Mind reading, taking the rental house through the whole village crying

Chapter 135 The Shop Owner Arrives

Zhang Jinlan explained.

"Mother is right. We have to have expensive food and cheap food as well. Just like the restaurants in town, some meat dishes are sold for two taels of silver per plate, but they also sell stir-fried seasonal vegetables for fifteen cents per plate. If we only sell expensive food, I'm afraid our shop will have fewer customers. No matter how small the mosquito is, it's still meat."

Jiang Eryong, who is well-informed, agreed.

He drew aside the curtain and came over.

I was just about to ask if the mung bean soup was ready when I heard my mother's words.

"Then it's settled. Eryong, come and eat watermelon. Siyin, go and change your eldest brother and ask him to come and eat. Eryong, after you and Yamato finish eating, go outside the shop and shout that we have a new product. It's called Tangshui Lao, and it costs twenty cents a bowl."

"it is good."

Jiang Eryong nodded.

He picked up a piece of watermelon and started eating it.

The cold watermelon is very juicy.

He was so dry-mouthed and sweaty while talking to the guests.

The heat disappeared instantly.

After eating the watermelon, the two brothers exchanged it for Jiang Siyin.

Start hawking.

A regular customer ordered a bowl out of curiosity.

When the syrup was served, he looked cold: "Isn't this still mung bean soup? Why is it so much more expensive just because of a new name?"

Jiang Eryong hurried to explain.

"It's different. The bowl is bigger than the cup and holds more. Also, take a spoon and try it. The good stuff is at the bottom." Jiang Eryong replied quickly.

The watermelon cubes and taro balls sank to the bottom.

So on the surface, it looks like there is only mung bean soup.

The man took the spoon and scooped a spoonful with doubt.

"Hey, what's this red thing? Is it a fruit? And what's this purple thing?"

The customer's exclamation attracted other people in the shop.

All eyes turned towards him.

Jiang Eryong didn't explain.

He gave a mysterious smile.

Even if you tell the guests, they won’t understand, so it’s better not to tell them and leave them a sense of mystery.

"Oh wow, it's delicious, it must be a fruit, but I've never seen a fruit of this color, and this purple thing, it's soft, a little chewy, and sweet inside and out.

It's really delicious, waiter, I just blamed you wrongly, no wonder it's called sugar water lao, you have to scoop it out and eat it, it's really much better than just drinking mung bean soup."

After the man tasted the sugar water, his expression changed very quickly.

He had a cold face just now, but now he looks very satisfied.

"Give me a bowl too."

"Me too, give me a bowl to try."

"It's only twenty cents. Even if I eat ten bowls, it's still not as much as a meal I eat in a restaurant. Serve it quickly. It's so hot."

“…”

Someone is there to support the actor.

Five bowls were sold out quickly.

Late noon.

We started having lunch in the backyard of the shop.

I didn't go out to buy anything today.

Qian Xile cooked a full pot of porridge in a casserole. Each person took a meat pie and drank it with the porridge, which tasted delicious.

After dinner, when Zhu Yingqiu was helping to wash the pots and dishes, someone knocked on the backyard door.

Jiang Siyin opened the door to the backyard.

Standing outside was a woman in her forties.

She was wearing dark yellow brocade satin, which was expensive but a little faded.

On both wrists were silver bracelets.

There was also a silver hairpin in her hair.

Compared to Zhang Jinlan, who wrapped her head with tattered linen, she looked much richer.

She just strode in.

"I'm Wan, the owner of the shop. I happen to have nothing to do today, so I came to the shop to check on the peach trees. You guys go about your business."

Wan held her chin high as she spoke.

After she briefly introduced herself, she ignored the Jiang family.

"Don't pick my peaches secretly. When you rented the shop, I'm sure the agent told you that I would bring people to pick the peaches when they are ripe."

Wan walked under the peach tree.

Stretch out your fingers and count them one by one.

The peach tree is quite old.

There are about a hundred peaches on it.

"Don't worry, we won't pick it."

Zhang Jinlan's voice was somewhat cold.

This shop owner doesn't look like someone who is easy to deal with.

Who cares about this broken peach of hers?

It's so tiny, so you don't know how sour it is.

How can the watermelon sent by immortals be as delicious as it is?

"I just looked at the front of the shop. It seems that your business is good. The shop is full of people, all men. I originally wanted to come in from the front of the shop, but it was inconvenient with so many men, so I went around to the backyard. So, what do you sell in your shop?"

Finish counting the peaches.

Wan asked Zhang Jinlan for the sake of conversation.

"Oh, not much to sell, just some ordinary green bean soup."

Obvious cliché.

How could Zhang Jinlan say that?

"Mung bean soup? There are so many shops selling mung bean soup on the street, why is your business so prosperous? You must be kidding me. Don't worry, I don't run a shop, why are you so wary of me? I wish your business is prosperous, so that my shop will be more prosperous."

Wan laughed dryly twice.

"Mom, give me three bowls of mung bean soup."

Coincidentally, before Zhang Jinlan could say anything, Jiang Eryong lifted the curtain and came over.

Sun Pingmei and Zhang Yanzi hurried to make soup for him.

It was so fast that only a dozen seconds passed when Jiang Eryong left with the tray.

"As you can see, we sell mung bean soup. Oh, and we also sell pancakes, which are just ordinary pancakes. I don't know why our business is so good. It may be because the location of the shop is good. It's good for us."

Zhang Jinlan was cautious.

Instead, she began to praise the shop.

"Indeed, the location of my shop is excellent. When you rented it, you also took a fancy to its location. Okay, I should leave now. Remember, don't touch my peaches."

Wan glanced around the backyard with a proud look.

I don't know what she is looking at.

After saying that, he turned and left.

Jiang Siyin closed the back door.

Zhang Jinlan's face looked a little bad.

So is Jiang Fubao.

She always felt that this Wan family would cause trouble in the future.

A landlady who has no shortage of money is actually afraid that even her peaches will be stolen.

You can buy a whole basket of peaches for a few cents on the street.

Who cares?

Soon, this little incident was forgotten by them.

All the sweet soup is sold out today.

Who wouldn't be happy to get a few taels of silver?

The Jiang family got on the ox cart with smiles on their faces and went home.

Meanwhile on the other side.

In a private house.

Sun Lai Di and her sister Sun Si Mei huddled in a corner crying.

"Sister, I'm in pain. My body hurts so much."

Sun Simei lifted up her clothes.

Her back was covered with raised whip marks.

No bloodshed.

It's just swollen and a little bruised. This kind of injury requires a lot of force. If you use more force, it will bleed.

The people who beat them were the thugs in the house.

Experienced.

Fang Wanru standing by wasn't much better.

All three had scars on their bodies.

"boom--"

"You three, have you reflected on your actions? Everyone else has been sold, but you three are the ones causing trouble. When it comes to choosing, you act crazy and stupid, wasting my time. Tomorrow, Madam Liu's family in town wants to buy three girls. I will take you there. If you cause trouble again, hmph, I will collect your bodies!"

Suddenly, the door of the dark room was kicked open.

The human trafficker came in and started cursing.
