"The water was just heated, so it’s a bit hot. Be careful not to burn yourselves."
"That’s right! Be careful it’s hot, nice uncles."
Tongtong followed behind Jiang Liu, her little hands behind her back, as she reminded them.
The n were all very polite in their response.
"Okay, okay, we got it. Thank you, boss."
"Thank you for your concern, Tongtong."
"We were blind before and didn’t recognize greatness. We thought this was so kind of scam joint, haha."
Guo Zhifei rubbed his hands together awkwardly and scratched his head.
He had been the one with the most extre reaction earlier.
Jiang Liu waved his hand dismissively. "It’s nothing. The custor’s satisfaction is my greatest fulfillnt."
[Positive Review Points 250]
[Current Total: 1000]
Seeing he had received more points, Jiang Liu’s mood imdiately brightened.
He was one step closer to unlocking the next dish.
The older ones, Huang Yunfeng and Guo Zhifei, gave Jiang Liu a surprised look. They hadn’t expected this young man to have such a thorough understanding of how to do business.
Huang Yunfeng gave Jiang Liu a slight nod.
He poured himself a glass of water and took a small sip.
The taste was clear, sweet, and completely unlike the bottled water sold on the market.
His dark, weathered face showed his enjoynt as he savored it.
Huang Yunfeng was amazed. He couldn’t help but look up and ask:
"Boss, this water... where do you buy it?"
"What’s up, Brother Huang? Why are you asking that?"
The other n looked up from their buns to glance at Huang Yunfeng.
Jiang Liu smiled and explained:
"That’s good stuff you’re asking about. It’s natural spring water, brought in from unpolluted mountains. It’s a bit hard to co by."
It wasn’t exactly a priceless treasure, but it was rarely available on the open market.
Guo Zhifei was shocked. He stopped wolfing down his food and looked up.
"Holy crap, Brother Huang, from the sound of it, this water is actually rare?"
"Hey, hey, hey! What are you doing, Liu Xing?"
"Damn it, Liu Xing, what are you doing hugging that teapot? Are you trying to hoard it all for yourself? Let go, let’s share!"
Hearing that the water wasn’t for sale, Huang Yunfei was disappointed.
He had wanted to get so for his wife and kids. This water tasted much better than the bottled water he bought from the water company at ho.
"Well, alright then. Since I can’t buy it, I’ll just have to co here every day to drink it, haha."
Huang Yunfei said jokingly.
"No problem. You can co over for a drink anyti."
Jiang Liu didn’t mind at all.
In less than ten minutes, the pot of water and the buns were completely devoured by the five n.
Huang Yunfeng rubbed his stomach, still wanting more.
They all worked construction and had big appetites.
"Boss, give us another twenty buns. This stuff is too good, you never get tired of it. It’s making my mouth water."
"To be honest, I usually can’t eat more than seven buns before I’m done, but I’ve already had nine today!"
Jiang Liu: "Alright, coming right up. Just a mont."
"No problem, no problem. I’ll wait as long as it takes."
One minute later.
Tongtong brought the buns over.
"Enjoy your al, uncles. When you’re finished, please call for Tongtong!"
"Yes, yes, of course."
"Alright, little one."
The mont the buns were set down, the n dropped all pretense of restraint, reaching out to grab them and stuff them into their mouths.
Every single bite was a blissful satisfaction for their taste buds.
Fifteen minutes later.
After finishing their al, the five n got another thirty buns to go.
They said it was to let their boss and the leaders at the construction site have a taste.
Jiang Liu used a calculator to tally up this order.
Total sold: 20 Chive and Egg Buns for 100 yuan, 25 Three-Delicacy Buns for 150 yuan, 20 Pork and Scallion Buns for 120 yuan, and 20 Shrimp and Corn Buns for 300 yuan.
Adding the previous 68, his total inco was now 738.
When he saw the total inco he’d calculated,
Jiang Liu couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath.
Good lord, just two orders—you could even say it was just one big order—had almost pushed him past one thousand!
Other breakfast shops might look like they sell a lot in a day, but a daily revenue of just a few thousand would be considered amazing.
Most importantly, this wasn’t money earned from a one-ti rip-off.
After all, the custors who had eaten here were all very satisfied. They might beco regulars!
"Daddy, you keep smiling. Why?"
Tongtong tilted her head, looking puzzled at Jiang Liu, who was grinning foolishly at the calculator.
"It’s nothing, it’s nothing. Tongtong, guess how much money we just made?"
