More customers arrived one after another. Due to the favorable situation and the fact that Li Xiaoran's knife-cut noodles tasted very good, they sold everything they had prepared on the first day.
At noon, because there were guests, Li Xiaoran and the others didn't go back. They made a bowl of noodles and ate it for lunch.
Since everything had been sold, they naturally had to pack up and go back to rest.
It was still mid-afternoon.
After the three of them returned to their residence with their things, Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing sat at the table and counted the money excitedly.
Other than the one tael of silver left behind by Liu Zhongyi, the rest were copper coins.
They took out the money and strung them up one by one. Li Xiaoran and her sister counted them together.
Fifty coins were strung on each string. There were eight.
It amounted to four hundred.
After the deduction of the cost of today's ingredients, the profit was 200 copper coins.
This was two hundred copper coins. In the past, their family had never even seen fifty copper coins.
Li Shun's face lit up when he saw how much money his two daughters had earned.
"I really didn't expect this noodle stall to be so profitable!"
"That's right! In the past, not to mention 200 copper coins, I would have woken up laughing if I could earn 50 copper coins a month!" Zhao Xiu said happily, "In that case, those people who set up noodle stalls in town have also earned a lot!"
"Dad, Mom, don't think that it's so easy to earn money. The reason why this noodle stall makes money is because I'm good at cooking. The noodles I make are delicious. The noodles made in this town can't compare to my cooking!" Li Xiaoqing said proudly.
"Yes, yes, yes, you're awesome! In our family, you're the most promising now! Next is Xiao Qing! In the future, your father and I will rely on you two daughters to take care of us!" Zhao Xiu couldn't help but tease.
When Li Xiaoqing heard this, she was immediately amused.
"It's not impossible. In the future, I'll find someone to marry into our family. In the future, we'll be filial to you!"
"Girl, how old are you? You're already thinking of someone marrying into the family!" When Li Xiaoran heard this, she couldn't help but tease, "Actually, you getting married won't affect you being filial to your parents. You just need to find a man who can understand you and support you. You can also bring us over!"
When Li Xiaoqing heard her sister's words, she patted her head.
"That's right, why didn't I think of that?!" Li Xiaoqing said in realization.
These words made Li Shun and Zhao Xiu laugh again.
Actually, in Li Shun and Zhao Xiu's hearts, their current lives were already very good.
They were already very content that they no longer had to be bullied by their family and could do whatever they wanted.
In the next few days, Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing went to the stall every day.
It could be said that the weather was good. It was a sunny day for several days in a row.
Of course, Luo Cheng also followed Li Xiaoran and the others to the stall every day.
Gradually, people in the surrounding villages also learned that someone had set up a noodle stall by the government road.
On the tenth day of setting up the stall, when Luo Cheng arrived at the place where they usually set up the stall, he realized that someone had actually occupied their spot.
Not only the location, but even the simple stove that Li Shun had built for Li Xiaoran was also occupied.
"What's wrong with you guys? If you want to set up a stall, go to the side! Why are you taking our spot?! And we built this stove. What right do you have to use it?" Li Xiaoqing was impatient. When she saw that someone had taken a spot, she rushed up and questioned them.
"This land belongs to your family? This stove is built by your family just because you say so? I can also say that I built it!" A man with big yellow teeth said indifferently.
Li Xiaoran walked over and looked at the man in front of him carefully. Then, she looked at the few strong young men beside him and her expression immediately darkened.
It seemed that some people thought that they were pushovers, so they openly bullied them.
These men were clearly not from their village. They had come from somewhere else.
Just as Li Xiaoran was staring at him and thinking about how to resolve this matter, the man with yellow teeth saw Li Xiaoran staring at him and immediately had designs on her.
"Yo, girl, why are you staring at a man like me? Do you lack men? If you do, just say it! You can follow me home today. I'll definitely dote on you and let you experience the feeling of being a woman!" As he spoke, the man reached out his hand maliciously to pinch Li Xiaoran's face.
Luo Cheng, who had been following Li Xiaoran, heard that the other party had designs on his woman and kicked him.
The yellow-toothed man didn't expect Luo Cheng to attack. He was caught off guard and was kicked far away.
Pain coursed through his entire body. The yellow-toothed man gritted his teeth and said, "Buddies, attack! Kill this ignorant fellow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, seven or eight people surrounded Luo Cheng.
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran reached out and pulled her frightened sister, Li Xiaoqing, to her side. Then, she handed her a spatula.
"Xiao Qing, if anyone comes looking for trouble later, hit them directly in the eyes, the soft parts! Remember, don't be afraid! Even if we have to risk our lives, we have to teach these people a lesson!" Li Xiaoran said sternly.
Li Xiaoqing was startled by her sister's stern voice. She looked at the people coming over and composed herself. Then she nodded fiercely.
"Sister, don't worry. I'll let them know that we're not to be trifled with!"
Li Xiaoran picked up the soup spoon and clenched her fists as she stared at the person running over.
Naturally, Luo Cheng wasn't stupid. He wouldn't fight the other party with his bare hands. He pulled out a piece of firewood and waved it around.
Li Xiaoran knew that Luo Cheng was very capable, but she didn't know that Luo Cheng was actually so capable.
With a piece of firewood landed in his hand, he actually beat the hell out of the surrounding group.
There was a fish that escaped the net. He was hit by Li Xiaoqing's spatula on his left and Li Xiaoran's soup ladle on his right.
Before he could find a direction to counterattack, he received another heavy blow to his waist.
It had to be said that Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing were really ruthless!
Where the elder sister led the attack, the younger sister immediately followed suit. In the end, this unlucky fellow fell to the ground. His waist was almost crippled and he couldn't get up at all.
Just as he struggled, a basket full of heavy objects landed.
Li Xiaoran and Li Xiaoqing pressed down hard together, firmly suppressing the unlucky guy below!
