It wasn't until the last ray of glow disappeared and night fell that the Health Care Building sent away the last table of customers and closed the store door.
All the ingredients prepared by the restaurant were sold out, not a single dish was left.
The cozy bakery next to it also sold out all its pastries and closed early.
Pan Shichang, Feng An and He Ping are calculating today's income.
Nuan Nuan picked up the account book, looked through it, and calculated the amount.
A total of 300 health dishes were launched today. This health dish is scrambled eggs with tomatoes. It costs ten taels of silver. With a 10% discount, there was a total profit of 2,700 taels.
Most of the other dishes were one or two taels, but I still made a total of 5,520 taels.
After deducting the ingredients and labor, which is more than 500 taels, the net profit today is nearly 7,700 taels!
The bakery also made a profit of ninety-eight taels, but this was because they were worried about selling out and did not prepare too much.
People in the queue came to buy it when they were hungry. Then they tasted it and thought it was delicious, so they bought more!
When Wen Jiarui heard this number, he felt like he was making money every day.
No wonder Sister Nuan said that after the restaurant opens, you don’t have to worry about not having enough money.
Starting tomorrow, there will be no discounts in the store, and the number of health-preserving vegetables is limited to 100.
Even the green vegetables will have meat in them, and every healthy dish is a dozen.
In other words, just selling healthy vegetables will make a profit of one thousand taels every day.
Today we received more than 300 tables of guests.
There may not be as many people as today in the future, but Wen Nuan can guarantee that the income from the one hundred healthy dishes will definitely not be less!
The restaurant business was so good, Wen Nuan told Pan Shichang: "Hire a few more waiters and kitchen helpers, and I'll buy a few more cooks to make everyone work harder during this period. It will be better later! I will give you bonuses then!"
"okay, I get it."
After explaining what happened at the restaurant, the family returned to the village that night.
This night, it was not just Nuan and the others who were calculating how much money the Nuan family had earned today, but the aunt's family and Dafang's family were all gathered in the restaurant's accounting room to make estimates.
Then both families were frightened by the astonishing number!
"It's nothing more than fighting for gold every day!" Song Guiqiang said.
Wen Jiafu felt as if a charcoal furnace had been set up in his heart, and he was in agony!
The restaurants in his town can't even make a fraction of what Lao Si's family earns every day!
Wen Jiafu: "What's the deal with health-preserving vegetables? Why are so many people rushing to buy them?"
Twelve taels of silver were robbed in less than half an hour. How crazy is that!
Song Jinxin explained: "...I heard that it can cure diseases, strengthen the body, and prolong life."
Wen Jiafu was so shocked that he almost dropped his jaw: "It's just a gimmick! Cure diseases, strengthen the body, and prolong life? Are you sure this is not medicine? Is it still a fairy vegetable?"
Song Guiqiang: “It’s just that I’ve never heard of what kind of vegetable tomatoes are!”
A pound of tomatoes can fetch ten taels of silver per pound? Are you sure this is a vegetable, not gold
Song Jinxin: "It seems to be vegetables imported from overseas."
Song Guiqiang: "Jiafu, go back to the village and find out where their health vegetables are purchased from."
Song Jinxin: "Could it be that the fourth cousin's family grew it themselves?"
Wen Jiafu: "Probably not. I didn't see his family growing a lot of vegetables! I'll go back and ask the fourth child."
A dish of healthy vegetables cost ten taels of silver, and the daily limit was 100. Everyone rushed to buy it, which meant that they were guaranteed to earn a thousand taels of silver a day. This was as good as heaven!
Wen Jiafu is extremely itchy. He must find out where the healthy vegetables come from!
No matter what, his restaurant must sell healthy vegetables!
—
The next day, Wen Jiarui went to the county restaurant again early in the morning to watch.
Wenxin and Qingdai also got up early and made many more pastries and sent them to the county town to open a shop.
Mrs. Wang had nothing to do at home. When she saw that the business of the pastry shop was so good, she also brought Chunhua Qiushi to help.
Nuan Nuan also went to Yaxing in the county town and Fucheng, planning to buy more servants and come back. The restaurant was too busy.
After Wen Nuan and others left, Mr. Wen came to the door again.
Mrs. Wang was kneading dough when she heard Feng Xiaojian come to report that Mr. Wen was looking for her.
She said without raising her head: "No!"
When Mr. Wen saw that Mrs. Wang did not see him, he said to look for Wen Jiarui, but Wen Jiarui went out.
Mr. Wen had no choice but to go home in despair.
Zhu and Wen Jiafu were still waiting for news about him at home. Seeing his dejected look, what else could they not understand
"What's wrong? Mrs. Wang doesn't want to see you, right? She is now the fourth-grade imperial concubine, and they still take you as my husband seriously!"
"Okay, Guizhi is not that kind of person, she just hasn't calmed down yet!"
"Dad, if my aunt doesn't see you, won't you look for the fourth child? You are the fourth child's father. If you give him a hundred courages, he won't dare not see you!"
Otherwise, he will be slapped with an unfilial hat and he will be able to walk away with nothing to eat!
"Your fourth brother is not at home. When he comes back in the afternoon, I will go find him and ask him about the lettuce!"
It's just that Wen Jiarui is too busy, he's wearing the stars and the moon every day, and Mr. Wen has been looking for him for many days without seeing anyone.
Mr. Wen was so annoyed by Mrs. Zhu that he couldn't help it. The eldest son came home every night with a sad face, saying that there were no customers in the restaurant and he had lost money on wages and rent.
That evening, Mr. Wen was waiting outside Nuan Nuan's house, determined to see his son.
There was nothing he could do about Guizhi. Facing Guizhi, he always felt a little weak.
But the fourth child is his son, so he can't even miss his father!
Wen Jiarui went to a restaurant today, and then went to a ceramics workshop and a papermaking workshop on the outskirts of the town to help with work. It was not until dark that everyone stopped working, and he ate with the workers before returning.
It was already dark at this time. He rode back home. As soon as he jumped off the horse, Mr. Wen came out of the darkness.
He was startled: "Dad? Why are you here!"
"Fourth brother! Make it easy for me to find him!"
Wen Jiarui: "......"
"Dad, what do you want from me?"
"Can you give that healthy vegetable to your elder brother's restaurant..."
Wen Jiarui was a little disappointed when he heard it, but he still didn't give up.
"Dad, there's nothing I can do about this. Master Qi asked our restaurant to sell it, and we don't know where it came from! The money earned doesn't belong to our restaurant either."
Mr. Wen didn't expect this answer: "That's it! Can you ask Master Seventeen to sell health vegetables in your eldest brother's restaurant?"
"Dad, why is there a daily limit on lettuce? It's because it's difficult to grow! Otherwise, who wouldn't want to make more money and sell more every day, right? Seventeenth Master said that there is a daily limit of 100 and he might not be able to get it It’s out! You go back and tell big brother! You don’t have to think about health vegetables.”
These words were all what Nuan Nuan told him to say.
"That's it! Then can you share half of the health food and put it in your brother's restaurant? His restaurant's business is really bad now, there is no one left. Brother Liang also wants to..."
At this time, the door opened, a wolf howled, and a black shadow rushed directly towards Mr. Wen.
Mr. Wen was thrown to the ground, and the sharp fangs touched his neck. He trembled all over and peed in fear!
It’s over! Dead!
