Chapter 156 Zongzi Making Competition
The venue for the competition was located in the open space in front of Su Xiaoxiao's workshop. On this day, early on this day, some people from the next village who came to watch the excitement took their seats. The tables and chairs were set up on the venue and everything was arranged. When Su Xiaoxiao saw that the competition time was coming, she ordered people to bring up all the ingredients for making rice dumplings. After these raw materials were brought up, everyone began to get excited.
There had never been such an event in the village, and they had never heard of such an event.
Most of the contestants participating in the competition are employees in the workshops. They are usually women. Perhaps because they do not celebrate the Zongzi Festival often, they do not know much about the techniques of making Zongzi.
However, everyone is very motivated. Sometimes Su Xiaoxiao wants to go out in person to help everyone wrap bags. She feels that her wrapping techniques are more sophisticated than these people.
As the steward, Mrs. Sun announced the prizes for the top three in the rice dumpling competition. The prize for the first place was two hundred cents, the prize for the second place was one hundred cents, and the prize for the third place was fifty cents. Money.
Everyone showed great enthusiasm and cheered constantly at the game. They didn’t want their families to lose the game.
Li Zheng was also watching at the scene, and the wrinkles on his face relaxed with a smile. This competition also made the villagers feel that the employees in Su Xiaoxiao's jam workshop are harmonious, everyone is friendly, and they are united and progressive. This kind of working atmosphere is actually very good, and it can also infect some people around you.
After fierce competition, Su Xiaoxiao and Li Zheng, as judges of this competition, scored the scores.
The top three in the competition not only get money, but also rice dumpling points.
In the end, Su Xiaoxiao was also very generous and distributed all the rice dumplings made by everyone to the audience.
Some poor families, as well as lonely elderly people, Su Xiaoxiao gave them more, which was regarded as caring for them. For this, Li Zheng was very grateful to Su Xiaoxiao, and felt that Su Xiaoxiao was a very generous person.
Everyone spent a very happy Dragon Boat Festival in a happy atmosphere.
Pei Yuan has always been by Su Xiaoxiao's side, watching Su Xiaoxiao busy. Although Su Xiaoxiao can't make rice dumplings for him alone, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy together. Now he can not only eat what Su Xiaoxiao makes, but also eat in the village. Someone gave him rice dumplings, what a wonderful thing.
You can't be so stingy as a person, you must be more generous.
After the Dragon Boat Festival, Qian Musheng returned from the capital.
He brought back good news and bad news.
The good news is that the jams exported to foreign countries have been improved. The bad news is that Su Xiaoxiao's jams are said to have fake brands.
The location is in a relatively large grocery store in the capital, called Tianji Grocery Store. This store is said to specialize in selling Baihuacun brand orange jam, and it feels like it is the exclusive agent. This makes Su Xiaoxiao so angry that she is almost smoking.
She didn't care so much, she was going to the capital right away.
After getting on the carriage, Su Xiaoxiao handed over all the household matters to Pei Yuan.
Although Pei Yuan also wanted to follow, Su Xiaoxiao persuaded him to stay and told him to keep it at home, as there were two children at home for him to take care of.
It cannot be said that there is any room for error or negotiation in this matter.
Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng drove to the capital together. When they walked there, it was almost dark.
After the two people found out the address of Tianji Grocery Store, they didn't expect that it was located next to the pier and had a large flow of customers, mainly for people from other countries who often traveled here.
So naturally this influence is quite large. If everyone believes that Baihua Village's jam is produced by them, wouldn't all Su Xiaoxiao's previous efforts be in vain?
She wanted to export the jam smoothly to other countries, but she couldn't do it. Even though it's dark here, there are still some tourists passing by queuing up to buy jam.
The waiter standing at the door was very arrogant.
It seems as if these customers are begging him to buy, but this person is also cheap. The more his attitude is, the more those people think the things here are good, but in fact, the goods sold here are all fakes.
These tourists don't know what's going on, so they all buy it, so please be happy.
Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng waited in line for a long time before they were able to buy a total of ten bottles of jam. Because the regulations here require that the minimum sales must be ten bottles. Su Xiaoxiao noticed that although this store is a grocery store, However, the other goods were very old and dusty, as if no one had bought them for a long time.
The rest of the jams on display were all jams. After the two people bought the jams, they opened all ten bottles of jams. When they tasted them, they all tasted the same, but the bottles couldn't be consistent.
Could it be that the recipe for this jam was stolen? Su Xiaoxiao felt her scalp numb when she thought of this.
She never thought that her jam recipe would be stolen. It seemed that this matter must be investigated to the end.
Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng discussed how to go back to the jam workshop to catch the mole. They were very confused as to why there was a mole in their jam workshop.
Qian Musheng said to Su Xiaoxiao: "Let's go back and rest first. It's late today and there's no point in spending any more time here."
Just as they were talking, a very sneaky person appeared in front of the two of them. He ran out from the corner and almost hit Su Xiaoxiao.
Qian Musheng quickly pulled Su Xiaoxiao over and into his arms. Su Xiaoxiao felt Qian Musheng's heart beating very fast.
At this time, Su Xiaoxiao smelled that Qian Musheng seemed to have a natural body fragrance. What it smelled like, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't tell, but it just smelled good.
There was a group of thugs and bodyguards behind the man, who looked very untouchable.
"Be careful when you walk."
The voice was so familiar. When Su Xiaoxiao looked back, she realized that those people had gone away.
However, Su Xiaoxiao still felt that she had heard this voice somewhere, and it seemed to be from the same village as them.
"No. What's going on?"
Su Xiaoxiao kept watching those people walk into Tianji Grocery Store.
Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng glanced at each other.
The two men followed them secretly until they reached the door of Tianji Grocery Store. When the boy saw the two men coming, he waved away the others who were still queuing up to buy jam.
He asked these people to come back tomorrow and queue up to buy things, and then let the two of them into Tianji Grocery Store. At this time, Su Xiaoxiao looked at the back and felt familiar.
Why does that bare head look so much like Liu Datou from their village?
And isn’t the person next to Liu Datou his uncle Scarface?
