Chapter 116 Stealing Business

“Our steamed buns are not only fresh and clean, but also cheap and full of fillings.”

"We are engaged in long-term business, unlike some people who are engaged in one-time business and use stale pork to fool everyone. Thick-flour steamed buns and plain steamed buns cost a penny each, and white-flour steamed buns cost three cents..."

Chen Liu was shouting, and the worker who bought Chen Wang's steamed buns yesterday immediately asked:

"Madam, what do you mean by this? Are you saying that the meat the lady used yesterday was stale meat?"

Before Chen Liu could answer, the man who had eaten Chen Wang's meat buns said, "That shouldn't be the case. I ate yesterday's meat buns, and I even ate two. The meat was quite fresh and fragrant. The aunt said she What kind of bacon was added to it?”

As soon as the man mentioned bacon, Mrs. Chen Liu immediately said: "Hey, it's that bacon. That bacon was meat from years ago. Tell me, can you still eat it now? It's meat that's more than ten years old. You can only believe it." she."

The man continued to retort: ​​"But the buns don't smell bad, and the meat is very fragrant. How can there be a problem?"

The worker next to the man saw that Mrs. Chen Wang had not come yet, and was a little doubtful, so he said: "Forget it, forget it, I have been busy all morning and I am hungry. I don't know if the lady will come yesterday, so I won't wait for now." , when you’re full, go in and get to work.”

With that said, the worker bought five meat buns from Chen Liu's.

The ten cents he originally paid was for four meat buns ordered from Chen Wang, but now he can buy five. In fact, he is more willing to buy the cheaper ones.

After all, I can eat one more big meat bun no matter what.

But after he took a bite, he realized something was wrong, "No, aunt, did you bring me the wrong bun? What I wanted was a meat bun, and what you brought me was a vegetable bun, right?"

Chen Liu explained with a smile: "Young man, you got it right. I used the freshest pork. Think about how expensive fresh pork is now. A meat bun costs two cents. I can't be filled with bread." Meat, right?”

The worker suddenly felt a little tricked and said with a dissatisfied look on his face: "But you are too deceptive. What is the difference between this little bit of meat and plain steamed buns?"

Chen Liu: "Young man, how can this be called cheating? I am doing a conscientious business. If I use stale meat like some people do, I can also give you a big bun full of meat fillings. I bought this meat from the town before dawn. It’s better to have less meat than to have a bad stomach, don’t you think so?”

When Chen Liu said this, the workers who didn't know her as a person naturally believed her, and even felt that there was some truth in it.

The worker thought about it and stopped arguing.

But the man who ordered four meat buns yesterday was still hesitant to buy them.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Mrs. Chen Liu asked with a smile: "Young man, what are you still hesitating about? If you hesitate any longer, the buns will be gone."

The cripple Chen Youcai also echoed after helping to sell the steamed buns: "Even if you want meat buns now, the meat buns are gone. Now there are only thick-wheat steamed buns. If you wait a little longer, there will be no thick-wheat steamed buns."

Because everyone saw that they could buy hot steamed buns at the entrance of the workshop yesterday, most people did not bring anything to eat from home today. They were all waiting for Mrs. Chen Wang to come over to sell steamed buns and buy steamed buns to eat.

As a result, Mrs. Chen Wang didn't come, and another Mrs. Chen Liu came, and everyone bought from her. Basically, they bought several pieces at a time.

Mrs. Chen Liu prepared more than 600 steamed buns today, and all of them were sold out. At this time, she was smiling from ear to ear.

From this business today, she can earn at least half a tael of silver. How can she not laugh?

And just when the man was about to open his mouth and buy two steamed buns, he turned around and saw the mother and son of Chen Wang and her son pushing a trolley.

"Hey, isn't that the aunt who sold steamed buns yesterday?" As he said this, the man turned to look at Wang Chen and asked, "Didn't the aunt just say that they won't come today? Are you lying to us?"

The man can see it. But who is Mrs. Chen Liu? How could she admit such a thing? So she laughed and said: "Why do you call me lying to you? What I just said was the truth, and I also thought about you. This is not new. If you eat too much meat, what will happen if you get a bad stomach?"

When she said this, everyone who didn't understand the situation nodded and thought it made sense.

Mrs. Chen Wang took the opportunity to continue: "You have found a job with great difficulty. If you have a bad stomach, you will not come to work. If you don't come to work, your wages will be deducted. Then you will not be the ones who suffer. I will Do I need to lie to you? Okay, young man, I’ve sold out all these buns. If you can trust me, we’ll go back early tomorrow.”

After saying that, Mrs. Chen Liu packed up her things and hurriedly left.

She seemed to be sure that Mrs. Chen Wang would cause trouble for her. In order not to lose the so-called 'credibility' in front of the co-workers, Mrs. Chen Liu reminded her eldest son: "Let's go down the path."

Chen Youcai naturally understood the truth of being a thief with a guilty conscience, so he walked towards the path while holding on to his cart.

Mrs. Chen Wang on the road above looked puzzled: "Why are the people over there in the second room still hiding from us today?"

Chen Yousheng: "Are they guilty of being thieves?"

Chen Wang suddenly understood, "Are they selling steamed buns too?"

"So, they also threw the cow dung eggs just now? Just to prevent us from going out."

"This Mrs. Chen Liu is a damned person. I'll see if I don't tear her apart."

With that said, Mrs. Chen Wang rolled up her sleeves and wanted to rush over and tear Mrs. Chen Liu apart.

Seeing this, Chen Yousheng hurriedly said: "Mom, go sell the buns first. We are already late. We will wait until the buns are sold out."

As soon as she talked about selling steamed buns, Chen Wang immediately calmed down.

"Yes, yes, yes, let's go sell the buns first."

With that said, the mother and son walked towards the entrance of the workshop.

"Everyone is just waiting. There was a little accident when we went out just now. There are a lot of buns today, so we can all have whatever fillings we want."

After saying this, Mrs. Chen Wang waited for everyone to gather around to buy buns. In the end, only the big man from yesterday and a few workers who had not bought buns just came to buy some.

Looking at this, there is nothing else Chen Wang doesn’t understand.

The man believed that he must have been deceived by the lady just now, so he made the same order and bought four big meat buns.

After he took a bite, he asked Mrs. Chen Wang: "Auntie, what kind of bacon was added to your meat yesterday? Is it last year's meat?"

Mrs. Chen Wang said this because she didn't understand. Naturally, she answered whatever the other person asked her. She nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong, young man?"

As soon as this was said, everyone immediately exploded.

"Sure enough, what the lady said just now is actually true."

"Auntie, how can you do this? Last year's meat, stale meat, you just put in your buns, and it's so expensive. Doesn't your conscience hurt if you do this?"

"You are really planning to make a one-time deal."
