Her dad’s praise made her so happy.
"Dad, here, Jiang the First is giving you a thumbs-up sticker."
Tongtong peeled off a round sticker with a thumbs-up on it and stuck it to Jiang Liu’s arm.
"How can a sticker from my daughter look so good?"
"Wow! Dad, why are you so handso today!"
Jun Qingng watched the father and daughter flattering each other and rolled her eyes.
’Why aren’t they including !’
’This is infuriating!’
The two of them grabbed a bottle of chilled waterlon juice and sat in the kitchen drinking it.
Every ti Jun Qingng drank his juice, she was amazed. "Jiang Liu, the juice you make is truly incredible."
"If I couldn’t drink this anymore in the future, I would honestly cry, you know."
Jiang Liu smiled faintly and said, "Well, if you stay with forever, you can drink it every day, can’t you?"
Jun Qingng froze for a mont, her ears turning pink.
’Ah! What’s happening?’
’Wasn’t I the one who was supposed to be chasing and flirting with my boyfriend?’
’How did it turn into my boyfriend flirting with every day?’
Caught off guard by his flirting, Jun Qingng stamred:
"I... In that case, can I take you up on that?!"
"Hehehe." Jiang Tongtong, sipping her juice off to the side, giggled and blew a snot bubble.
’Her mom and dad are so cute.’
’But not as cute as , of course.’
After they finished their juice, Jun Qingng stood up and said, "Tongtong, let’s help your dad bottle the juice, okay?"
"Okay~"
Jiang Liu had already prepared the juice but hadn’t had a chance to bottle it yet.
The two of them helped Jiang Liu fill four hundred bottles. After they were done, Jun Qingng pulled Tongtong along to mop the floor and wipe the glass door for him.
The corporate drones outside were dying of envy.
"Brother Jiang’s wife and kid are amazing. They’re always sticking to him and helping him work."
"Right? Not like that tigress I have at ho. She takes my salary and just eats and sleeps all day. She didn’t even take care of my mom when she was sick. Sigh!"
"Comparisons just make it hurt more."
Jun Qingng and Tongtong cleaned the inside and outside of the shop until it was spotless.
They were very ticulous.
「7:10 PM」
Jiang Liu opened for business early.
The custors were beyond thrilled.
"Yes, yes, yes! Boss Jiang is finally being diligent for once."
"I suggest we reward Boss Jiang by having him work a night shift."
The out-of-town custors, who had been waiting for ages, surged into the shop.
The shop was instantly packed.
The crowd at the take-out window was packed like sardines.
"Boss Jiang, one yak, potato, and mushroom soup to go, fifteen buns, and a bottle of juice!"
"One order of the tuna to go. And give fifteen corn and shrimp buns and three bottles of juice. Thanks, Brother Jiang."
"Do you have any free corn? No? Never mind then, just give an order of the tuna."
"Brother Jiang, will there be any new, permanent dishes in the future?"
Wang Dongxu asked.
All the custors perked up their ears.
Jiang Liu thought for a mont and said, "We’ll see."
He didn’t want to reveal too much, trying to maintain an air of mystery.
"’We’ll see?’"
"That probably ans no. If there was sothing new, Boss Jiang would have already added it."
"Four dishes is fine, too. It’s better than nothing. Enough for to eat for a lifeti!"
Hearing there were no new dishes planned, the custors looked disappointed.
Everything Brother Jiang made was even more delicious than a five-star restaurant’s. It would be great if he offered more so they could have so variety.
Jiang Liu expertly packed the food to go.
anwhile, Jun Qingng and Tongtong were in charge of bringing plates to the custors inside and cleaning up.
Everyone was very polite, proactively eting them to take the plates.
There were many new custors from out of town trying the fresh food for the first ti.
They were completely blown away.
’It’s several tis more delicious than the non-fresh version!’
A young man in a suit ate a piece of the tender, fragrant beef and exclaid in amazent:
"The texture of this yak at is incredible. My cousin brought two pieces yesterday. Even when I ate it cold, it tasted great. But eating it here in the shop today... holy cow, I had no idea the flavor could be this top-tier!"
"Yeah, if I didn’t live so far away and wasn’t tied up with work, I’d camp out on the floor here every day to get in line."
A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses to the side was astonished.
He had driven 200 kiloters from He Province with his wife. They left at 11:00 AM and only arrived at 2:00 PM.
