Ni Yang had known all along that after her Sour Fish Noodle Soup became popular, imitators would appear. However, she didn't expect them to turn up so quickly.
She was watching the middle-aged woman trying to haggle.
With a smile, Ni Yang said, "I'm sorry, comrade, this is a small business, I can't lower the price any further."
The imitator's Pickled Fish Noodles had just come out and it was also 5 cents cheaper per bowl. Naturally, everyone would choose the newcomer, seeking novelty and cheaper prices.
The appearance of the imitator had its pros and cons for Ni Yang.
The advantage was that the quality difference would be highlighted only in comparison.
Ni Yang was now using a secret recipe for the pickles and the chili, the imitator could never replicate the exact same taste. Ni Yang was still full of confidence in her own skills.
The disadvantage was that they had taken over most of her business this morning.
