Chapter 16
The Yun family has been moving a lot these past few days, coming in and going out, and the villagers naturally noticed their movements. Someone asked them curiously what they were doing, but the Yun family kept their mouths shut in a rare tacit understanding. Did not say outside.

What a joke, what if other people know that they have robbed their business?They don't want the money that should have gone into their own pockets to be earned by others.

Three days later, all the things that should be prepared are almost ready. The combined quantity of Shanlihong and wooden sticks is enough to sell for at least two or three days. Without Luo Jinxiu taking the initiative to collect them, the old lady Li Shuxiu couldn't help urging: "Quickly put the candied haws on the skewers. Make it and sell it in the town! If there is not enough, the family will continue to pick it! While selling it, continue to prepare, don’t delay the family to make money!"

Of course Luo Jinxiu had no objection, and she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to go to the town quickly.

Before dawn, the old lady Li Shuxiu knocked on the door of Yun Jinghao's hut, and the rest of the female family members also got up together, or helped to light the fire, or were busy making the skewered mountain red coated with sugar solution. Next to Jinxiu, she stared at the number of candied haws.

After working for half an hour, a total of one hundred bunches of candied haws were finished, and they were inserted on the wooden sticks wrapped in straw prepared in advance.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was wandering outside the village, Li Shuxiu hurriedly urged Yun Jinghao, Luo Jinxiu, and Mrs. Wang to leave the village with a bunch of candied haws.

The nearest town to Shangxi Village is called Xinglin Town. On weekdays, people in the village would go to Xinglin Town if they need to buy or sell. The town is about half an hour away from Shangxi Village by bullock cart, or a full hour on foot.

When the three of them arrived in Xinglin Town, it was already midnight, and there were many pedestrians coming and going in the town, and various small vendors on the street had already started their small business.

This is the first time that Luo Jinxiu has left Shangxi Village and came to a larger place after coming to this world. He inevitably looked around, and soon found that although Xinglin Town does not look very prosperous, the flow of people is really high. Not a lot.

Yun Jinghao looked at her, thinking that she didn't understand because she didn't go out often before, so he explained in a low voice: "There are seven or eight villages around Xinglin Town, and the villagers of each village usually go to the town to buy things. There will be small gatherings every Monday, Thursday, and July, and there will be big gatherings on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, when there will be more people.”

Wang, who also rarely made a trip, said shrewdly: "If there are big and small collections, our candied haws will definitely make more money!"

Luo Jinxiu was noncommittal. It is true that there are more people in the market and the small vendors can earn more, but that will be a matter of later. Today is their first day of making a living. The most important thing is to find a suitable trading stall.

It is not difficult to set up a small business in Xinglin Town, as long as you pay a stall fee of five cents a day, and find a place on the street that is unoccupied and will not hinder the business of shops on both sides, there will naturally be a dedicated person in charge Come and collect the money.

The three of Yun Jinghao searched for a vacant seat near a small stall selling steamed buns, noodles or biscuits, and stood there. Before Mrs. Wang could ask how they planned to sell, Luo Jinxiu cleared her throat and shouted. up.

"Sweet and sour candied haws that have just been made! Who wants to buy them! A small string costs two yuan, a large string costs three yuan, and a large string costs two yuan! Delicious candied haws, sour and sweet, also invigorate the spleen and appetizers, and help digestion The effect of reducing stagnation and other effects is cheap and good, and the fathers and villagers who pass by should not miss it!"

Yun Jinghao: "..."

Wang: "!"

I can't see that this girl's film is so shameless that she yells and yells, and what's more, the effect of invigorating the spleen and appetizing, it comes as soon as she opens her mouth, why has she never known what else is there for this sour fruit that no one has eaten before? special effect?Isn't this girl talking nonsense?
However, seeing that many people around were attracted by Luo Jinxiu's yelling, Mrs. Wang swallowed the words and looked at those people expectantly, wishing that they would hurry over and buy all these candied haws clean.

Luo Jinxiu repeated it three times in a row, and finally someone couldn't help but came over curiously and asked, "Little lady, what is your candied haws? Is it really as delicious as you said? It also invigorates the spleen and appetizers?"

Luo Jinxiu looked at the suspicious aunt in front of her with a smile on her face, and said, "Of course, it doesn't cost money if it's not delicious! It's not much for two or three pennies. Look at the thick sugar coating on the outside, it's sweet just by looking at it." , you buy it for your grandson to taste, he will definitely like it." As he spoke, he looked down at the boy who was holding the corner of the aunt's clothes with anticipation in his eyes.

The aunt underestimated in a low voice, "It's not expensive to buy a big meat bun for three pennies", but seeing that the so-called candied haws are indeed coated with a thick layer of sugar, and seeing the eagerness of her good grandson, she can't help but hesitate in her heart.

There are also several passers-by who are a little bit strange but dare not be the first to eat crabs.

After a while, the aunt asked again: "Is it really worth the money if it doesn't taste good?"

The others also pricked up their ears, waiting for an answer.