"This tuna is so tender and fresh, I’m starting to suspect the owner can travel through ti and space. He’s a total badass!"
His wife, her mouth full, said, "Stop eating the fish for a second and try a bun!"
The man in sunglasses wolfed down a shrimp bun and pinched his thigh hard.
He took a sharp, fragrant breath.
"Delicious! Very good! The texture of the pork is first-class, way better than the pork we had at that famous restaurant in Zheng City. And that place had the nerve to charge 880 for their junk."
"Won’t the owner lose money doing business like this?"
"Maybe we should donate so money to Boss Jiang? We can’t let him go out of business."
"If only Boss Jiang could open a shop at the entrance of our neighborhood. If he did, I’d take out a loan and buy up the entire comrcial block nearby!"
Everyone was chattering excitedly.
The out-of-towners eating the buns for the first ti were questioning their entire existence.
Among them were many who had eaten delicacies from all over the country, yet they were still completely and utterly conquered by Jiang Liu’s food.
It was too delicious!
Incomparable!
Forget over a thousand, even paying ten thousand for a single al here would be a bargain. Boss Jiang is a businessman who’s truly contributing to society!
「Before 8:00 PM」
All the food was sold out. Even the buns that Jiang Liu had accidentally crushed with his tongs were snatched up by eager custors.
The custors didn’t dare to linger for too long, afraid of keeping Jiang Liu from closing up, so they quickly finished their als and left, taking their trash with them.
Jiang Liu was settling the accounts at the counter. He noticed that there were fewer new custors in the morning and at noon.
Usually, a lot of new custors showed up in the evening.
’It’s probably because many of them live far away or it’s inconvenient for them to co at other tis.’
After calculating his inco, he found today’s net profit was 523,580 yuan!
The daily revenue had already reached half a million!
Jiang Liu was stunned.
Ninety percent of it ca from his two high-end dishes: the yak at and the tuna.
Those two were the main drivers.
’I have over 1.3 million on hand now. Should I buy a house first, or expand the shop?’
As Jiang Liu was pondering this, Xia Changzhi strolled in with his hands behind his back.
"Boss Jiang, all done for the day? I got held up by sothing today. Are there any buns left?"
Jiang Liu said, "The buns are all gone, but I have so stead corn left. Let get you a couple of ears."
The smile on Xia Changzhi’s face grew wider.
"Yes, yes, that’s fine. As long as you made it, I’ll buy it with my eyes closed!"
Jiang Liu went to the back kitchen, got two ears of corn, put them in a bag, and handed it to Xia Changzhi.
"I’m off, Boss Jiang. If you run into any trouble, don’t hesitate to let know."
"Okay, Uncle Xia. Take care."
A mont after Xia Changzhi left,
"Paynt received via Alipay: 200 yuan."
Jiang Liu was taken aback, but then he realized it must have been from Uncle Xia.
He had a pretty high opinion of Uncle Xia.
He was also quite well-known in the neighborhood. You could go to him for help with any matter, big or small.
Jiang Liu shook his head and chuckled. He opened a drawer, intending to put away the cash.
The mont he looked down, he noticed a paper bag under the counter.
"Maotai?"
Jiang Liu pulled the bag open, a puzzled look on his face.
’So custor must have left it as a gift...’
A warm feeling flowed through his heart.
He put it back where he found it.
After the shop was cleaned, Jiang Liu made a dish of stir-fried pork with green peppers and another of shredded potatoes with tomatoes.
Jun Qingng and Tongtong, in a tacit understanding, both picked up so food with their chopsticks and placed it in Jiang Liu’s bowl of rice porridge.
"Dad, you’ve worked hard. Tongtong will take good care of you from now on."
"Eat up, boyfriend!"
"You two eat, too," Jiang Liu said with a cheerful laugh.
His smile was bright and handso.
Jun Qingng stared, captivated.
When she snapped out of it, she lowered her head, blushing, and picked up a few strands of potato.
After eating the shredded potatoes, Jun Qingng sighed, "Jiang Liu, everything you make is delicious. We get this dish often at my kindergarten, but it’s not even in the sa league as your potatoes."
Jiang Liu’s potatoes were sliced very thinly. They had a savory, oily fragrance with the sweet and sour taste of tomato.
It went perfectly with rice.
Beside them, Tongtong was focused on devouring the stir-fried pork.
Her cheeks were stuffed full, making her look like a little squirrel preparing for winter.
"Drink so porridge, Tongtong. Don’t choke."
