The whole family traveled through time and became doctors, raised children and farmed in ancient tim

Because the sign was so conspicuous, students were attracted every day to ask when the store would open. Seeing the students' enthusiasm and anticipation, Xie Songlin promised to give away 100 cups of sour plum soup on the opening day to thank them for their strong support.

After more than half a month of intensive and meticulous preparations, Frappuccino is finally about to usher in the important moment of its opening. Xie Songlin, Xie Rou and Xie Cheng came to the store early in the morning on Xie Songyang's ox cart to start preparations.

Everyone started to get busy, but the main task was to cook sour plum soup. As for the most important supply of ice, Xie Songlin thought of a trick. He first pretended to make an appointment with someone outside for the delivery location, then pretended to go out to get it seriously. After going out, he quietly came to the space and took out the ice that had been in the wooden barrel for a long time. Then he turned a corner and moved it back to the store through the deserted alley.

But it’s definitely not okay to add ice cubes secretly like this all the time. What if he has something to do one day and he can’t add ice cubes.

Xie Songlin quietly asked his daughter: "Xing, do you have any tricks for making ice? We can't always use those small ice cubes in the refrigerator. They melt quickly and can only be used to make cold drinks."

Xie Wanxing glanced at him: "Really."

"Thank you, Dr.." Xie Songlin bowed to her.

"You're welcome." Xie Wanxing raised his little hand and bowed in response, "But not now. We can't deal in saltpeter yet. Let's save some money. Daddy will have to trouble you to move the small ice cubes in the space recently, but after summer is over, we won't need the ice cubes for a while."

Xie Songlin thought that made sense, so he decided to put the ice-making issue aside for now, leaving it for next year. After all, he had a more pressing task waiting for him: the milk tea shop he was about to open today—Frappuccino!

Because it was not convenient to set off firecrackers for the opening of a new store on Wenxing Street, Xie Songlin only bought a few small flower baskets and placed them at the door to signal the opening of the store.

Looking at the time, it was almost time for the academy to be dismissed for lunch. This was the time when many students would eat in the cafeteria, while others would go to restaurants outside to eat. This was also the hottest time of the day, so it was a good time for him to promote his business.

Xie Songlin quickly called over Xie Cheng, and together they moved a large table to the door. They quickly set the table and began serving the complimentary sour plum soup cup by cup, using the wide-mouthed bamboo cups made of Xie Songmu.

As soon as the noon bell rang, students poured out of the academy like a tide. Although Hanfeng Academy had a uniform school uniform and the students wore the same clothes, some young men from wealthy families still couldn't help but look noble. They were followed by page boys and had servants waiting at the door. Even the book boxes they carried were more exquisite.

The nobles all came to see the great dean of the academy. Although the food in the cafeteria was convenient and cheap, the taste was indeed unbearable for them, so some of the restaurants outside the academy with good food became their cafeterias.

Many people came out of the academy and saw Xie Songlin soliciting customers at the door. They knew that the store with the novel sign had opened, and the crowd swarmed over. Soon, the store entrance was blocked by people. Such a lively scene soon attracted the attention of students from other colleges. They saw from afar that this place was crowded and lively.

"Everyone, today our store opens for Frappuccino. To thank you all, the first 100 customers who come to the store today can get a cup of sour plum soup for free at the door. If you want to try other iced drinks, you are welcome to come in!" Xie Songlin asked Xie Cheng to stay at the door to give out free drinks, and he led some customers into the store.

Some students who were too lazy to take advantage of the free service, either from well-off families or disdaining to wait in line at the door for such a small profit, naturally followed Xie Songlin into the store.

Upon entering the shop, they were surprised by the interior layout, but what caught their attention most was the wooden signs at the counter with the names of the teas. These signs were beautifully crafted, and each name was copied from ancient poetry by Xie Songlin and Xie Wanxing after reading through a collection of ancient poems.

"A lotus breeze brings fragrance, five cents a cup, what is this?" A student whispered the name on the wooden sign, a puzzled look on his face. His voice was quiet, but it caught the attention of the students around him. Everyone turned to look at the wooden sign, wondering what the tea would taste like.

"Sir, this is our store's lotus leaf tea. It clears away heat and relieves summer heat, cools blood and reduces swelling. Would you like to have a cup to try?" Xie Songlin introduced with a smile.

"Okay, give me a glass of this!"

"What kind of tea is this 'Frost Leaves Redder Than February Flowers'? What a nice name! Give me a cup!" another student said excitedly. He was attracted by the poetic name and couldn't wait to taste the tea.

"I know it's not snow?" Another guest whispered the name, his eyes full of curiosity. There was a hint of doubt in his voice, as if he was thinking about the meaning of the name. The students around were also attracted by the name and speculated about the characteristics of this cup of tea.

The atmosphere in the store suddenly became lively, and everyone was discussing these novel and poetic names of tea drinks. The students were full of praise for them, as if they were not placing an order, but rather attending a poetry reading.

"Boss, you have great literary talent!" Everyone looked at Xie Songlin with admiration in their eyes.

Xie Songlin smiled slightly and said modestly, "I don't deserve it. I'm just a little knowledgeable in literature and I like to read some poetry on weekdays."

"Boss, you are too modest. It's rare to name a tea drink with such a meaningful meaning." Another student praised him. His tone was full of sincerity and admiration, and the guests around him nodded in agreement.

While Xie Songlin was explaining and introducing the subject to the students, he was also busy taking orders and serving tea. Soon, someone who had tasted the free drink came in and wanted to buy some sour plum soup to take to other restaurants to eat with their meal.

Fortunately, Xie Songlin had made preparations. He had packed a lot of sour plum soup in bamboo bottles and placed them directly on the large wooden cabinet next to the order counter. The large wooden cabinet was towering, and every layer was filled with bamboo bottles with the Frappuccino logo engraved on them. Because it was an iced drink, there were water droplets on the surface of the bamboo bottles caused by condensation due to the cold air.

"If you want to take away the sour plum soup, you can come here and take it away. The sour plum soup is one cent a bottle, and you need to pay a deposit of three cents to take the bamboo bottle away. The deposit can be refunded when you bring the bamboo bottle to the store." Xie Songlin introduced loudly.

Although he had prepared a lot of sour plum soup in advance, which relieved the pressure to some extent, there were indeed more people coming today than Xie Songlin had imagined. In addition, there were also some guests going upstairs who needed to be greeted, which made Xie Songlin feel a little overwhelmed. He felt that he had miscalculated. He originally brought Xie Rou and Xie Cheng as waiters, thinking that they could handle it, but he didn't expect the scene to be so popular that they were really overwhelmed.

Fortunately, Xie Songyang and Xie Songbai's family also rushed to the store after finishing their work. They quickly joined the busy team to help make and serve tea, so they managed to get through the lunch break after school.
