You said you would tell fortunes, so you can catch ghosts and exterminate zombies easily?

Liu Chunhua: "That makes sense. But this bucket hasn't even been sold. How much money did you lose?"

Old Man Su mumbled, "Not much, just over twenty yuan."

"At once?"

Old Man Su glared at her: "It's not a waste, we have a big family, we can finish it."

Su Xiaoyan chimed in: "Yes, Mom, don't blame Dad. Today is the first day of trying to sell it. If it's not suitable, Dad and the others will discuss and change it."

"In business, there are gains and losses, it's normal."

Liu Chunhua then glanced at Old Man Su, and seeing that Su Chen had finished eating, she took it and served him another bowl.

Seeing Su Chen eat two bowls in one go, Old Man Su's depressed mood improved again. He asked in a low voice: "Ah Chen, if we open a shop to sell these vermicelli, will there be business?"

"It's also ten cents?"

Old Man Su shook his head: "That's definitely not possible. If you want to open a shop and sell it, you have to put it in big bowls. A bowl will cost at least... fifty cents."

Su Chen calculated it and shook his head: "Dad, let's stop thinking about it."

"No, no way?" Old man Su lowered his head.

Lin Jingyu drank up all the soup at the bottom of the bowl and analyzed: "Uncle, it's mainly because the fans are not full."

Old Man Su looked at him.

"This vermicelli tastes really good, but it's expensive. Some people might spend money on it just for the taste at first, but after going hungry, they'll probably think twice before spending money again."

"Of course, it would be different if it were on a restaurant menu."

Old Man Su: “!!!”

"Uncle, who gave you this recipe? Are you willing to share it? I'll buy it."

"Aaron and the others figured it out. Wait a minute, I'll call and ask."

Old man Su suddenly became happy and ran to the living room to make a phone call.

Liu Chunhua glanced at him and said, "This old man...he got carried away after making a little money."

"Mom, Dad also wants to make more money, but no matter how much he makes, isn't it all under your control?"

"You still think the money is too much?"

Liu Chunhua thought about it and realized that it was true.

He immediately muttered, "Then can the old man get a share of the profits from selling the formula?"

Su Chen shook his head helplessly.

I was used to being poor.

Even though life is much better now, people are still very picky.

He turned to ask Su Xiaoyan: "Sister, how is your store?"

Su Xiaoyan grinned: "It's almost done. I'm just waiting for the auspicious day you calculated for me to open the business."

"By the way, Ah Chen, you have to give me two flower baskets to liven up the occasion."

Lin Jingyu raised her hand: "Third sister, I'll send you off too."

"Thank you, Yu."

While they were talking, Honghong and the others came back jogging after each other.

These days, because they are familiar with the route from school to home and have company, Liu Chunhua and her friends no longer go to pick up the children from school.

But I still have to send my child to school, for fear that he will be distracted by something on the way and skip classes.

Seeing Lin Jingyu, Honghong stopped first and called out, "Uncle Yu!"

The others at the back followed suit and shouted.

Su Xiaoyan invited them to eat vermicelli noodles, and Liu Chunhua muttered: "Why are you running? Look at how sweaty they are..."

Hong Hongyan took off her schoolbag, carefully took out a paper bag from it, and handed it to Liu Chunhua: "Grandma, eat it, it's delicious."

Liu Chunhua frowned and looked at it, then her face turned serious: "How much is this one?"

Su Chen gives the children pocket money every week, but Liu Chunhua often reminds them not to spend it recklessly and to learn to save money.

Apeng hurriedly explained: "Grandma, it's free."

"No money?" Liu Chunhua looked at the other children suspiciously.

Seeing Ah Xiu and Ah Qiu nodding, he took a closer look at the contents of the paper bag.

"Such a big cake, free?"

"Why am I so unconvinced?"

Liu Chunhua took a bite suspiciously and said, "It's not bad!"

