Chapter 2 Winter and Summer Fruit Drink Shop, Snake Bear

 Dongxia Fruit Drink Shop is located in an alley behind the commercial street, with average foot traffic. It usually sells some tree fruit drinks, but it relies entirely on repeat customers from nearby, so its business is tepid.
But today, it seems a little different.
"Sister Xia Yi, hasn't the store manager come yet?"
"Why is No. 1 juice out of puree? Sister Xia Yi, is No. 1 still in stock?"
"Package No. 3, who wants Juice Package No. 3?"
Xia Yi is wearing a smart suit, her long black hair is tied up, her twenty-year-old face is outlined with professional makeup, and she has a calm smile on her lips.
But if you observe carefully at this time, you will find that Xia Yi's knuckles are white and her eyes can't help but glance towards the door.
A panic loomed in my heart.
"What should I do, what should I do? It's not even Golden Week yet, so my eldest sister will ask for leave."
"Didn't the eldest sister contact Xiao Yuan to replace her? Why haven't you come yet?"
"Fruit drinks are all prepared by Xiaoyuan. How do I know if the original solution has run out?"
Xia Yi felt that her eyes were darkening, her ears were buzzing, and the sound seemed to be leaving her.
"Welcome to Dongxia Fruit Drink Shop...Huh? Chen Yuan!" The part-time clerk looked surprised, "Sister Xia Yi, Chen Yuan is here."
Chen Yuan is here?
Xia Yi perked up, stretched out her long legs, and rushed to Chen Yuan, "You're here."
Chen Yuan glanced at the chaotic fruit drink shop and knew something in his mind: "The store manager is off today, I will take over the shift. The store uniforms are in my cabinet. Sister Xiaohua, bring them over for me. I will deal with the customers here first."
question."
"Brother Yuan, what should I do if the No. 1 fruit drink original solution is gone?"
A female clerk asked. She was in her mid-twenties, obviously much older than Chen Yuan, but she didn't feel any psychological pressure at all when she called Brother Yuanyuan.
Chen Yuandao: "There is my newly prepared puree in the warehouse on the underground floor. Sister Xia Yi, please go down and get it."
"Okay." Xia Yi went downstairs without hesitation.
Chen Yuan nodded and just took a breath when a clerk immediately asked: "Brother Yuan, customer No. 39 wants to buy the No. 13 mixed juice you made."
"That one is gone. Tell the guests that the No. 13 mixed juice is a summer limited edition and is no longer available."
"Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, guest No. 39 said he wants to drink No. 13 juice. You can add money."
Hua Xi approached Chen Yuan and lowered his voice: "He seems to be a distinguished guest. He should not be short of money."
Glancing at the figure sitting by the window, wearing a peaked cap, holding his chin and looking out the window, Chen Yuan smiled.
"The young lady seems to be a senior from Beiyu University and a regular customer.
But the rules must not be broken. Sister Hua, as soon as she was asked to join the group, she said that the group members would be randomly selected to sample newly developed fruit drinks. Then she would be given a cup of No. 14 autumn limited-edition mixed fruit drinks...
No, I will send it to you in person later, she will like it."
"Understood."
……
Soon, a cup of orange pineapple-flavored mixed juice was placed in front of him. Jiang Xiaoning had a vague impression of the person delivering the food. He was the acting store manager of this store. He seemed to be named Chen Yuan or Jiang Yuan.
I heard that all the puree of fruit drinks in this store are made by this young man. What a talent.
However, looking at the unfamiliar drink, Jiang Xiaoning frowned, "I want the No. 13 mixed juice. The one you gave me seems to be a mistake, right?"
Chen Yuan smiled and said: "This is our store's newly developed autumn limited edition, No. 14 mixed fruit drink. Welcome to try it."
Jiang Xiaoning took a look and frowned slightly.
Like his No. 13 limited edition, the No. 14 fruit drink looks ordinary, seems to have energy flowing in it, and is a standard tree fruit mixed drink.
"I wonder how it tastes."
As for the effect of this tree fruit... This kind of street shop uses low-grade tree fruits. It is a miracle to be able to make delicious fruit drinks. It is impossible to ask for too much in terms of effects.
