Chapter 37: A Little Fortune Addict

"Quick, bring each of us a bowl of spiced offal, and drool when we smell it!" Fei Mao Zhong sat down and said.

Xu Jin personally served a bowl of haggis to each of the Fei brothers. Dabao and Mingyan are subordinates, so naturally they don't dare to sit with their masters, so they can only stand by and serve.

"Dabao, Mingyan, there is still an empty table here, you guys are also standing, sit here!" Xu Jin greeted.

Dabao and Mingyan were a little flattered, and looked at the two young masters hesitantly, Fei Maozhong waved his hand and said, "Go, I know that you are greedy!" ”

Dabao and Mingyan smiled, and each served a bowl of spiced haggis, others didn't know that Xu Jin was a scholar, but they knew, and Xu Xiaogongzi even valued the old man very much, how could they dare to bother Xu Jin to wait.

After eating two bowls of noodles, Yan Laofeng saw the Fei brothers next to him eating fragrant haggis, and while praising them, he couldn't help but muttered secretly: "It's just a radish, is there anything delicious?" The young master who dares to love a big family is usually used to eating wild game, and the radish feels fresh when he eats it! ”

Yan Laofu looked at the two family members again, and they were even more exaggerated, eating with a loud sound, and the juice splashed. At this time, Dabao's goods just picked up a large piece of lamb belly and put it in his mouth, and chewed it fragrantly.

Yan Laofu couldn't help but swallow his saliva, it turned out that it wasn't all radish, and there was such a big piece of meat!!

Yan Laofeng works as a coachman in a carriage and horse dealer, his salary is paid daily, he has no fixed income, he gets how much money he takes as many times as he goes, and he usually earns about 40 yuan a day, barely enough to support his family, and he is only willing to eat meat once a month.

"Boss, bring me a bowl of spiced haggis too!" A diner should have seen the Fei brothers and others eating deliciously, and couldn't help but order a bowl.

Yan Laofu's income today is not bad, he made four trips and earned sixty yuan, so he gritted his teeth and asked for a bowl of spiced haggis.

When a large bowl of fragrant spiced haggis was brought to him, Yan Laofu couldn't wait to take a piece of lamb brisket and put it in his mouth, and the rich fragrant juice suddenly spread along the taste buds, only to feel that the more he chewed, the more fragrant it became, and he almost swallowed his tongue into his stomach.

This may be an exaggeration, but for people who only eat meat once a month, it is a fairy-like treat, and those who have not been hungry will not experience this taste at all.

Unconsciously, the big bowl of radish haggis entered his stomach, Yan Laofu looked at the few pieces of radish and haggis left in the bowl, licked his lips hesitantly, and finally took out the bento he usually brings, poured the remaining half bowl of spiced haggis into it, and prepared to take it back to his mother-in-law and a few children to taste.

"Boss checkout!" Yan Laofeng took out twenty copper coins and slapped them on the table, and was about to leave.

Xu Jin hurriedly shouted: "Brother, wait a minute! ”

Yan Lao was stunned and said, "Did you give less money?" ”

Xu Jin smiled and said: "That's not true, I almost forgot to tell you that the new opening of our store has a discount, spend more than 20 yuan, and give a bowl of spiced haggis, only today!" ”

Yan Laofu was pleasantly surprised: "Really? Is there such a good thing? ”

Xu Jin directly filled a large bowl of haggis, Yan Laofeng smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, thanked him repeatedly, poured a bowl of haggis into the toilet, and left happily.

"Boss, bring me a bowl of spiced haggis too!"

"I also want a bowl of spiced haggis, well, and a bowl of noodle broth!"

The other diners in the store saw that others were eating well, and they were already a little moved, and when they heard that there was a buy-one-get-one-free discount, they immediately ordered a bowl of spiced haggis, and the consumption was less than 20 yuan, and they also ordered an extra bowl of noodle broth.

This is the psychology of consumers following the trend and taking advantage, for example, Boss Ma made a double eleven, and those choppers bought a bunch of unwanted things in the end in order to make up the order.

In an instant, Xie Xiaowan's girl was busy, mixing noodles, kneading noodles, ramen, and ...... I was sweating in the winter heat, but my face was full of smiles.

The coachmen and porters of the carriage and horse shop opposite obviously got the news from their peers, and they all came to the restaurant one after another to eat, on the one hand, for a taste, and on the other hand, naturally for a gift worth ten cents.

In addition, many villagers who went to the city to do New Year's goods passed by, and when they saw that the business of this shop was so prosperous, they also came to join in the fun, and for a time the small shop of dozens of square meters was crowded with people, and there was no place to sit.

The Fei brothers couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and finally simply hid in the house behind, while Dabao and Mingyan took the initiative to help, otherwise Xu Jin and his family would not be busy at all.

As a result, it only took about half an hour, and the spiced haggis in the big iron pot was sold out.

Xu Jin said loudly: "Everyone, today's five-spice haggis has been sold out, and the opening discount is over!" ”

"No, I've been lining up for a long time, so tell me no." Those who didn't buy it in the queue complained about it.

Xu Jin said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, my family's five-spice haggis process is complicated, just stewing will take a few hours, you can come again tomorrow, in order to apologize, those who eat noodle soup can add an egg for free." ”

"Oh, that's pretty much it!" The queue behind me heard that there were still discounts, and suddenly my mind was balanced.

