Chapter 374: Sour Plum Soup
When the two left in the end, Chen Nian poured them a large pot of sour plum soup. The most in the restaurant was a variety of containers. Chen Nian told them to take these two back and use them, and when they finished drinking, they would come over and get them.
After seeing off the two girls, Chen Nian cleaned up the kitchen. There was still some sour plum soup left. Chen Nian planned to put it for everyone to taste it tomorrow.
...
The next day, after the breakfast stall was collected, Feng Honghong began to complain that it was already autumn recently, but the temperature was still so hot.
"I think there is no autumn in Chengdu at all. After summer, we will go directly to winter. Let's watch it. After a few rains, we should wear cotton jackets."
He Hai said in agreement while kneading each other: "Yes, the weather here is really hot. There were many months ago when I went out every afternoon, I had to walk along the wall every afternoon. At least the wall could block part of the sun. It would be even better if I could hit a big tree. But every time I walked out of the shadow of the big tree, I had to make a lot of determination."
"Yes, going out in summer is like running out of poison." Xie Yu obviously had the same understanding.
But at this moment, Chen Nian took out the sour plum soup from the refrigeration in the refrigerator beside him: "Since it's hot, drink some sour plum soup. This was what I cooked last night, and you all try it. I plan to make another pot later, and I will take it out and sell it at noon."
"Sour plum soup?" Xie Yu's eyes lit up as soon as he saw the sour plum soup. "I said, what was the pile of things soaked in the big basin over there just now? I thought it was someone else who put it here for the time being, but I didn't expect it was really the boss, you made it yourself."
When Xie Yu came in the morning, he saw a lot of strange things like plums and Chinese medicine in a large iron basin in the corner of the kitchen.
"Yes, this is the ingredients I want to make sour plum soup at noon." Chen Nian said as he took a disposable paper cup and poured the sour plum soup into the cup for everyone.
"Son, how much do you plan to sell this sour plum soup?" Feng Honghong asked.
Chen Nian had already thought about the pricing of sour plum soup.
"I plan to divide it into two types. One is to sell it by cup, the other is to sell it by thorn, seven yuan per cup, twenty yuan per thorn, and three cups per thorn can be poured by one thorn."
This price was determined by Chen Nian on the way back last night.
When Chen Nian planned to make breakfast, he bought two buckets. Originally, one was intended to use soy milk and the other to use to store tofu brain. However, Chen Nian stopped selling soy milk in the store, and one bucket was idle.
Yesterday, Chen Nian washed the bucket and took it to add sour plum soup.
The capacity of this bucket is 40 liters, the container for selling sour plum soup in Honghong Hotel is 750 ml, and the cup is about 250 ml.
In other words, even if you don’t fill it to the fullest, you can still hold more than 30 liters of sour plum soup, which is more than 40 pounds, and you can count as much as 100 cups.
If you consider that everyone in the store orders sour plum soup, it is very likely that it will not be enough, but after all, the output is only so much. If you do more, then it will be left.
At worst, customers who come late later will buy drinks. Anyway, the drinks are cheaper than sour plum soup.
But Chen Nian thinks that judging from the portraits of the guests who come to Honghong Restaurant for dinner, it is definitely no problem to make so many people every day and sell them out.
Gu Feng
The cost of such a bucket of sour plum soup aged is about 200 yuan. Even if the electricity bill or gas bill is added, it will not exceed 300 yuan. If it is sold all, it can be sold for at least 800 yuan, which is a sure profit.
Feng Honghong didn't think that the price was anything, and even thought that seven yuan per cup of sour plum soup was a little expensive. After all, they were just an ordinary restaurant. If they were in a big restaurant, it would be normal to sell it for seven or eight yuan, not to mention selling it for ten yuan.
But then Chen Nian mentioned the cost of this pot of sour plum soup, and Feng Honghong couldn't help but be amazed: "It's so expensive. I thought it would be enough to boil such a bucket of more than ten or twenty yuan. Why does it cost more than two hundred?"
"The main reason is that the medicinal materials inside are more expensive, and those medicinal materials are usually sold at two." Chen Nian explained again.
But after hearing this, Xie Yu and He Hai felt that the price was a bit cheaper. After all, when they were young, they would always take their girlfriends to the restaurant. No matter how much they bought a glass of juice in the store, it would cost at least twenty-seven or eight yuan. There were thirty or forty yuan.
In comparison, Chen Nian sells a cup of seven yuan here, and the price of one or twenty yuan is quite conscientious. At least the sour plum soup uses real ingredients.
After Chen Nian boiled sour plum soup in a large pot, he took out two blank signs, one of which wrote a cup of sour plum soup for seven yuan, and the other one wrote a sour plum soup for twenty yuan.
Finally hung next to those dishes.
Then I went to print seven or eight pieces of paper, which also said:
Our store has newly launched iced sour plum soup, made by pure Chinese medicine manually, for a cup of seven yuan and a pill of twenty yuan.
After printing, I pasted the paper in a conspicuous position on the wall inside the store, and then posted another piece to the door.
After the production, Chen Nian returned to the kitchen and continued to prepare the ingredients.
In this way, it was around 11:30 noon that customers began to arrive at the store one after another. Because Chen Nian posted advertisements everywhere, guests could see the new products of Honghong Hotel as soon as they came in.
When it was 11:45, Xu Qiu and Luo Ye came. They were the seventh guests of today. They originally planned to go to have a hot pot at noon, but when they passed by Honghong Hotel, they saw the sour plum soup on the door.
The weather was very hot, and when I saw the three words "Sour Plum Soup" Luoye couldn't walk.
"Why don't we eat here today and go to have hot pot in the evening?" Luo Ye said.
Xu Qiu looked at the newly posted A4 paper on the door and said with a smile: "I think you want to drink sour plum soup, right?"
"How is it? We'll eat here at noon. Anyway, I haven't eaten at Honghong Restaurant for a while. It seems that some new dishes we haven't eaten yet have appeared."
"Okay, if you want to eat here, then let's eat here. Let's go to the hot pot in the evening. And I also want to taste the sour plum soup cooked by the boss himself." After Xu Qiu said that, he pulled Luo Ye and entered the Honghong Hotel.
I walked to the counter and looked at the menu.
"Auntie, come with a portion of Mapo tofu, a portion of garlic, a portion of macadamia, a portion of diced chicken, two bowls of rice and two more cups... and another sour plum soup." After Xu Qiu said that, he looked at Luo Ye beside him: "Do you have anything else to eat?"
