Chapter 222: Little Customers
Set up a stall, Gao Dian is very experienced.
It's not that he blows, here, the most experienced stall, he said second, no one dares to say first.
After all, if he is a monk halfway through the family and can still come to his level, it is estimated that he will not be able to find a second one here.
Gao Dian was not in a hurry, he stood aside and waited quietly.
Time passed slowly, and the buses stopped, and many children came down from them.
Gao Dian was stunned, is today's guest a group of children?
After these children got off the bus, they didn't run over to buy food for the first time, they lined up to get plastic coins!
Not only him, but everyone else was watching.
One by one, the children received a lot of plastic coins, and they couldn't tell the difference between red and green.
Every child has a handful in their hands, which seems to be a lot.
This made everyone's eyes light up and they stared at the group of children...... Plastic coins in hand.
Every child has a lot of plastic coins in his hand, if he earns them all, wouldn't he be able to take off?
Many people have this idea in their hearts, saying that this is impossible.
How big can a child's stomach be?
No matter how much children like to eat, the amount of food is smaller than that of ordinary adults, and it is impossible to spend the purchasing power of plastic coins in their hands, unless someone sells them at a high price.
Many people have started to make pastries, and some have even already made them, looking at the children with anticipation.
Gao Dian touched his chin, he felt that there was no need to rush first.
At first, he was going to make some noodles and other pastries, but now he ...... He didn't want to make pastry anymore.
What do little ones like to eat?
Snack!
Gao Dian also came from a child, and when he was young, he liked to buy some grilled ham sausages and the like on the way from school.
Although Gao Dian can't make ham sausages, he can make grilled gluten!
When it comes to barbecue, most of the little ones have little resistance.
And the amount of grilled gluten on a skewer is not much, so you can eat a few more skewers.
In addition to barbecue, sweets are also popular with children.
When it comes to sweetness, the first thing that comes to mind is candy, how many children don't like candy?
He can't make candy, but he can make lily cakes! Lily crisp is not a candy, but it is also sweet.
Soon, Gao Dian decided to make baked gluten and lily crisp.
This group of children may not like to eat noodles, dumplings and the like, but baked gluten is different, even if you don't like to eat baked gluten, Gaodian still has lily crisp.
The delicate appearance and sweet interior should be popular with children.
Gao Dian hurriedly went to buy ingredients, he was already familiar with this place, and it didn't take too long to buy the ingredients.
After the ingredients were bought, Gao Dian found a problem, there is no grill here, so how to bake gluten?
Gao Dian pondered for a while, and then there was a solution, baked gluten can't be made, it can also be made into fried gluten, anyway, the effect is almost the same.
He began to make it.
Over there, there seemed to be a staff member carefully talking to the children, still holding plastic coins in their hands.
When they were done, the children disbanded.
Soon, a group of children gathered around, and there were several children next to each stall, with curiosity in their eyes.
Lou Xiangpeng looked at the child in front of him and asked, "Little friend, do you want to eat?" β
The child nodded hesitantly, then shook his head again.
Lou Xiangpeng looked stunned and asked, "Do you want to eat or don't want to eat?" β
"Big brother, can I watch for a while? I'm not hungry right now. The kid said.
Lou Xiangpeng smiled: "Of course you can, you can watch it casually, and eat it when you are hungry." β
The kid nodded, and ran away.
This caught Lou Xiangpeng off guard, why did he run away?
He screamed twice, but the kid ran faster, which made Lou Xiangpeng very depressed.
In most cases, similar to Lou Xiangpeng, the children did not buy and buy like crazy, but stood in front of one stall to watch the meeting, and then ran to other stalls to watch the meeting.
The little ones came and went, looking bustling, and as a result, none of the pastries were sold.
Gao Dian made some gluten and put it on a plate.
It's a pity for him that there are no bamboo sticks, which makes him always feel incomplete.
But the impact is not much.
He fried two of them and placed them in the most conspicuous place on the plate, and they were topped with chopped green onions, red oil, pepper and cumin powder, which was full of fragrance.
Some of the lily cakes were also made, like blooming lilies, and they looked good on a plate.
Unlike gluten, lily crisp doesn't have much of an impact if it's made in advance, as it doesn't need to be eaten hot.
