The Mid-Autumn Festival has passed, and the store's sales have returned to normal. Ah Xiang and her team stock up on goods about once a month, with little change in quantity, but the variety changes with the seasons.
Aside from monthly settlements, Yu Yin hardly worried about business matters; she was also very focused on her studies.
"Yu Yin, why did you only buy steamed buns? Aren't you going to choke if you eat them dry?"
Lunch at the cafeteria was always the same, consistently bland and predictable. Going off-campus was a bit of a hassle, and it was too cold.
"I brought some fried chicken mushrooms. They're so delicious with steamed buns, you should try them." Yu Yin took out a jar filled with oily, golden chicken mushrooms that looked so appetizing.
"Sis, with so little oil, anything will taste good in it. You're really generous with the amount!"
Zheng Yue complained, but that didn't stop her from eating; she ate quite a lot.
"Little Sister Yang, over here."
Yu Yin was too lazy to talk to her, and when she saw Yang Xiaomei looking for a seat, she called her over.
"I only asked the professor a question and came out a little late. I didn't expect there to be so many people."
"You should be glad that there are now several snack shops and street vendors outside, otherwise..."
Even while eating, Zheng Yue couldn't shut up; she would seize any opportunity to say a few words before continuing to eat.
"Little sister, try this, I made fried chicken with mushrooms." Yu Yin gestured for Yang Xiaomei to pick it up herself.
"This is delicious! Is this the legendary oil-fried chicken mushroom?"
Don't you have termite mushrooms where you live?
Yu Yin remembered that there were chicken-of-the-woods mushrooms in Sichuan; she had seen them in videos before.
Sigh, she's almost forgotten what a cell phone looks like!
"Yes, but not many. Whether you can find any depends on luck. Even if you do find termite mushrooms, nobody does it that way; it's too wasteful of oil!"
"Yu Yin, you've been back for so long, and you still have friends sending you local specialties. What a true friend!"
Zheng Yue and Yu Yin were quite familiar with each other, and Zheng Yue knew that Yu Yin had lived in Yunnan Province for many years.
"Yes, they are true friends!"
"I recently opened a small shop selling Yunnan specialties; I can find most of the products from Yunnan."
"Crack... Bang..."
Zheng Yue dropped her chopsticks, and Yang Xiaomei kicked the table leg.
When did this happen?
"It was set up during the summer vacation, and it's only been open for a few days."
Yu Yin waved her hand in front of Zheng Yue's eyes. The two sisters were extremely surprised and were a little stunned.
"I'm truly impressed, sis. While everyone else is still debating whether the policy will change, you're already close to the finish line!"
Are there many buyers?
Yang Xiaomei hesitated before asking the question; she hadn't expected her classmate to open a shop and start a business.
"good."
"I'm off this week, I want to go and see where it's located?"
Zheng Yue was so curious that she had to go and see.
"Welcome! I'll visit sometime, little sister. Yunnan Province has some very unique things to offer!"
“Yes, I want to go.” Even a child buried in books was intrigued.
"Zheng Yue, take the rest of the termite mushrooms back to your dorm. You and your little sister can have them as a side dish with rice."
"Okay, thank you, sister!"
"Come on."
The three of them got along well, walking and talking about the specialties of their respective hometowns, and reminiscing about them.
On their day off, Zheng Yue and Yang Xiaomei arrived at Yu Yin's house early.
"Hello, Auntie, please come in."
An'an recognized Zheng Yue and greeted her politely.
"Hello An'an, this is a gift for you. Share it with your brothers."
An'an glanced at her mother, then took it, saying, "Thank you, Auntie!"
"Yu Yin, your children are so wonderful!"
"That's good!"
After Yu Yin and Lu Shurui finished speaking, the three of them went straight out of the courtyard and headed into the shop.
"That's the one that's most eye-catching up to you," Yu Yin pointed ahead.
"I saw it! It's so distinctive!"
"Um!"
The three entered the store; it was early in the morning, and there weren't many people there.
Welcome!
Huang Shan's friendly voice startled Zheng Yue and Yang Xiaomei. Why was someone there to greet them?
"Ah! Sister Yu is here!"
Huang Shan looked up and was quite surprised to see Yu Yin.
"I'm taking my friend for a walk, you guys do your thing."
"knew."
Huang Shan attended to other customers and stopped paying attention to Yu Yin and the others.
Zheng Yue and Yang Xiaomei were drawn to this different shop—the unique environment, the friendly sales staff, and the neatly arranged, dazzling array of goods…
"Feel free to look around, there's more on the second floor."
"Okay, you go ahead and do your work. My sister and I will look after things ourselves and come find you later."
Zheng Yue waved her hand, telling Yu Yin to get on with her work.
Yu Yin really had something to do, so she ignored the two of them and went upstairs to find Liang Chao.
"Brother Liang."
"Yu Yin, you're here. I have something to tell you."
The two entered the office.
"I received a telegram from Ah Xiang yesterday. Fruit will be arriving gradually before the New Year. I was thinking, should I buy some thicker items to protect it from the cold?"
"It doesn't need to be too thick. When it arrives, the fruit baskets will be covered with a layer of straw, which is very warm. We just need to prepare some felt or something similar for warmth in our warehouse."
"Then I'll go to the flea market tomorrow and see if there's anything useful."
Yu Yin thought it was a good idea. "Okay, keep an eye on it, it has to be clean."
"clear."
After finishing their business and reviewing the accounts, Yu Yin went to find Zheng Yue and the other woman.
"Well, have you finished watching? I'll treat you two to dinner."
Yu Yin, carrying the dried fruit she had just bought, greeted her two classmates who were staring in amazement.
Yu Yin stipulated that everyone who came had to pay to take the items, including herself.
"We've finished watching, let's go."
The group went to a nearby wonton shop. Yu Yin ordered a bowl of wontons and two side dishes for herself.
