Chapter 71

After Shen Yunjin and his younger siblings arrived in the town, they set up a stall to sell pastries as usual.Today Zhou Ling'er had relatives at home, so she couldn't leave for the time being, so she didn't come with her. Shen Yunjin discussed with her to stop the business of bamboo baskets for one day today, and sell bamboo baskets together tomorrow.

At noon, after the snacks were sold out, Shen Yunjin closed the stall and took Yun Wen and Jing Er to have lunch.

Shen Yunjin originally wanted to take the two of them to a restaurant to have a good meal, but Jing Er insisted on eating the wonton stew from the stall, saying that the beef wonton stew in the restaurant was not as good as the ones from the stall outside, and there was no small The stalls were affordable, and Yunwen said so, so Shen Yunjin had no choice but to take the two of them to the wonton stew stand opposite the teahouse, and ordered three big bowls of beef wonton stew.

After the wonton stew was ready, the owner who sold the wonton stew personally came over and brought the wonton stew to the table. Seeing the delicious and steaming wonton stew in front of him, Jing Er immediately picked up the chopsticks and began to eat. .

Yunwen looked at him and said with a smile, "Look at you, you know how to eat. It's just out of the pot, so be careful not to burn it."

Jing'er stuck out her tongue, "This wonton stew is delicious, and I'm willing to be scalded."

Xu Shijing'er was indeed burned, and his left and right cheeks were a little red, but he still continued to eat, it seems that the taste of this bowl of beef wonton stew really won his heart.

Shen Yunjin also picked up a ravioli stew with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and blew it, and then ate it.

The taste of this wonton stew is really good. Although Shen Yunjin has eaten it before, he didn't pay much attention to it before. The beef wonton stew sold here has a thin skin and a lot of stuffing. The inside is full of fresh and tender beef stuffing. But it is fragrant but not greasy, which is really rare.

Shen Yunjin looked at Jing'er who was still gobbling it up, and said, "I wanted to take you to eat something better, but it's good for you, you were dismissed by such a bowl of wonton stew, which saved me money .”

Jing Er drank two mouthfuls of the soup in the bowl, and said with emotion: "Sister, even this soup is delicious. The wonton stew here is better than the dishes in big restaurants. Even if you put delicacies of mountains and seas in front of me, I would rather I eat beef wonton stew every day, and I won’t get tired of it.”

Hearing his exaggeration, both Shen Yunjin and Yunwen couldn't help laughing. Beef wonton stew is no match for delicacies from mountains and seas. Jing'er's love for beef wonton stew is too persistent at the moment.

"Okay, since you like it, then you can eat more, and if it's not enough, I'll buy you another bowl later." Shen Yunjin smiled slightly, "We have to go shopping after we're full. It’s winter, and our family has to prepare winter clothes, and I also want to buy some vegetables to go home.”

At this time, two guests came to the table next to them. They were two men about 50 to [-] years old. Each of these two uncles held a heavy sack in their hands, which attracted Shen Yunjin's attention.

Those two sacks were a bit worn out, and a few places on the outside had been worn out, leaving only a thin layer, and you could see what was inside if you looked closely.Shen Yunjin glanced at the two sacks and saw that there seemed to be many children's toys such as rattles and windmills inside, so he guessed that the two uncles next to them should be small vendors selling toys.

After the two uncles sat down, they ordered two bowls of wonton stew with vegetarian stuffing, and then chatted in a low voice.

Shen Yunjin sat very close to them and heard their conversation.

One of the uncles sighed for a long time, "Hey, what do you call this? Our family can only rely on our brothers to come out and sell things to earn a little money to eat, but now let's go out again." You can't set up a stall in the market, so where will you go to sell things in the future?"

"If you can't go to the market, then how can you find a place to sell things? I think we should just find some odd jobs. We can earn a little bit. There is no other way to live a hard life." The other uncle replied, his tone a little frustrated.

"Odd jobs? Do you think odd jobs are so easy to find? Even if you find a job for a while, it's all low-earning and poor-paying. How can it be better than what we earn by setting up a stall here. You say this government is also Really, why are we not allowed to set up stalls in the market, just because we are not from the town? What if we don’t live in the town? Is it the same as yours?"

Hearing this, Shen Yunjin couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart. She heard the two uncles talking about setting up stalls in the market, and also heard that the government only allowed the people in the town to sell things in the market. But she didn't understand, and she didn't live in the town, but she was still able to set up a stall in the town to sell dim sum. Did the two uncles make a mistake?

She turned around and asked politely, "Excuse me, did you two sell things in the market before?"

Hearing this, the two uncles looked at her and nodded, "Yes, we are blood brothers. We used to set up stalls in the market to sell some children's toys, earning a meager amount of money but barely able to support our family, but in the future But I can no longer set up a stall in the market, alas."

Shen Yunjin was a little puzzled, and asked, "Why, because you don't live in the town? But I don't live in the town either, but I have been setting up a stall in the market for several months, and I have never heard of it. I said that people who are not from this town are not allowed to sell things here, have you two misunderstood?"

The two uncles looked at each other, then shook their heads helplessly, and one of them replied, "Girl, it seems that you don't know something, we used to be like you, we could set up stalls in the market, The business is going well, but since yesterday, everything has changed, don't you know the announcement from the government?"

Shen Yunjin shook her head, she had never heard of any announcement, but since this uncle can say that, it means that there must be something important that she doesn't know, and she couldn't help but get nervous.

"I don't know, uncle, can you tell me what was said in the announcement?" Shen Yunjin asked.

The uncle continued, "Girl, the government has issued an announcement to inform us all that from next month, as long as you are not from the town, you will not be allowed to set up stalls in the market. To do business in the city, one must live in the town.”

"That's right, the vendors at the market these two days have to go to the government to report. After the report, the government will arrange a fixed booth for everyone. Those who are allocated a fixed booth can only sell things in a fixed location. , you are not allowed to sell at other stalls, and those who are not allocated a stall are not allowed to set up a stall in the market." Another uncle interjected, "Oh, it's just that we are not from the town, but we can't be allocated a stall. gone."

Hearing this, Shen Yunjin was very surprised. Today is the third last day of the end of the month. After three days, it will be the next month. Follow the government's notice. Doesn't that mean that she will not be able to go to the market after three days? Are you selling dim sum?
(PS. High-energy warning ahead, a big event will happen in tomorrow's updated chapter, please guess as much as you want...hehe)
