He never imagined that such a simple tea egg could taste so delicious.
After finishing one, Xiao Wu reached for another almost without thinking.
Lin Zhou felt very satisfied seeing him eat so heartily.
I turned around and poured him a glass of water, afraid he might choke.
After breakfast, it was getting late.
It's almost eight o'clock.
Lin Zhou picked out all the best-looking large tea eggs, put them in the insulated buckets provided by the stall, and then carried the two boxes of tea eggs to his stall.
The stall was still small this week, with only a stove on the counter, gas canisters under the cabinet, and storage space.
After placing the tea eggs, Lin Zhou rode his tricycle over to look at Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu understood immediately, and quickly rode his electric scooter to lead the way.
It was only at this point that Lin Zhou began to worry about the tasks ahead of him this week.
I glanced at the task interface again.
[This week's task: Go to Linshui Town and serve delicious and convenient tea eggs to passengers on the buses.]
(Target quantity: 1000 units. Suggested retail price: 20 yuan)
[Recipe: Secret Recipe for Tea Eggs has been released!]
[Task accepted, duration: one week.]
With no time limit, Lin Zhou planned to go and try selling in the morning.
People who eat tea eggs usually eat more in the morning.
Moreover, he doesn't plan to sell at the retail price suggested by the system, because he's afraid he won't be able to sell them.
If the task is not completed and the food is not spread, it will all be for nothing, and a week's work will be in vain.
Taking into account the cost, ten yuan each is about right.
......
It's quite rare to find places that still have these rural shuttle buses.
Only in remote and underdeveloped towns like Linshui can you still see them, and they probably won't last much longer.
Villagers usually take the bus to go to the town or county.
The streets are mostly filled with tricycles and electric bikes; there are very few private cars.
The wide road was not crowded with pedestrians, making it seem quite empty.
"Mr. Lin, there's a bus stop up ahead, shall we go and wait there?"
There's a bus stop nearby," Xiao Wu said, stopping his car and looking at Lin Zhou.
The two parked their car on the sidewalk and waited at the bus stop with their tea eggs.
When are buses usually available?
“In the past, a bus would pass by the town every 5 minutes on average, but now it takes about 30 minutes.”
Most of the people in the town have gone out to work, leaving few behind, and the number of bus services has gradually decreased.
But because it is one of the few means of transportation in the town, it has been preserved to this day.
Lin Zhou nodded, picked up the tea egg, and glanced at the time.
It was already eight o'clock. The two of them didn't have to wait long before they saw a dilapidated bus slowly approaching.
Lin Zhou's eyes lit up, and he almost couldn't wait to take a small step forward.
Tea eggs for sale! Tea eggs for sale!
The bus slowly arrived at the station, the doors opened, and the bus driver saw Xiao Wu outside the door and immediately greeted him warmly.
"Xiao Wu, is this the friend you mentioned who wants to start a small business?"
"Come on up, I'll stop for a few minutes."
Hearing the driver's loud voice, Xiao Wu, who hadn't even had a chance to get in the car and say hello, turned to Lin Zhou with an awkward smile.
He tried to be friendly with the bus drivers by saying that a friend of his wanted to stay in the town and start a small business.
I never expected the driver to say it so openly.
How awkward! And with the person in question right there, he can't immediately explain, otherwise he'll end up pleasing neither side.
"Ahem, well, yes, Uncle Ding, could you please do me a favor?"
Uncle Ding looked to be a man in his forties or fifties. There was a middle-aged woman sitting next to the car door, holding a wallet in her hand, presumably for receiving money.
Lin Zhou listened to their conversation without showing any expression.
Compared to big cities where everything is governed by rules, Lin Zhou, though he had never lived in such a small town, understood that it was a place where personal relationships mattered.
Xiao Wu has lived in the town for so long, and Huang Zhenghao must know a lot of people and be familiar with things in the town to have him as a guide.
Lin Zhou smiled and, under the gaze of everyone in the car, carried a box of tea eggs onto the bus.
Xiao Wu stayed by the car door and talked to Uncle Ding.
"Uncle Ding, thank you for your trouble. Here, this is the Huangshan cigarette you smoked. Hide it well, don't let my aunt find out."
Xiao Wu secretly took a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed it into Uncle Ding's pocket.
The two exchanged a glance, as if they had completed some kind of deal, and smiled with joy.
"Ahem, look at you, don't do it again next time, okay? I'll let it go this time, but..."
Before the two could finish speaking, they heard an excited voice coming from the back of the carriage.
"What? Ten yuan for a tea egg? Why don't you just rob someone on the street? That's a much faster way to make money!"
The old man in front of him stood up excitedly.
Their faces were flushed.
A tea egg that costs ten yuan?
The old man has taken this bus countless times and bought these tea eggs countless times.
Today it's just that they've changed the vendors.
What's going on? These tea eggs, which were originally quite expensive at two yuan each!
They've all increased fivefold?
Could this egg-laying hen be a golden hen?
The old man could not hide his excitement.
"Young man, how can you do business like this! You're so heartless!"
Lin Zhou felt somewhat helpless upon hearing this.
