Fast Travel: Endangered Pup Rescue Project

Chapter 656: The Mother Exploiting Her Daughter

After convincing her daughter Wei Zhu to resign, Song Xia bought a second-hand cart. She promised Wei Deng to find a job as a dishwasher or a supermarket shelf clerk, but she had already made up her mind to set up a stall.

When she rented the house that day, she noticed that there were many people setting up stalls near the hospital, selling snacks, fruits, etc. After seeing Wei Deng off, she also asked in person. Generally, no one would drive away scattered stalls like theirs, as long as they did not occupy major traffic routes.

However, sometimes at the end of the month or when the city is in a state of rigor, you may have to close your stall for a few days. In most cases, the urban management staff are very friendly.

Song Xia is very confident in her skills, and setting up a stall is much better than having to face other people's faces at work. Especially at her age, the jobs she can find are all hard and low-paying, so it is better for her to do it herself.

After inspecting the market for a day, she had an idea of ​​what to sell at her stall. There were not only patients and their families from the hospital here, but also many ordinary office workers from the building next door, so she sold cakes.

Sell ​​fast food such as meat patties and scallion pancakes, and drink such as soy milk. As the weather gets colder, you can add lotus root powder or hot porridge depending on business. As long as these snacks are not too unpalatable and the price is reasonable, business will basically not be bad.

After buying the second-hand cart, she went on to buy some oil pans, gas tanks and other things. That evening, she sorted out the raw materials to be sold the next day, which would make it much faster to set up the stall the next day.

For dinner, she ate the meat patties and scallion pancakes she made herself. The meat patties were crispy and juicy, the scallion pancakes were fragrant, and even the soy milk was thick and smooth. She nodded in satisfaction after eating it.

Little did she know that this fragrance had been tormenting the neighbors for a while. Although the house she rented was larger than an ordinary one-bedroom apartment, it was an urban village after all, and the distance between buildings was not that far. Although it was late at this time, many office workers had just returned from overtime and were already hungry. The smell made them even more uncomfortable.

Song Xia didn't care about all this. She went to bed early and got up early the next day. It was her first day setting up the stall, so she naturally had to get up early. By the time she moved everything downstairs, it was still dark. However, when she arrived at the location, there were already two small stalls there.

One of them was a man selling fried rice and fried noodles. Song Xia had seen him last night. He should be setting up the stall in the morning and evening. The other one was a young woman selling sandwiches. Not only did she sell sandwiches, but she also had a stand and a mobile phone next to her. I don't know if she was live streaming or recording a video.

Seeing her new face, the man showed no expression, but the young woman smiled at Song Xia.

At this time, the restaurant had already started to pick up business, and most of the customers were regular men and young women. Song Xia quickly turned on the fire, poured in the oil, put the dough in first, and then took out the soy milk and placed it next to it.

As the oil temperature rose, the aroma of meat patties and scallion pancakes began to spread, and then Song Xia welcomed her first order.

"Boss, what kind of cake is this? How much is it?"

Song Xia smiled and said, "Meat pie is 4.5 yuan each, scallion pie is 3 yuan each, and soy milk is 2 yuan a cup. I personally chopped the stuffing in the pie and cooked the soy milk myself. Handsome guy, which one do you want?"

The office guy didn't quite believe that she even made the soy milk herself. After all, many cup-packaged soy milks nowadays are purchased from small factories or mixed with soy milk powder. How could such a small stall make its own soy milk?
But the auntie was very nice. Since he was already here, she was too embarrassed to refuse, so she casually said, "It's just one meat pie and one scallion pie. Have a cup of soy milk, too."

"Okay, that's nine dollars and a half." Song Xia finally realized that she had missed a point, that is, she didn't make a price list. She couldn't answer every customer who came. Moreover, the city's regulations on businesses also require clear price tags. Forget it, it's too late now. I'll make another one after I sell out. The man who bought the cake was named Jiang Hong. He was a nurse working in the hospital. He went out early and came back late every day. He had three meals a day outside. Sometimes the patient's family would bring him food, but more often, he ate at small stalls like this outside, or ordered takeout.

He looked at the time and realized that he got up late today. He didn't know whether the Grandpa Zhao, whom he was taking care of, had woken up today. If he was late, Grandpa Zhao would make a fuss again. So he picked up the biscuits and soy milk that Song Xia had packed and ran to the hospital.

After Jiang Hong left, Song Xia made more and more pancakes, and the fragrance became stronger and stronger, attracting many people who originally did not plan to eat too greasy food in the morning. It was not that they were undisciplined, but the pancakes were really fragrant!

With a try-it attitude, Song Xia's stall began to attract customers. Most people would buy a cup of soy milk when they bought a cake. The cakes she made were not very small, so female customers basically ordered one cake and a cup of soy milk, while male customers mostly ordered two cakes and a cup of soy milk.

Someone also asked if there were any tea eggs. Song Xia thought about adding this category tomorrow. The main reason is that it is easy to cook tea eggs, and when selling them, they can be bagged just like soy milk.

Some customers were not in a hurry, so they opened the cake and started eating it, then they opened their eyes wide in surprise and said, "Boss, your cake tastes good."

Another person nodded and said, "Soy milk tastes good too. Why do I feel it tastes better than the one I make at home?"

Song Xia smiled and explained: "It's delicious. I'll come back next time. The soy milk tastes good because it contains not only soybeans but also peanuts, millet and rice. It tastes smoother and more mellow than ordinary soy milk."

"No wonder! This drink is not like those half-finished products out there."

After hearing what the customers said, those who originally didn't plan to buy soy milk ordered a cup, inserted a straw and took a sip. It was just as delicious as the woman said. The two dollars were totally worth it. I thought the two people were hired as agents just now. Fortunately, I didn't question them, otherwise it would be embarrassing. Besides, embarrassment is a small matter. What if the boss doesn't sell to them in the future?
On the other side, Jiang Hong brought breakfast to the ward and found that the caregiver, Mr. Zhao, was still asleep. He breathed a sigh of relief, then opened the bag of meat patties and started eating.

I took a bite and the juice almost overflowed from the pancake. It was so delicious!

While enjoying the food, he didn't notice that Uncle Zhao had woken up at this time. Also awake was another patient in the ward. Both of them were awakened by the fragrance.

Uncle Zhao looked at the cake in his hand and reached out to touch the other one. When did this boy become so good at eating?

It was only after the soy milk had been touched that Jiang Hong realized where the rest of his breakfast was.
Uncle Zhao drank the soy milk with great enjoyment: "Just one is not enough. I'll give you money to buy a few more. You just had meat patties, right? Bring two for Brother Lin, and don't forget the soy milk."

Jiang Hong didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this: "Uncle Zhao, don't eat anything rashly when you just feel better. What if you get sick from eating?"

"What's bad? I, your uncle Zhao, have lived for many years. I know that these cakes and soy milk are made of good ingredients as soon as I taste them. Go buy them quickly before they're gone."
