Looking at his wife's determined face, the barbecue stall owner had no choice but to watch her struggle.
He had no hope for his wife's money from selling buns.

There are indeed many people who buy buns in Huaguoshan every day.
But they are all attracted by the buns sold by the bun stall owner.
Although those people are waiting for buns, not just anyone selling buns can have such a good business.
He has persuaded his wife, but she won't listen. She will not turn back until she hits the wall. He has no choice.
Let his wife try. When she makes a lot of buns and can't sell them at night, she will learn her lesson.
......
At this time, Zhang Mingyuan also added the contact information of the blind date.
After asking the woman if she has any idea about the blind date tomorrow.
The first thing he thought of was that Lin Zhou was selling porridge on the top of Qinhuang Mountain this morning, as his father had said.
In order not to affect his daytime work.
The blind date was held at Qinhuang Mountain, where they would climb together, drink porridge on the top of the mountain, and then go down the mountain at the end, without affecting his work.
What a great thing!
So he made an appointment with the girl to meet at Qinhuang Mountain at six in the morning to climb together.
Hearing his father talking about Lin Zhou all the time, Zhang Mingyuan was now very curious about this person.
Mainly, he wanted to see what kind of person would sell porridge on the top of the mountain at six in the morning. He couldn't imagine it, so he planned to go and see, and he could also bring some porridge back to his father.
This person would not be so disgusted with him because of the buns he didn't eat last week.
On the other hand, the daughter of the CEO of Jiangsheng Company saw the news late at night and was dumbfounded!
Whose blind date invites a girl to climb a mountain at six in the morning!
Is this reasonable?
But she still agreed, mainly because Zhang Mingyuan was a famous young talent in the circle. Although he was not particularly handsome, he was young and capable. The blessing of money made him very charming. He was the candidate for the son-in-law of many CEOs in the circle.
Her father had already made it clear that this blind date was very important and would be beneficial to the cooperation between the two companies. If it was suitable, they would get engaged. If it was not suitable, then we would talk about it later.
So she couldn't be a big sister and not go if she said she didn't want to go.
And just now, the other party also asked her if she had any ideas about the blind date arrangement tomorrow.
She replied that it was all right and she would listen to him.
Now, the other party had arranged it, but it was not what she expected.
"Okay, I will be there on time tomorrow."
After Lu Qian replied to the message, she saw that the other party had not sent any message for a long time, and her face turned green with anger.
She no longer had any hope for this blind date.
......
Lin Zhou woke up from a nap, and it was already the next day.
At two o'clock in the morning, he came back from the market after buying vegetables.
He still soaked the rice first, and then started to process the abalone.
Hold the palm-sized abalone tightly in your hand, then insert the chopsticks into the abalone shell and turn it around, take the abalone off, clean the internal organs, and then brush the surface of the abalone with a soft brush.
Repeat this action for each abalone, and it will be done in a short while.
Then pour clean water into the pot and boil it, put the washed abalone in and blanch it for about one minute, pick up the abalone, and pour the broth into the basin for later use.
The boiled abalone is soft and full, and the light yellow abalone meat feels good in your hand. Lin Zhou quickly cuts all the abalone meat into dices.
Pour sesame oil into the stainless steel iron barrel pot, pour the chopped abalone meat after the oil is hot, stir-fry until fragrant, and then pour in the soaked rice.
At once, the abalone cubes and rice in the pot are stir-fried evenly. Wait until the fresh and fragrant smell gradually overflows from the pot, then add the abalone broth that has just been poured out, and stir constantly with a wooden spatula.
When the rice gradually softens and is about to be cooked, add the remaining half of the broth and continue to stir with a wooden spatula.
After the rice is cooked, turn to low heat and simmer, turning the wooden spatula from time to time.
Gradually, the abalone porridge becomes sticky, and the snow-white rice grains are also stained with the pale yellow color of the abalone, and are cooked to bloom. The fragrance of the porridge mixed with the fresh fragrance of the abalone fills the entire kitchen. Finally, Lin Zhou added some salt to season it and sprinkled chopped green onions, and it was ready.
Lin Zhou shook his sore wrist and turned off the fire. At this time, the abalone porridge still needs to be simmered for a while.
Smelling the fresh fragrance of the abalone porridge in the air, Lin Zhou took this opportunity to simply stir-fry some hot and sour potato shreds and prepare to eat with the porridge.
You have to eat a full breakfast to have the energy to climb the mountain.
When the lid was opened again, the sticky abalone porridge, the light yellow porridge with snow-white abalone meat and green chopped green onions, the hot steam rose as the lid was opened, the rich fresh fragrance made Lin Zhou's mouth drool.
"It smells so good!"
The freshness of the abalone was absorbed by the rice during the stewing process. In this process, the rice was like a small sponge, absorbing the freshness of the abalone and the rice grains, and kept expanding until it burst.
The rice grains were all cooked and the absorbed essence also overflowed. The fusion of the two ingredients created such a delicious taste.
Looking at such a wonderful color, Lin Zhou sighed that the abalone viscera was fortunately thrown away.
In fact, the abalone viscera can be fried to make porridge together.
But the color and shape of that thing affected the appetite, so Lin Zhou discarded it.
If the porridge was dyed the dark green color of the viscera, although the abalone flavor would be stronger, the appetite would be reduced.
The green porridge is not as appetizing as the appetizing light yellow rice porridge.
It feels like the gain is not worth the loss.
The finished abalone porridge is delicious now.
The abalone granules have been stewed for more than an hour, and they are as soft and sticky as rice grains.
When you eat it, you will feel the freshness and richness, and the toughness of the taste also highlights its difference, which makes people unable to ignore its existence.
It is soft and smooth in the mouth, and the taste is extremely delicious, and even the rice porridge becomes particularly delicious.
This porridge is really well cooked!
Today's abalone porridge has a large amount of abalone, and the taste is amazing. One hundred yuan per serving should not be as difficult to sell as yesterday's sweet potato porridge!
After eating and drinking, Lin Zhou was full and confident to take the abalone porridge out.
When he came to the familiar foot of the mountain, he parked the tricycle first, and then started to climb the mountain with a shoulder pole.
After climbing for two consecutive days, he had clearly felt that his physical strength and endurance had improved, and his body felt more relaxed.
Unlike before, he was drowsy and had no energy every day.
It turns out that exercising is still useful!
When he arrived at the top of the mountain, he took out the loudspeaker first and played the slogan recorded before going out.
"Abalone porridge, delicious abalone porridge100 yuan a bowl, you won't lose money, you won't be cheated, it's delicious enough to make you cry"
Such a striking and harsh horn sound directly attracted all the tourists on the top of the mountain.
It was only six o'clock, and there were not many people on the top of the mountain.
The tourists watched Lin Zhou unload the goods and listened to the propaganda on the loudspeaker, and fell into silence.
A new day, tourists are also new.
Few people climb the mountain every day.
When everyone heard that a bowl of porridge was sold for 100 yuan, they just watched and didn't come forward.
"Boss, do you have business when you sell it so expensively?"
A tourist in the crowd asked curiously.
