Ah Zhi let go of his arms and took half a step back. Most of his face was hidden in the dark, with an unclear expression.

"I……"

"Going to drink?" Duan Qingqiu suddenly smelled something, walked forward and sniffed hard, and then said firmly, "Just going to drink!"

The man stood there without any rebuttal.

She wrinkled the tip of her nose and glanced at the other person with dissatisfaction. Looking at the silent look, she felt that she had lost her temper again. Finally, she had to sigh and said helplessly: "If you can't come back on time, at least go to the stall to fight." Say hello, even ask someone to send a message? Do you know that I have just thought about all the bad things, and even planned to go to the Yamen to report the crime after dawn. You are really..."

In the darkness, she suddenly felt that the man's beautiful eyes seemed to become extraordinarily bright.

It is more dazzling than the stars in the sky, and when it twinkles, it seems like the Milky Way is flowing.

She couldn't help but choked and muttered: "I don't know why I'm so happy..."

"I'm hungry." Ah Zhi said.

"Humph, you only know how to cook." She turned around, "Who told you not to go home on time? The meal will be finished and it won't be your share! Besides, you went to drink and didn't eat the food?"

"I don't like the food there, and I don't like the wine there."

"Hey, that's amazing. The food in a restaurant can be worse than what we cook at home?"

"Well, it's not as delicious as home-cooked food."

The voice was as cold as ever, without the slightest hint of compliment. It was precisely because of this that Duan Qingqiu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips.

Huh, this kid has a conscience and has not spent all this time in vain. He knows in his heart that a gold nest and a silver nest are not as good as his own doghouse.

"Well, why don't you hurry back to your kennel... Why don't you change your clothes in your room? It smells like alcohol, and the agarwood fragrance can't cover it up. It smells so bad!"

"it is good."

Looking at the man's back, Duan Qingqiu's hanging heart finally fell to the bottom.

But there are still some vague things going through my mind. I can’t tell what it feels like, but in short, I feel a little uncomfortable.

But when he thought of the work he had to do next, this inexplicable emotion was forgotten again.

Forget it, make money is the most important thing, think about other things later when you have some free time.

After a quick dinner, everyone started making facial cream again.

Of the more than one hundred bottles I brought over today, less than half of them were sold.

The sale is just around the corner.

After the bottling was completed, the sealing and other matters were handed over to Xiaoxia and Xiaodong. Duan Qingqiu entered the kitchen, took out the melon seeds that had been soaked for more than an hour from the seasoning pot with different flavors, and started to turn on the fire and stir-fry.

Although the last step is stir-frying, it is completely different from those in roasted seeds and nuts shops. Its main purpose is not to stir-fry, but to dry it.

When all the water in the melon seeds is roasted, they immediately turn from soggy to crunchy.

After finishing their work, the other three people arrived smelling the fragrance and each received a handful.

"This smell..."

"It's different from what we usually eat..."

"It's delicious." Ah Zhi concluded.

"As long as it's delicious." Duan Qingqiu was also very happy seeing everyone eating happily.

In modern times, this is something she would never dare to think about.

The pharmacist actually prepared a secret recipe for roasted seeds and nuts!

"Sister, what is that?" Foodie Xiaodong pointed to a small pot in the corner and asked curiously.

"Oops, I almost forgot about it!"

When you open the lid, a strong fragrance hits your nostrils.

Everyone took a closer look and saw that it was a pot of peanuts soaked in marinade.

"Braised peanuts are actually not suitable to eat in this season. In the summer, while catching the cold, peeling braised peanuts and drinking a little wine... Well, our family does not advocate drinking."

Under the eldest sister's glance, both Xiaoxia and Xiaodong nodded in confusion.

His eyes fell on the tallest man. Duan Qingqiu raised his eyebrows. Ah Zhi immediately nodded solemnly: "Yes, I won't drink."

She was satisfied and said with a smile: "So I only made a small pot as a sample."

"Sister, your cooking is so novel and delicious, why don't we sell it ourselves?" Xiaoxia couldn't help but ask.

The little girl's head began to crackle with accounts again.

If you sell this, how much more money will you make!

Duan Qingqiu shook his head: "There are so many profitable businesses, it's impossible to do everything. Besides, selling this kind of food is very scattered and troublesome. Moreover, we don't know anything about the purchase of goods. It's not worth the risk. As the saying goes, It’s better to treat a distant relative than a close neighbor, so it’s better to treat it as a small gift in exchange for the good friendship of the neighbor.”

Ah Zhi raised his thin eyelids: "Are you planning to go to someone else again?"

"Hehe." She raised her chin proudly, "What is calculation? This is called win-win!"

The next day.

After finishing the morning market, Duan Qingqiu carried seven or eight oil paper bags and went to the stall next door.

Lao Gan couldn't wait for a long time. When he saw someone coming, he hurriedly greeted him.

"Boss Duan..."

The already slightly blue eye sockets became darker and deeper, showing that he barely slept last night.

Duan Qingqiu didn't say much. He just pulled out a small area, spread out the oil paper packages one by one, and gestured: "Try it."

The middle-aged man squinted his eyes and looked at them one by one.

He had seen a lot of speculators, but the ones in front of him were slightly darker in color and seemed different from those on the market.

Picking one up and putting it into his mouth, his eyes lit up.

After tasting the first one, I went to eat the second one with a reluctant heart, and was immediately conquered by the new taste.

After tasting all the oil-paper buns, Lao Gan was still a little unsatisfied.

He licked the corner of his mouth sheepishly: "As expected of Boss Duan, it is indeed an exclusive secret recipe. I have traveled all over the country for so many years. Although I sell raw products, I have also eaten a lot of roasted seeds and nuts from various places. The types you have here, Apart from the spiced and salty flavors, I have never tasted anything else... Of course, even the two similar flavors seem to be different."

The man paused, as if he didn't know how to describe it. He hesitated for a long time, then clapped his tongue and said, "Generally, roasted seeds and nuts have a salty taste in your mouth, and the nuts will be lighter, but yours has a faint fragrance in your mouth. The kernels inside have a rich flavor, and after eating so much, my mouth doesn’t feel dry at all, which is really amazing.”

Duan Qingqiu smiled: "Then, I wonder if Uncle Gan is willing to cooperate with me?"

"Of course! It's just...the income from the first few months, can I get more, my eldest son has just been admitted to the academy, I..." Lao Gan blushed and lowered his head, "When I get through this period, I promise--"

"No need." She interrupted loudly, "Except for providing the secret recipe, I will not be involved in anything else. You don't need to give me any money now. When the business is stable, you can just give me a commission."

The middle-aged man raised his head suddenly, with a look of disbelief on his face.
