At noon, at the entrance of Yuanzhou shop.
"Do you want to buy vegetables? The lettuce today is all freshly dug out of the ground. They are very clean. "A vegetable vendor carried two wicker baskets and started to promote the vegetables to the customers lining up at the side.
"The small cabbages here are also very fresh. Have a look." Another grey-haired vegetable vendor also promoted the small green vegetables in his basket.
"In my opinion, the hotpot should be accompanied by tofu. Little brother, look. The tofu is still warm. They were just cooked this morning." The vegetable vendor who promoted the tofu removed the gauze and the steam immediately came out.
"How can we only eat vegetables? These several pieces are pork plum blossoms. The meat is very tender. Do you want to have a try?" The pork vendor set up a rack on the bicycle and hung several pieces of pork with good color on it.
"No need for the meat. I have already prepared it. You can buy some vegetables." It was Ma Zhida who said that. While saying that, he showed the lunch box in his hand.
"Hey, why do you buy the vegetables by yourself when you treat us to hotpot?" A female colleague standing behind Ma Zhida said discontentedly.
"I can't help it. This is Yuanzhou shop. It's good enough to eat here." Ma Zhida shrugged.
"Does Boss Yuan only serve the hotpot soup?" A strong man patted on Ma Zhida's shoulder.
"Exactly. He only serves the base material. Only Boss Yuan can do that." Ma Zhida shook his head helplessly.
"Then we buy the vegetables here?" The female colleague tucked her hair with her hand and looked at the several vegetable vendors who were trying their best to promote their own dishes.
"Don't worry. The vegetables here are all washed and brought here." Ma Zhida behaved like an experienced driver.
"Yeah, yeah. They are all clean. It's not the first time for this young brother to do business. What we sell is honesty." The vendor patted on his chest and said confidently.
"I believe you. It's not a big deal to bring the vegetables by yourself. The key point is that you even sell the vegetables at the entrance of the restaurant. This is the first time I've seen that." The female colleague tried her best to resist the desire to roll her eyes.
"This is democracy. In this case, you can buy whatever you want to eat by yourself." Ma Zhida said without any guilty conscience.
"A piece of tofu, can I cut it? Give me a bunch of vegetables and some lettuce too. Cut them all. "The female colleague ignored Ma Zhida and started to buy the vegetables.
"Sure, sure. Just bring me a plate." The peddler nodded happily.
It couldn't be helped. They had agreed to come for dinner. After all, Ma Zhida had said that they would come out for a gathering before the Winter Solstice. Who knew that it would be such a trap.
After people started buying vegetables, the hawker's business became better.
Eating hotpot was like this. It seemed to be contagious. Even if they were eating hotpot in Yuanzhou shop and others couldn't smell it, it was more attractive because everyone would imagine it.
Therefore, after one person ate the hotpot, there were more people eating behind him.
Basically, it was just a few acquaintances pooling money together and everyone buying some vegetables at the entrance. Then, they could eat a hot pot that was so spicy that it made people sweat all over.
As for where these peddlers came from? Naturally, wherever there was business, there would be them.
For the sake of convenience, these peddlers even provided washing and slicing services. It was almost a one-stop service.
After the Yuanzhou shop supported a large number of breakfast peddlers, it also supported a large number of vegetable peddlers.
The key point was that these peddlers all took the high-end route. After all, they were going to eat the hotpot soup cooked by Yuan Zhou. If the dishes were too inferior, they couldn't eat them at all.
In that case, they might as well learn from Wuhai to eat the Rice Served in the Hotpot Soup.
After all, Wuhai still couldn't buy vegetables until now and could only eat the Rice Served in the Hotpot Soup.
The vegetable peddlers were quite smart. They usually came when the weather was cold. At that time, there would be more people eating the hotpot. Therefore, it was the first time for Liu Jianan to see such a scene of vegetable peddlers after staying here for a week.
It was really rare.
"Boss Yuan is really an extraordinary person." Liu Jianan couldn't help sighing with emotion.
"What's so strange about that? Why don't you leave? The boss won't agree. "Zhou Jia suddenly said at the side.
"I have no choice. I still hope Boss Yuan can agree." Liu Jianan said earnestly.
"Why? Why does the boss want to cook a birthday banquet for your grandpa? "Zhou Jia asked with great puzzlement.
"Because I think only Boss Yuan can make my grandpa eat more." Liu Jianan paused for a while and then said solemnly.
"Alright. But I still don't think Boss Yuan will agree." After Zhou Jia said that, she went to greet the customers.
"Of course I know that." Liu Jianan curled his lips and muttered.
Actually, Liu Jianan had an idea in his heart at that time, but he just didn't say it out.
When he came here, Mr. Ma told him that he was the one who recommended him. However, after Liu Jianan tasted Yuan Zhou's craftsmanship, he felt it wasn't good to say that. As for why it wasn't good, Liu Jianan hadn't figured it out yet.
"If I work harder, I might succeed." Liu Jianan encouraged himself in the heart.
Then, he went to make trouble, no, to help, energetically.
In Liu Jianan's opinion, the noon time was the shortest and passed very easily. Then, the business time for lunch ended again.
In the afternoon, Liu Jianan didn't leave as usual. He waited beside Yuan Zhou and just waited for Yuan Zhou's instructions. However, he was still disappointed. Even when Yuan Zhou finished sculpting a goshawk, he still didn't pay attention to him.
"Pa Da". Yuan Zhou put the crystal clear goshawk on the shelf at the side.
"How did you know that I can cook a birthday banquet?" Yuan Zhou suddenly said.
The reason why Yuan Zhou asked that was very simple. He could tell that Liu Jianan had a good family background and a good upbringing. Therefore, he definitely had a wide range of choices to cook a birthday banquet. When he came to Yuan Zhou's restaurant, he obviously came here to taste the dishes. It seemed that he didn't come here because he knew about it.
Of course, that was all recalled by Yuan Zhou later.
"Ah? What? "Yuan Zhou asked so suddenly that Liu Jianan didn't react.
However, Yuan Zhou didn't like to repeat himself, so he didn't answer him.
Liu Jianan thought for a while and then remembered what Yuan Zhou asked. He said with a little perturbed, "It's Mr. Ma, Mr. Ma from Yanfeng Village. He asked me to come here."
On hearing that, Yuan Zhou took a look at Liu Jianan and kept silent for a while. Then he said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Should I?" Liu Jianan asked with puzzlement.
It seemed to be different from what he had imagined. Liu Jianan felt a little puzzled in his heart.
However, Yuan Zhou didn't say anything but just looked at Liu Jianan.
"Yeah, I should have told you earlier. I forgot." Liu Jianan admitted his mistake decisively.
After all, the cold eyes of Yuan Zhou were too scary.
"When is the birthday banquet?" Yuan Zhou asked concisely.
"On the 29th of this month." Liu Jianan said obediently.
"Humm. I will go there on that day. You can leave now." Yuan Zhou waved his hand indifferently.
Nevertheless, Liu Jianan turned around and prepared to leave subconsciously …
