After Picking Up the Lucky Girl, the Whole Village Became Prosperous Chapter 203

 The carriage drove directly into the backyard of the shop.

Xiaojie jumped down from the carriage and ran to **** Xiaohei.

 Xiao Hei has not been very free since he came to the county town. He has been tied to a pillar in the backyard with a rope. He is almost depressed. When he saw his little master, he barked excitedly.

 “Xiaojie!”

Yingbao came out of the kitchen and waved to him: "Come and eat chestnut cake."

 I just made a pot in the morning, it is hot, crispy and delicious.

Jiang Jie ran into the kitchen and saw his second cousin wrapping chestnut cakes. A large flat-bottomed iron pot was placed on the stove. She put the wrapped chestnut cakes into the pan one by one.

Next to it is a bamboo plaque of freshly baked chestnut cake, which is exuding a rich aroma.

Jiang Jie picked up a piece and took a bite.

It's really delicious, much better than the teacher's chestnut cake.

Yingbao was making chestnut cakes while asking her brother about his studies. She was very happy to know that Mr. Wu often praised him.

 My younger brother will definitely be admitted to a high official position.

Outside the store, just as Jiang Cheng put ten boxes of packaged chestnut cakes on the shelves, someone walked into the store.

 “Brother, how do you sell your specialty products?”

 Jiang Cheng: "What do you want to buy? There is a price on each item."

 The visitor was wearing a brocade robe and a turban with a bright silk flower on his head. He looked like a wealthy person.

“Hey, the prices of your products are not low. If I buy more, can it be cheaper?” The flower-wearing man had a thick layer of powder on his face and painted his eyebrows, making it impossible to tell his true appearance.

Jiang Cheng looked him over and said, "How much do you want to buy, sir? We won't give a discount if it's less than thirty boxes."

The flower-wearing man laughed, suddenly took out a folding fan from his waist and shook it, "I can't buy so many for the time being, so give me two boxes of pastries first."

 Speaking, he took out copper coins from his wallet to pay the bill, picked up two boxes of chestnut cakes and left.

 Jiang Cheng collected the money and continued to sit at the counter and draw product labels.

 He learned painting skills from that student, and now he is much faster. He can draw more than a dozen pictures an hour.

Unknowingly, at noon, Jiang Quanlai went to the backyard to eat with his eldest brother, and saw a man wearing a brocade robe walking into the shop.

Jiang Cheng recognized this person as the customer who bought two boxes of chestnut cakes before.

“Hey, I'm busy.” The man asked with a smile: “Your pastries are good, please give me four more boxes.”

Jiang Cheng had no doubt that he was there and gave him four boxes.

This man did not leave after paying the money, but said to Jiang Cheng: "Can you help me deliver these four boxes of pastries to Feihe Tower? I am the owner of Feihe Tower."

Jiang Quan knew about Feihe Tower and said quickly: "I'll go and deliver it." The eldest brother hadn't eaten yet, so he went to deliver it himself.

Jiang Cheng nodded, tied the four boxes of pastries with thin hemp ropes, and handed them to his younger brother, telling him to ask clearly before delivering the goods. After all, they didn't know the owner of Feihe Tower, so they shouldn't pay for it if the goods were delivered to the wrong person.

 “I know.” Jiang Quan picked up four boxes of snacks and ran away.

Feihe Tower is a large restaurant. It sells wine downstairs and entertains guests upstairs. It is a place frequented by wealthy people.

Jiang Quan ran to the front of the building, and before he even climbed up the steps, he saw a man dressed as a waiter coming down to greet him: "These are the pastries our boss bought, just leave them to me."

Jiang Quan glanced at Feihe Tower and asked, "What's your boss's surname? What does he look like?"

"What do you mean?" The young man glared at him: "Our boss's surname is Lai. Didn't he buy two boxes of pastries from your house this morning? Give them to me quickly, the guests upstairs are still waiting."

