Su Yan said, "I'll tell you when it gets there tomorrow. It's already very late, you should go and get some rest."
Jiang Jingxing had no choice but to agree, "What time will you arrive tomorrow? I'll pick you up at the entrance in advance."
"Let's get there around 11:30. I'll have dinner with you before we go back to school."
"I'm waiting for you."
"Okay, I'm hanging up now, bye-bye."
Before Jiang Jingxing could even utter the words he was about to say, the phone started ringing.
A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
On the way back to school.
Su Yan told Deng Ziyi and the others that she was going to see Jiang Jingxing the next day, and then said apologetically, "I promised him last week, so tomorrow..."
Deng Ziyi quickly replied, "It's alright. The three of us will be enough for the stall tomorrow. You rarely get to see each other, so you should go ahead and do so. Besides, you're going to stay with us until we make the egg tarts tomorrow morning, so there's even less of a problem."
There's no need for Su Yan to personally oversee something as simple as setting up a stall to sell things. If they, as adults, can't even do this kind of thing well, people will laugh their heads off if word gets out.
Bai Meng and Chen Ting nodded in agreement.
Su Yan smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you. Tomorrow is the weekend, and there will be a lot of people. If you want to earn more money, I think setting up a stall at the school or in a shopping mall is also a good option."
People who shop at malls are generally those with spending power, and some of them only have weekends off, so they choose to go shopping at that time. These people are bound to buy something.
Although there is a lot of foot traffic at the school gate, not every student can afford to buy egg tarts. Three egg tarts for one yuan is quite expensive for students who are not well-off.
Chen Ting said, "Then let's set up shop at school in the morning and go to the mall in the afternoon?"
“No need. The three of you can divide the work. One of you can bake the egg tarts at the apartment, one of you can set up a stall at the school, and one of you can set up a stall at the mall. This way, we can save time and earn more.” Su Yan said, “You three can discuss how to divide the work. I will take you to choose a location for the stall tomorrow morning, and then we will go back to the apartment to make the egg tart crusts.”
She wanted to make a variety of different kinds of bread and pastries at once, but she didn't know how the egg tart business was going, so the first week of setting up the stall was a trial phase. She would only be able to see the actual business situation after a week.
Bai Meng said, "I can make egg tarts faster than the two of you. I'll make the egg tarts, and you two can sell them, okay?"
The location of Liming Apartment is excellent, close to schools, business districts, and hospitals. Even if it's sold out, it's quick to come back and get it.
Chen Ting and Deng Ziyi had no objections.
They're not very skilled at making egg tart filling or baking egg tarts right now, and they're afraid they'll mess it up if you ask them to.
"The mall is usually busiest at noon and in the evening, so you can set up your stall during those times," Su Yan said.
"I'll set up a stall at the mall," Chen Ting said. "I'll set up there from morning until the peak hours are over and then come back. Every little bit helps."
When doing business, you can't be afraid of hardship, fatigue, or trouble. If you want to make money, you have to overcome any difficulties. Besides, selling egg tarts is not hard at all. All three of them are now full of energy.
Su Yan was naturally pleased.
She's not afraid of being tired, she's just afraid that her teammates won't support her when she's tired.
...
The next day, Saturday, arrived.
The four of them woke up at six o'clock in the morning.
Before dawn, the four of them had already left the school gate.
Su Yan first helped Deng Ziyi determine the location for their stall at the school gate, and then took Chen Ting to the mall to find a spot. Bai Meng went back to the apartment to get busy.
In Guangzhou, street vendor spots are all snapped up; it's first come, first served.
After confirming the locations on both sides, the three of them returned to the apartment.
In the apartment.
Bai Meng prepared the egg tart filling for fifty egg tarts.
To save on electricity and time, both racks of the oven were used by Su Yan, which meant the oven temperature had to be lowered.
Otherwise, at the original temperature, the top layer of egg tarts would easily burn, while the bottom layer would be undercooked.
Deng Ziyi said nervously, "How about we make a little bit first to test the waters? What if we make too much and can't sell it?"
Bai Meng immediately glared at her, "Pah, pah, pah, what nonsense are you spouting? Our egg tarts are so delicious, how could they not sell?"
Before Deng Ziyi could speak, Su Yan said, "Ziyi's concerns are not without merit. How about this, we let the customers try it for free, and they can buy it if they like the taste."
"Huh?" Chen Ting hesitated, "If each person gets one, wouldn't we be at a loss?"
“Are you stupid? We can divide one egg tart into several pieces and let them taste them,” Deng Ziyi said.
Su Yan nodded in agreement, "That's right, bake a hundred first, and take 20 out each time. Remember, they sell for one yuan for two at the mall and one yuan for three at school."
After discussing all the details, the four of them got busy.
By 8:30, forty egg tarts had been baked.
The egg tarts were neatly arranged on the tray they bought yesterday, covered with a transparent lid, and Chen Ting and Deng Ziyi took them and set off.
After they left, Bai Meng suddenly became anxious. "Ayan, do you think business might not be doing well?"
Su Yan originally planned to go out with the two of them, since it was their first time doing business.
But after thinking about it, everyone has a first time. Only by taking that first step and facing it alone can you deal with whatever happens in the future on your own.
She worries too much. She should try to let go, just like when she handed the restaurant over to Tang Li and Feng Caixia during the time she was poisoned. The restaurant is developing in a better direction than she imagined.
Hearing Bai Meng's words, she couldn't help but laugh and said, "Why are you only panicking now?"
Bai Meng pursed her lips and twisted her hands, saying, "I don't know, I just suddenly felt very panicked."
Su Yan patted her shoulder, "It's okay, we'll know whether business is good or bad in half an hour to an hour."
If business is good, at the latest within half an hour, one of Chen Ting and Bai Mengzhong will definitely come back to get more egg tarts.
If they haven't returned after more than forty minutes, it means business is bad, and they'll have to find another way out.
"Let's bake them first, half with raisins and half plain."
Bai Meng nodded.
When she gets busy, she doesn't have time to think about too many random things.
She baked egg tarts, while Su Yan continued making the tart crusts next to her.
Egg tart crusts are a consumable item; you can't make egg tarts without them.
After baking a batch of egg tarts, the time it takes to set up the stall is approaching half an hour.
Bai Meng seemed a little absent-minded as she stirred the egg tart filling, glancing up at the clock on the wall every now and then.
Su Yan wasn't entirely without nervousness either.
She is very confident in her skills, but the market may not necessarily accept them.
She said that, but deep down she couldn't guarantee that everything she did would be perfect.
Just as the two of them began to drift off into thought—
"Bang bang bang!"
There was a sudden, loud knocking on the door!
Su Yan immediately put down what she was holding and rushed over to open the door.
