Xiaoxiao took the smallest jar from Ning Erlang. “It’s the bamboo shoot, not bitter or astringent. It’s moderately salty, sour, and crispy. Do you want to try it?”

Seeing that Shopkeeper Xu’s expression was calm as he tried the dishes, she could not tell whether he was satisfied or disdainful. She could only sigh at him and continued to say. “If you order a large number of bamboo shoots, I will give you two free new dishes. I’m honest with you. You can check the goods first before paying.”

This explanation was novel. Shopkeeper Xu asked, “How do we check the goods?”

Xiaoxiao said, “It’s very simple. Lend me the kitchen. I’ll make it for you guys to try.”

The culinary skills couldn’t be shown to others. Shopkeeper Xu cleared a small kitchen for Xiaoxiao and then sat down with Shopkeeper Liu, who was joining the fun, and the Ning brothers.

Xiaoxiao’s dishes were very simple. One was stir-fried shredded meat with sour bamboo shoots, and the other was steamed cured meat with sour bamboo shoots. The dishes didn’t require much skill, and one could tell at a glance. However, those side dishes were stir-fried until they were crispy and refreshing, and the heat was appropriate. They complemented the sour bamboo shoots perfectly.

The red and green chili peppers, the white shredded meat and bamboo shoots, and the green onions were tempting.

The other plate of sour bamboo shoots with cured meat. The restaurant made the cured meat. The sour bamboo shoots completely stimulated the fragrance of the meat. One bite of meat and one bite of bamboo shoots. If there was some wine, it would be even more fragrant.

Shopkeeper Xu was very satisfied with the taste but said, “Even if you don’t teach us this recipe, we can quickly figure it out ourselves.”

Of course, there was no shortage of smart people in the world, and Xiaoxiao did not have the habit of thinking too highly of herself. She looked up at the sky with her hands behind her back. “There are other recipes, but that’s another price.”

Shopkeeper Xu couldn’t help but laugh. He poured a glass of wine for Shopkeeper Liu. “Your friend is very interesting.”

Then, he told Xiaoxiao, “If you want to cooperate with me, you can’t sell me now and sell to others later.”

Xiaoxiao nodded and said pugilistically, “I understand the rules. You can ask Shopkeeper Liu. I’m honest in doing the business.”

The two chatted happily. When Ning Erlang came out of the restaurant with 500 copper coins and two pieces of silver, he was still a little confused. “I only know now that my sister usually hid her strength when she tricked me.”

How could she persuade the shopkeeper to accept their bamboo shoots with just a few words? He even asked them to deliver them again five days later. They should send seven jars at a time, and the shopkeeper offered a price of 200 copper coins for each jar. Then, he would increase and decrease according to the customers’ reactions! Let him calculate how many copper coins they could earn in a month.

He couldn’t even resist his sister dragging him to the grocery store because he was so excited.

As Xiaoxiao wished, she bought a new jar and a set of bowls. Her reason was good.

“We don’t have beautiful jars.”

“Only when you have a complete set of bowls can you feel the happiness of a family reunion when you eat!”

Alright, alright. We have money now, so you can buy it.

After buying, Xiaoxiao went to buy some things for setting up the stall, such as oil paper. She bought a whole piece and cut it into small portions. The quality would immediately increase no matter what kind of pickled vegetables, snacks, or sweets the oil paper covered.

Ning Erlang waved his hand and said generously, “Buy it.” When he was done, he returned with the empty bag and remembered. “Sister, since you want to do business with the restaurant, why do you still want me to rent a stall?”

Xiaoxiao looked at the sky from afar. Of course, it was so that she could come out to play legitimately, but she said, “I still don’t know if the restaurant will work. We only need to send the bamboo shoots once every seven days to the restaurant. We can also earn money by setting up a stall at other times. Our family is so poor.. Huh…”
