Chapter 350: The Clam Window
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Ye Lulu also had a new idea. When business in the shop was booming, she would use the money to open a new shop. It would be bigger and better and she could just give it to the Guan family. In that case, she and the Guan family would each have a shop.
Hence, Ye Lulu suggested that Mother Rong and the rest continue to help in the shop.
However, Mother Rong was a little hesitant and could not bear to part with that stall. “I sell congee quite well too. Many people come specially to buy it every day. There are also many people who brought bamboo tubes with them to buy it. If I don’t set up the stall, what will happen to them in the future?”
Ye Lulu thought about this question seriously and said, “Then move the congee stall to the shop.”
Mother Rong was speechless.
Ye Lulu said firmly, “We can open a small window beside the door of the shop. It’s called a clam window. It will specialize in selling congee. The neighboring residents of Yuan City can bring their own bowls to buy congee. The original customers can also bring bamboo tubes over to buy congee. They can line up outside the window. Mother, you can make porridge in the shop. We can set up a special place for that.”
“Clam window?” Mother Rong asked in surprise.
Ye Lulu explained, “To put it bluntly, it’s a small window for take-outs. It’s just that the word clam can set up a sense of mystery for the small window, so it’s called a clam window. It means that you can obtain treasures from this small window. Mother, you can specially sell the things from the stall here in the future.”
“Once this clam window is set up, apart from the original congee, you can also sell glutinous rice chicken and other things. If you have the spare energy, you can even sell some steamed buns at night or in the morning. If you have other small snacks that are convenient to carry around, you can sell them through this window.”
“Good idea!” Mother Rong understood and exclaimed, “Lulu, you’re so smart. How can you come up with so many good ideas? Doesn’t that mean that you can combine the stall with the shop and do both businesses?”
The best thing was that the shop was by the docks. The original customers did not need to go to another place. They could walk a few steps and arrive at the shop. It was equivalent to not moving her stall.
Ye Lulu suddenly thought of a small window. This was just a trick of modern take-out. There was nothing wrong with setting it up to earn more money.
After settling the business, everyone was very energetic, especially about the next day. As expected, the whole family went to the shop to help.
After the new shop opened, there was no such thing as good business only on the first day.
The next few days were filled with customers and business was good.
The shop seemed to have gone on track just like that. Those people, who were originally watching this new shop with doubt, revealed surprised reactions. They did not expect this new shop to open and be so popular.
Ye Lulu’s new shop also brought a reaction to Yuan City. At the very least, many people in Yuan City would laugh at that unique new shop by the river. If they wanted to go to a restaurant, they could try it together.
Amidst the commotion, there was a small alley in Yuan City that was still lively.
The commoners who lived here were mostly old people who had lived here for many years. The things in their houses were placed in a mess. The neighbors were also very familiar with each other, and many of them sat in front of the door to pass time.
Only one family was in a mess.
“You debt collectors, I really can’t wait for the two of you to die early so that you don’t have to come and collect debts from me. What a sin!”
“Damn child, you’re not even willing to eat white flour steamed buns, right? Then go out and eat sand! You’re so hard to feed.. You’re all as sinful as that father of yours. He’s not even at home, but threw the child to me to raise!”
