Chapter 58 If you don't take advantage of an opportunity, you must be a fool
"Ahem." Tang Jing cleared his throat, pulled Tang Tian and said, "Tang Tian, go with Miss Xiao to look at the snacks so I can bring some home for my mother to try."
"It's obviously you..." I want to eat it!
Before Tang Tian could say anything, Tang Jing pulled her into the shop.
Tang Tian stepped on Tang Jing's foot, turned around and smiled at Xiao Jiuyue, "Sister Xiao, come in quickly."
Xiao Jiuyue pretended not to know Tang Jing's hostility, and she followed him in slowly!
In the teahouse.
"Tang Jing, how could you pull Miss Tang so rudely!" Gan Zongyong said excitedly, staring at Tang Jing's hand, as if he wanted to poke a hole in it.
"Let's go and take a look too." Gan Zongyong stood up and wanted to go over, but was pulled back by the servant, who said, "Master, you can't go! Madam..."
The servant only mentioned the word "Madam" and Gan Zongyong retracted his legs. His mother was in a bad mood recently because of the death of his second sister Gan Li. She scolded him and told him not to get into trouble. For this reason, he sneaked out today!
If my mother knew about this, she would probably scold me again.
In the backyard of the candy shop, when Xiao Jiuyue placed ten desserts on the stone table in the yard, Tang Tian was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. Those desserts placed there were so pleasing to the eye just by looking at them, let alone eating them.
Tang Tian fixed her eyes on the exquisitely arranged snacks and asked, "What is this flower-like thing?"
"Date Flower Crisp." This was Xiao Jiuyue's favorite. She said, "The outer layer is made of wheat flour and lard, and the middle is filled with red date paste."
"No, the jujube paste pastry I ate wasn't this good-looking!" Tang Tian had eaten jujube paste pastry before, but it was round like a bun.
"I specially made this look. Doesn't it look better this way?" Xiao Jiuyue specially asked the beautiful mother to make this look.
"It looks good." Tang Tian nodded repeatedly, picked up a jujube flower pastry, and looked at it again and again in her palm. The fragrance of the jujube paste kept drilling into her nose. She said, "Such a beautiful flower, I can't bear to eat it."
"You can try it and see if you like the taste." Xiao Jiuyue looked at her with a gleam in her eyes and thought, if she eats this, she will definitely want to eat it a second and third time.
The snacks made by the beautiful lady are different from others!
"Let me try it." Tang Tian took a bite. The sour and sweet taste, coupled with the crispy crust, was unforgettable. Not to mention, it looked so beautiful. Tang Tian stared at the small orange square again and asked, "What is this?"
"Orange jelly, I sprinkled a layer of powdered sugar on it." Xiao Jiuyue took a bamboo stick and handed it forward.
Tang Tian reluctantly took a bite of the leftover jujube flower pastry before trying the orange jelly. The soft and smooth texture was something she had never tasted before.
"Delicious!" Tang Tian said excitedly. She finished it in one bite and then took a second bite.
Xiao Jiuyue then introduced the third type, a soft candy made from orange peels...
After finishing the tenth dessert, Tang Tian was still not satisfied and said, "Sister Xiao, every one of them is delicious! They are all things I have never tasted before."
"So, do you think these ten kinds of dim sum can be sold?" Xiao Jiuyue looked at Tang Jing meaningfully. Didn't he just call her a liar?
"Yes, of course!" Tang Tian assured, patting her chest. "It's so delicious, I'm afraid everyone will rush to eat it!"
"This is the plan I wrote for the candy shop. You can take a look." Xiao Jiuyue handed over the event plan she had spent two nights writing. Tang Tian took it and looked over it carefully. Various questions popped up one by one: "Sister Xiao, what is a pre-deposit? What is a membership? And what about this lucky draw?"
Tang Tian asked like a curious baby. Tang Jing stood aside and didn't understand either. Could these new words only exist in Shengjing?
Xiao Jiuyue explained one by one, Tang Tian's eyes sparkled, and Tang Jing on the side was also stunned. Although he had not done it according to the instructions yet, he was sure that as long as he really did it according to the instructions, the people of Lancang County would definitely go crazy!
Deposit 300 coins and get 50 coins for free? You'd be a fool not to take advantage of this!
There is also a lucky draw that is even more amazing, the ultimate grand prize is fifty taels of silver!
Fifty taels of silver would take two years to earn even for a strong laborer.
Tang Jing asked aloud: "What if, at the beginning, the grand prize is taken away by someone else?" Fifty taels, how many snacks would he have to sell to earn it back?
"The second prize, third prize, and lucky prize are easy to deal with, but the grand prize was taken away all at once. Isn't that not worth it?" Tang Tian also asked.
"Then let's not take the grand prize away all at once." Xiao Jiuyue cleared her throat and said, "There are many ways to draw a lottery. When the time comes, we just need to control it to be drawn in the last two days of this prize, right?"
"Sister Xiao, I understand!" Tang Tian immediately became excited and said, "Let's put the grand prize in last!"
"Yes." Xiao Jiuyue nodded and reminded, "However, Miss Tang, there is one thing I must remind you of. This matter can only be known to our own people and must not be made known to the public."
"I understand, I understand." Tang Tian seemed to see money rushing in, and she said excitedly: "Tomorrow, tomorrow I will do it!"
She wished she could realize everything written on the paper.
"No." Xiao Jiuyue looked at her excited expression and poured a basin of cold water on her. He said, "If you do this tomorrow, what do you want to sell to others?"
Tang Tian, who was excited, immediately realized what was going on. She grinned and said, "Sister Xiao, I was stupid. We need to let the chef learn how to make all these snacks first, and then sell them!"
"Yes." Xiao Jiuyue nodded affirmatively and said, "Stock up on the goods and recruit staff to avoid being overwhelmed by the crowds that day."
"Sister Xiao, I will listen to you." Tang Tian looked at Tang Jing with a smug look on her face, as if saying: See, I told you, Sister Xiao didn't lie to me.
"Tiantian, I have something to do, so I'll go back first." Tang Jing was afraid that Xiao Jiuyue would see his previous prejudice, so he found an excuse and ran away.
"Second brother, didn't you say you had something to say to Sister Xiao?" Tang Tian shouted at his back.
Tang Jing walked even faster.
"Hmph." Tang Tian made a face at Tang Jing's back before saying, "Sister Xiao, I think 30% of the profit is a bit too little."
Tang Tian looked at the thick pages of paper and then at the snacks on the table. Sister Xiao really put a lot of thought into the candy shop. If she still couldn't make any money, it only meant that she was not suitable for business.
"Quite a bit. I'm only responsible for coming up with ideas. The rest of the work will be done by your people." Xiao Jiuyue clearly wanted to be a hands-off boss. She suddenly sat up straight, her face serious, and said, "Tiantian, I hope that our cooperation will be known only to heaven and earth, and only to you and me."