As the crowd gradually dispersed, Xu Jin could finally take a free drink of saliva, the little girl was still working hard to meet each other, the little waist was twisted one by one, and her movements became more and more skillful.

Xu Jin saw that Dabao and Mingyan were helping, so he said, "Xiaowan, I'll go to the back to accompany the guests!" ”

Xie Xiaowan nodded and said, "Xianggong, go and accompany Fei Gongzi and them, I will take care of them here!" ”

Xu Jin turned around and returned to the house, secretly thinking in his heart, it seems that he has to recruit a helper, otherwise Xiao Wan will not be able to do it alone.

Xu Jin returned to the inner house, the Fei brothers were in his study, the two brothers were quiet, and they didn't know what they were doing, and they didn't even notice that Xu Jin walked in.

Xu Jin walked in and took a look, and suddenly he was stunned!

Recently, Xu Jin wrote Jin Daxia's "Shooting the Condor" silently according to his memories in his spare time, and by the way, he practiced Xiaokai calligraphy, and only wrote the first ten times.

At this time, the two brothers of the Fei family were obviously fascinated, and it was not until Xu Jin coughed lightly that the two came back to their senses.

"Brother Xu!" It is very rude for Fei Maoxian to put down the manuscript paper in his hand in embarrassment and read the manuscript that has not been made public by others without their permission.

Fei Maozhong also said a little embarrassedly: "We happened to see these casually placed manuscripts, and we couldn't help but look at them, but we didn't expect to be fascinated." ”

Xu Jin smiled and waved his hand: "It's okay, it's just a pastime, just watch it!" ”

The Fei brothers looked at each other and smiled, and Fei Maozhong said admiringly: "It turns out that Brother Xu is writing novels, and he writes them fascinatingly, and his pen power is comparable to that of the master Roben (Luo Guanzhong)!" ”

As the so-called Tang poetry and Song Ci, Ming and Qing novels, the rise of chapter hui novels in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the novel master Luo Guanzhong created the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in the four famous works at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, in addition to "The Legend of the Sui and Tang Dynasties", "The Romance of the Five Dynasties of the Remnant Tang Dynasty", "The Legend of the Three Sui Ping Demons", etc., is a great character, a god-level existence.

Xu Jin secretly sweated and said: "The people have been honored, how can they be compared with Mr. Luo, by the way, do you have something to do with me today?" ”

Fei Maoxian nodded and said, "My father asked you to sit at home today!" ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but secretly wonder, why is Fei Hong looking for me? Shaking his head, he said: "The store is open today, I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time, how about tomorrow?" ”

The Fei brothers have a strange expression, their father is a former cabinet scholar, and now although he has resigned from office, his influence in Shilin should not be underestimated, and other people may not be able to receive him by the old man, this kid is good, and it is more important to dare to make money.

"Okay, then I'll reply to my father!" Fei Maoxian said helplessly.

Fei Maozhong reluctantly picked up the pile of manuscripts and said: "Brother Xu, can you let me take these manuscripts back and read them, and I will return them to you immediately after reading them, and they will definitely not be leaked!" ”

Xu Jin nodded and said, "Yes, but it's not finished yet!" ”

Fei Maozhong said happily: "Haha, then Brother Xu hurry up and write, I'll come back to get the follow-up after I've finished reading!" ”

Xu Jin couldn't help but be speechless, this kid is becoming more and more unkind to himself, urging him to neither vote nor reward, how can this be reasonable! How can this be true?

The three chatted for a while, and the Fei brothers said goodbye and left, and Xu Jin also returned to the store to help.

At around 7 p.m., the spiced haggis shop closed, and the first day of trial operation ended with great success!

Although she was tired and had a sore back, Xie Xiaowan's little girl still served Xu Jin to take a bath as usual, and after finishing the housework, she lay on the bed and counted the copper coins.

"Xianggong, today we made 1,230 yuan, and we only earned more than one or two in half a day!" Xie Xiaowan raised her head happily and said.

Xu Jin patted Xie Xiaowan's pouting little buttocks, and said with a smile: "Little wealth fan, why are you happy, the cost hasn't been deducted yet!" ”

Today, I sold more than 100 bowls of noodle broth and more than 50 bowls of haggis, almost half of which were given away, so I didn't actually make much, and I am afraid I only made about 200 yuan after deducting the cost.

However, this is already a lot for Xie Xiaowan, earning two hundred wen in half a day, she couldn't think of it before, if she can earn two hundred wen every day, she can net six taels of silver in a month, so the little girl is already very satisfied, and she can laugh out loud in her dreams.

Indeed, earning 200 wen a day was already a relatively high income in the Ming Dynasty, and the monthly income of ordinary people in the city was only about two taels of silver.

Xie Xiaowan counted the copper coins again, then strung them with a rope and carefully put them in the money urn. Saving money is obviously a very happy thing, especially watching the money in the money urn slowly increase, the little girl is now a little happy.

"When you save enough money, go back to Xujia Village and buy back the sold ancestral field, Xiaowan works hard, you will definitely be able to do it!" Xie Xiaowan covered the plug of the money urn, and then put it back under the bed, thinking that it might not be safe, and went around with the money urn again.

Xu Jin couldn't help but shake his head amusedly, what a little money fan!
