Chapter 100 Getting Rich Through Tricks
Some diners booked a whole day's worth of food by themselves, and even secretly asked if they could add a few more slots for the day, saying that they were all family and friends and it wouldn't be good to separate them.
The waiter was very tactful; he neither agreed nor refused, only saying that he needed to ask the boss first before going home.
Lin Chang'er is a person who is extremely principled, mainly because she follows the strategy of scarcity marketing.
Of course, we couldn't make an exception, but since they were our bread and butter, we couldn't refuse them outright. So we asked the waiter to reply that we could help split the 10 servings of sashimi into multiple servings.
Especially if there are elderly people and children, it is not advisable to eat too much, but the number of people should not exceed 15.
They upheld their principles while also saving face for the diners.
Sure enough, the diner said without hesitation that they had thought of everything.
Lin Chang'er did a rough calculation again. It was only the sixth day of the month, and there were still 24 days until the end of the month. If there were 10 portions every day, that would be 240 portions. If each portion was 30 taels, that would be 7200 taels.
The ingredients cost 200 taels at most, which means that next month, she could get at least 2100 taels just from the profits of sashimi.
In addition, these diners naturally can't just eat sashimi or raw fish, which inadvertently boosts the sales of other dishes in the restaurant.
Therefore, the dividend she will receive next month will definitely not be less than 2100 taels.
Lin Chang'er bit her finger and suddenly felt a little unreal. It wasn't that she hadn't seen a lot of money before, but when she arrived here, she was penniless. The two taels of silver she had earned was from the Lin family.
Indeed, knowledge changes destiny.
Sashimi and raw fish slices were in high demand and pre-orders were pouring in. The golden eel was also sold out, and in the end, a diner from the south bought it for 500 taels.
This price is already quite outrageous, considering that Pei Sihai originally gave it a market price of 5 taels, which is equivalent to a hundredfold increase.
But these things are rare. If someone knows what they're doing, keeping them in a glass jar is absolutely amazing.
Therefore, Pei Sihai was all smiles, and the diner who took the photo was also grinning from ear to ear.
Lin Chang'er's double-headed abalone also made an appearance at the auction, but it was not auctioned.
Many diners inquired about the price, but neither party dared to set a price.
The smaller ones, however, were all bought up for 30 taels each. The price could have been raised further, but since Lin Chang'er only sells abalone meat, the customers had to have Sihai Restaurant process them, so they were given a slight discount.
The diner was a straightforward person, and both parties were happy.
After the auction, Pei Sihai invited Lin Chang'er to have dinner at the Sihai Restaurant before leaving.
Lin Chang'er was worried about her family and politely declined, "Uncle Pei, please don't be so polite with me. Starting tomorrow, I'll be hanging around you every day, so please don't bother me then."
Pei Sihai laughed heartily. He now looked at Lin Chang'er as if she were a god of wealth. "How could that be? We'll have to rely on Miss Lin to make us rich in the future!"
Lin Chang'er humbly replied, "Let's get rich together, let's get rich together."
Amidst the laughter and chatter, Pei Sihai didn't press the matter. "Then I'll have my servant drive you there in a carriage."
Lin Chang'er did not refuse. She was a little tired after being outside all day, and she still had to work in the evening!
She had made up her mind. She already had huge profits from the sashimi and raw fish business, and the abalone she had bought also helped her accumulate capital.
She'll definitely still sell duck eggs, crabs, and clams, and she'll also take watermelons and sesame seeds, but she can hire others to collect those for her.
Their family focuses on seafood, and they also need to start a sugar business. They definitely can't manage all the work just by themselves.
She needs to make a good overall plan. Of course, hiring people is also a matter of careful consideration, so she needs to go back early to discuss it with Gu's mother and Aunt Zhou.
It was only when Wu Qingfeng and Bai Shaoan saw them off onto the carriage that Lin Chang'er remembered her outfit.
Since she had already used it, she couldn't return it to him. Besides, she would need to have an outfit to wear in the future, so she let Little Goldfish and Xu Gun'er get in the car first, while she and Wu Qingfeng went to the side to talk.
Lin Chang'er was straightforward. "Third Brother, I can't afford these clothes and hair accessories right now. Can I pay you back in installments later?"
Wu Qingfeng narrowed his eyes, his expression froze for a moment, then he suddenly laughed, "You call me Third Brother and have given me a path to success, is that not worth as much as this outfit?"
Now it was Lin Chang'er's turn to be stunned. She gave him the Dragon Pearl for another reason: she knew the saying "possessing a treasure is a crime."
The item was in her hands; she couldn't protect it.
But giving it to him would maximize the benefits.
It was obvious that Wu Qingfeng meant well, which made Lin Chang'er a little embarrassed. However, she was not one to fuss over small things, so she said, "Then I won't stand on ceremony with Third Brother. I'll save the good stuff for you in the future."
Wu Qingfeng nodded. "It's getting late, let's go back soon."
Lin Chang'er nodded and nimbly climbed onto the carriage.
Before the people had even left Linhai Town, waiters from the Sihai Restaurant rode up on horseback and stopped the carriage.
After letting out a long "whoosh," Lin Chang'er parted the curtains of the carriage. "What is it? Uncle Pei, is there anything else you need to tell me?"
The worker shook his head. "Second Master, it's like this. The distinguished guests invited by the First Master today were very interested in Young Master Bai's beachcombing experience last night, and they wanted to ask if the Second Master could take them to experience it as well."
Lin Chang'er: "?" Experiencing life as a tycoon? But if she takes them along, will she still be able to work? Lin Chang'er hesitated.
The waiter added, "They also said they wouldn't let you bring it for nothing; each of you would get 10 taels as a service fee."
Ten taels per person, 10 people would be 100 taels, 20 people would be 200 taels.
This money is easy to make!
Just as Lin Chang'er was about to nod, the waiter added, "But they require that you help them make grilled fish after the meal."
Lin Chang'er: "..." It's just grilled fish, nothing to worry about.
She waved her hand and agreed, but added, "Grilled fish is no problem, but I can't provide accommodation. Also, to ensure the safety of our guests, you must follow my instructions at the beach. Otherwise, I will not be responsible if anything goes wrong."
Most importantly, to ensure that every guest has a good experience, a maximum of 5 guests can come per day.
Tonight is too rushed, it definitely won't work. The low tide time changes every day, so I can only give you the specific time tomorrow. Let your guests there travel in groups of 55 in advance.
Seeing that the job was done, the man quickly replied "Good" and turned to run back.
When Lin Chang'er returned to the Gu family home, the whole courtyard was filled with the aroma of meat.
Gu Xiaoman was sitting on the threshold. When she saw her, she was stunned for a moment. When she saw the goldfish, she realized that her third aunt had returned. She immediately called out "Auntie" and came to greet her.
But he didn't pounce on her like he usually does.
Lin Chang'er squatted down and tapped his nose, "Were you a good boy today?"
Gu Xiaoman nodded, "Xiaoman is a good girl, and so is her sister. When those ugly monsters came to scold Aunt, Auntie, and Grandma Zhou chased them away..."
