Chapter 36 Nonsense
No matter how much old flour is left, it will eventually be used up. As soon as this new flour is used...
Thinking of Xia Mingyue’s upcoming embarrassment, Zhang Laifu I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
But soon, Zhang Laifu stopped laughing.
A few days have passed, but Xia Mingyue's business is as usual, without any changes.
On the contrary, because Xia Mingyue's business is getting better and better, his bun business is getting worse and worse, and even those regular customers are becoming less and less visible.
What's going on...
Zhang Laifu was puzzled, and in the end he could only focus on Jiang Erniu, who was making sesame cakes not far away.
Is this Jiang Erniu so timid and fearful that he doesn’t even dare to do such a thing?
He is really incompetent!
Zhang Laifu was angry and walked over with a dark face, "Brother Erniu, your business is getting worse and worse."
"Yes." Jiang Erniu nodded, "It's getting worse and worse." It’s bad.”
When he spoke, his face was relaxed and there was no trace of sadness at all.
It seems that Jiang Erniu really didn’t do this!
Zhang Laifu was a little annoyed, "Brother Erniu is not upset?"
"Upset." Jiang Erniu nodded again.
The expression is long.
Zhang Laifu, "..."
You are so upset!
He is upset!
Zhang Laifu was so angry that he almost broke all his teeth, but he pretended not to care and looked away, "Ms. Xia's business is really good."
"Yes. Ah." Jiang Erniu replied.
“It’s really enviable.”
“Yes.”
“Brother Erniu, you said that if Lady Xia stops selling cakes, our business will be Isn’t it certain that it can be restored?”
"It's hard to say..." Jiang Erniu thought seriously, "Maybe not."
How can you still get by with such a tricky mouth?
Even if you make do, you should be reluctant.
"Why?" Zhang Laifu was stunned, "Brother Erniu, how can you think so? In my opinion, our business is not good because of Lady Xia!"
"Laifu." Jiang Erniu's expression became serious, "I have thought about it carefully these past two days, and I feel that our business is not good. It is not because of Madam Xia, but because our craftsmanship is not good and we cannot make delicious food. something.”
"Think about it, if we can make delicious cakes or steamed buns, even if Madam Xia goes into business, it will not affect our business."
Nonsense!
The buns he makes are not delicious!
Before Xia Mingyue started setting up a stall, everyone who ate his steamed buns would praise them and say they were delicious!
This matter is Xia Mingyue’s fault!
Zhang Laifu was so angry that he trembled with anger at Jiang Erniu's words. He yelled and scolded Jiang Erniu, "Come on, you are just an incompetent guy. You are nothing else. From now on, you should stop showing up next to my bun shop." Don’t let me get contaminated by your poor attitude, ruin the feng shui of my family, and make me lose money with you!”
This good-looking guy actually started to curse.
Jiang Erniu did not expect that Zhang Laifu, who usually spoke in a gentle and gentle manner, would say such words at this time.
After being stunned again and again, Jiang Erniu remembered what Zhang Laifu had said in his ear these days.
Without exception, they all talked about Mrs. Xia’s family’s business, and their words were full of jealousy and hatred. Moreover, what they said in the food store that day was probably not a joke...
Jiang Erniu, who suddenly understood, looked at Zhang Laifu again with fear and disdain in his eyes.
After a moment, he lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, I will set up my stall somewhere else in the future, not in front of you." With such a vicious person, he was afraid that he would be led astray, and even more afraid One day Zhang Laifu's viciousness will be used on him.
Fortunately, at the end of that day, he felt uneasy about his conscience and finally took his hand back.
Otherwise, it would really be like this lucky gift...
Jiang Erniu felt sad and quite scared, but more importantly, he was worried about the future.
His sesame seed cake business is not good to begin with. The current place is okay, but if it were moved to another place, it would probably be even worse.
How about you really listen to what your uncle said, abandon this sesame cake stall, and follow your uncle to run escorts?
But it’s not easy to come to this sesame cake stall.
He learned it from an old master when he was young, and the old master didn’t want to teach him. He also worked as a miscellaneous worker for more than two years and gave money and gifts during festivals. This man made sesame seeds Craftsmanship is learned in the hands.
At that time, after the teacher finished teaching, he said with emotion that he was the fastest and best learner. Jiang Erniu was once proud of him.
This sesame seed cake stall also earned him a lot of money, which allowed him to support his father who was in poor health, get himself married, and support his two children.
But now...
Jiang Erniu is a little confused.
Looking up at Tian'er, then at the busy street, his eyes finally fell on Xia Mingyue's very busy stall in the distance.
I don’t know who Lady Xia learned this skill from...
Today’s stall was closed at the right time.
Pile the tables and stools against the wall, cover them with straw mats, and take the remaining dishes, chopsticks, spoons and other items back with you.
Needs to be carefully washed and boiled in a pot to disinfect.
After finishing all this, Xia Mingyue was too tired to move, so she just sat on the horse to relax.
Mrs. Lu wiped the water from her hands and said, "Make less noodles tonight and less stuffing tomorrow. Business is about making money, but you can never make all the money. You have to take care of your health at least. You can't." I'm too tired. If something goes wrong due to fatigue, no amount of money will be enough to pay for the medicine."
"Yes." Xia Mingyue nodded.
She fully agrees with this.
However, looking at the wasted money and not making any money, it feels like losing money!
Especially in the past two days, she made two new mattresses, two new pillows, and bought new sheets. Summer is coming soon, and she also needs to repair the roof and buy anti-mosquito tents...
After Zeng Liu's theft last time, she wanted to rebuild the courtyard wall and use it entirely with blue bricks!
When she wanted to expand her business, make enough money, and have nothing to worry about, she still wanted to take the time to collect the unique ingredients of this era and cook the unique delicacies of this era.
There are too many things to do, and everything requires enough money to support it.
There is no room for slacking off when it comes to making money.
But now it is obvious that her energy is limited...
Xia Mingyue frowned and thought.
......
The next day, Jiang Zhuguo came again to deliver black vegetables.
"Sister Xia, this is almost the last basket of black vegetables in my house. If sister Xia wants more, I will get them for you from the neighbor's house. The price is still the same and the weight is only a little more. Sister Xia Do you agree? "
Jiang Zhuguo was afraid that Xia Mingyue would disagree, so he spoke cautiously.
"Okay." Xia Mingyue agreed simply.
"That's great." Jiang Zhuguo breathed a sigh of relief, "But don't worry, Sister Xia, I will carefully select the black vegetables, and I won't give the bad ones to Sister Xia."
