Lin Xiaoyue went to look for Zhou Shi and asked her to get a carriage to go to town.

Lin Xiaoyue did not wait long by the roadside after she got into the carriage. Zhao Shanshan came over soon.

“Miss, I’ve already told my father to tell my brothers to bring the charcoal to town in the afternoon.”

“Good.” Lin Xiaoyue replied.

“Get in.” She continued.

“Yes.” Zhao Shanshan’s face lit up and she quickly got into the carriage.

Then, Lin Xiaoyue rode the carriage towards the village entrance.

When they reached the main road, Lin Xiaoyue began to teach Zhao Shanshan how to ride the carriage.

After Zhao Shanshan learned how to ride a carriage, Lin Xiaoyue handed the job to her.

It was already close to noon. After arriving at Qingshi Town, Lin Xiaoyue asked Zhao Shanshan to ride it to Liu Shi’s Eatery.

At this time, classes at Qingyun Academy just finished, and it was the peak period for selling cold cakes.

Lin Xiaoyue brought Zhao Shanshan to the counter to help out for a while. She realized that Aunt Wang was also able to handle it alone.

“Yue’er, go eat. 1 can do it alone!” Aunt Wang said.

In order to cope with the peak period, she had cut the cold cakes in advance and placed them in the bowls.

When the guests entered, she would just add some brown sugar water or preserved fruits.

Previously, when the business in the shop was good, it was not difficult for her to handle it alone. Now, it was even more so.

“There’s no rush. Let’s eat together after we’re done.” Lin Xiaoyue replied with a smile.

After that, Lin Xiaoyue waited until there were fewer customers in the shop before she went to the Qin’s Restaurant next door to order some food.

At the end of the day, the three of them ate together.

Aunt Wang even sent the used bowls and spoons to the back first. Then, she changed the wooden bucket for the bowls and spoons.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyue was impressed by Aunt Wang’s diligence.

“There’s not much business in the afternoon. I’ll go wash the dishes after eating.” Aunt Wang said as she walked.

Lin Xiaoyue thought of something.

Most of the time, she was alone in the shop. In addition to selling cold cakes at the front, the shop assistant also had to wash the dishes and clean up. It was a lot of work.

It was fine if the shop only sold cold cakes now, but they were going to add spicy skewers next.

It would be difficult to wash the dishes without hot water.

Lin Xiaoyue thought for a moment and said, “from tomorrow onwards, you don’t have to wash the dirty dishes.”

“Put them in a basket. When someone came to deliver the goods, they would take them back.”

“Leave the washing of the dishes to the workers.” Lin Xiaoyue looked at Zhao Shanshan.

She would arrange for someone to deliver goods to town. At most, the person would make three trips a day. It was not a big deal.

Before the apocalypse of the 21st century, some restaurants outsourced the cleaning work.

There were companies that specialized in washing dishes. They drove to various restaurants every day to pick up the dirty bowls. Then, they would wash and seal them before sending them back to the restaurants.

The restaurant saved money on hiring dishwashing workers, and the dishwashing company used machines to wash dishes. They could also make money by doing it in batches.

She prepared enough bowls, chopsticks, and plates. By bringing the dirty bowls back to wash them, she could save manpower in the shop and arrange more work for the workshop.

“Yes.” Zhao Shanshan quickly noted it down.

“That’s so troublesome. It’s not like washing the dishes takes much effort. The shop was only bustling during peak hours, so I could handle it!” Aunt Wang hurriedly said.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled and looked at Aunt Wang.

“It’s not a big deal now, but it will be in the future.”

Then, Lin Xiaoyue told Aunt Wang about her preparation for the new dish.

“There is oil in the soup of the spicy skewers. With the conditions in our shop, even if you have the time to wash them, you won’t be able to clean them properly.”

They could boil water in the workshop, and degreased with plant ash. It was much more efficient to wash them at home.

When Aunt Wang heard that the bowls and chopsticks would be oily, she immediately understood and agreed.

After the meal, Lin Xiaoyue arranged for Aunt Wang and Zhao Shanshan to go to the storeroom in the backyard and take out the pots and other appliances that she had specially prepared for the shop. After cleaning them, she placed them on the counter.

“In the afternoon, when you and Aunt Juanzi change shifts, tell her to come tomorrow morning.”

“The shop is going to have a new dish tomorrow. I’m afraid it will be a little busy.”

“Alright, 1’11 tell her. Don’t worry.” Aunt Wang immediately said.

“Also, the thing that 1 asked you to talk to Aunt Juanzi about…” Lin Xiaoyue was about to ask, but she thought about it and decided not to.

“Forget it, I’ll come over tomorrow and ask her myself..”
