165 The Guests’ Request
Li Xiaoran thought for a mont and said, “I’ll go take a look first! If it’s really suitable, we’ll move in today!”
With that, Li Xiaoran looked at her father, Li Shun, who had just finished breakfast.
“Father, co with to the shop! If there’s no problem, we’ll move the noodle stall to the shop today!”
When Li Shun heard this, he quickly drank the last mouthful of rice soup and wiped his mouth before walking over.
“It’s ti to move into the shop! It’s too cold outside!” Li Shun felt sorry for his family, so when he heard that they were going to check out the shop, he imdiately beca invigorated.
Soon, the father and daughter walked towards the shop.
Yuan Cheng had just woken up and cooked so dumplings to eat. When he saw Li Xiaoran and Li Shun coming, he smiled and greeted them.
“Third Uncle Li, Sister-in-law, you’re here! Have you two eaten yet? Do you want to eat so dumplings together?”
“No need. We’ve already eaten. We ca to look at the shop! You can eat first!” Li Shun replied as he looked at the shop.
Li Xiaoran also followed behind her father and looked around.
Li Shun stepped on various things and knocked around. Finally, he nodded in satisfaction.
“Not bad! Daughter, this shop is built very solidly! Look, the main beam is also very thick. Even if snow piles on the roof, we won’t have to be worried that it will collapse!”
Li Xiaoran could not discern anything, so she could only watch.
Hearing her father’s words, Li Xiaoran was relieved.
“Then can we use this shop?”
“It’s done. The shop at the side is completely dry. It’s not a problem to move in directly. The other shops still need to be parched. If we just move the noodle stall over, it won’t be a problem!” Li Shun said.
“Third Uncle Li, can Mao Dao and I move in too?” Mao Dao held a bowl of dumplings and asked as he ate.
Li Shun looked around and said, “Of course! The shop is so big and has a double burner stove. It’s enough to cook noodles and stead buns. Even if it’s not enough, you can bring an iron stove over and steam the buns in front of this window. If custors co, they can co straight to the window to buy them. It’s very convenient!”
Li Xiaoran took a closer look and felt that this arrangent was really good.
“Alright, let’s do as Father says. We’ll move the noodle stall to the shop today. We won’t have to worry about being exposed to the elents anymore!”
“Then I’ll eat the dumplings and go look for Mao Dao. Let him co over quickly to move the things! In the future, we’ll also be able to benefit!” Yuan Cheng said with a smile.
Li Xiaoran thought for a mont and said, “It just so happens that after we have a shop, I can teach you how to make stead buns and rolls in my free ti. Practice first. We’ll officially start selling them after the new year!”
“Alright, I’ll listen to you!” Yuan Cheng nodded and said.
Li Xiaoran was a straightforward person. She did whatever she said she would.
The father and daughter quickly ran ho. Everyone packed their things and moved them to the shop.
Luo Chen also woke up. When he heard that Li Xiaoran and the others were going to move things to the shop, he quickly ate breakfast and started moving things to the shop.
There was no need to set up a stall, so many things could be directly moved to the shop.
There seed to be a lot of things, but there was strength in numbers!
Guan Dongshan bumped into Li Shun and the others moving things to the shop, so he helped.
Two hours before noon, everything was placed in the shop neatly.
“It’s almost ti to sell the noodles. Let’s knead the noodles quickly!” Li Xiaoran looked at the sun outside and said.
The others nodded. Those who knew how to knead dough ran over and kneaded it.
Luo Cheng took out the sign he had prepared and hung it on the plaque.
In addition, Luo Cheng also asked soone to rust a flag with the words “sliced noodles” on it and hang it on the roof of the shop so that people who ca from afar could see that this was a noodle shop.
Mao Dao and Yuan Cheng also opened the window and stead buns.
Soon, those people passing by on the official road noticed the shop and rushed over.
At this mont, there were no more than two stalls selling food by the pipeline.
So families could not stand the cold, so they did not co to sell things anymore.
The shop was quickly filled.
With so many people around, even Yuan Cheng and Mao Dao sold more stead buns.
“As expected, it’s better to have a shop in the middle of winter. It can warm you up!” A traveling rchant drank the hot bone soup and sighed. “Shop owner, is the shop going to be open during the new year?”
“I don’t know yet!” Li Shun thought for a mont and replied honestly.
“I really hope your shop can be opened for the new year! That way, people like us who are still on the road during the new year will be lucky! It’s nice to be able to drink hot soup in the winter!” the rchant said.
When Yuan Cheng heard this, he imdiately had an idea.
Anyway, he would be here for the new year, so he might as well keep this shop open!
Even if they could not sell noodles, it was fine to make so hot porridge and steam so stead buns to sell!
After secretly making up his mind, Yuan Cheng planned to talk to Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran later.
Li Xiaoran could feel the strong emotions surging in the rchant’s heart. She looked at the people sitting in the shop and enjoying the warmth, then she had an idea.
Perhaps it was as her father had said before!
This shop was no longer just a shop. More often than not, it was a special existence to people during journeys.
“We have to keep our shop open during the new year!” Li Xiaoran had a smile on her face and said loudly in a clear voice, “Even on New Year’s Eve and the first day of the New Year, we’ll keep our shop open! Feel free to co!”
As soon as she said this, cheers sounded in the noodle shop.
“That’s great. Then I’ll co here for the New Year!” At this mont, a familiar figure appeared again.
...
This person was none other than Old Madam Jin, a frequent custor.
“Not bad. It’s better to have a shop! In the future, when I co over to eat noodles, I don’t have to worry about wind and rain!” Old Madam Jin said as she sized up the shop.
When Zhao Xiu saw the regular, she quickly cleared a table.
“Do you still want the sa order as usual?” Zhao Xiu asked with a smile.
“Yes, as usual! But if you add anything new to the nu, tell . I might like it!” Old Madam Jin said as she sat down with the help of the old woman.
