Translator: 549690339

Ni Yang blanched a handful of noodles in fish soup and served them into ten cups, sprinkled them with cilantro, chopped green onion, and minced garlic, before pouring the final touch of soup over them. Thus, ten petite servings of Sour Fish Noodle Soup were completed.

Though small, the servings had a full spectrum of colors, scents, and flavors.

Ni Yang held a tray with ten servings of noodles, and started soliciting passersby loudly, Come, come, step right up, free noodles for tasting, its all free!

Upon hearing the word free, a middle-aged woman immediately paused and asked, Are you really giving these away for free?

Ni Yang nodded and handed her a cup, Yes maam, please judge if it tastes good or not. This cup of noodles doesnt cost you a penny. If you like it, you can sit down and have a bowl of it at only three cents per bowl. If you dont like it, you can simply leave without any obligation. After all, 1 am a young girl standing before so many people. Do you think I could swindle you?

The middle-aged woman suspiciously took a sip from the cup while multiple people had already gathered around to watch.

In this era, promotional strategies were scarce, much more so the free food samples, thus attracting numerous onlookers. However, these onlookers only watched the first to act middle-aged woman, without accepting the cupped noodles from Ni Yang, fearing it to be a scam.

After finishing the soup, the middle-aged woman wore an incredibly baffled expression.

The surrounding crowd was filled with curiosity.

With an amiable grin, Ni Yang asked, So maam, how would you rate the taste?

The woman took a bite of noodles without answering, carefully chewing and then looked at Ni Yang incredulously, This is absolutely delicious! Missy, how did you prepare this fish soup?

The noodles, imbued with the tangy, spicy, and savory flavor of the pickled cabbage fish soup, were incredibly appetizing and left people craving for the next bite. There was no fishy taste at all. If it werent for the fish fillet floating on the soup, who could believe these were fish soup noodles? ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom

Exactly. Ni Yang nodded, Maam, would you like a bowl?

Yes, yes! The middle-aged woman replied excitedly and picked a place to sit down, Missy, hurry up and bring me a bowl.

The middle-aged woman was originally going to have breakfast. She had been eating here for three or four years, but had never tasted such delicious noodles! She couldnt wait to have a bowl right away.

Sure maam, please wait for a moment. Ni Yang acknowledged the request.

Having observed the reaction of the middle-aged woman, the onlookers started clamoring for a free cup of noodles themselves.

They were simply too curious, were the noodles indeed that delicious?

Ni Yang rapidly handed out the remaining nine cups of noodles to the others.

However, many others had not gotten a share. She apologized, Im sorry, I have got no free samples left for today. If you would like to eat, its three cents per large bowl.

Others who had tasted the cup noodles were cheered and exclaimed, Missy, bring me a bowl!

Me too!

I have never tasted such delicious noodles.

Similar comments increased, intriguing those who had yet to taste the free sample.

I also want a bowl.

In no time, all three tables were full, leaving many others standing while eating their noodles.

This young girl was probably too worried about losing face, so she was boasting.

If it had all been sold, wouldnt she have been over the moon with joy? How could she be so calm and composed?

Ni Yang continued, Im not joking with you. They are really all sold out. Im just packing my things to go home.-

The shop owner thought Ni Yang was just bluffing, and he laughed and said, Since theyve all sold out, you should go home now. Dont worry your family. In my opinion, its better for girls to study more. He believed that a well-read woman would make a good match and that would be a satisfactory life.

Well, 111 be going then, Uncle Liu. Goodbye. After putting everything away, Ni Yang said goodbye to the shop owner.

Shop owner Liu watched Ni Yangs figure retreating into the distance and shook his head helplessly. The kids these days have too much vanity. Not selling the noodles is not a big deal, but pretending to have sold out all

Did she think he was too old to know better?

Instead of returning home directly, Ni Yang rode her bicycle to the Agricultural Market where she bought eight fish. She also bought some fishing gear, along with some fruits and vegetables, adding to the list, kelp and pigs feet.

By the time she reached home, it was a little past eleven in the morning.

Yangyang is back! How was your business? How many did you sell? Ni Cuaihua asked excitedly upon seeing Ni Yangs return. Clearly, she had been waiting anxiously at the door for a long time.

Ni Yang handed over the fruits and vegetables she bought to Ni Cuihua, laughing, Mom, with your daughter being so capable, how could the business not be good? Of course, they were all sold.

All sold out? Ni Cuihua opened her mouth wide in excitement and disbelief, Yangyang, youre not just saying that to make me feel better, are you?

If they had agreed on a price of three cents per bowl the night before, how much money would they have earned if everything was sold?

I didnt lie to you mom. They were all really sold out.. Ni Yang unloaded the pots from the back of her bicycle, lifted the lid, and said with a smile, Look, its completely empty!
