After being abandoned by the educated youth, I became rich in the 80s

Chapter 169 Invite to dinner

After the movie, it was already past lunch time. Fortunately, the two children had breakfast and ate two eggs in the morning, so they were not too hungry.

Lan Xin asked them both again: "Are you hungry?"

"Mom, I'm not hungry yet." Yingying Yueyue said truthfully.

Lan Xin looked at the location and found that it was not far from the place where Lan Yingjie said he sold tea eggs. She planned to check on this downstream person and see how he was selling.

"Then let's go find your uncle Yingjie and ask him to have lunch with us, how about that?"

Lan Yingjie is not very old, only two months older than Lan Xi, but he is more stable than him. In the past, Yingying and Yueyue also liked this uncle who played with them very much, not to mention that he came to their house every day to wholesale tea eggs.

They immediately cheered: "Great, let's find Uncle Yingjie."

Lan Xin asked for directions and found the road closest to the bus station. Sure enough, she saw Lan Yingjie selling tea eggs from afar.

He followed Lan Xin's instructions completely. He went to the factory gate to sell in the morning, and then went to the bus station to continue selling after he finished selling.

Lan Yingjie thought that today was the last day to sell tea eggs, and he wanted to make more money, so he asked Lan Xin for 150 tea eggs.

In order to sell the tea eggs quickly, he didn't have time to eat lunch, or rather, he didn't plan to eat lunch. He just took the sweet potatoes he brought from home in the morning, put some water in a bowl and ate it.

"Uncle Yingjie, Uncle Yingjie."

Hearing Yingying's pleasant voice, Lan Yingjie thought there was something wrong with his ears, otherwise how could he hear someone calling him?

He turned around and looked in the direction of the sound, his face full of surprise. He put the basket in front of him on his back and jogged over.

"Sister Lanxin, Yingying, Yueyue, why are you here?"

"I came to the city to do some business." Lan Xin looked at Lan Yingjie, who was sweating profusely. The young man was working very hard, and she could see him actively promoting his products from a distance.

Lan Xin asked him, "Have you had lunch?"

Lan Yingjie shook his head and smiled shyly: "Not yet."

"That's great. Come on, I'll treat you to lunch." Lan Xin said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Lan Yingjie blushed and became at a loss: "I, I..."

Even Yingying and Yueyue couldn't bear to see him continue to drag on, and hurriedly shouted, "Uncle Yingjie, we are hungry."

"Okay." Lan Yingjie said with a red face.

Lan Xin didn't walk far and found a small restaurant nearby. It was past lunch time and there were not many people in the restaurant.

Lan Xin and the two children sat down skillfully. After being taken out to eat by Lan Xin so many times, the two children have become very calm, but Lan Yingjie is a little awkward.

Lan Xin looked at the red paper menu on the wall, turned around and asked Lan Yingjie: "Yingjie, what do you want to eat? Just tell me."

Lan Yingjie looked around uncomfortably and hurriedly shook his hand: "I, I can eat anything. I'm not picky about food."

He was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. The shopkeeper who came to serve him gritted his teeth and turned on the only electric fan with a look of heartache.

The Diamond brand fan started blowing, but the stingy owner only turned it on at one speed. As a result, the entire restaurant did not become cooler, but it was no longer so stuffy.

Lan Yingjie looked at the shaking fan with envy.

Lan Yingjie didn't order any food. Lan Xin knew that he was uncomfortable, but considering the boy's self-esteem, she didn't force him and turned to ask Xiang Yingying and Yueyue.

"Mom, I want to eat fish!" Yingying said to Lan Xin eagerly.

There is no river in Lanjia Village, so if you want to eat fish, you have to go out and buy it, which is quite troublesome. However, meat and eggs are no longer the favorites of the two children as they have eaten too much of them recently.

"Okay, Yueyue, what about you? Sister wants to eat fish." Lan Xin turned her head to look at Yueyue.

Finally, Lan Xin ordered a braised fish, a stir-fried meat, and a pot of sauerkraut soup. The sour and spicy dishes were appetizing and thirst-quenching, and all four of them were very satisfied.

While waiting for the boss to serve the food, I planned to ask about Lan Yingjie's situation first.

“How are your sales today?”

Lan Yingjie sat up straight at once, with a stern face, as if he was a student being called by the teacher.

"Today's sales are better than yesterday. We have sold more than 80 tea eggs in this morning."

Lan Yingjie smiled as he said this. He brought a total of 150 tea eggs, and now more than half of them have been sold. He can relax a little in the afternoon.

Most of them were returning customers who had eaten the tea eggs before, but of course there were also new customers, partly because Lan Yingjie was more skilled than yesterday, better at business promotion and better at speaking.

"That's good, the rest will be sold out soon." Lan Xin nodded in relief.

There are so many choices in the city, so tea eggs don’t sell as well as they do in Sanqing Mountain.

"When there are no long-distance buses at the station in the afternoon, you can go to the hospital or the cinema to sell your things." Lan Xin kept giving suggestions. Of course, she hoped that Lan Yingjie could sell his things quickly and comfortably.

Just now, I saw him shouting under the scorching sun, and Lan Xin felt sad.

"Okay." Lan Yingjie kept Lan Xin's suggestion in mind and planned to try it in the afternoon.

At this time, the dishes were served. Lan Xin greeted them and served a bowl of sauerkraut soup to everyone: "Eat quickly. You must be starving at this hour."

In the sultry weather, even drinking a bellyful of water did not quench my thirst. However, after drinking this bowl of hot and sour sauerkraut appetizer soup, I felt comfortable all over. Suddenly, I felt hungry and started to eat.

Originally Lan Yingjie was still a little hesitant, but Lan Xin's words, "The three of them, mother and daughter, can't eat so many dishes. It will be a waste if they don't finish them," made Lan Yingjie lower his head and start eating voraciously.

After the meal, the four of them burped with satisfaction, holding their stomachs.

Lan Yingjie's face was flushed as he ate. He had never eaten such delicious food before. No, he had to hurry up and make money so that he could take his grandparents out for a meal.

Seeing Lan Xin giving the money, Lan Yingjie said awkwardly: "Sister Lan Xin, I will sell the tea eggs well and treat you to dinner."

"I've already told you that this meal is my treat." Lan Xin was amused, patted his shoulder, and told him to hurry up and sell the tea eggs.

The weather is hot and humid, so it’s better to sell the items early so that they will be fresher.

After Lan Yingjie left, Lan Xin looked at Yingying and Yueyue and asked, "Where do you want to go next?"

The county town is not small, but there are not many places suitable for children to play. The two children hesitated and didn't know where to go.

Finally, Lan Xin had to take them to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things. In fact, Lan Xin wanted to find a designer to help her design the hotel today. After all, the land was in hand, and the hotel could be built.

Lan Xin had her own ideas about how she wanted the hotel to be decorated, but she still had to draw up every aspect of the plan. This project was too big, so Lan Xin felt that she had to find a professional.

After walking around, Lan Xin realized that it was not easy to find professionals.
