Chapter 57 Opening

On the day of official opening, Gary's family got up early in the morning. The bread was fermented and ready to be baked. It turned out that the bread was prepared the day before. Although the soup method was used to lock in the moisture, the taste was always worse. Now that there is a store, of course it is baked and sold immediately.

The oven is specially set up in the place closest to the kitchen, and a new door is opened in front of the oven. First, the oven heats up and dissipates the heat, and second, the smell of the newly roasted bread drifts out. Just like the aroma of coffee is always filled with the coffee shop.

When it was getting dark, Gary and Erica began to prepare to toast. The two children were not able to help, but Jiayi had already figured out what to do.

They were going to hand out flyers. It turned out that Gary sold bread every day. Jiayi and Donna handed over about 100 flyers that opened their new store. It was really troublesome to not have a printing shop. Although Jiayi understood the principles of movable type and woodblock printing, he couldn't build a printing factory just to print a flyer, which was too exaggerated.

The paper here is quite expensive. The paper I bought is full-page, about one meter long and half a meter wide. Jiayi made it six-divided in length and four-divided in width, and cut it into 24 pieces, which looks similar in size than 32k paper. It’s not that Jiayi was stingy, but the paper was really not cheap. He bought 5 pieces of paper and spent about 2 and a half silver slots, which averaged 50 copper pieces per piece of paper. Moreover, the quality of this paper is not very good, so it is slightly better than straw paper.

Although Gary had notified the customer when she was selling bread a few days ago, some people still didn't know in the morning, so they went to an old place to buy bread. There were always some people's news behind others.

The two stayed there for a while, then posted two flyers on the wall next to them, and went to another place to hand over the flyers. In fact, the effect of Jiayi's pair of flyers was not sure, mainly because they sent too little. However, if you want to send more flyers, you have to sell more paper and hire someone to copy them before you can make it too much money.

Speaking of which, the copying here is a quill pen, which is too difficult to write. If you are not careful, you will pierce the paper and use force, and the feathers will be bent. In particular, the quill pen is not cheap. Although the workmanship is more refined and the feathers are not ordinary feathers, they are actually more expensive than paper. Isn’t it just a feather? Is it very different to goose feathers? If you want to be cheaper, you can only make it yourself.

Jiayi felt that he had used it after using it. He got used to writing with branches on the sand table, but he was not used to using this weak quill pen. However, Donna used it better than him, and the characters he wrote were better than Jiayi's. Although Jiayi knew more words, it also required talent.

The two of them handed out flyers on the street with their own store locations written on them, and they used large characters to indicate that the new store was opened. In fact, the town is only so big, and many people know about Jiayi's new store, but they don't know much about the price reduction, and this time the flyer was not considered useless.

After handing over the flyer, the two returned home. At this time, many people were already queuing up at the shop at the door. Before they even entered the house, they smelled a strong smell of bread. The bread was freshly released.

After Jiayi and Donna came back, Donna helped sell bread, while Jiayi started her new product.

First, he took out the prepared beef, cut it into square slices, put oil in the pot, fry until 7 or 8 is cooked, and he prefers a little cooked. Then he added a little wine, which should have been added with red wine, but it was not available at home, so he used ordinary ale instead. After adding the wine, add minced garlic, chopped green onion, salt, and cooked until the juice was collected. Then cut a piece of bread, clip the fried steak into it, and add cabbage and onion rings.

That's right, this is the burger.

This is not sold as a main item, mainly because Jiayi is lazy, and it takes time to fry slices. The burger for steak costs dozens of copper coins per serving, but there is not even a single place. There is no such thing as spending money in the town, and most of them are stingy.

Even in the Lord's Mansion, when ordering bread, there is more black bread, and bread with honey will be reserved only during the holidays.

In addition to burgers, Jiayi also made bacon sandwiches, bread with butter and bread with honey. These are the ingredients prepared two days ago. They were processed yesterday and made today.

These added breads are not sold, but are given away by events and are lottery tickets on site. Will they be opened? How can there be no event?

"Boss, how do you sell these breads with meat?" When Jia put a handful of prepared hamburgers and other new varieties of bread, someone couldn't help but start asking.

Jiayi heard it and said, "This one has steak, 25 copper, bacon and honey, 20 copper, and this one has cream, 15 copper."

“So expensive?”

"This is such a thick slice of beef, and we cook the beef in a special way, and the taste is better." Jia Yi said that every merchant is like this, saying that his own things are so good.

“That’s too expensive.”

Jiayi said: "I knew you would think it was expensive. Today we won't sell these breads, we will draw them and give them away!"

Next, he announced the rules that everyone who bought bread could draw a small wooden sign from the box on the counter. If the wooden sign was painted red, it means there was a prize and you could choose any kind of bread. Therefore, there was more choice for winning first. Until the bread was delivered, the event ended.

"Come on, I'll give you 3 black bread. How many times can I get the prize for 3 bread?" said a big man. Judging from his style, it was like gambling money in a casino.

"There are nine bronzes in total. We can only get one at a time. We come by the number of times. No matter how many bread we buy at a time, we can only draw once."

"What if I buy it multiple times?"

"Then you have to queue up again. I would like to remind you that these breads will end after they are delivered. If you queue for the second time, it may end before it's your turn." Jia Yi said.

"Forget it, just once." The big man said, but unfortunately he was not very lucky and did not draw.

No one got the next few, and they were not lucky. But soon, the first lucky one appeared. It was still an old customer.

"Congratulations, Housekeeper Pas, what bread do you like?" Gary said, knowing this man, an old customer, a knight's housekeeper.

Butler Pas thought for a while and still chose the most expensive burger with steak.

"Butler Pas, try it and see if it's worth 25 copper coins." Jia said as soon as he saw that the butler showed no sign of speaking. If he was asked to bring the gift bread back, the publicity effect would be much weaker.

When the housekeeper Pas said this, he said, "Okay, I'll help them taste it. Let's see how it tastes like you."

He bit it down and couldn't help but close his eyes: "Well, it's good, it's good. It's delicious, it's really worth 25 copper coins. This meat is delicious and it's even better with bread."

At this time, people still cooked and roasted, and there was no other skill. So when they encountered the steak fried from Jiayi, they were immediately conquered. The taste was much better, at least not so heavy.

The praise from Butler Pas further aroused people's enthusiasm. The team bought bread much faster. Some people did not draw and actually went to queue up again.

One after another, two more people won the prize, one chose the steak burger and the other chose the bacon sandwich. After tasting it, none of them did not say it was good.
