Chapter 12 – Eat Chicken At The Beginning

Chapter 12 Eat chicken at the beginning

“It’s okay, we are in the midnight snack business, it’s still early.”

Zhou Anan, who was handling the crayfish, comforted the other party by the way, but there was a bit of anxiety in his eyes.

MMP’s is completely different from what he expected.

He said he was not in a hurry, but seeing that the time displayed on the electronic watch he bought for ten yuan just now was already half past eight, how could Zhou Anan not be in a hurry.

From six o’clock, since the first big customer came in, only three people came to eat barbecue, the combined income was only 40 yuan, and the net profit was only 28 yuan. This made Zhou Anan, who had prepared ten tables, feel a A touch of sadness.

Could it be that he misestimated the situation?

Rao has experienced more than ten years of social career, Zhou An’an can’t help but doubt his intuition.

After all, his understanding of making money from barbecue stalls is mainly two or three years after graduation, and it is six or seven years away from now. At that time, he was working as a temporary worker in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. He heard the experience of a barbecue stall owner who bought a house in two years and changed to a Land Rover in three years. He knew the huge profits.

But looking at it now, huge profits are huge profits, but there are no customers.

“Oh.”

After hearing Zhou An’an’s words, Wang Rong thought it was right, so he continued to handle the crayfish with peace of mind, but the movements of his hands were much quicker.

Perhaps due to the luck of the reborn, Zhou Anan’s expected silence did not appear. Just after nine o’clock, a large wave of customers who were tired from shopping at the night market came one after another.

Even at ten o’clock, the business of the barbecue stall reached its first peak. There were five tables of people sitting at the same time, and there were fifteen or six people on the count. It was a good start.

Many of the stall owners in the night market are foreigners, and they all have the habit of eating late at night. They were already very tired when they closed the stalls, and they subconsciously looked for the nearest shop to eat, and the barbecue stalls that lingered for half the night were naturally delicious. became the first choice.

In the past, there were no supper stalls nearby, but now that there are such close-by options, who would go to the pedestrian street to find food? What’s more, the spicy crayfish is the preference of many foreigners.

“Everyone, don’t be in a hurry, go and sit down first, I’ll be fine soon.”

Turning the skewers while greeting the guests, Zhou Anan couldn’t care less.

Just like now, even though he was talking so much, there were still several customers waiting for packing, and Zhou Anan, who was sweating profusely, was really tired and happy. But Wang Rong, who worked as a waiter on the first day, couldn’t keep his feet on the ground, was in a hurry, and his work efficiency was so low that it was unbearable.

Even, the idea of hiring people to expand the business flashed through his mind, but it was extinguished in an instant.

Young man, don’t be proud.

We were busy until half past eleven, when most of the guests left, Zhou Anan and Wang Rong could finally take a rest.

Although the passenger flow was not very large tonight, Zhou Anan, who was in the barbecue business for the first time, was a little uncomfortable. The most important thing was that this young man was a little weak in physical strength.

If you change to the shape of an uncle more than ten years later, with a fat body and a fat face, then it will really die.

Looks like it’s time for a wave of perseverance.

“I’m exhausted.”

Wiping the sweat off his face, Wang Rong let out a sigh of relief, but with a different kind of lightness on his face.

Although he was just serving dishes and clearing the table, the work intensity was not high at all, especially for the first time doing this kind of thing. Seeing the booming business at the barbecue stall, Wang Rong felt that he would not be unemployed for the time being, and his monthly salary of 2,000 yuan was guaranteed.

“So cowardly, did you watch a small movie at night, and it’s not worth it.”

Smiling and patted Wang Rong on the shoulder, Zhou Anan, who was pretending to be calm, made a joke.

Seeing that there were only a few vegetables left on the shelf for the second time, Zhou Anan felt a sense of satisfaction.

There is no income statistics yet, but Zhou Anan, who has been collecting money, can slightly estimate a figure, which can definitely be regarded as the largest sum of money he has earned in his life.

And it can be predicted that the business will definitely not be just one day today.

From the feedback of those customers, we know that the guests at several tables have added meals several times.

“Fart, I don’t watch that kind of movie.”

Retorted, Wang Rong obediently leaned on the back of the chair, breathing slowly.

“It’s late, let’s pack up quickly and go to bed early.”

There are still some garbage and things that need to be tidied up. Zhou Anan ignored his sore hands and got up to tidy up.

Originally, 11:30 was far from closing time for supper, but the vegetables prepared during the day were almost sold out, and there was no place to buy vegetables at night, so Zhou Anan naturally had to close the business early.

If the living habits of the previous life were followed, Zhou Anan would definitely be resting in bed at this point. Although he is a little tired now, his spirit is still very excited.

It can only be said that the energy in this youth is definitely strong enough.

“Aunt Chen, I’m really sorry for your inconvenience.”

After cleaning up the stall, Zhou Anan walked to the cake shop gratefully, thanked Chen Yuehua who had been dragged so late by him, and brought a plate of warm crayfish by the way.

Because the electricity for the barbecue stand is received from the cake shop, Chen Yuehua has been open until now, which is also a favor.

“What kind words are you talking about? Thanks to you, I sold more drinks today than I sold in a month.”

Looking at the diligent young man in front of him, Chen Yuehua’s eyes were full of admiration.

The lazy girl in Bibi’s family is really worth throwing away.

No, the second child must have one, go home and chatter with Lao Hu.

“It’s so late, how do you go back?”

“My husband is already on his way, how about you?”

“We live not far away, so let’s go first, and you should go back early.”

“Okay, be careful when you go back.”

“Ah.”

Stretching, Zhou Anan opened his misty eyes, looked at the strange room, and couldn’t help patting his confused mind.

A moment later, Zhou Anan, who regained consciousness, remembered that she was boarding at Wang Rong’s house last night, and fell asleep as soon as she came back.

“Where’s the money?”

After searching for a while, Zhou Anan found a pile of change wrapped in red plastic bags on the old-fashioned bedside table, and counted yesterday’s harvest with great interest.

Sleep until you wake up naturally, and you will have money when you wake up. It is definitely a happy time.

“685.2 yuan, after deducting the cost of 705.8 yuan, the net loss is 20.6 yuan.”

After counting the money, Zhou Anan quickly calculated the profit and couldn’t help laughing.

He thought about making money from barbecue stalls, but he didn’t expect to make so much money.

Although there is still a loss of 20.6 yuan on the book, this is the figure after deducting a lot of hardware costs.

Based on the cost of vegetables alone, the profit has reached more than 400 yuan, and this is still the case that there are more than 30 catties of expensive crayfish that have not been sold.

You know, this is still 2005, the year 2005 when the housing price in Lizhou city center was still at 1,000 yuan per square meter, and the average monthly salary of civil servants has not yet exceeded 2,000 yuan.

This is a monthly income of more than 10,000
