Chapter 106: The Skinny Scoundrel Comes to the Door

The two arrived at the shop that Ning Changrong rented on West Street. First, the saltpeter taro balls on the ox cart were removed and placed in the backyard of the store.

After putting the taro balls in the ice cubes and refrigerating them, the two of them began to get busy with the things in the front shop.

Ning Changrong first arranged the tables and stools in the store, and Wang Xiujuan cleaned up in the store, so he went to get a signboard.

After the materials are prepared.

[Ning's Cold Drink] opened.

As soon as passers-by saw ice cubes for sale, they were curious to look into the store.

"Shopkeeper, how do you sell this ice?"

Ning Changrong smiled, "Our store is newly opened today, and the original price of five cents a popsicle is only sold for four cents, only today!" Don't miss the sweet colorful popsicles! ”

"What are these taro balls?"

Ning Changrong pointed to the display next to him, "This is taro balls, which are soft in the mouth, and served with crushed fruits, which are most suitable for eating in summer!" If the weather is hot and you have a bad appetite, come to such a bowl, which is both cool and filling! It's only 10 cents a bowl! ”

Taro balls are made of taro, no matter how this is also food, plus the inside, fruits, and the sugar and other costs, ten cents is actually not expensive.

There are many people who ask, but when they hear the price, they are all daunted.

There are also people who grit their teeth and spend four dollars to buy popsicles, this store doesn't say everything, only today is four Wen, tomorrow it will be changed back to five Wen, this cheap is not for nothing.

Some parents can't resist their children and buy a colored popsicle.

The price of taro balls is really high, and they have not been sold yet.

There are several restaurants near the place that Ning Changrong chose, and the guests upstairs looked at the excitement below, and called the guy next to him, pointing to Ning Changrong's shop below, "What's going on down there?" Why is it so lively? ”

The young man who ran the hall said: "There is a new restaurant over there, and I heard that it is selling cold drinks." ”

The guests were a little confused, "What is a cold drink?" ”

The guests at the other tables were also a little curious, and turned their heads to look at their table.

The young man who ran the hall said: "It is a kind of food made of ice, I heard that it can relieve the heat after eating, and there is also a round one, which is called taro balls." ”

The guest threw a penny of silver and gave it to the young man and said, "Go, buy me the same one." ”

The young man took the silver and hurriedly ran towards the Ning cold drink shop outside.

More and more people are buying popsicles at the door, and it's really hot and evil.

"Give it up." The young man squeezed for a long time to squeeze in.

"Shopkeeper, bring me a bowl of taro balls and a popsicle."

Ning Changrong was very happy that Taro Yuan had finally opened.

Wang Xiujuan quickly packed a small bowl of taro balls, sprinkled with some brown sugar water, crushed fruit and crushed ice.

It looks very bright and delicious.

The young man returned to the restaurant with a bowl of taro balls and popsicles.

"It's really delicious!" The guest tasted a popsicle and then scooped a mouthful of taro balls with a spoon.

After eating, the whole body is cool.

The other guests were also a little greedy when they saw it, and those who brought the next person let the next person run errands, and those who did not bring the next person paid to ask the guys in the store to help them bring them up.

Wang Xiujuan didn't have much to do at the counter, so she was responsible for taking a few popsicles out, and now there are more and more people buying taro balls, but fortunately, the taro balls are cooked in advance, and she only uses freshly cut fruits and sprinkled seasonings. It's still busy.

Wang Xiujuan was responsible for doing it behind the counter, and Ning Changrong was responsible for bringing it out and soliciting customers.

When those people watched Wang Xiujuan work, their hands were clean, except for cutting fruits, they would use spoons instead of hands at other times, and rarely directly grabbed what they wanted to eat.

Eating in front of them, these people are relieved a lot when they eat.

It's a little more expensive, but it's a good thing.

Few people were willing to serve it out to eat, and Ning Changrong put a lot of ice cubes in the corner of the store.

As soon as they enter the store, they feel cooler than outside, and they are willing to finish their meals at the tables in the store before leaving.

After Ning Changrong opened a store in the county, it was more convenient for Ning Daniu and the two of them to sell popsicles.

Go directly to the store to buy goods, and you don't have to carry them from the village.

It was only sold on the third day that something happened.

A fierce-looking man, followed by three rags with broken skin, walked to Ning Changrong's shop and sat down.

As soon as the other guests saw these people, they all turned around and left. Within a few moments, the customers were gone.

Ning Changrong looked unkind, first comforted Wang Xiujuan with his eyes, and said in front of the person in the aisle: "I don't know what you want to eat?" ”

The leading scar man had a fierce face, "Who allowed you to open a shop here?" Do you understand the rules? ”

Ning Changrong put away the smile on his face, "I don't know what the rules are that Your Excellency is talking about?" ”

"This is our territory, how dare you not say hello when you open a store here? Five taels of silver a month, otherwise I will make your store unavailable! ”

Ning Changrong sneered in his heart, his rent is only two taels of silver a month, what kind of bullshit blood wolf gang dares to ask for five taels of silver, I am afraid that they will be red when they see their business booming these days.

"A few big brothers, the small shops are all small businesses, and five taels of silver is too much, and I really can't take it out."

The scar man said, "Can't take it out?" Okay, if you can't take it out, don't open it. Isn't that a simple question? ”

Ning Changrong said that that person just didn't get in the oil and salt.

"I don't know what the big brothers call them? How about I invite a few people to dinner today, just forget it? I also have a little friendship with Zhao Zhuhai in our county! ”

A hint of surprise flashed in the scar man's eyes, they had checked that this person was a mud leg from the countryside, but they didn't expect to know the catcher in this county.

He couldn't tell if what the man was saying was true or false. His subordinates all looked at him, if he was given a word by this person, how could he be a big brother after being scared?

Just as he was about to say something cruel, a voice came from outside.

"What's the matter with the Evergreen brothers? Why is there no one today? ”

Ning Changrong looked at the door, "Brother Zhao? Ouch, Zhang Zhukuai is also there? Come in. ”

Ning Changrong arranged for the two of them to sit down, first brought two bowls of taro balls, and then brought two popsicles.

The scar man didn't walk standing there, nor did he sit. The hairs stand on end.

Ning Changrong was doing business, and naturally notified Zhao Zhukuai, who often patrolled the streets.

It's just that the other party seems to be busy with the affairs of the county government in the past few days, so he has time to come over today.

Zhang Zhukuai and Zhao Zhukuai knew what the situation was as soon as they saw this person.

Zhang Zhukuai and Ning Changrong didn't have any friendship, but they had listened to each other's books. Zhao Zhukuai, under the friendship of Ning Changrong, has begun to call him brothers.

How could he not come out when he saw his brother being wronged.

"Scar Lee?"

After the scar man heard Zhao Zhukuai's voice, he hurriedly smiled and flattered: "Master Zhao." ”

The scar on his face was already terrifying, and his smile was even more hideous.

"What are you doing?"

"Ah, isn't this a store? I brought a few brothers with me to try it. ”

Zhao Zhukuai often patrols this place, and it is not clear what kind of virtue this person is.

Glancing at the scar man and the little brother who was shaking like chaff behind him, "If you want to eat, sit down." ”

The scar man hurriedly said, "Don't eat it, don't eat it, I suddenly remembered that there is still something to do." Don't bother Zhang Ye and Zhao Ye to eat. ”

After saying that, seeing that Zhao Zhukuai and Zhang Zhukuai didn't say anything, the scar man tentatively walked outside, and after finding that no one stopped him, he hurriedly ran away with his little brother and disappeared.

Treasures, ask for a monthly pass!