"A lot?"
"670!"
"Wow, that’s so much! Tongtong helped a lot!"
"Of course you did. My Tongtong is the best!"
"Daddy, you’re so honest. I love you, hehe."
"Daddy, I have an idea, but I don’t know if I should say it."
Jiang Liu was in a great mood. "Go ahead. I’ll grant your wish."
"Can I not go to school today? I want to stay and help Daddy make money!"
Tongtong nervously tugged on Jiang Liu’s pants, looking up at him with pitiful eyes.
Jiang Liu blew on his palm. "Sure. But first, you have to take a few spankings from ."
"If you don’t cry, I’ll agree."
"Daddy..."
Tongtong was dumbfounded.
Just then, a sweet, youthful voice ca from the doorway.
"Ooh, there’s a new shop. Let’s go check it out."
"Boss, what do you have to eat?"
A few pretty high school girls, riding bicycles and wearing backpacks, peered in from the entrance.
They were dressed in blue and white school uniforms, their clear eyes full of curiosity.
Before Jiang Liu could say a word,
Tongtong zipped out the door.
"Yes! We have lots! Please, co in, kind and pretty big sisters!"
As she spoke, she made a comical welcoming gesture, bowing and extending both hands toward the inside of the shop, palms up.
The high school girls’ eyes practically sparkled.
"This little girl is so, so, so cute! Ahh!"
"I love her to death!"
"Little sister, what’s your na? Can you tell ?"
A girl with pigtails squatted down in front of Tongtong, held her little hand, and asked gently.
"Kind and pretty big sister, I’m Jiang Tongtong, but my daddy calls Tongtong!"
"Hehe."
Tongtong said in her child-like voice, then gave a bashful smile, revealing her canine teeth.
"Tongtong, that’s such a lovely na, isn’t it, Yao Yao?"
The girl with pigtails was nad Yang Touyang. She had a sweet and charming air about her and was the most striking of the three.
The girl nad Yao Yao was pretty in an ordinary way, but her figure was exaggeratedly curvaceous. It was hard to imagine a high schooler could have such a voluptuous figure.
"Yeah, it’s a nice na. And such a cute kid."
"Wow!"
"You guys, co feel this! Her cheeks are so soft and warm, it feels so nice!"
"Really? Tongtong, let your big sister feel too, okay? I’ll buy your buns."
"Let feel too! I’ll buy so too."
The girls surrounded Tongtong and started stroking and pinching her cheeks.
They were absolutely smitten with her.
Tongtong’s collagen-filled cheeks were pinched into all sorts of shapes.
She forced a smile.
Her little fists were already clenched tightly.
She scread internally:
’Daddy, are you watching? You have to watch Tongtong! Look at what Tongtong is enduring! She’s making a huge sacrifice for your shop!’
Finally, the three felt a little embarrassed about all the cheek-pinching and led a red-faced Tongtong inside.
Tongtong breathed a sigh of relief inwardly.
The mont they stepped inside, they saw Jiang Liu behind the counter.
Yang Touyang’s fair face flushed red.
She thought to herself, ’Is that the owner? No wonder his daughter is so pretty. He’s so handso... Soone that good-looking must not have a single worry in the world...’
The other two girls also stared, dumbfounded.
At their age, they were most fond of handso guys, especially the kind who exuded an aura of maturity.
It was, it was... wow!
Jiang Liu felt a bit uncomfortable under their intense stares.
He rubbed his itchy eyebrow.
"Ahem. Can I help you ladies?"
"Huh? What’s wrong?"
The three snapped out of it, reining in their wandering thoughts.
...Jiang Liu was speechless. ’They co into my shop and ask what’s wrong?’
He smiled and reminded them:
"Welco to my little shop. We currently serve buns. You can see the nu on the blackboard behind , so I won’t bore you with a long introduction."
"Oh, okay, okay. We’ll take a look then."
After a few glances,
Yao Yao and Niu Lili, the refined-looking girl with the gold-rimd glasses, both widened their eyes.
Yang Touyang’s slender, beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.
Her willow-like eyebrows furrowed almost imperceptibly before relaxing.
She was a "little rich girl," after all, with a monthly allowance of seven or eight thousand. She didn’t care about this little expense. Besides, with such a handso guy to look at, spending a little money was like making an investnt in the handso boss.
"Boss, give us, um, six Three-Delicacy Buns, nine Shrimp and Corn Buns, and... three Pork and Scallion Buns."
"Mhm, alright. Coming right up."
