163 Business Is Booming
Su Binglan nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll go to the backyard. Keep up the excellent work.”
Indeed, Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin had been very busy. The customers were urging them to sell their sesame buns and haggis soup, afraid the shop would run out of them.
Su Binglan went to the backyard to rest and saw four buckets of sheep offal. She knew Zhou Shan had bought them at the market as she told him to. However, she did not expect him to buy four whole buckets of sheep offal.
There was enough offal for her brother and sister-in-law to make haggis soup for many days.
Su Binglan went to the dessert shop, and Zhou Shan gave her the remainder of the money she had given him to buy sheep offal. “Boss, you gave me 50 coins just now, so this is the remaining 30.”
“You only spent 20 coins for four buckets of offal?” Su Binglan was shocked.
Zhou Shan replied, “The person at the market was preparing to throw them away, but since I wanted them, he only asked for five coins per bucket. Although he doesn’t know how good the offal is, he will find out later.
“When that time comes, he will feel like he has undercharged me. Still, I’ve already bought four buckets of offal from him, so no matter what, the offal belongs to us, and he can’t say anything about it. Besides, we need to continue doing business, so we need to buy more in the future.”
If Su Binglan had agreed with her third uncle that she would buy haggis and sheep for him, she would not need to buy them at the market.
However, business would undoubtedly be booming, considering the long queue outside the shop. When the shop became more popular, it would not be enough for Su Binglan just to buy sheep offal from her third uncle. She might even need to buy them in town.
…
Lin Zheng, Li Shi, and Zhou Shan listened carefully to what their boss said. They knew their boss was giving them advice. The trio had not been by their boss’s side for long, but they still felt they had already learned a lot.
When Su Binglan finished advising them, she said, “I’ll look after the shop now. You three can go to the backyard and rest. I’ve prepared some buns and soup for you to eat.”
She wanted to join them for lunch, but since she had eaten at the academy, she decided to leave them be.
The trio was grateful as they said in unison, “Thank you, Boss!”
Su Binglan looked at the excited trio and jokingly scolded, “Why are you three still here?! Go and eat!”
“Y-Yes, Boss!”
Naturally, the trio was excited to eat as they could smell the rich fragrance wafting from the tofu shop. They were famished. Moreover, they knew their boss’s food would undoubtedly be delicious.
The trio’s eyes lit up when they took a bite of their sesame buns.
“Wow, this is delicious!”
“Of course, how could Boss’s food not be? Didn’t you see that long queue outside the tofu shop?”
“I heard we don’t have a limited supply of soup and buns. Some customers might not even be able to get them even if they queue up for a long time. Still, we don’t need to queue up to eat these incredible dishes!”
“I guess that’s the benefit of working with our boss. We can eat all her delicious food.”
“Our boss is so good to us.”
“Indeed. That’s why we must work hard and be loyal.”
“I will listen to whatever she tells me.”
The trio ate and thought about how good Su Binglan was to them.
…
Meanwhile, Su Wenzhe and his wife had been busy the whole afternoon in the tofu shop. They had almost sold all of their soup and buns.
“I’m so sorry, sir. We don’t have any soup left, but we have a few buns.” Su Wenzhe wiped the sweat off his forehead as he spoke. He did not expect the business to become so prosperous so quickly.
Still, they did not have enough soup or buns as there was still a long queue outside the shop. Some could not take it anymore and even became impatient.
“Sir, we’ve been in line for so long. We can’t just leave without the dishes.”
“Yeah, I’ve been here for a long time. I’m still waiting to try the soup and buns you guys made for lunch.”
“Can’t you make some more?”
“Yeah, hurry up and make more. We’re already here.”
“Sir, I have money to get a big bowl of soup.”
The few people at the front of the queue thought they were close to getting their buns and haggis soup. However, they felt disappointed when Su Wenzhe told them they had run out of food. Naturally, they tried to bargain for more.
Meanwhile, those who had just joined the queue were okay with leaving since they had not waited too long. It did not matter if the people at the end of the line could not try the new dishes that day because they would just return to the shop earlier the following day.
The folk at the back of the queue were late simply because they heard about the new dishes later than the others. They only knew the Su family was serving new dishes when they saw the long queue in front of the tofu shop.
Liu Yinyin and her husband looked at the disappointed customers and felt embarrassed yet somewhat pleased. Still, they remembered Su Binglan’s advice and knew they could not cook more food for now.
Su Wenzhe looked at his wife and said, “You watch the shop while I go and ask Binglan for her opinion.”
“Okay, go quickly.”
Su Wenzhe went to the dessert shop and saw Su Binglan. “Sister, there are no more buns and soup, but the customers still want to eat. Should we make some more?”
After some thought, Su Binglan replied, “Make another pot, but before that, tell everyone that you can only make one more pot and that they have to return tomorrow if they want more.
“That’s the only way, so everyone will remember to come earlier next time. That way, you will be busy at noon, and you can rest a little afterward.”
“Okay, Little Sister.” Su Wenzhe knew that what his sister said made sense and that it would not be a problem to do as she instructed.
Su Binglan looked toward the backyard and said, “It just so happens I’ve told Lin Zheng and the other two to wash the offal. You can make more soup if you hurry up.”
“Okay, I’ll do it right away,” Su Wenzhe hurriedly replied.
Su Binglan looked at her brother’s slightly panicked demeanor and pondered before saying, “Tell Lin Zheng and the other two to look after the shop. I’ll come and help you.”
Su Wenzhe heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that. Still, he was anxious because the customers were getting impatient. However, he still needed time to make more soup.
“Thank you, Little Sister.”
“There’s no need to thank me. We’re family.”
Lin Zheng and the other two looked after the two shops while Su Binglan, Su Wenzhe, and Liu Yinyin made more buns and soup.
“Big Brother, there are prepared mutton bones in the pot over there, so you can make the haggis soup faster. You just need a little more time making the buns. Also, use a bigger pot to make more noodles in the future.”
Su Wenzhe nodded and said, “Okay, I’ll remember that.”
The trio quickly made one more pot of haggis soup, and Su Wenzhe took it to the front to pass them to the customers.
As for the buns, it took longer because the dough needed time to rise. Despite that, they would rise quicker with the addition of spiritual spring water and the appropriate temperature. Half an hour later, the buns were finally ready.
The customers revealed satisfied smiles after they finally ate their share of buns and soup.
When a woman finished eating with her child, she said smilingly, “Sir, the food was delicious! It was well worth the wait. My child agrees. We ate quite a lot for lunch.”
Su Wenzhe smiled brightly and said, “I’m thrilled you enjoyed our food. We welcome you to the shop anytime.”
“Don’t worry. From now on, I will be your regular customer. I used to buy tofu and candied chestnuts from your sister too.”
…
When Su Binglan finished her work at the shop, she returned to the backyard but not to rest. Instead, she designed acupuncture needles and a scalpel.
After making these things, she could finally start treating her father’s foot. As for the scalpel, the earlier she could make it, the more helpful it would be later.
