Chapter 86 She still wants to open a hotpot restaurant
"It smells so good. How about you get some ingredients and give us a casserole on the table?"
That diner is a delicious food. When he smells such a fragrant aroma, he reminds himself of the hot pot he ate elsewhere. It contains fat beef, mutton, yuba, blood tofu, gluten, spinach, tofu skin, and finally a pack of instant noodles. Not to mention how delicious it is.
Chen Xiaoying hesitated: "Then I'll ask if there are enough ingredients for the hot pot."
When Chen Xiaoying went in to ask, Li Yutong was also surprised.
There are many ingredients in hot pot ingredients. It's not troublesome to fry just a little once, so she deliberately made more.
"Yes, I will order whatever the customer wants to eat."
The first casserole dish from Chen Li's Little Restaurant was sold like this. What Li Yutong didn't expect was that if any diners saw someone eating casserole dish at another table, they would most likely order it.
All day long, while waiting for Shen Jiaze, He Mingliang and others to arrive, Li Yutong calculated in his mind that the casseroles sold this afternoon far exceeded the barbecue bibimbap they originally sold.
This casserole is also easy to make.
Just fry the hot pot ingredients in advance, add all the ingredients that the guests want to eat, and it will be ready in less than a few minutes. It is convenient and fast. A casserole dish comes with a steamed bun, or you can add handmade noodles, or Instant noodles cost an additional [-] cents, and the diners were very satisfied.
"You guys share a big table, and I'll go to the kitchen to serve the food."
Shen Jiaze and the others put together two long small dining tables in the restaurant into one big table.
Induction cookers are not yet popular these days, so only gas stoves can be used.
A group of people put the gas tanks aside and placed hot pot pots on the gas stove. All kinds of vegetables, meat slices, ham, and tofu skins were all cut and washed in advance.
He Mingliang's mother, Hao Cailing, refused to eat: "I had this hot pot dish in the afternoon, and I just wanted to go back and make some soup. After I finished eating, I went back by myself."
Zhao Xueyan also ate it. She was already a glutton, so when she saw that all the guests liked it, she cooked one for herself: "I'll take Jiejie back to do her homework."
Li Yutong's maid, Chen Xiaoying, stayed behind and said, "I'll do the math for today. Leave me alone and you can eat."
She is older, so casseroles are delicious, but she finds them too oily and greasy. She doesn’t understand why young people like them so much.
Shen Jiaze and the others sat down by themselves. At the same table were Li Yutong, her sister Li Yuhan, Shen Jiaze, He Mingliang and He Zixuan.
"Wow, it's really delicious. It's not much worse than Sichuan Hot Pot Restaurant." He Mingliang often eats there. After comparing it, he felt that Li Yutong's version tastes better.
However, Li Yutong felt that he had eaten too much and was tired of eating it. He ate what she cooked just to taste it fresh, so he thought it was delicious?
"Shen Jiaze, what do you think?" This was the person she wanted to take advice from first.
"Ordinary hot pot will taste a little bitter and astringent when it is cooked to the end, but yours doesn't. It's pretty... good." Shen Jiaze was a little confused: "You really have a talent for cooking, whether it's making steamed buns or grilling meat. Rice and hot pot ingredients are all pretty good."
This opinion is very pertinent.
He Mingliang was immersed in eating: "Li Yutong, if you have money, you can still go to a hot pot restaurant. The business will be booming."
He has only eaten hot pot once. Anyway, he thinks: "If you open a hot pot restaurant in the future, the price should not be too high. If ordinary people can afford it, I guarantee that I will want to eat it every few days."
"You all think it tastes good, so I'm relieved."
The reviews were all very high. Li Yutong felt relieved and couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the fried skewers shop has been completely abandoned and a hotpot restaurant will be opened instead?
To be honest, hot pot restaurants can make more money than selling fried skewers or barbecue bibimbap, because the audience is wider.
However, the gangsters will come to press for debts. If they are messed up like this not long after the business has just opened, the business will definitely not be able to continue.
Then, she was still in school, and without her keeping an eye on her, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to make enough money on her own.
Shen Jiaze watched Li Yutong's thoughtful look for a long time, and he knew what she was thinking.
Everyone was having a lively hot pot meal. When it was time to separate, Shen Jiaze deliberately stayed until the end: "I have money. I have whatever you want."
Li Yutong was stunned for a moment. She and he didn't want to get involved in money matters.
"It's okay. I'll do it myself. I'll be down-to-earth and do it slowly."
Shen Jiaze thought for a while: "I'm not giving you charity. I can't spend it all anyway. I put the money in the credit union and keep it. You can treat me as a shareholder. I provide the house and labor, you provide the technology, and we are done. If you can’t do it by dividing accounts, I think it’s a small business and I won’t lose much, so I can just gain experience.”
Li Yutong glanced at him in surprise, thinking that he was focused on studying and did not understand the fireworks of the world. Unexpectedly, he also had his own opinions when it came to business.
However, the main reason is because he is rich enough, so he treats this as a game.
If you lose once, you can start over from the beginning.
"I will consider it, thank you." Shen Jiaze didn't want to refuse so harshly, but Shen Jiaze was just kind-hearted.
In the next month, Li Yutong kept an eye on the store's business and saw how customers reacted to the casserole dishes, while thinking about what kind of hot pot restaurant to open.
In later generations, hot pot restaurant business already had various types, with flavors including spicy, three-fresh, tomato, etc., and the business model was that of a small hot pot, where the ingredients were placed on the flowing water table, and each Customers all have a separate small pot, and what they want to eat is taken from the plate on the water table.
There are also self-service small hot pots where the ingredients are concentrated in a large freezer. Each guest has the same small pot. You can get what you want from the freezer.
After the ingredients are laid out, you can choose them yourself and send them to the cooking table. After the chef cooks them, you can take them away and eat them directly.
Of course, the most popular ones are similar to Sichuan Hot Pot Restaurant, where a few people sit around a big pot and eat lively.
Li Yutong thought about what kind of restaurant she would open. After thinking about it, she realized that induction cookers were not popular enough and only gas stoves could be used. It seemed that she could only open a hot pot restaurant with only one gas stove for each table. .
Li Yutong has figured out how to open a store.
On the other side, Shen Jiaze had nothing to do and had already asked people to find out everything about Laowagou Village.
"Not even a local snake." Shen Jiaze thought that Hei Laosan's background was so powerful, but in the end, he was just a person who could only show his authority over ordinary people.
"This group of people totals more than 30 people." After the visitor told Shen Jiaze about the situation, he added: "Hei Laosan's granddaughter is studying at the Municipal Technical College, majoring in textiles. I heard that she is now working Lu Wensheng of the textile factory wants to ask his granddaughter to work as a clerk in the factory office."
The little girl in the village can work in the office of a state-owned factory with a lot of carrots and pits, receive a pension after retirement, get benefits during the holidays, and have no worries about food and clothing. At least Hei Lao San feels quite satisfied. With good luck, he follows Whichever little leader takes a fancy to her, she will be a proper leader's wife from now on.