Time passes slowly, and many people are a little impatient, and these little children just watch but don't buy, wasting their time.
Gao Dian didn't have any impatience, when he used to set up a stall, it was normal for him to not be able to wait for customers for a few hours, but now he is where he is.
On the stall in front of Gao Dian, many children gathered, and they had longing eyes.
Some people are very envious and jealous of his situation here, and there are not many children in front of their stalls.
As it approached noon, the children began to buy food.
"Big brother, I want this."
"Sister, I want to eat that."
β¦β¦
One after another, voices rang out.
Here in Gaodian, there are also children who say, "Big brother, what is that?" β
"This is gluten."
"What about that?"
"This one is a lily crisp, sweet."
"Big brother, I want this gluten."
"Okay."
Gao Dian should arrive.
He began to fry gluten, a job he hadn't done for a while, and he was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but he quickly became familiar with it.
"Spicy?" Gao Dian asked.
"Don't eat it."
Gao Dian answered and began to sprinkle spices.
He was like a roadside stall owner, asking about the tastes of every child.
"Here, here you go." Gao Dian pulled the fried gluten and handed it over.
I have to mention here that because there are guests coming today, the staff has specially prepared disposable cutlery and bowls.
The kid took the fried gluten, tasted it, and exclaimed, "This is delicious!" β
"Really? I'll taste it. β
"I'd like to try it too."
"And me."
The children made a mess, and there were people buying fried gluten here in Gaodian.
This thing was really loved by the children, and it sold out quickly, and Gao Dian had to fry it while remaking a part of it.
There were a lot of children in front of the Gao Dian booth, and at first they were all huddled together, and there was no order at all.
Then Gao Dian shouted: "Everyone line up and come one by one." β
Unexpectedly, the little ones were obedient and quickly lined up.
Some children bought two, others four or five.
Those who bought good gluten ran out to show off and publicize.
If Gao Dian didn't know about it, he would have thought that these children were entrusted by him.
Slowly, more and more children came to him, and the baked gluten was too much for their taste.
On weekdays, they are rarely able to eat it, and every time they eat it, they can taste it for a long time.
The smile on Lan Yuan's face slowly disappeared, and there were fewer and fewer small customers here, and even many people were shouted out and ran away.
It made him a little depressed.
He makes xiaolongbao, which pays attention to the thin skin and thick filling, one bite at a time.
Xiaolongbao is more difficult to make than ordinary steamed buns, small in size, delicate to make, and thin skin and thick filling, which requires a more delicate technique.
At the same time, because of the different body types, the steaming time is also different from ordinary buns.
Sometimes a different pastry is not a simple change in body shape.
Xiaolongbao is Lan Yuan's best pastry, although it is not the best, but it is not bad.
But he couldn't sell it!
You know, he's a strong contender on the entry list, and he's at a very high level.
He looked up, okay, there were the most people in Gaodian, and there was a long queue.
Lan Yuan was a little puzzled, what kind of pastry did Gao Dian make, so attractive to children?
He walked over and looked, and it turned out to be fried gluten!
Lan Yuan was speechless for a moment, what did he think it was, but the result was gluten?
He would do this too, but he didn't think about doing this, who knew that this gluten was so popular with children?
Although he was a little depressed, Lan Yuan didn't say anything.
He has a lot of plastic money in his hand, and even if he can't sell anything today, it doesn't matter much.
But he thinks that way, and many people don't think that way.
They looked at Gao Dian's stall and gritted their teeth a little.
Regardless of them, Gao Dian sells his own.
Many children ate other things, but because the fried gluten was so good for their taste, they came to buy it again.
Every child doesn't sell much, and Gao Dian doesn't make much, but he can't stand the crowd.
Accumulate a lot, and soon Gao Dian returned to his original capital and made money.
It's fun.
However, there was another thing that made Gao Dian a little depressed, he thought that the lily cake would be very popular, but it turned out that this was not the case, and the lily cake did not sell much.
Nine out of ten children who come here sell fried gluten, and only one buys a little lily cake, not much.
Slowly, the children are full and stop shopping.
