That means reducing the amount of rice in the set meal and shrinking the size of the steamed buns.
When students order food, ask more. If necessary, they can add another spoonful of rice or a small steamed bun.
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.
Zhao Yuru was in charge of collecting the money today. She was so happy that she could not wait to clap her hands and praised: "This is a good method, but it saves me counting copper coins. Even now, I am still counting one, two, three in my head!"
Everyone solved the two big ones. They all felt relieved and went about their business one after another.
Noon has passed, but the ingredients for dinner still need to be prepared, especially making some dumplings for the students to change their 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 go out to play. I am afraid that not many people are willing to come back for dinner.
Unfortunately, everyone still underestimated the charm of the new cafeteria. 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.
There was no room outside, so some people entered the dining hall, looking for a quiet corner to read and wait for their meal. Maybe they wanted to finish eating early and then go back to school.
Li Laosan saw it and quickly boiled tea, but there were only two sets of 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.
Helpless, he could only take a clean porcelain bowl to recharge.
The students were very polite and thanked them one after another.
Firstly, tea is free, and secondly, drinking tea, admiring flowers and blowing the spring breeze makes 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 watched, a new idea came to her mind.
In the past, the best sellers in and around the university included food and drinks.
They sell fruit drinks with ice in the summer, hot milk tea in the 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 ten taels are not 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, and even if it closes down at any time, there will be no big loss.
Moreover, 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 canteen business.
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 are afraid that their intestines will be ruined!
"It's time to have dinner soon, and the gate of the academy is also open, and not many students come out. They are crying, children, behind them!" 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's easy to make people hate you."
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. She didn't want her to be embarrassed, so she stepped forward and took her hand, smiling and said: "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 over. She hugged her sister-in-law, but 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 sister-in-law will come with me to think about delicious food at night. If I talk, 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.
In fact, what good news requires is not something novel, but something complicated and numerous.
Aunt He was afraid that Shuiling wouldn't be able to buy it alone, so she followed her.
As soon as the two went out, Tao Hongying and Jia Huan rushed back from the city.
The restaurant business is getting better and better, and Jia Huan has a cautious temper, fearing that someone will do something secretly.
Therefore, on weekdays, when the uncle is not in the restaurant, 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, then ran over and called her second brother happily.
Jia Huan hugged her sister and walked around the yard several 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 made a fuss . Blushing, she turned around and got into the stove. Jiayin couldn't stop 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 Shui Ling also bought things back.
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 types were not difficult to buy, but this milk was only bought by Grandma He and Shui Ling when they went to a small village outside the town.
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.
The two 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 her grandma's neck and gave her a difficult task, "Grandma, help me and my sister-in-law guard the door. We are going to study the recipe in secret and give you something good to drink later."
"Okay, go ahead, grandma is sitting here At the door." Old Mrs. Li patted her granddaughter, her eyes full of doting, "As the saying goes, one milk is the barrier, and no one can open it!"
"Hahaha!" Jiayin was so amused that she laughed and hugged her grandma. After a good kiss, I dragged my 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 whole boat of cyclamen is brought back from the south, and almost half of the boat is filled with ice. The level of luxury will never make the 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 about 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...
