Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When the students came out, they would also buy some cold cakes to bring home.
It was peak time for business when school finished.
In order to avoid making the guests wait, Lin Xiaoyue Asked Aunt Wang to help her collect the money, while she kept packing and cutting the cold cakes.
This way, the cold cakes sold quickly.
Lin Xiaoyue sold 6 to 8 buckets of cold cakes in a short while.
She didn’t find it tiring. She got another bucket, cut the cold cakes, and added brown sugar syrup without stopping.
People who wanted to buy or were curious about the cold cakes saw that although there were many people lining up in front of the stall, the line was moving very fast, and many people joined in.
There were also many scholars who lived in the academy.
These scholars rarely packed the cold cakes and took them away. They just came to watch the fun and see what the stall was selling and why the business was so good.
Some scholars had heard about it from their classmates. They heard that the cold cakes sold here were exactly the same as those sold at Ruyi Restaurant, but the price was just half of that from Ruyi Restaurant, so they came to try it.
After they tried it, they were conquered by the refreshing taste.
Many people ordered a second bowl.
Seeing that there were more scholars who came to buy the cold cakes today than yesterday, and that after eating the cold cakes, they all had looks of appreciation or satisfaction, Lin Xiaoyue understood.
She knew that her business would definitely explode.
The scholars who bought her cold cakes would not only become her returning customers, but also help her build her reputation.
She could already imagine her business sweeping the entire Qingyun Academy.
After the peak period, Lin Xiaoyue only had 3 buckets of cold cakes left.
Finally, there was no one waiting in line. Lin Xiaoyue then asked Aunt Wang to wash the dishes.
She continued to receive the occasional customers.
“This is not bad! It’s a pity that it’s hard to find a seat.” The two scholars who had come to buy the cold cakes finished eating. One of them handed the bowl and spoon to Lin Xiaoyue as he spoke.
There were only four seats, and it was open air. Even if some wanted to try it, they were not willing to stand or sit by the roadside.
Fortunately, the two of them didn’t mind, or they would have missed such a delicious snack.
“Hehe, this is only temporary. When the shop opens, it will be better.”
Lin Xiaoyue looked at the two scholars with enthusiasm.
“Are you satisfied with the cold cakes?”
The two scholars were dazzled by her bright smile.
She was straightforward and generous, delicate and friendly.
They wondered which man was so lucky.
“Of course! Please help me give me another bowl!” The scholar at the back handed over the bowl.
When the previous scholar heard this, he quickly added, “I’ll have another bowl too!”
Then, he looked at Lin Xiaoyue in embarrassment. “We are together. Can you…”
In fact, he also wanted to eat more in the beginning, but he felt that 5 wen was not worth it if he bought two for himself.
Now that his classmate wanted another bowl, he wanted to have another bowl too.
“Of course, I’ll calculate them together! Even if you don’t pay together, the first bowl was not discounted, but the second bowl was only 3 wen for each of you. Just give me 4 wen each!” Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
Then, she took the bowls and cut the cold cakes for the two.
“You’re so generous!” They said with a smile..
