Chapter 136 Unexpected Effects
Jiang Tangtang sneered, "You're the wife of the pastry shop across the street, right? Why, seeing that my business is booming and you can't compete with us in business, you come to slander our shop?"
As she spoke, she approached Wang Mingfeng, raised her chin, and said with contempt: "If I were a vixen, the first thing I would do is turn you into a stone in the toilet.
You are so narrow-minded and vicious that you are not worthy of being a human being.
If you envy my shop's good business, then you should focus on studying your cooking skills and use the taste to keep customers. You are not a hero if you use such a sinister trick!
"That's right! The pastry shop buys a lot of flour and eggs every month, so how could the pastries be made of stone?"
The owner of the restaurant next door defended Jiang Tangtang, saying, "Their food is delicious because they use solid ingredients. You guys actually said their food was made of stone. Isn't that ridiculous?"
Several other shops that had a good relationship with Jiang Tangtang also came out to speak for Jiang Tangtang. Some people even openly accused Wang Mingfeng's family of making unpalatable pastries and being mean and stingy.
At the same time, Su also loudly told how Zhou Jiuniang came to propose marriage, but when the marriage failed, she slandered her own daughter.
Those who had stopped outside the shop briefly because of Wang Mingfeng's words, when they heard the reason for the incident, all condemned the two people's shamelessness.
Especially the person who knew Zhou Jiuniang and her brother, he talked to them as an insider.
"It's a good thing you didn't agree to this marriage. Zhou Jize is a hopeless case. Zhou Jiuniang often stole money from her husband's shop to spend on her brother, but her brother didn't study hard after taking the money. Instead, he learned to fight cocks and walk dogs, and later became addicted to gambling. Otherwise, how could she still not get married at such an old age?"
"I know about this. It's because Zhou Jiuniang always secretly gave money to her brother from her natal family, and she was beaten by her husband!"
"The Zhou family's parents are not good people either. The old man is a drunkard, and the old woman is also sarcastic and mean. The Zhou family is a hellhole. Any girl would be unlucky to marry into their family."
…
People were talking about it, and soon all the secrets of the Zhou family were exposed. Zhou Jiuniang's husband found out that she was causing trouble outside, so he grabbed her and beat her up again.
This is of course a later story.
The incident between the two did not affect the cake shop's business, but instead made it famous.
Even people from the surrounding Xili County and Quchun County have heard of the reputation of the cake restaurant.
Even today's incident has changed as it has been passed around.
Eventually, it was said that the cakes at the Cake Shop were so delicious, so delicious that they seemed unearthly, that people misunderstood that the owner of the shop was a demon who had attained enlightenment and believed that eating the cakes could prolong one's life.
Some people were curious about how delicious the food in this pastry shop was, and even made a special trip to Raoying County just to try it and see how delicious it was, and whether it would cause rumors like those about goblins.
The food at the Pastry House was already novel, and some of the ingredients came from Jiang Tangtang's space, which further enhanced the taste. Everyone who bought and ate there praised it highly.
It spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred.
The cake shop quickly became famous in the surrounding counties and towns and became the best-reputed shop in Raoying County.
Every day there is a long queue outside the shop, including people from this county, as well as from the neighboring Xili and Quchun counties.
There were even wealthy families who sent their servants to travel dozens of miles to buy food just for a bite of food.
Jiang Tangtang was also a little amused and confused when she found out! She never expected that a quarrel would end up like this.
Although she was happy about the good business of the shop, it also disrupted her original plan.
She originally planned to hand over the shop to Zhang Lu and Du Mudan, freeing up her hands to open a food shop and at the same time think carefully about the rouge shop.
But because the business was so good, she had no time to do anything else and was always busy with the cake shop.
Like Jiang Tangtang, everyone in the cake shop was busy as a top.
Although they were tired, everyone was very happy because it hadn't even been a month yet and Jiang Tangtang was giving out benefits to everyone again.
Not only was each person rewarded with two taels of silver, but each person was also given a gift that suited him or her.
Zhao Jia, Xiao Wang, and several other women were given moisturizer. Li Xiangchen, a man, was given a set of clothes instead of moisturizer by Jiang Tangtang.
Who wouldn’t be happy with a generous and considerate boss?
Although everyone had no complaints and was very motivated, the workload was too intense. No one could handle it in the long run. So Jiang Tangtang went to the dental clinic again to hire someone.
Because they were going to open a few more shops and would need more people, Jiang Tangtang hired ten people directly this time.
People buy a lot and it becomes messy.
Jiang Tangtang didn't dare to take the cakes directly to the cake shop, so she had to put them all in the newly bought shop and let Su Shi train them.
Although Su is not good at doing business, he is very good at training servants.
Finally, Su picked out three servants from this group and put them to work in the cake shop.
After the three of them went over, Jiang Tangtang did not teach them any more cooking skills. Instead, she asked them to help Zhang Lu and Du Mudan.
Jiang Tangtang finally breathed a sigh of relief when the shop had more staff. She now had time to work on other things.
At this time, Lu Shili also came back with Zhao Xun.
Seeing her son return, Su was overjoyed and went out to greet him with a smile. Seeing that there was one more carriage than when they left, she couldn't help but ask, "Is everything going well? Why is there another carriage?"
Lu Shili's skin was much darker than when he left, but his eyes were brighter. He smiled and said, "According to my sister-in-law's instructions, the things we bought couldn't fit in one carriage, so we simply bought another carriage."
When Jiang Tangtang heard that she had actually bought two carriages of beeswax, she was happy and also glad that she had paid a lot of money.
However, he could actually buy so much at once, which was completely beyond Jiang Tangtang's expectations. She hurriedly asked, "How did you buy so much?"
"I came across a caravan that was carrying beeswax to the capital. I negotiated with them and raised the price by 10%, and they bought all the wax. But I'm afraid you won't be able to buy beeswax anywhere in the surrounding area for the next six months. Not to mention the surrounding area, I'm afraid it won't be available for half a week."
Jiang Tangtang was already very satisfied with the amount she could buy. She could figure out how to handle future issues later.
Jiang Tangtang patted his shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work. You really helped me this time!"
Lu Shili said, "It's not hard at all, but I'm used to eating the food my sister-in-law cooks. I feel like the food outside is just like pig food. I want to eat the food my sister-in-law cooks."
"Go take a shower and change your clothes first. I will cook a good meal for you today." Jiang Tangtang said.
"No hurry, I'll move the beeswax from the car first." Lu Shili was much more mature this time. "Sister-in-law, are we moving it to your room?"
