Chapter 473： One "milk" is the barrier, and no one can open it!

Chapter 473: One "milk" is the barrier, and no one can open it!

That means reducing the amount of rice in the set meal, and shrinking the size of the steamed buns.

When students order food, ask them if they can add another spoonful of rice or a small steamed bun if necessary.

If it is not needed, it will not be given.

In this way, I dare not say that waste will be completely avoided, but it will alleviate the waste problem to a certain extent.

Everyone was even more happy when they heard Li Laosan talk about the meal tickets.

Today Zhao Yuru is in charge of collecting the money. She was so happy that she could not wait to clap her hands and praised: "This is a good method, but it saves me from counting copper coins. Even now, I am still counting one, two, three in my head!"

Everyone felt relieved after solving the two big problems and went about their business one after another.

Noon has passed, but the ingredients for dinner still need to be prepared, especially some dumplings need to be made for the students to have a change of taste.

But there is no need to prepare too much, because school ends in the middle of the afternoon. In the two hours of free time, the students will definitely have to go out to play. I am afraid that not many people are willing to come back for dinner.

It's a pity that everyone still underestimated the charm of the new canteen. After school, the students actually brought books and gathered together in the small garden, chatting and joking while talking about their studies. It was very lively.

Since there was no room outside, some people entered the dining hall and found a quiet corner to study and wait for their meal. Maybe they wanted to finish eating early and then go back to school.

Li Laosan saw him and quickly boiled tea, but there were only two tea sets in the canteen.

If you have fewer teapots, you can make more trips and fill them more often, but you cannot share teacups.

Helping, he could only take a clean porcelain bowl to recharge.

The students were very polite and thanked them one after another.

First of all, tea is free, and secondly, drinking tea, admiring flowers, and blowing in the spring breeze make you feel more comfortable.

Jiayin felt sleepy in the afternoon and took a nap in Sun's second sister-in-law's room. She was woken up by the sound of voices outside, so she lay down at the window to watch the excitement.

As she looked at it, a new idea came to her mind.

In the past, the best sellers in and around the university included food and drinks.

We sell fruit drinks with ice in summer, hot milk tea in winter, and ordinary tea on weekdays.

With so many students in the academy, just one cup per person per day would make a profit of two cents, which is more than a dozen taels a month.

These dozen taels may not be too much, but they are definitely a lot.

You should know that for a strong laborer, if he works hard for a month, his wages will only be about one tael of silver.

What's more, this is a small business backed by a big tree in the cafeteria. The cost is low. Even if the business stops at any time, there will be no big loss.

Furthermore, students are used to gathering here, sitting and having a drink, which can also help the cafeteria to stabilize its popularity.

Thinking like this, she hugged her grandma and shouted to go back to the small courtyard.

Mrs. Li originally stayed aside when her granddaughter woke up and made no noise. Now she saw that the kitchen was getting busy and she couldn't help, so she straightened her granddaughter's clothes and called Shuiling and Aunt He. left.

Wenjuan was cooking dinner with her maid Xiaoyue. When she saw her grandma and sister-in-law coming back, she asked about the business in the canteen.

She was also very happy when she heard that business was booming.

Xiaoyue was lively and even jumped and clapped her hands, shouting: "Let those people on the street take a good look! Earlier, they said that our family was not afraid of flashing their tongues when they told lies. How could it be possible that as soon as the canteen opened, it took away their business? Now, They were afraid that their intestines would be destroyed!

“It’s time to have dinner soon, and the gate of the academy is also open, but not many students are coming out. They are crying. Children, there are behind you!”

Mrs. Li frowned when she heard this, glanced at her grandson's daughter-in-law, and said, "We can just talk about this at home. Don't say it when we go out. It will easily attract people's hatred."

Wenjuan also scolded Xiaoyue, "You talk nonsense, you don't know what to say, and you don't even cook!"

Xiaoyue stuck out her tongue and ran away quickly. Jiayin still liked Wenjuan's sister-in-law very much. He didn't want her to be embarrassed, so he stepped forward and grabbed her hand, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I have come up with a good business, can I give it to you to make a fortune?"

Wenjuan smiled and bent down to hug her sister-in-law. She didn't take it too seriously and said, "Okay, my sister-in-law will buy you a solid gold bracelet when she gets rich!"

Jiayin covered her face, everyone knew that she liked solid gold bracelets...

“Then my sister-in-law will come up with me at night to think about delicious food. When I speak, my sister-in-law will do it!”

Jiayin hugged her sister-in-law's neck, causing Wenjuan to giggle.

Soon, Shui Ling was sent out to buy things.

Actually, what good news needs is either something new or novel, or something complicated and numerous.

Mammy He was afraid that Shuiling wouldn't be able to buy it alone, so she followed her.

As soon as the two of them went out, Tao Hongying and Jia Huan rushed back from the city.

The business of the restaurant is getting better and better, and Jia Huan is cautious, fearing that someone will do something secretly.

So, when the uncle is not in the restaurant on weekdays, he will stay overnight.

Even though Luo An is so close to the new capital, he only comes back once every three to five days.

Tao Hongying was thinking about her mother-in-law and daughter. After cooking the private dishes, she helped a little and came back with Jiahuan.

Jiayin first kissed my mother, and then ran over, calling her second brother happily.

Jia Huan hugged her sister and walked around the yard a few times. After playing for a while, Jiayin jumped off the ground, then took her brother's hand and walked towards Wenjuan, "Sister-in-law, I will return my second brother to you."

Wenjuan blushed deeply and turned around to get into the stove. Jiayin kept giggling and was tickled by her brother who was also blushing.

Soon, dinner was served and the family of five finished eating. Tao Hongying and Jia Huan were thinking about the canteen and rushed to help.

At this time, Grandma He and Shuiling also bought things.

Saltpeter, brown sugar, medium-quality black tea, honey, two pounds of red beans, a small basket of wild strawberries, and a small bucket of milk.

The previous ones are not difficult to buy. Only this milk was bought by Grandma He and Shui Ling when they went to a small village outside the town.

This Zhuangzi's milk was sent to the city for the nobles to wash their faces and bathe. When they heard that Grandma He and Shuiling wanted to buy it, they squeezed out a bucket of it.

They wanted to give money, but they didn’t ask for it yet. They just thought they had children at home and no milk to drink!

Jiayin hugged grandma’s neck and gave grandma a difficult task, “Grandma, guard the door for me and my sister-in-law. We are going to study the recipe in secret and give you something good to drink later.”

“Okay, let’s go, grandma is sitting at the door.” Mrs. Li patted her granddaughter, her eyes full of doting, “As the saying goes, one milk can shut the door, and no one can open it!”

“Hahaha!” Jiayin was so amused that she burst into laughter. She hugged her grandma and kissed her for a long time before dragging her sister-in-law into the kitchen.

Summer is about to enter. In fact, Jiayin is more optimistic about fruit drinks with ice than milk tea.

If other people are still worried, after all, there are ice cellars in the city, but the ice sold is too expensive.

 But the Li family is not afraid. You must know that the cyclamen have a whole boat of seafood brought back from the south, and almost half of the boat is filled with ice. The level of luxury will never make their peers jealous.

It’s because the Li family can make their own ice!

Previously, only Li Zhensheng and a young steward who had signed a death contract knew the recipe. Later, Jiayi and Liu Yang helped the young steward when he was too busy and learned the recipe.

Now if I tell my sister-in-law Wenjuan, the good news is not a big deal...
