Lin Jinyue was also afraid of them, so she only said that she would treat them to ice cream when the business opened tomorrow.

These people then gave up.

When Lin Shucheng's dishes were served, each one looked and smelled delicious.

They also said, "If you open a restaurant directly, it will definitely surpass Ruyi Restaurant, which is the most popular restaurant in the city."

Lin Jinyue just smiled and said, "We don't have enough manpower right now, so we have to wait."

Upon hearing that there was more to come, these gourmands showered her with compliments as if they were free.

After those people left, everyone in the village gathered around.

The aroma is so enticing, it's enough to make anyone's mouth water.

Moreover, they never expected that Lin Jinyue would have such great skills. Even wealthy people who had seen the world praised the dishes her father made.

Seeing that quite a few people had arrived, Lin Jinyue said, "Perfect timing, you're all here. The shop opens tomorrow, and we need manpower, but it can't be the same as we agreed before..."

Lin Jinyue also wanted to help everyone make money as much as possible.

Let's all make money together.

In that case, the men in those snail businesses would no longer be able to run the ice-making business.

It's completely pointless for everyone.

Lin Jinyue selected five men and two women to go with her.

Five men are strong and can do everything from carrying water to chopping wood. When they make ice, they will need to keep boiling water to reuse saltpeter.

The other two women were making takoyaki (octopus balls).

Making takoyaki isn't actually that difficult; you just have to be careful. When squeezing out the batter, you can't be too careless and squeeze it outside the lines.

Only when the takoyaki are perfectly round will the diners be satisfied.

As for crab roe powder...

There are far too few crabs now; let's wait until she starts artificially breeding them.

The crabs that Fatty Chen sold her weren't even enough to fill a gap between her teeth.

That evening, Lin Jinyue was as busy as a spinning top.

I had to teach people how to make takoyaki, how to make ice, and also prevent them from making mistakes and getting into danger.

The next morning, Lin Jinyue arrived at the newly purchased shop with her entourage.

Thankfully the kitchen is big, otherwise there wouldn't be enough room for several people to stand in front.

Several men took turns going to the woods outside the city to cut down trees and chop firewood, while two men stayed at the shop, one to make ice and the other to make juice.

It's a pity that Lin Jinyue didn't study electrical appliances like generators and juicers in her previous life.

Even semi-automation can save a lot of manpower.

Lin Jinyue had the newly made signboard hung up: Yunheji Snack Shop.

That's right, Lin Jinyue plans to turn this cold drink shop into a place that sells all kinds of snacks.

In my past life, the milk tea shops next to my school would sell fried chicken snacks along with their drinks, and they did very well.

Once she has enough funds, Lin Jinyue plans to open a restaurant and a hotel.

No rush, take your time.

Besides, there's no point in rushing it.

I don't know what the situation is like outside Lingnan now. Her farm needs to be upgraded as soon as possible. The villagers should just focus on farming and working.

As soon as the shop opened, a lot of people gathered around it.

Especially those few people who sneaked over yesterday, they're all waiting for today's new products.

Inside, takoyaki was being made. Lin Jinyue used oil paper to make bags to hold the takoyaki, with eight pieces in each bag. The takoyaki was made with high-quality ingredients, and the octopus was freshly caught.

Lin Jinyue didn't pay a low price either, thirty-five coins a bag, considering that the price of flour changes every day these days.

Takoyaki is soft and bouncy, and you can choose your own sauce, whether it's sweet or savory.

"Oh my, the young shopkeeper is still so honest. The food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. Do you have any new tricks up your sleeve?"

"I'm telling you, you haven't even had a few bites yet, and you're already thinking about new things."

Lin Jinyue looked at the group of people with a smile.

I asked if she had any new dishes, because I went to her village yesterday specifically to ask her to cook for me.

After eating cold-cooked rabbit and spicy diced chicken, I bet they're still thinking about it.

Lin Jinyue thought about the rabbits that would soon be overrunning the space, and realized that after a while, she could make cold-cooked rabbit.

That's right, she couldn't find a suitable reason to share the rabbits.

Moreover, rabbit hutches are difficult to make; they need to be made with cement floors.

She should just use those rabbits in her online space to make cold-served rabbit.

Lin Jinyue was dreaming and imagining the future.

She heard a very annoying sound:

"Wow, you've opened a shop already?"

Lin Jinyue looked up and saw Xie Hong, who had a contemptuous look on his face that looked incredibly irritating.

Lin Shucheng quickly went up to greet him and said nice things. He had been in the business world for a long time and his way of speaking was quite tactful. In short, he wouldn't be able to shut someone up like Lin Jinyue.

Xie Hong, however, was not buying it.

He scoffed, looking at the people queuing to buy food, and asked, "Don't you know that his family makes a lot of fertilizer? It smells awful, and it's all fermented excrement. They use excrement to make fertilizer and then use that to make food for you. Can you really stomach it?"

The diners inside looked as if they had swallowed a fly.

It's not that I'm disgusted by Lin Jinyue and the others.

These people are hygienic. Even the young wives selling snails know to wear masks and head coverings, and they wash their hands after receiving coins.

It was said that Manager Lin made this request.

They weren't worried at all that the food Lin Jinyue was selling wasn't healthy.

But why bring up that stinky fertilizer while people are eating?

Are you trying to kill us with this?

Unfortunately, the person who said this was General Xie, a fifth-rank general, whom they couldn't afford to offend.

Lin Jinyue just thought this person was extremely annoying.

She peeked her head out from behind her father and asked very seriously, "General Xie, do you eat with your hands after you wipe your bottom after you poop?"

According to Xie Hong's logic, if you can't make fertilizer, then you might as well chop off your hand after using the toilet.

Xie Hong's smug expression vanished instantly.

Lin Jinyue continued, "Even if you have a servant to wipe your butt, doesn't that servant also serve you food and bring you dishes?"

"Pfft—"

Someone chuckled.

Xie Hong looked at Lin Jinyue with a livid face and said, "How can you be so vulgar, girl?"

Lin Shucheng lost his temper.

You can scold him, but you can't scold your daughter.

Lin Shucheng gave a forced smile, "What's wrong with my daughter? Look at you, she talks about poop and pee all the time while eating, don't you think you're vulgar?"

"A scion of a noble family, supposedly well-versed in the classics..." That's all gone to waste.

Lin Jinyue quickly stood on a stool, tiptoed, and covered her father's mouth.

Please stop talking.

General Gu is not here today!

Lin Jinyue's face turned cold: "General Xie, our temple is too small to accommodate such a great Buddha as you. From now on, we will not do business with you."

Xie Hong flicked his sleeves and left.

He felt nauseous thinking about eating with his hands that had been used to wipe his bottom.

As he left, he cursed, "What bad luck!"

Xie Hong felt that he was naturally incompatible with Lin Jinyue, and nothing good ever came of it whenever he saw this unlucky woman.

After he left, the people in the shop looked at Lin Jinyue with nothing but admiration.

This young lady really dares to speak her mind!
