Recently, the most famous person in the west district was Su Tang.

At first, when her name appeared in everyone's mouth, she was just a poor orphan, bullied by her grandmother and her evil relatives. Fortunately, Governor Pei helped her get justice, otherwise, she would still be bullied.

Of course, her breakfast store also gained fame at that time.

Especially the soft cake. Many people in the East district asked their servants to buy it. It was easy to see how delicious it was.

When Su Tang's name appears in everyone's mouths again, it was because of how she pays her employees.

Wow, how satisfying the money was! Many men didn't even make as much money as her two helper aunts.

Aunt Zhou and Wang Wu's wife were now full of confidence and were so respected by the people around them, what else if not because they had plenty of silver.

After that was the God of Cooking Competition, held by Governor Pei. Su Tang made a squirrel mandarin fish in the God of Cooking Competition.

It was said that the judges couldn't stop eating. They boasted about the dish saying that it was delicious!

Su Tang quietly went straight into the top 30 of the God of Cooking Competition!

People must know that Hao Quan Kun, a famous chef in the West District Restaurant, was just able to win the title of the top 100.

Su Tang was so powerful ah.

After the squirrel mandarin fish, the people in the west district also know that the steamed acacia flowers, which were popular all over the capital, were also created by Su Tang!

She was so down to earth and has a scar on her forehead, yet she has now become a celebrity in the capital?

And people heard that she was invited when Jing Shui Pavilion in the east district had a sea and river food banquet.

The surprises from Su Tang weren't over yet, the next news was that the Ying Chun Pavilion which was bankrupt, has been renamed West District Restaurant by Su Tang.

Everyone thought that Su Tang would lose money this time, but what happened?

Now the whole of the west district knows that Su Tang's West District Restaurant was full every day. She had recruited new staff members too, otherwise, she would be very busy.

It doesn't have that much of an impact on everyone, but the people of the west district were just enjoying the excitement.

But in fact, Su Tang has brought many profitable opportunities to many people.

For example, she doesn't prevent other people from following suit, and now lunch boxes are booming all over the west district, which really creates an opportunity for a lot of people to make money.

Even if it couldn't compare with Su Tang's West District Restaurant they still could make some profit.

But it wasn't these people who benefited the most.

The ones who benefited the most were the shops that helped Su Tang a lot from the beginning.

Just like uncle Song's grocery store. Originally, his family only had one small grocery store. They bought some daily ingredients by relying on their acquaintances, and it was impossible for them to be able to make a large profit.

Even uncle Song let Su Tang borrow eggs, flour, and even powdered sugar when she was at her most difficult time.

When the business in Su Tang's store started, all the raw materials were bought from uncle Song's grocery store!

In the beginning, it was just a breakfast store business but that also required countless amounts of flour and rice.

More than one hundred catties a day!

This was big business, however, you look at it.

Now Su Tang opened the West District Restaurant, the profit for their shop would be even more amazing.

There were countless amounts of rice, flour, and condiments that the West District Restaurant needed in a day!

Now uncle Song plans to rent another warehouse and expand the store!

Some people who follow suit in Su Tang's lunch box business, also go to uncle Song's store to buy ingredients. It could be seen from the naked eye that uncle Song's life was getting better and better.

And several suppliers for the key ingredients for Su Tang such as the pork and chicken stores send food ingredients continuously every day. The butcher, Liu family, and even the carpenter's family, everyone almost thought that Su Tang had the character of the God of Wealth written on her face!

The west district was so big and there were so many meat shops and grocery shops, but just the stores near Su Tang's house were used by her, so who wasn't envious!

Not to mention the tofu shop next door to Su Tang! All of them were making profits together!

Otherwise, why did Su Tang deliberately choose tofu instead of other dishes!

Anyway, in everyone's mind, Su Tang decided to order tofu, just to take care of her neighbor's business.

When the words reached Su Tang's ears she was dumbfounded.

In fact, it was because spicy tofu was easy to cook, tasted good, and went very well with rice!

Anyway, the tofu family next door was very polite to Su Tang and even greeted Su Jin Hang and gave him snacks when he passed by.

But Su Jin Hang was so frightened that he ran home in a flash.

Just when everyone thought that the West District Restaurant would stay like this in the future, Su Tang's newly made lunch boxes were delivered by the carpenter.

These boxes looked similar to the previous ones. They were made of wood, polished and smooth but Su characters were engraved on the corners, which proves that they were Su's lunch boxes.

But this batch also had something a little different to it, there was an additional lid, the lid had a flat shape and could cover the lunch boxes tightly.

In this way, it is more like a modern lunch box with a lid!

Su Tang's purpose was to deliver lunch boxes!

But her lunch boxes need to be recycled, cleaned, and reused. There was no such thing as disposable tableware in this era.

Yuan Hong Wei, the steward, who was about to leave the pier, was even more confused.

He had been eating in the West District Restaurant with the people from his ship recently. To tell you the truth it was delicious, cheap, and convenient.

And he also knew that Su Tang had allowed everyone to learn her method. There were many such small boxes of rice and dishes around the pier.

Yuan Hong Wei tasted it but it wasn't as good as the West District Restaurant.

But what does this lunch box do now?

After listening to the introduction from the waiter, Yuan Hong Wei suddenly realized that it was for delivery!

There were many delivery services in the east district. There would be service guys and business people on the street at any given time. Give them some money and they would help you to buy things.

Like the Song dynasty before Su Tang's time and the Tang dynasty, there was always such bustling business in the central city.

The present Cang Qin dynasty was no exception.

