Chapter 750: Chisi
The sun is setting, and it is time to hold the lanterns in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Lingchuan lit the candlesticks and oil lamps in the room, making the room brighter.
The inn they were staying in was one of the best in the town. It was a top-notch VIP room with bright and clean windows. After the previous guests left, Wu Fu ordered the cleaning woman to clean it carefully, and even the dust in the corners of the walls was completely removed.
Li Haitang opened the window, and there was a small balcony outside. On the balcony, there was a straw round table and two rattan chairs, surrounded by several pots of flowers and plants.
Sitting on the rattan chair, you can see the residences of common people in front of you.
It was just after dinner, and it was just getting dark. Many old ladies moved small benches, sat on big trees to enjoy the cool, and chatted with people who had a bad temper.
She obviously begged for mercy just now, but the savage husband didn't buy it, he hugged her into his arms and ate the tofu. If the bean buns weren't sleepy, he wouldn't have let her go so quickly.
"Husband, I said that business is serious, and I want to make a living in food."
There are many restaurants and restaurants around Songhe Academy, but they are all cooked in Kyoto. The dishes are sweet, and a little sugar is added to stir-fry potatoes, which makes many students from other places not used to it.
Some people rent houses nearby and ask someone to clean and cook, and a large number of people need to solve the problem of eating outside.
Ruan Pingzhi once complained about the food near Songhe Academy. The taste was too sweet or too bland. As a native of Kyoto, he was not used to it.
Scholars are not short of money, and they must have spending power. If they can open a gourmet shop, they will have a lot of money, so it goes without saying.
"The wine shop has two floors, but the space is not very big. If it is a small restaurant, the restaurant is more than enough."
Relatively speaking, the scale of the restaurant is not as good as that of the restaurant, the food cannot be sold at the price, and the money earned is less.
What kind of dishes are the main dishes, and finding a person who is proficient in cooking is difficult.
Li Haitang just stated his point of view in general, but Xiao Lingchuan immediately grasped the key points, drew inferences from one instance, and listed a bunch of details.
Seeing that the savage husband was interested, Li Haitang didn't hide it. She hadn't thought about the chef, but she had already thought about the model of the food shop, so she just made fast food.
The so-called difficult to adjust to the taste of everyone, it is obviously impossible to make a single dish well. There are many students in Songhe Academy, so she changed the wine store into a fast food restaurant, with cabinets around it and trays, making it a buffet style. Of course, the price is definitely not expensive, and there are vegetables and meat, with meat and vegetables. , and some seasonal melon and fruit snacks, the price will be an ordinary meal
average value.
When you are done with the back end, you don’t have to wait after you arrive, just find what you like, and after you finish eating, the trays will be collected and cleaned up.
On the second floor, she plans to cook special hot pot and barbecue, taking a slightly higher-end route.
"I think those scholars are unwilling to come out because they have more time to read. We can improve it and create a delivery service to deliver meals to the students of Songhe Academy, so that they don't have to come out when it's meal time. , Go directly to the house and wait for dinner.
This is a bit similar to modern food delivery, which is convenient and fast. The store can provide quarterly cards, monthly cards, and weekly cards, etc., and the money will be collected first for the capital turnover in the store.
Although these were just preliminary thoughts, like talking on paper, Xiao Lingchuan was still shocked. He pondered over the lady's so many whimsical ideas carefully, and felt that there was a lot to be done.
The surrounding academies are not only the Songhe Academy, but also several small academies. That's it, there are thousands of people.
The service of ordering food and delivery can be done, and a certain fee is charged, and those people don't eat in the shop, don't queue up and don't need to take up space. It's great!
It's just that if it's conceived in this way, the location of Ji Qiu's wine shop is a bit small, it's best to buy the surrounding facades together, otherwise the scholars who come to eat the buffet will have no place to sit.
"Husband, Ji Qiu's shop costs ten thousand taels of silver, and the surrounding shops are almost at the same price, and they may not be able to rent us!"
If you can't afford it, you can rent it. I'm afraid that the business is too good and I don't want to rent it. After all, no one is a fool.
"Next to Ji Qiu's wine store is a snack shop, and on the other side is a grocery store."
Xiao Lingchuan's memory is good. Three years ago, he went to the capital to take life and death escorts, and went to Ji Qiu's wine shop. He saw that the two businesses around him were not doing well.
There are many shops around the grocery store, so that the one next door has been greatly affected, and the pastry shop sells greasy peach cakes and the like. Scholars don't like this taste, and few people buy it.
If we can expand the facade and open up the left and right two, the site will be large enough to build a restaurant.
As for money, don't worry at all, he has a way.
"Could it be that you are hiding private money behind my back?"
Li Haitang had her hands on her hips, her husband was poor and white, and all the wealth was in her hands.
When she was away from home, she brought some banknotes with her, and the rest of the house were precious antique porcelain and jewelry, which could not be exchanged for money immediately.
If a person has no money, he has no sense of security and no confidence, so Li Haitang puts his purse on the savage husband, saving money to buy something, and he manages the rest of his savings.
"Miss, where do you want to go?"
Xiao Lingchuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he said he didn't worry about the money because he had old friends in Kyoto, and he could go there to borrow some temporarily.
"Old friend?"
Li Haitang had never heard of it, and always felt that the savage husband did not have many friends, but wherever he went, he had old friends, and the friendship was not bad, and there was a feeling that his friends were all over the world.
"Did you get to know each other through life and death darts?"
Li Haitang grabbed Xiao Lingchuan's clothes nervously. She heard about the experience of walking life and death darts several times, and without exception, she broke out in a cold sweat.
The family is not short of money, even if it is short of money, she will not agree with the savage husband to risk his life.
"No, it was the former owner."
Xiao Lingchuan shook his head, it wasn't a very deep friendship, he didn't mention it, but the other party was a righteous person.
"He runs a boat in the south, and he specializes in transporting some gadgets from the open sea. He is very popular with the noble ladies in Kyoto."
Every time I go to sea, I go with my head up. This is a life-and-death business, even crueler than life and death darts.
A few ships go out to sea every year, and those who can come back are only the lucky ones. Too many people are buried in the sea, and they end up with no bones left.
But if you go there, you can get rich, so many people choose to take the risk in the end. If they can return safely, they will be prosperous. If they can't, it can only mean that they don't have that kind of wealth. Many sailors have to write a suicide note to explain their funeral before leaving. After all, very few sailors can come back.
