A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

After the man mixed the jelly and seasoning evenly, he started to use his chopsticks. He instantly showed a surprised expression after the first bite, and then started eating quickly.

While eating, he made a sound: "Hiss, hiss, hiss..."

The others who were waiting and watching saw the man sitting on the stool take a bite. Although he made a sound because of the spiciness, he still did not give up the idea of taking a second bite.

I knew that the jelly here must be delicious, and the chili oil must be good too.

The others also came forward.

"Boss, I want a bowl of mung bean jelly."

"Boss, one serving of mung bean jelly."

“Two servings of mung bean jelly”

"A bowl of mung bean jelly"

......

Zhang Yunyue saw that all the people who were waiting were crowding over, and it seemed that today's business was off to a good start.

"Everyone, take your time, don't crowd, and please line up, otherwise we won't know who to serve first."

"By the way, we also have cold noodles here. You can order cold noodles alone, or you can order both mung bean jelly and cold noodles."

After hearing this, everyone took the initiative to line up and wait.

"Boss, I want a bowl of mung bean jelly, with green onions instead of cilantro, and more chili."

And handed 8 cents to Zhang Xingyun.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment. Please find a stool at the back and sit down. Your mung bean jelly will be served to you in a moment."

At this time, Zhang's mother was cutting mung bean jelly, then put the cut jelly in a bamboo bowl and put it aside, allowing Zhang Yunyue to take it directly and put the seasoning in it.

On Zhang Yunyue's side, as soon as someone comes and states his requirements, Zhang Yunyue will quickly prepare all the ingredients for him. Later, the other party does not need to wait on the stool. After the person finishes speaking, Zhang Yunyue will pack the ingredients and hand it to the other party in more than 10 seconds.

The scene changed to the person on the other side finishing his request, counting the money and handing it to Zhang Xingyun, and Zhang Yunyue's mung bean jelly was already ready.

"Boss, I want a mixture of mung bean jelly and cold noodles, no green onions, cilantro, and more chili oil."

A young man stepped forward and handed over eight cents.

When Zhang's mother heard the young man say that he wanted a mixture of cold noodles and mung bean jelly, she immediately put the cut jelly and cold noodles together and handed them to Zhang Yunyue.

Zhang Yunyue took the bowl of jelly and cold noodles, quickly started putting the ingredients in, and then handed it to the man.

The young man walked to the back table with the bamboo bowl and stirred everything in the bowl evenly, making sure that the cold noodles and mung bean jelly were covered with ingredients.

I tried the mung bean jelly first, and was not disappointed. It was indeed delicious. It was very elastic when picked up, but not difficult to chew in the mouth. There was also the fragrance of mung beans in the mouth, the chili oil was fragrant and spicy, and there were also fried crispy peanuts.

I picked up another piece of cold noodles and started eating. The noodles were chewy and tender.

The man looked up and said to Zhang's father who was cleaning up the dishes.

"Boss, your cold noodles are really good. They are chewy and the chili oil is fragrant and spicy, but it is really appetizing. Not bad, not bad."

"That's good, that's good. I was just worried that it wouldn't taste good and affect everyone. If it tastes good, we'll come next time. We'll come here to set up a stall every day."

"Okay, boss. Looks like this summer is going to be good. It's been so hot these past few days that I haven't had any appetite."

When others heard the man say that the cold noodles were delicious, they also started ordering cold noodles, but most of the people behind him chose the mixed version to try both flavors.

A wave of people passed by, and only a few people were left eating at the table behind the stall. Zhang's mother and Zhang Yunyue could finally take a break. At this moment, they sold half of the cold noodles and mung bean jelly each.

The aunt who first packed the mung bean jelly also came back to return the bamboo bowl.

"Your mung bean jelly is really delicious. My family has tried it. We were planning to have it for breakfast, but everyone ate it. I wanted to have it for lunch."

"Oh, please fill three more bowls for me to eat at noon. Here, 24 cents. I brought a soup bowl myself. Just fill it and put it in for me."

"Oh, it's my fault, Auntie. It seems that everyone in the family likes to eat it."

"This is really delicious. My old man only has a few teeth left. He usually gets tired after eating. But today, he can eat this with just a sip. It's easy and filling, and it's really good."

"Come, Auntie, the seasonings for all three bowls are ready. I'll pour them into your soup bowl. Just stir them evenly when you go back to eat."

"it is good"

Just after the auntie left, a man who was eating jelly at the table saw the auntie packing up and leaving.

"Boss, you can take it away. Please pack me two bowls of this dish. I can take it home to let my parents have a taste after I finish eating it."

"I'm sorry, sir, we don't have anything to hold the jelly. The lady just took it away and is coming back to return the bowl."

"It's okay. How much is this bowl? I'll buy it."

"Oh, I see. That's fine. My father and his family used to sell bamboo bowls for one penny each. You can just give one penny each too."

"That's no problem. Please help me pack it up. I'll be done eating soon."

"Okay, I'll pack it for you now, and you can take it away when you leave."

After the man finished eating the jelly, he handed 18 cents to Zhang Xingyun and walked away with the bowl in one hand.

Zhang Yunyue thought that there would definitely be people who would want to take the food away in the future, and a bamboo bowl cost one cent each, and richer people wouldn't care about a cent, so maybe she could prepare a few more bamboo bowls every day so that if someone wanted to take the food away, they could take it away, and if not, they could just sit here and eat.

Otherwise, like just now, both tables were full and there were two people squatting on the ground eating.

"Dad, it seems like you should bring more bamboo bowls tomorrow so that you can sell them together with the bamboo bowls."

"Well, Yueyue, I think so too. Most people don't know about it today. Once they know, more people will definitely come to buy it."

Through the current business, Zhang's father also realized that his business is almost stable.

After eating, many people asked if I would come to set up the stall tomorrow.

Some people even said that they would come here to eat every day in the future.

Although some people were just talking nonsense afterwards, it at least proved that their mung bean jelly and cold noodles have won everyone's recognition.

"Boss, yours is the one that sells mung bean jelly, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong with this lady?"

"Yes, that's enough. Please give me a bowl of mung bean jelly. I heard from the neighbors that your mung bean jelly is the only one in town, and the chili oil is delicious, too. So, thinking that my son has been inattentive in studying these two days, I rushed over to buy it after hearing it. I even brought the bowl with me. Just help me fill the bowl."

"Okay, auntie, I'll make it for you right away."

Zhang Yunyue mixed the jelly seasoning, poured it into the bowl brought by the aunt, and handed the 8 cents she received to Zhang Xingyun for safekeeping.
