A tragic journey through ancient times, trying to make money

"Boss, I want some spicy chicken noodles. I've never heard of this way of eating spicy chicken. Let me try it first." said the first man who entered the store.

"Okay, sir, please take this sign. This is the spicy chicken noodles number one. A bowl of spicy chicken noodles is 15 wen. Today, you can get 10 wen off for every 2 wen you spend. Sir, the total is 13 wen. Please pay first.

Then just find a seat and sit down, and put your number plate on the table. Someone will call your number and take you to your seat and take your number plate away. "

The man took the number plate and said in surprise: "Wow, your way of calling numbers is quite novel, but it's good this way, we won't forget about customers and we won't miss payments, not bad, not bad."

After saying that, the man found a seat in the store and sat down.

Seeing that someone had already placed an order, Zhang Xingyun went to the kitchen and asked Zhang's mother and Zhu to cook noodles.

"I also want a bowl of pickled cowpea and minced meat noodles."

"Okay, sir, please take this sign. This is the No. 12 pickled cowpea and minced meat noodles. The original price is 10 wen. You can pay wen. Just put the sign on the table and someone will bring your noodles to your seat."

The middle-aged man took the number plate and was about to walk towards the table when he saw a table next to the counter with food on it that smelled rich and fragrant.

"Girl, what is this? It smells so good."

"Sir, these are our signature braised pig's feet, braised meat, braised pig's ears, and braised eggs. You can try them first. If you like the taste, you can buy them."

After saying that, Zhang Yunyue gave the middle-aged man a toothpick, then pushed the braised meat that was originally prepared for the customer to try forward, and raised her hand to signal the middle-aged man to try it.

The middle-aged man picked one up with a toothpick, put it in his mouth and tasted it carefully. It tasted even better than when he smelled it. He wondered in his heart what it was made of that could produce such a unique taste.

"Not bad, the taste is unique and the aroma is rich. How much is a plate of this braised meat?"

"Sir, this is 15 cents a plate."

"Okay, give me one plate. Here, 15 cents."

Zhang Yunyue took the silver, then brought a plate of braised meat on the table to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man took the braised meat, found a seat in the shop and sat down.

"Sir, please enjoy your spicy chicken noodles and mung bean soup."

The man looked at the bowl filled with spicy chicken, then smelled it, and knew that what he had chosen today was worth it. He mixed the noodles and spicy chicken, took a bite, and the spiciness of the pepper stimulated his mouth, but it did not make him feel disgusted, but instead stimulated his appetite.

"Sir, our menu is all here. Please take a look and see if there is anything you would like to eat."

"I want a bowl of braised pork noodle soup."

"I want a bowl of spicy chicken noodles, a bowl of mung bean jelly, a portion of braised pork trotters, and two eggs."

"Where is the No. 3 pickled cowpea and minced meat noodle?"

"Here, here, it's finally here. The smell of noodles at other tables has made me hungry. This soaked cowpea is so crispy and a little sour. Delicious, delicious, hahahaha."

"No. 7 Spicy Chicken Noodles."

"A bowl of tomato and egg noodles."

"..."

at the window.

"I want half a pound of chicken chili oil. How much is it?"

"My dear guest, half a pound of chicken chili oil is 35 cents."

"Okay, give me a bottle."

"Okay, sir, I'll give you a bottle of chicken chili oil for 35 cents. Thank you. I'll come back after you finish eating."

"Shopkeeper, how much is a pound of crispy whistles?"

"A half-pound of crispy whistle costs 490 wen, and a full pound costs 80 wen. This is made with pork belly, with our unique recipe. It tastes crispy and fragrant. You need three pounds of pork belly to make one pound of crispy whistle."

"Then I want half a pound of crispy whistles and half a pound of pork chili oil."

"Okay, sir, here are two bottles for you, 70 coins in total. If they are delicious, I'll come back next time."

"..."

back kitchen.

"Mother, a bowl of pickled cowpea and minced meat noodles."

"Second Aunt, a bowl of spicy chicken noodles."

"Sister-in-law, cook a few more bowls of noodles."

"Okay, got it."

"Xiaoyun, come and get the noodles."

"Brother, the noodles are ready."

"..."

For a moment, both the front shop and the back kitchen of the Four Seasons Food Store were bustling with noises of conversation.

An hour passed and there were fewer people in the shop. Now there were only a few people left eating noodles at the table. Everyone prepared to take a break.

Zhang's father and Zhang Cheng stayed in the shop to watch, while the others gathered in the backyard. Zhang's mother and Zhu cooked a bowl of noodles for everyone, added a fried egg for everyone, and then let them add the seasoning they thought of.

Zhang Yunyue even took the few remaining braised eggs in the store to the backyard for everyone to try. The braised pig heads and pig feet sold very quickly and were sold out shortly after the store opened.

"Don't mention it, the braised pork, spicy chicken, and pickled cowpea and minced meat made by Yueyue are all delicious. They don't taste the same as those you can find outside."

"Alian, this tomato and egg noodles is also delicious. I just saw someone order it, and then poured it on the noodles and I thought it looked good together, haha."

Ruan Xiuxiu had noticed it when she was helping to cook noodles in the backyard just now. Now she finally tasted it. Unexpectedly, it tasted sour, not bad.

"I like this spicy chicken noodles, it's spicy and appetizing, and there's no soup, so it's not that hot to eat."

"This pickled cowpea and minced meat noodle dish is also good, crispy and sour, paired with chili oil, in one word, delicious."

"Alian, I think the noodles you have are the best in town. No, they're probably even better than the noodles in the county town."

Qiao Dacheng smiled and said, "The opening today has made us famous in the town. I was just outside greeting customers and many of them said they were regular customers of the stall.

After eating your noodles today, I probably won’t want to make them at home anymore. The noodles I make at home don’t have that much delicious meat, hahahahaha.”

After everyone finished eating the noodles, it was Zhang's father and Zhang Cheng's turn to eat. By the time they finished eating and returned to the shop, it was already noon. At this time, the store had entered another peak period of noodle eating.

After noon, the number of people in the store gradually decreased. At this time, Qiao Dacheng and Zhu Hui were ready to leave first. After all, it would take several hours to get back.

Because of the opening and activities today, there were a lot of people eating noodles and mung bean jelly, so there was not much meat left from the preparations in the morning.

Zhang Yunyue discussed with everyone that for the sake of everyone's health, the food shop only needs to sell from morning to noon, and close in the afternoon. If the business sells early, then they can close early, and then prepare the braised meat and the like that will be needed for tomorrow in the evening.

Seeing that there were fewer people around, Zhang Yunyue and Zhang Xingyun carried their backpacks and prepared to go buy meat so that they could prepare the meat for tomorrow's stew in the evening.
