Divorcing your wife might feel good for a moment, but seeing me make money will make you regret it f

The next day, at four o'clock in the morning as usual, Xu Qing and Wen Shi were busy in the kitchen.

Once everything was ready, we decided to wake the whole family up for breakfast and then head to town.

Xu Jian could watch over the two younger ones, Xu Gong, Xu Qing, and Wen Shi, who sold roujiamo (Chinese hamburger).

While riding in the oxcart, Xu Jian reluctantly said that he and his baby were just going to town to play, so they could walk there.

The three of them went to reserve seats for breakfast, and they also brought roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), so it was understandable that they could take the bus.

Xu Qing waved his hand and handed the fare directly to Xu Jianguo, the village chief's eldest son.

"I've already paid, hurry up and get in the car, brother."

Xu Jianguo only took six coins and said, "Baby is still a child, it doesn't count as money."

Xu Qing pointed apologetically to the large bucket of soy milk they had brought: "Our stuff is taking up space. Please accept it."

Xu Qing prepared the soy milk at home in advance, which saved him the trouble of using a stove. Besides, there were many people and many eyes in town, and it wouldn't be good if someone saw him.

Xu Jianguo waved his hands repeatedly: "Your family brought us so much delicious food yesterday, this is nothing. Sit down, let's go."

Upon arriving in town, Xu Gong led the way, and the group walked to the spot where they had set up their stall the day before.

After paying the stall fee and giving an extra 5 coins, I went to the place where I rented tables and chairs.

"A table costs two coins, and two chairs cost one coin each. How many do you want?" The shopkeeper was very attentive as customers came in.

Xu Qing estimated the size of their stall and said to the owner:

"Two tables, four chairs, do you have pots and stoves for rent?"

"Yes, but these two items are a bit pricey: the pot is 5 coins, and the stove is 5 coins. Do you want them?"

It is indeed a bit expensive, but they don't have any at home, so I can only rent one for now. After selling all the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), I'll buy a set and then I won't need to rent one tomorrow.

"Let's get one."

The shopkeeper smiled happily: "It's 16 coins in total, with a 10-coin deposit. Just return it before noon."

Xu Jian couldn't hold back any longer and exclaimed, "They want a deposit! We're just setting up our stall here, we're not going to run away. Besides, what if you don't give it back later?"

The owner explained patiently, "Young man, the deposit is to prevent customers from deliberately damaging the items and to ensure they are returned on time. As long as you follow the rules, why would I not refund it?"

Xu Qing could understand this approach, and even thought the boss was quite thoughtful. She tugged at the older brother's arm and handed him 26 coins.

"Let's hurry up and move the stuff over there so we can start selling roujiamo (Chinese hamburgers)."

The shopkeeper took the money and gave Xu Qing an approving look. He hadn't expected that it was usually the woman who was making a fuss, but today it was the other way around. This young lady had guts.

After hearing his younger sister's words, Xu Jian started moving things with great effort. Thanks to the good food they had been eating lately, with rice, wheat flour, and pork at every meal, the Xu brothers had grown much stronger.

Xu Gong and Wen Shi looked after the children and the stall. There were quite a lot of things, so Xu Jian made two trips to move them.

Wen set up the boiler, and Xu Qing took out three hamburgers, spread three different sauces on each, and then cut each type of hamburger into eight pieces. They were then arranged on a wooden plate.

The wooden tray was made yesterday at home by Xu Gong and his brother. They also made many bamboo tubes to hold soy milk today. Buying bowls would cost money, but there are plenty of bamboo plants on the mountain.

After finishing all that, Xu Qing started shouting, "Take a look, come and see! Free samples, buy only if you like it! Buy a roujiamo and get a free soy milk!"

Upon hearing that it was a free sample, a large crowd immediately gathered, shouting, "Really free? Are we going to have to pay you back after we eat it?"

Xu Qing smiled and said, "The quantity is limited, first come, first served, it's really free to try."

"Give me one."

"I want me too."

Xu Gong immediately handed them over one by one.

Those who tried it licked their lips, reminiscing, "This stuff really tastes good. How much does it cost?"

Xu Qing said, "Six coins each, plus a cup of soy milk."

The crowd hesitated for a moment, but when they heard that soy milk was being given away for free, they immediately felt like they'd hit the jackpot! A bowl of soy milk usually costs 1 coin, but today it's free?

A woman with a child said, "I want one!"

Xu Qing quickly assembled it and then asked, "What kind of sauce would you like?"

"They even have the original flavor? This is the first time I've ever seen something so novel. I'll take the red one."

Xu Qing offered, "I can cut it in half for you. This red sauce is sweet and sour, which is suitable for children. You can also choose another sauce; the black one is a bit spicy, and the white one is purely sweet."

Xu Qing's attentive service immediately increased the woman's goodwill, and she said generously, "No need to cut it, give me another one brushed with black sauce."

"okay."

The assembled roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) is placed on a special wooden plate. The golden-brown steamed bun is sprinkled with sesame seeds, and there are layers of green lettuce, meat patties, and red tomatoes, making it look very appealing.

"Mom, this is so delicious! Can you buy another one for my sister to take back home?"

"Okay, let's go buy some after we finish eating."

Seeing how much the mother and son enjoyed their meal, many onlookers also wanted to buy some.

"These steamed buns smell so good after being fried. I'll ask my wife to fry some for me when I get home."

"The meat pie is delicious."

"What are those red fruits inside? I've never seen them before, but they taste pretty good."

"If you ask me, the sauce here is the best."

"Yes, yes, anyway, when these things are combined, they inexplicably get addictive, and you can't stop eating them."

The customers ate and exclaimed with delight, making the stall bustling with activity. The old woman selling tofu next door, so envious, even broke a piece of her tofu in her hand.

Xu Qing quickly assembled the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), Xu Jian was in charge of ladling soy milk, Xu Gong was in charge of collecting money, and Wen Shi was in charge of frying the steamed buns. The meat patties were still warm, so they didn't need to be fried.

Xu Baobao sat obediently in the back, watching Xu Beibei in the bamboo basket.

Originally, the steamed buns could have been fried at home and brought over, which would have been much faster, but Xu Qing felt it was better to fry them on the spot.

The lively, smoky atmosphere attracts customers, making them feel that the food is freshly made. And freshly fried steamed buns do taste better.

In no time, all 60 roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) he brought were sold out.

"I'm sorry, we're sold out for today. Please come back tomorrow," Xu Qing said apologetically to the customers who hadn't managed to buy anything.

The woman with the child said regretfully, "I should have bought it first and left it. Are you still in this spot tomorrow? I'll bring my daughter tomorrow, you must come!"

Xu Qing smiled and agreed, then poured the remaining cup of soy milk from the wooden bucket into a bamboo tube and gave it to the woman.

"I didn't get to eat roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), but I'll take a cup of soy milk home for my child."

The woman took it, waved her hand, and said, "Thank you, I'll return the bamboo tube to you tomorrow."

Xu Qing was both amused and exasperated; this person was actually quite polite.

After packing up, Xu Gong carried the tables, chairs, and boiler back to the shop. The owner exclaimed in surprise, "So fast? It seems like only an hour has passed, and you've already sold out?"

Xu Qing said, "We didn't make many today, so they sold out quickly."

The boss checked the items and then refunded the deposit.

Xu Qing put away the money, and the group walked back. Xu Gong said excitedly, "Little sister is really amazing!"

We walked into a small alley.

Xu Qing took out the money from today's sales: "After deducting costs, we made 130 coins. Let's go buy a pot and stove ourselves. Tables and chairs aren't expensive; we can rent them."
