In the evening, the afterglow shone diagonally. Dusk drifted over with a cool breeze. It was as cold as a cicada's wings. The darkness slowly swallowed the last ray of light in the sky. Neon lights lit up quietly. The enthusiasm of the bustling Yunhai City during the day had not dissipated. Men and women in light clothes had already appeared on both sides of the street, wandering around.
Chen Xiao rode the electric scooter he borrowed from a friend and pulled the brand-new barbecue equipment to the place he rented. After placing the barbecue rack, food, and other things properly, he warmly greeted the surrounding bosses. Chen Xiao did not sell beer and other things himself. He only planned to run the barbecue business, and for the time being, it was just a few things.
The surrounding bosses had already set up their tables and chairs. This street was originally a barbecue street, so Chen Xiao's stall was not eye-catching. However, the young and lovely Tang Yuyan standing at the back made the shop eye-catching.
"Xiao Chen, don't cherish your face when you do business at night. You have to learn to attract customers. For someone like you who doesn't have any regular customers, if your taste isn't good, it'll be very difficult for you to have a future.”
A middle-aged man who was sitting on a stool in the back of a shop reminded him with a smile. He naturally welcomed Chen Xiao's arrival. He specialized in selling drinks, tobacco, and alcohol. An additional barbecue restaurant meant more customers.
After more than an hour of preparation, customers finally appeared one after another. They did not choose Chen Xiao's barbecue stall. Chen Xiao also knew that customers were picky and liked to eat in old restaurants that had the right taste. He was not in a hurry for this. He was confident that those customers would have an endless aftertaste after eating his barbecue.
"Brother-in-law, do you want me to go ahead and pull some people?”There was no one in front of the stall. Tang Yuyan was also anxious as she bit her lips and said.
"No, customers will come." Chen Xiao shook her head and comforted her.
Fortunately, there were limited stalls in Yunhai City's food street. The hot summer was a good time to eat barbecue and drink beer. The surrounding barbecue stalls were already filled with people. Those who came late had no choice but to come to Chen Xiao's stall with the attitude of trying.
"What would you like to eat?"
Seeing the customer come over, Tang Yuyan smiled sweetly. She wiped her small hands on her greasy apron and walked to the customer's table with the menu.
The customers were two men and three women. They were obviously young people who came out to eat and stroll. After hearing Tang Yuyan's words, the man sitting in front reached out to take the menu. When he saw that there were only a few dishes on it, he frowned.
"Aiyo, your new barbecue stall is not bad, but it can't be like this. It doesn't even have some basic dishes.”The fashionably dressed woman sitting next to the man held a burning cigarette in her hand and pointed at the menu with her right hand.
"I'm sorry, but our barbeque shop serves only green vegetables and meat. We pursue the taste that our customers are satisfied with. If you don't believe me, I'll make some for you to try.”
Chen Xiao seemed to have guessed the other party's thoughts. She waved a few skewers of cabbage in front of the five people and continued,"Look at the moisture and color of our vegetables. They are definitely the freshest vegetables. Our meat is also the best quality. There is definitely only a small amount of fat.”
The young man was also unwilling to pay attention to Chen Xiao's explanation. He was more concerned about his face in front of the three women. He immediately waved his hand and said,"Then give us a pound of mutton skewers first. Give us ten skewers of the vegetarian ones to try first. If they taste bad, I won't give you money.”
Chen Xiao nodded and agreed to the other party's words. She looked at the red coal under the barbecue grill, turned on the hairdryer below, and placed the skewered food on top of it to roast.
Tang Yuyan quickly noted down the customers 'requests and placed the menu on the table at the side. She also quietly stood in front of Chen Xiao and watched her actions. To be honest, she had never seen Chen Xiao cook, but she did not expect Chen Xiao's cooking skills to be so amazing. Her movements were smooth and smooth, without any awkwardness.
The grill was divided into three parts by Chen Xiao. There were three levels of temperature. The first was to roast on the big fire, constantly wiping the oil, then turn to the medium fire to roast. Finally, it was placed on the small fire to roast continuously, with cumin and other ingredients.
