Chapter 274 The Steel Straight Man (Second Update)
Liao Sinuo’s cooking skills were good; she quickly prepared four dishes and a soup, authentic Haicheng cuisine.
"Xiaofeng, how’s your specialty product selling? Where can I find it for sale? I’ve almost finished the ones at home. If it’s available in Haicheng, I can go buy some." Sister Liao wasn’t originally from Haicheng. She just married and settled there after teaching in the city.
Since she had put down roots in Haicheng, she could count on one hand the number of times she had returned to her hometown.
"Sister, do we have a store inside our school? If so, I’d like to have a talk with them to see if we can stock some items there. I think these products would be very popular among the students." Students in that era were simple; they’d often go for the cheapest meals, and some would save money by just eating steamed buns.
"Right, that’s a good idea," Sister Liao said as she sat down. "That’s business thinking for you, always different from us. Fangzhou, don’t you know Old Zhou from the school store quite well? Take Xiaofeng there later for a look around."
Gao Fangzhou, a man of few words, had been quietly sitting and eating his meal. Upon hearing Sister Liao’s suggestion, he nodded, "Alright, I’ll take her to visit Uncle Zhou later."
"Uncle Zhou is good-tempered. Many students like dealing with him." Sister Liao was well acquainted with everything at Haicheng University, "Just tell him I sent you. Who knows, he might stock more items to save face for me."
"If the school store has them, it’d be more convenient for me to buy some too," Sister Liao admitted, holding some personal interest as well.
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaofeng realized she was about to land another business deal. She stood up, toasting with water instead of wine, "Sister, though we met by chance, I’m really grateful for your help. Here’s to you."
"It’s good to see a young person willing to work hard," Sister Liao looked at Gao Fangzhou. "My son is fine in every way; he just doesn’t talk much. He’s the type who would rather stay home all day than go out."
