Chapter 521 A Big Income

"Xiaomei, you take Xiaolu and the others and the people from the winery to eat first. There are still people in the store, and my elder sister and the others will probably take a while. Just take a few bites..." People are in high spirits when they are happy, and Cheng Zhenbao is full of energy at the moment.

Just now his second sister secretly gave him a number, and he thought that with the calculation, he could buy a house again!

This time, he also wanted to buy a bigger one and renovate it properly. At least it should be able to accommodate the whole family. If so, how many rooms would it take?

His parents have one room, his own family wants four, his eldest sister wants three, and his second sister wants at least four. Even if each room is ten square meters, it's over 100 square meters. Add in the kitchen, living room, and yard, and you have to buy a house that's at least 200 square meters...

"Okay." Wang Xiaomei nodded. "Is there anything I can help with?"

"No, you still have classes in the afternoon. Just eat well..." Cheng Zhenbao pushed his wife to the next room, hurriedly took two mouthfuls of rice, and went to the store to continue working.

In the store, Cheng Zhenzhu and the others were taking turns eating, as there were other people wandering around, asking about this wine, that wine, and so on. They would introduce them to others and then buy a bottle or two...

"Madam, just boiled fish, braised pork ribs, loofah soup, and this water spinach will be enough. If it's not enough, we can order more..." After Fang Xie and a few others bought more than ten cans of wine in one breath, they didn't rush to leave. Seeing that there was a restaurant next door, which was quite lively, they walked in to order dishes and eat.

"Oh, okay, okay! Sorry, there are too many people today. The dishes will be served as soon as possible. You can sit for a while and enjoy the fan. As for water, it's all from our own well, so drink as much as you want..." The proprietress smiled, wrote down the menu, said a few words, and hurried to the kitchen.

Oh wow! She was lucky enough to get some luck today. It was lunchtime, and these people had bought some wine and were just looking for a place to go. It looked like she'd have to buy groceries again this afternoon, but that wasn't a big deal.

This wave of wealth must be caught no matter what!

I heard they were all from out of town, so we had to show off their hospitality. Today, we're increasing the quantity without increasing the price!

Twenty minutes later, the food arrived at each table one after another. The hot, glossy food, each bowl full, was fragrant and made everyone's mouths water.

Fang Xiegen and his friends took a few bites and saw two kids at the next table counting loaches to each other. They felt a little greedy, so they called the proprietress again to ask for another plate of loaches.

"I'm sorry, we're sold out of loaches. We still have some yellow eels. Do you think they'll do?" The lady boss was a little regretful. She didn't get more loaches. They were cheap and plump at this time. Once fried, the net profit would be huge...

"Eel is fine too. Fry it in oil and it will smell delicious!" The less he had, the more Fang Xiexi wanted. Since he had no loaches left, he had to get the eels anyway.

"Okay, okay. Stir-fried eel, right away!" With that, the proprietress wrote down the order and went back to the kitchen to help out. Normally, her husband was the chef, along with two apprentices, and she was responsible for taking orders and collecting money, but today she was too busy...

Yellow eel? Xiaolu suddenly wanted to eat yellow eel after hearing this. She remembered that the yellow eel made by her second aunt was also very delicious! "Mom, are we having yellow eel tonight?"

"Aunt, the little lion also wants to eat eels." The little lion ate the last loach in the bowl, not wanting to let go of even the bones.

Wang Xiaomei: "We just had loach, let's have eel in a couple of days." She'll cook for the weekend. These days, with all the hustle and bustle, it's often Zhenbao who does the cooking...

"Loach, I still want to eat a little bit~~~~." The little deer and the little lion licked their lips in tacit understanding.

With so many people, half a bowl of loach is definitely not enough. The two little kids ate it with such a satisfying taste, and they couldn't get enough!

These two greedy cats... Wang Xiaomei asked the people in the winery to eat more dishes, and then dug some tender tofu for the two children. "So, we will make loaches and eels on the weekend, but you have to help prepare them. I will cook it when the time comes."

Did my mother (or aunt) do it? They were still two children, after all, and couldn't control their expressions perfectly. The disappointment on their faces was visible, but they spoke beautifully.

"It's my duty to deal with it." The deer raised his fist. "Do it yourself and you'll have enough food and clothing!"

"Yeah, it's my duty." The little lion also raised his fist.

Having this awareness is very good! Wang Xiaomei ignored the obvious disappointment on the two children's faces and told them to eat quickly, go back to sleep for half an hour, and return to school in the afternoon.

When it came to class, the little deer and the little lion were indeed sleepy, and there was already loach on the table, so they quickly got up from the table.

Before going back, they tried to poke their heads into the store and found their mother (eldest aunt) collecting money again, again in large bills. They looked at each other, then skipped away hand in hand.

As soon as I see my mother (eldest aunt) is in a good mood today, I know I’ll be rich soon!

"Big sister, your publicity is quite effective!" Cheng Zhenyu really felt like she was counting money until her hands were numb... "How about you go to a few more places to promote it?"

"Then let's wait until after National Day." Cheng Zhenyu added up the number of wine jars she had sold and roughly estimated how much she had earned today.

Her aphrodisiac and yang-boosting wine was the best seller, with 101 cans sold directly. The other various medicinal wines combined totaled 230 cans, and Xiao Mianhua also sold over 100 cans. This meant they had taken in nearly 8,000 yuan this morning.
