- #118 - Chapter 118: Cheap and affordable (second update)
When the little woman heard the price, she thought it was acceptable. She was still a little unsure and asked, “Is it really delicious?”
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said: “It’s really delicious. Keep it until you eat it and you’ll want to buy it again.”
“This is our exclusive secret recipe. You can’t buy it anywhere else. The taste is very different. You can’t buy it with three pennies, and you can’t be cheated. It’s just out of the pot and it’s hot.”
“And you can smell it just by smelling it. This thing must be delicious if it smells so good.”
“I’m not going to lie to you, many old customers are interested in our chive boxes.”
“We are people from around here, and we don’t do any business. We just want everyone to have a good meal and be repeat customers, and come back more often to take care of our business…”
Jiang Zhiluo Balabala said a lot.
The little woman smiled and said, “Okay, then buy two leek boxes.”
The little woman was reluctant to buy more, and planned to give one to her men and one to her daughter. She would not need to eat it herself.
Jiang Zhiluo hurriedly wrapped the two boxes of fried leeks and handed them to the little woman. The little woman gave them six cents.
She took out one and handed it to her daughter and said, “Come on, eat slowly.”
The little girl ate as she walked, blew on it and took one bite after another. She puffed up her cheeks and said, “Mom, it’s delicious.”
Looking at her daughter’s happy look, the little woman also breathed a sigh of relief.
At the stall, the little woman gave another box of leeks to her man to eat.
Her husband is reluctant to eat, so he lets her eat.
The two of us ended up eating one bite at a time.
There happened to be guests coming over. Smelling the aroma and watching them eat, especially the little girl eating happily, made people curious.
“Sister, what are you cooking that tastes so delicious?”
The little woman smiled and said: “It’s not delicious. I just bought a leek box from the stall over there for three cents each. I was originally worried that it wouldn’t be delicious.”
“Don’t tell me, it’s really delicious. It tastes different from other things. It looks like a pie, but it’s not the same as a pie.”
At this time, the little girl said crisply: “Mom, there are eggs.”
The little woman said: “It’s true, the eggs look quite small, and three cents is really not expensive.”
At this time, the lady who asked the question also went to Jiang Zhiluo’s stall with a basket.
“Little lady, I’ll buy six of those boxes.” Her daughter-in-law and daughter both weave, and her family has plenty of land and good conditions. Every time she goes to the market, she will come to the market to buy some delicious food for her family to try. Try something new.
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, “It’s a leek box. It’ll be ready soon.”
Just like this, people came one after another early in the morning to buy things, including buying pot helmets and some buying leek boxes.
But many people still buy leeks boxes.
Because three cents is cheap.
Everyone just wants to fill their stomachs, so just a little warm meal is enough.
After selling leek boxes for a while, Jiang Zhiluo understood the difference between a village market and a stall in the town.
“Mom, I feel that when people go to the village market, more of the dishes are affordable and cheap. Guokui has meat, but for two cents more, even if it tastes better, everyone still chooses the leek box.”
Mrs. Cui nodded and said, “That’s it. I came here to go to the market before because I wanted things to be cheap and affordable.”
“You see, everyone in our village has copper coins in their hands, and they rarely go to the town to buy anything together. They always go to the village market to buy things.”
“But in those villages with good conditions, villagers like to go to the town to take a look.”
“You said, these pot helmets won’t be sold, right?”
Mrs. Cui is worried that people will only buy leek boxes and not pot helmets.
Jiang Zhiluo said: “Mom, don’t worry, the market won’t close until the evening. We will definitely be able to sell it in a whole day’s work. If we can’t sell it, we will go to the pier.”
“Yep.”
Once Mrs. Cui heard this, she felt relieved.
As if thinking of something, Mrs. Cui said: “Zhiluo, will your parents come to the market? We happened to have made food. If they come to the market, we can give them some food.”
Jiang Zhiluo’s expression changed, thinking that her parents would come to set up a stall, and she said with an expression: “My parents should come to set up a stall to sell straw sandals.” Upon hearing this, Mrs. Cui hurriedly said: “Maybe I haven’t had breakfast, so I’d better fry some leeks. Send the box and pot helmet over.”
Jiang Zhiluo did not refuse. She originally wanted to say thank you, but she also knew that saying thank you would be too intrusive.
“okay.”
There are not many people here who know how to buy things. Mrs. Cui is frying leek boxes and pot helmets, while Jiang Zhiluo goes to find her parents first to see where their stall is.
Jiang Zhiluo was walking in the market, looking back and forth at the stalls on both sides.
After walking for a while, when I walked around to the other side, I saw my parents’ stall.
My parents brought Xuanxuan to set up a stall.
“Mom and dad, Xuanxuan.”
Jiang Zhiluo knew that if she went to the market to set up a stall, her parents would usually only take Xuan Xuan with them, while her second brother and the others would work at home.
“Sister.” Xuanxuan was sitting obediently on the small stool. When she saw Jiang Zhiluo coming, she quickly stood up and ran towards Jiang Zhiluo.
Jiang Zhiluo was afraid that he would be hit by the crowd, so she hurried over and knelt down to pick him up.
Jiang Xiangchuan and Ye Shi were also very happy when they saw Zhiluo coming.
“Zhiluo, are you here to go to the market too?”
Jiang Zhiluo nodded and said, “Well, come with my mother-in-law to set up a stall and cook some food.”
Jiang Zhiluo took out six pot helmets and said, “Mom and dad, you eat pot helmets.”
“This is the food I just researched.”
Mrs. Ye quickly waved her hand and said: “Mom, your father and Xuanxuan have all had breakfast. You can keep the food and sell it for money. Don’t worry about us.”
Jiang Zhiluo said: “Mom, I’ve brought it all over. You, dad and Xuanxuan can help me taste it.”
“I don’t know if it tastes good or not. I’ll have an opinion after you taste it.”
Jiang Zhiluo was very insistent.
She also took one and put it into Xuan Xuan’s hand first, saying, “Xuan Xuan eats it.”
Xuanxuan looked at her parents, then extended her hand to Jiang Zhiluo and said, “Sister, it’s hard work in business. Xuanxuan is not hungry, so there is no need to eat.”
Although he is still young, he also knows that Sister A is working hard.
“My sister wants to make money to build a house.”
Hearing Xuan Xuan’s words, Jiang Zhiluo felt sour and warm in her heart, “Xuan Xuan helped sister taste it. Sister didn’t work hard and has already started building a house.”
“After the house is built, Xuanxuan and his parents will go to Ajie’s house for dinner together.”
When a house was built here, there was a custom of warming pots for meals.
Xuanxuan became excited upon hearing this.
“Xuanxuan eat it while it’s hot. If you don’t eat it, my sister will be sad.”
Jiang Zhiluo deliberately showed a sad look. Xuanxuan quickly reached out and touched Jiang Zhiluo’s eyebrows and said, “Sister, if you are not sad, Xuanxuan will eat it.”
“So good.”
Jiang Xiangchuan and Mr. Ye felt helpless and heartbroken when they saw their daughter talking like this, so they also started to eat.
After eating this, both of them were shocked.
“Is this called Guokui? Is it so delicious?”
Jiang Xiangchuan was also stunned and said: “I have indeed never eaten such food.”
Xuanxuan also nodded obediently, “Yeah, it’s delicious. My sister made it delicious.”
Seeing her parents and Xuanxuan eating happily, Jiang Zhiluo was also very happy.
“I will teach my parents how to make it later, and they can also make it and eat it on weekdays.” (End of this chapter)
