"Although there are not many people today, business is indeed good! I was worried at the beginning that no one would buy!" Lin Feng said to everyone.
"Don't worry, uncle. Those who are well-informed will come to buy it soon!" How much does soy sauce cost on ordinary days? How much is this one of mine? Those who are well-informed will definitely come to buy a bottle to test the waters.
Li Yan glanced at Qin Yue standing behind her and said jokingly, "These two shops didn't disappoint Young Master Qin, did they?"
Qin Yue looked at her confident face, his heart moved slightly, and he praised her with a smile: "Young lady, you are very talented!"
He also didn't expect that this person could actually lower the price of soy sauce to such a low level. Judging from the expressions of those people after tasting it just now, the taste should be quite good. Needless to say, with such a price, from ordinary farmers to restaurants, this soy sauce will affect countless people, and what a big stir it will cause!
After a busy while, Li Erlang and his companions sent away a wave of guests. Then he said to his daughter, "Go next door and see how your grandma's fried chicken is doing. I've booked a large banquet at Piaoxianglou. Take everyone there to eat first!"
Upon hearing this, Li Yan went to the next door. When she entered the shop, she saw Wu smiling from ear to ear.
There weren't many people today, but the business was very good. In just a short while, only two were left out of the thirty chickens.
Seeing her granddaughter coming over, Mrs. Wu, with a smile on her face, handed the money to her granddaughter. Her little granddaughter was really born with good fortune. Look, how good her business is!
Li Yan took the purse and put it directly into her small bag: "Grandpa and grandma, my dad has ordered a meal at the restaurant, let's go now!"
"But there are still two chickens that haven't been sold out!" Mrs. Wu said reluctantly.
"Brother, please help fry it. We can bring it to the restaurant for everyone to try!" Li Yan instructed her cousin.
Upon hearing this, Li Jianmin moved very quickly and threw the chicken, which had been coated with flour, into the frying pan. He was already very skilled.
When Maomao and Lin Xia heard this, their eyes lit up. They had not had enough fried chicken the previous day, and when they thought about having chicken to eat again, they jumped up and down, as happy as birds in the forest.
Mrs. Wu wanted to say that she would not go, and let them go while she stayed to look after the store.
However, Mr. Li's thoughts were seen through by his wife. He pulled her sleeve and shook his head. The meaning was obvious: on such a happy day, there was no need to be so stingy. Didn't he see how happy the children were!
After her cousin had roasted the fried chicken and wrapped it in oil paper, Li Yan asked them to go next door first, and she turned off the stove. Then she closed the door of the shop and prepared to come back to clean up after dinner.
As Li Yan locked the door, she heard a woman behind her ask, "Excuse me, are all the fried chickens sold out?"
Li Yan turned around and saw a woman holding a tearful child. The child had a finger in his mouth and tears in his eyes. He looked so pitiful.
Li Yan said apologetically, "Sorry, today's fried chicken is sold out. Please come back tomorrow!"
The woman was obviously disappointed. She squatted down and said to the child gently, "Xu'er, can I come back to buy it for you tomorrow?"
The little boy named Xu'er nodded aggrievedly. Although he wanted to eat, he also understood Li Yan's meaning. There was no more food today. But the thought of Goudan showing off in front of him made him want to cry! Bean-sized tears fell from the corners of his eyes uncontrollably.
Seeing this scene, Mrs. Wu, who was standing nearby, took an oil-paper bag from her grandson and said with a smile, "Auntie, this fried chicken is also freshly fried. I was planning to take it to the restaurant. If you don't mind, I'll give it to you!"
The woman looked at the child's sensible and pitiful appearance, thanked Wu repeatedly, paid thirty cents, and bought the fried chicken!
The child got the fried chicken he wanted, and the sky immediately turned from cloudy to sunny. He happily went home holding his mother's hand.
Mrs. Wu put the thirty coins she had received into her granddaughter's hands and said, "Alright, we older people can't digest too much fried chicken, so just one piece is enough for us to try!"
Li Yan knew her grandmother's good intentions and accepted the money with a smile: "Grandma, I'll fry another chicken for you when we get back!"
"Stop wasting it. You can't make much money from this chicken. Wait until you make a lot of money!" Mrs. Wu felt very pleased when she heard her granddaughter's words, but she kept saying words of refusal.
Li Yan coquettishly took Wu's arm and said, "Giving me milk to drink, how can you say it's a waste!"
Wu's face was full of wrinkles from smiling. She poked Li Yan's head with her hand, but her heart felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
Qin Yue, who was standing behind the crowd, looked at this scene with a flickering expression. This was the so-called family happiness!
