Chapter 173 Buying Short Again
Little did they know that their homemade scallion oil noodles had become a biological weapon, making the children drool.
After finishing her meal, Xia Shiyu started peeling garlic with her mother to prepare some pickled garlic.
Each garlic clove is round and plump, and its purple skin can be easily rubbed off.
Grandma peeled some garlic and said, "These garlic cloves are quite easy to peel. You can just pull them off with your hand. They're also big, much easier to peel than those small garlic cloves."
Grandpa nodded, "It's definitely much easier to peel. This garlic is even better than the ones sold in the market."
"As long as it's easy to peel." Xia Shiyu used to hate peeling those small garlic cloves the most. The skin was particularly difficult to peel, and after peeling, the garlic cloves were not very big, and her fingernails were full of garlic smell.
Grandpa nodded, "Yes, this is much better."
The family of four is peeling garlic, while Xia Lihua is cleaning out the jars. The jars need to be washed thoroughly, and they need to be careful not to break them.
After washing the jar, Yu Juan slowly put the contents in and then finished processing them.
While things are peaceful and serene here, the shops there are seeing a continuous increase in orders.
Jiang Cha was very satisfied with the groceries she had bought, but when she checked the store page again, she found that they were all sold out!
"What! What have they discovered?!"
Jiang Cha was so frightened that she sat up abruptly. Her parents were also startled when they saw her like this.
"What's wrong, Cha Cha?" Mr. and Mrs. Jiang asked.
When Jiang Cha came back to her senses, she said, "It's nothing, Mom and Dad. I was just surprised that all the vegetables in this shop were sold out. Luckily, we bought them early."
"Oh, this is it." Mr. and Mrs. Jiang also looked at the shop, and they found that it was true. The quantities that were originally displayed were all gone.
Mr. Jiang nodded, "There must be others who have discovered the benefits of this shop just like us. Luckily, we bought it first."
Because of the purchase limit, Mr. Jiang directly called on every account in the family to buy, and even Mr. and Mrs. Jiang's accounts were not spared.
Aunt Jiang nodded, "Luckily, we bought some."
When Chen Yuzhu sat down at her computer at work in the afternoon, she found that her backend messages had instantly increased to 99+, and all the sales orders had been sold out.
"Wow, they're all sold out!"
Chen Yuzhu looked at it with increasing curiosity, so she quickly came out and asked Xia Shiyu, "Boss Xia, all the vegetables in the shop are sold out. Should we get some new ones?"
Xia Shiyu was quite surprised, "Sold out so quickly?"
Didn't she just release a new batch yesterday? I remember it was selling quite slowly before.
"Yes, I don't know the situation." Chen Yuzhu shook her head, also unsure of what was going on.
"It's okay, I'll deal with it after I send this batch of vegetables by express delivery."
Xia Shiyu said that it would be more troublesome to send all the packages at the back together.
"Okay, boss," Chen Yuzhu nodded and left.
However, Xia Shiyu still looked through everyone's comments, wanting to see if there was anything special that made the sales so good this time.
After looking through the reviews, I didn't find anything special. I just noticed that there were more positive reviews and all the comments were asking me to order more.
Xia Shiyu was puzzled. "This is strange. What's going on?"
However, after checking the addresses, she found that many of them came from the same place.
Chen Yuzhu said, "It must have been recommended by relatives and friends."
Xia Shiyu nodded, "Then that should be it. No matter how much we care, as long as it sells, that's good."
Xia Shiyu is preparing to ship the goods.
What she didn't know was that it was actually recommended by friends, family, and online acquaintances.
In a WeChat group for residents of a residential complex in City C.
The person who bought grapes, "Dreaming of Horses," is chatting with others in the group.
[Little Pony, we're out of vegetables.]
[Yeah, yeah, my family only managed to get one serving, that's hardly enough for everyone.]
[Yes, the shop will be closed for a few days because of the Chinese New Year, so we definitely won't be able to eat there then.]
[You guys managed to buy some, but I didn't get any at all.]
[Who's fast enough? Help me grab one next time! My whole family failed.]
[Sigh, I didn't even get the grapes, and I didn't get any vegetables either.]
[Next time, please don't leave reviews yet. Let's wait until someone in our neighborhood manages to snag one. The better the reviews, the more people will buy them, and we won't be able to get one anymore.]
[Yes, yes.]
Even looking at the news in the neighborhood, Yi Mengwei is still getting a headache.
He bought grapes before and they worked very well; his parents also ate them and had the same good results.
Then, when his parents went out, they chatted with other elderly people in the neighborhood and talked about the grapes he had bought.
When others heard that this function existed, they thought it was fake.
They all expressed disbelief, feeling that they had been deceived. Mr. and Mrs. Ma disagreed, arguing that it was unacceptable to say they had been deceived.
“We weren’t scammed. The restaurant’s other dishes were delicious, besides grapes. If they were really good, they wouldn’t have needed to cheat us.”
"Is it true, Lao Ma? It's just a dish, how could it be so magical?"
"Hey, you don't believe me? I'll let you try it."
After saying that, Ma's father went upstairs and brought down a head of lettuce. This was a vegetable he bought after "Dreaming of Horses". He bought it because Zhao Yuan said that Xia Shiyu's family not only grows grapes, but also other vegetables that are delicious and good for health.
The grapes at home were for his son's medical treatment, so Mr. Ma was reluctant to use them, but he didn't have much vegetable left.
The others only saw Ma's father rush upstairs and then rush downstairs carrying a basin of clean lettuce.
"Here, you all should try some. I would never lie to you."
The others didn't expect Mr. Ma to be so serious, but after thinking about it, they decided to take it and try it anyway.
"Hey, Lao Ma, you're such a stickler for details. How delicious can a lettuce leaf be..."
"That's right, I don't like this lettuce, only the young people in my family like it."
"Hey, let me try it. It's nothing special, but wow, it's so delicious."
Those who had been boasting suddenly fell silent, and even the few who had spoken stared in shock at the lettuce in their hands, beginning to express their astonishment.
"I never expected it to taste this good."
"I really didn't expect it, it's so delicious."
"Delicious, delicious, crisp and sweet."
Mr. Ma was very proud to see them like this. "See? I didn't lie to you. This lettuce is really delicious."
"Yes, yes, it's delicious! Old Ma, can you let us have some more?"
As they were talking, the others took all the lettuce from Ma's bowl.
Looking at the empty bowl, Ma's mother patted Ma's father and said, "See, you were so smug, now all the food is gone."
Mr. Ma was a little speechless looking at the missing vegetables. Luckily, he had only put in half a head; it would have been a real shame to have put in a whole head.
But now everyone in the neighborhood believed it.