"Grandma, the auntie who is setting up the stall said that this is for tasting. If we all think it tastes good, she will sell it to us later." Honghong explained.

"Taste it?" Liu Chunhua looked at the other children, "Have you all tried it?"

"One for each person?"

Seeing everyone nodding, Liu Chunhua became even more suspicious. She hurriedly handed the cake to Su Chen and said, "Ah Chen, take a look. Is there something harmful added to it?"

"Giving one cake to each person, I think it's normal for Ah Yu to do so. If it were an ordinary person... could they afford it?"

Su Xiaoyan nodded repeatedly: "It is indeed a bit weird!"

"We do have tastings, but usually they're cut into small portions for people to try. Uncle Chai used to do that when he sold his cakes, but a whole portion for tasting..." Lin Jingyu shook his head, "I've never seen anyone so generous. It feels like they don't care about the cost."

After hearing this, Liu Chunhua slapped her thigh.

"Okay, hurry up and scoop a spoonful... Hey, we don't have a pit here, what should we do?"

Su Xiaoyan comforted her: "Mom, Achen is here. If Honghong and the others are really in trouble, they can be treated directly. What are you afraid of?"

"Oh yes, yes, Ah Chen is here."

Liu Chunhua breathed a sigh of relief, only to find that Old Man Su was still happily chatting on the phone in the distance. She rushed over angrily, twisted Old Man Su's ear and roared at him.

"What time is it that you still have the mind to make a phone call? Something happened to your grandchildren!"

Old man Su followed in confusion.

"Isn't this... everything fine?"

Honghong, Apeng and the others didn't dare to say a word at this moment.

Liu Chunhua was annoyed.

"What did I tell you before? Don't eat anything outside. Did you just listen to it and it went into your dog's stomach? If there was poison in it, would you still be able to come back now?"

Honghong lowered her head: "I was wrong, grandma."

She took the lead, and several children immediately followed suit and admitted their mistakes.

Liu Chunhua snorted softly and looked at Su Chen: "Ah Chen, have you found anything?"

Su Chen checked the pancake inside and out and shook his head: "There's nothing weird added, and this meat..."

Su Xiaoyan frowned: "You won't use sick pork, right?"

"What did I say? There are not so many kind-hearted people these days. These kids are really... they won't learn their lesson unless they are beaten!" Liu Chunhua said as she was about to get a stick.

Then I heard Su Chen say: "Sister, the meat is also fresh."

Liu Chunhua: “???”

"Is everything really okay?"

Seeing Su Chen nod affirmatively, Liu Chunhua was puzzled: "Could it be that someone doesn't know how to do business, first lose a lot of money, and then think about making money?"

Su Xiaoyan took the pancake from Su Chen's hand, poked it open with chopsticks and took a look: "The meat inside must have been braised, and the portion is quite large. This pancake must cost at least 40 or 50 cents."

She looked at Honghong and the others and asked, "How many cakes did that aunt give out in total?"

A Peng shook his head blankly: "I don't know, she brought five baskets, all full."

"If one basket counts as a hundred, these five baskets are over two hundred, and that doesn't even include the time it takes to make the cakes."

Su Xiaoyan scratched her head: "Is he really a layman in business?"

Su Chen stood up.

"The chicken isn't cooked yet, Brother Yu, let's go check at the school gate."

Liu Chunhua said anxiously: "I'll go too."

Apeng was about to speak when she glared at him. He shrank his neck and dared not say a word.

"Old man, there are still fans in the pot, give them some."

Old Man Su: “…”

You’ve eaten such a big cake, so you’re not hungry anymore, right?

"Why are you standing there?!"

"Oh oh oh, I'll go right away."

Su Chen took Lin Jingyu and Liu Chunhua to the entrance of the elementary school.

The entrance is much quieter now.

But there was a group of people gathered on the roadside about 20 meters away from the gate.

"Don't push, don't push, we have everything, don't worry, there's still a basket, and I'm already making it at home..."
