The next morning, at the entrance of Wang Ji Noodle Restaurant, Boss Wang rubbed his hands and stretched his neck to look south.
"Dad, isn't Tugen here yet? If you don't do it, it will be too late to open the store." Boss Wang's son walked out of the door of the noodle shop and asked.
Boss Wang said angrily: "I'm not waiting here! Alas, this soil root is also true. It's early in the morning, we're about to open the store, so don't come here."
The two stared at the door for a while, feeling extremely anxious. Until a figure appeared on the other side of the road with a big bag on his back and a bag in his hand, the two suddenly lit up and finally came.
"Hey, here we come, Dad, here we come!" Boss Wang's son shouted excitedly when he saw the figure.
"I saw it! What are you talking about!" Boss Wang said angrily.
When the figure walked in, Boss Wang immediately said, "Oh, Tugen, why are you here so late? I'm going to open a shop soon! Go to the weighing, Aminna said."
"Okay!" Boss Wang's son, Wang Ming, immediately went to the rest room to get the scale.
The man named Tugen wiped the sweat from his forehead, followed the two of them into the back yard, unloaded the basket, opened the sack in his hand, and said, "I'm really sorry, Boss Wang, I went to pick some more in the morning. , I came a little late. The inside was dried a little, and I picked it yesterday afternoon. I was afraid that it would rot, so I dried it again. The basket was just picked this morning, and it is still fresh. "
"It's all right." Boss Wang used the weighing hook to hook the basket and the sack, weighed them respectively, and said, "This side of the basket is sixteen pounds, and the sack is five and a half pounds!"
He poured the tremella into two boxes and said to his son, "Okay, Amin, go do it!"
"Father, use this half-dried one or this fresh one?" Wang Ming asked.
"You are stupid, of course use fresh! Otherwise, how can it be in time! Half-dried should be soaked!"
"Oh, I see." Wang Ming carried the fresh bag of white fungus into the kitchen.
Tugen watched Wang Ming enter the kitchen, and he asked curiously, "Boss Wang, what are you doing with this white fungus?"
Boss Wang smiled sloppily and said, "It's nothing, just make a little money. Let's call it the back basket again."
Afraid that Tugen would continue to ask, knowing that the white fungus soup they made with white fungus was very popular, the price would increase, so he hurriedly changed the subject, and also called the empty back basket and sack, and said, "If the skin is four pounds or six taels, even if you Four and a half catties. After removing the skin, the white fungus is seventeen catties in total. Look, right?"
"Yes." Tugen nodded.
"Come on, Tugen, let's do the math, a total of seventeen catties, six cents per catty, sixty cents for ten catties, and forty-two cents for seven catties, so the total is, eh, one hundred and two cents. You See it or not?"
Tugen scratched his head. He couldn't count Boss Yu so fast. After a while, he nodded and said, "Hey, yes."
"Here, one hundred and two cents, you've got it. Next time you have to go earlier, we almost missed something important." Boss Wang counted out one hundred and two cents from his wallet and handed it to Tugen , and told him to come earlier in the future.
"Okay, I'll pick some up the day after tomorrow."
Tu Gen took the money and left happily. He also forgot to ask Boss Wang what he wanted the inedible white fungus for. He was in a hurry to go to the market to buy some meat and go back. The autumn harvest has made the whole family exhausted. Now, I want to buy some meat and go back to satisfy everyone's cravings.
The white fungus was in place, and the father and son of the Wang family were very happy. Let's wash it and make a white fungus soup. Hurry up and hurry up, and finally make the white fungus soup shortly after the store opened.
"Little Er, two bowls of Tremella Soup!" A young brother brought a five- or six-year-old boy into Wangji Noodle Restaurant. They came to eat the Tremella Soup. Yesterday, I heard the neighbors next door say that the white fungus soup here is sweet, crunchy and delicious, so they also wanted to try it.
"Come on!" Xiao Er shouted loudly, put two bowls of red jujube and white fungus lotus seed soup, and said with a smile: "The white fungus soup that just came out of the oven, please take your time."
"Little Er, here is a bowl of Liangpi, and another bowl of Tremella soup!" A customer on the other side ordered.
"Okay, here we come!"
…
"Fortunately, I caught up." Boss Wang stood at the door of the kitchen, wiping the sweat from his forehead, and said with emotion.
