Because crab roe buns are expensive, Lin Zhou doesn't plan to raise prices, so the finished crab roe soup dumplings are naturally not very big.

Compared to the small, palm-sized pickled mustard green buns, the crab roe buns, the size of a baby's fist, appear exceptionally delicate. They don't even look like noodles; they resemble crystal-clear jade soup dumpling ornaments.

After wrapping the buns, Lin Zhou kept two hundred for his stall and ate the rest himself.

After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, they leisurely rode their tricycles to set up their stalls.

The old man who went hiking didn't come with him to set up his stall tonight.

The old man's son would come back to see him every Sunday, have dinner together in the evening, and leave the next day.

The elderly man climbing the mountain was not happy about this; on the contrary, he was quite disappointed.

I spent ages complaining to him, saying that his son is over thirty years old and still doesn't have a girlfriend, and all he does is work, work, work.

Then Lin Zhou calculated the age of the old man climbing the mountain.

The old man was over sixty, and his son was over thirty.

This means that the old man also married and had children late in life.

How could I possibly criticize my son?

Of course, Lin Zhou still had some emotional intelligence and didn't say it aloud, but the shrewd Zhang Jianjun saw through it.

Then the old man snorted irritably and walked away arrogantly.

Lin Zhou found it quite amusing; no wonder there's an old saying that old people become like children, an old child, so apt.

......

At the familiar location and time, diners, watching the checkpoint, arrived at Lin Zhou's Huaguo Mountain restaurant and skillfully began queuing.

"Boss, you've finally arrived! I came really early today, at six o'clock!"

"Boss, what kind of steamed buns are we having today?"

Are there still purchase limits today?

"Boss, four buns aren't enough. Can you limit it to ten per person?"

"Boss, boss..."

As soon as Lin Zhou parked his tricycle, the diners in front of him started chattering.

Lin Zhou responded to each sentence in turn.

"Today we have crab roe buns and pickled mustard green buns."

"If there are two hundred steamed buns, and each person is limited to ten, they will be sold out after 20 people. But there are only about twenty people here, aren't there?"

At a glance, Lin Zhou knew without counting that there were definitely more than twenty people.

They definitely won't be able to close down the stall by then.

Each person is limited to four purchases, so we can sell them for at least a while longer. We served fifty people.

That way, not too many people won't be able to buy it, and then they'll all be dragging his tricycle around, preventing him from leaving.

Wow, crab roe buns! I love them!

"Crab roe buns must be very expensive, right? How much are they?"

"I also love pickled mustard green buns, are they spicy or salty?"

"Hey guys in the back, remember you can stop queuing after the fiftieth person. There are only two hundred buns left, so keep that in mind!"

A responsible diner had already called out to the people queuing behind him.

Don't wait in vain, only to find that you can't buy it then.

Among the crowd, the barbecue stall owner and his wife arrived at the roadside on their barbecue tricycle. Without even tidying up, they took the lead and lined up.

The barbecue stall arrived early, but there weren't many customers. Besides, with the steamed bun stall there, their barbecue stall had absolutely no business.

So, after tasting the delicious steamed buns yesterday, the barbecue stall couple set up their stall early this morning just to queue up and buy steamed buns.

"Okay, let's split the work. I'll take four crab roe buns, and you take four pickled mustard green buns. There are only ten people ahead of us, so we'll definitely have enough to eat. Don't worry."

Hearing the shouts from the people in front, the barbecue stall owner even counted the number of people before he breathed a sigh of relief, making sure they could buy some.

The proprietress had no objections; instead, she looked intently at Lin Zhou's actions.

"I'll listen to you."

It would have been better if she hadn't said that; the moment she did, the barbecue stall owner got even angrier.

"I told you long ago, with so many people queuing up, it must taste delicious. You didn't believe me. What do you care about saving face? Can face feed you?"

"Customers aren't stupid; who has the money to buy bad food?"

"Business is always so good, I should have bought some earlier to eat. I missed out on so many delicious buns!"

"I've never tried any of these flavors!"

The barbecue stall owner lowered his voice and said sadly.

The proprietress who was being talked about remained silent, clearly regretting her words as well.

Who would have thought that a steamed bun could be so delicious? It's simply unbelievable!

Yesterday's meat buns and tofu buns were so delicious that we almost swallowed our tongues.

Today, without anyone having to tell them, the two of them were incredibly enthusiastic about setting up their stall.

Is he thinking about setting up a stall, or is he thinking about eating steamed buns?

That's beyond words.

As the aroma of steamed buns gradually wafted out, the diners in front fell silent, all staring intently at the steamer.

The crab roe bun has the most intense aroma, with the fresh fragrance of crab meat mixed with a hint of the wheat aroma unique to flour buns. It's not strong, but it's so enticing that you can't ignore it.

One by one, they unconsciously raised their heads, looked at the many layers of steamer baskets, and carefully sniffed, trying to catch the faint aroma.

Once the heat was just right, the buns were completely steamed.

Lin Zhou lifted the lid of the steamer basket underneath, and steam burst forth like clouds, releasing a fragrant aroma that immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"The crab roe buns are made from the meat and roe of fresh June yellow crabs peeled this morning. They are genuine and of the same price as before, ten yuan each."

Lin Zhou called out to everyone to order, and as his voice faded, the diners in front of him finally saw the crab roe buns in all their glory.

Each one, crystal clear and glistening with oil, lies in a foil tray, literally lying down. The skin of the soup dumplings is extremely thin, allowing you to clearly see the glistening soup inside. The skin is so heavy that it trembles precariously against the foil tray, making one feel tender and loving just looking at it.

The first customer stared wide-eyed, overwhelmed by the rich aroma, his expression almost ethereal.

"Beautiful, absolutely gorgeous!"

The aroma of the noodles, combined with the fragrance of the crab itself, was irresistible. His stomach immediately began to rumble, as if a frog in a well was inside him, its rumbling reminding every cell in his body, every breath, of what hunger felt like.

"Four crab roe buns, please!"

Even if Lin Zhou were to show off the pickled mustard greens bun at this moment, it wouldn't be as appealing as the crab roe bun.

"forty."

Lin Zhou took the paper tray and used tongs to pick up four soup dumplings along with their foil holders and put them into the paper tray, which also came with a pair of chopsticks.

"There's dipping sauce here; help yourself if you need it."

How can you eat crab roe buns without vinegar? This is something Lin Zhou brought specially.

"OK."

The customer carefully carried the soup dumplings to Lin Zhou's stall and prepared to leave.

Crab roe buns should be eaten while they're hot. If they get cold, the fishy smell will overpower the freshness, making them less flavorful.

The man took out his chopsticks, gently picked up a soup dumpling, and examined it carefully.

I originally thought that such a thin dumpling skin would definitely break with a single poke and wouldn't be able to withstand such lifting and touching.

Unexpectedly, the steamed bun stood upright between his chopsticks, unbroken, with soup dripping from it, like a plump water droplet, trembling in the air once, then trembling again.

It terrified him!
