Chapter 97 Chapter 97 The brother and sister quarreled
Bozaigao is a delicacy from other places. Zhao Ruyue has lived in the local area for so long, but she has never seen anyone selling it.
Therefore, Zhao Ruyue felt that the bowl specially used for making bowl-shaped cakes was probably not available locally, and she probably had to buy something else instead.
After class at noon that day, she went to the wholesale market first to look for it. The wholesale market was the most likely place to find it.
If you can't find it in the wholesale market, the chances of finding it elsewhere are even lower.
In order to search more carefully, Zhao Ruyue's lunch was simple. She just bought two buns on the street and ate while searching in the wholesale market.
After searching the wholesale market for three times, all the merchants thought she was sick, but she still couldn't find it.
However, Zhao Ruyue did not gain nothing.
While searching, she wrote down things that could replace the small bowl for the Bo Zai Gao.
Looking through these three times was enough for her to decide which one was cheaper and more practical.
At the same time, I also bought a few things needed for setting up a stall: disposable plastic bags. I have some at home, but I don’t have smaller ones. There is no need for medium and large plastic bags for bowl-shaped cakes.
They need to prepare some small plastic bags. When customers buy bowl cakes and don't want to eat them right away, they can help the customers put the bowl cakes in plastic bags, which makes it easier to carry and keeps out dust.
These small plastic bags were very cheap, so Zhao Ruyue bought ten bundles directly.
I also bought a few bundles of bamboo sticks for sticking the bowl cake, and the rest were the main ingredients and side dishes for making the bowl cake and sandwiches.
You don’t need to buy a folding table for setting up a stall, as we have plenty of them at home. But you should buy a nice tablecloth.
Zhao Ruyue ran to the third floor of the wholesale market, where there were stalls selling clothes, fabrics, and bedding.
She may not have a good sense of aesthetics but she can learn from others. She ignored the store owner's recommendation and asked him to help her get a white checkered tablecloth.
After thinking that white is easy to get dirty, I bought a light pink plaid tablecloth to replace the white tablecloth when I need to wash it.
After buying all these, the time she had agreed with Zheng Xiu to transport the things was approaching.
Zhao Ruyue temporarily left the things in the store with the most purchases, then ran to the entrance of the wholesale market and waited for a while, and Zheng Xiu arrived.
The two of them loaded the things into Zheng Xiu's car together.
When Zheng Xiu drove the goods to the town, Ning Shaoming had just woken up from his nap, and it was Ning Shichun's turn to rest.
Ning Shaoming moved the things into the house and looked at them one by one.
He confirmed that except for the small bowl for making bowl-shaped cake, everything else Zhao Ruyue bought was complete. There were even more ingredients than he had imagined, including milk tea powder, pearls, and tapioca pearls.
After the children at home found these things, Ning Shaoming's bowl-shaped cake had not yet been made. At the children's request, he cooked the pearls and sago first, and made milk tea for them with milk tea powder.
Today is the day when students return to school. At this point, some junior high school students whose homes are far from school have already arrived in the town.
Many junior high school students have become accustomed to running to Ning Danping's uncle's store to buy food as soon as they arrive in town.
Ning Shaoming's milk tea was ready. After cooling for a while, it didn't feel so hot anymore. He took it out and was about to put it in the refrigerator when these junior high school students smelled the fragrance of the milk tea.
These junior high school students often come to buy things and are very familiar with Ning Shaoming.
Following the smell, they came over and asked, "Boss, do you sell milk tea?"
Ning Shaoming paused, thought about it and shook his head: "No, this is for the kids at home."
Unexpectedly, the students who came over pointed at him and said, "Boss, are you still in need of a child? If you are, I can be your child right now!"
Ning Shaoming didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Not lacking, not lacking. It's hard to support two. If we support a few more, our family will go bankrupt."
The junior high school students wailed for a while, and then when they saw Ning Danping, they said, "We can't be your children, but we can be your nephews and nieces like Danping."
Ning Shaoming was laughing so hard that he almost couldn't hold the big tin pot of milk tea steady. The milk tea was swaying in the pot and looked like it was about to spill out.
Several junior high school students were so frightened that they screamed and hurriedly helped him put the big antimony pot into the refrigerator: "Be careful, be careful, don't spill it."
