This was originally a century-old store opened by a local from Renhe County. It was originally spotted by Liu Erniang, who used some tricks to buy the store.
As it is a century-old store, business has always been good and it is part of the Liu family's main source of income, so Liu Erniang also values it very much.
Look, she came here immediately after returning from outside. Who would have thought that one look at the accounts would make her furious.
Shopkeeper Huang hurriedly picked up the account, with a bitter face but no anger, and explained: "Boss, there's nothing we can do about this. Recently, a new bakery has appeared in the county town, and many new and old customers have gone to buy their cakes, so fewer people come to our shop."
The store used to be packed with people, but now the customers are few and far between. However, there is nothing they can do. They can't just pull the customers over and tell them not to buy there and to buy only from them.
"Newly opened?" Liu Erniang narrowed her eyes.
"Yes." Shopkeeper Huang hurriedly told her about the newly opened pastry shop.
Liu Erniang's dark-skinned hands tightly gripped the chair, and her expression was gloomy as she asked, "You said the cake seller's name is Zhao Chuchu?"
"Yes, and her husband, called, called..."
"Zhang Xiuyuan."
"Yes, hey, boss, how did you know?"
…
Liu Erniang stood in an inconspicuous corner of the street, with her arms folded across her chest, looking into the distance.
Behind her was the shopkeeper Huang who brought her here.
"Boss, that is."
There was the flower cake stall run by Zhao Chuchu and her three companions, with customers coming in an endless stream.
Liu Erniang narrowed her eyes, her gaze sometimes falling on Zhao Chuchu, sometimes on Zhang Xiuyuan, with a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
"This flower cake is so delicious! My husband and children are full of praise for it. I'm here to buy more."
"Yes, I bought a few more boxes and planned to give them to my relatives tomorrow."
Two people were chatting while carrying the flower cakes they had just bought.
"Don't you often go to Liu Ji's century-old pastry shop to buy it? Now you come with me to the Zhao family."
"I think Zhao's flower cakes are better. I keep coming back for more. Liu's century-old cakes used to be good, but now..." The man shook his head. "My daughter had diarrhea after eating one once. The doctor said it was because she ate something unclean. Sigh, ever since the cake shop changed owners, the cakes have been getting worse and worse."
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously.
The two people's casual chat made Manager Huang sweat profusely and he shouted that he was doomed.
Sure enough, she looked up and met Liu Erniang's sinister gaze.
The pastries are indeed not as good as before. In order to save money and make the pastries more delicious, the people under Liu Erniang use inferior ingredients to make the pastries. It would be strange if they tasted better than before.
…
Liu Erniang was completely furious.
She knew that the pastries were made with inferior ingredients, but she was the one who made the profit and the store's business was always good. In comparison, she turned a blind eye.
But her business was taken away by the Zhao family, she lost so much profit, and was despised by her old customers. How could she bear it?
In front of her stood not only the shopkeeper but also several pastry chefs.
This scene was very similar, just like when the Zhao family's dishes caused Huixiang Restaurant to take away customers from Fuman Restaurant.
Liu Erniang had long wanted to deal with the Zhao family.
But her previous plan failed, so she asked her third sister for help. However, her third sister was busy some time ago, and she also went out of town. She didn't expect that the Zhao family had launched pastries and snatched away so many customers just because she was not paying attention.
At this moment, Zhao Chuchu was a thorn in Liu Erniang's heart, how could she not pull it out.
