NOVEL NEXT Chapter 163 Selling Coffee
Three days later, Princess Le'an finally embarked on her journey back to Beidu.
Before leaving, she specifically told Mu Zhiyuan: "Brother Mu, I have to take Shopkeeper Gao back to the palace. The chefs in the palace can't cook as good as him. From now on, I will leave the Juding Tower to you to help me." Take care of it.”
Mu Zhiyuan had no choice but to take over this hot potato alone. Now, he had to send away the princess, and the most important thing was how to convince Shui Xi to take over the Juding Tower.
Early the next morning, Mu Zhiyuan came to Liuxiang Snacks as agreed with Ma Xi, and together with Lu Da, helped sell hand-ground coffee at the dining window.
With Mu Zhiyuan's blessing, the sales of hand-ground coffee and coffee beans are much higher than before.
Mao Xi had to sigh that this "beautiful man" effect also applied in ancient times.
After selling coffee for half a day, Luda handed the stall to Mu Zhiyuan: "Brother Mu, I'll leave this to you first. I have to help Ah Shu prepare the skewers for the evening barbecue."
Mu Zhiyuan waited until no one bought coffee, then called Mao Xi to the coffee room.
"Ah Shu, Princess Le'an suggested selling Juding Real Estate that day. How have you considered it?"
Mao Xi was thoughtful, not because of the price of the restaurant, but because she wanted the restaurant to have its own brand.
"Brother Mu, I hope that the restaurant I open in the future will be an extension of 'Liuxiang Snacks' instead of me directly taking over the 'Juding Tower'."
"This is not simple. You can just change the plaque. The new restaurant can have another name."
Seeing that Mu Zhiyuan was still persistent, Mao Xi stopped arguing with him and said instead: "I don't think I have the ability to run a big restaurant independently. How about you take over the business yourself? Doesn't Juding Tower have a temporary shopkeeper now? Well, why don't you just let the shopkeeper manage it, and you can collect and check the accounts occasionally, wouldn't it be easy?"
Having said that, but...actually Mu Zhiyuan didn't want to care.
Since Mao Xi suggested this, Mu Zhiyuan had no choice but to give up.
Mu Zhiyuan didn't want to open a restaurant. He just wanted to stay with Mao Xi in her shop, just like now, helping to sell coffee and fruits with Lu Da.
"Then I will continue to sell coffee here, and you must not drive me away."
Mao Xi saw that Mu Zhiyuan's coffee brewing skills were no worse than Lu Da's, and his joining actually increased sales.
She wanted Mu Zhiyuan to sell coffee in a new shop in Kaitang County.
"Brother Mu, at the fruit cake shop in Kaitang County, I have newly renovated a coffee window. I think you can sell it there, how about it?"
How could Mu Zhiyuan want to go to Kaitang County: "Why not Lu Da?"
"Brother Lu Da already has many regular customers here. You are a new face. If you go to Kaitang County and sell the coffee there, I will open a branch of Liuxiang Snacks in Kaitang County in the future. More confident.”
It turned out that Mao Xi had a plan, and Mu Zhiyuan finally agreed, but he said strongly: "I will only go there for a week. I will come back when the chef there becomes familiar with the method of making hand-brewed coffee."
"Okay, it's just for a week. I'll go over and help with the drinking in the evening. After all, I'm worried that ordinary people won't be able to accept the new drink."
In the afternoon, with two sets of coffee brewing tools and a large bag of coffee beans, Mao Xi and Mu Zhiyuan went to the Liu Family Fruit Cake Workshop in Kaitang County.
Mrs. Chen called Ah Tian to the coffee dispensing port and showed her how to brew coffee.
The shop also prepared a lot of free biscuits and fruits, cut into small portions, paired with coffee, and distributed to passers-by for free tasting.
Mao Xi brewed a whole pot of milk coffee and poured it into a small bamboo cup.
When passersby pass by, offer them a free drink.
"Little lady, please try it. This is a coffee drink. Drinking it will refresh you."
The young lady was in her prime, so she didn't stop just for this cup of coffee.
Mu Zhiyuan, who was standing aside with free biscuits, attracted her attention instead.
"Hey, this guy is so handsome! Shopkeeper, how do you sell your drinks?"
Seeing that there was a guest, Mao Xi immediately brought a small cup of coffee to the young lady's mouth and said: "My dear lady, you can try it first. If you think it tastes good, this young man will personally brew a cup of coffee for you." of."
"Really?" The young lady's eyes were filled with stars, her eyes rested on Mu Zhiyuan and she couldn't take them back.
Ma Xi nodded sharply.
Although the young lady stared at Brother Mu, which made her very uncomfortable.
But who said "the customer is God"?
The first customer who buys coffee should always be treated well.
Outside the eating window of the fruit cake shop, there are three tables and chairs for resting and waiting.
The young lady was sitting on the chair, watching Mu Zhiyuan grinding coffee beans, and from time to time she would joke: "Brother, you are so strong~ Are all the muscles in your arms made from grinding beans?"
Mao Xi took the opportunity to grab some fruits from the shop and began to sell them: "Little lady, coffee must be paired with fruits to taste. Do you like any of these?"
The woman took a fancy to the lotus cake and said, "This fruit is so beautiful. Give me two."
Mao Xi brought the lotus cake, and Mu Zhiyuan's coffee had been brewed. He held the coffee in his hand and brought it to the young lady.
The young lady took the coffee and touched Mu Zhiyuan's palm dishonestly with her little hand: "Brother, can you teach me how to grind coffee? I see you still sell coffee beans here."
This little move was noticed by Ma Xi immediately.
But he couldn't let his brother Mu be squandered in public.
"Little lady, the coffee beans I have here can only be sold after spending at least 100 Wen! There is a discount today that will give you a % discount."
After saying that, she took out various fruits and asked the young lady to choose.
Out of dignity, she scraped together 100 Wen for fruit and bought a bag of coffee beans.
"Shopkeeper, can you let me teach me how to make coffee now?"
Mao Xi brought a set of brewing tools to the young lady and showed it in front of her: "Madam, please be happy. This little brother has to brew coffee for other people. I'll teach you how to grind the beans."
After that, the young lady spent 20 yuan to buy another set of coffee brewing tools.
As for the take-out window, there was already a long line of people lined up, attracted by the aroma of freshly ground coffee, waiting to buy it.
The young lady who was the first to buy coffee saw that there were so many customers, so she couldn't bear to pester Mao Xi to ask Mu Zhiyuan to make coffee in public.
After learning from Mao Xi, she took a large bag of fruits and coffee beans, waved her handkerchief at Mu Zhiyuan at the window and said, "Brother, I will come here to buy your coffee tomorrow."
Mao Xi suddenly became jealous.
No, it seems that I have to accompany Brother Mu here for the next week to sell coffee.
The people in Kaitang County are so "too enthusiastic"!
