90s Little Struggle

Chapter 26 Profits
After hearing this, the aunt left with disgust on her face: "Is it pigs entering the water? That smells weird! We don't like to eat it."

After speaking, turn around and leave.

Another uncle in his 60s came over, and Xiao Hong still greeted him warmly.

The old man didn’t dislike pigs, but when he heard the price, he blew his beard and stared: "What? Just this pig costs one yuan a catty? If you sell it for two or thirty cents a catty, I think you are a profiteer. "

Even if there are people who know how to make money by doing business, and now the big guys can't do without small business in their daily life, many people still look down on these business people in their hearts.

Now what everyone envies is the one holding an iron rice bowl.

Wu Julan blushed when she heard what he said.

Xiao Fang felt very regretful. Originally, she thought she would be able to open the business of the uncle?

Only Xiao Hong smiled indifferently: "Master, you have tasted it too, my taste is unique, right?"

From the satisfied look on the uncle's face when he tried the food earlier, and the fact that he was wearing a light gray short-sleeved shirt and trousers of the same color, we knew that this family should be from a good family.

Then he thinks it is too expensive, so he has to hold on.

If it is sold cheap today, it will be difficult for her to raise the price in the future.

"Master, you get what you pay for." Xiao Hong was still smiling and started bragging: "This is the appetizer that the generals liked to eat before. Could it be the ordinary nine-turn large intestine? My ancestors relied on it back then. With one hand, I have bought the next family business..."

"Then you can't sell it for the price of meat! You won't be taken advantage of at this price." The uncle bargained with her: "It's only fifty cents a catty, then I'll weigh you two catties."

Xiao Hong was deeply afraid that if she spoke too late, her mother would agree, and immediately refused: "No, our capital is expensive, and we put it in precious medicinal materials. If I can't sell it, then I will give it to relatives and friends."

After being rejected, the uncle snorted coldly and left with his hands behind his back.

Wu Julan saw that there was no one in front of their booth, so she couldn't help but persuade her in a low voice: "Xiao Hong, let me figure it out, we won't lose money if we sell it for [-] cents? Why don't we sell it cheaper?"

She also told the truth very sincerely: "This is about the same price as meat. If it were me, I would rather buy meat than large intestine."

Xiao Hong was hit knowingly by her mother, she really wanted to say: Mom, what are you talking about?
Besides, why do you look down on pig large intestines? In a few years, this braised sausage will be more expensive than meat?
"Mom, we have spent so much effort and firewood and spices. It's really not expensive to sell it for one yuan per catty."

Xiao Hong persuaded them: "Take it as if we are here to learn how to do business, and take this small business as practice, maybe we will be able to make a fortune and become well-off in the future."

What she said was true. After all, according to what she knew in her dream, after a few years, someone earned a house in the city within a year by selling braised meat.

There is also Zhao Long's family, who seem to have made a lot of money by selling Fangzi.

She doesn't have enough capital and no source of goods now, so she can only start from small troubles.

After hearing this, Wu Julan wished she could not sell it, lest her daughter want to do business in the future.

Their generation has endured too much hardship, and now they are satisfied if they can eat and drink enough.

It can be said that I am very satisfied with my current life.

So Wu Julan quickly persuaded her daughter: "You should study hard, like your sister-in-law, it would be great to be a teacher, don't work in the fields, don't need to be exposed to wind and rain, and have winter and summer vacations, and be respected by others."

Xiao Hong knew what she meant, with a serious face, and a perfunctory answer in her heart.

And at this moment, the old man who thought it was too expensive and refused to buy it came back again, and said with a stern face, "Just that braised sausage, give me a catty."

It's not that he's generous, but that his stomach doesn't live up to expectations, and because of what he tasted earlier, he couldn't even walk even if he wanted to.

The stewed sausage is really delicious, fragrant and chewy.

He also drank a couple of sips, this current drink and dish is really suitable.

"Okay, sir, I'll give you a tall scale." Xiao Hong picked up the scale, and it was considered that she had opened a business.

She remembered that plastic bags became popular here in the mid-90s.

Now everyone goes to the streets with baskets or net bags, cloth bags, straw ropes, oil paper, etc., soy sauce and vinegar bottles are all recycled.

In the future, the proliferation of plastic bags will become a public nuisance, but we have to admit that plastic bags are indeed convenient.

However, without plastic bags, it is not difficult for everyone.

There are reed leaves and reed leaves on the mountain, which are available all year round.

Wu Julan put the weighed large intestine in a roll with three wide reed leaves and handed it to him: "Brother, take it, there is still some soup in it."

Xiao Hong took one yuan, and her mouth was sweet: "If the uncle is easy to eat, bring an enamel jar or a rice jar when you come to buy it tomorrow, and I will put more soup for the uncle."

The uncle snorted, took the Ruoye with braised sausages and left.

After Wu Julan and the others left, she murmured in disbelief: "So it's so expensive and someone really buys it?"

"Yeah, the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. If our braised meat tastes good, there will be customers who don't think it's too expensive."

Although Xiao Hong spoke convincingly, she was secretly relieved,

It was the first time for her to get into the sedan chair as a big girl when doing this business.

I'm also afraid that I'm working in vain, but I won't be able to sell it in the end.

After a while, people came to ask the price one after another. Some of them thought it was too expensive after trying it and were reluctant to buy it, and some had money in their pockets and liked to drink a few sips, and they would buy a half-pound one to satisfy their hunger.

After about an hour, the sun was getting hotter and there were fewer people on the street.

Xiao Hong wiped off the sweat with the towel hanging around his neck, and shook the barrel: "It's a hot day, anyway, it's only seven or eight catties, let's take it home and eat it by ourselves?"

Even if she didn't count the money and didn't sell all of them, she knew that she made a lot of money today.

She believes that when everyone eats her own lo mei, there will definitely be repeat customers.

Wu Julan and Xiao Fang went to two meat stalls to buy pig offal. Hearing this, they quickly retorted: "It's not yet eight o'clock, so you go under the tree to enjoy the shade. I'll just watch it here, maybe someone will come buy it?"

Now she knows that there are a lot of people who are rich and willing to take advantage of it in the town, maybe they can sell it if they wait a little longer?

Xiao Hong glanced at Xiao Fang helplessly, and asked in a low voice, "Say, should we make an appointment with the butcher's stall to fetch pigs into the water every day?"

Xiao Fang thought about this problem when she went shopping: "The business is good today. If there are so many customers every day, then we can make an order, otherwise, if someone buys it, our business It can't be done."

She was worried that this business would not last long.

While the two sisters were muttering, the uncle who bought the lo mei first came over with three men of about the same age, looking for trouble, pointed at their mother from a distance and said: "That's it!"

Wu Julan was taken aback when she saw it, she couldn't speak fluently: "Why, what's the matter?"

Could it be that there is something wrong with their braised meat?
