Time Travel: My Wife Is Busy in Farming

Chapter 36 Selling Jam
  In fact, Mrs. Sun has always been worried that the price set by Tang Xiaoman is relatively high, and it cannot be said that it cannot be sold.

But Sun had also tasted this jam, and it was indeed unusual.

Besides, this sweet food is not only loved by adults, but also by children.

Marmalade can be drunk with water or eaten with other pastries. It really has a unique flavor.

After everything was set up, Tang Xiaoman said to Mrs. Sun: "Sister Sun, help me look at it here first. I will take these canned orange jams to some grocery stores around to see if they are willing to help. Can I sell it?"

"to make!"

Sun admired Tang Xiaoman very much and felt that Tang Xiaoman's head was really spinning very fast.

Tang Xiaoman specially picked some places where rich people were willing to go, and found a big store nearby.

"Lee Kee Grocery Store"

Tang Xiaoman lowered his head and asked Su Pingan, "What do you think of this store?"

It was also the first time for Su Ping'an to come to the market here. He nodded and said, "Okay, let's go in and give it a try!"

After the two of them went in together, they discovered that there were a lot of goods sold inside, and the styles were also very complete. But the price is very high. After all, it is a place frequented by rich people.

There was a middle-aged man in front of the counter, who seemed to be the shopkeeper. He put away the abacus in his hand and hurriedly came over to say hello to Tang Xiaoman and Su Pingan.

Tang Xiaoman spoke first: "You two gentlemen, I wonder what you need to buy when you come to our store?"

Tang Xiaoman came directly and said: "I don't want to buy anything! We are here because we have something in hand and want to put it on consignment with you!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the shopkeeper looking at Tang Xiaoman and then at Su Pingan.

He found that these two people were wearing extremely ordinary clothes. At first glance, they looked like country people, and the accompanying smiles on their faces disappeared in an instant.

"Go out, if you don't want to buy anything, what are you doing here? It's taking up my time!"

Su Ping'an, who was behind Tang Xiaoman, saw this person being so rude, and he was ready to come over and help Tang Xiaoman speak.

After Tang Xiaoman stopped him, he continued to say to the shopkeeper: "Can you take a look at the goods first and then say yes? If it's not good, you can drive us away!"

"Okay, shut up! What do country people like you know? Are you watching? Do you know that our store is the largest grocery store in this town, and all the people who come to buy things from us are dignitaries? . Do you think your things can be appreciated by those rich people?"

Su Ping'an clenched his fists behind Tang Xiaoman. If his legs were not injured, he would probably jump up and hit someone right now.

But this man really has a bad mouth, and Tang Xiaoman is actually quite angry. But it seems that this kind of thing happened not only in the past, but also in today's society. There are many people who like to look down on others.

Tang Xiaoman didn't say anything, just pushed Su Ping'an and left the house.

They saw that there was another store opposite this one, but that store was relatively deserted.

However, the shopkeeper of this store is so sharp-tongued and seems to be very difficult to get along with, so I'd better take him down. The same goes for another store.

After being humiliated just now, Tang Xiaoman did not show any displeasure. Instead, he comforted Su Ping'an with a smile and said, "Don't worry, the owner of this store will regret it sooner or later. When our marmalade becomes a big seller, He came crying and begging me!”

Su Ping'an didn't expect that Tang Xiaoman would have such confidence. Arriving at the door of the store opposite, the two found that the store was indeed a little deserted.

The boss was sitting outside basking in the sun at this time, but with a sad look on his face.

"What do you two need to buy?"

Tang Xiaoman and Su Ping'an entered the store and saw that the items in this store were similar to those across the street. The varieties were very complete, but not many people came to the store. They didn't know why.

Tang Xiaoman asked bluntly: "With all due respect, boss, why is the business in your store so bad!"

The boss sighed and said: "In fact, some people in the store opposite are familiar with the government officials. Every time someone comes to our store to buy something, they will be threatened by the officials! As time goes by, they will no longer come!"

It can be seen that this boss is a tough guy. He just doesn't like to flatter those officials, which is why the business in his store is so bad.

"Our store can't last a few more days anyway. If you like anything, just buy it and I'll sell it to you at a cheap price!"

Tang Xiaoman really didn't expect that the boss was so bad that he wanted to end the business.

"Shopkeeper, I have a plan that can help your store come back to life immediately!"

When the shopkeeper heard this, his eyes lit up. This man's surname was Zhang. He was from this town and his family was originally an official. Unexpectedly, his family fell into decline and now he can only make a living by running a grocery store.

In fact, most people who are officials or students have a kind of character, that is, they don't like the flatterers in the officialdom. That's why their families are in decline.

At this moment, Shopkeeper Zhang's eyes lit up. He looked at the two people in front of him, and his eyes immediately dimmed again.

Tang Xiaoman and Su Pingan are both ordinary country people dressed in ordinary clothes. How could they have any good ideas?
  "Oh, I thank you both for your kindness, but..."

Tang Xiaoman was not angry either. She knew that shopkeeper Zhang did not think highly of them, so she said bluntly: "Shopkeeper, I am confident that putting this thing on consignment in your shop will definitely bring your shop back to life! "

After Tang Xiaoman took out the small bottle of orange jam, Boss Zhang's eyes were instantly attracted.

Isn’t this little white porcelain bottle so pretty? Tang Xiaoman opened the bottle cap again, and a refreshing fruity smell came out.

At this time, Tang Xiaoman took out a small bowl from his backpack, scooped out a spoonful of orange jam and handed it to Boss Zhang.

"Try it!"

After Boss Zhang took the orange jam, he put it in his mouth and took a sip. Suddenly, his eyes lit up even more when he saw it, "This jam is very delicious! Madam, how did you do it?"

Tang Xiaoman smiled mysteriously and said, "Well, this is our family's ancestral secret recipe, we can't share it!"

Shopkeeper Zhang's face darkened in the blink of an eye, "Oh, actually you have also seen that we have no customers at all. Even if your jam is good, no one knows about it, and no one comes to buy it!"

"Boss Zhang, you still don't have confidence. I believe that as long as you are willing to give us a chance, this matter will definitely succeed!"

There is no common sense on this matter, how do you know it won't work?
  Tang Xiaoman persuaded Boss Zhang, and Boss Zhang was very happy and agreed.

Tang Xiaoman gave Boss Zhang another pack of loose ones and told him: "This pack of orange jam is a gift from me. Customers who come to your store can give it a try for free. I believe that ten Nine out of every customer likes to eat the marmalade I make! I have this confidence!"
