"Everybody, thank you for coming. See you at dinner time." Zhou Jia stood at the door and said smilingly.
Then, the customers left in a hurry.
However, only Wu Hai, Su Mu and Ling Hong were left in the restaurant.
"Boss Yuan, I know a very good vegetable and fruit store. Can I take you there to have a look?" Su Mu looked at Yuan Zhou sincerely.
"You're just copying others' words." Ling Hong snorted coldly and disdainfully.
"As long as it works, it's fine." Su Mu smiled indifferently.
The three people naturally stayed here for the sake of Yuan Zhou.
Last time, Ling Hong brought a pile of vegetables and meat and ate the hotpot properly. That naturally made them jealous. Moreover, Ling Hong said proudly that the dishes were selected by Yuan Zhou for him.
That made them even more jealous. Therefore, Su Mu prepared to use the same trick again.
"No, thanks. I haven't sculpted the radishes from yesterday." Yuan Zhou refused flatly.
"You can't have too many of them. Boss Yuan, don't you think so?" Su Mu said mildly.
"Fresh ones are easier to sculpt." Yuan Zhou said earnestly.
As for Su Mu's purpose, Yuan Zhou naturally knew it. However, sculpting was more important. It was definitely not because he was too lazy to go out. That was it.
"I told you that you can't do it." Ling Hong shrugged and said confidently.
"Never mind. I have other ways." Su Mu wasn't discouraged and said confidently.
"Boss Yuan, are you going out today?" Wu Hai suddenly said after keeping silent for a while at the side.
"No." Yuan Zhou said affirmatively.
"That's good. I'll buy some snacks for you in the afternoon." Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and said smilingly.
Wu Hai was very smart. He didn't mention anything about buying vegetables for Yuan Zhou and just turned around and left.
"Tsk-tsk. You surprisingly used bribery. I despise you, small mustache." Su Mu pointed at Wu Hai and said loudly.
"No, no, no. We are communicating." Wu Hai said complacently.
"So what if you learned from Boss Yuan?" Of course, Su Mu knew that.
After all, Wuhai had been bragging about this for a long time.
He especially liked to show off in front of Engineer Cheng.
"Only vegetable dishes can be seen in public." Ling Hong usually poked at the sore spot.
"That was taught by Boss Yuan himself." Wu Hai was very proud.
"That was a deal." Yuan Zhou immediately tried to clear his name.
What a joke. If he said that Wuhai's craftsmanship was taught by him, it would be ridiculous.
"Yes, so I still taught him for three days." After saying that, Wuhai turned around and left. Then, Yuan Zhou found it hard to refute.
"See you tonight," Yuan Zhou said to the remaining two people.
Seeing that Yuan Zhou was sending them off, the two of them prepared to leave.
"Goodbye." Su Mu and Ling Hong said at the same time.
"Mm." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"Dadada Ta". The footsteps of the two people leaving were quite similar.
"I can sculpt now." Yuan Zhou sat down for a while and then muttered to himself.
After the rest, Yuan Zhou began to move the chairs and other things to the door and prepared to sculpt.
"The cool breeze is blowing gently. It feels good." Yuan Zhou sat at the door and said quietly after a gust of cold wind.
"Zhi Ya." Yuan Zhou stood up and turned around to open the door wider so that the warm air inside could also reach him at the door.
After that, Yuan Zhou sat down and prepared to sculpt.
"Vegetables for sale. Green bamboo shoots for sale ~" Just when Yuan Zhou was selecting the radishes, an old voice came from afar.
An old granny dressed in a crimson cotton-padded coat and black velvet pants was hawking in the alley while carrying two wicker baskets.
Just in a little while, she walked to the door of the noodle seller.
"Boss, do you want to buy some green bamboo shoots? They are fresh and juicy." The old granny revealed a smile and greeted her enthusiastically.
"No." The female noodle seller refused flatly.
"It was originally 2.50 RMB. Just give me 2.20 RMB." The old granny was still promoting enthusiastically. While saying that, she showed the wicker baskets to the female noodle seller.
"Hurry up. You are blocking my business." The female noodle seller was originally mean. She directly reached out her hand and pushed the female noodle seller away.
"Ok. I won't bother you anymore." The old granny smiled and didn't say anything more. Then, she carried the wicker baskets and continued walking towards Yuan Zhou.
"Dadada Ta". Her footsteps were quite steady.
"Boss, do you want to buy some green bamboo shoots?" When the old granny saw Yuan Zhou, she immediately greeted him enthusiastically.
"Um. How much per catty?" Yuan Zhou thought for a second and then asked.
"2.20 RMB per catty. It was originally 2.50 RMB. Now that it's sold in the afternoon, it's cheaper." The old granny said neatly.
There were indeed not many vegetables in the wicker baskets. All the vegetables added up were no more than 5 to 6 catties.
"Weigh the green bamboo shoots and other vegetables. I'm going to get the basket." After saying that, Yuan Zhou turned around and entered the restaurant.
There was a bamboo basket on the first floor of the pub, which could be used to carry the vegetables.
"Thank you, boss. I'm going to weigh it for you." The old granny revealed a happy smile. Her clean hands that were full of calluses tidied up the wicker baskets deftly.
When Yuan Zhou took out the bamboo basket, the old granny had already tidied up the remaining vegetables. The green bamboo shoots were green bamboo shoots and the small cabbage seedlings were placed neatly, waiting to be weighed.
"Put them in this basket after weighing them." Yuan Zhou put the basket beside the old granny's feet and said earnestly.
"Ok. Boss, look carefully. My scale is the fairest." The old granny took up the black scale on the small pole and said smilingly.
"Um." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"The head of the green bamboo shoots is 1.25 catties, the small cabbage seedlings are 1.5 catties and the spinach is 0.5 catties. That's all." The old granny reported while weighing.
Yuan Zhou just nodded his head and answered.
When receiving the money in the end, the old granny even took the initiative to erase 40 cents for Yuan Zhou.
"Thank you, boss." The old granny took the money and said happily.
"You are welcome. Take care." Yuan Zhou watched the old granny leave with the empty wicker baskets.
After the old granny walked far away, Yuan Zhou looked at the full basket and muttered, "I can eat the vegetable soup in the evening."
After that, Wuhai came down from the opposite staircase. He was carrying a plate in his hand and specially covered it with a lid.
"Did you make the snacks?" Yuan Zhou pointed at the plate in Wuhai's hand.
"Yes. It's definitely delicious." Wuhai said confidently.
"What's the name?" Yuan Zhou asked calmly.
"Mandarin duck cake. It's a Henan snack." Wuhai didn't put up any defense.
"Do you need any color for the cake?" Yuan Zhou asked carefully again.
"Of course not." Wuhai took a look at Yuan Zhou curiously.
"Ok." Yuan Zhou nodded his head with relief.
Wuhai took a step forward and immediately saw the basket full of vegetables at the door.
"Did you buy the vegetables?" Wuhai asked curiously.
"No. Someone came here to sell them. I eat them myself." Yuan Zhou said lightly.
"It's 3: 40 now. It's just the right time to eat the snacks." Wuhai stroked his small mustaches and looked at Yuan Zhou eagerly.
"Um. Let's have a taste." Yuan Zhou considered for a longer time than buying the vegetables this time.
"Let's go inside and have a taste." Wuhai took the plate and walked inside.
"Um." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then walked into the restaurant.
