"Yes, yes, yes..."
Liang Guiying put the lid on the soup pot and put Zhou Xiaonian down.
The sun was really strong. Even though Liang Guiying was under the shade of the tree the whole time, she was still covered in sweat after all that work. Plus, she was carrying Zhou Xiaonian, who was like a little furnace on her back. Her clothes were completely soaked and her hair was almost dripping wet.
The little girl's chest was also covered in sweat, and her face was flushed red, but as soon as she got off the ground, she happily spun around.
Before Liang Guiying was reborn and returned, the little girl was kept in her room by her fourth grandmother most of the time and could not go out. Now she can come out to play almost every day.
For a child, whether there are several suns in the sky or it's raining knives, as long as she can come out, she's content.
Liang Guiying wiped her sweat and felt very guilty looking at her flushed face.
If she had more money, she would have opened a private ice cream parlor instead of making Niannian suffer with her.
After a while, the workers had mostly dispersed, and Chen Ping came over: "I didn't lie to you, did I? Everyone said your iced drinks would definitely sell well, but where did you learn your 'buy two bowls, get one free' strategy? Seven cents a bowl is a bit expensive, but it sounds cheap to me."
Liang Guiying smiled and said, "I was actually afraid that if I said it would cost seven cents, people would think it was too high. But I don't know why, I got anxious and the words just came out... Ah Ping, your business is doing well too."
Chen Ping is opposite Liang Guiying. She sells bowl-shaped rice cakes. She sold half of them at noon today, and then sold the rest during the afternoon working hours. Usually, she can sell them all. She goes back in the afternoon to make another batch, which can also be sold out in the afternoon and evening.
She and Liang Guiying were not selling the same kind of products, so there was no competition between them. Liang Guiying's arrival did not affect her sales; on the contrary, she sold more than a dozen more bowls than yesterday.
Across the street was a vendor selling locust flower herbal jelly, also a refreshing summer treat. They were barely competitors with Liang Guiying, but when he counted the sales, he found that they had sold more than twenty bowls more than yesterday.
The other vendors also found it strange after taking their orders. Had the workers been paid today? Otherwise, how could they explain selling twenty or thirty more bowls than usual?
Liang Guiying was unaware of the sales situation of others; she wasn't a particularly curious person to begin with.
After catching her breath, Liang Guiying packed up her stall.
When she passed by the market, she bought another bucket.
I quickly made a bottle of milk for the little girl when I got back, and after she finished drinking it, I quickly changed her into some dry clothes and carried her to bed.
The fan was blowing loudly, and the little girl quickly fell asleep. Liang Guiying was also drowsy, but she couldn't; she still had to make two large buckets of iced drinks!
The process of processing the yellow peel is complicated and time is tight, so Liang Guiying has to race against time.
The little girl woke up around four o'clock. By then, Liang Guiying had already finished processing the fruit pulp, added sugar water, and let it sit. Then she took the little girl to the department store at the entrance to buy ice.
Aunt Zhong resolutely refused to accept the money, but Liang Guiying insisted on giving it to her: "If you don't accept the money, I'll have to go to the icehouse to buy it, but I need a small amount, and they might not sell it to me."
Aunt Zhong had no choice but to take the money. She then asked about the sales of the drinks and was somewhat surprised to hear that the woman was going to buy two buckets that afternoon: "Are they really selling that well?"
"We're just selling something new today. We'll know if it sells well in three days."
“Zhou Yue is a sensible and hardworking girl. She will definitely be able to join the army. She will receive a monthly allowance, which will be enough for you and your granddaughter to eat and drink. Don’t push yourself too hard.”
"good."
Liang Guiying initially bought bucket number 1, which had a capacity of about 60 liters. It sold out in an hour, and after deducting costs, she made a profit of 7 yuan.
When she came back at noon, she bought a No. 2 bucket, which has a capacity of 100 liters. It sold out in an hour, and she made a net profit of 13 yuan.
The next day, she made two buckets in the morning and afternoon, and both sold out within an hour of setting up her stall, making a net profit of 40 yuan.
Three days later, the hype died down, and they could only sell two barrels a day, making a net profit of 20 yuan.
This situation persisted for ten days, but on the eleventh day, it suddenly changed.
