Chapter 18 Selling Mushrooms

Seeing acquaintances, it is natural to be polite.

Melo Mei obediently called for someone behind Mei Daya, then found a corner and sat down, listening to the chatter of a few people, and followed the ox cart to the town.

I used to watch rural movies, watching those old farmers sitting in a bullock cart and waving their whips, and the sun was setting. It felt so romantic.Now I really came to ride an ox cart, and found that it was not the case at all.

A group of people squeezed into a small space, mixed with various smells, and the ox cart was bumpy, which made people feel nauseous.

Really, it's more uncomfortable than taking the green leather train before!

After finally getting to the town, Melomei gave the boy from the same village who was driving the car four pennies, and made an appointment to go back. After saying hello to Aunt Wang and the others, she walked down the street with her back on her back.

"Sister, shall we sell mushrooms first or go to Xiuzhuang to hand in the purse first?"

Melo Mei pulled down the red belt on her back, raised her head and asked Mei Daya.

"Let's go sell the mushrooms first. The purse is promised to others. In the past, you can leave after paying it. But the mushrooms still have to find a buyer!"

"Okay, does the eldest sister know where there is a big restaurant near here?"

Mei Luomei asked Mei Daya, thinking of the days when there was navigation in her heart.

With the mobile phone in hand, I have the world.Now, alas... don't mention it!
"There's one over there, let's go there."

Mei Daya pointed to the front, and led Melomei over first.

When they came to the door of the restaurant, Mei Daya stopped, and said uncertainly: "Sanya, are we really going in? It would be embarrassing if they didn't accept our mushrooms."

"Oh, sister, it's all here. Stretch your head and shrink your head. What are you afraid of? As for people not accepting it, that's normal. You can't buy and sell by force! Some people even say that failure is the mother of success, so failure It's a very normal thing, there are ghosts in life without failure!"

"If you don't try it, how do you know if others will accept it?"

Melomei looked up at the signboard above, and saw that it said - Gentleman's Restaurant, four big gilt characters, which looked very tall, no wonder Mei Daya dared not go forward.

Melomei looked down at the patch upon patch of clothes on her body, it seemed a bit shabby.However, no one can stop her determination to make money—not even broken clothes.

"Eldest sister, as long as you are not embarrassed, the one who is embarrassed is someone else."

Mei Luomei continued to walk forward, pouring chicken soup for Mei Daya while walking.

Aunt Mei "..."

Melomei was about to enter the store when she was stopped by a shop boy who suddenly came out of the restaurant: "Little girl, you are not allowed to enter here casually."

"Ah, isn't this a place to eat?"

Did it go wrong?
"It's a place to eat, but look at you..."

The waiter looked back and forth between the two of Melo and Mei. If his eyes were X-rays, he might have taken a thorough photo of their intestines, liver, stomach and lungs.

"Sanya, let's go."

When Mei Daya was sized up by the waiter in the shop, she felt inferior for a while, and she blushed immediately.Regardless of Melomei's resistance, he directly grabbed her hand and dragged it away.

"Sister, what are you pulling me for, I haven't found the shopkeeper to sell mushrooms yet!"

"Sanya, let's not sell it in a restaurant, let's set up a stall on the side of the road. You see, everyone else sells it like this."

Mei Daya was frightened by the look of the waiter in the shop just now, and now she wants to retreat.

"Sister, let's not say whether anyone will buy it, but when we can sell it out, and I have other things to do, and I don't have time to waste there." Melome didn't want to squat on the road Side selling mushrooms.

"Sanya, be good, listen to what Eldest Sister says. Eldest Sister will buy you candy later." Aunt Mei continued to coax.

"Sister, how can you do this, if you really don't want to go, forget it, I will go by myself."

Can a few candies interrupt her dream of getting rich?Go dreaming!

Melomei broke free from Yamei's restraint, and quickly ran away with Luo Fei on her back.

After asking several people along the way, I finally found the second largest restaurant in Shuanghe Town - Mingde Restaurant.

This restaurant is not as big as Junzi Restaurant, and the decoration is not as luxurious, but it is more elegant.

The clerk of Mingde Restaurant was cleaning the table, when he saw someone at the door, he rushed up to greet him, but found out that it was just a little girl.

"Little sister, why are you alone, did you get lost with your parents?"

The shop waiter didn't look down on her because of her tattered clothes, but instead asked patiently, which made Merlo Meton feel good about her.

"Little brother, I just want to ask, do you collect mushrooms? I just picked them not long ago, and they are still fresh!"

Melome put down her back, took out a mushroom from it, and showed it to the waiter.

The waiter in the shop looked at Melomei, maybe she felt pitiful, stared at her for a while, then took the mushroom in her hand, then pointed to a corner of the living room and said: "Where are you sitting, wait a minute, I'll ask Ask the shopkeeper."

The waiter took the mushrooms and went straight to the back kitchen.

In the back kitchen, Sun Changdun was watching the cooks work with his hands behind his back, when he suddenly saw the waiter running over, he frowned in displeasure.

"Why didn't you greet me in front of you and come here?"

"Boss, there is a little girl who came to sell mushrooms. I saw her pitiful and asked her to sit in the living room and wait. Let me ask, does our restaurant still accept mushrooms?"

"Look at the quality. If the quality is good, just charge a little. If the quality is not good, forget it. You also know that there are relatively few people who order mushrooms, and you can't make much money."

"Then shopkeeper, do you want this kind of thing?"

The shop waiter handed the mushroom to Sun Changdun.

"The appearance of this mushroom is not bad, you go... well, forget it, I'll go and see for myself."

Sun Changdun originally wanted the waiter in the shop to buy a couple of catties and forget it, but after thinking about it, he still thought it would be better to go by himself.

Melomei sat in the living room for a while, wondering if the shopkeeper here didn't want to see her, when she saw the waiter from the shop who went just now came out behind a middle-aged uncle.

"You want to sell mushrooms?"

Sun Changdun glanced at the little girl sitting there motionless, and felt really pitiful. No wonder he planned to run errands for her at the risk of being scolded.

The little girl's head and face were wrapped in thick white cloth strips, her clothes were tattered and patched, and her shoes had a few holes in the front, her toes were exposed, and there was some mud on her shoes. It seemed that she had walked a long time. The long road is not easy to look at.

"Yes, I wonder if your restaurant accepts mushrooms?"

When Melomei heard the question, she quickly stood up and answered it gracefully, as if she was not affected by this attire at all.

"Harvest is harvesting, but the quality must be good. I don't know if all your mushrooms are like the one you took out just now."

"Don't worry, uncle, our mushrooms are carefully selected. If you can't buy them, you won't be fooled."

Melomei hastily removed a few handfuls of wild vegetables on the back radish, and then exposed the mushrooms in the back radish.

Sun Changdun took a look and found that the appearance was really good, so he said: "Eight cents a catty, I want all of these."

Melomei thought about the current market price, and knew that the shopkeeper in front of him didn't maliciously lower the price because he was a child, so he felt happy immediately, and nodded: "Just follow the price that uncle said."