Ning Shaoming lowered his head to glance at the milk tea in the tin pot. When he cooked, he was always worried that his children would not have enough to drink, so he ended up cooking a big pot.
Now it seems that it is not that there is not enough to drink, but that there is too much to drink.
Look at those students again. They patronize the store a lot. A little milk tea doesn’t cost much, so he just temporarily added a limited benefit.
"The milk tea is still warm now. In such hot weather, warm milk tea will definitely not taste as good as refrigerated milk tea. If you want to drink it now, I will give a cup to everyone who has bought anything in the store."
The students exclaimed, "Is this a benefit for buying things today?"
“I guess so, but I did initially intend to make it for children to drink and play with. I don’t make a lot, so it’s first come, first served, while stocks last.
And I have to make it clear that I don’t have milk tea cups at home, only disposable cups. I can only use disposable cups to serve you the milk, and the quantity is definitely not as much as in a milk tea cup. ”
The students hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay. This is a pleasant surprise. It's good to satisfy our cravings!"
One student was worried that he would miss the chance to get in line, so he said, "I won't wait any longer, I want to drink now."
"And me!"
"Me too!"
Ning Shaoming had no choice but to go to the small warehouse and take out the disposable cups that had not been used up, and also took out the kettle at home that could hold two liters of water.
He first separated the milk tea for his family and put it in the refrigerator. The remaining half of the pot was to be given away.
"Would you like some pearls, tapioca pearls, or both?" Ning Shaoming asked the student in the front.
He didn't mix pearls and tapioca pearls into the milk tea, so now it's convenient.
He filled a few cups, and when more customers came in to eat, he handed the job over to Ning Danping.
Go to the kitchen and prepare the fried rice noodles ordered by the customers.
Ning Shaoming glanced outside and saw Ning Danping still methodically filling milk tea for the customers. She also explained clearly today's sudden limited-time and limited-quantity benefits, and then stayed in the kitchen and did not come out.
While completing the customers' orders, I also find time to prepare the ingredients for making bowl cakes and sandwiches.
By the time Ning Shichun had rested, it was Sunday, the peak time for junior high school students to return to school, and the milk tea had all been delivered.
After finishing this period of busy work in an orderly manner, when Ning Shichun and Ning Danping were finally able to sit down and take a break, they suddenly discovered that their third uncle had already made some bowl-shaped cakes using the condiment dishes and smaller rice bowls at home!
"Uncle San, when did you do it?" The most shocked person was Ning Shichun. He had been working in the kitchen, so how come he didn't notice it?
Ning Shaoming said casually: "The guests didn't come in all at once. When there were fewer people, I took the time to do it."
Ning Shichun: “…” During this period of time, he never felt that there were few people around.
Sometimes his uncle would take over some of his work when he saw that he seemed tired...
Ning Shaoming brought out the bowl cake and said, "Come and try it to see how it tastes."
The bowl-shaped cake made with a seasoning dish looks small and shallow, but no matter how small the rice bowl at home is, it is several times larger than the bowl used to make the bowl-shaped cake.
When Ning Shaoming put it in the small bowl, he only filled it to one-third of the bowl, and it turned out to be super big.
It was a thick and big one, and only Ning Shichun felt it was very satisfying to eat.
Ning Shichun finished eating a brown sugar-flavored bowl of cake and nodded, saying, "It's delicious, but not sweet enough."
Like Ning Shiqiu and Ning Shixia, he prefers sweet food. Ning Shaoming looked at Ning Danping: "Danping, how do you like it? Just tell me the truth. I have to use your taste as a reference."
Ning Danping also said after eating: "I also think it's not sweet enough."
Ning Shaoming thought the sweetness was just right when he ate it, but he still decided to add a little sweetness to the bowl-shaped cake he planned to sell.
After all, bowl-shaped cakes are mainly sold to children and young girls. Ning Shaoming's own taste is more inclined towards adults, and adults are likely to buy them for their own children.
Before Zhao Ruyue came back with the small bowl for making the bowl-shaped cake, Ning Shaoming started making sandwiches.
So their dinner today became: egg and ham sandwich, egg and sausage sandwich, egg and pork floss sandwich, and taro and pork floss sandwich.
Zhao Ruyue in the county town was also busy.
