Liu Zi scratched his head in embarrassment and waved his hand: "No, no, I came early in the morning and took care of the matter. Besides, you bought so many things yesterday, giving you some firewood is nothing. Wood shavings are good for starting fires.”

Liuzi's family is a carpenter, and it can be seen that the firewood is just scrap wood, and the wood shavings are really useful for starting fires.

"Then I won't be polite to you and I'll treat you to lunch." Wen Yao is a grateful person. If others are sincere to them, they will naturally return the favor.

Wen Yao said this, which made Liu Zi feel a little embarrassed. How could he be suspected of cheating, although he also wanted to try it.

"Then I won't be polite to you anymore. Uncle Wen, let me help you."

Wen Yao found a small bench and put it under the big tree next to him. He told Da Tou to sit there and not run around, and then went to help.

When Wenjun came back with the pot, the stove was already burning, and the large pot he brought from home was placed on the stove to cook soup.

Their soup is provided for free. If you eat fried rice, you will get a bowl of soup, three eggs, a handful of cabbage, and some oil, which is already very good.

It was already approaching noon, and more and more people were coming and going. Many people would look at them sideways, but they would just look at them and leave.

Wen Xiuyi wore an apron around his waist and a scarf on his head. He was standing in front of the stove with a spatula, waiting for guests to come.

As a result, there was no one.

Liuzi smiled awkwardly. After all, he had just said yesterday that there were a lot of people here, but on this opening day, there was no one there.

"Uncle Wen, maybe the time has not come yet."

Wen Xiuyi was normal and comforted him: "It's okay. It's just the beginning. It's always like this."

Wen Yao rolled his eyes and said, "Dad, Datou must be hungry. Brother Six and we have been busy all morning. Why don't you give us a bowl of rice to eat?"

"Okay." Wen Xiuyi rolled up his sleeves and the spatula in his hand started to move.

There was no vegetable oil at this time. A small spoonful of lard was put into the pot, and the aroma wafted far away.

Wen Xiuyi's hands and feet were deft and his movements were smooth and fluid, which really attracted the attention of many people, who stopped to see curiously what he was going to do.

Wen Yao saw everyone's reaction in his eyes and raised the corner of his mouth. This is the mentality of this person. If a familiar place changes its business, it will arouse people's curiosity. At this time, something needs to be done to let everyone know that they are Whatever you do, people will naturally try it.

When the fragrant egg-fried rice came out of the pot and Wen Xiuyi sprinkled in the chopped green onions at the end, someone even said oh, as if the extra handful of chopped green onions made the bowl of rice perfect.

Wen Yao, Wen Jun, and his six sons each shared a bowl.

Wen Yao simply moved a stool and sat in front of the stall to eat. While eating, he exaggeratedly told the guy next to him that it was delicious and that the fried rice cooked by his father was also delicious.

It's a pity that Da Tou has no time to pay attention to her and just wants to work.

Liuzi was even more exaggerated, shouting while eating: "Uncle Wen, this fried rice of yours is so delicious, huh huh huh, so hot, delicious, so delicious."

Compared to them, Wen Jun was much more restrained. He just sat there and ate quietly with a bowl in hand. However, judging from the speed at which he ate, everyone knew that the rice was very delicious.

"Boss, what are you selling?" Finally, the first customer came to the door. Judging from the appearance, he should be a nearby vendor.

Wen Xiuyi wiped his hands on his apron, opened the cloth used to cover the side dishes, and introduced: "This guest, ours is called fried rice. You see, our rice is slowly steamed over a slow fire. , they are steamed on the same day and never overnight, and these dishes are all fresh, do you want to try them?"

When Liu Zi on the side saw the person asking the question, he didn't even bother to swallow the food in his mouth and said, "Brother Liu, it's really delicious. Try it."

Seeing him like this, the vendor surnamed Liu also swallowed his saliva. He was indeed hungry after coming out early in the morning, so he asked: "How do you sell it?"

"Vegetarian fried rice costs [-] cents, egg fried rice costs [-] cents, add meat and it costs [-] cents, and soup is free."

The vendor hesitated slightly: "It's so expensive."

Liuzi spoke again: "Brother Liu, it's not expensive anymore. You see, the rice here is real, and Uncle Wen's craftsmanship is very good."

After Liuzi said this, the vendor was really greedy, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Then let's have a bowl of fried rice with eggs." He took out twelve coins and handed it to Wen Xiuyi.

Wen Xiuyi pointed to a clay pot next to the stove: "Just put the money here, a bowl of egg fried rice, please wait a moment."

This was the first business deal, and Wen Xiuyi took it seriously and even performed some tricks, which made the crowd who were watching the excitement burst into applause.

When a bowl of egg fried rice came out of the pot, everyone watching the excitement watched eagerly as the vendor surnamed Liu took his first bite.

The vendor himself was very nervous, but when the rice grains entered his mouth, the aroma hit his taste buds.

"It's delicious!" With the rice still in his mouth, he could only say these two words vaguely and then ate hard.

Wen Xiuyi smiled proudly. He was not good at other things, but his skill in fried rice was absolutely unparalleled.

This was the first person to eat fried rice, and it was confirmed that it was delicious. Besides, the price was indeed not expensive, so more and more people began to eat it.

Those who were economical ordered a bowl of vegetarian fried rice, those who were willing to spare ordered a bowl of fried rice with eggs, and some wanted to try the one with meat.

Before noon, there was a fried rice stall here selling delicious fried rice, and word gradually spread around the pier.

Wen Yao and Wen Jun were busy wiping the table, collecting the dishes, and washing dishes. Even Da Tou was left to Liu Zi to take care of. Liu Zi didn't know where he got a wooden toy, and Da Tou squatted by the tree and started playing.

As soon as noon arrived, workers who were curious and heard about the fried rice here came in twos and threes.

One afternoon, all the large buckets of rice they prepared were sold out, and later I heard that the people who came over didn't even get to eat.

The family of three never expected that business would be so good on the first day.

"I'm really sorry. It's my first day at the stall. I haven't prepared much food. I'll have some tomorrow. I'll definitely be able to eat tomorrow. I'm sorry, but I'll save the next one for you."

Wen Xiuyi smiled and sent away the guests who had not eaten, then happily rubbed his hands and hung up the closing sign, and ran back to see today's harvest with his children.

"Yao Yao, how are you?" Wen Xiuyi looked at the jar containing the money, his eyes were shining, and he completely ignored the pain in his arms.

Wen Yao didn't count the copper coins for half a jar, but based on the amount of ingredients they prepared today, if they steamed fifteen kilograms of rice, one hundred servings, even if they cooked it with the cheapest vegetarian method, they would earn about a thousand copper coins, and even more Besides, there are many people who eat fried rice with eggs and rice with meat.

Wen Yao stretched out a finger and said excitedly: "At least this number."

She really wants to find a place to count her money now.
