Rebirth Ninety's Fat Wife Should Be Self-reliant

Chapter 149 Fried Melon Seeds

These days in Beijing, when he is not making medicinal meals, Lu Changqing often takes his mother and daughter around.

Beijing, as the capital city, brings together the best things in China. The Fushengji shop that Lu Changqing bought is a time-honored roasted seed shop, the most famous of which is their melon seeds. Zhou Huilan has been there several times, and every time she is...

There is a long queue, and if you go late, you may miss out.

Ever since Zhou Huilan praised this melon seeds once, Lu Changqing would buy them for her every time she went out.

The happiness of being remembered is far more satisfying than the deliciousness of the melon seeds themselves. Zhou Huilan grabbed a handful and put them on the table, giving Lu Changqing a sweet smile, "Thank you, Doctor Lu, for thinking of me."

Lu Changqing's face turned red at that time.

He hugged Yaoyao awkwardly, "No, you're welcome."

Seeing his shy look, Zhou Huilan couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.

Seeing that Lu Changqing was becoming more and more shy, he quickly cleared his throat, and while eating melon seeds, he chatted with Lu Changqing: "I used to think that selling roasted seeds and nuts was a good business, but seeing how Fu Sheng Ji has built the business, it is no less profitable than opening a restaurant."

Bar."

Lu Changqing nodded, "Fushengji is a time-honored brand with a history of hundreds of years."

Zhou Huilan suddenly clapped her hands, "I see that the fried melon seeds are delicious and the business is good. How about I go back and set up a small stall for frying melon seeds? What do you think?"

Before coming to Beijing, she had basically ended her relationship with Donghua Restaurant. Now she had nearly 300,000 in cash alone. She didn't have to worry about making a living, but one couldn't just stay idle like this.

When she was chatting with the big guys on Songbai Street, she would always fry some melon seeds and soybeans. The neighbors said they were more delicious than those sold in small shops outside. If she really made a living out of this little thing, there would be no need to cook it like this.

When I was a master chef, I had to add some ancient well water secretly.

The more Chow Huilan thought about it, the more believable she became, "There is no need to find any storefront in the beginning. I will do more cooking at home and use the original electric tricycle. Gradually, I can accumulate it. Maybe I can be like Fu Sheng Ji, and then I can set up a production line and mass production."

Production……"

The more Zhou Huilan talked, the more excited she became, as if she had already seen how everyone in the future would take her melon seeds and eat them while chatting.

Seeing Zhou Huilan like this, Lu Changqing nodded seriously, "That's okay. Looking at the people on the street, there are more people eating melon seeds than going to restaurants. You can try it. If it doesn't work and you still want to open a restaurant, I'll

Everyone supports you."

Although I said this, it didn't seem like I was trying to get Lu Changqing's support.

But when I heard him say that, I still felt very depressed.

So Zhou Huilan did not brush off Lu Changqing's kindness. She smiled lightly and thanked Lu Changqing for his kindness.

Everything is difficult at the beginning. Zhou Huilan originally baked some roasted seeds and nuts herself, but to satisfy her craving, she didn't make much.

But if you really want to start selling roasted seeds and nuts as a business, it's not that simple.

First of all, the amount is a problem. When frying one pound of melon seeds or frying 10 pounds of melon seeds, the fatigue level is not just multiplied by ten.

Zhou Huilan was thinking big. She ordered 50 kilograms of fresh melon seeds from the sunflower seed shop owner at the vegetable market she frequented. According to the boss woman's experience, there are still nine taels of fresh melon seeds left after frying a kilogram of melon seeds.

Zhou Huilan thought about how in the beginning, she used the big iron pot on the original firewood stove at home. One pot could only fry seven or eight kilograms. Adding in the coarse salt and aniseed and stirring it back and forth, it was really not an easy job.

Province.

If it weren't for the water from the ancient well, Zhou Huilan wouldn't have been able to fry all the fifty kilograms of fresh melon seeds in one day.

Because it was the first day of making a large batch, Zhou Huilan had fried all the melon seeds. It was already afternoon.

Thinking that there wasn't much time left to pick up Yaoyao, she didn't go far away. She pushed the original tricycle and stopped at the Drum Tower, using the same shouting force she used when selling soy milk.

It's not a good time to sell roasted seeds and nuts during the holidays.

But Zhou Huilan's melon seeds are freshly fried, with enough aniseed ingredients and strong fragrance. Although there are not many people passing by, one of the two people will always come over and ask. Among the two people who come over to ask,

There is almost one person who is willing to buy some back.

"I have fresh melon seeds. I only sell them for two yuan per pound. You can try them."

When someone stopped, Chow Huilan enthusiastically let the other person have a taste.

People these days are thin-skinned, and if they are willing to try it, if they think it tastes good, they will buy some of it back.

But in the middle of the afternoon, there were not many people on the street.

Zhou Huilan has been busy for more than an hour, and it is almost time to pick up the child. Not even half of it has been sold. Thinking about seeing the business of other time-honored brands in Beijing, she feels that she may have thought simply.

However, business must be done slowly, and Zhou Huilan is not in a hurry at this moment.

Seeing that it was almost time, she simply closed the stall, went back and sent the tricycle to Lu's house, packed it up, and planned to pick up Yaoyao.

Lu Changqing was also shocked when he saw her pushing a cart of melon seeds back, "Why is the business so bad?"

Zhou Huilan spread her hands helplessly, "It's really not that good, and it's not the New Year. There aren't many people eating, and maybe there are not many people on the street in the middle of the afternoon."

"Are you going to pick up Yaoyao now?" Lu Changqing helped with ideas, "How about we go to the entrance of the kindergarten and try selling?"

Zhou Huilan's eyes lit up when she heard this, but then she quickly shook her head, "It's better to say goodbye. What if Yaoyao feels embarrassed?"

Lu Changqing smiled, "Why do you feel embarrassed? You go pick up the child, and I will push the tricycle to sell it. But if I sell it well, Boss Zhou will have to pay me for the labor!"

"You?" Zhou Huilan couldn't help laughing and almost laughed, "Doctor Lu, can you read a scale?"

"Of course! I usually have to read the scale when weighing Chinese medicine." Lu Changqing was obviously unhappy, and Zhou Huilan looked down at him.

The two of them fought for a few more words, and when they saw that the time was almost up, Lu Changqing really planned to sell melon seeds. Zhou Huilan didn't stop him and told him the price.

He also told Lu Changqing that if he couldn't sell it, he would give it to people passing by to try it, which would be a disguised advertisement.

When we arrived at the entrance of the kindergarten, it was almost time to get off work. In addition to the parents queuing up, there were also many people on the street.

Zhou Huilan stood in the queue and immediately forgot about Lu Changqing's plan to sell melon seeds.

Originally, Lu Changqing was a scholar. If he was asked to sell melon seeds, it would be a waste of talent but not enough. Whether this gentle man could put down his dignity is another matter.

However, Zhou Huilan picked up Yaoyao and as soon as she crossed the road, she saw an old man carrying half a bag of melon seeds and pulling his grandson forward while eating them.