After class in the afternoon, Zhao Ruyue asked Zheng Xiu to take her around the county town. They first went to the night market management office to ask about setting up stalls.
I learned from the night market management office that the remaining stalls are in bad locations, so they are left, but a stall fee of 500 yuan is still required every month.
Zhao Ruyue paid the stall fee without thinking too much and got a contract and a sign.
When the time comes, they will have to hang up this sign when they set up the stall, so that when the staff go on patrol, they won't think that her family is secretly selling things in the night market and charge them the stall fee again.
After they got their things, the staff took them to see where the stalls were, pointed to the red line on the ground and told them: "You can't set up stalls beyond the designated positions. Otherwise, if you get into a dispute with someone, our management office will not only not help you, but will also fine those who are offside."
Zhao Ruyue thought this was a good idea, as long as no one set their things out of bounds, the night market would not look messy.
After leaving the night market, Zheng Xiu drove with Zhao Ruyue and searched all the places they could think of.
The result was as Zhao Ruyue expected. She still couldn't find the small bowl specifically for making bowl-shaped cakes.
So Zhao Ruyue turned to the wholesale market again.
She originally wanted to buy transparent bowl-shaped teacups, but teacups were too expensive and were mostly bought in sets.
Later, on the way to the wholesale market, I passed by a one-dollar store and heard the big loudspeaker at the door of the store shouting: Two yuan, two yuan, everything is two yuan. You can’t lose anything or be cheated with two yuan.
She thought that she hadn't bought the small light string yet, and this kind of store might be cheaper than the wholesale market, so she asked Zheng Xiu to stop the car and went in.
When I was looking for a small string of lights, I passed by the bowl and dish area of the two-dollar store and saw a glass cup. It was small and round and looked very cute. The most important thing was that the capacity of this small glass cup seemed to be about the same size as the small bowl for Bo Zai Gao.
Although it has a handle, who says that the container for making bowl cakes cannot have a handle?
And when she asked the boss, she found out that the price of this small cup was much cheaper than a teacup. It came in a set of two, and a set cost two dollars.
Zhao Ruyue instantly forgot about the small light strings and directly bought twenty sets, a total of forty. On the first day, Ning Shaoming was just setting up a stall to test the waters, so forty should be enough.
She saw that there were still a lot of these cups in the two-dollar store, so if there were not enough cups, she could come back to buy more tomorrow.
When she was about to leave after paying, Zhao Ruyue finally remembered that she came here to look for the small light string.
There were indeed some in the two-dollar store, but they were all small colored lights. She thought children would like them, so she bought two strings of small colored lights.
I also bought two square grids to fix the light strings.
I saw a three-layer storage rack with wheels next to the grid, and I was a little tempted. The folding rack at home doesn’t have something to fix the grid, so I bought two small trolleys and placed it directly on both sides of the table.
When the time comes, you can fix the grid on the cart, and you won’t have to find a pole to fix the grid.
Moreover, it would look nice to put bowl-shaped cakes in the cart and hang small colored lights on it, which can also serve as a display stand.
When I stop setting up a stall, I can still put it at home to store things.
But when Zhao Ruyue asked about the price, she found out that one was twenty-five yuan, so she gave up immediately.
I immediately bought two two-layer bathroom racks for eight dollars each, and spent less than five dollars on a few small wheels and a bundle of cable ties, planning to go back and make them myself.
I ended up buying the battery and the small white light string at the wholesale market.
After buying everything she needed, Zhao Ruyue returned home with the items.
I first took out the cups and handed them to Ning Shaoming, and explained to him, "I couldn't find anything else, so I bought these at the two-dollar store. There are forty in total. Should that be enough for now?"
Ning Shaoming even used the saucer and the small rice bowl at home to make the bowl cake, so naturally he had no objection to the cup Zhao Ruyue bought: "That's enough, I'll wash it, you go eat dinner first."
"I only prepared sandwiches and milk tea for dinner today. If you want to eat something else, tell me and I'll make it. By the way," Ning Shaoming pointed at the small light strings and storage racks she bought and asked, "What are those things used for?"
Zhao Ruyue said, "Wait until I'm done, and you'll know. I still have to deal with these things, otherwise the light string can't be powered directly by the battery."
