Chapter 213 – The orders came in like snowflakes. (2)
“What’s the matter? You are still coming up with the list? That’s alright, you still have plenty of time to mull over it.” Lin Hui thought Shu Yan was still working on her list.
“No, I have an idea. You know that I just moved to City Nan this year and don’t really know a lot of people. I have less than 20 people in total, maybe two tables full of guests.” Shu Yan thought about it for a little and thought that sounded about right.
“That’s good. Do you have a menu for the event? I have one from the past. Would you like a copy?” Lin Hui thought about it quickly. Two table full of guests wouldn’t be too difficult.
“Oh, good. That’s what I am worrying about.” In the past, Shu Yan had always taken people to dine outside and it was easy to order a table full of food. She really had no idea what to order at home.
“Alright then. I’ll go grocery shop with you on the morning of the 16th. We will have Xiuyue come and help too. Three of us should be more than enough to handle two table-full of food,” said Lin Hui with a smile.
“Not just the three of us. I invited Xiuyue’s sister-in-law also and she can help as well. There will be four of us. One of us take care of the rinsing of the vegetables, one take care of the chopping and cutting, and two for the cooking. That should be more than enough.” Shu Yan was more worried that there were more people than her kitchen could hold.
“That’s great. More people mean less work for everyone.” Lin Hui found the menu and handed it over to Shu Yan. “These are the usual dishes that we have here for such events. You can take a look and see if you want to add any special dishes from your region.”
“I do know a few major dishes from my region. I’ll have you guys try them on the day of.” Shu Yan took a look at the menu and got an idea.
“Alright, we will wait for your dishes then,” said Lin Hui as she walked Shu Yan out.
Shu Yan told Hu Ruixue that she would be moving on the 16th the very next day and Hu Ruixue immediately offered to help.

“Do you know how to cook?” Shu Yan recalled what it was like when she tried to teach her how to make the sweet soup. It was like a warzone. She didn’t want to create more work for herself. It just might be better off for them to not have Hu Ruixue help them out.
Hu Ruixue wasn’t unhappy now. “I can at least help with rinsing the vegetables and dishing out the plates.” She finally hrumphed when Shu Yan apologized. “You don’t need to buy any seafood. I receive too many as gifts and we can’t even finish eating them. I will bring some over for you and they will also double as my housewarming gift for you.”
Shu Yan saw no reason to turn down her generosity. She gave Hu Ruixue a list and even joked that she should empty out her house for her.
“Shoo, shoo, shoo. You keep that up and I won’t give you any of it.” Hu Ruixue adjusted her position and said, “There’s something else I want to talk to you about. Our commercial is going to be aired tonight?”
“Already? Which channel is it going to be on?” Shu Yan looked at Hu Ruixue. She was pleasantly surprised.
“City Nan Station. It will play tonight. You must watch it on television.” Hu Ruixue was very excited too. Tonight would decide the fate of their company.
Shu Yan clapped her hands. “How much inventory do we have?” She understood the power of commercials very well.
“We have about 30,000 sets. That ought to last us for a while.” This was the amount that Shu Yan and her had came up with after several discussions.
Truth be told, Lao Zhang was sheer lucky that he happened to run into someone from Taiwan merchandizing and that was the only reason he was able to wholesale the amount that he did.
City Nan Station would be playing the 2-minute version of their commercial during prime time. The house that Shu Yan was renting has a television inside of it. She normally allowed the kids to watch television for an hour over dinner but she turned the television on as soon as she got home today.
Tianbao thought that his mother had forgot and wanted to pretend that he didn’t notice it. JingJing was the more honest one and she said, “Mom, you turned the television on too early.”
Shu Yan busted out laughing when she turned and saw Tianbao giving his sister a you-are-so-hopeless look. “I didn’t turn it on too early. Do you remember Aunty Xue from last time? She has a commercial that will be playing on television tonight and Mommy wants to see it.”
Their commercial came on shortly.
