Chapter 2218: Chapter 2218: The Top Scorer Is Really Useful
It was only two days after the horseback parade, and the new top scorer was the talk of the town.
When Manager Yun spoke, the onlookers at the door, originally just curious, were suddenly stunned, eyes wide open, "Is this shop run by the new top scorer?"
"The top scorer who achieved six consecutive top ranks?"
"What’s being sold inside, what the top scorer usually eats and uses?"
Manager Yun, accompanied by two staff members, said with a smile, "Yes, that’s right, it’s Top Scholar Meng who achieved six top ranks."
"Of course, you might not know, but what do you think our top scorer ate when he entered the examination hall? This, Instant Noodles."
Someone questioned, "Really? What kind of noodles are Instant Noodles? I’ve never heard of it, is it expensive?"
"Not expensive." A staff member immediately stepped forward, "If you want to know what kind of noodles these are, come in, I’ll cook a noodle cake for you to try, and I guarantee your taste buds will be amazed. Moreover, these noodles can be eaten directly, no problem as a snack."
With the manager and staff’s introductions, along with the lure of the top scorer, many townspeople soon began to arrive one after another.
They were taken aback when they saw the melon seeds and sunflower oil upon entering.
They were familiar with melon seeds, as the Passion Fruit Shop had been selling them for a few years now. Although not cheap, they were affordable.
As for sunflower oil, it was easy to introduce.
"Our sunflower oil is supplied to the nobility in the palace, and only we at Lu’s have it. The top scorer uses it for cooking, otherwise, why do you think he’s so smart? While I can’t guarantee it, I suspect it has something to do with this oil."
Standing at the stairs, Shu Yu thought, "..." Could your suspicions have some basis?
She couldn’t help but glance at the people on the second floor, "You’re such a useful tool."
Meng Yunzheng laughingly asked, "Do you still need me to go down?"
"For now, it seems not necessary."
Manager Yun’s promotion was indeed effective. After Meng Yunzheng’s parade, he had people spread the word across the streets. The ones coming now were still locals, but eventually, people from other places should come too.
Just as Shu Yu was pondering this, Ying Xi came over to say, "Miss, Madam Yao has arrived."
Shu Yu immediately went out to meet them, "Aunt, Sister-in-law, please come in."
"Congratulations on your grand opening." Madam Yao presented a gift box and entered with Ms. Kang.
Upon entering, they heard two staff members eloquently discussing Meng Yunzheng’s... evolution into a top scorer, and both showed a moment of surprise on their faces.
Shu Yu touched her nose, "Let’s go to the backyard for tea, we’ll leave them to entertain here."
Madam Yao chuckled, not saying much.
Just after Shu Yu led the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to the backyard, three or four carriages suddenly stopped outside.
Ying Xi had specially observed and then whispered, "I seem to have seen that Miss Wu Ling who used to speak ill of you, also Miss Xue Yun who reminded you, and the lady from the cosmetic shop opposite. All these people are here."
But none of them came in, as if they stopped outside just to see them make a fool of themselves.
Shu Yu glanced at them, and since they didn’t get off, she pretended not to notice.
Who knew that before long, a few more carriages arrived. Futai Street was broad, but with so many people and carriages, it couldn’t handle it.
Very soon, several young ladies got off the carriages and walked over directly.