Wang Ming's work was over, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Father, why don't we let the soil roots dry and send them over? Like the one a few days ago, what a good deal, the same price, dried in the sun, soaked in water, It can be made into a big pot. You see today's, fresh, and it will be weighed again."
Boss Wang rolled his eyes at him and said, "Do you think people can't think of it? A few days ago, they were too late to send them over for the autumn harvest, but they had to pick them before drying them. Now that people are free, they can still give Do you sell it after drying? You still want a price, haven't you woken up from your dream?"
"Hey hey, I'm not talking about it. Otherwise, we can adjust the price." Wang Ming suggested again.
Boss Wang thought for a while and said, "It's okay to adjust the price, but we don't have any stock, so it's always a problem. In our hometown, there are white fungus in their village. If they didn't send it over, where would we find it? Moreover, this thing doesn’t come every day, and they can’t pick it if the roots don’t grow in the woods.”
"Otherwise, I'll go to the market to inquire and ask those villagers who have white fungus in the mountains near their homes, pick them and send them to us?" Wang Ming suggested again.
Boss Wang thought it was feasible, he patted his son on the shoulder, and said, "You stinky boy, finally got back to business. Okay, just as you said, you can go to the market and ask. By the way, by the way, go down to the west side. Come back to the market, buy some Liangpi, and then ask the old man, let's add some money and see if he sells the recipes. That old man must be disgusted by our low price, so I don't believe that we can't buy it back. You Let’s talk about it carefully, we can save a lot of money by buying back the recipe!”
"Okay, I'll go now."
Like a few days ago, Tremella soup and Liangpi sold very well, and the sales of noodles along the way increased a little.
Boss Wang is very satisfied, thinking in his heart that when he gets the method of making Liangpi, he believes that he will be able to make more money. The sullenness in his heart that had been held back by his nemesis and Yu Ji for a while finally dissipated.
While talking, his husband came over. He sighed and said to his husband, "Father, it's fortunate that you heard this recipe, otherwise we'll lose money again this month."
Wang Fulang smiled and said, "It's also a coincidence. Yesterday, my brother-in-law asked me how I knew where I was eating."
"Oh? How did you answer?" Boss Wang asked curiously.
Wang Furang replied: "I said that I accidentally heard what Yu Ji said before. Huang Furang didn't like me very much. I came back after hearing it that day, I was afraid that he would find out, and then I would not know how to run on me."
"Hmph, don't pay attention to him, he has a few husbands, he must be jealous of you." Boss Wang comforted his husband.
Wang Furang gave him a sideways glance, and said with a smile, "Hehe, are you complimenting yourself?"
Boss Wang was in a good mood. He put his arms around his husband's shoulder and said, "Isn't it? Look at me, you are the only husband. He doesn't know how to be jealous of you."
"Screw you… "
The business came up, and the two husbands were in the mood to talk and laugh again.
By noon, the seventeen catties of white fungus bought in the morning had used up five catties.
Boss Wang sighed, this fresh one is not as durable as the dried one, but it is easier to boil than the dried one. The customer also said that today's tremella soup tastes better.
He began to struggle whether to use fresh or dried. The fresh taste is good, but the cost of drying is significantly lower. If you want to make money, you still have to use it.
It would be nice if Tugen could accept the same price and sell it dry, but it is very difficult.
But he hadn't figured out the result yet. A group of men and brothers outside came in with a brother and another crying little brother.
"Where's the boss? Get out of here, the boss! What are you selling, my husband and my son have eaten like this!" It was a stick that instantly smashed the tableware and chopsticks on the table that had not been cleaned up.
When the other guests who were dining in the noodle restaurant were shocked when they saw it, they all stopped their movements and looked at the group of people.
When Xiao Er saw this group of people were fierce, as if they were here to find fault, he hurriedly ran into the kitchen and shouted, "Boss, there is a group of people here to find fault."
Boss Wang's husband also heard the movement. He went out and saw that the tableware and chopsticks on the table were all smashed. He frowned and asked, "This guest, what are you doing? Breaking my tableware and chopsticks is scary. To my guests, but to lose money!"
When the man saw the boss coming out, he was immediately angry and scolded: "You black-hearted boss, are you going crazy trying to make money? What kind of white fungus soup are you selling? It's poisonous. Let's see what my husband and son eat. already?!"
With that said, the man pulled a five- or six-year-old brother and another young brother out of his back.
Everyone saw, oh, these two people, the skin on the face, neck, and some skin near the collarbone, as well as the two arms were all red and swollen, the child's body. There were even many blisters, and many were scratched, revealing the tender meat inside.
