The diners at other tables were also attracted and couldn't wait to try it to see what it tasted like.

"Shopkeeper Wang, please taste it."

Nier put the sweet and sour pork ribs on the table.

Each piece was covered with crystal clear thick sauce, which slowly flowed down. A small part of the soup accumulated at the bottom of the plate. The bright red color was very tempting.

A few white sesame seeds are sprinkled on top, and the color combination is just right.

Take a deep breath, the sour taste that is not pungent to the nose, accompanied by the sweet meaty aroma, echoes in the nasal cavity, making people drool.

The guest stretched his neck to look over here, but he was already surrounded by a group of people, so he had to stand up and walk closer.

Shopkeeper Wang picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece, put it in his mouth, and tasted it carefully.

What a divine delicacy this is, the sweet and sour soup soaks every corner of the mouth.

There are also some other spices, and the saltiness is just right. The mixture of several flavors makes people want to close their eyes.

Because of the addition of vinegar, the stewing time is not long, but it is exceptionally tender and the gravy overflows with every bite.

I opened my eyes and glanced around secretly. I saw that everyone was staring at me. If I asked them to start eating now, the plates would be licked clean.

Everyone was a little impatient, "Boss, is it delicious?"

"Say something~"

Shopkeeper Wang quickly reached out his chopsticks and picked up another piece, putting it into his mouth, and reluctantly uttered two words, "Delicious~"

Others who had been eager to try it all stretched their chopsticks towards the dish. Some were too late and were afraid of not being able to grab it, so they simply didn't even use chopsticks and started eating.

The corners of their mouths were shiny from eating so much that some even had a few sesame seeds stuck to them.

“Delicious~”

“It smells so good~”

"Shopkeeper, you are so unkind. How could you eat so much?"

"I'm the shopkeeper, what's wrong with eating one more piece?"

The guest who was watching couldn't help himself and saw some small pieces of meat and a little bit of soup on the plate.

"Can I have a taste? I'll pay for this bite later."

"Uh...try it. I won't charge you any money."

Shopkeeper Wang felt a little embarrassed. The soup would taste so good with the rice. He felt heartbroken watching him put all the soup into his mouth with a spoon.

When the chef learns how to make it, I will definitely ask him to make a special dish for me so I can enjoy it.

The last mouthful of soup was the essence of the dish, and the taste was amazing. The customer felt unsatisfied and his appetite was aroused. "Can I buy another plate?"

Shopkeeper Wang waved his hand quickly, "My chef doesn't know how to cook yet. Please come back in two days."

"Okay~"

The guest sat down at his seat, smacked his lips, savoring the taste, thinking that maybe it would be available tomorrow, so he decided to come back and eat it again tomorrow.

It's obvious at first glance that this is something that can make money, and the shopkeeper is eager to let the chef learn it as soon as possible.

Shopkeeper Wang led Ni'er and Lao San to a quiet private room, "Please take a seat, let's discuss the price. How much do you want to sell it for?"

Before, I made 25 cents per plate of braised pork when selling it to Lai Fu Restaurant. Now I should be able to raise the price. As long as both parties can make money, that’s the result I want.

"Share it with us. Give us 30 cents for each plate sold."

Shopkeeper Wang did not think the price was expensive. On the contrary, he thought it was reasonable and the other party did not ask for an exorbitant price.

A plate of sweet and sour spare ribs can be sold for at least one or two taels of silver. After deducting miscellaneous expenses, giving Ni'er and the others thirty cents can still make a lot of money.

I guess the girl quoted such a cheap price because she thought I helped her at that time.

She is a smart person. She can make such delicious dishes. She will definitely make other delicious dishes in the future. If the price I offer is higher than that of Lai Fu Restaurant, I will definitely give priority to my own restaurant in the future.

Ni'er looked at Shopkeeper Wang's thoughtful expression and wondered if her price was too high. He disagreed and was about to ask for a lower price when he was interrupted.

"Thirty cents is not much. You can raise it. How about forty cents? But I have a condition."

Nier was very excited when she heard that the price had increased by ten cents. "You say."

"If you have any new dishes in the future, make them for me first."

So that's what he meant. Qianwei Restaurant and Laifu Restaurant have always been rivals. No wonder Manager Wang said that.

"Okay, I agree."

It sounds like a good deal.

After discussing business, the two men walked out of Qianwei Restaurant in a very good mood. It was an additional source of income without any effort on their part, and it was wonderful just thinking about it.

In another store in the town, someone was selecting fabrics. I saw a few very beautiful and eye-catching pieces and thought how beautiful they would be if I could make clothes out of them for my daughter.

Shopkeeper Lu stepped forward and said, "Sir, you have a good eye. These pieces of material have just arrived. I can guarantee that the colors and patterns are not available anywhere else. We are the only one of ours."

"Recently, many people have come to ask about this, but once they heard the price, they all stopped talking."

It's just a few pieces of material, how expensive can it be? "How much are you selling it for?"

Shopkeeper Lu looked at the visitor. The clothes he was wearing were not cheap, but they looked a little old. His family should not be short of money. "One yuan and three taels of silver."

No wonder no one bought it, it was indeed not cheap, three taels was indeed a bit expensive. While I was hesitating, two women came into the store.

A woman dressed in a fine brocade robe of the pattern Yunyan, a pleated Ruyi moon skirt, and a veil hat. Although I couldn't see clearly, I could feel that there must be a beauty inside.

The person next to her was dressed as a maid, but she was already very pretty, with extremely delicate eyebrows and eyes. I was so stunned that I wondered how beautiful the young lady must be.

The maid looked a little anxious, "Miss, there are so many people outside, what should you do if you get bumped into? It would be better to ask the cloth shop owner to send it home so that you can choose slowly."

"Now that you're out, stop talking so much and help me choose which one is right for me."

The young lady wearing a veil immediately saw the cloth in the woman's hand, walked forward a few steps, and stretched out a delicate white hand with pink nails.

The woman was amazed when she saw it. She only knew that there was a red flower that could be used to dye nails, but she didn't know that there were flowers of this color that could also be used. It was so beautiful that the hand alone was enough to make people unable to take their eyes off it.

He randomly pulled out a piece of fabric and measured it on his body, "How about this one?"

The maid took a careful look and said, "It suits your complexion very well. It's beautiful. I've never seen such a pattern before."

Shopkeeper Lu smiled and said, "This is a new style. We are the only one that has it. Miss, you have a good taste."

"Those five pieces of material stacked together over there all look good. Why don't you try them all out?"

The young lady looked at her aunt who had been sizing her up, "Which of these materials do you like? After all, you came here first, and I won't take away someone else's good things."

The aunt realized that the man was talking to her, so she decided to just give him three taels of silver.
