Chapter 47 Queue up to get the number plate and close the stall early to buy roast chicken

As soon as Mr. Zhou said these words, the already busy shop suddenly became even more crowded.

Xiao Xia on the side was shaking her hands and almost didn't have time to collect the money. Later, she got used to the rhythm and gradually got better.

After selling for almost an hour, the crowd finally became smaller and smaller. Most of the people in the county had three meals a day, so everyone hurried back to cook lunch.

The two sisters breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and laughed.

"Would you like some noodles? I'll ask someone to bring you two bowls." Duan Qingqiu suggested.

"it is good."

She stood up and was about to leave when Xiaoxia suddenly exclaimed: "Sister, we are almost gone!"

I looked over and saw that there were only two tubes left in the vat.

It turned out that before I knew it, it was basically sold out!

Duan Qingqiu thought for a moment and said decisively: "Peel all the pears I brought and bake them now."

There was no time to enjoy the noodle soup slowly, so they took two bites of steamed buns with hot water and then started to get busy.

Peel, open the pear, and put in the herbal medicine prepared by Duan Qingqiu. It is not the kind used to treat wind and cold. It only has an auxiliary effect, but it is indispensable in order to achieve a certain therapeutic effect.

The two sisters immersed themselves in their work and allowed the surrounding vendors to observe and look at them.

It is impossible to learn these recipes and methods in a short period of time. Even if you can make them, you must first have pears.

"Sister, I finally understand why you dared to raise the price to twenty-three cents." Xiaoxia whispered while peeling, "Our business is unique. In my opinion, fifty cents per tube is not enough." I don’t have to worry about selling it.”

Duan Qingqiu smiled: "Don't be too big-hearted. Nothing in this world is irreplaceable. After all, civilians make up the majority. Only high quality and low price can go a long way."

Xiaoxia responded "I know" as if she understood something, and sped up her hand.

Twenty or so bottles were all put into the tank, and the two of them were just about to take a break and drink water, when many more people came one after another in front of the car.

Some of them tried it yesterday and never forget it. Others heard about it from relatives and friends and plan to try it. There are also a small number of repeat customers who have money at home and plan to have a tube every day.

It was just after noon, and there were even more people than in the morning!

Duan Qingqiu told everyone very apologetically that since everything in the stove has been sold out, we can only make it now, and it will probably take half an hour to wait. Why don't you go shopping elsewhere or go home first and come back later.

"What if we come later and you sell out?" someone shouted.

She was stunned, but she thought of a good idea.

Tear off a few pages from my sister's little account book, cut them into the size of dried tofu, and write down the numbers from smallest to largest.

"Half an hour later, I will start calling the number. Whoever is called will buy based on this note. If you don't wait for the number, it is equivalent to saying that if the second number does not buy, it will be the third number's turn, and the order will be postponed."

Maybe not all people in Qingzha County are literate, but they still know the commonly used numbers, and you can understand the meaning after a little explanation.

"Today I will issue twenty-six number plates, and they will be gone after they are distributed."

As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly became nervous, and everyone stretched out their hands to ask for them. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen of them were handed out.

Then every time someone came, Duan Qingqiu explained the situation to the other person. If he was willing to wait, he would give him a note. If he was not willing, he would politely invite him to come back next time.

Soon, the rest was gone.

"Sorry, everything in the stove is booked. Please come back tomorrow."

After Xiaoxia said this for the eighth time, she watched the guests go away with some pain. She paused and turned her head with worry: "Sister, we have rejected so many people. You said, the ones we sent out... those Will you buy the note on time?"

Don't wait until you have both ends empty and more than twenty tubes of pears smashed into your hands.

Duan Qingqiu drank some water to moisten his throat and said with a smile: "The pears are not baked well, so they can't be sold in the first place. Distributing those number plates is a gimmick, and it also saves everyone from losing their desire to buy. As for buying or If we don’t buy it, there is actually no loss for us.”

After hearing these words, the little girl finally straightened her thoughts and scratched her head in embarrassment: "That's right."

While they were chatting, two young women came together. One of them showed the note in his hand and said shyly: "Can I buy it just by showing the note?"

"Yes." She glanced at the number and smiled back, "You are number eight. It will be out in about half an hour. I will call you then."

The girls nodded obediently and stood aside to whisper.

"It's really interesting. I heard that some big and lively shops in Kyoto also do this."

"Hehe, when your brother finds out that you stole the note, bought the pears, and ate them all, do you think he will beat you?"

"Hmph, we're both half and half. Don't even think about running away. I'll push you out when the time comes. Anyway, my brother can't bear to touch a finger of yours..."

"Oh, what are you talking about..."

Duan Qingqiu smiled and opened the wooden cover.

The time has come, turn on the furnace.

"Guest Officer No. 1——"

"me!"

"Guest Officer No. 2——"

"Here, here!"

In less than one cup of tea, twenty-six tubes were wiped out.

It is true that two or three of them did not show up, but there were far more people squatting at the spot. They were quickly divided up by the people behind, and there were at least a dozen people left, still waiting eagerly.

"Is this gone?"

"It's not yet time, let's continue baking, we can afford it!"

Duan Qingqiu was also helpless.

Although I am very confident in my craftsmanship, this is only the second day after all.

I’m not familiar with the place, I haven’t got a good reputation yet, and it’s not an attractive specialty food. Who would have thought that it would be so popular?

Just these twenty tubes, she brought them on a whim.

"Come tomorrow. It's the same time. It may not be the same place. Anyway, it's just this street. Everyone will come by then. Please look for more trouble."

She and Xiaoxia greeted each other separately and received a bunch of words such as "You must bake more tomorrow" and "Remember to leave a tube for me".

The two sisters agreed one by one, packed up their things, pushed the cart and escaped.

I left early today. The streets were very lively, with people coming and going and selling everything.

Duan Qingqiu first went to buy some paper, ink, pens and inkstones. When he saw something similar to a pencil, he also picked up a few to make it easier to carry around.

Then, I went to the drug store to restock.

What she bought were inconspicuous medicinal materials that ordinary doctors would never use, so a large pack only cost about fifty yuan.

The most expensive item in terms of cost is honey.

A small jar costs three cents.

Last time she was reluctant to part with it and shamelessly bought half a jar, but the shop owner gave her a few looks.

I made a big deal today and got two cans!

Later, I bought some food here and there, fruits and vegetables, and a roasted chicken.

"Sister, let's have roast chicken tonight?" Xiao Xia was happy but a little nervous, "Isn't it too extravagant? I just ate meat yesterday and chicken today..."
