Chapter 8

Lin Yan chose the location of the stall on Xishou Street, where you can see it as soon as you enter.

He observed it when he came to purchase last time. This location is relatively open and has good air circulation, which will be convenient for him to cook barbecue in the future.

The shop next to it happened to be the melon and fruit shop where he bought lemons.

As soon as they opened the small stall, the owner of the melon and fruit shop came up curiously, "Little brother, are you selling sauce today?"

Lin Yan nodded with a smile, then he personally wrapped a piece of seafood meat with a lotus leaf, poured some hot and sour sauce on it and handed it to the boss.

"Try it."

The boss didn't expect him to be so generous, so he was taken aback for a moment before taking it, and praised: "Young brother is so generous."

People who can open a shop on Xishou Street are naturally not short of money, so the boss is used to eating white rice and various meats on weekdays, and doesn't like these fishy seafood at all.

Even taking a bite feels like torture to the tongue.

But he had a crush on Lin Yan, so he stared at the fragrant seafood for a while, then turned his back as naturally as possible.

The things that the little brother has worked so hard to make, he can't disappoint others.

But as soon as he put it in his mouth, he was shocked. Is this still the seafood he usually eats?

Sour, sweet and spicy, not only does the taste not conflict, but also has endless aftertaste, so amazing?

The point is that the fishy smell he hates the most is gone. The boss smacked his lips, so can seafood be so delicious?

When he finished his recollection and turned back, Lin Yan's stall had already been set up.

On the left side of the wooden shelf is a large jar of steamed seafood, which is still steaming because of the hot weather, and on the right side are two large bowls containing lemon chutney and garlic chili sauce respectively.

To prevent mosquitoes from approaching, Lin Yan put a plate on each of the two bowls.

A neat stack of lotus leaves is placed at the front of the wooden frame, which is green and green, making people feel clean and comfortable just looking at it.

There are also two large jars of sauce, right at Lin Yan's hand.

The boss pointed curiously at the bowl containing garlic chili sauce, "Brother, what kind of sauce is this, is it as delicious as this bowl of green one?"

Lin Yan gave him another sample.

The boss was stunned. He often eats garlic and chili, but he didn't expect these two condiments to blend so well. It's so delicious.

"Little brother, how do you sell this sauce?"

The boss couldn't wait any longer. The two boys in his family jumped up and down every day for dinner, neither eating this nor that, so he bought more and went back to coax them.

Lin Yan said with a smile: "You take the bowl at home to serve it, a spoonful of seven cents."

This price is much lower than the boss expected. He has a poisonous mouth. Once he tastes it, he knows that there are a lot of things in it. Just one kind of sugar is worth a lot of money.

And the spoon in Lin Yan's hand is not small.

The boss thought that it was Lin Yan's first time to do business, so he didn't dare to ask for a price, so he kindly reminded him, "Brother, is your price a bit lower?"

Lin Yan smiled gratefully, "To tell you the truth, I'm just starting to sell the sauce, and I will add some other things in the future. The lower price is for the sake of the future."

His sauce is actually not that deep. If someone is interested, ask him about the ingredients he bought, and he can mix it up a few times to get a similar taste. So Lin Yan thought about it carefully and set the price at seven cents.a spoonful.

No more, no less, in the future he will sell barbecue, and customers will not feel bad if they bring a sauce.

The boss gave a thumbs up, "My little brother has such a long-term vision at such a young age, he is promising."

Lin Yan was a little embarrassed by his praise.

"Give me three spoonfuls each, no, five spoonfuls."

The owner's shop was right next to him, and he brought two large bowls in a short while. Lin Yan put on homemade gloves, gave him five spoonfuls each, and gave him a mustard sauce.

The boss stared at the small plate of yellow paste, "What is this?"

"It's called mustard. It can be eaten with seafood and meat. It tastes a bit strong."

After the sauce just now, the boss has fully trusted Lin Yan, and he just took it and left.

My brother can't go wrong with the recommendation.

Father Lin and Sister Lin looked at Lin Yan in the wrong way.

Just now, the material on the boss's body is very expensive at first glance. Facing this kind of rich people, they will unconsciously be a head shorter, and their speech will be awkward.

But Lin Yan was generous, as if he and the other party were friends who had known each other for many years.

Sister Lin tentatively said, "Little brother, I think you are not the same as before."

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, and then sighed, "Sister-in-law, you also know that Dad gave me that kind of dirty drug to make me marry a scholar.Is he playing around?"

Father Lin said before that he couldn't marry a scholar if he couldn't read, and he didn't know where to get a crumpled book to force Lin Yan to read, so Mrs. Lin wouldn't be too suspicious if he spoke with a bit of style.

Maybe Brother Yan has the talent to read and write.

And the changes in Lin Yan's body were enough for him to ignore this point.

Father Lin turned his back and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Lin Yan knew that he didn't want to add psychological pressure to him, so he simply pretended not to see it.

"Father, sister-in-law, are you hungry? We just sold it for seventy coins. You should eat some too."

