Chapter 11 The opening is auspicious
Early the next morning.
When Hongdou got up, he found that in addition to her, everyone else, including Brother Tuan'er, was busy.
Zhang was kneading the ice powder, and Xie Pozi was making ice in the kitchen.
The little girl helped Brother Tuan to wash perilla leaves and mint leaves in the yard for later use.
The preliminary preparations are almost done.
She looked at the sky, how early they had gotten up.
"Grandma, mother, when did you get up, why don't you sleep more?"
"Girl, your grandmother and I are not sleepy, get up early and prepare, so as not to be in a hurry."
Zhang didn't actually sleep much all night, mainly because he was excited.
Yesterday's popular cold noodles and chilled shiso drink gave her confidence.
Now that there is ice powder again, they all think it is good to eat, but I don't know if the guests also like it.
She was desperate to know the result, and she couldn't sleep well after tossing and turning, so she simply got up early to get busy.
This is especially true of Mrs. Xie, especially the elderly who are less sleepy.
Brother Tuan is completely excited, the family earns money, so he can study with confidence, otherwise he will always feel that he has become a burden to the family.
As for the little girl, she would get up so early and take the initiative to help with things, which no one expected.
Red Beans felt everyone's enthusiasm, and the laziness that had just gotten up was gone.
She took out the grapes and other wild fruits, washed them, and began to make jam.
After pouring brown sugar water on the ice powder, and then pouring some jam on it, the color looks good, so as to attract others to pay.
Just as she was about to see who was free, the little girl took the initiative to sit in front of the stove.
Red Bean smiled slightly and began to move.
It's a pity that the little girl doesn't seem to know it.
After some scramble operation, the sky has been brightened.
Ice powder and jam have been frozen, and cold noodles are also being prepared.
By noon, they will be able to start their day.
"By the way, girl, we only have one table in our house, I'm afraid it's not enough."
Zhang thought that the red beans were brought up yesterday, and he wanted to prepare tables and chairs and rain cloths to block the sun.
But the table at home is afraid that it is not easy to use.
"Mother, it's okay, let's take out this one at home first, and if the response is good today, let's go buy an old one back."
After all, it is a small business, and two tables are enough, so there is no need to prepare too big a stall.
"The most important thing now is to negotiate the price of ice powder?"
After Hongdou finished speaking, he looked at Mrs. Xie and Zhang, wanting to hear their opinions first.
After hearing this, Zhang looked at his mother-in-law and thanked him.
Xie Pozi thought for a while, and then said a price nervously:
"Why don't you just pay a bowl for three pennies?"
After all, most of the materials are not bought with money, the cost is low, and they are too expensive for fear that people will not want it.
On the basis of what my grandmother gave, red beans were added with two texts, that is, five texts.
Cold noodles are food, after all, and they can fill the stomach.
Ice powder is a snack at most, and many people are afraid that they are reluctant.
But after all, it's a new thing, and with the toppings, Wuwen is quite reasonable.
Most importantly, ice is expensive.
"Grandma, mother, let's sell ice powder for five yuan a bowl, eight yuan for two bowls, try it first."
"The perilla drink and cold noodles are still the same as yesterday."
Others have no opinion, after all, these are all made by red beans, listen to her try it first, and then adjust it if it doesn't work.
"Little girl, I know you can hear us, and when my family is done, I'll take you to see Lizheng in the afternoon."
"Or, if you know where your home is, you can tell us."
The matter of eating was almost dealt with, and Red Bean set his eyes on the girl who brought it back.
You can't always leave strangers at home all the time, and it is always inconvenient for them to go out, whether they leave them at home or take them out.
The little girl saw that Hongdou suddenly turned the topic to her, opened her mouth, but still didn't make a sound.
Just shook his head at her.
I don't know if I remember, or if I don't want to go.
The Xie family confirmed it now, this girl is really dumb.
Maybe it's really someone else's family doesn't want it, and it was discarded early.
If that's the case, you're in trouble.
。。。
Noon is approaching and the time has not yet come.
Everyone in the Xie family went out together, strictly speaking, today is the official start of their business.
Originally, there were a lot of things, not only chilled perilla drink, ice powder and cold noodles, but also tables and chairs.
They planned to take it twice, but to their surprise, although the little girl ate a lot, she also had a surprisingly strong strength.
She alone carried two buckets of things, and it didn't affect her movement in the slightest.
What a surprise.
Now they don't have to make another trip.
Cross Street, same location.
Zhang arranged the tables, chairs, and tarpaulins, and Xie Pozi went to a nearby grocery store to rent some bowls and small tables.
In this way, a simple stall is made.
Several people smiled and cheered each other on.
The people in charge of shouting are still Xie Pozi and Brother Tuan. After all, one old and one young have experience.
"Shiso drink with ice. Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, grandparents, come and drink. ”
"Cool and delicious new food, come and taste it, Fengdu County is the only one."
"Cold noodles, cold noodles, delicious and inexpensive, and it's full."
"I can't eat and suffer, I can't be fooled, and I still want to eat after eating"
Hongdou looked at her hard-working grandmother and younger brother and couldn't help laughing.
She served two bowls of ice powder and asked them to stand in front of the stall and shout as they ate.
If you sell your own food and eat it yourself, others will be more assured and curious about what you eat.
In modern times, this is called eating and broadcasting, and the effect is quite good.
Sure enough, when the two of them were satisfied, some guests stepped forward one after another.
The first to come was the first lady to buy cold noodles yesterday.
"It's good that you're here, quick, help me mix five bowls of cold noodles."
"I brought my own sea bowl, help me fill it inside, I want to take it away."
The eldest lady said and took out two sea bowls from the basket and handed them to Zhang.
"Okay, right away, right away."
Zhang happily took it, and the opening was auspicious, a good sign.
Seeing this, Mrs. Xie and Brother Tuan screamed even more energetically.
During the period, Hongdou didn't want to snub the guests, and chatted without a word:
"Auntie, I didn't expect that today was the first time you took care of our business, and your grandson ate well?"
The eldest lady's surname is Li, and her family runs a blacksmith shop in this town, thinking of her grandson's good appetite yesterday, she chatted happily.
"Not really. It's not just my grandson who likes to eat it, but everyone else in the family tasted it yesterday, and they all liked it. ”
"My good grandson doesn't have enough to eat, so I'm going to buy it early today."
"I'm glad you came early today. lest I have to wait. Hehe~"
Zhang was even more energetic when he heard that the guests liked his cold noodles so much.
Well, guests can't be kept waiting.
Hongdou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, this business seems to be stable.
"Thank you Auntie for taking such good care of our small business, since you are our first repeat customer today, then...