The red and swollen skin of the two was covered with a thin layer of white ointment. It looked like they had seen the doctor, but they still looked terrible, as if they had been scalded by boiling water.
The child was crying, his eyes were swollen, it should be extremely itchy, he couldn't help but wanted to reach out and scratch, but he was stopped by an old man next to him, which was miserable.
"Yeah, it's so miserable, it looks so itchy."
"Well, what's going on here?"
"I heard that you ate tremella soup, oh, I ate a bowl just now! Brother, are your husband and son sure they ate this kind of tremella soup?" There were guests who ate tremella soup. Worried asked.
The man nodded and said, "I just came to eat this Tremella soup in the morning! It was fine before I ate it in the morning. After I went back, my husband took his son to play in the yard, and he didn't eat anything again. Within an hour, my body started to itch! After a while, it became so red and swollen! The doctor said it was poisoned!"
A few guests who also ate Tremella soup were panicked when they heard it.
"It's over, I just ate it, what should I do?"
"I ate it too, and ate two bowls! Boss, how can you sell poisonous white fungus soup?!"
"That's right, hey, what to do, I feel itchy too!" A guest said anxiously, rubbing his arms here and there.
"… "
Seeing this situation, Boss Wang got angry and said, "Bullshit! I've been selling my Tremella soup for a few days, and if I were to be poisoned, it would already be poisoned! You can ask the people around me, my Tremella soup is selling well. How many days? Did something happen?! I also want to ask you guys, everyone else is fine, why is it just the two of you?!"
Wang Fulang also said: "That is, you are afraid that you didn't come to corrupt us on purpose?!"
When the other guests heard it, they thought it was reasonable and nodded.
When there was a customer, he said: "Yes, this has been sold for a few days, and nothing happened, so what happened to you eating?"
"Yes, on North Street, it's not uncommon for people to deliberately pretend to be ill and defraud money. It's not surprising that they are full of tricks."
Seeing that a guest was helping him, Boss Wang became even more imposing, and said, "This guest, if you have no money to spend, even though my old king is not rich, I can still donate a pen or two to you, but you come like this. As soon as it comes out, it's not suitable, right? If you are acquainted, leave quickly, and I won't care about my tableware and chopsticks. If you continue to make trouble, then we will see you at the government!"
When the group of men heard this, they were instantly furious and scolded.
When the young brother heard this, he was so anxious that he scolded: "You bastard! We just ate here at your place! Your boss is so bad! If you don't admit it, you're wronging us! Look at me! A good face has become like this! My son is so young, but he suffers like this. If scars are left, what will we do in the future?!"
The onlookers looked at the red and swollen faces of the two brothers, and they all sighed.
They are also unlucky.
"You black-hearted boss, you don't even admit that you sold poisonous things! Do you think we are easy to bully?! Brother, don't talk nonsense with him, smash his shop and avenge Xiao Wu and the others!"
"That's right, I thought that your family was rich! Although my Hu family is not rich in Tongshan City, is it not as good as your own small noodle restaurant! Brother, don't talk nonsense, just beat him up and be honest. !"
Saying that, two men rushed out of the group, rolled up their sleeves, kicked the table and chairs, and even stepped forward to beat people.
When Wang Fulang saw a group of people surrounding him, he suddenly screamed loudly: "Oh, help! It's unreasonable! Those who have corrupted money will be beaten!"
When the onlookers saw that a fight was about to begin, they hurriedly avoided it, for fear of being affected.
Seeing this scene, the little child was frightened and cried even louder.
Seeing this, the man who took the lead hurriedly stopped the two younger brothers, "Second, third, wait, don't be impulsive! Third, go and invite the doctor! Second, go to their kitchen, don't let them destroy the evidence !"
"Okay, big brother!" A man turned around and went out.
Another man galloped into the kitchen.
Boss Wang snorted and said: "It's just right for the doctor to come! Just in time to expose your conspiracy! At that time, hum, all the losses in my store, the tables, chairs, tableware, and business during this period, will all be paid by you!"
The man glared angrily, he had never seen such a shameless person.
"Exactly, when the doctor comes, I want to see how you will compensate my husband and my son for their losses!"
The two do not give in to each other.
At this moment, another group of people came in with a little brother.
"Where's the boss! Get out of here! Turtle bastard! What the hell are you selling, my brother's face has been ruined by you!"
