Chapter 17 Bargaining
Nan Xing waved at Ma Huayi, and said with a smile, "Morning shopkeeper Ma, I wonder if you like the preserved apricots I just sent in?"

"It's okay." Ma Huayi said pretending to be reserved, but he still couldn't suppress the beaming smile on his face.

He took a sip of tea, and when he was less excited, he smiled and said, "Oh, so it's called dried apricot."

Seeing this, Nan Xing immediately knew what was going on, and said straight to the point: "We still have some here, I wonder if Shopkeeper Ma wants more? You also know that the heat is so hot now, if the guests' appetites cannot be whetted, it will be bad for your restaurant's business." More or less there will be some bad effects."

She paused, and then continued: "Not to mention anything else, just because this preserved apricot is the only one, no matter whether you Hongfu Restaurant uses it as an appetizer or as a refreshment for distinguished guests, it will definitely be very popular Welcome. Shopkeeper Horse, what do you think?"

After all, she grinned at him.

Ma Huayi didn't expect a yellow-haired girl from the countryside to have some knowledge.

He knew in his heart that this was a great thing for Hongfu Restaurant, not to mention that this preserved apricot was the only one.

Even if it is not sold in a restaurant, there are still many good places to go, such as giving it to some nobles in the back house, and then holding banquets...

He squinted his eyes, thought happily for a moment, and then said, "How much do you have? It's not too late to take it out first."

Nan Xing waved at the dazed Qiu Ju, and took out all the preserved apricots from her basket.

Ma Huayi had tasted the taste of this dried apricot before, and after taking a look at it, he couldn't help swallowing again.

"How is it? How much is Shopkeeper Ma going to give?" Nan Xing asked again with a smile.

"Your quantity is a bit small." Ma Huayi began to be picky.

"It's easy to say, as long as the price is right, we can continue to supply in the future." Nan Xing thought of the old apricot tree on the mountain, which was full of fruit and he would not worry about picking it.

Ma Huayi raised his head to meet her confident eyes, couldn't help pondering for a moment, and said hesitantly, "One catty, one thousand Wen?"

Sweet and sour, and unique flavor.

Since it is the only copy, I will definitely not worry about selling it.

Therefore, his asking price cannot be too low, but it cannot be too high.

"It's a little..." Nan Xing pondered for a while, then looked at him with a bit of disgust.

"Girl, we have a small business in a restaurant, and we look good from the outside, but it's not easy for us..."

"Add more, one catty, two hundred wen for 1000." Nan Xing interrupted him, and smiled meaningfully: "It's not easy for us."

Hearing this, Ma Huayi's heart skipped a beat immediately. Could it be that she is going to find his deadly enemy?As soon as he thought of this, he immediately smiled slyly: "Okay, but it's agreed, from now on, your goods can only be supplied to our Hongfu Restaurant."

"Two hundred Wen for 1000?" Qiu Ju and Chun Mei lowered their heads when they heard this, and almost fell off their heads.

Fortunately, Ma Huayi couldn't see the expressions of the two of them, otherwise Nan Xing wouldn't have caught him so easily.

"No problem." Nan Xing waved her hand and replied very readily, and then she took out another bag of preserved apricots from Chunmei's back basket, and looked at him with a smile: "Master Ma, I have a better bag here." Yes, it only sells for [-] Wen per catty, do you want more?"

Ma Huayi's eyes lit up, and he reached out to grab it.

As a result, the hand that had just reached halfway stopped suddenly in embarrassment, and said in a deep voice: "...how do you sit on the ground and raise the price?"

Nan Xing grinned, pointed to the dried apricots on the table, and then took the dried apricots in his hand for comparison.

Although they were all preserved apricots, Ma Huayi could tell that the ones she took out later were much better in color.

'Ahem...' After a few sounds, he couldn't help frowning, a little stumbled.

Zhu Gao was also taken aback, it was the first time he saw someone stumping their shopkeeper.

Ma Huayi met her childish face, and suddenly smiled: "It's tall, how about it, let's give in to each other, [-] Wen per catty."

"Okay!" Nan Xing gave him a big smile, and when he swallowed all the tea in his mouth, he continued to smile and said, "Shopkeeper Ma, why don't you be a good man and ask for this bag as well? "After that, she took out the best bag of preserved apricots in her basket.

Ma Huayi choked for breath: "..."

Are you a fox?This set is a bit deep.

He had to look at her again, looking at her without blinking.

Even though he was used to seeing big scenes, this was the first time he met such a smart and cunning little lady.

Looking at the bag of big and beautiful apricots, he felt a chill down his spine, and asked tentatively, "...how much?"

"One catty, two thousand Wen." Nan Xing smiled at him and said confidently.

"Pfft!" Ma Huayi spurted the tea out of his mouth.

He couldn't help but hopped his feet and widened his eyes: "Girl, isn't this bad?"

"Horse shopkeeper, I am taking care of you." As she spoke, she inadvertently glanced at the restaurant across the street.

Seeing this, Ma Huayi's face darkened, and he looked at her seriously: "Girl, are you trying to backtrack on what you promised?"

"...Am I such a person?" Nan Xing rolled his eyes at him, and seeing that he still couldn't figure it out, he smiled and pointed him to a clear path: "Master Ma, I heard that the wife of the magistrate's family is happy again." , It's just that the heat has been hot recently, and my appetite is not very good. I seem to have moved a little more in the past two days. Look at this package of preserved apricots. It's so good in color, big and delicious. I originally wanted to take it to try my luck. , but I feel that this gift from Shopkeeper Ma is far more useful than giving it to me."

In fact, if Chunmei hadn't nagged a lot in her ear that day, she still wouldn't know why the county magistrate called the doctor over.

She didn't intend to give the preserved apricots to the magistrate, but it just made Ma Huayi feel that she was very sincere.

Sure enough, Ma Huayi hissed in his heart, thinking it made sense.

He couldn't help but look at her formally again, and said with a smile, "I'll settle the bill with this girl."

"Thank you, Shopkeeper Ma, you can just call me Nan Xing from now on." She blinked her clear eyes and smiled inwardly.

After Nan Xing and the others left, Ma Huayi wiped the sweat from his forehead, he was a formidable young man, he was even more foxy than him.

I thought to myself that when he was at this age, how could he know how to satisfy the other party's appetite first, and then dig a hole while digging a hole to raise the price.

If Nan Xing had taken out all the preserved apricots from the beginning, he would have directly pressed down from one thousand Wen, and there would be no chance for her to raise it.

He was also careless, he thought that the other party put the best things in front of him from the beginning, who knew that there would be better things in the future, the best...

After Qiu Ju and Chun Mei followed Nan Xing out of Hongfu Restaurant, they were still in a daze, touched the copper plate in their hands, and realized that it was real.

At this moment, Liu Gui came out from the back kitchen of the restaurant, and stopped them, "Hey, Nan Xing, why are you here?"
