Pastoral Master

Chapter 12 Special Wonton Stall
"En!" Yan Ruxue nodded confidently. "In the future, if you are going to the academy, I will be too busy to roll the skins and greet the guests by myself, so I only spend two and a half hours in the morning. Wash the bowl, roll out the skin, chop the stuffing..."

"But..." Yan Chen pondered slightly. "There are only these two small alleys here, and there are rich people beside them. Even if it is next to the academy, can anyone come to eat this small wonton stall?"

Yan Ruxue smiled lightly. "Fool, I have a way to get someone to come!"

"any solution?"

Yan Ruxue smiled mysteriously. "Yes, eat wontons!"

"Right? Eat wontons?" Yan Chen was puzzled.

Yan Ruxue nodded. "Literati all have a kind of aloofness. When we set up a stall, we put out a banner at the same time. If we can get the right pair, then we can eat wontons for free at our stall. If we can't, we will get double. Bei! This banner must be hung at the gate of the academy!"

Yan Chen laughed. "Sister, are you going to declare war on the academy?"

Yan Ruxue smiled. "In terms of learning, I'm definitely no match for the gentlemen in the academy, but in terms of being right, I'm really not afraid of them!"

Yan Chen didn't doubt this at all, the whole thing sounded unbelievable, but after thinking about it carefully, it seems that this matter is not impossible, and it won't cost a few dollars, maybe you can try it!

The siblings are both activists. They said they would do it the next day. First, they went to the vegetable market to buy big pork bones. They ate them by themselves yesterday, so it doesn’t matter whether they have broth or not, but now that they are going to set up a stall , then these wines can't be saved. Fortunately, these big bones are not too expensive. A catty of big bones only costs six Wen. Yan Ruxue bought a total of ten catties of big bones.

In addition to the big bones, Yan Ruxue also bought some seasonings, sauces, and some seasoned pickles. As for things like pottery bowls, Yan Ruxue is not going to buy them. The price of those things is too expensive for them , she is ready to rent!
"Auntie, I'm the new tenant of Mrs. Qin's house. I don't know if you have any extra table and chairs in your house. I want to rent them!"

"Grandma, I'm the new tenant of Mrs. Qin's house. I don't know if you have any extra table and chairs in your house. I want to rent them!"

One morning, Yan Ruxue ran all over the two alleys, and rented a hundred sets of bowls and chopsticks, four tables, and a few benches. The rent of chairs, bowls, chopsticks and earthen stove pots is 130 Wen in total for one day.

Including big bones and seasonings, the total cost of the stall was 120 Wen. Yan Ruxue priced wontons at [-] Wen per bowl. That is to say, they had to sell at least [-] five bowls of wontons today to sell their capital.

Realizing this, Yan Chen was very worried. At first he thought that the capital was not too big, but after everything was done, he realized that five hundred Wen was actually quite a lot. After all, his Shuxiu wanted to left out.

Yan Ruxue was busy with these things, and Yan Chen was not idle either. He took care of the firewood and water at Mrs. Qin's house, and he also looked at the broth that had been hanging on the pot.

The siblings have been busy for a whole day, and they have almost prepared all the things that should be prepared. All the tables, chairs and benches will be delivered to them by the leased house the next day, which saves them a lot of trouble.

On the morning of the third day, because of the time stipulated by Mrs. Qin, the siblings got up at Yinshi. The soup, noodles, stuffing, and stalls were proceeding in an orderly manner. People also brought out the tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks, and Yan Ruxue also paid the money for the tables, chairs and benches according to the price agreed yesterday.

Although it is close to the wealthy area, the people in these two alleys are not rich people. They are still willing to exchange the idle things at home for money!
At three o'clock in the morning, the sky was already bright, Yan Chen used two bamboo poles to prop up the flag, and the two of them stood in front of the cooking stove and got ready.

Quiet, very quiet, the reason is very simple, no one noticed here at all!

"Sister, do we have to shout twice?" Yan Chen said embarrassingly.

"Eh..." Yan Ruxue's cheeks were flushed, she was the one who suggested setting up a stall, but she was used to reading in the study since she was a child, and standing on the street to sell business, she has never done such a thing!
"Ahem..." Yan Chen cleared his throat and was about to shout, but the reddened ears revealed that he was actually a little embarrassed.

"Wait!" Yan Ruxue stopped Yan Chen, Yan Chen is going to be an official in the future, it's better not to let him get involved in this kind of throwing and showing his face. "Let me shout!"

Yan Ruxue's heart thumped, the left and right had already set up stalls here, and they were so shameless, they still cared about what these two lips were doing!Grit your teeth and stomp your feet! "Yes, you can eat wontons for free! As long as you can match the pair that our sister and brother made, we will invite you to eat wontons. Is there any student who wants to try it?"

Although it was a holiday, there were still people in the college. Yan Ruxue's voice was loud and clear, and it was early in the morning. It can be said that many people in the college were overwhelmed by Yan Ruxue's voice. wake up.

It's not to say how penetrating Yan Ruxue's voice is, but if one hears it, then two people will know about it, and if two people know about it, then they will bring four people along, so, The whole academy was a sensation, just as Yan Ruxue estimated, the scholars were not only noble, but also arrogant, talking such big words at the gate of their academy, wouldn't it be bullying that there is no one in their academy!

Therefore, these students who are usually close to Zheye stood up one after another, and they vowed that today they must make this pair of brothers and sisters who don't care about life and death pay for death!

After Yan Ruxue yelled for a long time, most of the pedestrians on the road looked sideways, but no one really came to eat a bowl. Just like Yan Chen was worried, there were only civilians in the two alleys here, and the civilians would not go out if they had nothing to do. Those who spend money on food, even if it is just a bowl of wonton for four Wen.

"Sister, are we going to lose money!" Yan Chen was slightly worried.

Yan Ruxue frowned slightly, thought for a while, shook her head and said. "No! According to our observations in the past two days, there are still some students and masters in the academy. Therefore, if we set up a stall here and shout such slogans, it is impossible that there will be no reaction. There is only one possibility in the current situation. It's just that they're just getting up and getting dressed!"

With Yan Ruxue's words, Yan Chen felt a little more at ease, and wiped the clean tabletop with the rag in his hand.
