At this time, Li Zhu came to report to Xu Qing, "the pastry tray we ordered is different from the expected shelf size. Master Cao, please go to the shop in person."
Xu Qing thought about it and called Ping'an and Luo fan to take a carriage to the east of the city.
Luo fan didn't dare to get into the carriage. He crowded with the coachman and sat in front of the carriage.
When the party arrived at the sub shop, Cao Laoliu and several carpenters were discussing with a pile of wood. When they saw Xu Qing coming in, they all said hello.
This is Luo fan's first time to come here. Although the shop has not been decorated, it is much more spacious and transparent than the one he rented. Even the walls are newly painted, and the floors on the ground are neat and smooth.
Cao Laoliu explained the reason to Xu Qing. Originally, they designed four shelves according to the size of the shop, two on the left and right against the wall, and two in the middle back to back, leaving two aisles on both sides.
However, when I came here, I found that the pastry tray was made according to the current size of Qingting square. If the shelves were made according to the size of the pastry tray, the shop would not be able to hold so many shelves.
Only two, either in the middle or on both sides.
In addition, there must be a counter and enough aisle for two people to stand side by side, so Xu Qing has to decide for himself whether to reduce the shelf or rebuild the pastry plate.
Xu Qing came to see the shop last time, but he only paid attention to the size and environment, but did not consider what kind of decoration the shop should use.
If you put it on the shelves, the area of the shop will take up a lot of space. There will not be many guests coming in at one time, and there will only be three members of the Luo Fan family in the small shop. They pack, collect money, load goods, and sometimes even have to speed up a batch of goods supply. Is it impossible to free up another person to manage the order?
Now it seems that the self-service shopping mode is not feasible for small shops, and Luo fan can't understand it. It's better to sell it according to the traditional mode.
The traditional pastry shop is similar to the steamed bun shop. The goods table is placed at the door, separating the customers and the sellers outside and inside the shop. On the one hand, the customers don't have to do it. On the other hand, it can avoid the customers swarming into the shop and making a mess.
At the beginning, Xu Qing designed qingtingfang self-service shopping because the area of qingtingfang was too large. If he used the traditional mode, he had to recruit several clerks to guard the counter.
Moreover, there are too many cakes in qingtingfang. I'm afraid they can't be put on the shelves just at the door.
However, the small shops only sell five to ten kinds of pastries. The traditional containers can be put down completely, and it's convenient for the clerks to pack and pack.
Thinking of this, Xu Qing said to everyone, "I didn't think about it well before. It's just that the shelves haven't been opened yet. We don't need to follow the style of qingtingfang. Let's make it a traditional container."
Luo fan didn't understand Xu Qing's meaning for a moment. When he heard that it was designed according to his original shop, he understood immediately.
Xu Qing: "make two long counters and put them together at the door. There is a small door on the far left for you to go in and out. Cakes are placed on the counter. This row can be placed at least one, two, three Eight pastry plates. When one plate is sold out, change to another. "
Xu Qing then said to Cao Laoliu, "brother in law, in front of the container, help me make a trademark model to embed it. Don't draw it."
Cao Laoliu: "this can only be done by a wood carving master. I know a master. I'll ask the price later."
Xu Qing nodded: "let's make two containers according to the size of the pastry plate. Don't seal the containers tightly. Make them close to the inside. You can put some sundries in the future. You can do it in push-pull or door type."
Several masters nodded clearly.
Cao Laoliu asked: "how to decorate the shop?"
Xu Qing thought about it and looked at Luo fan: "how do you want to arrange it?"
Luo fan pointed to himself: "me?" He scratched his head. "This Let me see. "
Xu Qing: "if you don't know, call your daughter-in-law. You two will use it in the future. It depends on how you get used to it."
Luo fan thought about it and said to Xu Qing, "wait a minute. I'll call my daughter-in-law."
Xu Qing asked the coachman to give him a ride. Luo fan didn't refuse. It's a little far from his shop. It's a waste of time for him to walk.
as like as two peas in the evening, Luo fan came with his wife and son. Luo fan's son was about ten years old. He looked exactly like his father. He was vigorous and honest.
Luo fan's wife is dressed simply, just like most simple and hardworking women. When she smiles, her eyes twinkle with a kind light. Although she is not handsome, she makes people feel very comfortable at first sight.
Luo fan's wife and son respectfully ask Xu Qing how to do it. At the beginning, they are still a little stiff. However, when they find that Xu Qing is a friendly boss, they gradually relax and discuss with Luo fan how to decorate the shop.
There are three bedrooms and a kitchen in the backyard. The yard is not big, but there is a well near the kitchen. The well water is clear, and there are bluestone slabs beside the wellhead. The bluestone slab road extends to every room, so you don't have to worry about soiling your shoes in rainy days.
Some of the courtyards will be covered with green slate, but there are two small vegetable gardens where there are no slate. There are also some green onion seedlings in the fields. Besides the vegetable fields, the roses and Camellia in the nearby fields are growing well."This room is too spacious. It must have cost a lot of money." Luo fan's daughter-in-law asked in a low voice.
"Sure, but I didn't ask how much. Our shop is the last one in the street. There is an open-air teahouse under the big tree next door. Usually many people go there to drink tea and listen to books. The boss said that we are in the spotlight of others, and there must be a lot of guests in the future. "
In fact, the open-air teahouse is opposite to the big tree. The shade of the tree is a treasure. The teahouse is close to the big tree, and there is no shortage of guests. So the next big piece of land is occupied. There is also a chaotic stall in the corner, and even the stall vendors like to gather here.
Especially in summer, when you are tired of going out, you can take a cool drink of tea under the tree. The tea is not expensive. Everyone likes this land.
Xu Qing wanted to see a shop in this street, but he didn't think it was too noisy. Moreover, vegetable dealers came and went, and the street was messy. Finally, he chose the teahouse.
As the saying goes, the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. When you know there is a pastry shop here, those who want to come will not dislike taking these steps.
Luo fan's family are really satisfied after seeing the house in the backyard. The studio is connected to the kitchen, and there is a well in front of the door. It's convenient to work in the future.
Xu Qing said that the other two rooms were a little small, but Luo fan didn't think they were small at all. They had warm Kang, tables, chairs and wardrobes, and they could put down the dressing table and desk.
