“The popsicles are gone already? We wanted some, too.”
“Yeah, 1 waited in line. How can you run out so soon?”
“The factory is so big, yet they made so little.”
The seller was stunned, not expecting to sell a few hundred so quickly. He said, “Don’t worry, everyone. We’re making more in the factory. I’ll ask my manager if we have more to sell.”
Lin Ning entered the factory and found the manager, “Sir, I’ve run out of popsicles. People are still waiting outside to buy more. What do we do?”
Su Jiu was the manager and was not surprised that the popsicles sold so quickly. After all, it was summer. It was just as popular as fruit juice when Su Binglan introduced it.
“It’s okay,” Su Jiu said, “We have a box of popsicles we haven’t sealed yet. You can sell that batch at the stall.’
Fortunately, Su Binglan had produced more popsicles a few days ago. She would then arrange for someone to sell them at the factory entrance. Then, the employees could immediately sell what they made.
Su Binglan would launch her popsicle business everywhere once the factory was on the right track. However, the situation showed that the factory struggled to meet the demand.
Su Jiu looked at the factory entrance and saw many people queuing up to buy popsicles. Meanwhile, the people who received their popsicles ate on the sidelines, praising them, “Wow, these are so tasty and refreshing.”
Their intoxicated expressions showed how successful the popsicles were. The people eating the popsicles were not employees, but they thought they were enjoyable.
Even Su Jiu was stunned when she tasted the popsicle for the first time. She felt her whole body cool down after eating it. Fortunately, Su Binglan!s factory was massive, and she hired many workers.
Lin Ning nodded and smiled. “All right, I’ll go outside and tell the customers.” He was a little nervous when Su Jiu put him in charge of selling popsicles at the factory entrance. The former feared he would fail at his task. Even so, he only needed to stand at the factory entrance. So many people came to ask about the popsicles.
Lin Ning answered everyone’s questions and then quickly sold all his popsicles. He was ecstatic and happy to sell popsicles. No wonder people liked to sell things in Su Teng Village.
The villagers would do well if they sold their goods at reasonable prices and ensured quality.
Many customers stood at the stall and looked into the factory to see if there were more popsicles. After all, they wanted to relieve the heat they felt.
Fortunately, there was a parasol outside the ice cream factory. Everyone felt better standing below it. It was cooler in the village because many families planted trees near their houses.
People had grown accustomed to enjoying the shade under their trees during summer. There was also a nice breeze.
Everyone rushed over when Lin Ning came out. “So? Do you have any more popsicles?”
“Yeah, are there more? If there are, I’ll buy some.”
Initially, they only wanted to buy one popsicle to try. However, they changed their mind and planned to buy a few more for their family members.
“Don’t worry, everyone!” Lin Ning announced, “We have more popsicles.
They’ll be ready soon!”
The ice cream factory was massive, and Su Binglan hired many people. Therefore, the factory quickly produced popsicles. Soon, they completed the second batch of popsicles.
Everyone lined up and bought the popsicles in an orderly manner. Soon, Lin Ning ran out again, and more people appeared to buy popsicles. Business was booming.
The factory employees grew even more eager to work when they saw how much the customers enjoyed the popsicles. Su Binglan said they would receive higher bonuses if the business went well.
Therefore, the employees wanted to work faster. Everyone worked hard when they thought about the bonuses.
Soon, everyone nearby knew about the ice cream factory. People would line up at the stall every day. Popsicles were in short supply, not to mention the cold noodles.
Su Binglan opened the cold noodle factory besieged the fruit pancake and Mala hotpot restaurant. She then opened a cold noodle shop on the street outside the staff dormitory.
The street was much livelier than before. When Su Teng Market opened, the street resembled a marketplace. On weekends, people would go there to eat snacks. The mala hotpot restaurant was still popular, even during summer.
Old Madam Yang sold her pancake shop and moved to the capital with Yang Xiaoxun. The latter was a celebrity. She had earned enough to buy a small house in the capital to live with her grandmother.
In the future, Yang Xiaoxun would become Chen Chengkangs wife. He even promised to care for Old Madam Yang. Therefore, the older woman could retire.
Old Madam Yang had a distant relative who was her niece. The older woman
discovered that her niece lived in the neighboring village. After buying pancakes to watch the play, the young lady talked to Old Madam Yang and realized the older woman was her relative.
When Old Madam Yang planned to sell her shop, she thought of her niece’s family and gave it to her. The young woman was grateful to Old Madam Yang and ran the shop well. Business was still booming.
A medicinal porridge shop that sold wontons next door. The porridge had herbs inside and was good for the body. The shop belonged to Su Wenxiu, and Zi Die helped to run it.
Business was booming. Although most did not have time to eat breakfast, they would wake up earlier to eat porridge with fried dough sticks at the shop. The shop only opened in the morning and closed at noon because it specialized in breakfast.
Su Binglan opened a cold noodle shop and hired people to manage it. The employees sold the cold noodles at half price on opening day. People quickly discovered how good the cold noodles were. Therefore, business was excellent from the start.
Although the shop had two floors, it was full of people. There was an endless stream of customers, so some had to wait outside.
“I’m so full after eating a pancake and a bowl of cold noodles.”
“At least we have an appetite. I can’t even eat anything at home. Cold noodles are suitable to have during summer..”
