Chapter 106 Cooking Knife Skill
Zhao Zitong really kept his word. From the second day, he asked Uncle Dong to negotiate with them on how to transform the inn according to Zhou Qinchuan's ideas.
As for why he didn't go into the battle himself, it's worth mentioning that as a scholar, you just need to give guidance from a high-level perspective. If you do something specifically, you will naturally have to do it for others.
After a day of work, everyone decided on the general plan and started construction.
This is actually quite simple. It’s nothing more than changing into a brand new plain sheet, equiping each room with a toilet, and then placing an incense burner. When guests come, they light incense, giving them a very high-end feeling.
Then, taking advantage of the big selling of bread, we re-installed and opened a brand new business. As expected, more customers who bought bread stayed here, and the inn business reached a small step.
Zhao Zitong was very happy, so naturally there was no reason to break his promise. He made a decision a few days later. Any extra income would still be settled with Zhou Qinchuan and others according to the principle of opening seven or three.
Now the housing price is set at 10, which is Zhou Qinchuan and others.
Because the entire inn has no neighbors, it covers a huge area, so there are naturally many rooms, with a total of twenty rooms.
These days, eight rooms can be opened every day, which means that Zhou Qinchuan and others can also earn twenty-four cents of the daily income from the rooms.
Although it is not very eye-catching, its advantage lies in stability. If the business is better, there will naturally be more shares.
But once the business is good, it is naturally not as easy as before. Not to mention anything else, changing the sheets every day is not an easy job, let alone kneading dough and toasting bread.
For a time, my homework for reading and practicing calligraphy was somewhat delayed. Zhou Qinchuan was able to take time to practice writing, but Xiao Ji couldn't do it. He didn't like reading and writing, but he had an excuse and had not touched his pen for many days.
When Su Yourong saw it, she felt that it was not a big deal, and she could not delay the future of the two of them just to earn some money.
Especially Xiao Ji, if Kai Meng is not good at studying, it will be difficult for him to improve in the future. He specially talked to Zhou Qinchuan to discuss what to do.
In fact, there are not many customers yet, and the food provided is very simple. In addition to the bread that needs to be bought with the villagers by staying in the hotel, the guests also provide pancakes, porridge and pickled cabbage. It is not difficult to make these things, nor does it take time to stop.
After thinking about it, Zhou Qinchuan felt that the main thing that was delaying their time was the work of changing the sheets every day after the increase in the number of guests staying in the hotel.
If this matter is left in later generations, it will not be even a problem. The eight-room bed sheets and the washing machine will be finished, which is extremely simple.
But at this time, the Ming Dynasty was all about hand washing, which would be considered a big problem.
To be honest, Zhou Qinchuan was also a little tired of washing the quilts these days. After discussing with Su Yourong, he felt that they and Zhao Zitong would just pay according to the share ratio and hire a Huanniang to the inn to specialize in cleaning the quilts.
The amount of eight to ten rooms is enough for one Huanniang. If the business is better, find another Huanniang.
At present, the wages of a day are ten to twenty cents for workers in the Ming Dynasty, and Zhou Qinchuan and others only pay six cents for a day. They can afford it and don’t have to work hard for themselves.
Zhou Qinchuan paid money not because he was willing to be a sucker, but as a friend, this kind of thing was originally a matter of being on them, and it was completely up to the boss to pay for it, so it was a bit unreasonable to hire a separate employee.
And they are all doing it themselves, they are tired and wasteful of time, and they are not happy to say it.
