Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

Chapter 21: Afterglow of the Celebration

The days after the celebration were still very lively, and it lasted until the end of the last day. The food street became famous because of this celebration. Even after the celebration, the food street was open at night, and people flocked to the western Sichuan. Now it is open every night, and the business is booming every day. There are delicacies from all over the country. There are also many unheard-of foods, which attract many foreign merchants. The price of grain in Hu County is only about 10 cents more expensive than before because more and more grain merchants have settled in. It is still within the affordability of the people. Now every diligent family has a job and can make money. The food street is doing a booming business and is hiring people. There are dishwashers, hawkers, and debt collectors. County Magistrate Tian hired people to promote Hu County Food Street in teahouses and wine shops everywhere.

In addition, the author of the Huxian storybook "Sun Wukong" has published a new book. I heard that it will be told in the food street.

The most famous desserts in the food street are shaved ice and taro milk tea. These desserts are still very expensive for ordinary people. After all, ice cubes are hard to come by in summer and the tea tax is too high. However, this does not prevent many people from coming here. Recently, they opened a new store in the city. Many people came when they just opened. A few days before the opening, they had a 50% discount promotion. That day, the whole store was really full of people, and the queues filled the whole street. The business was very hot. Later, the original price was restored. Although there were fewer people, the business was still booming. The categories of the stores here are also somewhat different from those in the food street, but the stores have more varieties of desserts.

Recently, it has attracted many students to come here frequently. I heard that milk tea is very refreshing. It is helpful for studying, and the shop has private rooms. Classmates and friends come here to enjoy delicious desserts and play chess. It is a good place for leisure and study.

The news about Huxian Food Street spread all over the streets and alleys. Now it is the favorite place for locals and outsiders. The food street also invited a master to create a food street mascot to promote the food street. Now foreign tourists can get one for free. The mascot is very cute. Many people will buy a few more for their family or relatives and children.

As more and more people come to Hu County, Magistrate Tian has recruited many yamen runners. In order to ensure the safety of the county, there are also professional guides at the city gate. They have all been called to the county yamen by Magistrate Tian for a special lecture. As long as there is fraud to defraud passers-by and tourists, they will be beaten with 10 big boards. After returning the cheated silver, they will not be able to do this business again within one year. The punishment for the next crime will be doubled, and the portrait will be posted at the city gate for everyone to know. There will be rewards for those who report and expose, but the false accuser will be punished according to the punishment of the falsely accused.

In July, the people in the county began to plant late rice. This year, it depends on the late rice. Although the grain merchants have left the county one after another recently, because Hu County is still short of food, the price of grain is still much higher than that of other places. Grain merchants who are close are still happy to come and sell. In addition, it has become popular in Hu County to eat fried chicken with ice drinks recently. Many netizens and merchants from other places come to taste it. The food street is also open every night. Although there are not as many people as before, the food here still attracts many people. Because of the sacrificial celebrations at that time, Hu County has now become the most famous food attraction in Jiangnan. Many literati and poets have also written many poems for this place. Tian Xinger made his own special snacks on the food street, and quickly opened a formal store in the wealthy area west of the county, which also attracted many people. The store was crowded every day.

"Fuer, Yuze, let's go eat taro balls for dessert today. I'll treat you. I haven't eaten it for a long time."

"Sister, that shop is opened by you, right? The taste seems to be similar to what you did before." Tian Yuze said.

"Hehe, let's go, having free delicious food is not enough, you are so gossipy."

We went to eat dessert today and it was very lively. "It seems that a lot of foreign businessmen have come recently, as well as many Hu businessmen. The people on the street are just like in previous years during the Spring Festival. I didn't expect Hu County to change so much." Tian Fuer couldn't help but sigh.

"Yes, there have been great changes. It's a pity that my father's term of office will end next year, and we can't live here anymore." Tian Xing'er said with emotion. Their Tian family is not from the capital. When she was 2-3 years old, she often dreamed about her past life. Her father was also taking an exam, so the family lived in the countryside for some time. Later, when she grew up and the situation improved, her father also passed the exam, so they returned to the capital to accompany her father while waiting for the official selection. Tian Xing'er felt that she had been to so many places at such a young age, rotating from place to place, and she would start to leave after finally liking a place. But fortunately, she had a younger sister to entertain her, and she could also write storybooks with the teacher, but studying was a bit hard.

"I also like this place a little bit." Tian Yuze was also infected and sighed.

"It would be great if Dad could always work in one place in the future." Tian Fuer suddenly sighed.

"Fuer, you can't say that, spit it out." Tian Xing'er heard what she said, thinking that she was cursing her father for not getting promoted, and stopped her immediately.

"Ah, bah, bah." After saying this, Tian Fuer realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"You two should stop expressing your feelings so casually in the future. What is going on?" Tian Yuze looked at the two of them with disdain.

"Okay, eat quickly, and then go play in the front for a while." Tian Xing'er was also afraid that this would turn out to be a bad thing, so she immediately changed the subject.

Who knows if this sentence will come true one day in the future?