Gao Dian gained a lot of unkind eyes, and they were robbed of business by Gao Dian, so naturally they wouldn't be too happy with him.
For these gazes, Gao Dian selectively ignored them.
Gao Dian looked at the remaining lily cakes and sighed slightly in his heart, although he seemed to sell a lot, what could he make by fried gluten?
The lily cake was not sold, it was basically smashed in the hand.
Actually, he didn't make much money either.
Time passes slowly.
In the afternoon, the children are playing games.
Most of the pastry chefs were chatting, and some were standing in front of the stove wondering what was going on.
Zhou Yongqing and Lou Xiangpeng ran over and asked, "I just saw that your business here is so good, how much did you earn?" β
Gao Dian shook his head and said: "I didn't make anything, gluten wasn't too profitable, and the lily cake didn't sell much, so I didn't make anything." β
When Zhou Yongqing heard this, he said with some pity: "Alas, I knew that you should have set the price higher, and with your business today, it is estimated that you can directly come to the top few, so that you can not worry about elimination for the time being." β
Lou Xiangpeng nodded again and again: "Brother Zhou is right, Brother Dian, you should raise the price a little, it's a pity." β
Others also looked pity.
Gao Dian's business today is the best, because he accurately grasps the preferences of children, if the price of his gluten is higher, he will definitely be able to make a lot of money today.
The plastic coins in your hand may be able to enter the top few.
Gao Dian shook his head and smiled: "I think it's good, it's worth the price, and it's not interesting to raise it too much." β
Zhou Yongqing and the others stopped talking, but they didn't say anything, just kept sighing.
Gao Dian didn't care, anyway, it wasn't that there was no chance in the future, who said he would definitely be eliminated?
He has not been idle during this time, and he has been working hard every day.
A little bored left and right, Gao Dian watched the children play games, and suddenly, the childlike heart rose.
He said to Zhou Yongqing and others: "I'll go have a while." β
With that, he ran over.
Zhou Yongqing and the others were stunned, only to see Gao Dian running over to play childish games with the children.
Zhou Yongqing smiled and said: "This is really childlike." β
Lou Xiangpeng looked at it and said later: "I'm going to play too." β
Zhou Yongqing's face stiffened, and he scolded: "It's true, such an adult, and still playing games with children, naΓ―ve!" β
After saying this, Zhou Yongqing shouted: "You wait for me!" β
The remaining four people, Feng Zhigang, Wang Zhong, Li Dongyang, and Zhang Lan, looked at each other, and after a while, they ran over one after another.
Join the ranks of childishness.
Gao Dian quickly mingled with the children and integrated into them.
He felt relaxed, maybe playing with the kids, and he felt a lot younger.
Hu Dekun looked at all this, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
It didn't take long for someone to beckon the children to go back, and they were a little reluctant.
Suddenly, a little boy took Gao Dian's hand and returned to his stall, and he said, "Big brother, I want to buy some of that." β
The little boy pointed to the lily cake, Gao Dian made a lot, and there were many that were not sold.
He still looked up at the stomachs of some children, and couldn't eat much at all.
The fried gluten was sold out, but there was a lot of lily crisp left.
But I finally got back to my roots and made some money.
When Gao Dian heard that the little boy wanted to buy lily cakes, he couldn't help asking, "Why did you suddenly remember to buy this?" β
The little boy said, "I'd like to bring some back to the dean." β
As he spoke, he took out the remaining plastic coins, which were red and green, and said, "Big brother, are these enough?" β
Gao Dian pursed his lips and smiled: "You don't need so much, how much do you want, I'll pretend it for you." β
The little boy said, "I want eight...... No, ten. β
"Okay, I'll put it up for you."
Gao Dian counted a dozen, handed it to the little boy, and said, "Here you go, take it." β
"Big brother, I'll give you all of this." The little boy said.
Gao Dian shook his head with a smile, counted out ten lily crisp plastic coins from it, and returned the rest to the little boy and said, "Oh, I only need these." β
The little boy took it, put it in his pocket, bowed and said, "Thank you, big brother!" β
With that, he ran away.
Gao Dian smiled and shook his head, this little boy is very cute, so it's too expensive not to charge him.
After a while, a group of children came running over and shouted to buy lily cakes.
