“Son, you’re right. Father was overthinking it.” Zhang Shu quickly asked Zhang
Cong to teach him how to read.
Although it was difficult, he had to learn it.
Ye Muyu did not know what the father and son were talking about.
After she finished eating, she took her usual afternoon nap.
The fish with pickled cabbages in the Fragrance Restaurant had already been removed from the menu. It was not because the taste was bad, but because there were no more pickled cabbages. It was not good to offend the customers, so they could only wait for the ingredients to arrive before adding them to the menu.
“You haven’t developed this pickled cabbage yet?” The shopkeeper of the Fragrance Restaurant asked anxiously.
“No, Shopkeeper. Look at the dozens of jars here. We made them ourselves, but the taste is always a little wrong.”
“If we were in a small place, we can use it directly, but if we sell this fish with pickled cabbages to customers here, I’m afraid we’ll lose out.” The chef also felt a headache coming on.
In fact, the pickled cabbages made by the chef were very close to the simplest pickled cabbages made by Ye Muyu. Basically, they could be eaten in one or two days.
However, such pickled cabbages were inferior.
Fragrance Restaurant was the best restaurant in the county. The dishes were also of high quality, so naturally, the taste was also the best. Of course, the price was also the most expensive.
If the taste of the dishes changed, it would not only be a matter of earning less money, but it would also negatively affect their reputation.
The Xie family had already said that they could not pass off inferior goods as good ones.
However, the shopkeeper saw that every customer would order the fish with pickled cabbages. There were even passing merchants who came specially to eat this dish. In the end, they could not take out pickled cabbages for two days in a row. They could only put down the business that was delivered to their doorstep.
To the Shopkeeper Xie, this was something he could not tolerate.
Therefore, when he knew that the pickled cabbages needed to be bought, he secretly asked the chef to make them secretly.
In the end, he managed to make it, but it did not taste good.
“Sigh, this person who sells recipes has been controlling our Fragrance Restaurant from the beginning, right?” Shopkeeper Xie was worried again, but he thought about how the fish with pickled cabbages were inferior now, but there were still no high -grade pickled cabbages for sale. It could be seen that the people who really talked business with the Third Young Master were not in a hurry to have their business snatched away.
It was obvious that they had expected this situation to happen.
If the other party was not too confident, then they were very smart.
“Shopkeeper, should I still make it?” The chef asked.
Shopkeeper Xie sighed. “Yes, why not? What if you succeed?”
“But don’t use what you make to cook. I’ll go and urge the family that sold the recipe. If they don’t provide me with pickled cabbages, how much business will
Shopkeeper Xie’s heartache was not mentioned for the time being.
These days, Xie Yu had also ordered his subordinates to tidy up the shops. Not only in the county but also in Lin County and the capital city.
Nanchang County was a little far from the capital city. Although the Xie family was powerful in Nanchang County, most of their assets were in the nearby counties.
There were only two shops in the capital city and a village outside the capital city.
Ever since listening to Chu Heng’s words, Xie Yu felt that he really needed to have his own career.
Hence, his subordinates had been busy cleaning up the shop and renovating it.
At the same time, on the busiest street in the county town, in the backyard of the pastry shop, an oven had already been prepared.
Xie Yu and Chu Heng’s contract had already been signed. It was a 30-70 split. Chu Heng needed to provide some good pastry ideas from time to time.
As for the 200 taels, he could take up 10% of it.
Because Xie Yu planned to open seven pastry shops in one go, and because none of the shops under his hands could be rebranded, he naturally would not touch those shops that were doing well.
In this way, he could only look for his grandfather to ask if there were any shops that had poor business and could not continue to operate..
