Chapter 81 A Feast for Raising the Beams to Be Held
On the fourth day after Liu's Restaurant opened, and the first day of its official business, Liu Xiong drove his fully loaded oxcart out of the village.
Completely different from their anxiety three days ago, Liu Xiong and Liu Yan stood up straight, looking proud and confident.
Without the gimmick of free meals and half-price discounts for the first ten customers, the opening today didn't see the exaggeratedly long queues at the door that were common in the previous three days, but customers still flocked in.
The West Market already has a large flow of people, and Liu Yan's food is delicious and unique in the whole city. After three days of fermentation, many people from Fulin County will come to try it, so business is naturally good.
Having gained experience from the previous three days, Liu Xiong and Liu Yan were no longer as excited as before by the constant stream of customers. However, Da Ma and Xiao Ma were surprised to find that Liu's restaurant was doing so well.
I thought that a newly opened food stall wouldn't be very popular, but it's so popular!
Sister Qianqian is truly amazing. She knows medicine and can also run a business. She can even run a food stall quite well.
Nie Qianqian kept reminding Da Ma and Xiao Ma, "When guests greet you, you must respond immediately and not let them feel neglected."
"No matter how busy or tired we are, we must greet you with a smile. Your image reflects the image of Liu's Restaurant."
"Xiao Ma, the customer just ordered braised pork offal, not mala tang. Don't serve the wrong thing."
“Malaysia, if you encounter a customer like that again, don’t confront them directly. You can offer them a complimentary drink to soothe their emotions.”
With Da Ma and Xiao Ma, Liu Xiong was much more relaxed. He no longer wandered around the stall like a headless fly, but could now keep an eye on the customers' needs and keep the overall situation under control.
To keep his promise to Xiaogang, Liu Lizheng got up early again today and rushed to Xishi. He had gotten up a little late the previous two days, and when he arrived at Xishi, Liu's restaurant was already surrounded by crowds. He had a child with him and couldn't squeeze in at all.
He knew the half-price promotion had ended, but Xiaogang wanted to eat it, and since he loved his child, he had to bring him to try it.
When he arrived at the West Market, he finally saw Liu's Restaurant's stall in the distance and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that his trip today would not have been in vain.
Liu Lizheng carried Xiaogang toward the small restaurant, muttering, "It's almost full. How come this little food stall is so popular?"
Xiao Gang, nestled in Liu Lizheng's arms, hugged his neck and suddenly cried out, "Sister Qianqian!"
Liu Lizheng chuckled and tapped Xiaogang on the head. "What 'Sister Qianqian'? You're talking about your Sister Qianqian again. Tomorrow, I'll take you to see her."
After Qianqian came to his house last time and gave Xiaogang candy, Xiaogang has been talking about the pretty Qianqian sister all the time.
Xiao Gang pointed in the direction of Liu's Restaurant, "No, Grandfather, look, isn't that Sister Qianqian?"
Liu Lizheng: "Huh?"
Could it be that Nie Qianqian also ate at this little restaurant?
Liu Lizheng looked in the direction Xiao Gang was pointing and saw Nie Qianqian smiling and greeting a customer, while Liu Yan was busy cooking something in a pot behind her, and Liu Xiong was collecting a customer's payment.
He froze on the spot. He had heard from the villagers that Liu Yan and Liu Xiong had set up a food stall in the county town, but he never expected that the famous Liu Family Restaurant was opened by Liu Yan and Liu Xiong!
Liu Lizheng: "My goodness! This Liu Family Restaurant is actually opened by Liu Yan and her family! The business is so good right after opening! What kind of luck is this!"
After Nie Qianqian finished greeting the customers at hand, she saw Liu Lizheng standing blankly at the entrance of Liu Family Restaurant with Xiao Gang. "Grandpa Lizheng? What brings you here? Did you come to the West Market to buy something? Haven't eaten yet? Please come in, please come in."
Liu Yan and Liu Xiong greeted Liu Lizheng warmly when they saw him.
Nie Qianqian smiled and said, "Grandpa Village Head, my mother's little restaurant has just opened. She's currently selling three kinds of dishes. I'll bring them all for you to try."
Liu Lizheng waved his hands repeatedly, "No need, no need, I just brought Xiaogang here to try the braised pork offal. The kid keeps talking about it."
Nie Qianqian patted Xiaogang's head and said, "Xiaogang, try some braised pork in a bit. If you like it, come to Sister Qianqian's house to eat every day."
Before long, a steaming bowl of braised pork offal, a bowl of pickled cabbage and sliced pork rice noodles, and a bowl of spicy hot pot were placed in front of Liu Lizheng's table.
Liu Lizheng thought to himself, "Since I'm already here, I might as well try everything."
His original intention was to eat with Xiaogang, but after taking the first bite, he was amazed and his eyes widened. He then enjoyed eating the three dishes with gusto. He and Xiaogang, the old man and the young man, finished all three dishes.
After finishing his meal, Liu Lizheng finally understood why Liu Family Restaurant was so popular. All three dishes were delicious and he had never eaten them anywhere else. It seemed that Nie Qianqian and Liu Yan had developed these dishes themselves.
With such ingenuity and skill, coupled with Nie Qianqian's shrewd management, it would be strange if this business didn't thrive.
After finishing his meal, Liu Lizheng felt warm all over, his belly was bulging, and he stroked his beard with enjoyment. This taste was truly worth getting up early for three consecutive days.
Liu Lizheng: "Qianqian, how much do these three items cost?"
Nie Qianqian smiled and said, "Look at what you're saying. Grandpa Village Head, you've come to support our newly opened restaurant. How can we accept your money? It's all free. If you like the food, my mother will cook it when we get back to the village tonight, and I'll bring you two more bowls."
"How can we do that? We can't just eat your food for free."
After Liu Yan finished making another bowl of braised pork, she finally had some free time. "Uncle Village Head, we're from the same village, so please don't be so polite. I've troubled you a lot with the house construction, so I really can't accept your money."
The three men were very firm in their stance, which made Liu Lizheng feel quite embarrassed.
But when he saw the envious looks from the other customers, he unconsciously straightened his back.
Liu, the village head: "Is your new house almost finished?"
Nie Qianqian: "The main frame is all finished. We'll be raising the roof beam in a few days. We'll invite everyone to a roof beam feast then. The village head must come!"
When Liu Yan left the Nie family after her divorce, some villagers wanted to see her make a fool of herself, thinking that she and her daughter would not be able to survive outside. Others sympathized with her plight and always looked at Liu Yan with pity.
To everyone's surprise, Liu Yan not only survived but also built a new house. Everyone guessed that building a new house must have emptied her savings, and wondered how she would live in the future. Then, Liu Yan opened a food stall.
With the new house nearing completion, Nie Qianqian discussed with Liu Yan the idea of holding a house-raising banquet, inviting the construction workers and villagers who were on good terms with Liu Yan to a feast. She wanted to tell everyone in a grand way that Liu Yan's life was not only not miserable after leaving the Nie family, but was getting better and better and more and more comfortable!
