Chapter 169 She has to go and find out for herself!
A big customer came to Xu Zhiyi's place, he was the guy who bought twelve yesterday.
"Girl, give me three of each flavor. I brought them back to the mansion yesterday and everyone liked them very much. Now, they asked me to help buy some more."
Xu Zhiyi smiled when he heard this and said, "Thank you so much, little brother!"
There are six flavors in total: citrus, hawthorn, mung bean, red bean, original flavor, and pear seed, making a total of eighteen.
"It's seventy-two coins in total. Since you bought so much, just give me seventy coins!"
"No need, this is just a small business, you should get what you deserve. Besides, I'm buying this for someone else, they've given me enough money."
Xu Zhiyi: "Okay, you're welcome to visit again."
Fifteen minutes later, more and more people started to appear on the street, and the noodle stalls nearby began to be filled with people.
Two women passed by the stall and came back after a while.
Xu Zhiyi couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he stood up and shouted, "Would you two girls like to come over and take a look at the bowl cake? It's soft and chewy, and there are many flavors. It has an exclusive secret recipe, and it's four cents each."
After hearing Xu Zhiyi's words, the two of them walked closer, and when they saw the pastries on the table, they liked them immediately.
“I want one of each flavor.”
"Me too"
Xu Zhiyi: "Girl, your cakes are packed, 24 cents a portion"
The people passing by were just curious and looked at them, but they looked so beautiful that they couldn't help but buy two.
The three of them finally reached the peak moment, because an uncle bought two and started eating them right away. People passing by saw that he seemed to enjoy the food so they all came over.
Xu Zhiyi saw this and took the opportunity to shout: "Bo Zai Gao! Soft and sticky Bo Zai Gao! Only four cents each, there are not many, first come first served, come and buy it if you want."
Everyone heard Xu Zhiyi's shout, and since there were indeed five or six people surrounding her stall, they decided to go and see what bowl cake was, whether they wanted to buy it or not, as they had never heard of it.
There were too many people, and they were all crowded. The table was small, and the cashier was in a mess. Xu Zhiyi quickly waved his hand and signaled: "Everyone, please don't squeeze. Please line up. This way, everyone doesn't have to squeeze. It's convenient for you to choose after lining up."
Upon hearing this, everyone rushed to seize the opportunity, hoping to get ahead.
Other people in the distance were queuing up here.
"Hey, what's going on over there?"
"I don't know! They're all lining up."
"Oh, I know. It seems to be selling some kind of bowl cake. I have never heard of it. I don't know if it tastes good."
"It should be delicious, right? If it's not delicious, why would so many people line up?"
"Yeah! Let's go buy one and try it."
Xu Zhiyi and the other two were busy all the time until they had sold out the ones on the table, and then took out fifty cups from two baskets, Shen Wuyou took them out of the molds, Shen Changan packed them, and Xu Zhiyi counted the silver and changed the copper coins.
An hour later, they were almost sold out! Only twelve were left.
"Wuyou, Chang'an, let's close the stall! We can take these twelve back home to eat. It's already past noon, and no one should come to buy them."
The three of them packed all their things onto the mule cart. Just as they were about to get on the cart, an old lady hurried over.
"Oops, I'm late? Weren't we still waiting in line just now?"
Xu Zhiyi: "Auntie, we have closed our stall and are about to leave. Do you want to buy some bowl cake? I still have some left."
"Hey, I just saw a lot of people lining up. I live in the alley in front, so I thought it would be a good idea to take my things home and then come over."
"Auntie, it's just right. If you were a little later, we would all be gone! I can buy as many as you want."
"Give me six. There are many children in my family, so one is just right for each of them."
"Auntie, you are the last customer, so I will give you one more."
Upon hearing this, the old lady burst into laughter and said, "Oh, thank you so much. I will go back and tell the neighbors to help you spread the word."
After collecting the copper coins and watching the old lady leave, the three of them drove the mule cart back home.
At this time, everyone at home began to worry. Why didn't he come back after noon today? Did something happen in the town?
It was not until they heard some noise at the gate that everyone came out. When they saw that the three people were fine, they relaxed.
Su: "Why are you so late today?"
Xu Zhiyi: "We didn't sell many this morning. We didn't get busy until almost noon, so we were a little late. Business is pretty good today. We only have five left out of the 150."
When everyone heard this, the corners of their mouths visibly curled up.
Old Lady Su: "You three are such a jerk. Well, we have a mule cart, so it's convenient. If it's almost noon and there are still a lot of unsold items, you can ask one of you to come back and bring lunch over."
When Su heard this, her eyes lit up: "Yes! Why didn't I think of that, Zhiyi, buy a lunch box in town tomorrow."
Xu Zhiyi: "Okay, I'll buy it tomorrow"
Qin: "Everyone, stop chatting! The hot food in the pot will get cold! There's no burning charcoal under the stove!"
After dinner, Xu Zhiyi went back to his room to keep accounts. He sold 144 pieces today for a total of 576 coins, with a cost of 288 and a profit of 288.
Oh! Today is not bad. I can make this much every day, which means I can make nearly nine taels of silver in profit every month!
After putting the copper coins into the space, he went to the window of the next room, squatted down and looked at the eagle. Its wound had completely healed.
"Little guy, I'm letting you go home today."
Then he carried it out to the yard and threw it into the air: "Go back!"
The eagle was thrown suddenly and almost couldn't react. Fortunately, it spread its wings, but it didn't fly away and kept circling above Xu Zhiyi's head.
Xu Zhiyi raised his head and looked at the eagle that was reluctant to fly away. He couldn't help but point at it and said, "Hey, you're not going to shit on my head, are you?"
"That's too much! You can't hold a grudge like that. When I said I wanted to braise you that day, I was joking!"
"You better leave now! If you have an owner, go find him. If not, if you don't mind not being able to eat meat every day, I will support you!"
"When I become rich, I can still satisfy you with meat."
The eagle circled and listened to Xu Zhiyi's words. When it saw that she had nothing to say, it flew high into the sky, flew far away, turned around and looked back, and finally flew away!
At this time, Mrs. Wu of the Wu Mansion, when she heard that Xu Yunyue had encountered such a dangerous thing today and then heard that she had gone to the clinic, her heart skipped a beat.
"Qiu Ling, is there anything wrong with Xu Yunyue after she came back?"
Qiu Ling thought about it carefully and replied, "No! It's just that the master went to her yard and sat for a while, coaxed her a few words and left."
Mrs. Wu thought about it and was still worried. She had to go and check it out herself. This matter had to succeed and not fail.
"Qiuping, go to the storeroom and get some supplements. Come with me to Magnolia Pavilion."
"Yes, ma'am."
