Third watch.
***************************
In Zhongli City, there was an eatery, renowned far and wide, called Heshan Hall, where customers buying meat buns could be seen lining up from one end of the street to the other, making the competition green with envy.
Normally, the shop would open around 5 a.m., with several large steamers set up at the entrance, steaming hot and the scent of the meat buns reaching everyone in the city. But today was different. It was past 7 a.m. and despite people queuing throughout the street, the shop had not opened, leading the nosy ones to knock on the door forcefully. Who had ever seen a shop refusing to do business? It was simply illogical.
Soon after, the owner came out, wiping his sweaty face and with a pale expression, he apologizingly said, "Sorry ... everyone, today's buns have been bought by someone entirely ... please buy from other shops."
Upon hearing that all the meat buns were sold out, everyone reluctantly murmured and walked away.
