Facing the diner's disdain, Qu Songsheng calmly replied, "Loach burrows into the mud every day, so isn't its meat still tender and delicious?"
“Lotus root is pure and untainted by mud, and when fried it becomes crisp and white.”
"Lobsters are also shrimps. What kind of shrimps and crabs don't live in muddy water?"
“If you want delicious food, you need to pay attention to the cooking method.”
"The lobster we cook at home has a unique taste in Huaicheng."
“You can smell it and know it’s fragrant and fresh.”
"Two pieces shouldn't be considered expensive. My large white porcelain plates weigh at least three pounds each."
"I'll also give you a glass of homemade soda from my shop."
“These are things you can’t eat or drink anywhere else.”
"I guarantee you'll have spicy food and cool drinks in the hot summer."
"Are you sure you don't want to try it?"
Attracted by the series of words Qu Songsheng said, and smelling it up close, the spicy and fragrant aroma of the lobster became even stronger.
Look at the color, it is also bright red and attractive.
The other party began to hesitate: "Do you have homemade drinks at home, or soda?"
Seeing this, Qu Manman winked.
Lin Wanxia immediately served a small plate of lobster and poured a glass of peach soda.
Shake the crushed ice inside.
He put the shrimps on a small table on the street and started peeling and eating them.
Everyone watched her gently sucking the juice from the shrimp shell, with an expression of surprise at the spiciness on her face.
Then he watched as the snow-white lobster tail meat was peeled out of the red shell and handed to Qu Manman.
The pretty little girl looked very satisfied while eating.
I took a sip of peach soda from time to time. Besides the fresh aroma of lobster meat, the air was also filled with the sweet smell of peaches...
Someone soon couldn't help it and took out two dollars and put them in front of Qu Songsheng.
"Okay, first give me a plate of spicy lobster and a glass of peach soda."
"By the way, are there any drinks besides peach soda?"
"Yes, we also have peach oolong tea, honeysuckle tea, watermelon mint tea, and watermelon shaved ice."
The customer was hearing so many different options for the first time. He hesitated for a moment and then chose: "What is shaved ice? Let's have a cup of watermelon shaved ice first!"
"Okay!"
Since this was the first time we introduced spicy lobster, we were worried that it wouldn’t attract many customers.
Qu Songsheng specially moved the stove out to cook in the street.
Also, Qu Manman said that lobster is suitable for eating at night as a midnight snack.
A batch of tables and chairs were specially customized and placed on the street.
We are worried about everything going on inside and outside the store, and it is too difficult for just the two of us to take care of it.
Jiang Dazhu and Li Yueying were called in to help.
The couple were busy in an orderly manner, one helping to serve lobsters and the other serving drinks.
If one person starts eating something delicious, it will attract the attention of more people.
I watched as the first customer who ordered grabbed a steaming lobster, looked at it, and then sucked the juice and peeled the shell just like Lin Wanxia did.
As soon as the flesh goes down your throat, you'll immediately be amazed by the taste.
He also praised it repeatedly: "It's delicious, wow, lobster is so delicious when cooked like this..."
Someone else immediately couldn't help but say, "Give me a plate of lobster, too."
"I want one too..."
That evening, the entrance of Manman Snack Shop was bustling from 7pm to 10pm.
The shouts of various diners echoed one after another: "Give me a plate of lobster."
"I want a plate of lobster."
“Another plate of lobster!”
"I want a cup of peach oolong tea."
"I want peach soda—"
"I want watermelon shaved ice."
Some people even shouted: "I want beer, ice cold, do you have any..."
Not only were the six tables temporarily set up at the door full.
Even the restaurant was packed with diners.
There are still diners queuing.
Qu Songsheng's charcoal stove basically never stopped burning, and the bellows blew the flames wildly.
There was a constant stream of roasted crayfish in the street.
I went to the countryside to buy more than 200 kilograms of crayfish, and they were all sold out in one night.
In the end there wasn't enough to eat.
Some diners even reminded before leaving: "Brother, please buy more shrimp tomorrow. I will bring my friends over to eat tomorrow."
"Okay, okay, I definitely will."
See off the last guest.
Qu Songsheng sat down and drank a big bowl of boiled water.
Then, looking at the mess inside and outside his store, he couldn't help laughing.
I made money, really made money.
Seeing that business is good, Jiang Dazhu and his wife are also very happy.
He came over and asked with concern, "Songsheng, you just started selling it and it's 20% off and you're giving away free drinks."
“Isn’t the discount too big?”
"I see that your drink not only contains fruit tea, but also rock sugar, honey, and other things."
“The cost must be very high!”
"Don't just do it for publicity, you won't make any money!"
How can you not make money!
Although the first drink is free, subsequent drinks cost 20 cents each!
Moreover, 80% of the beverage is water, and a little bit of it can make a large cup of jam, sugar juice, boiled tea leaves, etc.
Lobsters are even cheaper, with the purchase price in the countryside being only two cents per pound.
Two cents per pound, as cheap as radish and cabbage.
Even if a pound of lobster is cooked and only 70 or 80 grams are left, and then a plate of 3 pounds is sold for two yuan, it will still cost one yuan and 60 cents after a 20% discount.
The cost of crayfish here is at most one cent, so how much do the oil, salt and seasonings cost?
It is estimated that artificial hydropower will be removed.
The net profit is also many times higher!
Qu Manman has already calculated the family's income for tonight:
[Tonight, we sold over 380 drinks, 76 of which were free.]