After all, it’s just a small street shop.
"Oh, it's a pity that No. 13 is a summer limited edition. This No. 14...let's try it."
With this thought in mind, I took a sip.
The taste is stimulating, the pineapple aroma is very strong and very refreshing. After another sip, the orange fragrance overflows, with a sweet aftertaste, the third sip, the fourth sip...
When I came back to my senses, the juice glass was empty, I had already finished one glass, and I was full of energy. The fatigue from staying up late for several days to write the paper was gone, and I felt much more energetic.
"This effect! How was it achieved?"
Suddenly he raised his head and looked at the bar. The young man was looking over here with a faint smile.
Jiang Xiaoning didn't know why, but she swallowed the question on her lips, and subconsciously turned her head to look out the window, with a strong fruity aroma still lingering in her mouth.
This boy is only fifteen or sixteen years old, and he doesn’t know what high school he went to.
Ahli seems to be young, maybe a high school student.
I heard that a genius with outrageous theoretical scores was recently admitted to the university, and the hospital even started the review process for admission to the university in advance.
How come these two are so outrageous? Are today’s high school students trying to defy heaven?
Subconsciously, I touched the fruit cup and took a sip...but it was empty.
Put down the empty cup angrily.
"Is it called No. 14 mixed fruit drink? It's so delicious. Bring a few cups for the little ones at home. Well, let's collect ten cups first..." Jiang Xiaoning thought to herself.
At checkout.
"I'm sorry, little sister, my No. 14 mixed drink is a limited edition. Each guest is only provided one cup per day, and no take-out is allowed." Chen Yuan showed a polite smile.
Jiang Xiaoning: "????"
……
I was busy until three o'clock in the afternoon, when the crowds thinned out, and Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"You are quite capable at a young age." Xia Yi handed over the tea and said, "Drink some water. Thanks to the juice you made, I was able to attract so many customers."
"It's all thanks to the Golden Week period." Chen Yuan said modestly.
"But it's you who makes them keep buying again. The Dongxia store is so lucky to have you."
Chen Yuan smiled, he was lucky to be picked up by the store manager, otherwise he might not have been able to survive the winter when he was seven years old.
Xia Yiru, sister, and Donglan, mother, have taken care of Chen Yuan for eighty-nine years. They say they work in a fruit drink shop, but in fact they have already considered this place their home.
I took a sip of tea to moisten my throat, and suddenly found a furry baby bean civet in the corner of the store - a snake-print bear cub.
"Huh? Little raccoon dog."
When the little guy heard Chen Yuan's voice, he immediately waggled his tail, ran over and got into Chen Yuan's arms.
"Tsk, you crawled into my arms after getting muddy in the grass outside." Chen Yuan muttered in disgust, but he still scratched the snake bear's chin lovingly.
Xia Yi looked at this scene and said with a smile: "You two have such a good relationship. If you don't tell others, others won't believe it. This is actually a wild baby snake bear that has not yet been tamed."
"What's wild and domesticated? The little raccoon is our snake bear. It's just a ball."
Chen Yuan smiled and raised the snake-printed bear high, and looked at each other. The little guy's eyes were shining, and his little nose was twitching. It was really cute.
The little raccoon was an abandoned elf from a nearby breeding house. It was said that its color and constitution were poor, so it was thrown away.
Chen Yuan picked it up and kept him in a fruit shop to raise him. When he develops new juices, he always gives them to the little guy to taste first. After repeated visits, the little guy's physical condition has improved, but his body color is still very poor.
Chen Yuan smiled and said: "I've been giving you a month of replenishment, but the color of your hair is still so light. Come on, let's eat a feast of green caterpillars today to replenish your hair."
As soon as it heard that there were insects to eat, the snake bear immediately wagged its tail happily.
"Squeak~"
"But before that, I have to give you a bath to see how dirty you are."
"Squeak, squeak." The snake bear began to struggle and didn't want to take a bath.
Chen Yuan didn't give it a chance to resist: "Sister Xia Yi, I'll leave the store to you."
