CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE Don't hurt your hand

Chapter XXIX

He often came to tea and knew how much a pot of water was worth for the snacks, the shrimp and potato chips were a fraction of the price of the supermarket, the melon seeds and peanuts were a bit more expensive, and the scones were also slightly more expensive.

His actions also quickly sent the guests away.

Hearing the banging sound from inside, what was he doing, making such a big noise? Faang Zheng opened the curtain and arrived at the back, he saw Hsu Haodong chopping firewood.

"I'm so busy. A group of tourists from the city have come to the teahouse for a drink. I haven't even prepared all sorts of requirements for this and that, so it's not enough once the water is boiled. It's not easy for me to boil the water, but after taking care of it for a round, I came back to boil some water, and there's nothing left for me to chop firewood. "

Hsu Haodong nudged Faang Zheng.

"Go ahead and take a look. Don't let anyone escape the bill."

"Let me do it, I don't know how much your snacks are worth."

"How can you do this kind of physical work?! The tender skin broke your hand!"

"Boss!" Give us a pot of iced sweet chrysanthemum tea! "

Someone in front shouted again. Hsu Haodong saw a pot of boiling water and shouted towards the outside.

"Alright!"

He picked up the hot water and walked out.

"Don't move, don't break your hand!"

Hsu Haodong opened the curtain and laughed, especially with the excellent quality of a professional waiter.

Faang Zheng saw that the fire was about to go out, but the bucket of water was not boiling yet. He quickly picked up the firewood on the ground and threw it into the fire, regardless of whether it was going to cut him or not.

The fire was getting weaker, so Faang Zheng picked up a palm-leaf fan and started to fan it.

Hsu Haodong greeted the guest at the front, drank some water and ate some snacks. Someone then went to the restaurant in front of them to eat. Then, it was lunch time and the tour group that stayed at the teahouse also went to eat.

Hsu Haodong quickly went to the back. He saw Faang Zheng sitting on a small horse and fanning the fire.

"Alright, alright, let me do it. How hot are you roasting here on such a hot day?"

Hsu Haodong pushed Faang Zheng, and Faang Zheng's forehead was covered in sweat.

Faang Zheng wanted to throw the firewood in, but Hsu Haodong quickly threw the firewood in first.

At this moment, the water in the vat began to heat up.

"The guests have left for the next wave. In the afternoon, the neighbors from the town come over to drink their water. I'll boil some water first so that we won't be in a hurry."

There were twenty to thirty hot water jugs on the side. They were all big and had plenty of hot water, so they wouldn't be in such a mess.

"Right."

"It must be hot."

Hsu Haodong took the fan from Faang Zheng and gave it to him.

"Hurry up and go outside to cool off. It's not here anymore."

"I've been waiting for the water to boil."

"What do I do if I burn you? I don't need you."

The fire was red as it roasted the two of them. Hsu Haodong's neck was covered in sweat, but he still tried his best to fan Faang Zheng.

Faang Zheng took out a packet of flour paper from his pocket and handed it to him.

Hsu Haodong chuckled, feeling sweet inside his heart.

"Wife, you really love me."

Faang Zheng snorted. He wouldn't say that he was in a good mood due to Hsu Haodong.

He got up and went to the front.

Hsu Haodong filled all the thermos with hot water. When he went back to the front, Faang Zheng was holding a broom and was ready to sweep the floor.

Hsu Haodong was quick, he did all the manual labor and a new batch of customers came.

Faang Zheng had no choice but to accept the money at the cashier counter. Hsu Haodong hurriedly ran over, serving tea and snacks at a time. The group of people from the town came again. This time, Hsu Haodong didn't have the time to tell them a story, so he downloaded some learning software from his phone and broadcasted a ghost story to them.

Business was really good. Hsu Haodong was so busy that he even had food on the back of his head.

After packing up his inventory and calculating how much money he had earned today, he realized that he had earned over a hundred.

I got it today.

Actually, this little amount of money was nothing in their eyes. They were already very surprised to see Uncle Tu and the others earn three days' worth of money in one day.

Otherwise, how could there be a tourist group? This season, we like to go to the mountains, the cool scenery is also good, it's so quiet in the middle of the night and we even have to visit the old town. If the government spent a lot of money to repair and renovate, there would be a lot of good scenery here, there are even ancient Great Wall, and the old cannon is covered with rusted cannons, it's already been hundreds of years.

Not cooking anymore, going to a restaurant to eat was exhausting.

At this moment, Uncle Hwa, the only restaurant in town, ran over happily when he saw Hsu Haodong.

"Dong, I have a lot of customers today. You're the one who introduced them to us. You two are having a meal today, so I'm free!"

"Uncle Hwa, I'll definitely introduce more customers to you from now on. Your roasted chicken is going to get really hot."

"Yes, yes. I'm also thinking about expanding my business. I'll have it whenever I have to."

"Then we're lucky."

"Your second aunt, who sells biscuit snacks, and mine, both need to thank you. Where did you get such a big sale? You don't seem to be reliable, and things really look that way when they happen."

Faang Zheng frowned when he heard this. What do you mean by 'not reliable in normal times'? What do they normally think of Hsu Haodong?
