They ultimately did not stay up all night on New Year's Eve.

After midnight, everyone went to sleep.

I'm already quite tired, and staying up late again might not be enough for my body.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Liu Yanxi and Liu Nanjia took Sirou to the old house, just to go through the motions.

After all, it's not right not to pay New Year's visits to elders.

Afterwards, I also visited a few familiar households in the village, such as the village head, Aunt Wang, and Aunt Zhao.

There's also the carpenter Fang from the town and the bookstore owner Wu.

Originally, Liu Nanjia and his group wanted to visit Doctor Bai, as he had been a great help.

As it turned out, the clinic was closed, and they didn't know where Dr. Bai lived, so they had to give up.

They also took a trip to Changning County, which is further away.

Changning County is located east of Dushui Village and is a larger county seat than Anping Town.

When we got there, it was indeed even more lively.

We also happened to be there during a temple fair, where there were vendors hawking their wares, artistic performances, lion dances, dragon dances, Yangko dances, and stilt walking everywhere.

Even Liu Nanjia was amazed, let alone Liu Sirou and Liu Yanxi who had never been out before.

I was completely mesmerized.

After a few days of eating, drinking, and having fun, it's time to get down to business.

The first thing is potatoes.

Liu Nanjia didn't have time to plant it herself, so she asked Uncle Zhao for help.

Uncle Zhao was very interested in this novel crop when he saw it for the first time, and he examined it carefully for a long time.

Liu Nanjia, of course, resorted to her old excuse again, and also gave a general account of what she knew:

"Uncle Zhao, the book says that to plant potatoes, you have to wait for them to sprout, then cut them into small pieces, cultivate the seedlings, and then plant them in the ground. That's all I know. You'll have to do more research and try it out yourself to see how to actually plant them."

"You really have to be careful, this is all the potatoes I got, they're all here, if they're gone, they're gone."

Uncle Zhao immediately felt a heavy burden on his shoulders, but after thinking it over carefully, he nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll give it a try."

What Liu Nanjia said really appealed to him. It could be used as a staple food, as a vegetable, and had a high yield. If such a good thing could really be grown, it would be a great benefit to the local area.

Even on a small scale, it can help the family earn more money.

Of the wasteland cleared before the New Year, some was used to grow vegetables, but a lot remained empty.

If we were to plant wheat, we would have to wait until autumn to plant it. Wouldn't it be a waste to leave such a long period of time uncultivated?

After explaining everything, Liu Nanjia, not wanting to put too much pressure on Uncle Zhao, added, "Uncle Zhao, you don't need to feel pressured. I only read a few words in that book and don't actually know how to plant it, otherwise I wouldn't have given it to you. You're definitely better than me. If all else fails, we can go back up the mountain and look again. Since we have these, maybe we can find something else."

Uncle Zhao was comforted and carefully confirmed with Liu Nanjia what was written in the book. Liu Nanjia racked her brains and told her everything she knew.

Then Uncle Zhao carefully carried the potatoes away.

Liu Nanjia didn't tell the village head about the potatoes.

After all, we don't know if it can actually be grown. If it fails, wouldn't it be a waste of our hopes?

Besides, with the current capacity, even if we make seeds, we can only grow a small patch, which is not enough for widespread application.

Now that the potato issue is resolved, it's time to get busy with the shop.

Liu Nanjia confirmed the new product again.

The main recommendation is the chicken burger, which consists of two slices of bread sandwiching crispy fried chicken thigh meat, with salad dressing and leafy greens to cut through the richness.

There are two new bread products: one is filled with red bean paste, and the other is pork floss bread.

The main parts used for making fried chicken are chicken breast, chicken legs, and chicken wings. Liu Nanjia thought of using the remaining scraps of meat to make meat floss.

Thus, another new product was created: the egg and pork floss sandwich.

There was an egg and a layer of pork floss sandwiched between the three slices of bread, along with salad dressing and leafy greens.

As for the bread slices, they are cut from toast, and they are also a new product.

Then there's fried chicken with seasonings.

That's all for now, plus a drink, plum juice.

As for the tableware, it was ordered before the Lunar New Year. Liu Nanjia specially ordered it. We can pick it up in the next few days and put it in the store.

In addition, there is the work of promotion, although we had already promoted it to our regular customers when we set up the stall before.

But since we're opening a store, of course we need to expand our customer base and let more people know about it.

So Liu Nanjia decided to make some promotional leaflets.

This task was naturally assigned to Song Chen: to simplify the dishes he had previously drawn, arrange them on paper, and add the words "New store opening, 20% off for the first three days."

And the location of the shop, etc.

While Song Chen was pondering how to draw it, Liu Nanjia pulled her brother over, intending to have him draw it after the design was finalized.

After all, there are quite a few portions to make, and if all of them are handed over to Song Chen by himself, his hands will probably be ruined.

But after everything was arranged, Liu Nanjia suddenly thought of a problem.

Store name!

We've been putting it off since before the Lunar New Year, and we still haven't come up with a name for the store!
