Chen Qiang was afraid that the mooncakes could not be made, so he ran back to inform Tian An as soon as he received the order.
The Cantonese mooncakes had been baked and the quantity was almost sufficient, so Tian An immediately took his people to start making snow skin mooncakes to meet the orders.
"Miss, there is not enough starch." Qiao Niang ran over and said.
"I remember there's still some in the warehouse, I'm afraid you missed it. Go take care of the other things first, and I'll look for them later."
After Tian An sent Qiao Niang away, he went to the warehouse alone. After making sure that no one was around, Tian An hid in a corner of the warehouse for safety reasons.
Then he took out the starch from the space and poured it into the bag he had just brought from outside. He took the starch out.
The assembly line work started up again, and everyone was so busy that they didn't even have time to eat, let alone cook. Dinner was cooked by Zhenniang after she came back from feeding the poultry.
"Mr. Han, I'm sorry. I can only make do with this meal today." Tian An said apologetically.
Han Xun shook his head: "Aren't we family? What's there to be sorry about? Besides, this dinner is not bad. I've also suffered a lot, so as long as I can eat my fill, there's no need to think specially about us."
Granny Qin also said, "Yes! An'an, just do what you need to do. You don't have to consider us too much."
After dinner, everyone came over to help. Zhao Yiming and Mr. Han, who couldn't do anything else, helped pack the mooncakes.
As for the saying that a gentleman should stay away from the kitchen, wait until you are so hungry that your mouth is watering and then you will see if you can cook. We are all people who have suffered hardships and do not have the arrogance of scholars.
Granny Qin's hand hadn't fully healed yet, so she helped with the simple things. Xiao Gou Dan, being small, poured tea for everyone. By the time the moon was high above the willows, they had finally finished making about two hundred gift boxes.
The next morning, Chen Qiang came to the shop again with 260 gift boxes and 20 pots of chrysanthemums.
After unloading the goods in the backyard, have someone carry the chrysanthemums out and put them on display first.
I didn't buy chrysanthemums in the store yesterday, so I ordered noodles early this morning and ate them while waiting. As soon as the chrysanthemums were put on the shelves, I didn't even have time to eat the noodles, and started to rush to buy them.
"Brother Zhang Qian, didn't you buy a pot yesterday? Why are you here to snatch it today?"
"Oh! Don't mention it. I took it home and it was gone before I could even warm it up."
"What do you mean?"
"My brother saw that my Qiuju was better looking than his, so he shamelessly asked for her."
"No way! I remember you said his pot of chrysanthemums was not cheap!"
"Of course not! I bought it in the capital and spent over 200 coins!"
Although the two were talking, they did not delay in grabbing the flowers. Each of them took a pot and went to the shopkeeper to pay.
They were talking loudly, and many people were listening! When they heard that the flowers sold in this shop were actually better than those sold in the capital, they couldn't sit still. Unfortunately, when they got up, there were no flowers on the flower stand!
So those who didn't buy flowers went to find the shopkeeper, who was Liu Hui, the accountant and shopkeeper.
Manager Liu had been in the store the whole time and he really didn't know the situation at home, so he hurriedly sent Wang Erdong to find the housekeeper Chen Qiang.
When Wang Erdong found Chen Qiang, he was sorting mooncakes. He was holding five boxes of mooncakes in his hands and forgot to put them down, so he hurried to the front desk.
As a result, as soon as I got to the front desk, before I could even say anything, the mooncakes in my hand were already taken away by the students around me. They all knew the price, so they counted the coins and put them on the cashier before returning to their seats with the mooncakes.
Chen Qiang and Liu Hui looked at each other in the eye.
Chen Qiang: "Aren't you asking about Chrysanthemum?"
Liu Hui: "You're asking about chrysanthemums!"
Chen Qiang added, "There should still be a few pots of chrysanthemums tomorrow."
After hearing what Chen Qiang said, the students standing by stopped asking Liu Hui and decided to go back earlier tomorrow.
Liu Hui also hurried to collect the copper coins on the table. There were so many people around, so be sure not to drop them!
A student returned to the table holding the mooncake gift box he had just snatched, and his classmates asked him why he hadn't left yet.
"I have to buy another box of mooncakes."
Classmate: "Why did you buy so many? These mooncakes are not cheap!"
"What can I do? My eldest sister-in-law's younger sister bought a box of Su Ji mooncakes in the capital city and brought it back to her parents' home as a festival gift. She kept giving my eldest sister-in-law the cold shoulder. My eldest brother couldn't stand my eldest sister-in-law being bullied, so he asked me to help him buy a box and bring it back to my eldest sister-in-law as a festival gift."
My classmate was surprised: "Are the mooncakes from this shop better than those from Su Ji in Fucheng?"
"They brought a few out for tasting yesterday. I tried one and it was delicious, and it looked exquisite too. It's perfect for a gift."
My classmates were puzzled: "Then one box is enough!"
"Master's family hasn't prepared the holiday gifts yet! We have to buy another box!"
My classmate was stunned: "I haven't prepared any yet! No, I have to go grab a box too."
After Chen Qiang returned to the backyard, he divided the mooncakes among the Gu, Qin, Peng and Boss Yu families, and subtracted the five boxes that had just been sold, leaving only 105 boxes.
After Wang Erdong carried the table to the door, he came back to get the mooncakes. However, before he even reached the table, all the mooncakes were snatched away.
The customers who grabbed the mooncakes went to the front desk to pay. Wang Erdong stood aside and watched until the number of mooncake gift boxes that had been paid for matched the number he had taken out before he went back to the backyard to get more mooncakes.
He could take seven or eight boxes at a time. Later, Chen Qiang joined him. The two of them ran back and forth five or six times and sold more than a hundred boxes of mooncakes.
The table at the door felt lonely! Wang Erdong shook his head and had to move the table back.
The mooncakes in the store were sold out, so Chen Qiang drove a ox cart to deliver mooncakes to each household personally.
After sending off the Qin and Gu families, it was time to go to the Peng family. When they got there, they happened to meet Peng Zhang at home.
After learning that Boss Yu had ordered the same mooncake gift box as himself, Chen Qiang insisted that Tian An must give him fifty more boxes or he would break off the relationship.
After delivering the mooncakes to Boss Yu, Chen Qiang hurried back to the store, ate a bowl of noodles, and then hurried back to the village. He had to tell Tian An about the situation in the store in time.
Tian An was amused when he heard Peng Zhang's request. He really was just a child. Well, for the sake of the two cows, let's satisfy him!
Tian An felt that her two cows had become thinner due to the large amount of milk she had used in the past two days. Later, it was not enough, so she secretly took out some from the space to make up for the shortfall.
Considering that Peng Zhang had provided great help this time, Tian An decided to invite him to his home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Peng Zhang was a man from outside the family, so he invited Zhao Yiming to write the post. After Tian An instructed the kitchen to continue making mooncakes, he went into the house to discuss it with him.
Zhao Yiming knew that Peng's family was in the capital, and he was still in Jinning County at the moment, and it was obvious that he had no intention of returning to the capital to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. After all, they were friends, and he couldn't just watch him celebrate the festival alone!
So when Tian Anyi said that, he picked up his pen and wrote the invitation letter without thinking.