Jiang Quan had no choice but to hand him four boxes of cakes, and then watched the young man enter Feihe Tower.

 Back to the shop, the customer was no longer there.

Jiang Cheng asked him: "Is that person really the owner of Feihe Tower?"

"Well, the guy inside said yes." Jiang Quan said, "Brother, you go to eat, I'll come and see the shop." Jiang Cheng nodded and turned to go to the backyard.

Today Erni and Yingbao cooked a lot of dishes and bought braised goose and chicken from outside.

Yingbao also bought a can of boiled juice from somewhere. It was sour, sweet and very delicious.

Jiang Cheng sat down to eat and looked at the chestnut cakes that were still cooking on the stove. He said, "Chestnut cakes are selling well today. One person bought six boxes. He also said that he would come back next time and let's make more. His guests like to eat it.”

 “The guests like to eat?” Ying Bao only felt strange.

Our chestnut cakes in gift boxes are priced very high, and most people will not buy the packaged ones to eat home unless their family is very rich.

Jiang Cheng: "It's the owner of Feihe Tower. He said that his guests are either rich or noble, and ordinary pastries are not suitable for them."

Ying Bao only felt that something was wrong, but could not find anything wrong.

While eating, he suddenly heard Jiang Quan calling from the front: "Yingbao, how many chestnut cakes are there at home? This guest wants fifty boxes."

 Fifty boxes, calculated as four hundred cents per catty, is twenty taels of silver.

 This is not a small amount of money.

Ying Bao counted the chestnut cakes packed in the kitchen and said to her second brother, "There are forty boxes."

Jiang Quan: "Forty boxes are fine. The guests are waiting for them. Let's take them to Feihe Tower for checkout."

 Won't you give cash?

Ying Bao suddenly became alert and ran to the front shop to check.

I saw a man wearing a silk flower on his head waving a folding fan and looking around. He didn't care when he saw a little girl, and said to Jiang Quan: "Hurry up, my guest is waiting."

“Okay, come here.” Jiang Quan sorted out the chestnut cakes in the shop and tied them into piles with hemp rope.

 There are five boxes in one pile, and fifty boxes are estimated to be in ten piles.

Yingbao asked: "Don't guests pay in cash?"

Before Jiang Quan answered, the man glared: "What do you mean? I am the boss of Feihe Tower, but I still owe you a mere twenty taels for this small shop?"

 The more Ying Bao looked at this person, the more something seemed wrong.

 He said he was the owner of Feihe Tower, but apart from being full of fancy words, he couldn't tell that he was the owner.

Moreover, even if I apply a thick layer of white powder, it can't hide the wretched look on my face.

 “Our store does not accept credit.”

Ying Bao said unceremoniously: "If the customer can't pay in cash, just go elsewhere and buy something cheaper."

Jiang Quan was stunned, looking at his little cousin and not knowing what to say.

The man got angry, pointed at Yingbao and cursed: "Where did you come from, you bastard! How dare you be rude to me? Do you still want to do business?"

Ying Bao was not afraid of him at all, "My uncle is from the patrol shop. Do you dare to threaten me?"

Turning to his second cousin, he said: "Go to the patrol shop to find your uncle. He said there is a liar here who wants to defraud us of our money. Humph! I know the owner of Feihe Tower, and he is not someone like you at all!"

Ying Bao's words were so conclusive that the man was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Jiang Quan really walking out of the shop, he suddenly turned around, picked up the corner of his robe and ran away.

 Even if he dropped the folding fan in his hand, he wouldn't even bother to pick it up.

Upon seeing this, Jiang Quan could only come back and ask: "Ying Bao, is this person really a liar?"

"Hmm." Ying Bao had encountered this once in her previous life and was almost deceived. Fortunately, she was vigilant and stingy, so the deceiver failed.

Jiang Quan was puzzled: "Then how did he cheat?"

 I have lost nothing.

Ying Bao rolled her eyes at him and said, "I'll give you a sweet spot first, and then I'll cheat."
