Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes suddenly turned cold. She gave her a look and the woman shut up.
Then she took the child and quickly took a step back.
“Hmph, let’s go!” She said and led the child away.
Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes went dark.
It’s the Lin family again…
After the woman left, Lin Xiaoyue didn’t continue to work.
She sat down on the bench and waited for Li Xiao.
…..
Soon, Li Xiao came back with the ox-cart.
The staff member helped carry the water tank down, after which Li Xiao took it to the back.
When Li Xiao came back out, Lin Xiaoyue asked him to sit down and asked him to write again.
Lin Xiaoyue found that Li Xiao’s handwriting was actually very nice.
How should she put it? He had a different style than Xiao Qing.
One was elegant, and the other was fierce.
Of course she preferred Li Xiao’s fierce style.
“Write ‘Grand Opening Offer’ on this piece of paper,” Lin Xiaoyue put a large piece of red paper in front of Li Xiao.
Li Xiao took a look at Lin Xiaoyue and did as he was told.
Lin Xiaoyue was very satisfied.
After admiring it for a while, she put the red paper aside.
Then she took out a second piece of red paper of the same size.
“In a smaller font, write the details of the offer.”
“Write ‘Today’s Special Offer’.”
Then, Lin Xiaoyue pointed to some s.p.a.ce below.
“Write ‘buy three get one free’.”
“And below it ‘buy five get two free’.”
Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue hesitantly.
Lin Xiaoyue smiled.
“Do it. The cost of a bowl of cold cakes is less than 1 wen, so we won’t make a loss!” “Tomorrow, on the first day of opening, I won’t set up stall in the West Market.” “Not only Aunt w.a.n.g and Aunt Juanzi, but also my mother and I will come to help. Let’s see how many cold cakes can be sold in one day.”
“Hmm.”
After Li Xiao finished writing, Lin Xiaoyue pointed to the blank s.p.a.ce at the bottom.
“Here, the words should be bigger. Write ‘Only for today’.”
Li Xiao continued.
“Okay, take it and put it on the display board. When we open tomorrow, put the display board outside the store.” Lin Xiaoyue stood up as she spoke.
She asked Uncle Sun to make two display boards last time. They could be folded and stacked, like the ones in the 21st century that one often sees by the side of the road. Putting it at the door can attract more people’s attention.
Then, the two went to make billboards.
It’s finally noon.
The two waited for Aunt w.a.n.g to arrive.
The three of them sold the cold cakes together, and then closed the shop and locked the door and went back to Dashi Village.
Ever since Lin Xiaoyue learned that w.a.n.g Shuanzi and Li Laishun’s business was going well, and that they had sold 40 buckets of cold cakes in the morning, she couldn’t wait to get home.
After getting on the main road, Lin Xiaoyue immediately asked Li Xiao to speed up. “There will be an event at the eatery tomorrow, and there must be a lot of people.” “Shuanzi and Lai Shun are selling so well, the cold cakes that Erya and Aunt Jiang made during the day are definitely not enough for tomorrow morning. I’m afraid we will have to stay up all night to make cold cakes.” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“Don’t worry, Erya and 1 are here to help you!” Aunt w.a.n.g said.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at Aunt w.a.n.g with a smile.
“No, there are only two stoves in my house, so having more people wouldn’t speed things up anyway.”
“You should rest early tonight. It’s opening day tomorrow, and it will definitely be very busy.”
Aunt w.a.n.g thought about it and what she said made sense..