Seeing that these people were clearly trying to take advantage, Wang opened his mouth to say something when he was dissatisfied, but was stopped by Yun Jinghao next to him, and Luo Jinxiu took out a small handful prepared in advance and did not string them together. The sugar-coated Shanli Hongguo said to a small group of people in front of him: "If you don't believe me, you can try it first. These loose candies are free of charge. If you feel delicious after eating, you can buy them again."

Now those people didn't hesitate anymore, and several of them reached out and picked up a Shanlihong, half-believingly giving it to their son or grandson who was traveling with them, and eating it by themselves if they didn't bring their children.

"Hmm!" The big man who put the fruit into his mouth suddenly widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

"good to eat!"

"It's really sweet and sour, and it tastes good!"

Those two or three five or six-year-old children's eyes lit up after eating the sweet taste, "It's delicious! Grandma (mother) I want more!"

The other people who were still watching saw that several adults and children said it was delicious, so they quickly reached out to eat it. In the blink of an eye, they ate up the dozen or so samples that Luo Jinxiu had prepared, and then At first, the aunt who was skeptical and a bit too expensive was the first to take out two cents and said, "Give me a string for my grandson!"

This sentence seemed to open a hole, and the others followed suit.

"The taste is really good, I want a big one! You just said that there are two strings of five cents for a big string, right!"

"Yes."

"Then give me two big skewers!"

"I want a bunch of small ones!"

"I want three skewers!"

Mrs. Wang thought it would take some time to really make a business, but she just found a good seat and not long after, Luo Jinxiu attracted so many guests with just a single mouth, as more and more people came around , Other people from a distance were also attracted to look around curiously. When they learned that there were delicious fresh food for sale, some people bought a bunch with the attitude of trying it out. After tasting the taste and found that it was indeed delicious, basically I will buy two more skewers and prepare to take them home for my family to eat.

But in a short time, twenty or thirty bunches of candied haws were sold, and the money bag that Luo Jinxiu brought here also contained forty or fifty copper coins!
Seeing that Wang made dozens of pennies in the blink of an eye, she almost made her mouth crooked from laughing!
Yun Jinghao didn't respond at all, and only helped to pass candied haws or pick up money to the guests when his wife was too busy, and then handed them over to her.

Mrs. Wang didn't compete for the job of collecting money. Anyway, the three of them supervised each other, and no one should be greedy for the money they earned. Whoever took care of it had to hand it over to Li Shuxiu when they got home. There was no need to grab it.

After the group of customers had finished their purchases and left, Luo Jinxiu started selling again, and then many people came to buy them one after another. It took a total of less than an hour before and after, and a hundred bunches of candied haws sold out!
"This is also selling too fast!" Wang said in shock.

Luo Jinxiu handed the empty wooden stick to Yun Jinghao, tied up the string of the purse, and said, "It's nothing. Candied haws have never been sold before. It's normal for everyone to try something new. Besides, the sugar coating we wrapped is really good. It's very thick, and ordinary people don't eat sweets every day, and it's a good deal to eat six or seven sugar-coated fruits for two or three Wen."

Wang's face was full of excitement and said: "I see that according to the situation, we can definitely sell a little more every day! Two hundred strings, or even three hundred strings can be tried!"

Just imagine selling 150 strings a day, earning a net profit of [-] ren, more than [-] liang a month, almost equal to the income of a whole year's production in the field!

"If the family can prepare enough Shanlihong every day, it's no problem to sell two or three hundred bunches." Luo Jinxiu gestured to Yun Jinghao to go, "But today we only brought a hundred bunches, It’s time to go back if it’s sold out, and how much to sell tomorrow will be determined after going back and discussing with the rest of the family.”

"That's right! Go back quickly, and you can go up the mountain to pick more fruits! The stock at home is not enough to sell!" Seeing the tangible benefits, Wang's attitude was more positive than before, and she urged Luo Jinxiu and the other two go now.

Back home, Li Shuxiu, Mrs. Zhang and the others wondered why they came back so quickly. After Mrs. Wang couldn't wait to talk about the situation in the town today, they all opened their mouths in surprise.

Li Shuxiu hurriedly said: "Hurry up and take out the money you earned today, I'll count it right!"

Luo Jinxiu didn't hesitate, and simply handed over the money bag. Everyone in the Yun family gathered together and watched helplessly as the old lady counted the coins one by one.

Because many strings were sold in two strings of five cents, the final amount of money is not very sure, at least Wang does not know how much money there is in total, at most it can only be determined under her stalking, Luo Jinxiu is sure There is no chance to sneak even a penny.

It was Luo Jinxiu who reported today's results in advance based on her excellent memory before Li Shuxiu started counting the money, "There are fifty bunches of one hundred bunches of candied haws in total, and 36 of them are sold in two bunches for five cents. , a total of 42 Wen, the other 230 strings are 220 Wen, plus another [-] small strings of [-] Wen, a total of [-] Wen, because I paid the stall fee of [-] Wen, the rest should be [-] Seven texts."

Of course, Li Shuxiu didn't believe her one-sided words, and counted all the copper coins very seriously.