After being interrupted by him like this, Father Lin and Sister Lin also remembered the matter of selling Shi Shao just now.

This is seventy coins, and they may not be able to save so much money for a few months on weekdays. Brother Lin and the others only work for ten coins a day, so they have earned seventy coins all at once.

This is so exhilarating.

Father Lin shook his head, "No, let's eat it when we go back. Let's keep these sauces for sale."

Mrs. Lin thought the same way.

Lin Yan smiled helplessly. They came out early in the morning and only drank a little porridge for breakfast, so they were very hungry now.

He took ten Wen to Sister Lin and persuaded, "Sister-in-law, we don't know how long it will be sold today, we need to save energy, you can help me buy some sesame seed cakes, not many, just ten Wen."

Mrs. Lin still refused to pick it up. Like Father Lin, he was used to hard work.When used to cast a net to catch seafood at the beach, only drank some water at the end of the day.

Lin Yan had no choice but to look at Father Lin, and said coquettishly, "Father, I'm so hungry."

Father Lin doesn't feel sorry for himself, but for his own children. Lin Yan is already like this, so he can only compromise.

"Buy a few more."

Aunt Lin gritted his teeth and bought three. He thought that Lin Yan was the hardest. If he ate two and gave Sister Lin one, he would stop eating.

But after buying it, Lin Yan couldn't help but stuffed one into his and Mrs. Lin's hands, and let them eat it coquettishly and coaxingly.

While they were eating sesame seed cakes, the owner of the melon and fruit shop also arrived home.

Seeing him coming in with two bowls of something they hadn't seen before, the two sons rushed over immediately and said loudly, "Father, what is this?"

The boss put two bowls full of sauces on the table, then turned around and ran back to the shop to take back the small dish of mustard that Lin Yan sent.

The eldest son was extremely curious, "Father, what is this?"

As said that, wanted to dip finger in it and taste it.

The boss slapped his hand away, "Go, go, that's not how you eat."

Then he couldn't wait to start yelling, "Steam a pot of seafood quickly."

The boss's wife was cooking inside, when she heard this, she came out with a surprised face, "What's the matter today, don't you think seafood smells fishy, so you don't even want to look at it?"

The boss proudly pointed at the sauce in front of him, "I got something good today, I'll let you try it later, I'm sure you'll praise me after eating it."

The two sons snorted disdainfully. They had their mouths dangling, and they went out of the restaurant when they had nothing to do. What good things haven't they eaten?

Where can such a bowl of sauce be delicious?

The boss's wife thought so too, but she couldn't hold back the boss's urging, so a big pot of seafood came out of the oven in a short while.

"It's too much," the wife said disgusted, "It's a waste if you can't finish it in a while."

With a big wave of his hand, the boss made a whole bowl for himself, and then took a small spoon to dig out five spoons into it, mixed it, and took a big mouthful.

Eyes narrowed in satisfaction.

The two sons were dumbfounded. This, is it so delicious?

The two glanced at each other, then imitated their father and made a small bowl for themselves.

One bite, sour, sweet, spicy, fresh, layers of flavors exploded in the mouth, and the eyes of both of them lit up after eating.

The boss's wife couldn't help it when she saw it. In the end, the whole family was sweating profusely after eating, and they enjoyed it.

It turns out that sweet and sour can be combined so well.

There is still some leftovers in a large pot of seafood, but the sauce has been used up.

The family had no choice but to focus on the small dish of mustard in the corner.

"My little brother said that this thing is called mustard, and the taste is a bit strong, you try it?"

The youngest son was the most courageous. Without thinking about it, he dug a big lump with a spoon and mixed it, and then took a big bite like before.

Then the next moment, an extremely pungent and pungent smell came straight up, and he slammed his forehead twice in discomfort.

The other three were terrified by him.

"what happened?"

"Is this thing poisonous?"

Although the boss panicked, he believed in Lin Yan, "No."

Fortunately, the youngest son recovered quickly, and even yelled happily, "Excellent!"

The other three: "???"

The youngest son hurriedly urged: "Try it quickly, dip less."

The boss was very hesitant, after all, the younger son's expression just now looked really painful and scary.

But seeing that the youngest son has already started to take a second bite...

He, his wife, and his eldest son glanced at each other, and they simply let go and ate.

What is it like to be both painful and enjoyable?

And then they figured it out pretty quickly.

The four of them dipped in wasabi again, ate all the remaining seafood, and each burped in satisfaction after eating.

So much fun!

On Lin Yan's side, the second guest also arrived.

He is the shopkeeper of the biscuit shop diagonally opposite.

Lin Yan set up a stall here, so they are neighbors. Just now, Lin Yan took care of his family's business, so the shopkeeper naturally asked Lin Yan what he was selling.

Reciprocity.

It's just that the original reciprocity turned into two big bowls of sauce, and Lin Yan still gave him a small portion of yellow mustard.

The author has something to say:

Just a reminder, Yan Yan already has cubs in his belly, hehe~