She wanted to keep it a secret, and Ning Shaoming was happy to cooperate. He didn't ask any more questions and went into the kitchen to make the bowl cake.
Ning Shaoming washed the small glass, and Zhao Ruyue finished a sandwich and a cup of milk tea.
After filling her stomach, she picked up her tools, then suddenly remembered something, put them down and trotted to the kitchen.
Ning Shaoming was just about to boil a pot of hot water to sterilize the cups. Zhao Ruyue had asked about it and was told that these were high temperature resistant glass cups and were not afraid of being steamed, so they would not be damaged by the boiling water.
He looked up and saw his wife running over. He thought she needed his help with what she was going to do, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
"When you make the bowl cakes later, can you give me some flavors with juicy fillings?"
"Juicy filling?" Ning Shaoming thought for a moment and said, "Like custard buns?"
"That should be about the same. I want brown sugar syrup-filled pudding and chocolate syrup-filled pudding. I remember I still have some chocolate at home."
That was a snack she bought for her children in the past. After they were sold out, she realized that it was a cocoa butter substitute, so Zhao Ruyue put it away.
She didn't want to give it to her children, but she didn't want to throw it away. They both didn't like it very much. Today, when she wanted to eat the juicy bowl-shaped cake, she remembered that she had this at home.
She is an adult, so it should be okay for her to eat it occasionally.
Ning Shaoming nodded: "I'll give it a try."
Anyway, he has to make several flavors of bowl-shaped cakes, so it wouldn't hurt to make two more.
Originally, Ning Shaoming planned to make five flavors, namely: red bean, mung bean, milk coconut shreds, milk tea pearls, and coconut milk tapioca pearls, eight of each, which would just use up all forty small cups.
Now in addition to these two flavors, he simply added a dragon fruit flavor, making a total of eight flavors, with five of each.
Ning Shaoming prepared enough ingredients to make more than 40 servings. He let his family choose what they liked from the first batch and continued making dishes after freeing up the cups.
After Zhao Ruyue finished talking to Ning Shaoming, she ran back to the study.
The battery she bought was an old-fashioned split flashlight battery, and the plugs for the several strings of small lights needed to be plugged into sockets.
You have to remove the plug first, then separate its two wires to the appropriate length, and then cut off part of the plastic casing on the light string wires.
Make the part without the outer shell into the shape of a fishhook, hook it correctly to the two poles of the battery to form a closed circuit, and the small light string will light up.
When not in use, you only need to unhook one of the hooks of the small light string without having to remove it all, which is quite convenient.
The battery can be used for up to fourteen hours in strong light conditions and twenty-five hours in weak light conditions.
Ning Shaoming goes out to set up the stall until she finishes class, which is at most four hours, which is enough time even if all the light strings are connected.
Zhao Ruyue originally wanted to be convenient and buy two batteries so that Ning Shaoming could use them alternately.
When she asked about the price, she found out that the battery was not cheap, one costing 120 yuan. So since she thought one battery would be enough, she decided to save money and only bought one.
After modifying the small light strings, Zhao Ruyue started to tinker with the two bathroom shelves. They had grid-shaped underneath, and installing wheels on them was easier than modifying the small light strings.
Just tie it up with a cable tie and it's done.
However, after Zhao Ruyue finished it, she removed the wheels. These two shelves are temporarily placed on the table to fix the grid, and are also used to store rice cakes or sandwiches. It would not be stable enough if the wheels were installed.
But since she had already bought the wheels, she simply got a piece of wood and nailed a few wooden strips on it to make it into a square handle that could be pushed and pulled.
Install the wheels under the wooden board and use it as a flatbed cart. Do not use cable ties to fix it to the board, but use nails.
However, cable ties are not useless. They can also be used to fix grid pieces and small light strings.
After she fixed the wheels, she pulled the beggar's version of the flatbed cart she had made to the door.
I collected two sets of folding tables that had been placed under the shed at the door, placed them on a flatbed cart, and dragged them for a distance.
The asphalt road at the entrance is sometimes passed by trucks and large buses that turn off the highway to pick up passengers. The road surface has been bumpy due to the heavy impact of the trucks. The county said it would repair it a few years ago, but there has been no progress in the past few years.
Zhao Ruyue pushed her basic flatbed cart for a while on this road, then pulled it back. She felt that the cart felt good and was quite smooth.
