Chapter 47 Business Comes to Your Door



She took a radish, cut off a third of it, and shredded it.

Add oil to a clay pot, crack an egg into it, and fry until golden brown on both sides. Then add water and radish, cover and simmer.

The man began to salivate at the smell of the fried eggs.

It's a bit of a shame that the flavor is blocked by the lid.

However, when the lid was lifted, a pot of milky white and fragrant soup was revealed.

He not only swallowed hard, but his stomach also started to rumble.

The surrounding shopkeepers and stall owners couldn't help but peek out, curious about what she was making today, since it smelled so good.

Mr. Xu, the owner of the grocery store, asked, "Mr. Yun, what dishes are you making today?"

Yun Zhiyi smiled and said, "It's just egg and radish soup."

"It smells so good."

Yun Zhiyi gently stirred the ingredients with a spoon to blend them together.

"Good ingredients make for delicious food."

Those who had eaten cabbage and cucumber nodded solemnly, agreeing with her statement.

If it weren't so expensive, they would have already devoured all the dishes.

The man couldn't wait any longer, and his eyes unconsciously drifted to the plump, white radishes.

It's unclear when someone will be willing to share the food with us.

He simply bought a radish, carried it, and went to a small restaurant.

I'll give you five coins, borrow the restaurant's kitchen, cut it in half, and learn to make a pot of radish and egg noodle soup.

As soon as the noodle soup was served, it attracted the attention of many diners.

The aroma was just too strong.

The man hurriedly picked up the spoon and scooped up a mouthful of soup.

After drinking it, I instantly felt a comfortable sensation as if my scalp was relaxing.

He enjoyed it, but the other diners were tempted and asked the restaurant to serve them the same noodles.

Upon learning that the person had brought their own ingredients to cook this, they suddenly lost their appetite.

They didn't think about the ingredients; they just assumed the guest was a skilled cook.

After finishing a large pot of noodles, the man patted his belly contentedly, picked up the remaining half of a radish, and swayed away.

After lunch, Yun Zhiyi was leaning against a pillar reading a book.

Then the man who had bought radishes earlier returned.

As soon as the man arrived at the stall, he saw that there was only one cabbage left and immediately said...

"Shopkeeper, I'll take this cabbage!"

Since radishes are so delicious, cabbage must be just as good. He was even a little impatient to get started.

Yun Zhiyi raised an eyebrow, gave him the last cabbage, and also threw in an egg.

The reason was that he was the only one who bought radishes and whole cabbages, and the first person always gets a discount.

The man was overjoyed to receive another egg.

Thinking back to the last time I had stir-fried eggs with cucumber, this time I had radish and egg soup.

Although one was fried and the other boiled, he still felt that the eggs were not quite right.

Looking back now, perhaps those eggs weren't ordinary eggs either.

After thanking him repeatedly, he quickly grabbed his things and ran back to the inn.

"Brother Tao, you've come at the right time. The boss is looking for you."

He had just returned to the inn when he ran into his companion, who responded to his words and hurried inside.

His companion, seeing him holding a large cabbage, scratching his head, looked puzzled and turned to follow him inside.

Downstairs at the inn, a few people were occupying a table, playing dominoes.

When he came back, she called out.

"Old Tao, where have you been again? You haven't even eaten. Have you found someone new, haha?"

"Oh dear, why are you carrying a cabbage?"

"Maybe it's a gift from someone you met on your own."

Everyone laughed and joked.

The man's eyes darted around, and he handed the cabbage to the person who followed him in, giving him some instructions.

"Xiao Liu, could you borrow the kitchen? Cut it into four pieces, take one for soup and one for stir-frying."

"Hey Tao, you haven't eaten yet? Just have the waiter cook something. Why are you only eating cabbage?"

The man pushed him, "Go when I tell you to, hurry up and do more."

The young man named Xiao Liu was completely bewildered. Seeing that the other party had already run upstairs, he could only go to the waiter to borrow the kitchen.

"Father!" The man knocked on the door of one of the rooms.

The middle-aged man inside the house was puzzled to see him beaming with undisguised joy.

"What's wrong? I was just looking for you. The restock is almost done, we'll leave tomorrow morning."

The man quickly closed the door. "Dad, I've found some good stuff again, and it's top-quality stuff."

The middle-aged man was puzzled, but also intrigued. "What kind of goods?"

The man then briefly told him about what had happened in the past two days.

After saying that, the middle-aged man looked at him with suspicion, his brows furrowed deeply, as if he were looking at a spendthrift son.

Seeing that he was about to reprimand him, the man quickly interrupted, "Dad, I promise I'm not lying. Otherwise, come down with me and try the cabbage."

The middle-aged man shook his head. "Even if the vegetables are really as delicious as you say, how delicious can they be? 150 yuan a head is already an exorbitant price. How much more can you add? Besides, the weather is hot now, and vegetables don't keep well. They'll spoil in a few days. Forget about selling them at the original price, I'm afraid no one would be willing to buy them even at half price."

"We can buy it chilled."

The middle-aged man was speechless with anger. "Ice is free? The cost is already high, and you're adding more. Fine, you're not cut out for business. Just stick to escorting goods and stop thinking about other things."

The man, however, was unwilling to give up. "Anyway, you should finish eating first."

Seeing that he was still not giving up, the middle-aged man shook his head and followed him downstairs.

Cloud-based vegetable shop.

Yun Zhiyi was dozing off with her eyes down when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps.

Then three men stood in front of the stall.

One of them was the man who came to buy groceries from her today.

The three men were tall and sturdy with rugged features. Because they were in a hurry, they walked quickly and looked aggressive.

The surrounding shopkeepers couldn't help but peek over, thinking he was there to cause trouble.
