they were also reserved for tomorrow and the day after.
Chang Le and the others all smiled, and no longer doubted any of Yu Qingze's decisions.
After returning home in the evening to settle the accounts, Yu Qingze told Chang Le and Grandpa Chang that today, the moon cakes alone made more than seven taels of silver, and the pure profit did not include the part of Cai Mansion and the ones that were booked.
Hearing that they had made so much money, the three of them stared at Yu Qingze with wide eyes, in disbelief.
I made more than seven taels of silver in one day!
Can you imagine it before
Don't even think about it!
