Chapter 310
"If we open a store like this in the village, other grocery stores will probably have no business!"
Hu Hansheng took a tour and laughed.
This newly renovated store is really much better than other stores in the village. It is not only clean and tidy, but also has a wide range of products with prices clearly marked. It has almost everything that other grocery stores in the village can buy.
In this case, don't everyone have to come to this store to consume?
Yu Chengqing smiled:
"It's hard to say whether other grocery stores will be affected, but Lin Xikun and Yun Jie's grocery stores are probably doomed.
The two stores are dozens of meters apart, and the things they sell are similar. This one is so new, how can they compare?"
"Hehe, I just want to beat them!" Shen Wentao smiled, this is the effect he wants!
Last time, Lin Xiaoqiang and his friends wanted to compare whose store was better, so let's compare!
"When are you going to open? I'll bring two firecrackers over when the time comes." Wu Yinglong said.
Speaking of the opening time, everyone looked at Shen Fei.
Shen Fei thought for a moment and said:
"Why not open it tomorrow? I'll prepare something tonight, burn incense and pray. If it's appropriate, then open it tomorrow. By the way, think of an opening promotion, such as a lottery or something."
Ah?
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Burning incense and asking before opening is almost a tradition here. They have to pray before any major event.
But what does this lottery mean?
"Dad, do we have to hold a promotion right after we open the store?" Shen Erya asked in confusion.
So far, she has not officially run a store, and she doesn't know much about these things. No other grocery store in the village has held any promotions.
Hearing this, Shen Fei smiled and said:
"We just opened the store to attract people to buy. Only when people come to our store to consume, they will know that our store is good."
"I will think about this later. I will tell you when I think about it."
Shen Erya, Shen Wenbo, Shen Wentao and others nodded.
Seeing that Erya and others had finished the work in the store, Shen Fei did not stay and invited everyone to go home for dinner.
Everyone walked out of the store and was about to close the door of the store when Lin Xikun and Lin Xiaoqiang walked by pushing a wheelbarrow.
There were a lot of eggs on their wheelbarrows, which looked like there should be hundreds of them.
Seeing Shen Fei and others looking over, Lin Xikun asked with a fake smile:
"Boss Shen, when will the new store open?"
"In one or two days, I haven't picked a good day yet." Shen Fei answered casually.
Lin Xikun smiled and said, "It seems that there are no auspicious days recently. You have to choose a good day."
"Thank you for your concern." Shen Fei said casually, and did not continue to waste time with Lin Xikun. After closing the store, he rode a tricycle and took everyone home.
When they got home, Wu Qiujin and the others had finished most of the dishes. Plates of fresh seafood were placed on two tables, one high and one low.
In addition to these seafood, there were also two large plates of red meat.
Mengmeng looked at it and was very happy, "Lychee meat, the lychee meat made by mom is delicious!"
"Not only lychee meat, but also the fish ball soup you like to eat. Mom hasn't made it for a long time. Mengmeng, come and taste it first. See if it's as delicious as before?"
Wu Qiujin smiled and called Mengmeng to try the food.
Hearing this, Mengmeng happily pulled Niuniu and Xiaoliu to the kitchen. How could she forget her two sisters for such a good thing as tasting food?
In the kitchen, after the three little ones tried the fish balls, they all gave a thumbs up.
"Good, delicious!"
"Mom is great! Delicious!"
"Auntie made fish balls, delicious!"
They had indeed eaten a lot of seafood at home, but Shen Fei had never made fish balls for them. It was past noon now, and the three little ones were a little hungry. Eating the fish balls that had just come out of the pot, they really felt that they were delicious!
Hearing the words of the three little ones, Wu Qiujin's two big eyes smiled into two crescents, very happy.
"If you like it, you can eat more."
"Niuniu, take this bowl to Erniu, Sanniu, Siniu and Wuniu first."
"Xiaoliu, take some to your Xiaolong and Huzi brothers to try."
Wu Qiujin has always been more careful in doing things. Adults don't have to rush and can wait for the meal to start, but for the children, it's better to serve them some to satisfy their cravings first.
The children were all delighted when they ate the fish balls Wu Qiujin had prepared for them.
After the children had eaten the fish balls, about ten minutes later, the lunch was finally ready.
The seafood that has been caught is basically steamed and then poured with a blanched sauce.
In addition to those seafood, there are also sweet lychee meat, fish ball soup, and pot-side paste. These three dishes are also very popular with children.
Especially lychee meat, which tastes sweet and children love it.
The adults are more knowledgeable and most of them still catch orchid crabs, lobsters, sea red groupers and other fresh seafood to show off.
"How is it? Is this meal good?"
Seeing Shen Fei also ran to the children's table halfway to take care of the little guys eating seafood, Wu Qiujin asked him.
Shen Fei smiled and said, "It's not worse than mine."
Fresh seafood just caught from the sea really doesn't need to be overcooked. The original taste of the ingredients when steamed is very delicious.
If Shen Fei were to cook, he would also choose to steam most of them.
"Haha, you are too modest. It's not like I haven't eaten your dishes before. There is still some gap between us." Wu Qiujin said with a smile.
For lunch, she really used all her previous skills in killing fish and cutting fish balls. Apart from other things, it was quite laborious to make the fish balls by hand, and she chopped them for a long time.
Fortunately, the result was good. The children liked it very much, and the adults also expressed their approval.
Shen Fei smiled and said, "Almost. If I were to make it, I would also choose steaming it mostly."
As he said that, he peeled a nine-segment shrimp and put it in Xiaoliu's bowl. After Xiaoliu, he peeled another one and put it in Niuniu's bowl, and then Mengmeng.
In the second half of lunch, Shen Fei and Wu Qiujin were basically busy at the children's table, and all the children sitting at this table were full of happy smiles.
Because Wu Qiujin not only greeted the three little ones to eat, but also took care of their other children.
Shen Fei saw that Wu Qiujin was too busy, and he would peel seafood together and share it with the children, so that the children were very happy and enjoyed eating.
After everyone finished lunch, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon.
Shen Yong and Lin Cuihong came to Shen Fei together to pick up their eldest sister Shen Su.
Shen Fei nodded and told Wu Qiujin to take the three little ones to wash and take a nap later.
He drove a tricycle to take Shen Yong and Lin Cuihong to the county town to pick up Shen Su.
On the way, Shen Fei drove the car and asked Shen Yong and others in the back car loudly:
"Has the eldest sister been in contact with you all these years?"
"No contact. But the eldest sister and her three children have been in contact in the past two or three years, and they often send money.
Your sister-in-law heard that the eldest sister's three children have been living better and better in the past two years, so she went to ask them."
Shen Yong explained.
Often send money to the three children?
Shen Fei nodded and asked, "Do you know what kind of job your elder sister does now? Has she remarried?"
"I don't know what kind of job she does. I heard that she remarried and gave birth to a son."
Shen Yong didn't know much about Shen Su's situation. He only heard a little information from Lin Cuihong and a brief conversation on the phone in the morning. There was nothing else.