Instantly, the entire stall was filled with fragrance. The customers sitting at the back turned their heads to look in Chen Xiao's direction. They kept swallowing their saliva. It was obvious that they had smelled the fragrance of roasted meat. The customer closest to Chen Xiao's stall also glanced at Chen Xiao. With the help of the blazing white light of the energy-saving lamps, they could see the shiny yellow mutton skewers on the barbecue rack.
"What is this? It smells so good.”
"The kebabs over there are so beautifully roasted.”
“……”
The passersby in front of the stall also stopped and looked at the mutton skewers on Chen Xiao's grill. They subconsciously licked their dry lips. Tang Yuyan also wrinkled her small nose and kept sniffing. She secretly swallowed her saliva. She really did not expect the food made by Chen Xiao to taste so delicious.
"Mutton skewers, the most delicious mutton skewers. First come, first served.”
Chen Xiao was not an ordinary university student. The word 'shy' did not exist in her mind at all. Seeing that the number of people surrounding her was increasing, she immediately shouted at the top of her lungs, scaring Tang Yuyan who was beside her.
"Boss, how much are the kebabs?" someone asked.
"It's a grand opening sale. It's the same price as the mutton skewers sold by the bosses next door. If it's more than 30 yuan, you'll get three skewers of vegetarian dishes.”Chen Xiao replied with a smile. Seeing that she had achieved her goal, she turned around and placed the mutton skewers on the plate on the table beside her.
When Tang Yuyan saw this, she hurriedly brought it up.
"Just based on the color of your barbecue, I'll try it tonight.”A bald man smiled and walked in. He sat on a chair and slammed the table."Boss, give me half a catty of mutton and a bottle of beer. I'll try it first.”
"Alright. Don't worry, I guarantee that you'll be satisfied. The vegetables in our shop are all natural food. There's really no place in Yunhai City that can compare to our vegetables.”Chen Xiao took out a catty of mutton from under the barbecue grill and placed it on the grill. She then asked Tang Yuyan to send up half a catty of mutton that was already cooked.
Many people also came over after hearing the news and wanted to join in the fun. Gradually, the eight barbecue stalls were filled up, and the deserted barbecue stalls instantly became lively.
"Good! The taste was really good. It did not have the smoky smell of charcoal at all. Damn, it felt so good in my mouth. Boss, give me half a catty…no, one catty of meat skewers and a bottle of beer.”The bald man wiped his mouth with a napkin and raised his right hand.
"Alright, I'm coming!"
"Boss, give us five catties of meat skewers.”
"Boss, do you still have cabbage? Give us ten more skewers."
“……”
The first time the stall was opened, it ended because there was not enough food, leaving many customers sighing. It was a pity that there was nothing left after eating a little. Chen Xiao cleaned up her stall apologetically, but she was not prepared to expand the supply of raw materials. Chen Xiao understood the principle that rare goods could be hoarded.
After tidying up the stall and returning home, Tang Yuyan washed the iron pliers. Chen Xiao carried her wallet into the room and directly transferred the money in her wallet into the game. When she saw the newly added five taels of silver and thirty copper coins, Chen Xiao was happy. She did not expect to earn more than 5,000 yuan today. The cost was only about 100 yuan.
"Yuyan, we earned 1,000 yuan today after deducting the cost.”Chen Xiao said with a smile to Tang Yuyan, who had just finished washing the iron skewer.
"Really?" A hint of surprise flashed across Tang Yuyan's pretty face.
"Yes, we'll add two more tables tomorrow so that we can sell faster.”Chen Xiao nodded.
Tang Yuyan wiped the water on her face with the back of her hand and asked,"Then why didn't brother-in-law make more mutton skewers? Wouldn't we be able to earn more that way?”
"I'm just afraid that you'll be tired." Chen Xiao blurted out without thinking. As soon as she finished speaking, she regretted it. Seeing the blush on her sister-in-law's face, Chen Xiao wished she could slap herself twice. It seemed that she must have misunderstood this girl again.
Chen Xiao also wanted to add ten catties of meat skewers, but it was too troublesome to wear meat. After escaping from the room, she saw that the house opposite was brightly lit. Chen Xiao's eyes lit up, and she ran over to knock on the door.
