By the time Liu's parents found out that Liu Zi and her family were moving, they had already packed up almost everything.
The house had already been cleaned, so all I had to do was tidy up the new bedding and my usual clothes.
That evening, Liu Zi called her parents, and the family sat down together for a meal to celebrate.
Liu Zi has already completed all the necessary procedures for her fruit drink shop.
During dinner, Liu Daqiang brought it up and suggested that since Saturday the day after tomorrow would be an auspicious day, they could just open for business immediately.
If anything is missing, just add it as you go.
Liu Zi thought it made sense. Since she had already moved here, the sooner she opened for business, the sooner she could make money.
She immediately listed out the menu that the fruit drink shop could offer.
Drinks menu: Pearl milk tea, taro ball milk tea, pudding milk tea, orange juice, lemon tea.
Dessert menu: Fresh milk tarts, cream puffs, cake rolls, chocolate sliced cakes.
Chinese-style casual meals: chicken skewers, lamb skewers, duck skewers, fried gluten, and fried starch sausage.
These are all very common street food items in later generations. They are basically pre-made dishes that can be sold after a little processing.
However, preparing these things is now very troublesome, and most of them still need to be done by hand.
Early Saturday morning, the two temporary workers that Liu Zi had hired in advance arrived.
The group of college students looked very energetic and youthful.
Before they started work, Liu Zi prepared clothes for the two of them and gave them a 'pre-battle pep talk'.
If they send out the ads diligently and the results are good, we'll have the two of them come again tomorrow.
You should know that Liu Zi paid him fifty yuan a day and also provided a meal.
The two college students exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.
They came out to work during winter break to earn more money to supplement their living expenses. With such high wages, of course they would earn as much as possible for each day they could!
In fact, as early as yesterday, Liu Zi had already sent Mei Hong to the intersection to distribute promotional leaflets for exercise.
She went to check on the young woman privately and found that she was doing a good job. She was attentive in promoting the product to young people passing by, and she was also patient in explaining it to older people who asked questions.
Judging from Mei Hong's recent performance, Liu Zi felt that Aunt Zhang had really gone to great lengths for her, and those two boxes of Daoxiangcun were well worth it.
Liu Zi ordered a banner in advance. The fruit drink shop is opening for trial operation today, offering a buy-one-get-one-free deal on Hong Kong-style milk tea.
After the shop opened, Liu Zi noticed that the young girl, Mei Hong, was a little nervous. She comforted her, saying that she should just do it the way they practiced before.
Mei Hong nodded shyly, but in her heart she was worried that someone might come and buy such an expensive item.
Liu Zi is selling a shortage.
Currently, Hong Kong-style cuisine is only found in some large hotels or expensive tea restaurants.
Liu Zi guarantees quality and has also driven down the price.
In addition, Liu Zi also ordered a secret weapon to attract customers.
To prevent anyone from stealing the technique, she purchased it from multiple locations and even had a large box custom-made for its base.
This morning, Liu Zi pushed her secret weapon out from the backyard gate, connected it to an electric wire, and with a whirring sound, an inflatable rocking doll slowly rose up.
This was drawn by Liu Zi herself. The dancing star has a magical appearance, a slender body, exaggerated expressions, and a head of bright blue hair, making it particularly eye-catching.
As the blower continued to operate, the dancers began to sway their bodies exaggeratedly, attracting considerable attention.
Because the surrounding buildings are all two-story buildings and the space is limited, Liu Zi took this into full consideration when designing the project.
The dancer's body is very long, with his head and arms all above the rooftop.
This resulted in several nearby streets seeing something flying in the sky.
Liu Zi had already rehearsed on the rooftop yesterday, and her two daughters hadn't had enough of watching.
This time, I stood directly on the second-floor balcony and got a closer look again.
The street was instantly filled with the excited screams of children.
Liu Zi rubbed her ears, feeling that the two children had made up for the firecrackers she hadn't set off today.
Moments later, the whole street erupted in excitement.
First came the shop owners, then the passersby, all flocking to see something so unusual.
Liu Zi kept a close eye on the movements of all parties. After realizing that the entire street was saturated with people, she immediately notified Aunt Zhang to turn off the power in her house.
The dancer lost momentum and began to slowly fall.
Liu Zi had already found a few helpers on this street. They quickly packed up the things and then pushed the cart away.
They had only agreed to help Liu Zi out of consideration for their neighbors.
But after seeing how powerful this thing was at attracting customers, they all took the initiative to do something about it.
Fruit drink shops benefit, and they can also profit from it!
Originally, their street didn't get many customers because of its location in the back, but this time, with this powerful weapon, they were finally able to reap the benefits.
Liu Zi timed it perfectly.
As soon as the dancers put away, a banner was hung down from the balcony.
To celebrate the trial opening of Auntie's Fruit Drink Shop in Beijing, the dance troupe will be holding performances at irregular intervals every day.
Along with the promotional banners at the entrance of the fruit drink shop, the small shop was soon crowded with customers coming to inquire.
Inside the sparkling glass counter, one side displays exquisite Western-style pastries, while the other side offers mouthwatering fried skewers.
Just then, a rich, sweet aroma wafted out of the window, causing a stir among the onlookers.
"What's this?"
Suddenly, a young woman standing at the front pointed at the egg tarts and asked a question.
Liu Zi had anticipated this. She first turned on the loudspeaker before speaking to the people outside the window: "These are Portuguese egg tarts from Macau. The crust is crispy, and the inside is soft and tender like pudding. They are very delicious."
The young woman was intrigued by Liu Zi's words and asked, "How much is one?"
"We clearly price them at one yuan each. Now that the store is in its trial operation phase, we're offering a buy-one-get-one-free deal. This is a rare opportunity, so first come, first served."
"Then I'll take two, and you'll give me four?" the young woman said excitedly.
“Yes! The more you buy, the more you get.” Liu Zi’s words were unmistakably encouraging.
After asking the questions, the young woman paid and took four.
Liu Zi concluded by reminding her that freshly baked egg tarts taste better than cooled ones, and urged her to eat them as soon as possible.
Those behind the young woman in line were getting anxious when they saw that a corner of her plate was missing.
The man behind the young woman bought the remaining twenty directly.
Liu Zi slapped her forehead; she seemed to have forgotten about the purchase limit.
The main problem is that even with promotions, the egg tarts made a lot of money, so she completely forgot about it.
Seeing that there were only a few egg tarts left on the plate, Liu Zi immediately brought out the crusts she had made earlier from the backyard.
Prepare the egg mixture according to the ingredient list, then pour it into the prepared molds one by one and put them in the oven.
