Lu Yao took the silver and happily went to Aunt Wu's pancake shop.

Although the road is long, I don’t feel tired.

She worked in Yuan's house, but unlike in her previous life, she didn't have fixed weekends or holidays. Servants here really couldn't go out without the master's permission.

Of course there are no weekends or holidays.

Lu Yao thought to herself: I am hired here, and I don't have much freedom. Those who were bought here must be like being in prison, right?

Oh my, after she survives this ordeal of exile, she will definitely be her own boss!

Even if it’s for freedom, I won’t work anymore. I don’t want to work again in this life!

Arriving at the street where Aunt Wu's pancake shop was located, Lu Yao found that this place was indeed different from the last time.

Not to mention the aroma of pies wafting from the stalls all over the street, Lu Yao looked at the people on this street and found that there were obviously a lot more people than last time.

Especially in front of Aunt Wu’s pancake shop, there was really a long queue.

Lu Yao walked over and first saw the young man collecting money and packing the goods at the door. In the shop, the burly lady Wu was kneading dough with sweat all over her forehead.

Unlike the last time when only two of Wu's sons came to help, this time Lu Yao saw that there were at least three more people inside.

There was an older man, probably one of Aunt Wu’s husbands, and two girls, about seventeen or eighteen years old, probably Aunt Wu’s daughters.

If business is so good that we can’t handle it, the store will have to add more staff.

Including Aunt Wu and her two sons who had been helping out in the store, there are now a total of six people working in the small pancake shop.

The six people divided the work into two groups. Some were responsible for kneading the dough and making the pancakes, some were responsible for mixing the fillings and wrapping them, and some were responsible for watching the stove and controlling the temperature at all times.

Together with the guy at the door who is responsible for packing and cashiering, the family of six has a proper division of labor and works closely together, and they are busy like a top.

So, when the young man collecting money at the door saw Lu Yao and happily shouted into the house, "Sister Lu is here," Lu Yao quickly waved at him and said, "You guys go about your business. I'll just come over to take a look, explore the store, and buy a few pies."

That's impossible. Lu Yao is now the benefactor of the entire store.

When others come, it can be called "exploring the store", but when Ergouzi comes, it must be called "leadership inspection"!

Aunt Wu quickly stopped the work in her hands and let her husband do it. She wiped her hands on her apron, walked forward and warmly invited Lu Yao into the house.

The room seemed smaller with more people in it, and there was no way to get a table and chairs for entertaining.

Aunt Wu moved a stool for Lu Yao to sit on, turned around, took a clean bowl from the shelf, and poured a bowl of water from a large porcelain pot.

"Miss Lu, have a drink of water. The store is so busy right now that we don't have time to boil water for tea. When you come in the morning, boil a pot of water from home and bring it with you. We'll drink this in the store during the day. Don't mind."

Lu Yao, who was really thirsty, took a sip and said, "Why are you complaining? You even put sugar in this water!"

It seems that in this world, one of the courtesies used by ordinary people to entertain guests is to add some sugar to plain water.

"I'll just stop for a moment and leave. Don't be in a hurry to entertain me. I see that your shop is very busy." Lu Yao said with a smile.

"This is all thanks to you! How our business was before and how it is now? You are the Goddess of Wealth of our store!" Aunt Wu said excitedly.

When Lu Yao heard the words "Goddess of Wealth", the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"That's because you have good skills and high comprehension. You understand everything I say." Lu Yao said as she looked around the small room.

When I was outside just now, I felt like something was different here. Now that I'm inside, I realize that it's the layout that's different.

All the chopping boards, tables, etc. were gathered on the side of the stove, and the Wu family members stood and worked in a row.

Everyone works together to knead the dough, roll the pancakes, wrap the stuffing, and bake them, which shortens the work process and increases efficiency.

There is a faint smell of an assembly line.

After seeing this, Lu Yao couldn't help but praise: "I told you that you have a high level of understanding! I can tell just from the operation layout. This arrangement is so reasonable and worry-free."

I also saw several pots of sesame seed buns with fillings, some with pure meat filling, some with meat and vegetable filling, and some with pure vegetable filling.

Sure enough, a new variety was developed.

Of course, the original leek and diced egg filling was retained.

Aunt Wu said that as long as leeks are available on the market, she will keep making pies with this kind of filling.

Because this kind of stuffing in the pancake was the original one Lu Yao recommended, and it was also the starting point of their pie business, it was of great significance and was designated as the signature flavor by Aunt Wu.

