After Shopkeeper Qian and his family were settled, Lin Ruan came out of the private room and went downstairs to look at the diners in the lobby.

The response was enthusiastic.

Every day, we eat with great enthusiasm, and all the tables in the lobby are occupied.

Lin Fu came over with a bit of urgency and said in a low voice: "Miss, all the seats are already full. Many guests saw that there was no place to sit and couldn't wait to leave. What should we do?"

Losing a customer is a loss.

Lin Ruan smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter. As long as they want to eat, they will naturally come back later."

At the beginning, she also considered this problem. Hot pot is different from ordinary restaurants. A meal of hot pot takes at least half an hour. When business is good, it is inevitable that there will be no place to sit.

Before, she even thought about making some number plates so that customers waiting outside could queue up and dine by number, just like those popular restaurants in previous lives. But then she thought about it, and this method wouldn't work here.

At least it doesn't work now.

Because she is just a country girl with no power, and this is an ancient time with strict hierarchy.

Although there are no big shots in this county, among those who have spare money to go out to eat, who has a higher status than her? If she asked them to wait in line, these people would immediately turn against her and cause trouble.

She is here to seek wealth, not trouble.

So until she doesn't have enough ability, let's forget about the number plate.

Lin Ruan clearly understands her position and will never try to make everyone equal. Having traveled through the apocalypse, she understands that big fists are the last word.

After taking a look outside, Lin Ruan ordered again: "Uncle Fu, keep a closer look. If anyone is willing to wait, move a chair for them, serve some peanuts, melon seeds, tea, etc., and let them sit and wait. Anyway, it's okay.

Settle people in. Arrange them in order of first come, first served."

Lin Fu nodded and said, "Miss, I understand."

Lin Ruan was very assured of his ability to do things. After making arrangements, he stopped caring about it and went to the kitchen to see what was going on behind the scenes.

The kitchen is also a busy scene.

Because it was the first day of opening, everyone didn't have much experience, so they were a little confused.

However, the chef at a hot pot restaurant only does things like washing, cutting, and plating vegetables, and not much else.

Lin Yiping and his wife, one responsible for cooking the bottom of the pot and the other responsible for picking up the ingredients, worked together very well and tightly controlled the most essential part of the hot pot restaurant, preventing others from getting close. Not even Lin Yiping or the others could do it.

Don't let them get even half a step closer.

The husband and wife prepare the pot base and ingredients before handing them over to the waiter.

Lin Ruan is very satisfied with the rigorousness of the couple. This couple is good at craftsmanship and loyal. They really found a treasure.

Lin Yi and others are also very clever, especially Lin Yi. He is the oldest among the six boys and the most steady and reliable in doing things. She also likes to ask him to do anything she wants.

Lin Ruan planned to keep him busy in the store first, and later transfer him to the roast duck restaurant to stay with her and focus on training him.

The other people all have their own advantages, but compared to Lin Yi, they are still a little behind because of their age. Lin Ruan believes that if they are given more time, they will definitely catch up.

After taking a look in the kitchen to confirm that there was nothing she needed to worry about, Lin Ruan planned to find a place to sit down and rest.

As soon as he turned around, he saw Lin Han leaning against the wall outside with his head hanging down.

"What's wrong? Didn't you sleep enough?"

Lin Han looked up at her and pursed his lips.

"Aruan, am I useless?"

Lin Ruan raised his eyebrows: "Why do you say that?"

Lin Han raised his eyes and looked in the direction of the hall, and said with some frustration: "I just wanted to help greet the guests, but I found that I couldn't say a decent word, and I didn't know what to do at all. I want to help you,

To make you less tired, but I..."

Lin Ruan smiled and put some paste on his head, rubbing his hair that he had finally combed in the morning a little loosely.

"What are you thinking about? You don't have to worry about business matters. This is not your main task in the future. Of course, if you want to share the burden for me, you should learn slowly first. No one is born with everything.

"

Lin Han glanced at her: "But I feel like you can do anything."

Lin Ruan smiled, "So I am so powerful in your heart."

After Lin Han accepted his new identity, he was no longer as awkward as before, and he became more intimate when talking.

"You are already very powerful. I have never seen a girl as powerful as you. You are strong and courageous. You can also hunt. You are not even afraid of tigers."

Lin Ruan tilted his head and hissed: "Why do you think this sounds so strange to me?"

Lin Han pursed his lips and smiled: "What's weird, every word I say is praising you."

Lin Ruan snorted and hit him on the head.

"Don't think I don't know. You're trying to hurt me in a roundabout way. You're scarier than a tiger."

Lin Han held his head and jumped to the side: "You said this yourself."

Lin Ruan pretended to knock him again, but he quickly said nothing and went to the front to help greet the guests, and ran away quickly.

"No big or small brat."

Lin Ruan smiled and cursed, turned around and found a place to sit down and be lazy.

The first business was opened, and it didn't end until almost midnight (3 p.m.).

Lin Han shouted anxiously: "Ah Ruan, count quickly, how much money we have earned."

Lin Ruan opened the drawer, poured the broken silver and copper plates inside on the counter, and counted them. There were more than twenty-five taels in total. After excluding the ten taels of turnover silver, there was only a little more than fifteen taels left. After deducting the capital,

, this time, I earned nearly ten taels.

"Yes, if we can maintain this level every day, we can earn a lot of money in a month."

Doing business is a steady stream of work. You can earn one or twenty taels of silver a day, which is a very considerable amount in a year.

The roast duck restaurant will open in two days, and the income will increase.

Having hope in life makes people feel a little happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Lin Ruan glanced at everyone who looked a little tired and said, "Everyone should go back to the house to rest for a while. We have to continue working in the evening."

She was quite considerate of everyone. They put in much more effort than she did, and it was normal to be tired. Besides, most of them were still teenagers.

It’s just that business is like this, and hardships and hardships are inevitable.

Doesn't she even have to get vegetables from the mountains and deliver them to the county in the morning, then stay in the store all day, and then rush back in the evening?

Everyone went back to rest, and Lin Ruan stopped Lin Yi.

"Big girl, is there anything I need the little one to do?"

Lin Ruan smiled and said: "Lin Yi, you should seize the time these two days to follow Uncle Fu and learn how to entertain guests. When the roast duck restaurant opens in two days, you can follow me there." (Unfinished)
