Chapter 100 I Want to Earn Money to Get Away from Home

The customer frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with the price.

"It's not expensive, big brother. We make it all by hand. The ingredients we use are all made today, so they're fresh! The fruit is also fresh, and they're all good stuff. Look at this full bowl! I've also bought those self-service options, and they're all semi-finished products made by machines!"

Lu Hongwen was a man of great gratitude and would always help when needed. When he saw someone coming, he would get up from his stool and start selling without saying a word.

"I'm telling you, the taste is definitely worth the price. Buy a bowl and try it. If it doesn't taste good, I won't charge you!"

"Really? I really came to return it because it wasn't tasty? My wife and kids were right in front of me, and they insisted I buy it."

The visitor was a middle-aged man. He was skeptical about what Lu Hongwen said and bought a bowl.

"Okay, big brother, I'll get you a few more spoons!"

Lu Hongwen answered readily.

"Hey, my kung fu finally came in handy! That's awesome!"

Lu Hongwen looked at his elder brother walking away and said in a very good mood.

Zhao Xiaojing turned her head and looked at Lu Hongwen thoughtfully.

"Sister, what's the point of my sales talent? I've read tons of sales books and watched tons of psychology videos, but I have no place to put all my skills to good use!"

Without waiting for Zhao Xiaojing to speak, Lu Hongwen turned around and asked with great interest.

"That's impressive. What about your studies? Aren't you already a senior? You're thinking about this all the time, and you're still setting up a stall. Can you handle it?"

"Hey, I'm just too busy, so I choose to sell things like ice jelly that don't take up a lot of time to mix!"

Lu Hongwen sighed and returned to his chair to continue eating.

"If you are too busy, why do you insist on setting up a stall?" Su Yuchen asked.

"Because I want to make money and get away from home." Lu Hongwen said helplessly.

"My family oppresses me. They're rich and can afford to support me, but I just won't give them my monthly living expenses. Even if they do, they never pay them on time. Every time I ask for money, they scold me for two or three hours! Two or three hours, just because I asked for living expenses!"

"Do you want a lot? How much is the living expenses?"

"Not much, 1500 a month, not even as good as the most average family in our dormitory."

"Then are there any difficulties in your family?" Zhao Xiaojing also turned around and joined the conversation.

"No! My family is very rich. They would spend more than this amount just to treat people to a meal! But they just wouldn't give me anything. Many times it's been a month and a half, and I called but they didn't answer. I even had to borrow money from my roommates! That's why I wanted to find a way to earn some money on my own."

The more Lu Hongwen spoke, the more aggrieved he felt.

"Does making money interfere with your studies?" Zhao Xiaojing asked again when she saw Lu Hongwen looking pitiful.

"It definitely delayed me, but not making money delayed me even more. I also had to worry about survival and whether my family wanted to kill me. I couldn't continue studying at all!"

Zhao Xiaojing pursed her lips and looked at Su Yuchen, both of them with sympathy on their faces.

"It's her!" Zhao Xiaojing was about to say something when suddenly a loud roar was heard and three girls ran towards the stall aggressively.

Zhao Xiaojing was startled, and Su Yuchen and Lu Hongwen also stood up hurriedly.

The crowd around stopped and looked over here.

"Boss, hurry up! A bowl of watermelon syrup!" The first girl who rushed over looked at the freezer and shouted loudly.

"Ah? Oh, okay." He came running over with such a big attitude, and I thought he was going to cause trouble, but when he shouted to buy some sweet soup, Zhao Xiaojing almost couldn't react.

"Boss, I want a bowl of green grapes!"

"I want watermelon!"

The two girls behind also followed, and Zhao Xiaojing realized that these two girls were the first batch of people to buy sweet soup. She hurriedly and happily made it for them. Then she looked at the backstage and saw that the progress of repeat customers had been updated again, 4/100.

Su Yuchen looked at him speechlessly for a while and then sat down again. Lu Hongwen touched his hair unnaturally and continued to sit down and eat the sweet soup.

The people shopping around were also puzzled. Why did they have to shout out for a sweet soup? Who couldn't afford it?

Some people also discovered this beautifully decorated dessert shop after hearing the shout, and came over to join in the fun and bought a bowl.

After a while, the two folding tables and chairs behind Zhao Xiaojing were almost full. Seeing this, Su Yuchen hurriedly stood up with his bowl in his hand and offered her a seat.

The guests sitting there exclaimed in amazement after taking a bite of the dish.

"This is a good start." Su Yuchen stood next to Zhao Xiaojing holding a bowl, and was very happy to see that there were customers coming at the beginning.

"I've already told you, be confident! With my craftsmanship, even if there's no business today, there will be tomorrow. It'll be a big hit sooner or later!"

Lu Hongwen followed with a bowl and stood aside, joining in the fun.

"Look, it's not even dark yet. It'll be even more crowded after dark. Why don't you make a few portions and put them in the freezer? When people come, they can just grab them and pack them up. It saves time, and they'll look nice there."

"Sure, did you learn this from the video account?" Su Yuchen asked. On the other side, Zhao Xiaojing had already started to do it as advised.

"Yes, I practice these sales tips every day. If I didn't have no money to invest in my skills, I would have earned over ten thousand yuan a month in no time!"

As Lu Hongwen spoke, he waved his hands exaggeratedly, and his friendly nature made the two of them laugh.

The three of them chatted casually, and occasionally a customer came to buy one or two servings of sweet soup.

It was not until night fell that the lights of various snack stalls along the street were lit up and large crowds of people began to move around, and the night market became truly lively.

At this time, the tall and prominent street vendor carts with the uniform green lights began to take effect. Many people saw the sign from afar and came over to see what was going on.

Although many people took one look and thought they were expensive and walked away, most people who liked to eat sweet soups couldn't move their feet when they saw the finished products in the freezer, and they all gathered around the stall to buy.

Once the stall became popular, passersby saw a crowd of people gathering around it and came over out of curiosity.

When there are the most people, all three of them work together: Zhao Xiaojing assembles the dessert, Su Yuchen packs it up, and Lv Hongwen also spontaneously helps to entertain the guests.

At 10:30 in the evening, all of Zhao Xiaojing's sweet soups were sold out, and seeing this, Lu Hongwen also returned to school.

"I didn't expect the business to be so good. It seems I didn't do enough today." Su Yuchen said happily.

"Fortunately, I didn't make much..." Zhao Xiaojing looked at the empty bucket and breathed a sigh of relief.

Today was my first day setting up a stall, and I only made about 100 portions. As a result, the system temporarily raised the price, which made it more difficult. Many people subconsciously wanted to leave when they heard the price.

If she does a lot, it's no big deal if she can't sell all the products until the early morning. But she will feel really bad if she fails to complete the task and has half of her next reward deducted.

Zhao Xiaojing went straight to the system backend to receive the reward.

【Mission Completed】

[Congratulations on receiving System Coins x50, Cash x200, Experience x200]

The mission was completed relatively smoothly, so the reward was much smaller, but it was considered free money, and Zhao Xiaojing had nothing to complain about.
