Chapter 209: Book in advance and pay in full

By twelve o'clock, all the items on the shelves had been cleared out. Even though Gu Xiaoxi secretly restocked the shelves twice, in the end, even the pots, bowls, and pans were gone.

"Why are pots, pans, and utensils selling so well today?" Qi Shuangshuang stopped to take a break and looked curiously at the queue where there were still many people queuing.

Gu Xiaoxi shook his head, "I don't know!"

Because Qi Shuangshuang and Li Kun had moved things to the tent in the back, and now the things there were empty, it was not convenient for her to "produce" things from the exchange mall.

So, she also sat down to rest at this moment.

Those in the queue who didn't buy anything looked at the empty shelves and felt very sad.

"Comrade, when will you restock?"

"I didn't come yesterday, and I didn't buy anything today!"

"Me too, if I had known I would have come earlier..."

"Do you want to go back and have a meal first and come back in the afternoon? Let's have a meal too." Qi Shuangshuang said with a smile.

"It's okay, you guys eat and we'll wait." The villagers who had already arrived had no intention of leaving.

Gu Xiaoxi looked at the 70 or 80 people still queuing, then turned to Qi Shuangshuang and said, "Shuangshuang, take a notebook and write down what they want. Collect the old items first, register the points first, and then write their names next to them. I'll make some food."

"Okay." Qi Shuangshuang immediately took a pen and paper and went to register one by one.

"Sister-in-law, let's put these old things we collected in the tent at the back." Lu Xiangqian was quick-witted and started cleaning up things immediately.

Li Kun and Zhuan Zi, who had just stopped to drink some water, hurried to help.

Gu Xiaoxi washed a large clay pot, smeared a thin layer of oil on the bottom of the pot, and then washed the rice to cook.

After Li Kun and the others left with their things, she quietly collected a wave of sundries and threw them into the second-hand goods warehouse, and then used flame combustion techniques to speed up the combustion and control the temperature.

After a while, she cut a piece of sausage and a piece of bacon, put them into the casserole, and then simmered them under strict temperature control.

During this process, she took another casserole, soaked two pieces of instant noodles, cut two sausages, and beat two eggs into it.

When she was done, she went to do some carpentry work.

This time, she made a desk.

Twelve minutes later, she took the casserole off the coal stove, put the casserole of instant noodles on it and cooked it for two minutes before taking it off again.

At this time, the aroma of clay pot rice and instant noodles had already wafted out, attracting many people to look over.

When Gu Xiaoxi was about to call Li Kun and the others to eat, Dai Keyu came running over at the exact moment.

"Hey, there are not only instant noodles for lunch, but also rice? I want one of each."

Gu Xiaoxi coughed lightly and said, "I only cooked one portion each."

"Haha, can you sell it to me first? We just did an emergency surgery and I'm so hungry that I need your blood sugar."

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at him and nodded even though she knew he was exaggerating.

"Okay! Since you've worked so hard, I'll sell it to you. You can choose which one you want. The instant noodles are two yuan portions, 2 yuan. The clay pot rice has meat in it, a lot of it, 3 yuan."

Dai Keyu opened the lids of two casseroles of different sizes and took a look. His eyes widened at the delicious smell.

"Yes, all of them!"

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at Qi Shuangshuang who was still registering, and finally agreed.

"Alright! Take them all away!"

"Great! Thank you!" Dai Keyu paid five yuan, immediately found a broken basket from the pile of debris on the ground, and left with the two casseroles.

When he left, he didn't forget to shout, "Bring the basket over to me when I'm done eating!"

Gu Xiaoxi didn't respond and found a large clay pot to make clay pot rice.

Just like before, I made two servings of instant noodles.

But just when the rice and noodles were ready, Dai Keyu ran away again.

"Well, Comrade Gu, I want two more."

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at him and said, "I'm not selling it anymore. I'm hungry. If you want to eat it tonight, make a reservation in advance and pay in full."

Dai Keyu scratched his head in embarrassment. "Then can we order a ten-dollar dinner tonight? Claypot rice or instant noodles, anything is fine. I'll eat with a few colleagues."

Gu Xiaoxi looked at him suspiciously, "Didn't you buy a lot of instant noodles this morning? If you want to eat some, you can make them yourself, which is more economical. The clay pot is also for you."

Dai Keyu coughed lightly and said, "My colleagues wanted some too, but they took them all. I wanted to buy some more, but it seems you guys are out of stock."

The shelves were empty at the moment. He wanted to buy something, but there was nothing there.

"New stock will arrive this afternoon. Come over in the evening and see if there's more."

"Okay, thank you!"

Although Dai Keyu didn't buy anything, he was very happy.

He felt that he was treated differently by Comrade Gu, as she actually took the initiative to tell him that new goods would arrive in the afternoon!

Gu Xiaoxi didn't think so. She just felt that Dai Keyu was willing to spend money, and she wanted to make some money, so she mentioned it casually.

After everyone left, she took a broom and used cleaning techniques to quickly clean the floor, then called Qi Shuangshuang, Li Kun and the others to have lunch.

Gu Xiaoxi herself had clay pot rice, and she had instant noodles because she was worried that there wouldn't be enough rice for Li Kun and the others. In addition, Qiaozi said in the morning that he had never eaten instant noodles before, so she cooked a pot for them.

After dinner, Gu Xiaoxi took a look at Qi Shuangshuang’s registration information and went back to his carpentry work.

Lu Jiansen came back only after she had finished making three sets of desks and chairs.

He first asked Li Kun, Zhuan Zi and Lu Xiangqian to move the things, and then gave his little girl a list of items.

Gu Xiaoxi glanced at the list, then raised his head suddenly, "There's another pig?"

Lu Jiansen smiled and nodded, "Yes. We just killed them this morning and brought the whole herd here. The village doesn't want any money, but said they want to exchange them for corresponding supplies and farm tools."

Gu Xiaoxi nodded quickly, "No problem. You haven't eaten yet, right?"

"I'll go help move the things first, and then we'll eat."

"Well! We'll do it later."

Gu Xiaoxi has already thought about it. After the pigs are moved over, he can make something else to eat.

After Lu Jiansen left, she immediately went to the tent at the back, and while Li Kun and the others had not yet moved their things in, she quickly put all the old items and sundries piled up inside into the old item and sundry warehouse.

When Li Kun and his group came over, she stood at the door and directed, "Send it directly to the front, and load the goods directly."

"Okay, sister-in-law." Li Kun quickly carried the things to the front.

Gu Xiaoxi also followed and helped Qi Shuangshuang to restock the shelves.

By the way, she can also use the cover of various boxes to secretly purchase things from the exchange mall and get more supplies.

Just for the new quilts, she used space compression techniques to compress the thick new quilts and put up fifty new quilts.

When the pork was carried over, Gu Xiaoxi took a look at it, and immediately bought a box of sweet potato vermicelli from the exchange mall, preparing to make pork liver vermicelli in the evening.

We lined up at noon, and when those who had registered saw the pork, their eyes lit up.

Without waiting for Gu Xiaoxi and the others' orders, those people had already taken the initiative to line up where the pork was placed.
