Chapter 90
Beverage shops had just opened and after the business got on the right track, it was getting better and better. It could sell about 1200 drinks a day and when the weather was hot, the business was also particularly good, the highest time reaching 1800 cups.
In only half a month, he made more than ten thousand taels of silver. The high profits made Xiao Jinfeng excited every day.
The drinks in the beverage shop were especially popular with children, and parents who spoiled their children were willing to spend a little money occasionally to buy a cup of juice for their children at home.
“Have you bought the drinks? I want milk flavour,” Xiao Yuerong said to the servant who went to buy drinks.
“I bought it, here they are.”
Zheng Pei’er walked out from the house with a gloomy face.
Xiao Qingyan had already returned to the Academy. On that day, Xiao Jingting’s beverage shop just opened. Xiao Qingyan went to have a look, only to find that the shop was located in a remote location and the space was small. He thought that in a few days, it would close down.
After Xiao Qingyan gave his verdict that Xiao Jingting’s shop would close down sooner or later, he went back to the Academy. At that time, Zheng Pei’er didn’t take Xiao Jingting’s small shop seriously, either.
However, the business of the beverage shop just went on and Zheng Pei’er had someone keep an eye on the shop. From the daily flow of customers, she estimated that the beverage shop’s daily income was around fifteen hundred taels.
One thousand and five hundred taels! How much money would be earned in a month?! Zheng Pei’er felt jealous just by thinking about it.
Zheng Peier looked at Xiao Yuerong. Her own son had become a loyal fan of the beverage shop so how could the business of the beverage shop be bad?
Seeing Zheng Pei’er, Xiao Yuerong, who was holding the cold drink, become evasive.
When the servant saw Zheng Pei’er, hurriedly called, “Hello, madam.”
Zheng Pei’er looked at the flustered servant and said, “Go and buy ten different drinks.” Zheng Pei’er waved her hand and gave the man ten taels of silver. The servant was stunned for a moment but quickly took the silver and ran away in a panic.
Xiao Yuerong said with some guilt, “Mother, so you also wanted to have a drink!”
Knowing that Xiao Jingting opened a cold drink shop, Xiao Yuerong immediately scoffed, but before long, many children in the family drank it. Xiao Yuerong could not resist the temptation and sent someone to buy him a drink. After that, it got out of hand.
“Drinking, drinking, drinking will kill you.” Zheng Pei’er thought to herself: What’s so special about the drinks in Xiao Jingting’s shop? She wanted to find out.
……
In Xiao Jingting’s beverage shop.
“A total of twenty-two silver taels,” Xiao Xiaodong said in a serious manner.
An exquisite-looking girl took out the silver and couldn’t help pinching Xiao Xiaodong’s face, “Little brother, you look really cute.”
Xiao Xiaodong squinted at the girl and said in a serious manner, “Sister, even if you praise me for being cute, I won’t give you a discount.”
The young girl laughed and said, “Little brother, you’re really cute.”
“Sister, your drinks are ready,” Xiao Xiaofan said.
The young girl smiled like a flower, “Little brother, you’re cute too.”
Xiao Xiaofan said in a serious manner, “Elder sister, you are blocking the people behind you, get out of the way!”
The young lady glared at Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong, taking the drinks and leaving.
“A total of forty-eight taels of silver.” Xiao Xiaodong said to a young master who stood behind the young girl.
Xiao Xiaofan filled a basket full of drinks and held it up to the man, “Guest, your drink.”
“You have a lot of strength, little boy,” The man said.
Xiao Xiaofan nodded and said, “Well, I’m gifted. I’m so strong because I drank many drinks. Dear guest, if you drink like me, you will also become stronger.”
Xiao Xiaodong, “…” Obviously eating a lot only helped you grow muscles, not your brain.
“Is that so? It turns out the drink also has this effect. I really need to drink more.” The man was very interested.
When the shop first started, because of the lack of manpower, Xiao Xiaodong and Xiao Xiaofan both helped serve the customers. Unexpectedly, Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong became the living advertisement in the shop and many people liked these two children very much.
In his spare time, Xiao Jinfeng looked at Xiao Xiaodong and Xiao Xiaofan and said, “Xiaodong, Xiaofan, you are very popular!”
Xiao Xiaodong looked away, and his cheeks immediately turned hot. But Xiao Xiaofan, who was praised only showed a big smile.
……
Xiao Jingting looked at Xiao Xiaofan and Xiao Xiaodong in front of the counter from a distance. His face burning, he was really shameless to use such a small child.
“Dad.” Seeing Xiao Jingting, Xiao Xiaofan was full of excitement as he reached his hands towards Xiao Jingting.
Xiao Jinfeng followed Xiao Xiaofan’s gaze and indeed saw Xiao Jingting.
Xiao Jinfeng handed over the matter in hand to the shopkeeper next to him and walked to welcome Xiao Jingting.
“What are you doing here, third brother?” Xiao Jinfeng asked.
“I brought wine,” Xiao Jingting said.
“Fruit wine?” Xiao Jinfeng asked.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, “Yes! The taste of the wine is very light and sweet, so it shouldn’t be to your taste. However, don’t worry, Xu Muan already sent you your share.”
Xiao Jinfeng patted Xiao Jingting’s shoulder and said with a smile, “Younger brother, you are wonderful.”
Xiao Jingting rubbed Xiao Xiaodong’s head and said, “Son, I heard that you are fast and accurate in calculating! There is no mistake in checking money, it’s very impressive!”
Xiao Xiaodong was flattered, but he still maintained a cool expression on his face as he said, “That’s nothing.”
Xiao Xiaofan looked at Xiao Jingting and couldn’t wait anymore, “What about me? What about me? Daddy, you only praised my brother but not me.”
“You! I heard you had a good appetite and ate a lot, and almost wet your pants.”
Xiao Xiaofan flushed with anxiety as he said, “I didn’t wet my pants. I haven’t peed in my pants for a long time.”
Xiao Jingting, “…”
After introducing a variety of different drinks, the beverage shop introduced fruit wine priced at five hundred taels of silver per bottle. The price of fruit wine was a bit high, however since the beverage shop had made a name for itself, people still bought it to have a taste.
The fruit wine was made with premium ingredients and only six bottles were sold per day, which made demand quickly excess supply.