The road conditions in the night market street in the county town are much better than here, so it should be smoother to push and pull.
After she came back, she added a few more chairs online. When she added the sixth chair, she found it a bit difficult to push and pull it.
Finally, considering the need to put the prepared pot cakes and sandwiches on it, as well as the lifespan of the flatbed cart, she decided to bring only a folding table and three chairs.
Ning Shaoming didn't prepare much, and a folding table was enough for now.
She will have to go to classes in the evening in the future, and the two children may follow Ning Shaoming to set up a stall, so three chairs would be just right.
In fact, three photos may be a bit too much. You can’t sit all the time when setting up a stall. You have to stand up to attract customers. It’s best not to sit when serving things to customers.
Ning Shaoming probably could only sit down and rest for a while when there were no customers.
Ning Shaoming also saw her when she went out to test drive the car. He thought that this was the flatbed cart that Zhao Ruyue said she would show him later.
Zhao Ruyue said, "No, that's what I'm going to do next."
She pulled the folding table into the yard, took it down and set it up, wiped the table top clean, and then took out the new tablecloth she had bought today and covered it with it.
Two double-layer shelves are placed on both sides of the table. Two square grid pieces are put together and fixed into a rectangle with cable ties, which are also fixed to the shelves on both sides of the table with cable ties.
Zhao Ruyue took out all the small white and colorful light strings and wrapped them around the grid in a staggered manner.
After connecting the battery, the small light string lights up.
"Wow!" the two children exclaimed, "So beautiful!"
Zhao Ruyue smiled and pointed to the empty space in the middle of the grid where the light string was not installed: "This is where we can put the small signs issued by the Night Market Street Management Office, as well as our own signs."
Ning Shaoming said in annoyance: "I didn't expect to prepare a sign. What should I do if I don't prepare it in advance?"
Zhao Ruyue said, "That's easy. Your son and daughter have a lot of handicrafts. Just ask them to make one for you out of cardboard."
Ning Shaoming looked at the two children.
Ning Shixia and Ning Shiqiu immediately said that this was the same principle as making photo frames, it was very simple and they would definitely be able to do it before setting out to set up the stall.
Then they ran back to their respective rooms to get the materials, and went to the study together to make the sign.
As a result, after a few minutes, several adults standing outside heard them arguing about what color cardboard to use.
My brother suggested using white paper: "Colored lights can be reflected on white cardboard to create a variety of different colors, which must be very beautiful!"
My sister said that we should use a single color: "The sign must allow people to see the words on it clearly, and reflect the different colors. If people only see the color, how can they see the words? I think green is a good choice."
Brother: "Come on, it's obviously you who likes green and wanted to make it green!"
Sister: "Mom said that we should only use white light strings for stalls!"
Brother: "Mom didn't say that we must use only white light strings. I can talk to her and only use colored lights!"
“If you use colored lights, customers will be dazzled and won’t be able to see clearly what’s being sold on the table!”
Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming looked at each other helplessly, wondering whether they should go in to mediate.
They have figured out a solution themselves.
Ning Shixia: "How about we each do our own thing?"
Ning Shiqiu: "Let's go out and ask Mom and Dad if we can make two signs. Dad doesn't sell rice noodles when he goes out to set up a stall, so he can use the store's sign to let people know that it's our stuff. He should also make a sign for the stall to let people know what we sell at the stall."
The store signs in their town are very simple, and they didn't even ask anyone to come up with a special name for them.
We simply used one of the characters in the names of our two children and named the store Qiuxia Gourmet.
When Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming heard what the two children said, they stood in the yard waiting for them to come out to discuss things with them.
As a result, the door moved and then closed again.
Then I heard my son say, "I think it's okay not to ask. We can each make the sign and the other the menu. If we combine them, it should be the same size as the space Mom left. Autumn and Summer Gourmet Restaurant sounds good."
The daughter agreed: "Then I will make the menu and you will make the sign?"
Son: "Okay, write carefully and don't write so ugly."
Daughter: "I see. Make your sign more beautiful. Don't just write a few words, draw some flowers on it."
Standing in the yard, Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming looked at each other again without waiting for the child to come out, and couldn't help but smile.
