Chapter 86 Rumors
After hesitating for a moment, someone said, "Okay, give me one, and one carrot one, and one chive and shrimp one too."
"You have custard buns now? I'll have one too."
"Give me one too, um, give me two soy milks, your soy milk is quite small, one isn't enough."
Chen Huile's smile never stopped.
The proprietress, Zhao Dan, went into the kitchen and took out the freshly steamed meat buns.
She has sharp eyes and spotted several people walking out from the direction of the residential area at a glance.
These people were all around 20 or 30 years old, and they all looked like they were at work, and they were in a hurry.
These people usually go to Chen Yuan's breakfast shop to buy breakfast, why are they out today?
However, Zhao Dan quickly understood.
Homemade steamed buns are definitely the best!
Since the last time they secretly learned from each other using binoculars, although they didn't quite grasp the essence, they've been making dumplings by imitation for so many years now, and they've mastered everything they learn.
After some adjustments, the taste of their steamed buns has indeed improved by more than one level.
Most importantly, it uses fragrance.
As soon as the steamed buns were in their hands, the office workers smelled them. The aroma of the buns and the faint scent of bamboo entered their nostrils at the same time, and the fragrance was about 70-80% similar to the steamed buns sold by Chen Yuan.
"It smells so good! Did you also switch to a bamboo steamer? It really has a bamboo aroma, and the smell is quite strong."
Zhao Dan chuckled twice, then said.
"That's right. We just replaced our steamer with the best bamboo, so the aroma is much stronger than theirs. Their bamboo steamer has been used for so long, so even if it has some fragrance, it's not very strong."
"I knew it! This tastes really good today. Give me two more lamb ones, I'll take them to work."
"Give me two too, I want the pork ones."
The couple were really busy for a while.
At this moment, two female office workers stormed into the steamed bun shop, looking quite angry.
Zhao Dan greeted her warmly.
As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face; the smile lines on her face were all piled up together.
"Oh dear, why are you so angry? Quick, quick, I have some freshly steamed meat buns, they're still warm, you should all try them!"
The two female office workers hadn't originally planned to buy steamed buns, but they stopped when they smelled the hot and fragrant aroma.
One of the long-haired female office workers slung her backpack over her shoulder and said angrily.
"Okay, give me four meat buns and a cup of soy milk, all to go!"
"I'd also like a cup of soy milk, two beef ones, and two carrot ones."
"Hurry up, we're in a rush!"
"Okay! Almost done!"
Chen Hui deftly picked up steamed buns with his hands and feet, while Zhao Dan kept talking. She asked...
"What's wrong? Why are you so angry? Is that breakfast shop so popular that it drove you all to come here?"
The mere mention of this made the two office workers furious.
"Don't even mention it! It's indescribable, it's as chaotic as a vegetable market!"
The long-haired office worker rolled her eyes; she had been holding back a lot of anger, and now she was letting it all out.
"A group of elderly people were grabbing the porridge with their thermos flasks, and students were pushing and cutting in line. It was complete chaos, and the owner didn't even try to control it!"
The female office worker next to him took the steamed bun Chen Hui handed him, and continued to speak without mincing words.
"That's not all. I think the service attitude is problematic. When business is good, they get arrogant and act like we have to beg them to get a table!"
The two were full of resentment because they hadn't eaten, and they exaggerated their words.
Zhao Dan, unaware of the details, had her eyes light up instantly upon hearing this.
This is a golden opportunity!
While making soy milk, she lowered her voice and leaned closer, feigning mystery.
"It's not that I'm trying to cause trouble, but our shop isn't as popular as other shops, so our voices carry little weight, and besides, no one would believe us anyway."
"Actually, think about it yourselves, how amazing can his porridge be? I think he must have added some kind of technology and ruthless techniques to it."
"Huh?" The people around were taken aback.
"Otherwise what?" Zhao Dan said, making it sound very convincing.
"Think about it, it's just a bowl of ordinary millet porridge. You think it can make you sleep well? Then all the hospitals in the world should just shut down, and there'd be no need for sleeping pills!"
"And those steamed buns were so delicious, you kept eating them one after another. Didn't you suspect there was something added to them? Otherwise, how could they be so addictive?"
"And that soy milk, it makes your skin better after drinking it. I've heard that some hormones have this effect."
Zhao Dan's words were like a stone falling into water, splashing up a spray of water.
The office workers followed her train of thought and realized something was amiss.
"Yes, sis, you're absolutely right."
"Yes, yes, I've become a bit addicted to their steamed buns lately. I have to eat two every morning, otherwise I feel uncomfortable all over."
"So that's where the problem lies. How come I never thought of that before? Now that you mention it, there really is a problem."
Upon hearing that her goal had been achieved, Zhao Dan quickly began promoting her family's steamed buns.
She picked one up, broke it open, and put it in her mouth in front of everyone.
"My family's steamed buns are the real deal. We eat them ourselves. When did you guys see that young man eating his own family's steamed buns?"
"We use the real ingredients and traditional techniques, unlike him, young people only do those fancy things."
At this moment, the long-haired female office worker suddenly seemed to remember something and said something.
"Hey? You know what, one time I was late and saw that guy buying pancakes from the pancake stall in front of his house... Doesn't he eat what he makes himself?"
Why didn't you say so sooner?
"I didn't expect that! So that's how it is!"
Everyone seemed to have discovered some new continent.
Seeing that she had achieved her goal, Zhao Dan immediately turned to promoting her own shop.
"Besides, his home isn't in good condition. It's unhygienic to set up a table and eat on the street. And who will be responsible if someone gets hurt?"
"Look how different our place is. Our shop is so clean and bright. You can sit down and eat right away when you come in."
"Okay, I'll come here tomorrow."
"I'm never going to squeeze in there again, what a rubbish place!"
"Yes, yes, it's definitely not good food. I'm not going to eat it."
Zhao Dan reassured her at the opportune moment.
"You must come tomorrow! Our house is definitely better than theirs!"
After seeing the group of customers off,
Zhao Dan returned to the kitchen and saw her husband busy at work. She said in a very proud tone.
"See? No matter how delicious the food is, it's not as good as the words."
"Does that kid think he can do whatever he wants just because he has some skills?"
"They're nowhere near as good as us; they'll fall into our hands sooner or later!"
