Chapter 08 Ramen Opening
At this moment, a young woman came back at the door with a five or six-year-old boy.
As soon as she got home, the young woman moved her nose and shouted: What is your husband cooking? It smells so good.
I looked up and found that Wang Xiaoming was there, so I smiled at Wang Xiaoming and said hello: Xiaoming is here too.
This young woman is Brother Zhang's wife. A family of three lives here. Her son is only five years old and is still in kindergarten. His appetite has been bad these days and he doesn't like to eat the food in the kindergarten. She took her son back to eat at her home at noon.
.
The five-year-old son also moved his nose, pulled his mother's hand, and said: Mom, I want to eat too.
Wang Xiaoming immediately took the initiative and said: Xiaoye, be good, uncle, go and cook you a bowl of ramen right away.
Okay, thank you, uncle. Xiaoye said immediately.
This kid is really troubling you. Sister-in-law Zhang didn’t take care of her son, so she could only smile at Wang Xiaoming and said.
It's okay, I'll be fine soon.
After Wang Xiaoming left, Brother Zhang took the initiative and said: Wang Xiaoming is having trouble finding a job. He then thought of selling ramen, which is said to be an ancestral craft. You should have seen it just now. He even bought a small cart to eat.
downstairs.
Oh, the car downstairs just now was bought by Xiao Ming, so I asked who parked the car here. By the way, how does it taste?
Brother Zhang said mysteriously: Haha, you will know after you eat it yourself.
Not long after, Wang Xiaoming came over again carrying two bowls of ramen. As he walked through the aisle, Xiao Li, who was opposite, just opened the door and saw Wang Xiaoming carrying ramen. Xiao Li was stunned for a moment, and when he moved his nose, he couldn't help but said: "What is Xiaoming doing today that tastes delicious?"
Yes, it smells really good.
Wang Xiaoming smiled and said: "How do you like the ramen you cooked today? Do you want to try my craftsmanship?"
"Hey, are there more?" Xiao Li said with a smile.
Yes, just wait, it will come soon.
After saying hello, Wang Xiaoming arrived at Brother Zhang's house with two bowls of ramen. Sister Zhang quickly took the ramen over and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Ming. Well, it smells really good."
Mom, I want to eat, I want to eat.
Xiaoye looked at Wang Xiaoming again and said sensibly: Thank you, uncle.
Be good. Wang Xiaoming said with a smile.
The older one and the younger one lowered their heads and ate the ramen. As soon as they started eating, they had the same reaction as Brother Zhang. They also felt that it was extremely delicious. Sister Zhang raised her thumbs and praised it repeatedly.
Wang Xiaoming smiled with satisfaction and said: "You guys eat slowly. Xiao Li, who is across from me, also wants to try the taste. I'll get another bowl."
You're busy, don't worry about us.
Wang Xiaoming went back to say hello to Xiao Li, took another big bowl from Xiao Li, then went back to make a new bowl of ramen and brought it over.
Xiao Li ate the ramen and was full of praise. Wang Xiaoming took the opportunity to promote his own ramen.
Only then did Xiao Li know that Wang Xiaoming was going to sell ramen, but when he thought about the taste of Wang Xiaoming's ramen, it was no longer strange. With just this taste, it was impossible for the business to be popular.
Wang Xiaoming thought about it at this time. Anyway, he had already eaten ramen for two families, and he didn't care about adding more noodles. It could be regarded as promoting his business.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoming said goodbye to Xiao Li, moved all the utensils to the snack cart, and then started shouting downstairs.
Dear brothers and sisters, please promote ramen and try it for free.
Hey, Xiao Ming, are you selling ramen?
Yes, Uncle Qian, you can try my skills and leave comments.
OK, bring me a bowl.
Okay, it'll be ready soon.
Wang Xiaoming stretched out his hand and twisted off a small handful of dough, about two or two pounds, and pulled the dough in his hand and put it in the air, and then pulled and put it again. After a few times, a handful of evenly-thick ramen noodles was ready.
When Uncle Qian saw this scene, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up: What a good boy, you have a lot of skills.
Wang Xiaoming smiled sheepishly.
The ramen was cooked quickly. Wang Xiaoming asked: Uncle Qian, do you want to take it away or eat it here?
Uncle Qian glanced around. There was no table or chairs, so how could he eat?
Uncle Qian said: Pack it for me, I will go back and eat slowly.
Okay. Wang Xiaoming packed the ramen in a bag and handed it over.