Then one of them went back to the kitchen to continue working, while the other cleaned up the folding table and the things on it, and went to fetch water to water the vegetables.
In the evening, they arrived at the night market a little earlier than yesterday, but were still the last stall to arrive at the night market.
When they arrived, almost all the stalls had already set out their goods, and people who came out to shop were already wandering around the night market.
Zhao Ruyue held the two children, and Ning Shaoming followed behind her pushing a flatbed trailer, heading to their stall.
After getting closer, Zhao Ruyue saw that some people placed things on their stall. She was a little nervous, worried that she would have a conflict with the people next door on her first day.
Fortunately, she went over and told the people at the stall next door that the stall had been rented by their own family. They then packed up the food and put it back in their stall, and apologized to her.
This made Zhao Ruyue feel relieved. It was great to do business in a harmonious manner.
Because this section of road is designated as a food area and everyone sells food, there is no hostility among competitors.
Ning Shaoming had already learned how to connect the light strings. When he arrived at the place, he first took down the chair and placed it in the back. He said to Zhao Ruyue, "You guys just sit down. It's such a small booth, I can handle it by myself."
Their location is quite remote and not very conspicuous.
But when Ning Shaoming followed what Zhao Ruyue did at home, he moved out the folding table, covered it with a beautiful tablecloth, and then neatly placed the sandwiches and bowl cakes on the tablecloth and the shelves on both sides of the table.
Finally, connect the battery and power on the small chandelier.
Small colorful chandeliers are wrapped around the shelves on both sides, flashing with colorful lights.
The moment it was opened, it attracted the attention of several children passing by.
"Look, mom, it's so beautiful!"
“It’s so beautiful, I want to go there!”
"I want to go over there, too!"
Some adults are worried that the items sold at such a fancy stall will be very expensive.
I don't really want to take my child there. It's not just a visit and that's it. The child will definitely make a fuss if I don't buy him/her a place.
Suddenly, there were several children near the stall, engaging in a tug-of-war with their parents.
There are also parents who bring their children out just to make them happy, and they bring their children over as soon as the children say so.
When I walked over and took a look, I saw that on the grid with a small white chandelier hanging in the middle, there was not only the sign of this stall, but also the menu.
The stall owner clearly marked the prices of everything on the menu.
A bowl of cake costs one dollar, and a sandwich costs one dollar and fifty cents.
The items on the stall are clearly visible.
They are some beautiful small cakes in glass cups, those should be bowl cakes, and some triangular sandwiches.
Because of the small colored lights, their small stall in a remote location was soon surrounded by children.
Chirping I want this! I want that!
The popularity of the stall was beyond their imagination.
Most of the things we brought were sold out soon after the stall was moved out, and in less than an hour, all the things were sold out.
It was still a long time before Zheng Xiu came to pick them up. Ning Shaoming had originally thought of letting Zhao Ruyue take the two children to the night market again, or taking them to other places in the county, while he stayed at the stall to look at things.
They agreed on a place, and when Zheng Xiu came to pick them up, he would take a car to meet them.
However, Zhao Ruyue felt that it would be a pity not to continue selling things. It happened that the business of the stall next door was also good, with too many customers and not enough seats.
The owner of the stall saw that they had sold out and had no intention of restocking, so he came over and asked tentatively, "If you don't want to continue setting up the stall, could you rent it to me for the rest of the time?"
Zhao Ruyue asked in surprise: "Can it be sublet privately?"
"No, it's not allowed unless the management stipulates it."
Zhao Ruyue thought, this means that the management office did not clearly state that it allowed this.
It's a management loophole.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Ruyue said, "I have to go see if there are other people doing this. If so, I will rent the rest of the time to you."
"Okay, okay, you can go over there and take a look. I remember there is a stall over there that also rents half of someone else's space."
Zhao Ruyue walked in the direction pointed by the owner of the stall next door and actually saw the stall he mentioned. In addition, there was another stall whose products were selling fast like theirs and was also closing up.
While the stall owner was closing up his stall, the stall owner at the stall next to him was placing the table next to the stall that was closing up.
She walked around other parts of the night market and found another one.
There were not many stalls that closed early, but there were some. Zhao Ruyue felt relieved and agreed to the rental request from the owner of the stall next door after she came back.
The monthly stall fee for her stall is 500 yuan, which is a little over 16 yuan per day, less than 17 yuan.
