Not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhong Ziqi's food stall underwent another change.Zhao Zheng'an dislikes the fact that Zhong Ziqi had to work too hard in the sun and wind every day, so he look for him a storefront in town.
[ 風吹日曬 fēng chuī rì shài
(idiom) to be exposed to the elements such as wind and the heat of the sun.]

The storefront is not very big. There is a certain amount of rent per day, Zhong Ziqi approached Zhao Amo and Huang Amo to discuss it so that the three families can rent this storefront together. They can put whatever goodies they have at home into the shop. Each of them can have some space too.
The shop is very close to the pier, so there is no need to worry about losing customers. Besides, there are also a few tables in front of the shop, so every customer can eat there.
Zhao Amo and Huang Amo each went home to think about it. They felt that it was a good idea to follow Qi Ge'er's work. Two families agreed to Zhong Ziqi's proposal.
On the day when they paid the rent, Zhao Amo and Huang Amo went along with them. Then, each paid their own share of the money and rented the shop for a month.Although, it was painful to lose quite a lot of money that they had earned so far. But they felt better when they thought that they would earn more in the future. To achieve a certain purpose one must pay the price, no pains,no gains.

As Uncle Huang was a carpenter, Zhong Ziqi asked him to make a Wooden plaque (that used to hang above a door) and paint it with a bright-colored layer of paint. Then, he wrote the words"相当好吃" (Quite delicious),these 4 words.

Zhao Zheng'an praised him for his good handwriting. He had been working in the city for many years so he could read a lot of words, but if he was asked to write, his writing was like a dog's paw.
As they were always wandering around there, in and out of the shop, everyone soon knew that the best stall on the pier had moved. But luckily, he hadn't moved far away, still near the pier.
When everything was ready, the "Quite tasty"/"相当好吃" , restaurant opened without a hitch. In front of the door, two firecrackers cracked and popped so loudly that both adults and children covered their ears and stayed away.It was only after the firecrackers had been set off that the crowd came over to give Zhong Ziqi their best wishes. Whether it was Huang Amo or Zhao Amo, the people on the pier were all very familiar with them.Each and every one of them congratulated them happily,began to order their favorite food,and ate a big mouthful of food.
Zhong Ziqi was inside the shop, busy frying the chinese breadsticks for sale while Zhao Zheng'an stood at the door to greet customers: "In the future, whoever spends fifteen wen. They have a chance to draw a prize, this prize has a variety of mysterious rewards."
Hearing that, the customer's curiosity was immediately piqued: "What's the reward? Tell us about it."
Zhao Zheng'an put his hands on the man's shoulders, "A mystery prize, of course, you'll only know if you buy it, if I tell you in advance then there will be no surprise."
"Boss, get me ten wen of chinese breadsticks! And a bowl of beancurd jelly? That's enough for fifteen wen, right?" A customer asked in a loud voice.
Zhao Ning brought the food over to him, collected the money and said to wait a moment. He walked away for a while.
