From selling box lunches to becoming a famous Chinese chef

Chapter 81 The elder sister who helps shout

The stall was set up before Feng Zhengming could say anything.

An older lady pushing several boxes of soda on a tricycle came over.

"Little brother, do you also sell box lunches?"

Feng Zhengming responded with a smile: "Yes, eldest sister, I also sell lunch boxes. Would you like one, eldest sister?"

The eldest sister immediately said: "I can't afford to eat. I can't make much money a day by selling some soda."

Feng Zhengming said: "Sister, please set up a stall next to my stall, so that people who come to buy box lunches from me might also buy your soda on the way?"

The lady selling soda drinks came over because she wanted to sell something with Feng Zhengming.

After hearing what Feng Zhengming said, the soda seller immediately said, "Thank you, little brother."

Feng Zhengming said: "It is not easy for everyone to do business. We help each other and we are complementary."

The soda seller looked over and the couple who had set up a stall to sell boxed lunches couldn't help but scold them in a low voice.

"Little brother, you are a nice person. Look at the couple over there. I wanted to sell next to their stall before, but they wouldn't let me sell next to them. In the past two days, they made their own soup and brought it over because they were afraid that I would be there. If they sell water, they won’t sell their soup.”

Feng Zhengming looked over and asked, "Do they still need more money for the soup?"

The soda seller immediately said, "Yes, I heard it costs 1 cents a bowl."

Feng Zhengming couldn't help but said: "It's not cheap."

The soda seller said, "Well, there's nothing in the soup. One cent is equivalent to buying a bowl of salted water."

Feng Zhengming suddenly laughed and felt that what the water seller said was quite reasonable.

Then, the couple selling box lunches started shouting.

"They sell box lunches, with both meat and vegetables available. They cost 1 yuan each. You can choose any dish you want, and rice costs 5 cents."

Feng Zhengming was a little surprised when he heard the shouting.

Unexpectedly, the couple actually lowered the price, and all the meat and vegetable dishes were only one yuan a portion.

It seems that my own flesh is really putting a lot of pressure on the couple.

Feng Zhengming saw the couple shouting loudly, and many passengers, either coming to take the train or leaving the train station, followed the sound and surrounded the couple's box lunch stall.

The lady selling soda drinks shouted something over there, and many people gathered around the lunch stall over there.

The eldest sister quickly said to Feng Zhengming: "You should shout a few words quickly, otherwise people will go to their side and your lunch box will not be sold."

I saw that the lady selling soda drinks was more anxious than myself.

Feng Zhengming smiled and said, "Don't worry, I don't want to steal their business. Let them sell something first. When I start cooking, they will have no chance."

The soda seller was a little surprised when she heard this and didn't believe Feng Zhengming's words at all.

Seeing that more and more people are gathering around there.

The lady selling soda drinks felt a little regretful: If I had known better, I would have sold sodas near the couple's box lunch stall, and maybe I could have taken the opportunity to sell a few bottles.

But she felt regretful, and the soda seller was too embarrassed to walk away from Feng Zhengming.

Finally, the soda seller couldn't help it, opened her mouth and started shouting, and helped Feng Zhengming to shout.

"Come and take a look. There are lunch boxes and sodas for sale here. Everyone, come and take a look."

Feng Zhengming didn't expect it at all. He originally wanted to wait before shouting. He waited for the train station staff to come and buy food first, and then yelled himself, so that he didn't have to leave it for the train station staff.

As a result, the lady selling soda next to her couldn't help herself and started to drink for herself.

The soda sales lady yelled like this, and the effect was immediate. Some tourists who saw the crowd there chose to gather around Feng Zhengming. “What kind of food do you have here?”

"Why only four pots of food?"

"There are more than a dozen over there, but you only have four here. There are too few choices, and there is no place to sit."

"Let's go, let's go over there and line up. At least we'll have more choices."

Seeing some of the people gathered around, they seemed dissatisfied that they only had four dishes.

Feng Zhengming opened a large pot of meat.

"My four pots are all hard dishes. I don't sell other dishes here. They are two pots of meat and two pots of vegetarian dishes. The meat is 5 cents a piece. Vegetables are 1 yuan a piece, rice. It’s 5 cents a serving, just like theirs. How about it? Do you want to try one?”

The moment Feng Zhengming opened the lid of the pot, the aroma of meat in the pot was like a hook.

In an instant, all the passengers who were about to leave were hooked.

Even the soda lady who was helping to shout could not help but turn her head and look into the pot.

In the big pot, there was a steaming pot of neatly stacked fat and thin red and shiny meat slices. There were tofu, dried tofu, and gluten on the side. In the middle of the pot was a soy sauce-colored soup, and inside were pieces of the same reddish-brown color. Eggs and large green peppers.

After just one glance, the soda seller felt that she couldn't take her eyes away.

At the same time, some people who were about to leave turned around and stopped when they saw the handfuls of meat in the pot.

I don’t know who shouted first: “Give me a portion, and I’ll have the same thing as everything in your pot.”

This shout immediately woke up the stunned people next to him.

A group of people clamored to Feng Zhengming to buy it.

Feng Zhengming quickly put the lid on the pot first, and then said seriously: "If you want to buy, please line up and come one by one. Don't worry, I have prepared a lot today, two pots of meat, everyone can get it if you line up." Buy it.”

The crowd gathered in front of the stall quickly lined up one by one when they saw Feng Zhengming holding down the pot lid.

Seeing everyone lining up, Feng Zhengming opened the lid of the pot again and started selling one by one.

At this time, no one was dissatisfied that Feng Zhengming had no place to sit here.

No one says anymore that Feng Zhengming only has four dishes.

Everyone even felt that Feng Zhengming’s two pots of vegetarian dishes were a bit redundant.

Who would eat vegetarian food when the meat is so fragrant?
  There were a lot of people queuing up here for the couple selling box lunches, waiting to buy their box lunches.

But suddenly someone came over, pulled the friend who was queuing up here and said, "Let's go over there, that shop sells meat that's really delicious."

The people who were originally queuing here, when they heard what their friend said, immediately turned around and followed their friend to Feng Zhengming's side.

With the first one, there will naturally be a second one.

Soon, people who were queuing up to buy box lunches at the couple's side started queuing up at Feng Zhengming's side.

Some people who had already bought a box lunch and sat down to eat asked the couple to help look at the box lunch, and ran over to buy a piece of meat and eat it back.

Liu Qing, a woman, saw a long queue forming over there and said helplessly to her husband: "It's over, we have enough to guard today."

The man Xu Yingzhu was also helpless: "I can only wait until he sells out."

I met the soda seller next to Feng Zhengming's stall and soon realized that I had made the right choice.

People who bought Feng Zhengming's meat box lunch were carrying the meal next to them. Some of them didn't bring water. When they saw a soda seller next to them, they bought a bottle of soda to quench their thirst.
