Protagonist:

Lu Feng

The female boss moved forward two steps and saw several stainless steel buckets placed at the entrance of Lu Feng's shop.

She recognized them as the soy milk buckets belonging to the old man surnamed Zhang at the street corner.

Wasn't he setting up his stall at the street corner? Why is he setting up here today?

And there weren't this many people buying soy milk before, so why is it suddenly selling so well today?

Even if soy milk tastes good, could it possibly taste better than my iced cola?

Impossible!

It's so hot today, in the middle of this noon, how refreshing is it to gulp down an iced drink?

Isn't that much more refreshing than drinking soy milk?

What's going on here?

Seeing the vending machine's sales were so bleak, the female boss felt a vague sense of foreboding in her heart.

She was pondering when she suddenly saw a girl walk out of the line, holding an empty soy milk cup, walking toward the garbage bin near her.

The female boss hurried over, piling a smile on her face: "Young Lady, let me ask you something."

The girl stopped and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"In this scorching heat, why don't you drink an iced beverage? Wouldn't that be more thirst-quenching!"

The female boss pointed to the vending machine behind her and asked with a smile.

The girl threw her empty cup into the garbage bin, looked at the female boss, and answered seriously: "I won't drink beverages anymore from now on, I'm going to listen to Lu Boss."

"Lu Boss? Does he even manage what you drink? What right does he have to manage that?"

The female boss furrowed her brow and asked with dissatisfaction in her tone.

This man surnamed Lu, if he runs a restaurant, he runs a restaurant, why does he even care what customers drink?

Isn't this clearly targeting me?

He's just a small restaurant owner, where does he get such great power?

"It's not managing, it's because Lu Boss cares about our health!"

The girl smiled and explained: "Lu Boss said drinks affect the taste in the mouth, and today there's free soy milk and mung bean soup, who would still drink beverages?"

After speaking, the girl quickly walked back into the line.

The female boss stood in place, her complexion inevitably turning gloomy.

"Damn it! What kind of soul soup has this man surnamed Lu fed these people? Not one of them drinks beverages and goes to drink soy milk instead?"

The female boss gritted her teeth, looking at the gate of Lu Feng's shop, cursing silently in her heart.

She couldn't help but feel anxious.

She had just ordered ten thousand bottles of drinks from Glasses Man yesterday, and the money had already been paid.

If no one comes to buy drinks from her anymore, how is she going to make money?

The female boss unwillingly stood by the garbage bin and asked several diners who came to throw away soy milk cups one after another.

The answers she got were without exception, all saying it was because of Lu Boss's warm reminder, and the free soy milk at the shop entrance.

The more she asked, the more panicked the female boss felt in her heart.

Since this man surnamed Lu came to Food Street, he stole her customers, and now he even wants to steal her drink business?

This little brat, he wants to cut off my source of wealth!

The female boss clenched her fist and decided to go to the entrance of Lu Feng's shop to take a look.

She wanted to see what exactly was written on that small blackboard, that could make so many people willingly listen to him!

Just as she walked to the entrance of Lu Feng's shop, she saw the standing small blackboard.

The female boss read it word by word, sentence by sentence, and her brows gradually relaxed.

By the time she finished reading the last word, she couldn't help but snort with laughter.

"Just this? I thought this man surnamed Lu promised these people some huge benefits! After all that trouble, he just wrote these few lines of nonsense?"

The female boss's gaze swept over the diners in line.

The diners held their soy milk, chatting and laughing, not a single one looking at the vending machine at her shop entrance.

But after reading the content on the small blackboard, the worry in the female boss's heart subsided quite a bit.

In her opinion, this so-called warm reminder was completely useless.

Most of those who came to buy drinks at the vending machine yesterday were young people in their twenties.

Young people nowadays all have their own minds.

Let alone the preaching of a small restaurant owner like you.

Even their parents' words might not be listened to.

As for the cancellation of the purchase limit mentioned above, she didn't take it to heart at all.

What difference does canceling the purchase limit make?

She didn't believe that even if someone really took drinks to eat at Lu Feng's shop, he would refuse to sell them things because of that.

As for things like "affecting taste" and "helping everyone change habits."

The female boss felt even more that these were all stiff excuses.

She had never heard of drinking beverages being able to wash away the taste in one's mouth.

Isn't it just because he made a good amount of money selling drinks yesterday, felt unbalanced inside, and wanted people to eat a few more dishes at his place so he could earn more money later?

The more the boss's wife thought about it, the more she felt that was exactly the case, and a hint of disdain showed in her eyes.

This kid surnamed Lu is young, but he has quite a few tricks up his sleeve.

It's a pity his brain isn't very bright.

You have to know, young people these days hate it most when others preach to them.

The more you stop them from drinking, the more they want to drink.

Do you really think that just because the food tastes a little better, people will listen to you?

Hehe, too naive!

He doesn't even understand this simple principle; he really is a reckless greenhorn.

As for the fact that the vending machine's sales aren't high right now, the boss's wife isn't panicking anymore either.

Lu Feng's shop hasn't reached business hours yet, and the diners are drinking soy milk purely because it's free.

Once they sit down to eat and get thirsty, won't they still have to come buy drinks?

By then, her vending machine will still sell as hot as it did yesterday.

After returning to the Braised Food Shop, the boss's wife took out her mobile phone, found the bespectacled man's number, and dialed it.

"Hello, young man, today there are more people queuing at the door of that kid surnamed Lu than yesterday. Hurry up and arrange for someone to bring a truckload of drinks over, the more the better. I'm afraid there won't be enough to sell if it's too late!"

The bespectacled man was very efficient; before long, he had arranged for a delivery driver to bring a truckload of drinks to Food Street.

Just as the delivery worker was carrying two boxes of Cola into the Braised Food Shop, he frowned: "Sis, your shop can't fit them all, can it? There are still plenty of drinks on the truck!"

"It's fine. If they don't fit, just put them at the Door. Anyway, they'll all sell sooner or later."

The boss's wife pointed to the empty space outside the door and said nonchalantly.

"Won't putting them at the Door be in the way? If you pile so many Drink Boxes at the Door, customers will have to walk around them when they come. Won't your braised food be impossible to sell then?"

The delivery worker glanced at the Door and said somewhat hesitantly.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, not many people come to buy. Putting them at the Door will be convenient for me to restock later. I moved things all day yesterday, going back and forth dozens of times. My back is almost broken!"

Although the boss's wife was complaining with her mouth, she had a smug smile on her face.

"Fine, then I'll just pile them at the Door."

Seeing this, the delivery worker said nothing more and nimbly piled the drinks from the truck at the door of the Braised Food Shop.

While the delivery worker was unloading, the bespectacled man also arrived at Food Street not long after.
