Chapter 598: Opened!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation     Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

This carriage wasn’t made by Xue Yifu, as he was only one person and couldn’t do so much wood work. This carriage was bought from the town’s carpenter.

With a carriage like this, if it were to rain, people could still sit in the carriage and not get wet. The weather has been inconsistent these past few days.

The family’s shop was going to open tomorrow. They were going to unveil the signboard and set off firecrackers to garner attention. It was a happy event. The more family members there, the better. Liu Guixia and Li Hehua were unable to go because they had to take care of Yu Hongyan’s confinement period and Xue Shi. However, they asked Jiang Yue and Xue Yan to go as well. They also told them not to worry about the potato starch, and that they could still find time to take care of it.

The next day, Jiang Yue, Xue Yan, Xue Sifu, Xue Dafu, Xue Erfu, and Xue Yifu all came to the town.

Xue Da also wanted to visit the shop in town, so he came in a carriage.

In addition to Xue Dagui, Li Qingshu’s mother, and He Jinshan’s mother, who worked for the shop, there were quite a few other people present.

Knowing that their family was opening today, Doctor Shen happened to be free and was on the same street as them, so he brought a few of the staff over. The plaque had already been hung up, but there was a red cloth tied with flowers on it, which had not been uncovered.

There were firecrackers wrapped around a bamboo pole.

There was still a canopy outside. The wind blew the canopy and it fluttered. This way, the shop was more conspicuous. Even if one did not approach, they could find their way through the canopy from a distance.

When noon arrived, they immediately lit the firecrackers.

Xue Da and Xue Dafu were laughing so hard that their eyes couldn’t be seen. They tore off the red cloth, revealing the signboard of the shop.

“Good, good, good!” Xue Dagui was the first to lead the applause. He was especially exaggerated in his cheers and didn’t feel embarra.s.sed at all.

Xue Erfu and the others also laughed and clapped.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other and slowly applauded.

“Welcome, welcome. Please, come in.” Xue Sifu greeted the customers enthusiastically, and he quickly ushered in a few old customers who had already arrived.

Ever since he bought this shop, even though it was under repair and had not opened for business, they still promoted it well. Every day when their stall sold rice noodles, as long as someone came to their stall, they would always promote the shop that would be opening soon. They would even tell them the exact location of the shop.

He had also said that although he would sell it in the shop, the price would remain the same.

Normally, one only needed to pay the price to set up a stall, but the shop was either bought with one’s own money or rented from someone else. The cost was very high, so naturally, the same things sold in the shop would be more expensive than the stall, right? However, because his family had the workshop, the expenses were greatly reduced. In order to attract customers, Xue Sifu naturally wouldn’t raise the price and maintained the original price.

Today, there were only a few people who wanted to eat rice noodles and were close to the shop.

As soon as the shop was moved here, many of the old customers stayed away. They would only come here if they really wanted to eat it as it was now out of their way.

However, they also sold dried rice noodles for takeaway. The brand had been spread out long ago, and everyone in town knew about it. If you wanted to eat it but felt that it was too far away, you could buy some dried rice noodles once in a while and cook it at home instead. After all, in the entire town, his family was the only one that had rice noodles. Xue Sifu had already thought about it.

Doctor Shen and the others were warmly welcomed by Xue Dafu and Xue Da.

They had wanted to invite Doctor Shen to a private room upstairs, but Doctor Shen said that there was no need. The lobby on the first floor was good enough. Thus, Doctor Shen and his staff also sat down with the others..
