Chapter 58 58. Is anyone really buying it?
Is anyone really buying it?
Aunt Mao Li was dumbfounded.
And...and she came to the market today with a mission!
Of the five handfuls of milkvetch yesterday at noon, I fried only one plate at first, but as soon as I tasted it I couldn’t hold it back and fried all the remaining four handfuls.
Not many people ate the stewed meat at noon, but they ate all the vegetables. But I feel comfortable at noon, but not at night!
My granddaughter Song Ziyi came back from the art class in the afternoon and saw that there was no food on the table from brother Qiaoqiao, and she cried at that time.
Don’t look at the eldest aunt talking about "you must have roots" and "you must have grandchildren" every day, but she dare not tell her daughter-in-law this.
And the granddaughter is also the treasure of the whole family. How can she bear to cry now?
The family tried their best to coax her and promised to eat it tomorrow. This was considered a relief.
The daughter-in-law then said: "Mom, you should also go to the vegetable market tomorrow. It's rare for Ziyi to like my relatives, so it's okay to take care of the business more."
Turn around and ask Uncle Song:< br>
“Dad, how much did Tantan say a pound of this dish cost today?”
Uncle Song remembered Qiao Qiao’s mention of twenty, but in his eyes, it grew out of the ground. How can something be this price?
So he answered without hesitation: "How many yuan? It seems like two yuan?"
Mao Li said "tsk": "It's because young people have so many ideas. We used to feed pigs, but now we can still make money."
But she felt comfortable: "You can't make much money with this busy work in one day. Forget it, I'll buy another five pounds tomorrow."
The family made a lot of calculations, but when they arrived at Song Tan's place, the starting price was twenty yuan. One kilogram will make the eldest aunt break her guard.
They are all relatives, and Song Tan has no intention of falling out with them because of this matter - you have to take care of Comrade Song's face, right?
So I put on the standard smiley face again:
"Auntie, why don't you go and have a look elsewhere? I'm closing the stall here."
But I haven't bought it yet - Mao Li stood there, thinking of her granddaughter's wailing. , and the extremely expensive vegetable prices, making it even more uncomfortable.
After much thought, she turned around and said:
“Forget it, my relatives, it’s not easy for you kids to start a business, just twenty, give me a pound.”
While looking into the basket, he said, "Tantan, you can't give me a bad education, otherwise I will have to ask your parents how they raised you."
< br>
Song Tanxin said that she had been selling vegetables for a few months, but this was the first time she saw her relatives causing trouble!
Besides, she just said they were sold out.
Qiao Qiao had already picked up all the baskets and said loudly: "It's sold out!"
"Why is it sold out?"
The eldest aunt pointed at the basket. Inside: "Don't you still have a few more? My aunt has given you money, why don't you still want it?"
However, Qiaoqiao shook his furry head and refused to sell vegetables to people he didn't like. He was very happy and spoke in a cheerful tone:
"No, no, I have to give those to my aunt! ”
Mao Li felt distressed at that time.
“Twenty yuan a pound, how much do you give away?”
That’s right—Song Tan even wondered how she got here after so many years?
She looked over with a half-smile: "Auntie, I gave so much to your family. I can't give five catties to my father's brothers and four catties to my mother's sisters, right?"
Rao Yes If Mao Li had a belly, it would be stuck in her throat now.
But the taste of the dish yesterday... She showed a kind smile again: "You kid, what are you talking about! Am I the kind of unreasonable person?"
"The main reason is Ziyi. She insists on eating the food Qiaoqiao sent. As you know, children are not sensible - otherwise, you can give it to me today."
< br>
"Isn't your aunt a relative of ours? I'll just give her some supplies tomorrow."
Song Tan burst into laughter, and really didn't save any face: "Then I'll give you four as a gift today? Will you give me another handful tomorrow? Is this ginseng or wild vegetables? "
"Auntie, since Ziyi likes to eat it, I will give you the favor, or you can give me the rest. Buy them all, or don’t care how much I give to my aunt.”
Can Mao Li be willing to spend a hundred yuan on these worthless wild vegetables?
That is absolutely impossible.
Besides, she was scolded by a junior in front of her, and everyone in the vegetable market was watching the excitement, so where could she put her face?
The eldest aunt rolled her eyes, her face darkened:
"Tantan, your uncle and I have been in the city for so many years, and we have a lot of connections, and I am thinking of introducing you to someone. What a good partner! Is this what you did to us?”
“Forget it, if it’s not for the sake of relatives, who would pay for it?”
As he said that, he turned around and left angrily.
Song Tan also had a serious expression on his face - he was so sorry that all the customers were gone.
Otherwise, if she said this in front of everyone, she would probably slap her on the spot.
So I raised my voice: "Auntie, if you really hate it, just spit out what you ate yesterday."
Auntie paused for a moment, and then banged her boots. Bang walked faster.
As soon as she left, the vegetable vendor next door came over with a smile on his face, and then said coquettishly: "What about that, bring more tomorrow morning, I want five pounds."
< br>
As he said that, he quickly stuffed a hundred dollars into it, just like a thief.
Song Tan's mind was clear: "How about it? Is this food delicious?"
The vegetable seller nodded reluctantly: "Is the soil and water in your hometown so good? No. Are you considering growing some other vegetables?”
Song Tan thought: “Yes, it’s not the season yet, so I’m too lazy to bother with the greenhouse. Let’s talk about it next month—what vegetables do you sell here every day? Is the market better?"
The vegetable seller glanced at her and sighed: "You can grow milkvetch to get this flavor, so what kind of varieties do you have to worry about? You can sell whatever you grow. Worry about people buying it.”
Song Tan never expected that among this group of clients, the one who had the most confidence in her was actually this colleague!
She was also very moved: "Okay, I'm just telling you this, when new vegetables are on the market, I will give you a chance to jump in line!"
The vegetable seller rolled his eyes: " I set up a stall next to you every day, do I still need to jump in line?”
He didn’t take this seriously. Anyway, he bought all the food and lost his temper, so he might as well sell it again:< br>
"By the way, if you sell vegetables here every day, you might as well find someone to rent a fixed stall - see? There are fixed stalls in the marked area and inside the shed. Are you coming? It’s all yours, no matter the wind, sun or rain.”
"Your food is more expensive and your profit is higher than ours. If you have a stall, you won't suffer a loss. If there weren't too few stalls here and you have to find someone to help you, I would have done it long ago."
Song Tan had an idea about the stall inside, but now the vegetable sales were not large enough, so he thought about putting it off.
Now after listening to the advice, he joked:
“Oh, it’s been a long time, brother, you have been selling vegetables for seven or eight years, and you are still setting up a stall illegally?”
< br> Come on, come on! First update on the shelves!