"While Miss Lu is here, I want to ask you something."

"You said."

Aunt Wu seemed to hesitate for a moment before she said, "Since we started making pies in the store, the business has been unprecedented. Once the business is good, I'm afraid someone will have some ideas..."

"What? Someone's here to mess things up? To cause trouble?" Lu Yao was also shocked.

In the past, Ergouzi collected protection fees from every household here, claiming that anyone who paid would be protected by her, and that if anyone came to cause trouble, they could go find her.

Now, if what Aunt Wu said was true, that someone came to cause trouble, would she take action or not?

“No, no,” Aunt Wu waved her hands quickly, “I’m not here to cause trouble, it’s just… it’s just my guess, and I might be wrong.”

It turns out that after the pies became popular, there was a constant stream of people coming to buy them every day, and they had to queue up to pay.

With such a business, anyone who sees it can tell that the business is booming and making a lot of money every day.

Not long after, Aunt Wu discovered that among the people queuing up, there were people from the same profession coming in every now and then to buy.

Some sent their family members to buy, while others queued up by themselves.

Those who come to buy pies are guests, and Aunt Wu cannot refuse them. But looking at those people, their eyes are not honest and they keep looking into the house. Nine out of ten times they are looking at how the pies are made.

"Those shops also make pancakes, so I wonder if they want to steal our skills?"

If someone comes to learn from others, they will all make pancakes. They will look at the method used in the shop, go back and think about it, and they will be able to make one almost the same.

Then their sesame seed cake shops also started selling pies, and before long, many sesame seed cake shops also started selling pies.

If she sells more, Aunt Wu’s business will definitely be affected, so she naturally feels a little depressed.

"So that's what it is!" Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard it wasn't about a fight.

"To be honest, this kind of thing is inevitable."

Following trends, imitating, and even piracy are always difficult problems to solve in the business world.

If something sells well and makes money, there will definitely be a lot of people following suit and imitations will flood in.

Not to mention a world like Feng Dynasty, even in Lu Yao’s previous life, where the laws were relatively sound, it was still difficult to solve this problem.

Lu Yao advised Aunt Wu seriously, "Aunt Wu, listen to my advice, you have to let this matter go.

Pies are not difficult to make. Not to mention your colleagues, even men who cook frequently can figure out the recipe after eating it a few times.

This recipe cannot be kept.

Besides, there are no iron rules in Dafeng. Just because your family is the first to make pies, others can’t make this kind of food, right? "

"Miss Lu, I understand all these things, but I feel bad when I think about such a good deal that will be gone in just a few days!"

Who doesn't want to get rich? Aunt Wu just saw the hope of making money, but then it was shattered. The gap in her heart only got bigger.

"That may not be the case." Lu Yao smiled slightly.

Aunt Wu looked at Lu Yao in surprise, then clasped her fists and saluted her: "I hope Miss Lu can give me some advice!"

Dog planning is online again.

Lu Yao straightened her expression and said, "Don't forget, your pie has an advantage that no other family has."

"What's the advantage?"

“There’s a brand story!”

The story of the fairy cake has been widely spread, and everyone knows that the sesame cakes from Wu Da's mother's home were passed down from a fairy.

On the other hand, it is equivalent to the immortal only teaching Wu Da's mother's family how to make pies.

Anyway, it’s impossible for an immortal to teach everyone he meets, right?

So no matter how many pie shops appear in this world, Wu Da Niang’s will always be the first, the authentic one, and the one authorized by the immortals.

No matter how well others do or how many bakeries they open, they are just imitations by latecomers!

If you want to eat authentic pies, if you want to eat pies that are truly divine, you have to go to Aunt Wu’s Shaobing Shop!

“Oh my dear father, why didn’t I think of this!” After listening to Lu Yao’s analysis, Aunt Wu suddenly realized and finally realized the importance of “brand story” for the first time.

No wonder Miss Ergouzi repeatedly told me not to just sell cakes, but to sell stories as well.

It turned out that at that time, Miss Ergou had already considered various situations that might be encountered in the future.

Aunt Wu suddenly felt that Lu Yao in front of her was unfathomable and powerful!

"Ms. Lu, you are so amazing and so scheming. I only saw that you were good at fighting, but I didn't expect that you were even more intelligent! How come you are so amazing?"

Lu Yao: "Ahem, maybe it's because I'm good at both literature and martial arts!"
