I Open a Restaurant in another World

Chapter 40

Chapter 40 Fall

Song Yanqing got up early and counted the things to be taken from home to the restaurant. "There are not many tripe and casserole left."

"Take all the rest to the restaurant," Zhang Beiting said. "I'll go to a meat shop a little further away this morning to see if there are any for sale."

With the current rate at which the restaurant consumes tripe and casserole, the meat shop they usually go to will definitely not be able to supply them.

However, Yunyang City is so big that if one shop can't supply them, they can find another one. Anyway, few people want these things before they buy them for hot pot.

The two took all the tripe and casserole, as well as the hot pot base and bean paste for the day, and then went to buy vegetables.

Since selling hot pot and maocai, there are more vegetables to use. Zhang Beiting and Song Yanqing no longer go to the He family's vegetable stall. Instead, they go to the He family to pick them the night before when Uncle He and He Feng bring the vegetables back from outside the city. The next morning, He Hai will deliver them directly to the restaurant with a wheelbarrow.

They wanted a lot, and the He family was happy to deliver, which made them feel much more relaxed.

So now they only bought meat in the market.

"What do you want today?" The butcher greeted them with a smile while they were still at the door of the butcher shop.

The smile on his face was slightly more enthusiastic than before.

Zhang Beiting glanced at the pork on the stall and asked, "When will there be beef?"

The butcher chuckled and pointed to the bamboo basket behind the stall with his chin.

Zhang Beiting went around the back of the stall and saw that in addition to the bamboo basket on the ground, there was also a piece of beef weighing about four or five pounds hanging on the wall, and the basket contained two tripes and a bunch of yellow throat.

The butcher said, "I guess you should have sold all these, so I got some for you from others."

"How much?" Zhang Beiting asked.

The butcher had said before that if his tripe sold well, he would raise the price a little. This was from someone else, so it was impossible to sell at the same price as last time.

"Consider the beef as something I brought back for you. It's the same as what I sold before, 45 wen per jin," the butcher said with a smile, "You can pay whatever you want for the tripe and the veins."

"One hundred and fifty wen for the tripe and veins, do you think that's OK?" Zhang Beiting asked.

Fifty wen more than before, and one less set of butter.

"Okay!" the butcher agreed happily.

The large livestock such as pigs, cattle and sheep collected by their butchers outside the city had to be slaughtered outside the city before they could be transported into Yunyang City.

There were only a few slaughterhouses, so most of the butchers knew each other.

Everyone couldn't sell their tripe, and the veins were often thrown away. He only spent fifty wen on this basket, and the beef was actually two wen per jin cheaper than what he sold himself.

He made a profit of one hundred and ten wen in one transaction.

Although it was not a lot, he had to transport meat from outside the city every day, and bringing these things was just a side job.
