Chapter 12 Food, Give Me Food... Steamed Buns...
"There are so many people. Will there be no more buns when it's our turn?"
Xiao Wang suddenly had a bad feeling when he saw that there were more people in line than before.
Wen Nan frowned and felt the same way.
But the two of them had nothing to do in the evening. For the sake of breakfast tomorrow morning, they still patiently lined up and waited.
Lin Zhou, who was behind the stall, had dinner tonight in the gap between steaming the second round of buns.
There were too many diners. As soon as the buns were steamed, they excitedly paid for them.
He could only leave the ones he wanted to eat first, and then he was busy packing for the guests.
He kept smelling the fragrance of the buns from a close distance, which made him greedy.
This was the first time for him to make the red bean paste buns and barbecued pork buns. He had been holding back and hadn't eaten them until now.
Now he can finally eat them!
Just when he was about to bite the buns, a sudden figure fainted in front of his stall, and kept saying buns, buns, which scared everyone.
The originally neat queue also became flustered.
"What's going on? What happened to this person?"
"Should we call 120? He suddenly ran over and fell down!"
"Fuck, what happened?"
"Heatstroke? Or something?"
"Call 120!"
"......"
Lin Zhou was also frightened by the sudden incident. He was holding a bun in his hand, his heart was beating, and he was very nervous.
This person suddenly came and fainted in front of his stall, still muttering about buns.
People who don't know what happened might think that he was the one who ate the buns he sold.
Seeing the onlookers who suddenly dispersed and gathered around, Lin Zhou squatted down with a headache and approached the fainted girl.
"Girl, are you okay?"
"Are you still conscious? Let me call 120 for you?"
Lin Zhou shouted nervously, and after a while he saw the girl lying on the ground tremblingly stretched out her hand, expressing that she had not completely lost consciousness.
But judging from her pale face and lips, her current situation is not very good.
The girl shook her head, pointed at the bun in Lin Zhou's hand, and said in a weak but firm voice: "Eat, give me food... buns..."
Lin Zhou came closer and heard her words, looking confused.
But afraid of something happening to her, he still handed the still hot bun to the girl's mouth with trembling hands and fed her.
The girl tilted her head and ate voraciously, swallowing the bun in big mouthfuls as if she hadn't eaten for a few days.
Then she choked as expected...
Seeing that the girl was eating so fast that she wanted to eat a bun in one bite, the onlookers advised her to eat slowly and choked.
The next second, the girl rolled her eyes because of choking.
A group of people were scared and hurried to find water.
Luckily, Lin Zhou habitually brought water when he went out to set up a stall.
Immediately took a bottle of mineral water from the tricycle and helped the girl to drink it.
The shaking hands made it difficult to feed the girl, and the girl was confused. She spit out one mouthful after another, and her clothes were all wet. In such an emergency, no one cared.
"I've called 120, girl, please hold on."
"Did she faint from hunger?"
"Oh, how pitiful, how could she let her child be so hungry."
"......"
Seeing the girl like this, everyone guessed that she was hungry.
But she was still scared.
Fortunately, she fainted in front of Lin Zhou's stall, where there were ready-made buns. If she fainted on the road, it would be so dangerous!
Lin Zhou fed her two buns in one breath and drank half a bottle of water. The girl slowly recovered her strength and could sit up with the help of others.
She also had the strength to speak.
"Boss, I'm sorry to bother you. I have hypoglycemia. I haven't eaten and I may have heatstroke. I didn't expect it to be so serious. I'm sorry to bother you."
"How much is the bun water? I'll pay you."
Seeing the girl looking like she was about to faint at any time, Lin Zhou didn't want to charge her.
Compared to the expected scene, the girl just fainted due to low blood sugar, which was much better.
He almost suspected that there was something wrong with the buns he made, or that people were allergic to them. Why did someone suddenly fall down in front of the stall?
He was almost scared to death.
The ambulance came very quickly.
When the doctors and nurses came, they immediately lifted the girl onto the stretcher and prepared to give her glucose according to the situation.
Seeing that the ambulance had been taken away, the crowd around them gradually dispersed.
In just a moment, Lin Zhou was frightened and sweating.
He stood up and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a tissue.
After he calmed down, he heard his stomach making a rumbling sound of hunger, and then he realized that he had given his dinner to the girl just now.
He didn't think so much at the time.
He couldn't just watch someone faint from hunger.
The remaining buns in the steamer couldn't be moved.
He had to sell two hundred buns every day.
Those given away obviously didn't count.
Excluding the few buns for his own dinner, the remaining buns sold out were exactly 200, and there was no portion for him to eat at all.
Lin Zhou:......
I am very hungry!
Especially after being frightened just now, I am even hungrier now that I have recovered.
So Lin Zhou looked around and focused his eyes on the fried skewers stall next door.
The owner of the fried skewers stall patronizes his business every day.
In business, there is give and take, and it is time for him to patronize other people's business.
"Boss, fry some tenderloin skewers for me, starch sausage, stinky tofu, cabbage..."
After ordering a bucket of kaka, Lin Zhou sat behind the stall and watched the owner of the fried skewers stall start frying them. He was waiting to eat.
Diners continued to line up in front of the stall.
They were all talking about what had just happened.
Many people even took photos.
Xiao Wang didn't know the situation. To prevent the owner of such a delicious bun stall from being extorted, he took photos and recorded it.
Not used, of course it’s best.
It's not that he maliciously speculates on people's hearts, but this kind of thing happens a lot. Before doing anything, you have to take precautions and be prepared.
Otherwise, it will be troublesome if you get extorted money.
Lin Zhou's first reaction was the same at that time. He guessed that the person had eaten the buns and then collapsed. He did not expect that the woman just suffered from hypoglycemia.
I also taught everyone a lesson. I didn’t expect hypoglycemia to be so serious.
By the time Lin Zhou finished eating the fried skewers, the second batch of steamed buns was ready.
The queue started to move.
Everyone's attention also returned to the steamed buns.
"Boss, I want ten red bean paste buns and ten barbecued pork buns."
"Boss, I want two bean paste ones and two barbecued pork ones."
"I also want two of each."
"..."
He looked at the people in front of him, picked up the buns and left, there were quite a lot of them.
Xiao Wang and Wen Nan were both a little anxious.
"Why did the people in front buy so much? What will we do if we don't have any anymore?"
For this kind of thing, you can just buy more, but you will get anxious when you see others buying too much.
I'm afraid that my turn will be gone.
"That's right, I just saw that man carrying two big bags of steamed buns. He bought at least a dozen."
"Hey, there are about ten people in front of me, I'm so anxious!"
