Since it was confirmed that he had been cheated on, Luo Dazhuang has calmed down a lot. He weighed the braised meat one by one and found that it was a little bit higher than what Su Xiaoxiao had said.

Su Ergou patted his chest and said, "We will never be short of weight!"

"What price do you plan to sell it at?" Luo Dazhuang asked.

"30 cents for the big piece of meat, and 40 cents for the rest."

Luo Dazhuang was surprised: "No way? You're selling pig offal so expensively?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Things are valuable because they are rare. My recipe and taste are worth the price!"

"Well, don't blame me if you can't sell it."

It would be strange if anyone would buy such expensive pig offal.

Jin Ji.

Shopkeeper Sun also arrived early today and is now tasting freshly baked dim sum in a private room with several chefs.

"How is it?" asked Manager Sun.

Several chefs looked at each other and shook their heads.

The taste is wrong.

"It's too sweet." said a cook named Li.

He is a senior chef at Jin Kee and has been working there for more than ten years. His cooking skills are considered to be quite good.

"Why is it sweet again?" Shopkeeper Sun frowned. "The previous pot was bland, but this one is sweet again. It's just... it's not right, right?"

Chef Li said, "I can taste what ingredients she used, but I just can't make it taste like wife cake."

Chef Wang said, "The cooking time and the ratio of ingredients are also very important. Sometimes a slight difference can lead to a huge mistake. Isn't it true that many people have been scrambling to imitate our dim sum, but they can't make it taste like ours?"

The rest of the people nodded.

Shopkeeper Sun said unhappily, "The problem now is that someone has made it! And it tastes better than Jinji's! Didn't you hear what the customers said?"

"She shouldn't have imitated our shortbread..."

A new cook said weakly.

"How come it's not?" Shopkeeper Sun glared at him.

The new cook didn't dare say a word.

"She must have improved our recipe," said another cook named Liu.

Shopkeeper Sun said coldly, "She can improve herself, but you can't? A few grown men can't beat a little village girl. If this gets out, how can we at Jinji put our reputation aside?"

After all, Jin Kee is a time-honored brand, so it is not likely that the influence of the wife cake will be too great. After all, the little fat village girl only sells a few of them a day.

But it's not true to say that there is no impact at all. He has heard customers say more than once that their shortbread is not as delicious as wife cakes.

This is a great shame and humiliation! "How about... we chase her away?" Chef Liu suggested.

"Do you think I don't want to chase you away?" Shopkeeper Sun rolled his eyes.

"She saved our Jinji customers. If you chase her away now, what will the customers think? Besides, she wasn't placed at the main entrance of Jinji. She wasn't blocking the road and didn't affect the customers. What excuse do you have to chase her away?"

Although Manager Sun is a bit cunning, he has some business acumen. He knows the importance of the store's image and will never do anything to ruin his reputation.

"You guys continue to work on the formula, I'll think about it." - There was a long queue at the door of Jin Ji as usual, but soon, an incredible scene happened.

As soon as Su Xiaoxiao put out her wife cakes, many customers who were queuing at Jin Ji moved in front of her.

So a small long queue also formed here.

It is certainly incomparable with Jin Kee, but for a hawker who dares to sell dim sum in front of Jin Kee, it is a rare and unique spectacle.

"Girl! Do you have any chestnuts today? I didn't have any yesterday!"

A young man in the team poked his head out and asked.

"Yes." Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile.

Xiao Wu went back to her parents' home and stuffed the copper coins given by Su Xiaoxiao into her mother's pocket. Her mother knew that she was having a hard time in her husband's family and refused to take them no matter what. However, she couldn't persuade Xiao Wu, so she let her bring the chestnuts back home.

"I want to eat chestnuts too!" said a little boy.

"Buy it, I'll buy it for you!" an old lady said lovingly. Then she thought of something and asked Su Xiaoxiao, "They won't be sold out by the time we get there, will they?"

Twenty red beans, twenty mung beans, and twenty pickled plums.

Still one hundred.

The grandparents and grandchildren bought the chestnut-filled one as they wished.

Chestnut-filled shortbread is a test of cooking skills. Although it is naturally sweet, it is necessary to add sugar. If you add too much sugar, it will easily cover up its own flavor and make it taste not much different from other sweet fillings.

Su Xiaoxiao got it just right, perfectly preserving the aroma and sweetness of the chestnuts. It tastes powdery and sticky, with a hint of oiliness from the crispy skin, sweet but not greasy.

"Milk, it's delicious!" said the little boy.

The other guests also praised the wife cake with chestnut filling.

The one hundred were sold out quickly.

Su Ergou muttered: "Sister, I..."

He hasn’t even eaten a few!

Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing: "I brought it to you."

She had other tasks today and couldn't get back to cook at noon, so she brought some food for herself and Ergou, and also left some for Old Man Su and the others.

Su Ergou began to rummage in his sister's backpack.

This feeling... a little bit of happiness, what's going on?

In the past, Su Ergou always gave in to his sister, making people forget that he was also a child who needed love.

Su Ergou successfully found a bowl of wife cakes.

"Sister, you eat too."

"I'm losing weight, you eat it."

"oh."

Su Ergou stuffed the biscuit into his mouth.

After packing up, Su Xiaoxiao planned to leave.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Sun came over leisurely.

He put his hands behind his back and looked like he was strolling leisurely: "Are you sold out?"

Su Xiaoxiao was sure he was talking to her, so she hummed indifferently, "Sold out."

Shopkeeper Sun said with a fake smile: "You guys...always sell things near Jinji, aren't you stealing business?"

Su Xiaoxiao said: "If two country folks like us can also snatch away your Jinji's business, then your Jinji's business is too easy to snatch away."

This is a slap in the face, isn't it? Shopkeeper Sun coughed a few times and said, "I see that you are a little girl, young, and it is not easy to make a living with your brother. The weather will get colder in the future. Can you open the stall even if it snows heavily? In this case, why don't you sell the cakes to Jinji?"

"Oh?" Su Xiaoxiao looked at him with a little surprise.

Shopkeeper Sun raised his chin and said, "You sell them for ten cents each, but I see your cakes are only worth three or two cents. Jin Ji will sell them for five cents, 200 a day!"

Su Xiaoxiao took Su Ergou and left without looking back.

Shopkeeper Sun: “…”

He was ignored by a girl? !

He stamped his feet in anger.

"Six coins! Six coins will do, right?"

"Seven, seven coins! No more!"

"Hey - you can't sell it for ten cents, can you?"

People are walking further and further away.

Shopkeeper Sun made up his mind! "Why don't you name a price? I can even sell you the formula!"

Good morning
