Chapter 296 Done
"I have arranged for him to go out and do something." Su Ping heard that Su's mother was looking for Su Tai, and hurriedly told her where Su Tai was going.
"Oh, as long as you're not being lazy." After Su's mother knew where Su Tai was going, she did not ask where Su Tai had gone or what he had done.
By lunchtime, Su Tai and Du Lao returned home one after the other.
As soon as they walked into the yard, Su's mother saw them and shouted at them, "Go wash your hands quickly, it's time to eat."
When Du Lao and Su Tai washed their hands and returned to the living room, they saw the salted duck and fish head soup and other stir-fried dishes on the table. Su Tai exclaimed, "What day is today? We are having such a sumptuous meal! Is it Chinese New Year?"
"You are already this old, can you speak?" Su's mother slapped Su Tai, "It's not the fifteenth day of the first lunar month yet, which means the New Year is not over yet. We are still in the New Year."
"Then why is the food so good in the middle of the day?" Su Tai felt aggrieved. He didn't know why the food was so good. Couldn't he just ask?
"The bun shop made 15 yuan today, and business is better than yesterday," Su's mother had to explain to Su Tai, "Everyone is too tired, so eat something good to replenish your body."
"Then we are lucky today!" Old Du picked up the bowl and said to them with a smile.
"If business is this good every day in the future, we will benefit from it every day!" Su Yunyun was full of expectations.
"That's great!" Li Yue immediately smiled so hard that her teeth were visible when she heard what Su Yunyun said.
Then the whole family happily started eating and ate until their bellies were full.
Su Yunyun sat on the chair, looking at Li Yue and the others with happy but tired faces, and felt that the effect of such dietary supplements was too slow. Although the thermos at home was filled with water that she had boiled after adding medicinal spring water, their bun shop was too busy and people were busy all the time. People needed more nutrition, so they still had to add some more.
After thinking about it, I remembered the ginseng I bought before. If I arrange to stew ginseng soup every now and then, and add the double nourishment of medicinal spring water, I believe they will be full of energy.
"Mom, I gave you some ginseng before. Cut some off every once in a while and make soup for everyone!" Su Yunyun told her mother what she was thinking, "That nourishing thing!"
"Well, don't drink it too often," Old Du added after Su Yunyun said, "That's a hundred-year-old ginseng. Drinking too much is not good!"
When Su's mother heard that Mr. Du was endorsing Su Yunyun and saw the tired faces of the family members, she said, "Big brother, when you and the second brother go out to buy ingredients for tomorrow this afternoon, see if there are any ribs or bones for sale. If there are, buy some and we can add ginseng to make soup."
"Okay, Mom!" Su Ping took on the task assigned by his mother. After saying that, he wanted to go back to the house to rest for a while, and then go out to buy materials.
"Boss, I have something to tell you." Mr. Du stopped Su Ping and asked him to wait a moment.
"Uncle Du, what's the matter?" Su Ping stopped and looked at Old Du with great respect.
"Judging from the business over the past two days, the materials you buy every day should be pretty much the same, so have you ever thought about making a direct order from someone?" Mr. Du offered his suggestion.
"Reservation?" Su Ping didn't understand what Mr. Du was suggesting.
"You guys are so tired from running the business every day, and you have to drag yourself to buy materials for the next day in the afternoon. It's not only troublesome, but also tiring," Mr. Du explained. "Now you can help at home and reduce some of their workload, but what about when you go to college? The second brother and his wife and your wife will be so exhausted!"
"I really didn't think about this," Su Ping heard Du Lao's explanation and realized that Su An and his friends would be very tired if they continued to do this. He felt guilty and was very tempted by Du Lao's suggestion. "Uncle Du, could you please explain in detail what the reservation method is?"
"The amount of materials you need every day is about the same, so why not just set a standard amount and order everything," said Old Du. Seeing that Su Ping was very enthusiastic, the other members of the Su family also quieted down to listen to him. "Then you can find a fixed supplier to deliver the materials to you every day. Of course, you have to pay a certain delivery fee. Although this may seem like a bit of a waste, it can save a lot of time and physical effort compared to going out of your way to pick and buy the materials and bring them back every day."
"Boss, your Uncle Du's suggestion is a good one," Father Su agreed loudly upon hearing it. "It saves time and effort, and it's worth spending some money!"
"Well," Su Ping thought carefully and felt that this was the best way to proceed. "Then let's go find it this afternoon."
"You can order pork directly from the slaughterhouse. The pork there is fresh and the quantity is sufficient." Seeing that Su Ping accepted his suggestion, Du Lao continued to give advice. "Once you order more, it will be convenient to buy ribs and bones in the future. You can also make soup at home from time to time to nourish your body. Let me tell you, the bone soup contains calcium, which is good for the elderly and children!"
"For things like cabbage, radish, and tofu, it would be more convenient to make an order directly from the supply and marketing cooperative, or from someone who provides the supply and marketing cooperative with goods. However, this will depend on you to establish connections," Mr. Du thought for a moment and continued, "Don't worry about someone accusing you of something. You have a business license and your purchase is legal, so just relax."
"For other salts, seasonings and the like, you can buy more at one time and keep them at home. These things are durable and will not spoil easily over a long period of time," said Mr. Du, and then he looked at Su Ping with a smile, "Go and get these in the next two days. When you go to college, they won't be too tiring to keep at home."
"Okay." Su Ping was full of motivation after hearing this, and he didn't want to go back to the house to rest. "The second brother and I will go out and take a look."
"Brother, I'll go with you," Su Kang stepped forward. "I've worked in a supply and marketing cooperative before, and I know some of the work processes. I can go with you and lend a hand."
"Okay!" After hearing this, Su Ping punched Su Kang, said something to his family, and went out to do their work.
When Su Tai saw their receding backs, he opened his mouth and then closed it again. He decided to talk about the rent after they came back!
"Brother, you are really thoughtful!" Father Su looked at Mr. Du and expressed his admiration for him with joy.
"The more you see, the more you know!" After saying this, Mr. Du looked at Su's father's increasingly admiring eyes and smiled happily.
He is also a member of this family. How could he just watch his family members working so hard but not be able to figure out the trick and just do things brute forcefully?
That's why he would observe quietly from the side, and then point out a more convenient way for them to go, so that they can go quickly and worry-free.
The other members of the Su family also expressed their deep gratitude to Mr. Du!
People always say “having an elder in the family is like having a treasure”, but they have three elders in their family, which means they have three treasures!
At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Su Ping and his friends came back. They first went home to call Li Yue and the others, and then went to the bun shop to prepare the ingredients for tomorrow. It was almost six o'clock when the group came back from the bun shop.
Li Yue and her friends went to the kitchen to prepare dinner with joy on their faces. Su Ping, Su An and Su Kang came to the living room and told their long-awaited family members about their afternoon achievements. "It's all done as Uncle Du said!"
