Afterwards, Su An picked and chose among the vegetable stalls and finally made a long-term order with an old vegetable farmer, paying a total of 60 coins for 30 catties of green vegetables and 30 catties of mushrooms.
Although the price isn't the cheapest, they're all grown by experienced farmers in their own fields, so they're incredibly fresh and crisp.
At the same time, she bought some soybeans, preparing to try making soy milk.
The next morning, Su An received the vegetables and meat delivered on time.
The whole family pitched in, working with great enthusiasm, and made 500 vegetable, mushroom, and pork buns and pork intestine buns in one go.
The strong third brother was instructed by Su An to grind soybeans into soy milk. The soybeans had been soaked overnight and became soft, slowly producing soy milk.
Filter the soybean pulp through a coarse cloth to separate it, then pour it into a pot and boil it.
Su An specially prepared both salty and sweet flavors, and served them to his family first to try them out.
"Sweet! Delicious!" The little girl's eyes lit up as soon as she took a sip. After finishing, she ran to her mother and begged for another bowl.
The second and third children were also amazed by the wonderful taste.
The mouth is full of the aroma of beans, with a sweet aftertaste. After drinking the sweet one, people vie to try the salty one.
Everyone gave the eldest sister a thumbs up!
It seemed to have received unanimous praise. Su An nodded in satisfaction before rolling up his sleeves and opening the shop.
A large number of regular customers had already gathered outside the shop, waiting eagerly, most of whom were students who had gotten up early to prepare for their morning reading.
After hearing Su An's introduction of the new fresh meat buns and soy milk, the crowd instantly erupted in excitement.
"Me! Me! Me! I want three pork intestine buns and three pork buns!"
"Hey, don't push! Little boss, give me some first, I want to try the soy milk!"
"Don't rush, don't rush, everyone line up!" Su Yi shouted, but she didn't need to say much. Amidst the commotion, the five hundred steamed buns were quickly sold out!
There were only three large buckets of soy milk, and they were all gone in the blink of an eye!
Those who missed out could only wait for the next batch, watching enviously as customers tasted the food on the spot.
"My goodness! No wonder this meat bun is called a meat bun, it tastes so delicious!"
With each bite, the freshness of the greens, the rich aroma of the mushrooms, and the succulence of the meat unfold in layers, making it simply irresistible!
But those who got to drink the soy milk unexpectedly and quickly split into two factions.
"It has to be sweet to taste good! The delicate texture and sweet flavor are simply like nectar!"
"Bullshit! The salty flavor is clearly better! The subtle saltiness and richness of the soy milk create a wonderfully complex taste!"
The two groups argued fiercely, making the already bustling shop even more crowded.
"..." At this moment, in the neighboring courtyard, the three of them, master and servant, listened to the lively atmosphere of the sesame seed cake shop and the overwhelming aroma wafting over.
They all fell into a tacit silence.
Fu Zhun sat in his wheelchair, one hand resting on his empty stomach, speechless and choked with emotion, looking coolly at Zhou Li, "You didn't go?"
This kid usually seems pretty clever.
Zhou Li's face immediately fell, and he pouted as if he wanted to cry: "It's too popular, I can't get in."
Even though he went there before dawn, the line was already full of people!
I was thinking of coming back to take a nap, and by the time I woke up, everyone would have finished shopping and left. But no! No!
There are more and more people!
Ahhh! He really wants to try the young boss's new product too!
"Speaking of which, Your Highness," he asked with a forced smile, his eyes filled with tears, "would you like your soy milk sweet or savory?"
As soon as he asked, smelling the aroma, Fu Zhun's stomach rumbled.
He glanced at it expressionlessly, then gave a faint smirk: "Sweet."
"What a coincidence, Your Highness! I also like sweet things!" Zhou Li swallowed, as if he had found a kindred spirit, and put his hand on Fu Zhun's shoulder. "We really are kindred spirits when it comes to sweetness!"
They absolutely support the sweet soy milk faction!
Fu Huai's eyes showed a hint of disdain, he shrugged his shoulders, and took his hand away.
"Go buy soy milk."
Zhou Li looked at the queue that stretched out onto the street and joined it with a bitter face.
Good heavens, when will we ever get to the front of the queue?!
The number of customers outside Su's pancake shop was unprecedented.
Su An's estimated four thousand buns were all snapped up in less than two hours!
Customers with empty hands preferred to linger in the shop, enjoying the aroma and unwilling to leave.
Su An was exhausted and covered in sweat, so he didn't have time to chase away the guests. The family simply ate the steamed buns that had been saved for them, which served as their lunch.
Business was so good that, although the family was tired, they ate with extra peace of mind and great relish.
Suddenly at this moment—
"Bang!"
The shop door was kicked open, and a pot-bellied man with a burly face burst in, pointing and cursing at them.
"Well, you bunch of deadbeat beggars, you still have the appetite to eat!"
"Get out of here right now, get out of my shop!"
The customers who remained in the store were stunned when they saw this scene.
What's going on? When did Su's Pancake Shop change hands?
"It's Uncle! He's here again!" Su Jiang dropped the half-eaten bun on the ground. He and his third brother jumped up and immediately stood in front of the family as if facing a formidable enemy.
Su Dabao glanced at Li Guihua behind them and immediately sneered, shouting, "Li Guihua, don't think you can get away with it by sending two brats to your side! Pay your debts, today is the final deadline!"
"You can't pay back the money, huh? Transfer the shop to me right now, or I'll report you to the authorities!"
After saying that, he forcefully tried to grab Li Guihua, looking completely self-righteous.
Li Guihua frowned, not even having a chance to speak, when suddenly a fair hand swiftly blocked Su Dabao's path: "Who said we're not going?"
Su An immediately ran back to get the silver as soon as he sensed something was wrong.
At this moment, she stood in front of him aggressively and threw a large silver ingot at Su Dabao.
She stared at Su Dabao, whose expression had changed, with a half-smile. "Uncle, take it carefully. Ten taels, no more, no less, we're even!"
"This...this is impossible!"
Su Dapo stared wide-eyed, and incredulously picked up the silver ingot, stuffed it into his mouth, and bit into it, making a crunching sound.
It's actually true!
He immediately looked up and angrily shouted, "Where did you poor bastards get your money? You must have stolen it!"
The surrounding customers couldn't help but laugh. The Su family's steamed buns were selling so well, how could they not afford a mere ten taels of silver?
Unfortunately, Su Dabao was so engrossed in his debauchery that he had no idea what had happened in the Su family in a single day, and he had never even heard of any steamed buns.
"I don't want this kind of dirty money from dubious sources, lest it get me into trouble!"
Su Dabao looked disdainful, threw the silver away, and then shouted righteously, "If you want to repay, you have to repay with legitimate banknotes from the four major money houses, otherwise it doesn't count!"
After saying that, he couldn't help but feel smug.
Anyway, the money exchange is only open during the day, and now it's closed, so the Su family has nowhere to exchange their money!
What can we do if he insists on having the silver notes? It doesn't violate the law!
He will be able to take over the shop openly and legitimately right away!
Li Guihua was also familiar with the rules of the money exchange, and she panicked immediately, her face turning pale as she begged for mercy.
