Rebirth of the Charming Girl in Space

Chapter 253:

Preliminary Ideas

Murong Kuan tied the forks in Murong Zhe's hands. Murong Lingran saw that they were ready and quickly cut the cake into triangular pieces, placing them on plates. She then inserted the homemade wooden forks and brought them to their respective family members.

Although she had quite a bit of cream from the 21st century in her space, this time she decided not to use cream on the cake. After all, she made the cake flour herself, and if the taste wasn't good, it would be a waste.

Murong Lingran looked hopeful. "Father, brothers, try the taste and see if it's delicious."

Murong Zhe had already tasted it last time, so he wasn't in a hurry.

Instead of eating first, he examined the cake in front of him. He felt that compared to the last time, it seemed a bit rougher, and the color was also somewhat different.

He speared a small piece and put it in his mouth, carefully savoring it. Although there were some differences in taste compared to last time, it was still sweet and not far off.

Murong Zong and brothers had been smelling an unfamiliar fragrance since a while ago, arousing their appetites. Seeing Father start, they quickly picked up their forks and began to enjoy.

"It's good, delicious," Murong Zong exclaimed pleasantly.

"It's really tasty, so fragrant," Murong Xuan also praised.

Murong Kuan, being the youngest, had no sense of dignity when eating. "It's so delicious, A’Ran, when did you learn to make this?"

Murong Lingran, feeling a bit embarrassed, touched her nose and smiled, "It's a secret."

Having said that, she sat down and began to eat her own portion.

After finishing, seeing that everyone was still very much enjoying it, Murong Lingran looked expectant. "Father, brothers, tell me the truth, how is this cake? Don't be afraid to hurt my feelings; just tell me the truth."

Although she thought it tasted good.

Murong Zhe, who spoiled his daughter, would not mind even if she served him burnt food. He smiled and said, "A’Ran's skills are very good, and it's delicious."

Murong Zong also added, "Indeed, very tasty. But..."

"But what?"

"Big Brother likes sweets. If it could be a bit sweeter, it would be better."

Murong Xuan and Murong Kuan also agreed, "That's right."

"Is this the only criticism?"

"Yes." Murong Zong nodded.

"Cough." Murong Zhe cleared his throat, feeling a bit uneasy. "You young people might like it a bit sweeter, but I'm getting older, and I think the sweetness is just right."

Murong Lingran immediately laughed. It seemed that she had succeeded, making it worthwhile after all the hard work these days.

Since she could make it with materials from Xuanqing Country, that made things easier.

However, relying solely on her was not enough to start a business. For example, beating the eggs required a lot of time and hands, and there was also the issue of a storefront.

To avoid incidents like being driven out by the Gao family, renting a house was impossible, never possible. After all, the taste of relying on others and being at the mercy of others was very uncomfortable.

In Jingcheng, where every inch of land was precious, if the rent was too high, she could only wait for some time or think of another way.

After making up her mind, Murong Lingran planned to share her initial thoughts.

Murong Zhe was surprised. "A’Ran, do you want to sell this cake? Specifically targeting wealthy families?"

"Yes." Murong Lingran nodded. "Father, brothers, I think selling vegetables doesn't require too much of our energy. If we give orders, the villagers will be eager to help us. We should think of other ways to earn more money."
