Chapter 136 New Location Unlocked
Saturday, Primavera Plaza.
"What's going on outside? What kind of business has moved in with such a big fanfare?"
"Didn't you see it a few days ago? It looked like a snack stand, the one that was really popular on the Internet."
"Is this true? We have it in the square too? Can we eat it after get off work?"
"I don't know. I'll go down and take a look later."
While the merchants and shop assistants inside the square were discussing, one corner of the square looked particularly lively.
The crowd around took out their cell phones from time to time and took pictures of people not far away.
Xia Anan came here with Mo Xuemei today. In a sense, unlocking a new location is also the opening of a new store.
The flow of people in Chunhua Square is obviously greater than that in Xizhou Square. Before they even started setting up their stalls, people came to watch the fun.
"An An, I'm really a little nervous."
Mo Xuemei had heard that Xia Anan was going to set up a stall in the square here, but she didn't expect that she would come alone.
"Why are you so nervous? You are the most powerful among all of them. I would not feel safe if someone else came. Besides, I have been here with you for the past few days. You should do what you usually do today!"
Xia Anan patted her shoulder and helped her put things on the stall in order.
Soon, the big refrigerator was delivered and Xia Anan directed the workers to move it to the house at the back.
It is filled with scallion pancake crusts. Considering that business will be busy these two days, we won’t make the crusts on the spot.
This small room was arranged for her by Zhao Yunjiao. Land in this kind of place is very expensive. The annual rent for a small shop is six figures, and those with better locations are even seven figures.
Xia Anan was embarrassed to ask for it at first, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it would be much more convenient to have a small storefront to store things.
Plus, Zhao Yunjiao was so enthusiastic, so she accepted it.
Xia Anan took out the mints from her pocket and stuffed two into Mo Xuemei's mouth. "I'll start the live broadcast in a while and help you. Just focus on making pancakes. It's okay. Let's just treat it normally."
Among all the people who set up stalls with her, Xia Anan undoubtedly values Mo Xuemei the most.
She was relaxed and at ease when setting up the stall. She had good skills, ambition and ideas.
There are no stalls at Chunhua Plaza, which is some distance away from Xizhou Plaza. There are still many people who have never eaten scallion pancakes and Jianbing Guozi, so there is no need to worry about customers.
Once all the ingredients are in place, the live broadcast will officially begin.
"Hello, everyone. We are now at Chunhua Square on Zhongxin Road, selling scallion pancakes..."
-【Is this true? I’m in the square right now.】
- [My sister and I were just discussing whether we should go to Xizhou Square for a walk, and then the scallion pancake seller came? ]
- [Is it just scallion pancakes? Or are there other delicious dishes?]
- [Sister Xia just mentioned scallion pancakes, maybe there are multi-grain pancakes, I don’t know about the rest. ]
-【Report again after further investigation.】
Xia Anan put the live broadcast phone aside and answered the question in the live broadcast room: "Yes, there are only scallion pancakes and multi-grain pancakes here now, and other stall owners will come over later."
"We are packing up the stall now and will start in ten minutes."
"We mainly sell scallion pancakes these past two days. We only have one pot of batter for pancakes, and once it's sold out, it's gone."
While she was interacting with netizens in the live broadcast room, Mo Xuemei had already preheated the iron plate, cleaned it, and placed a few scallion pancakes on it.
These are actions she has done countless times. It is no exaggeration to say that she can do them even with her eyes closed.
After turning it over, beat eggs to make the crust crispy, brush it with secret sauce, cut it into small pieces with a spatula, and place it on a plate aside.
Xia Anan put the plate on the small table that had been prepared long ago and took out a bamboo stick. "This is scallion pancake. Everyone, try it first. Buy it if it tastes good!"
Hearing this, one of the onlookers walked up.
As soon as one did it, a second one followed. The rest of the people reacted and rushed forward.
Xia Anan said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, the tasting will be available all day and everyone can taste it."
The security personnel of the square who had been communicated with in advance also helped to maintain order and formed two teams.
If you think the food tastes good after trying it and want to buy one to try, then walk away. If you think it doesn’t suit your taste, you can leave.
-【Ah! Downstairs from me, no, why do I have to work on Saturday?】
- [Can I keep queuing up for tastings?]
-【But aren't these all semi-finished pie crusts? What's the difference between this and buying them online? It seems more expensive to make them on site?】
-【The ones I made myself are really different from the ones sold at food stalls! I think the ones I made at home are not as crispy, and the sauce is really amazing! 】
- [Agree with the above! Last time I took a photo of scallion pancakes, I asked the customer service to give me two more packets of sauce. The noodles were also very delicious! ]
Xia Anan put the price tag aside. It was too late to stick the customized price tag now, but it would not be too late to put it up after the stall opened tomorrow.
The first person who tried the cake strode to the stall before swallowing the cake in his mouth.
"Boss, I want three scallion pancakes, with everything in the normal order!"
"Okay, wait a moment." Looking at his reaction speed, Xia Anan guessed that he must have come prepared.
Mo Xuemei's movements were skillful. She spread the eggs, applied the sauce, added the lettuce and grilled the sausages, and finally packed them in bags. The whole set of movements was smooth and fluid.
As soon as this person handed over his cake, a new cake was placed on the iron plate.
Xia Anan helped pass the packed cake out, "Take it, be careful of the heat, if you want to eat it crispy it's best not to tie the mouth."
"Okay, thank you."
Soon, the people behind also came over and lined up.
"Boss, I want two scallion pancakes!"
"Boss, give me two of these!"
"They don't want multi-grain pancakes, but I do! Give me one!"
Although everyone knows that you can buy only the egg pancake for scallion pancake, but since you’ve queued up, why not buy the deluxe version with extra ingredients?
-【Ah? Why wasn’t it made by Sister Xia herself? I only want to eat what Sister Xia makes.】
- [Think about it, Sister Xia rarely makes cakes now, she has her own small stall. ]
-【Isn't Sister Xia making multi-grain pancakes next door? If you want to eat Sister Xia's pancakes, just buy them. 】
-[If Sister Xia sets up a stall here, then will the cold pot skewers not be set up these two days? 】
-[It’s okay, the cold dishes are back. I just arrived at the snack street and the queues in front of the stalls are full. ]
Xia Anan's job today is to make multi-grain pancakes and help Mo Xuemei by moving the pancake crust, handling eggs, and opening packaging bags.
Seeing that Mo Xuemei was tired, she took over. There were the same number of people in the team half an hour ago, and there were still the same number of people half an hour later. The air was filled with the aroma of scallion pancakes.
Someone in the line in front of the stall asked, "Sister Xia, will you set up a stall at Chunhua Plaza every day in the future? Will the snack street also move here?"
Xia Anan handed the pancake over and replied, "I will help sell scallion pancakes here for the next two nights. I will go back to Xizhou Square in the future. As for the remaining snack stalls, there are not enough people, so don't worry about it for now."
