Chapter 120 Business Opening (Part [-])

Under Xiong Qingshan's perseverance, Lin Xiu finally talked to him: "Didn't you say that you still want to go to the county? Why don't you go?"

Xiong Qingshan: "..."

His expression was a bit resentful, "You want me to go out so much?"

Lin Xiu didn't make a sound, just stared at Xiong Qingshan, Xiong Qingshan helplessly stroked his forehead, and said, "Okay, I'll go get the car right now."

As Xiong Qingshan said, he turned and went to the yard to get the car.

Obviously yesterday he was the one who first said that he would go to the county to sell some lo mei to try, but now, he doesn't want to go, if it wasn't for yesterday that he couldn't control his mouth and made Lin Xiu angry, how could there be such things thing?

Xiong Qingshan checked himself, seeing that the car was covered, he went to the kitchen again, took out the lo mei, and went back to the room to get the money bag.This money bag was prepared by Lin Xiu yesterday, although she was angry, she still put some copper plates and silver into it when she came back from the kitchen, and left it to Xiong Qingshan for change today.

Xiong Qingshan harnessed the car, drove the car to the door, and looked back reluctantly, seeing Lin Xiu standing in the yard looking at him, he finally felt a little more at ease, his mouth moved, and finally he only said : "I'll buy you some snacks after selling the money."

"You don't need to buy dim sum, let's save the money you earn."

"Saving money doesn't delay eating." Lin Xiu replied, and Xiong Qingshan's heart opened up. He smiled and told Lin Xiu to close the door and go back to the room. Then he waved his whip and drove the ox cart to the county town .

Looking at his back, Lin Xiu sighed and closed the door. She took out the quilts, dried them one by one, and went to tidy up the kitchen.

……

When Xiong Qingshan drove the car to the county seat, it was already half an hour. He turned to Wang's house first, and saw that the door of Wang's house was locked as he thought, so he took out the key Wang Qing gave him earlier, opened the door, and entered the room After putting some lo mei in, he parked the car in the yard, then picked up the burden, locked the door and went out.

He also brought this shoulder pole from home. Since he planned to walk around the streets, it was inconvenient to drive a car, so he found out the shoulder pole that had been stored for a long time, and put the car in Wang's house. Put it in the frame, and then picked it out of the Wang family's gate.

The Wang family is in a residential area, and most of the people in this area are the county government servants who have errands. The families of these people are generous in spending money. Xiong Qingshan went out of the Wang family's door and started selling: "Selling lo mei! Freshly made lo mei, delicious and cheap! Selling lo mei—"

It was half an hour at this moment, although some people were not at home, but the elderly, or women who did not go to work were all at home. They were starching and washing clothes at home, when suddenly they heard the sound of hawking outside, Some families were a little richer, or those with a little more money, opened the door and saw a tall and strong young man carrying a pole in the street outside, so they knew that this was the one who sold the lo-mei. Someone stood at the door and asked : "How do you sell lo mei?"

Xiong Qingshan stopped, looked towards the source of the sound, and replied, "The price of different things is different, what does eldest sister want?"

The woman who asked first became interested, "What's in your lo mei?"

Xiong Qingshan put the load on and replied: "There are good meat and offal, and there are also chicken feet and necks."

"How do you sell good meat?" The woman said, she walked out of the door, walked to the side of Xiong Qingshan's burden, and looked at the sour-colored things in the burden.

"Good meat is the most expensive, fifteen cents a catty."

"Fifteen Wen?!" The woman screamed, "Why is it so expensive? I can buy a catty of meat for only ten Wen per catty."

Xiong Qingshan, who started a business, also restrained his violent temper, and said: "Fresh meat can only be sold after slaughtering animals, but this stewed meat is not the same. Doesn’t it take a lot of work? Sister, you always have to give me some hard-earned money. If not, why should I still be in this business if I don’t make any money?”

The woman pursed her lips and said: "The hard work must be worth it. Can you afford the hard work of five cents?"

"The money for hard work is not worth five cents, and there is still material money." Xiong Qingshan said, pinching a small piece of meat and handing it over, "Taste it first, I think it tastes good."

The woman took it and tasted it, she only took a bite, and her eyes lit up instantly, but she still said: "It's more expensive, if you give me a cheaper one, I'll buy it for twelve cents a catty." .”

Xiong Qingshan did not give in: "Fifteen cents is not enough for me to earn, so why do you bother with me, big sister?"

The woman held on to Xiong Qingshan and bargained for a while, seeing that Xiong Qingshan hadn't let go, she said: "All right, all right, then you weigh a catty for me."

Xiong Qingshan responded, quickly picked up the meat with chopsticks and weighed it, the woman said again: "You see, I bought it all, will you spare me some water?"

Xiong Qingshan has never seen such a woman who can bargain, so he said helplessly: "Let me spare you a chicken paw, if there are too many, I can't give you any more."

Although the woman was a little disappointed, she also knew that the man in front of her was not a good bargainer, so she agreed, let's just have one, the left and right are free, and it doesn't cost her money.

Xiong Qingshan weighed a catty of stewed meat for the woman, showed her the scale, and added a chicken foot to it, then wrapped it in oiled paper and handed it to the woman.

The woman took it, counted out fifteen Wen, and happily turned around and went home with the paper bag.

……

The woman and the man are servants of the county government, and there is no old man at home, only two young children, so this woman is more willing to spend money than ordinary people, and her greed is also found on this street. It's famous, therefore, when she saw that she had actually bought lo mei, two of the women came to the street with the door blocked, and said to Xiong Qingshan, "How do you sell it?"

They are not like the woman's house, there are parents-in-law to serve, and most of the money is in the hands of the mother-in-law. They are reluctant to buy expensive ones. If the water is cheaper, they will buy some water to satisfy their greed.

"It's nine cents a catty for water, and the same price for chicken feet and necks."

Offal is not a good thing, except for those who love it, few people will buy it specially, and therefore, Xiong Qingshan's offal is a few pennies cheaper than good meat.

Nine cents a catty is a bit expensive, the woman who asked the question was still a bit reluctant, but another woman said: "Weigh a catty for me, and spare me a chicken paw?"

"Okay." Xiong Qingshan said, grabbing the water on the other side.

The woman who was the first to ask the question finally made up her mind: "Weigh me half a catty, maybe spare a chicken paw?"

"No, only if you buy one catty or more will you be free. But if you give me six cents, I will give you an extra claw." Xiong Qingshan flatly refused.

The woman was a little disappointed, she thought for a moment, and finally said: "That's it, you put some chicken feet and chicken necks on me."

Xiong Qingshan didn't care about this, he first weighed the catty of water, and after receiving the money, he weighed it for the woman.

 Woohoo, I was so sad that I couldn't attend full time last month. Later, I found out that there were too many chapters with too many words. Could it be that they were deleted?
