The weather was very hot, and some people had calculated the time and came to wait for Su Liuer to set up the stall. However, they didn't see her setting up the stall at the usual place, but she was shouting in the restaurant.
"Grass jelly honey! Cool and refreshing grass jelly honey! Welcome everyone to come into the store and taste it!" Her voice was crisp and pleasant, immediately attracting the attention of passers-by.
The people waiting for her to set up her stall walked up and took a look. Five cents a bowl?
"Hey, why did it become so expensive?!"
Su Liuer smiled but didn't reply. At this time, the waiter waiting at the door struck the gong in his hand. Passersby gathered around and the shopkeeper said loudly to everyone:
"I have good news for everyone! Starting today, Madam Su will be selling Grass Jelly Honey in our restaurant! Anyone who buys Grass Jelly Honey can sit comfortably in the store and enjoy it. What's more, if you spend more than thirty coins in our restaurant that day, you will receive a bowl of Grass Jelly Honey for free!"
After finishing speaking, the shopkeeper did not go in, but answered some people's questions at the door. Some people went directly into the restaurant to find Su Liuer to buy herbal honey.
In order to make the price increase seem more reasonable, Su Liuer asked the shopkeeper to use a bowl that was wide at the top and narrow at the bottom. At first glance, it looked like the portion was larger than before, and the icing powder was sprinkled a little more than before, which allowed diners to intuitively feel the benefits of eating in the store rather than standing on the roadside.
At the beginning, there were indeed fewer customers than in the previous few days, and no one was queuing, but people still came in to eat grass jelly honey.
People eating grass jelly honey inside can be seen through the door and windows outside. It seems that the people inside are really comfortable and cool, and they are enjoying themselves very much!
Gradually, more and more guests came.
"Why is this restaurant so much busier than yesterday?" A young man in brocade clothes asked Qingfeng nearby.
Qingfeng hurried to the restaurant to inquire a bit, then ran back to the young man in brocade clothes and continued to walk slowly with him, saying:
"Sir, the young lady who sold the herbal jelly honey has moved to the restaurant. The price has increased to five coins per bowl, and eight coins for two bowls. If you spend thirty coins at the restaurant that day, you can get a free bowl of herbal jelly honey. Now the restaurant is full of customers who come to enjoy this fresh food."
The young man in brocade clothes raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh?" He put away the folding fan in his hand, tapped it on his palm and said, "This young lady is quite interesting."
"Go and serve me a bowl." The people had already walked outside the restaurant. The young man in brocade clothes gave Qingfeng an instruction and walked to the second floor without looking around.
He had no interest in looking at the young lady selling herbal jelly honey.
However, when Qingfeng brought the fresh and cool grass jelly honey, he narrowed his eyes and took another sip.
The taste is different.
It's cooler than yesterday.
Others might not be able to feel it, but he, who had been accustomed to a life of luxury since childhood, could tell the change as soon as he tasted it.
"Go down and buy another bowl."
Qingfeng quickly took the white porcelain bowl he brought with him and went downstairs to buy grass jelly honey. Su Liuer looked at the porcelain bowl in front of her, which looked very expensive.
"Your master eats so fast?" The bowl was just brought up not long ago.
Su Liuer just asked casually and didn't expect anyone to answer her, so when Qingfeng didn't say anything, she didn't ask again and just took the money and gave it to Sheng.
Qingfeng went upstairs again with the white porcelain bowl. The young man in brocade clothes took another sip. He was sure that the herbal honey today was cooler than yesterday's.
"Is there anything different added to today's herbal jelly honey than yesterday's? Or is it placed in an icy container?"
Qingfeng shook his head and said truthfully: "None."
Even though he considered himself knowledgeable, he had never seen food with such a cooling taste.
"Go and invite Madam Su up and be polite to her." The young man in brocade clothes instructed Old Zhou.
Old Zhou bowed respectfully and hurried downstairs to find Su Liuer.
"Your master wants to see me? Why?" Su Liuer glanced upstairs.
Old Zhou was very respectful this time, and said sincerely, "My young master is interested in your food. Please do me a favor and let him meet you. Please!" As he said that, he took out a tael of silver from his sleeve.
