Chapter 785 New Product Milk Tea Dog Egg's eyes lit up. As soon as he heard it was delicious, he started to get excited.
"That……"
Lu Qingyang found his conflicted expression amusing, so he deliberately cleared his throat and put on airs:
"Ahem, call me uncle and I'll agree to help you figure out this new dish."
Dog Egg fell silent.
It wasn't that he disrespected Lu Qingyang; it was just that he had gotten used to calling him "Brother Qingyang" over time, and changing it all at once felt awkward.
“I call you sister-in-law, and you call me brother. This generational hierarchy is a complete mess. From now on, you have to change how you address me and call me uncle.”
Gou Dan shook his head like a rattle drum, his reasoning thorough and direct: "No way! If I call you uncle, then I'll have to call Sister Chen Mo aunt, right? Auntie, auntie, that makes me sound so old. Sister Chen Mo is so beautiful, I can't be called old."
Lu Qingyang was almost bursting with laughter at his twisted logic, but managed to suppress it: "Then you can still call her sister, but you have to call me uncle."
The allure of the new spot is like a guji, scratching and scratching inside the dog's egg.
He glanced at Lu Qingyang's composed expression, then thought about his own sales performance, which desperately needed saving...
Ultimately, the desire for new business opportunities in the food industry narrowly triumphed over the stubbornness and pride that led to the end.
He lowered his head and mumbled something in a voice so soft it was almost inaudible: "...Uncle."
"What? I didn't hear you." Lu Qingyang deliberately picked at his ear, unable to suppress the smile on his lips.
Gou Dan took a deep breath, as if he had made a tremendous decision, raised his head, and spoke a little louder, but still with a hint of shyness: "Uncle Lu... Uncle Lu!"
After shouting those three words, his face turned red.
"Yes!" Lu Qingyang responded loudly and cheerfully, his face beaming with joy.
He patted Gou Dan's head with satisfaction. "That's right. Come on, Uncle will get the new snacks ready for you."
Lu Qingyang spent a whole day tinkering in the kitchen and finally produced the finished product.
Dog Egg carefully picked up each of the still-warm pastries, first bringing them close to his nose to sniff. The rich milky aroma of the coconut balls and the sweet, milky scent of the egg tarts filled his nostrils, making him swallow hard.
He took a bite of the golden coconut ball first.
The outer layer of coconut flakes is crispy and has a caramelized aroma, while the inside is unexpectedly soft and fluffy. The milky flavor melts in your mouth instantly, and the sweetness is just right, without being cloying at all.
"This is great!" His eyes lit up, and he immediately started calculating. "It's fragrant and soft, and doesn't have so many crumbs. It'll definitely attract dolls."
Then, his gaze shifted to the egg tart that looked even more unusual.
He tentatively took a bite, and the crispy tart crust made a soft "crunch," followed by an incredibly smooth filling. It slid down his throat without him even chewing, filling his mouth with a rich aroma of eggs and milk.
Dog Egg was stunned. He looked down at the remaining crescent-shaped egg tart in his hand and after a long while, he blurted out, "How did you make this? It's so crispy and tender, just like eating steamed egg custard, but much more fragrant!"
His calculations were quite precise: coconut balls were easy to eat, egg tarts looked high-end, and neither of these pastries crumbled like peach shortbread, and both tasted fresh – definitely a powerful tool to capture the appetites of his customers.
Dog Egg licked the crumbs from the corner of his mouth, his face full of confidence, "These two things are sure to be a hit."
Those few snacks sold out quickly, especially the egg tarts and coconut balls, which became a must-order for customers with children.
Dog Egg got his wish and received a rather substantial commission from his mother. He was beaming with joy, walking with an air of confidence.
With business booming here, Lu Qingyang's restless mind started coming up with new ideas again.
Watching the customers enjoy the crispy pastries, he sometimes felt thirsty, and drinking tea alone seemed a bit monotonous.
He thought he should come up with some thirst-quenching and fun items to sell, something that would also be profitable, fresh, and delicious.
A few days later, he returned with a new product.
"Qingyang, what's this new thing?" Ma Hongxia asked curiously as she approached.
While boiling water, Lu Qingyang explained with a smile, "It's milk tea. When you pour hot water over this powder, it has a milky aroma and is sweet."
He pointed to the black round granules, "Well, I call these pearls. They're made from tapioca flour. Once cooked, they're chewy and bouncy, which is quite interesting."
He skillfully began the process, brewing the tea, adding sugar, and then scooping in the cooked and cooled black "pearls".
A unique drink with a warm color and countless black beads at the bottom is ready.
"Here, everyone, have a taste." Lu Qingyang handed the cups to everyone.
Dog Egg was the first to take it, inserted the straw, and took a big gulp.
First, a smooth, warm liquid with a unique milky and tea aroma glides down your throat.
Immediately afterwards, one after another, the chewy "pearls" were sucked up, bouncing around in his mouth. The texture and taste were so novel that his eyes widened.
"Wow, this is fun!" he mumbled, taking a few more sips and studying the black beads tumbling at the bottom of the cup.
Ma Hongxia and Liu Dong tried it and both felt that although it was strange, it tasted really good, especially the pearls inside, which were very interesting to eat.
"This drink can be sold as a side dish. It's getting cold now, and a hot drink would be so comforting. Let's make it three cents a cup!"
Lu Qingyang made the decision, saying that he felt the price was neither too high nor too low, just right for 그 to try something new.
Ma Hongxia calculated the costs briefly and nodded: "The price isn't expensive, and it looks quite unique, so it should be popular."
Lu Qingyang, however, waved his hand and made an even bolder decision:
"The new product has just come out, and it's not enough to just talk about it. We need to let everyone taste it for themselves. We'll send it out for three days first. Every customer who comes to eat here will get a free cup at every table. That's settled."
He was very confident in what he had created, believing that once people tasted it, he would have no trouble getting repeat customers.
The customers who came to eat at first didn't think much of the milk tea; they just found it novel.
However, after trying it, the female writer was amazed by the taste, praising it repeatedly and saying she couldn't forget it.
"Wow, this drink tastes so good!"
"It's fragrant and smooth, and the chewy beads inside are quite interesting."
"It makes me feel warm and comfortable all over after drinking it."
After the three-day free trial period, bubble tea was officially put on the market for sale, priced at three cents a cup.
Sure enough, the female customers who tried it became the most loyal repeat customers. When they came to eat, a cup of milk tea with a few spoonfuls became the standard order.
Sometimes, even without eating, they will make a special trip to buy a cup of tea, carrying it around and drinking it as they go, becoming a novel sight.
Needless to say, for children, ordering bubble tea is enough to attract them.
Seeing that bubble tea was dominating the bubble tea girl group, Lu Qingyang's business acumen kicked in again.
So he came up with a recipe for a qi-boosting soup.
