Song Sanniang's Journey to Wealth

Chapter 179 Everything goes well

Song Sanniang thought about it at night and decided to add egg tarts and coconut tarts. Because they were going to make desserts at Jin's house that day, they didn't have to worry about the oven.

Jin Fugui said that the Jin family would prepare any materials needed, and Song Sanniang and the others only needed to prepare the people.

The next day, Song Sanniang and Jin Fugui had an agreement. The Jin family offered a price of one tael of dessert for each table. Then Song Sanniang told Jin Fugui the necessary ingredients, and the Jin family would prepare them.

Because Song Sanniang had never used an oven to make egg tarts before, she needed to practice in advance, so she told Jin Fugui about it. Jin Fugui would prepare the ingredients in advance and come to pick Song Sanniang up after they were ready.

After sending Song Fugui away, Song Sanniang told Song Ersao about this matter, because she certainly couldn't do it alone.

In addition to Song's second wife, she also planned to call her eldest aunt. The three of them should be enough, although only the second aunt was in the sweet kitchen.

But everyone can help out in the kitchen from time to time, so there is no need to worry about lack of manpower. Moreover, they are only absent at noon and in the afternoon. They are always there when preparing ingredients in the morning.

The next day, Jin Fugui arranged for someone to pick up Song Sanniang, so the three of them went to the Jin family. There were several people in the kitchen alone.

They were taken by the kitchen staff to a place with an oven for making desserts, and the ingredients were prepared and delivered.

Song Sanniang and the others did not waste any time. After Song Sanniang and Song Ersao explained the methods of making egg tarts and coconut tarts, they quickly started making them.

When the first batch of egg tarts were successfully baked, the kitchen was filled with the sweet smell of egg tarts. Then the second batch of coconut tarts were also baked. Someone in the kitchen came over curiously.

So they were given freshly baked coconut tarts and egg tarts, which they ate to their amazement.

Jin Zhaohua knew that Song Sanniang had come, so she took the time to come over and see her. She also ate. She was obviously amazed by the sweetness and deliciousness of the egg tarts and coconut tarts.

She pulled Song Sanniang aside and said that she would also ask Song Sanniang to make egg tarts when she got married. Song Sanniang agreed with a smile. With her relationship with Jin Zhaohua, she was happy to do it even if the Jin family didn't pay.

Miss He was expected to go to Beijing after Jin Zhaohua left. She felt a little reluctant when she thought about it. After all, she still had very few friends.

If I write to Miss He now, she will receive it the next day. But in Beijing, it is far away and I don’t know when I will receive it.

No matter what she thought, time passed quickly. After she finished preparing the dessert for Jin Zhengan's wedding,

Tian Mi Mi became famous again among the wealthy people in the capital city because of the desserts they made, which also enabled her subsequent takeaway business to be successfully launched without encountering any difficulties.

After the Jin family wedding banquet, Song Sanniang notified the people she had recruited to come to work. They were given three sets of uniform clothes, both for men and women, of the same style as in the store.

At that time, Song Sanniang had a bit of mischievous taste and wanted to make clothes like Meituan for everyone to wear, but in the end she ended up making them the same as the work clothes in the store.

In the first stage, everyone distributes flyers in the area they are responsible for to promote the sweet takeaway business. Those who get the flyers can choose to use them to deduct money or get a snack for free.

There is also a recharge service, with different discounts for different recharge amounts. Everyone goes to sweep the streets in the area they are responsible for according to the requirements of Song Sanniang's training.

The second stage was to try out the takeaway business and start taking orders. Every day they would walk the streets like peddlers, shouting and attracting people to place orders, or collect takeaway orders placed by others. The effect was immediate.

Because "Tian Mi Mi" was already famous, after the Jin family banquet, it became well-known in the circle of wealthy people.

Because Tian Mi Mi doesn't have private rooms, some people won't buy it even if they are interested, and some will send their servants to buy it for them.

But now with the errand boys calling out, people who have eaten it will want to order it again, and those who haven’t eaten it will want to try it.

The takeaway business had only been in operation for a short time when the sales increased by two-thirds. Two horse-drawn carriages were no longer enough, and even donkey carts were put to use.

The sweet business became more prosperous, and the candy jar business was also popular.

But soon after everyone tried it, they felt that it was not as good as Sweet Honey. In the end, the store’s business was dying and the owner had to close it down.

In the first month of the takeaway business, Tian Mi Mi's net income quadrupled. She was not stingy and gave 10% of the income to the store and errand runners as bonuses.

The base salary for errand runners is 500 wen per month, and each order is charged a delivery fee based on the area. The farthest is 10 wen, and the closer is 5 wen.

The errand fee is shared equally between the store and the errand runners. Each group in the four areas takes turns to be in charge of one week, so that everyone's income will be balanced, and the distant areas will not always have higher income than the nearby areas.

In addition to the income from Tian Mi Mi, Song Sanniang also made a lot of profit from the Tan family's furniture store. At the beginning, she only received two or three hundred taels of dividends.

However, as the market for Master Tan's furniture opened up, and Song Sanniang later came up with some creative children's entertainment facilities, Master Tan's business became better and better.

As he began to expand his business to other counties and prefectural capitals, Song Sanniang could receive dividends of over a thousand taels a month, and her income would continue to increase in the future.

Song Sanniang plans to buy a shop in Fucheng and open a branch of Tianmi Mi in Fucheng. Due to the increase in takeaway business, the time cost of going to distant areas is higher than that of the store.

She plans to buy a store in Neihe area, which has beautiful scenery and is convenient to all directions. If she receives an order from other areas, it will be much faster to deliver it to Neihe.

So she and Song Laoer went to find Huang Gui again. Huang Gui happily introduced several good shops he had on hand to Song Sanniang. Song Sanniang took a fancy to two of them, so they went directly to see them.
