Chapter 60 Hot Lobster and Fruit Tea
Chapter 60 Hot Lobster and Fruit Tea
Seeing Yufei's haughty demeanor, Xu Jun readily obliged and chose watermelon bubble tea from among the various fruit teas.
⊙▽⊙ It's so delicious! The spiciness from the lobster I just ate has completely disappeared, leaving only the sweetness and coolness of the watermelon.
As expected, everything Yufei makes is delicious. Xu Jun took another big gulp of watermelon tea, squinting his eyes to enjoy it.
By the time Xu Jun had drunk a third of his fruit tea, the crayfish had been devoured by the others in the vineyard.
Their mouths were greasy with chili oil, and they returned to their seats, completely satisfied. Perhaps nothing in the world tasted better than the crayfish they'd snatched.
Huh? What's that? Hearing the gurgling sound, dozens of pairs of eyes, as bright as light bulbs, immediately fixed their gaze on the fruit tea in Xu Jun's hand.
Have you heard of the legend of the Hungry Wolf? Xu Junyi tells you he's not only heard of it, but he's also witnessed it firsthand: a dozen pairs of green eyes are staring at him—no, I mean, at the milk tea in his hand.
One of the pairs even belonged to his mother.
"Son, what's this?" Xu Jun had never seen his mother so flattering before, and his excessive surprise caused him to lose his composure, allowing his mother to take advantage of his vulnerability and snatch his fruit tea from his mouth!
This is an irreconcilable feud over stealing her milk tea!! Even if it's his mother! Hmph, a gentleman takes his revenge after ten years; he'll beat her grandchildren until she's heartbroken and can't bear it anymore.
But what was more important now was that Xu Jun looked pitifully at Yufei, hoping to get another bottle.
Everyone else looked at Xu Junyi with pitiful expressions, wondering why he still didn't understand. Their gazes turned to Yufei, making her scalp tingle.
Yufei shrugged, indicating that she was gone. She really was gone; those cunning guys had sneaked away and taken her backpack while everyone's attention was on Xu Junyi.
I wonder where she is hiding somewhere, drinking fruit tea.
"Xiao Yufei, please be kind~ Could you please get another bottle? I'll pay for it!" Li Xin, the homeroom teacher of Class 2, Grade 8, was a straightforward person; if Yufei wanted a drink, she would directly tell her.
"Hey! It's not like you're the only one with money! Xiaoyufei, your Uncle Wang wants to buy a bottle too!"
"I also want!"
"I also want!!"
……
The crowd murmured, all expressing their desire to have one, their wolf tails wagging wildly.
Yufei also wanted to expand her business, which was part of her plan. For a small town to develop sustainably, it not only needs a large amount of financial investment and unique support, but also needs to mobilize people to form its own industrial chain.
In her past life, the young and middle-aged people in Yufei's small town had all gone off to study, leaving only a few elderly people to pitifully guard the houses in the town.
Waiting for my children and grandchildren to come back and visit when they have a little free time.
The more deserted the town becomes, the harder it is to make money, and the slower it is to retain people, creating a vicious cycle.
Every time Yufei visited her grandmother, she saw that the school she remembered was dilapidated, with two or three children attending one after another, one teacher teaching two or three students in one classroom.
Yufei recalled the dilapidated Longyuan Town of that time and wondered what it was like to see the old man barely clinging to life, where everything exuded a sense of decline and desolation.
She doesn't want this to happen again, so she's working hard to change things now!
Spicy crayfish and milk tea were wildly popular throughout the entire Great Xia Dynasty, and even the entire Blue Star, in my previous life.
She's now bringing those two things out into the world, and into the game as well. Everything else is fine; she's transforming the town into a food and gaming hub, and adding architectural styles that mimic the various dynasties of the Great Xia Dynasty.
They hired people from the town to live in different dynasties and portray the customs and traditions of those dynasties.
Finally, a unique festival shared by the entire town should be added to infuse the town with its soul. During the summer vacation, large-scale events should be held like a pilgrimage. Over time, this will cultivate a rich cultural atmosphere.
Yufei believes this will be incredibly appealing to people whose living standards improve in the future, who want to pursue a richer spiritual life, and who enjoy travel and games.
But this process will be very long, and she might spend all her earnings on it, or it could become a money-devouring beast, forcing her to constantly earn money to support it, without necessarily receiving any financial return.
But that's okay! Everyone leaves something behind in this world. Most choose to leave their genes to their descendants, some leave their mark in certain fields, or leave their mark in people's hearts.
She wanted to leave something in people's hearts with a town.
Therefore, she doesn't plan to make lobster and milk tea herself, but rather to pass on the skills to someone she trusts; of course, this is only one part of the process.
I can't reveal the plans for now →_→, but things are gradually developing as Yufei expected.
Therefore, when Li Xin saw the teacher ask this question, Yufei pretended to be very embarrassed.
"Uncle Li, of course I'd be happy to prepare a cup of milk tea for all the uncles and aunties, or even an all-you-can-eat lobster feast!"
But look at me, I'm so small, I can't possibly handle all that. If this were to happen, I'd basically be in the kitchen, and I definitely wouldn't do it.”
Upon hearing this, the eyes that had been shining with gleam instantly dimmed, and they drooped like abandoned stray dogs, their ears and tails hanging low.
Life has lost all hope and joy.
"However..." Yufei's sudden change of topic, like teasing a cat, cheered up the people who were initially dejected.
Full of energy, his eyes lit up again as he looked at Yufei, waiting for the next words.
"However, it's not impossible if someone helps me."
As soon as Yufei finished speaking, people started to respond.
"I!"
"I!"
It was Aunt Li and a few other aunties. Aunt Li was the enthusiastic auntie who helped Yufei when she was threatened by Jin Tingting's mother.
Yufei had been observing her for a while since that day, and she found that Aunt Li was a kind-hearted and all-knowing person.
But she wasn't a gossip; she kept her mouth shut about things she shouldn't say.
For example, the information about Jin Tingting's mother's first punishment and what happened that day did not originate from Aunt Li.
Yufei had also inquired around, and none of the gossip circulating at school or near the teachers' building was what Aunt Li had said.
Yufei felt that Aunt Li was a trustworthy person, so when Aunt Li offered to help, she was the first person Yufei chose.
There were a few more, but Yufei, considering her past life and her interactions with them in this life, chose Aunt Li, Teacher Jin's wife, a very gentle and down-to-earth woman.
Those who weren't selected felt a deep sense of regret, as if they had missed out on something, a feeling of profound loss.
Aunt Li and Aunt Li followed Yufei to her house. Actually, making milk tea is very simple, just a few steps.
The slightly more difficult part was preparing the lobster, but both of them were seasoned cooks, so once they understood the principles, they were able to make it.
The braising liquid was already prepared; the main task was to prepare the main ingredient: lobsters. There are plenty of lobsters in Longyuan Town now. After this meal...
The people playing the vineyard game had lost interest in the game and had all gone out lobster fishing.
