Chapter 177 New Shop Opening
Although it is a new shop opening, Pomegranate does not plan to make a grand show, it is just a small shop business. The smell of wine does not worry about the deep alley, and the business will be good no matter what.
Upon getting up early in the morning, Li Jizu and Li Rongyu worked together to hang the signboard under the eaves, and Li's specialty store opened quietly.
But the shop that had been closed for many days suddenly started to move in the past few days. People in the nearby shops had been watching in private for a few days, but they didn't ask more questions due to unfamiliarity.
Now that they finally saw the hanging plaque, they all gathered around to inquire about it.
As the saying goes, "people who work together are enemies." The shops on Lingshui Street in Luoshui City are almost all small shops that are integrated into a family shop. The family's livelihood is also in the food business such as large bowls of tea, pancakes, steamed buns, and noodles. , because it is close to the market, the morning market, lunch market and evening market are all bustling, and the business is pretty good. The other businesses are the grain stores, groceries and cloth stores, which are suitable for daily life.
Now that another shop is about to be opened, the neighbors should be more concerned about whether this newly opened shop will interfere with their own business, in case it robs their own business.
So, many people breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this sign clearly.
But I am also curious about it, a specialty shop? What is this for sale? This is the first time I see this kind of shop on the street.
No longer worried, but more curious, many people came to the shop.
Quietly and without even setting off any firecrackers, customers came into the open shop within a short time. There were quite a few people, and they flooded into the shop and instantly filled it up. People passing by outside looked at this procession, and in the spirit of To join in the fun, they all looked in or raised their feet to look in.
As soon as they hung up the sign and turned around before taking a breath, Li Jizu and Li Rongyu hurriedly greeted the guests.
As the shopkeeper and clerk of this shop in the future, they will naturally have to play the leading role. Shiliu and the others will be there to help.
Even if the business people are not good at writing, they are basically literate. As soon as they entered the store, they saw the price list posted in the middle, and some couldn't help but read it out.
Everyone was surprised.
"Pork floss? Pork jerky? Salted egg yolk? What are these? I've never heard of them!"
"A pound of pork floss costs two hundred yuan? Am I right? Pork is not Only fifteen cents per catty? Is this really pork? How much meat can you buy for three hundred per catty? ”
“Also, look at these salted egg yolks costing three cents each, and eggs only cost a penny each.”
“.”
Everyone also. Without waiting for Li Jizu and the others to greet him, he started commenting on the price list.
The person looking at his feet behind him suddenly let out a sigh, "The crispy pork floss and salted egg yolk sold by Xinglongzhai, is it the same pork floss and salted egg yolk?"
Li Jizu finally found an opportunity to insert it into his mouth, He quickly picked up the topic and said, "That's right! It's this pork floss and salted egg yolk! The owner of Xinglongzhai bought it from the same owner as ours, as well as Liu Dongjia of Jixiang Inn, who also bought it from the same owner. Our boss signed the paperwork and bought it! Look, this is the meat floss sold in our store."
As he spoke, he introduced the things on display on the shelf——
Everyone was doing business in the city, and they all knew and heard of these two companies. When they heard that the owner of this new shop had done business with both of them, they secretly nodded. Then he followed Li Jizu's introduction and took a closer look at the shelves. He saw that the so-called meat floss was so thin and velvety, like cotton wool, which was amazing. There were also dried meat strips, which were thinner than fingers. It's dry, like bacon, but it seems to be covered in chili noodles. When you smell it from a distance, you can smell a fresh aroma that hits your nose, making people salivate.
But the price was too expensive, which was a bit prohibitive. At this time, Ding Fuguang's person, shopkeeper Na Xie, took the lead and bought a pound of dried meat.
This seems to open a hole.
Those who have eaten Xinglongzhai dim sum did not hesitate any longer and immediately weighed a pound of meat floss and bought a few salted egg yolks, planning to take them back to try.
Having never tasted it, I smelled the strong dryness of the meat, so I gritted my teeth and bought one or two to try. I said it was one or two, but it was really not many. This person felt pain in his body when he paid. I thought that if I could only buy these few sticks for the price of two kilograms of meat, who wouldn’t feel heartbroken?
But he turned his back to the counter, took one and bit it into his mouth, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
Others who were watching urged him to see how it was going. He shook his head and chewed the dried meat in his mouth carefully. However, there was no ink in his stomach and he couldn't come up with any words, just two words. Word: delicious! If there are two more, that’s it: it’s so delicious!
The others shook their heads when they heard his useless comment, but seeing how intoxicated he was, they couldn't help but grit their teeth and went up to buy one or two to try.
At this time, all the neighbors were doing business, and most of them were reluctant to buy more. After all, at such a price, they were all one or two. For a time, Li Jizu and Li Rongyu were too busy. Li Rongzong, Li Jizhong and the others Also come to help with the weighing.
After this busy period, the neighbors all left after buying. After going out, they mentioned it and attracted many customers.
The morning market is a time when families go out to buy groceries and people come out to have breakfast. The excitement is indispensable for attracting people to join in the fun.
I saw that this shop sold all kinds of novelty things that I had never tasted before, and I heard from others that the dried meat was delicious and the floss was also very delicious, so I bought one or two of them and went back to try them.
Pomegranate saw that no one asked about salted egg yolk sauce and salted egg yolk, so she couldn’t help but drag the women into the shop to sell them enthusiastically. These women all went out to buy vegetables, and they were always worried about which vegetables to buy every day. I am worried about what to cook.
When I heard that Pomegranate was selling this salted egg yolk sauce, it could be used to stew tofu, make porridge, steamed buns, cook whatever you wanted. I was skeptical, but with the attitude of giving it a try, I bought a couple of them first.
There are so many people in the city, and news spreads quickly. By noon, many people came to the shop specifically to ask about dried meat and floss. Apparently they heard what others said. of.
There are also repeat customers who bought the dried meat that morning and thought it was so delicious that they couldn’t help but order a few. The more they ate, the more they couldn’t stop eating.
Of course, not to mention Ding Fuguang, Wang Mian and Shopkeeper Huang, all of whom had people come to support them and take care of the business.
In this way, at the end of the day, although Li's specialty store is not very popular, the business is not bad.
In the evening, when the wooden boards were put up and closed, everyone watched Li Jizu calculating and calculating accounts.
For a moment, Li Jizu raised his head from the abacus, met the expectant eyes of everyone, and said with a smile: "Today, I sold a total of sixteen coins, seven coins and forty coins!"
Mr. Li The fathers roared, obviously shocked by this number.
But after a rough calculation by Shiliu, half of the business here is taken care of by old acquaintances, and the remaining half is just a reason to join in the fun because it just opened today.
But with this momentum, as long as half of the customers are repeat customers in the future, excluding costs and other expenses, we can make a net profit of four to five hundred yuan a day, which will be more than ten taels a month. This business can be done!
She couldn't help but laugh too, and asked Li Rongyu and Li Jizu to count the goods. There were still more meat floss and salted egg yolks, dried meat and salted egg yolk sauce. If they lasted a little longer, they would have to be delivered quickly. Just come, otherwise we will have to stop selling.
They couldn't stay long. Early the next morning, after the shop opened, they drove out of the city and headed home. Only Li Jizu and Li Ronyu were left in the shop.