Creak--
The door opened, revealing Jun Mo's expressionless face. He looked at Chen Xiao without moving, as if he was asking Chen Xiao what had happened.
"Hehe, Uncle Jun Mo, business is good. Why don't you help me put on some meat skewers?”Chen Xiao smiled.
Bang!
Jun Mo didn't say anything. He slammed the door shut, leaving Chen Xiao with a helpless expression.
The next day.
Chen Xiao rode his bicycle to Yunhai University. He had also graduated from this school and was very passionate about computers. When he had nothing to do, he would come to the school's computer room to exchange some insights with Teacher Yao Qiang.
Anyway, his business only opened at night, so he didn't need to worry about the materials at all. It was just that the game character in his mind was setting up a stall in the town center of Fresh Breeze Town to buy high-quality meat, which only increased the quality by another level.
He could enter the game by teleporting his consciousness, and he could even leave some consciousness in the real world to control his body. He was really like a human living in two worlds at the same time. After parking the second-hand bicycle that she bought, Chen Xiao walked into the campus with the black backpack in the basket.
Yunhai University didn't lose any popularity because of the holidays. Instead, the university's postgraduate entrance examination army could be seen everywhere. If Chen Xiao had not skipped a grade in the past, she would probably be studying in her fourth year.
Although he had never been the head of the student council, attended any events, or performed any eye-catching performances, many people on the road recognized him. Chen Xiao, the most lowly young master of the Chen family, married a wife who had never even touched her hand. It had already become a laughing stock among the younger generation of the upper class in Yunhai City.
After passing through the door, Chen Xiao arrived at the computer building. There were quite a number of students during the holidays. Looking at the young man and woman who were walking past in a hurry, Chen Xiao shook her head. She was actually not very old. It was just that her heart was old.
Walking to the elevator door, Chen Xiao put her backpack on her back and waited slowly. The elevator slowly descended. Before it was fully opened, they could hear the voices of argument inside.
"Zhao Xinzhi, let me tell you, I already have a boyfriend. Don't bother me anymore.”
A woman in pink flats walked out of the elevator, followed by a fashionably dressed man. His face was full of smiles, and he did not care about the woman's anger at all.
Chen Xiao, who liked to play computer games, often visited the school forum during her university days. However, due to the passing of time, she eventually excluded visiting the forum from her schedule. However, he had seen a photo of the woman in front of him before. It seemed to be a school belle post posted by someone two years ago.
This woman's name was Zhou Yating. He didn't expect her to become more and more beautiful. However, Chen Xiao also knew that she would not have any interaction with such a woman, so she did not feel anything when Zhou Yating appeared.
Zhou Yating was about 1.69 meters tall, and her perfect figure was indeed coveted by many men. Even the rich people outside the school wanted to kiss her. However, Zhou Yating was a little arrogant and didn't care about the sugar-coated bullets from the outside world. There were no rumors of her having a boyfriend.
As she passed by, a fragrant wind blew into her nose. Seeing Zhou Yating walking towards her, Chen Xiao deliberately turned her body to let Zhou Yating pass. Just as Zhou Yating was about to leave, Zhao Xinzhi quickened his pace and grabbed Zhou Yating's right hand.
"Yating, give me a chance tonight. Accompany me to watch a movie.”The smile on Zhao Xinzhi's face was still there, and no one could tell what he was really thinking. The more he was like this, the more dangerous it felt.
Zhou Yating's body was pulled back and she almost fell backward due to inertia. She happened to bump into Chen Xiao's shoulder. Chen Xiao was in pain, but she didn't pay attention to it. She glanced at Zhou Yating, but she realized that Zhou Yating was also glancing at her, and it flashed past her eyes.
"Zhao Xinzhi, how many times have I told you? I have a boyfriend.”
Zhou Yating saw that her move was useless, so she shook off Zhao Xinzhi's right hand and covered her head. Suddenly, her tone became gentle.
"Don't lie to me. I've never heard of this.”Zhao Xinzhi smiled and shook his head. Although he recognized Chen Xiao, he did not need to deliberately befriend such trash. It would not even take much effort to pinch him to death.
Zhou Yating glanced at Chen Xiao and nodded,""I just accepted him. He's my boyfriend.”
