Nongmen Merchant Girl

Chapter 21
The peanuts are already cold, but fortunately, the weather is not too cold, and most people can still accept them.Xu Ru used a wooden spoon to put the peanuts into a clean bamboo basket prepared in advance, imitating the way of selling buns next to her, and shouted.

"Five-spice peanuts, come and have a taste. The newly unearthed peanuts this year don't cost money if they don't taste good!" Her special tone combined with a crisp and clear voice made her stand out among the group of people.

Yinhua also went to imitate her and started selling.

"Spiced peanuts, try it and see."

"Fourth sister, why don't you ask for money if it's not delicious, then we're at a big loss." Yinhua complained to Xu Ru that although peanuts are delicious, what should I do if they really don't pay for unreasonable peanuts.

"Hehe, second sister, don't worry. They sell food. If it doesn't taste good, it's a pity for the money they spent. We can let others taste it first. Anyway, a peanut is worth a lot of money." It's not worth a few dollars." She was quite confident in herself.

"Okay, Second Sister, we will definitely be able to sell, and we will sell a lot more." In fact, she also knows that this kind of transaction is not a long-term one, and the main thing is to seize the opportunity and market.

If this sells well, others will follow suit, and it is estimated that all kinds of boiled peanuts will be launched everywhere in the street before long.

"Selling peanuts, boiled peanuts, free tasting, no money if it doesn't taste good, take a walk and have a look."

"Hey, girl, peanut seller, are your peanuts really delicious? Give me a taste." The uncle selling buns next door saw the two mothers shouting very enthusiastically, and wanted to buy some back for his little son. snack.

"Uncle, I'm sure you'll want to eat another after eating one. Here, how about you try it?" Xu Ru filled a spoon and wrapped it on the oil paper prepared in advance, and handed it to the uncle selling buns.

"Hey, I don't need so much, if not, I'll just taste one." The uncle was a little surprised to see that she was so polite and gave back so much after eating for free.

"It doesn't matter, uncle, you can just eat it. Our peanuts are also grown at home, so they are not so valuable. If you think they are delicious, you can buy some and give them to your family to try. These are newly dug peanuts this year. It’s cooked with special seasoning, it’s absolutely delicious, my younger brother ate a bowl last night, his stomach was so distended that he couldn’t sleep, hehe.” Of course, doing business requires investment, whether it’s money or favors, you have to be generous.

The uncle who sells steamed buns tasted one, and felt that the flavor was quite different from what he usually eats. He usually eats dried peanuts, which are crunchy and fragrant, but this one is boiled, and the outer shell has softened. Peanuts give people a special taste.Especially after peeling the peanuts, I still want to have the urge to lick my fingers.Then he shared the rest with the familiar hawker next to him.

"Girl, your peanuts are really different. My old man thinks the peanuts are delicious, hehe, come and pack a catty, and let the family have a taste." The uncle who sold the buns bought a catty.Then a few people around me also bought some.

Xu Ru sold fifteen yuan a catty, she had already inquired with her father before, and dried peanuts were also sold at fifteen yuan a catty.I didn't do business in my previous life, so I discussed it with my father. Fifteen Wen felt appropriate, but Xu Ru felt it was a bit low. After all, seasoning and firewood are considered costs, but the price should not be too high for the first time. After all, in this society The least valuable thing is labor.

An hour later, Xu's father also came back with a bag on his shoulders. Seeing that there were not many peanuts left, she suggested to eat first and then go shopping for something.

"Father, where is Yumanlou?" Xu Ru wanted to try his luck at Yumanlou. They all said that Yumanlou was the best restaurant in Qinghe Town.

"Just at the intersection in front of this street, fourth girl, are you going to Yumanlou?" Xu's father looked at his daughter with bright eyes and curiosity, and his heart softened.

"Let's go, Dad, let's go and have a look." Xu's father saw her hugging his arms and acting like a baby. .

Xu Ru left the trolley with the uncle selling steamed buns, took the remaining peanuts and fermented bean curd and took Yinhua's hand and quietly asked her today's income. Yinhua said excitedly that it was 330 cash in total.Every time she comes to sell wild vegetables and mushrooms, she also picks them from the mountains after a hard day. She has never sold them for so much money, but the fourth sister can sell them so well just by cooking peanuts. The days will definitely get better and better.

The father and daughter walked to the gate of Yumanlou, and saw people coming in and out from time to time, and there was a young servant in gray clothes and a turban standing at the door.

Not far from the restaurant, there were a few beggars squatting there basking in the sun.From the outside, this restaurant can be regarded as the largest and most luxurious building in Qinghe Town. It is a two-storey building with a facade three times the size of its neighbors. The walls are painted with varnish. shining.

Xu Ru took Yinhua and walked directly into the lobby of Yumanlou, found a middle seat and sat down.Xu's father reluctantly followed in together, thinking about how to persuade the fourth girl to go back if she wanted to eat something, mainly because she didn't have much money.

"What do the three guests want to eat?" As soon as they were seated, a waiter came over to say hello.

"Here are five steamed buns." Xu Ru replied while pouring water from the teapot on the table.

"What else do you want?"

"If you don't want it, just this one. By the way, please add some more tea." Xu Ru handed the empty teapot on the table to Xiao Er.

The waiter in the shop looked at Xu Ru and the others strangely, then shook the towel on his shoulder and shouted, "Five white steamed buns!"

"Father, you haven't eaten here yet, have you? Hee hee, this environment is great, so big and spacious." Seeing her father and Yinhua sitting there very stiffly, without drinking the water that was poured, she took the initiative Let them relax.

"Second sister, take out the peanuts and fermented bean curd and eat them. The steamed buns with fermented bean curd are delicious."

"Guest officer, your five steamed buns." After a while, Xiaoer brought up the steaming steamed buns.

"Thank you big brother." Xu Ru smiled sweetly at the little girl while peeling peanuts and sucked her finger.

"What are you eating? It smells delicious. And this, is it delicious when you put it on steamed buns?" The waiter was very curious and saw that the three of them were eating happily.

Although the customer only wanted five steamed buns, he didn't feel embarrassed at all, and he was contented.
