Gao Dafu: "What should we do then?"
Lu Xingchen pondered for a moment: "Don't worry about it. Let's sell the mutton we can first and make some money."
After the three of them finished their discussion and each took up their respective responsibilities, Lu Xingchen went to find the guard.
Through her experiences in the snowy village, she realized that setting up a stall would definitely require paying certain fees, and there might be some procedures involved.
She'll go ask the guards now what needs to be done.
Gu Yanzhi and Gao Dafu returned to their accommodation and hurriedly made skewers of lamb.
Lu Xingchen wandered around for a while, but didn't see any guards.
When I strolled to the central area again, I saw two guards coming out of an alley, carrying two chickens with a smile on their faces.
Guard A: "Haha, not bad, not bad. Go back and make some chicken soup. There are quite a few criminals today. Tsk tsk tsk, there's always something to be gained."
Guard B: "Finally someone sent a chicken. It would be a delicious chicken soup. A tender roast lamb would be even better..."
Lu Xingchen stepped forward, holding a white jade cane: "You two..."
The guards immediately greeted him with smiles: "Master, what are your orders?"
Lu Xingchen explained his purpose and handed over 1,000 gold coins, saying, "Please tell me if there's anything I need to pay attention to."
Guards A and B were overjoyed. They took the gold coins and said, "Master, you're too kind. Hehe, setting up a stall is easy. We just need to pay different stall fees depending on the location. Have you chosen a location yet, Master?"
Lu Xingchen pondered for a moment: "How about getting closer to the Stone Square?"
There are fewer people there and the space is large.
Guards A and B: "Of course you can. The stall fee there is not high. Master, you only need to pay a certain deposit, and then pay 10% of the income after the stall is set up."
Lu Xingchen nodded, "That's fine too."
Guards A and B gave her a large wooden sign, which Lu Xingchen could engrave herself.
Then she paid a deposit of 3,000 gold coins.
Very smooth!
Lu Xingchen immediately returned to his accommodation.
Gao Dafu and Gu Yanzhi had already skewered quite a few lamb skewers, and they arrived together at their designated stall location.
Lu Xingchen took out the wooden sign, carved a few words on it: "Mutton Soup - Lamb Skewers", and then stuck it in the ground.
Gao Dafu had already set up the barbecue grill, and Gu Yanzhi built a simple stove and placed a large iron pot on it to cook mutton soup.
The mutton for three people is quite a lot.
Before long, the mutton soup was simmering, and a batch of mutton skewers was also ready.
This place is relatively remote, but the fragrance is rich and overbearing, and it spreads from far away.
The first one to come was a girl in red, followed by a tall man.
The tall man was immediately delighted when he saw Lu Xingchen: "Good guy, it's you!"
Lu Xingchen looked up and saw that she had met both of them once before. She had seen one of them when she bought Liyun Stone, and the other was her first customer who bought a safe.
Lu Xingchen greeted them, "Want a few skewers?"
The girl in red spoke: "How much is one string?"
Lu Xingchen, Gao Dafu and Gu Yanzhi exchanged glances. They had just combined the prices at the market, discussed it, and had already set a price.
Lu Xingchen picked up the wooden sign and wrote on it: Lamb skewers 8 gold coins/skewer, discounted price 5 gold coins/skewer; Lamb soup 50 gold coins/bowl, discounted price 30 gold coins/bowl.
The girl in red was surprised: "The price is so high?"
Lu Xingchen laughed: "Scarcity makes things valuable!"
The prices at the market in Frosty Snow Village aren't cheap at all!
A string of candied hawthorns costs 5 gold coins, doesn't it?
The girl in red gave Lu Xingchen a meaningful look: "Okay, we'll have two bowls of mutton soup and 20 meat skewers!"
There were only four tables set up. There was no other way; Lu Xingchen only brought one table and four chairs with him, while Gao Dafu brought two tables and eight chairs.
Gu Yanzhi only brought a small table and a small chair.
These are all their tableware.
The girl in red and the tall man sat at the small table and started drinking soup and eating skewers.
Gao Dafu is a very good cook, especially at grilled skewers. After practicing day and night, he has already mastered the skill. No matter who eats his skewers, they will praise it highly.
The girl in red kept praising him, saying to the tall man, "Look, the meat skewers he grills are much tastier than yours."
The tall man buried his head in his food and said incoherently, "Eat quickly, eat quickly, the guards will come soon and we'll have to kick everyone out."
