Chapter 56 Selling Homemade Preserves

The three of Xiaoxiao followed the shopkeeper of Yipinxuan to a single room in the shop, and sat down in order. The shopkeeper asked, "I don't know what kind of business the little girl is going to do?"

He could tell that this little girl was in charge of the business, and as for the two men, they could be said to be helping, so he asked Mo Xiaoxiao directly.

"Don't be in a hurry, shopkeeper. You can taste the things we brought here first. How about we talk after you have tasted it?" Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows with a smile, and then gave Mo Shengming and Mo Shengming a wink, telling them Give the shopkeeper some candied peaches to try.

As Xiaoxiao's father and brother, Xiaoxiao naturally knew what she was going to do with just one look and one movement, so she immediately put some candied peaches on a borrowed white porcelain plate and put them in front of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper looked at this thing, and he seemed a little shocked. Candied fruit is not so easy to make, and only in the north. The candied fruit in their store was also facilitated by the young master when he went to Kyoto. What's more, there are also the tolls brought over on the road. Although the taste is not bad, there are not many that can be bought in the whole Anyun Town. Now that I see Xiaoxiao making this, it is only good for the appearance, but it is not Know how it tastes.

No matter what, I just took a piece with my hand and put it in my mouth to taste it. Suddenly, a light flashed in his eyes, and the polite smile on the shopkeeper's face was gradually covered up by excitement. After eating, he said excitedly: "Little Girl, did your family really make this by yourself?"

Xiaoxiao nodded, still with a suitable smile on her face, and her nervous heart instantly settled down. The shopkeeper of Pinxuan asked this, and the possibility of success is very high.

"I don't know how the little girl will sell this candied fruit?"

The shopkeeper was excited, but he still knew the rules. After all, if he wanted to discuss this business, he might have to come forward. Although he was the shopkeeper, he still had to report some things to the young master.

"Shopkeeper, as far as I know, candied fruit is not available in this area, right? The candied fruit you sell has to go to the capital to get the goods." Xiaoxiao didn't answer the shopkeeper directly, but took the time to ask the candied fruit by name. There are none in Anyun Town, or even the entire Songnan City. If you don’t have connections and influence, it’s impossible to transport candied fruit from as far away as Kyoto. I’m afraid it’s not something you, the shopkeeper, can do. Bar?

When the shopkeeper heard this, his excited and joyful heart gradually cooled down. He also knew what the little girl meant. She wanted to talk to the owner. It was the young master who made the decision, so he said seriously: "I know what the little girl means, so I will tell our young master, can you and your family wait here for a while?"

"Okay, but please invite the shopkeeper to come here as soon as possible." Xiaoxiao smiled slightly.

The shopkeeper nodded and went out. Not long after, a waiter came in with tea, saying that he was ordered by the shopkeeper to treat them well. Xiaoxiao nodded and said nothing, but Mo Shengming and the two were a little restless Feel.

Xiaoxiao gave them a peaceful smile, and then pushed some refreshments on the table in front of the two of them, "Father, brother, you didn't eat much in the morning, we'll be busy later, so let's take these for the bottom Bar."

"Xiaoxiao, this is not very good, after all, it belongs to someone else..." Mo Shengming said with an uneasy expression.

"Father, it's fine, not to mention they might trouble us now." Xiaoxiao smiled leisurely.

"Then... well then, Brother Tian, ​​let's eat something, so that we don't have time to eat when we get too busy." Mo Shengming said to Mo Yuntian.

Mo Yuntian probably just listened to Xiaoxiao's words and didn't make any excuses. In addition, he didn't eat much in the morning. Now that he saw pastries that he couldn't usually eat, there was no stock in his stomach. Now when he heard Mo Shengming Agreed, took a piece and ate it.

Mo Shengming saw that he was eating so happily, and there was deep guilt in his eyes. If it wasn't for his uselessness, why would he be like this? Alas, fortunately, the family is getting better now, thanks to his wife and children.

Not long after, the shopkeeper came back, led an extremely elegant young man into the study room, and explained to Xiaoxiao and the others: "Little girl, this is our boss, the young master of the Chu family, what can you do with me?" Let's talk at home."

Xiaoxiao looked at the person who came and raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect it to be someone she knew. The world is really small. After hearing the shopkeeper's introduction, Xiaoxiao still smiled appropriately and said, "Master Chu, how are you?" Thinking of seeing you again."

Chu Xuan seemed to feel the same way, "Yeah, what a coincidence." With a voice like a clear spring, those who listened felt like spring breeze in their hearts. "I just heard from Shopkeeper Fang that you have a business to discuss with me. I wonder if there is such a thing?"

When he said this, the gentle and refined feeling seemed to have disappeared, and it was replaced by the sophistication in the mall.This shocked Xiaoxiao a little bit, but it's true, it's not uncommon for young masters like them to start shopping in the mall at a young age, so they restrained their thoughts and said with a serious smile: "It's true, but it's not true. I wonder if Young Master Chu has given us this chance."

Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows, "I don't know what kind of business it is?" In fact, the shopkeeper Fang had already told him on the way here, but he saw this rather interesting little girl at this time, so he saved a special offer. Thoughts, perhaps it is not impossible to help them.

"How about this, how about young master Chu tasting the things we brought first before talking about it?" Xiaoxiao said calmly.

"Okay, then I'd rather be respectful than obedient." After finishing speaking, the servant behind Chu Xuan took out a pair of chopsticks made of white jade and handed it to Chu Xuan, who then used the chopsticks to hold a piece of candied fruit and put it In his mouth, he slowly tasted it.

After tasting this piece, Chu Xuan took another piece and tasted it. He didn't say a word in the middle, and didn't even show a trace of expression, which made Xiaoxiao feel a little depressed.

After a while, Chu Xuan first drank tea to dilute the taste in his mouth, then wiped his mouth symbolically with a handkerchief, and finally said, "How about two taels of silver a catty?"

Xiaoxiao seemed to be taken aback for a moment, then came to her senses, and said with a smile: "Master Chu, the taste of this candied fruit should not be worse than what you sell, and the quality alone is more than what you sell, is it only worth two taels of silver?" Is it?"

A smile flashed in Chu Xuan's amber eyes. The little girl seemed to be losing her composure. Forget it, she might be angry if she continued to tease her, so she moved her thin rose-colored lips and said: "Then I don't know how much the girl is asking for?"

"Master Chu should know that you have spent a lot of money on the travel expenses when purchasing goods from the capital. Compared with purchasing goods from the capital, at least you can save your travel expenses and earn money. This is not beneficial to you but No harm at all." Xiaoxiao said with a smile.
