Yang Yi had prepared more than just pudding and barbecue for the children. He had also meticulously made pastries such as pea cakes, pumpkin cakes, mango layers, and egg tarts with blueberries and cranberries. He had also made desserts such as mango sago, double skin milk, and so on.
It could be said that it was beautiful and delicious. Not just the little ones, even the adults were tempted to eat.
However, the children's appetites were still small. Even the little chubby girl Lan Xin was full after eating a few pieces of barbecue and drinking some sago.
Just as Yang Yi was introducing the tips of making delicious food to the housewife mothers, Xi Xi brought the fully-fed little ones upstairs to play. She said she wanted to show them her toys!
Lan Xin didn't even wipe her greasy mouth, giggling as she followed. Lan Xin's mother hurriedly called out to Ding Xiang, who was going to be a nanny for the whole day, to ask her to help her daughter wash her hands and wipe her face.
The children had their own exciting stories, and the adults also had their own topics to talk about. Other than a few worried mothers who went upstairs to check on their children, the other adults were all chatting downstairs.
Just as Yang Yi was dealing with the crowd, the real estate tycoon Lanzhou Kai was eating a roasted drumstick without a care for his image while sizing up Yang Yi's shop with interest.
"Brother Yang, is this coffee shop your current business? This location isn't very good! " Lanzhou Kai suddenly called out to Yang Yi, who was walking past him. He chuckled and said, "I don't mean anything else. Your shop's layout is very stylish. It's just that from a businessman's point of view, opening a shop at the entrance of Jiangcheng Media University isn't a very good choice."
"What do you suggest, Brother Lan?" Yang Yi asked.
"If you want to open a coffee shop, especially if you want to create a brand with your own unique characteristics, you have to consider the problem of your customer base. There are currently two problems with your current customer base. First, the flow of people through this back door is very low. This has greatly limited your sales from the start."
"Secondly!" Lanzhou Kai finally acted like a businessman this time. He said methodically, "After all, the purchasing power of students is much weaker, unless you sell cheap coffee and win by quantity. But what you are selling now is handmade coffee, so the price can't be too low. Then you should consider the white-collar workers with higher income and quality of life requirements."
Lanzhou Kai had a good impression of Yang Yi. Not only did he guide Yang Yi in his business, but he also promised him that as long as Yang Yi wanted, he could provide Yang Yi with a shop in the Binhai business district at any time and rent it to him at cost price.
However, Yang Yi still declined. He revealed a little about his main profession of writing novels, then smiled and said, "Opening a coffee shop is just a personal hobby of mine. Opening it here at the university, I can enjoy peace and also freeload off the artistic atmosphere of Jiang Chuan. It's not to make money."
Lanzhou Kai was not very interested in literature, so he did not pursue the matter. However, he still expressed his admiration for Yang Yi's pure heart, and even asked Yang Yi to make him a cup of coffee.
"Not bad, not bad! Your culinary skills are much better than my secretary's. Granny's leg, I think I should ask him to come over and learn a thing or two from you. "Lanzhou Kai laughed loudly as he tasted the Blue Mountain coffee that Yang Yi had specially brewed for him.
At this time, the little guys swarmed down again. Xi Xi, with a face full of excitement, ran to her father, took his hand, and said expectantly, "PaPa, PaPa, can you show us the Golden Cudgel like Sun Wukong?"
The little girl also pouted her mouth and imitated the "Wu Wu" sound of the cudgel. Her hand also seemed to be holding the cudgel, waving it to show her father.
Yang Yi had no choice but to make an apologetic gesture to Lanzhou Kai.
"Go, go, you don't have to entertain us. Just serve these little ancestors well!" Lanzhou Kai laughed.
The shop was too crowded, so Yang Yi was surrounded by the little guys to the open space of the lawn outside the shop, holding a "Golden Cudgel" in his hand.
That's right!
It was no longer the poor broom. Since Yang Yi had performed it once, Xi Xi liked it very much. Sometimes when she listened to the story of the Journey to the West at night, she would excitedly ask Yang Yi to perform it again.
Therefore, Yang Yi asked someone to custom-make such a "Golden Cudgel" according to his figure, the corresponding proportion, and the drawing he drew. There were flowing cloud patterns on it, and it was very beautiful!
"I want to play, too." Chen Shiyun, who was a little violent, said with envy.
"This is very, very heavy. You can't pick it up!" Xi Xi waved her hand and explained to her, "My PaPa doesn't let me move it. He said it would hurt if I hit my foot."
The children huddled together and giggled as they watched Yang Yi. Yang Yi didn't have stage fright. He put on a posture as if he was going to perform on stage. He first held the stick and cupped his fist to greet the audience.
"Hee hee, it's so fun!" The children were happy first. Everything was so new to them!
Yang Yi put on a posture and began to perform. There was no foreshadowing. As soon as he came up, he used the coolest spinning stick to attract the little guys' attention.
"Wow!" When Yang Yi spun the stick with both hands, the windmill-like shadow of the stick made Lan Xin and the others exclaim again and again. They had never seen such a trick before.
When Yang Yi began to spin the rod with one hand, he even twisted his body, switching from his right hand to his left hand. The whistling sound of the wind and the powerful aura made the little guys dazzled.
Chen Shiyun screamed loudly. She was the most excited. She wished she could go on the stage and do such a cool action in place of Xi Xi's father!
If so, she would definitely be the most popular child in the spring kindergarten!
However, when Yang Yi waved the stick, the smile on his face could not be maintained.
He saw the only two boys in the group of children, Nan Zhaoyu and another little boy. They could stand anywhere, but they stood beside Xi Xi, one on the left and one behind!
What made Yang Yi's eyes spit fire was that Xi Xi was holding Nan Zhaoyu's hand while holding Xi Xi's hand!
How old was he? He still wanted others to hold his hand! Wasn't he childish?!
Alert, level one alert, red alert!
At this moment, Yang Yi only hated that the Jingu Bang in his hand was not the Green Dragon Crescent Blade …
"Ahem!" Yang Yi still stopped. He pretended as if nothing had happened, walked over, and directed the children, "Uncle is going to perform a big one later. Stand aside a little and leave a passage in the middle. Yes, come, Zhaoyu and that child, stand here. Xi Xi, stand over there with Qiqi …"
In order to let Xi Xi isolate the source of danger, Yang Yi even let his die-hard fan, Chen Shiyun, hold Xi Xi's empty hand.
That was pleasing to the eye!
Yang Yi calmly began his performance again. One moment, he did a "Black Dragon Circling the Pillar", the next, he did a "Heavenly Punishment" — he smashed the Jingu Bang on the ground.
The children watched with great interest and did not notice Yang Yi's trick just now.
Of course, Yang Yi really made use of the passage that had just been evacuated. He did a "Tiger Leaping Forward", somersaulting on the grass, and then shading his eyes with his hands, he did a classic "Looking Back at the Moon".
This posture was quite decent. Even the parents who had walked to the door to watch cheered.
"It's good to be young!" Nan Yiyun, who was already 50 years old, sighed.
"I just feel that it's a bit improper for him to jump up and down like a monkey!" A parent couldn't help but mutter.
Yang Guo, who was standing on the side, retorted, "How can you say that it's improper? This is a monkey show. It's an art passed down from the Han Dynasty. In the long river of history, monkey performers gradually groped for it. "
There were similar things in this world! (Don't take it seriously)
Lanzhou Kai also laughed and said, "Whether it's an art or not, I'm now envious of Yang Yi for having such good skills. You see, he's so popular with the children! This is the achievement that parents like us dream of achieving, right? "