This is also the first 'takeout' industry.

But these were just services to be used once in a while.

It was the first time he had seen Su Tang specialize in such a takeout business.

The waiter explained. "Many sailing merchants, or Masters with many subordinates, always need to take care of the food of the people underneath them. If the Master doesn't have time to settle it then they can come to us to order meals.

The minimum order is ten servings, and one serving is still fifteen coins. But it can be delivered directly to your ship or the Master's homes. If you order more than fifty servings, you only need fourteen coins for a lunch box. It's just that the order has to be given half an hour in advance. "

Yuan Hong Wei thought about it carefully, and he couldn't help but applaud the owner of this restaurant.

What a strategy!

If it was a large merchant ship, there would always be more than fifty people on board. Wouldn't it be convenient and cheaper if the steward directly ordered the lunches and asked the restaurant to deliver them?

For example, in the morning when people were busy, the steward could ask the servant to run to the West District Restaurant to order dozens of lunches, after giving the money they just needed to wait until noon. There was no need to send their own servants, as the restaurant staff would send the lunches over and an hour later the staff members would come again to take the lunch box away.

It was convenient and saved money.

Presumably, as soon as this method comes out, the ship merchants on the pier would buy lunch boxes at the West District Restaurant.

Not only that, many families in the capital could come and order meals if they need to entertain their coworkers for lunch.

And this lunch box was beautifully made, too.

It was pretty decent.

Even though this current lunch box being shown to them was a bit dull. There was also a premium lunch box. The food inside was exquisite and could be used to entertain distinguished guests.

Different boxed meals had different prices, which could meet the needs of different people.

Good move, it was a very good business opportunity.

Su Tang has long thought of these things.

She was just afraid that the staff members of the West District Restaurant couldn't accept so many things at the moment, so she was going step by step.

Now there were nearly thirty employees in the West District Restaurant.

Even the cashier has an assistant beside him, otherwise, it would be difficult to collect the money every day. It could be seen how abundant the profits were.

There were around eight staff members, led by Li Fan, who took care of both floors with tasks such as cleaning.

There were eleven staff members in the back kitchen, four main chefs, and everyone had an assistant chef.

And eight dishwashing aunts and every day all they did was just wash the dishes.

The West District Restaurant was indeed very large, otherwise, the backyard wouldn't be able to accommodate so many people.

The monthly salary given to them by Su Tang wasn't small either and so everyone worked more vigorously.

Look at all those busy people!

Su Tang was still a little dumbfounded. At first, she seemed to only want to open a restaurant?

How did it become like this?

The restaurant has even become the leader of the entire fast food industry in the west district, as long as the West District Restaurant had new dishes, the other small business that sells lunch boxes would certainly follow suit.

For example, Su Tang added an extra stir-fried tofu skin to the recipe. Within two days, there were stir-fried tofu skins in fast food restaurants all over the west district.

Whether it was delicious or not, it already happened anyway.

This makes Su Tang unable to laugh or cry.

The change in the west district was also noticed by the imperial court.

The young emperor knew everything and also knew that it was because of Su Tang.

Moreover, he had also read the memorials handed over by old General Shi. He has asked the border troops to test whether this method was a good solution. If it was, it would be extended to the whole army.

But the matter was still a secret and hadn't been leaked to the wider court for the time being.

But in the imperial court, also discussed these matters.

Maybe commoners wouldn't think about what they could eat and drink but the imperial court pays attention to what they eat and drink. They help them analyze the positives and negatives and discuss how to regulate things.

One of the things in the morning court today was that the Minister of Households raised the matter of the lunch box and discussed it with everyone.

The discussion ended with good results.

It is advantageous to let the laborers in the west district eat well and it could also speed up the circulation of the goods on the pier. The Minister of Households was still very satisfied.

After this matter was exposed, the ministers in the court began to discuss other matters.

Seeing this, the young emperor waved the eunuch over and whispered a few words.

Half an hour later, the West District Restaurant received a very special order. Li Fan, the chief steward of the West District Restaurant, almost couldn't stay upright.

After discussing this with the cashier and Mr. Hao, he immediately went to the Su breakfast restaurant to find their Boss!

Su Tang was shocked when she heard what Li Fan said. "What are you talking about? From the palace? Someone from the palace ordered lunch boxes?!"

Li Fan's legs softened with fear. "Yes, now the restaurant is in a panic. He said he was booking in advance and for us to deliver it at noon. Just when the ministers finish at court."

Huh?!

Who ordered this in the imperial palace? Even if the emperor wanted to keep the ministers for lunch, did they have to eat lunch boxes?

Anyway, Su Tang rushed over to the West District Restaurant.

She thought that she had nothing to do today and wouldn't have to go over, but that clearly wasn't the case!

The eunuch who came to deliver the message saw Su Tang coming and said with a smile, "Boss, this is the money for the premium lunch boxes. Please make them."

The eunuch actually knew Su Tang's name. After all, the emperor and the Weiyuan Marquis, Qi Tian Yun, were all important people. Naturally, as servants, they needed to remember the people they favored.

He didn't expect that she was such a petite young girl. It was a pity that she had a scar on her forehead, if it could be healed completely she would be a beautiful girl.

This scar was really unpleasant to look at.

Su Tang took the money, looked at the bewildered staff members, and lightly coughed. "Come on, three hundred premium lunch boxes, let's do it quickly, we can't delay the opening of the business."

She couldn't imagine that she would ever receive orders from the palace when she first opened a fast-food restaurant!

Forget it, as long as there was money
