Chapter 257 The shop is hard to find
Chef Li and his daughter-in-law Ge are both members of Mrs. Zou. After taking over the Fugui Building, Mrs. Zou has controlled the Lu family. If the Lu family dares to act mischievously in Qingfu Town again, Mrs. Zou will take advantage of the Lu family's affairs. , overthrow Aunt Lu.
Mrs. Zou also said that if the Lu family or the Zou Yuzhen brothers and sisters take action against the Qin Gu Luotian family, they should leave the Lu family alone and let the Lu family commit suicide, while the Lu family should make good friends with those families, be a good person, and be good people. .
Im here to tell you this today. I want you to rest assured that from now on, Shopkeeper Zeng will no longer make the final decision in Fugui Building. Our wife has told us that Fugui Building will only do business properly and will not interfere in other matters.
Chef Li is slightly fat and has a simple and honest face. What he said is very believable. He added: "Madam is the wife of the principal wife. She never likes aunts and concubines."
Chef Li stopped talking after saying this, smiled and nodded at Third Grandpa, and went back to line up.
Chef Li is telling them that Mrs. Zou and Aunt Lu will not help the Lu family to harm them unless they deal with them.
This is to show good luck.
However, Gu Jinli and the others did not believe Chef Li. When Chef Li lined up to get the white tofu and seasonings, Luo's father still took out a booklet and asked Chef Li to take his fingerprints. If anything happens to the tofu and spices, Fuguilou will be responsible for it. Don't come looking for them.
Chef Li had no choice but to press his fingerprints as usual.
He is not shopkeeper Zeng, nor is he his daughter-in-law Ge Shi. He is just a cook who only wants to cook well and does not want to worry too much about other things.
One load of white tofu weighs one hundred and sixty kilograms, plus three kilograms of Wufu spices. The total is three to two hundred cents. Father Luo brought out the white tofu and spices to Chef Li.
When the waiter who came with heard the number, he complained: "Uncle Luo, why are you only given three jins of seasonings and spices? What we want is ten jins."
Before Father Luo could say anything, the guests queuing up next to him said, "Three kilograms are enough for you. I want ten kilograms more. These spices are in short supply. You asked for ten kilograms, what do we want? Just be content."
Now everyone in the town knows that spices are delicious for cooking, let alone food shops, they are ordinary people from all over the country. Even people from the next town come to buy them, and there is not enough to sell them.
The waiter retorted: "First come, first served, who asked you to queue up behind us?" They queued up at Fuguilou at dawn.
Chef Li stopped the waiter and said, "Stop talking, why are you so angry? You have to change your mind and pick things back quickly. The kitchen is still waiting for things to prepare for the luncheon dinner."
After hearing this, the waiter could only shut up and take the white tofu and seasonings back to Fugui Building with another waiter.
Chef Li took out three to two hundred yuan and handed it to Luo's father: "Brother Luo, keep it."
After Luo's father received the money, he said "walk slowly" and turned around to get tofu for other guests.
"Your two portions of fried five-spice tofu and four golden bean cakes are worth twenty-two cents in total." Uncle Tian wrapped the fried tofu and bean dregs cakes for the guest, handed them to the guest, and then took the money from the guest's hand. , put it in the box aside.
"Sister-in-law Yao, your five golden bean cakes, two kilograms of white tofu, and the half a kilogram of seasonings you ordered a few days ago are a total of two hundred and seventy-five cents." Luo Huiniang quickly put the things into Sister-in-law Yao's house. in the basket.
Sister-in-law Yao handed the money to Luo Huiniang: "It's like we got the spices. This family is used to cooking with spices. I haven't had to put them in these few days. The dishes are not delicious, and my Yinbao's food doesn't taste good anymore."
An old aunt next to me also said: "My grandchildren are also used to eating food with spices. If one meal is missing, they will not be happy to eat it."
Gu Jinli listened to the guests while helping, feeling very happy. Seasoning and spices were indeed a good business in the long run.
After working for half an hour, they finally finished the morning's work, and the white tofu and seasonings they brought had been sold out, leaving only four loads of bean dregs cakes that had not yet been sold. "Third uncle, if you have anything to do, go ahead and do your work. We can keep an eye on you here." Mrs. Chu was frying bean dregs cakes and said to the third uncle: "Ask Tiezhu to follow you. If something happens, he can also help. "
Mom, can I go too? Luo Huiniang likes the excitement and wants to follow Grandpa San and Xiaoyu to see the shops.
Mrs. Chu thought about Luo Huiniang's hard work recently, and nodded in agreement: "Go, remember to be careful, don't talk nonsense, and don't cause trouble for your third grandfather."
"Hey, I got it, mother." Luo Huiniang was very happy. She ran over and took Gu Jinli's hand and said, "Xiaoyu, I can go with you too."
Hmm~ Gu Jinli responded with a smile and whispered to Luo Huiniang.
"Uncle San, let's leave quickly. It'll be too late if we don't leave." Mrs. Chen couldn't wait for a long time. She had made special arrangements today just to see the shop.
"Okay, let's go." The third grandfather took the rag hanging on the cart, patted the dust on his body, and led Gu Jinli and the others towards Xuanhufang.
Gu Jinli and Luo Huiniang each carried two packages of bean dregs cakes and fried five-spice tofu in their hands.
After a while, they brought Xuanhufang.
Xuanhufang is filled with the aroma of medicine and the sound of coughs. Many people come to see a doctor because they contract coughs due to the change of seasons.
Medicine boy Maidong saw them coming and greeted them with a smile: "Mr. Gu, you are here. Doctor Du is not here and has gone to see a doctor. Master is brewing medicine in the backyard. If you have anything to do, just go to him."
Brother Ophiopogon japonicus, this is for you, share it. Gu Jinli put a bag of fried five-spice tofu and bean dregs cake on the counter, and followed the third grandfather and the others to the backyard of Xuanhufang.
In the backyard, old doctor Wu was sitting on a chair, drinking herbal tea while instructing Du Xusheng and Du Dingxiang: "The fire is too big, it needs to be simmered, and the medicinal materials need to be simmered slowly."
The fourth medicine pot in the second row can be filled with licorice.
Du Xusheng hurried over and put the soaked licorice into the medicine pot.
Old Doctor Wu, there are a lot of people suffering from coughs recently. Gu Jinli walked to the backyard porch and put a bag of fried five-spice tofu and bean dregs cake on the table.
"Yes, the season has changed, hot and cold alternate, and there are many people suffering from colds and coughs." Old Doctor Wu was already familiar with them, so he was not polite. He unwrapped the paper bag, picked up a bean dregs cake, and ate it. Then he called to the Du Xusheng brothers and sisters: "Come here to have something to eat and take a rest."
"Grandpa Wu, take it first. We will take it later. These two pots of medicine will be given to the patients later." Du Xusheng was young, but he was a sensible person and did not cause any trouble due to gluttony.
Its up to you. Old doctor Wu looked at the third grandfather and motioned for him to sit down: Brother Gu, why did you come here at this time today? But something happened?
Grandpa San said: I really need Brother Wus help with something.
The Third Grandpa told us his purpose.
"You want to buy a shop?" Old Doctor Wu took a bite of the bean dregs cake, chewed it, and said, "This is a bit difficult."