The stalls are set up from 7pm to 2 or 3am every day, so it's a pity that they only set up the stalls for three or four hours.
Zhao Ruyue charged the stall owner next door eight yuan for the rental fee, which was sixteen yuan a day.
Then she handed the sign of the night market street management office to the stall owner, and she was not afraid that the stall owner would not return it.
The sign is registered with the night market management office with her ID card information.
It’s useless even if someone else picks it up or embezzles it. She can just take her ID card to report it lost and get a new one, and the one in other people’s hands will then be invalid.
She rented the stall to the people next door, and they told her that she could put her things in the back corner and they would help watch over them to prevent anyone from taking them away.
After putting their things down, the family of four can go out and play.
Zhao Ruyue and Ning Shaoming took their two children for a walk in the county town. On their way back, they passed by a two-yuan store and found that it was still open.
He walked in without hesitation and bought out all the small glass cups that Zhao Ruyue bought today. There were three large boxes, with a total of 240 cups.
Originally, there were fifty sets in a box, a total of one hundred cups. The boss sold twenty cups from one box individually, and the other forty were bought by Zhao Ruyue today.
Since I bought a lot this time, I negotiated the price with the boss and got a 95% discount.
The box was too big for them to move, so they had to stop strolling and take a tricycle back to the night market.
The reason why he bought so many cups at one time was that after setting up the stall for a night, the question Ning Shaoming was asked most often was: Can’t this cup be taken away?
At first, he patiently explained: "This is the container for making bowl cakes. I will need it when I make bowl cakes in the future."
When someone asked him again, he directly told them, "If you take the cup with you, the bowl cake will cost 2.50 yuan each."
The original intention was to raise the price so that people would feel that it was too expensive and not cost-effective and would give up.
I didn't expect that I could sell more than a dozen cups in one night.
When I was closing the stall and counting the cups, I saw the twenty or so cups left and I didn’t know what to say.
Finally, I can only sigh: "There are so many rich people in the county."
They are selling the cups wholesale in disguise.
After one night, I gained a lot.
Ning Shaoming decided to prepare more bowl-shaped cakes and reduce the amount of sandwiches tomorrow, and also bring some cup cakes and Dorayaki to sell.
He felt that he had not thought it through enough yesterday.
The sandwich is actually a bit like a hot dog bun. Although it has some foreign elements, it is actually more suitable to be sold as breakfast in the morning.
The sandwiches sold out today obviously not as fast as the bowl-shaped cakes.
And today, someone visiting the night market recognized him as the owner of the Qiuxia Food Store in Rongxi Town, and asked him why he didn't bring cupcakes and Dorayaki to sell.
The customer who asked the question is very busy at work in the county town, and has to go to work on weekends, so he doesn't want to bother even if he can rest.
So every time I have to wait for relatives from Rongxi Town to go to the county town to play and ask him to bring them some food before I can eat his food.
Ning Shaoming originally thought that people were just being polite, but he didn't expect that those customers would actually give him money in advance just to have his cupcakes the next day.
Remind him not to forget to bring them when he comes to set up the stall tomorrow night.
Ning Shaoming persuaded them and promised that he would bring it tomorrow before they let them take the money back.
Some customers also suggested that he set up a stall selling fried rice noodles at the night market.
Ning Shaoming himself didn't expect that so many people in the county knew about his store.
Ning Shaoming was somewhat tempted by the suggestion of selling fried rice noodles at the night market.

Ning Shaoming bought some and ate it after seeing someone selling it.
He himself thought the taste was just average, and his two children, who had been spoiled by eating too much delicious food, even said it was not tasty.
If he sells fried rice noodles at the night market, it can be predicted that the business will be good.
But he had promised Zhao Ruyue that he could not ignore his own health just to make money when setting up a stall at night.
Fried rice noodles require flipping the wok and standing all the time. He has already worked all day, and if he continues working at night, he is obviously trading his health for money.
The loss outweighs the gain, and his wife will be angry and upset. Ning Shaoming thought about it and gave up. There is no end to making money, and he should not put the cart before the horse.
He has also planned to open a store in the county town. He will pay the remaining payment to the seller on Monday and get the key to the house, and then he can start preparing for the store in the county town.