Uncle Qian took the bag and stretched out his hand to give the money. Wang Xiaoming quickly said: No, no, Uncle Qian, today is a free trial, no money is required. If you eat well, you can take care of my business tomorrow.
Uncle Qian smiled and collected the money and said, "Okay, I will take care of your business tomorrow."
When the neighbors saw that Uncle Qian could actually taste ramen for free, the other neighbors were immediately eager to try it. Many people also walked by and said hello to Wang Xiaoming.
Wang Xiaoming greeted everyone one by one. Regardless of whether he knew anyone or not, as long as he wanted to eat ramen, he would give him a bowl of ramen for free.
Although it seems like a free gift, the cost is actually not much. A bowl of ramen, two taels of dough, plus the rest of the cost, costs less than a dollar.
In a bowl of noodles, the most expensive items are the condiments and seasonings, and in this regard, Wang Xiaoming cut corners, so the cost is relatively low.
But because of the existence of Ramen Mate, even if you cut corners, the taste is still excellent.
Wang Xiaoming had a busy meal and sent out fifty-seven bowls of ramen. There were not many neighbors around, and many people were not at home at this time. The fifty-seven bowls of ramen were basically covered.
This tastes good.
I really can’t tell that Xiao Ming still has this skill.
Most people couldn't name Wang Xiaoming at all and had no impression of him, but after eating this bowl of ramen, they remembered Wang Xiaoming. The ramen tasted so delicious that they couldn't even think about it.
I can't even remember it.
Hey, since when did a ramen shop sell ramen here? A middle-aged aunt was walking by the alley and suddenly smelled the fragrance. She couldn't help but walk in. When she saw Wang Xiaoming's food truck, she was surprised.
The middle-aged aunt glanced at the snack cart. The five-yuan bowl of ramen was really good. I didn't know if it tasted good, but it smelled very good.
She happened to be a little hungry at this time, so she came over to buy ramen.
Wang Xiaoming quickly prepared a bowl of ramen and asked: Sister, let me pack it up for you to take away.
I see, don’t you have a bowl here? I’ll eat here. The aunt pointed at the instant bowl and said.
Wang Xiaoming said hello, packed the ramen in an instant bowl, and handed it over.
Instant bowls and chopsticks have all been purchased by Gaofeng and can be used at any time.
There is no table, so you can only eat with your hands.
The middle-aged aunt didn't mind this and started eating the ramen on the spot.
Hey, young man, your ramen tastes good. The middle-aged aunt said in surprise.
Wang Xiaoming said with a smile: To be honest, this is an ancestral craft with a secret recipe, so my ramen is different from other ramen.
Telling a little lie and carrying the ancestral name will be more beneficial to the sales of ramen. Wang Xiaoming is not stupid in this regard.
It's passed down from ancestors. No wonder, I think your craftsmanship is different from other people's. The middle-aged aunt said with sudden realization.
After a while, after finishing the bowl of ramen, the middle-aged woman wiped her mouth and handed over ten dollars.
Wang Xiaoming quickly said: Sister, today is a free trial, just eat well and come back tomorrow to take care of my business.
Ah, the middle-aged aunt who offered free samples said in surprise that this was the first time that a vendor offered free samples.
After confirming that Wang Xiaoming really didn't charge for money, the middle-aged aunt thought about it, but still handed over the money and said: Well, your ramen is really delicious. I don't want to make my lunch, so you can give it to me.
I packed two bowls of ramen, and it cost me ten yuan. You have to keep the money. I packed it up and took it away when I was full. I'm sorry if you don't charge me.
What the aunt said was reasonable. Wang Xiaoming thought about it and took the money, but then found five yuan and went back. He said with a smile: Let's do this, aunt, let's make a compromise. I'll take the money, but I
Only charge half, the cost price, haha, that’s it.
Before the aunt could say anything, Wang Xiaoming got busy, prepared two large bowls of ramen for the aunt, and packed them up to take away.
Young man, because of your character and taste, your business will definitely be prosperous in the future. The aunt smiled and took the ramen.
By the way, will you still sell here in the future?
I haven’t decided yet, but it shouldn’t be too far from here. I’ll live upstairs here. It’s too far and it’s inconvenient. Wang Xiaoming said honestly.
Oh, that’s right. The middle-aged aunt was thoughtful.
Okay, you're busy, I'll leave first.
After the aunt left, Wang Xiaoming couldn't help but take out the ten-dollar piece of paper and pen again, and looked at it again and again.
Chapter completed!
