Chapter 3 Selling Wild Grapes
In recent years, the county town has remodeled the old city and built a new large-scale fruit and vegetable market. The first half has a lot of traffic, and some stalls have been bought by fruit and vegetable merchants. The second half has much less traffic, and the stalls there are temporarily rented out at low prices. It is used by rural vegetable farmers who occasionally go to the city to sell vegetables.

Shen Yangguang rented a small booth for ten yuan for a day, and moved the wild grapes in with Zheng Hao and started selling them.

After opening the box and spreading the wild grapes on the counter, Zheng Hao asked, "By the way, how much do we sell for a catty of wild grapes?"

Shen Yangguang thought for a while and said, "30 yuan a catty, what do you think?"

Zheng Hao felt that it was a little low, and said, "Such a delicious thing, 50 yuan a catty is not an exaggeration, right?"

"Do you think we are here in the imperial capital? If you were in the imperial capital, people would buy it for 100 yuan a catty. In this small county like ours, it might be too expensive to sell!"

It was almost noon at this time, although the market was not as busy as in the morning, there were still many people buying vegetables and preparing to go home for lunch, but most of them gathered in the first half of the vegetable market, and few people came here.

After waiting for a long time, a woman about 30 years old came to the counter, took a look at the wild grapes, and asked, "I want to eat something sour recently. How do you sell this wild grape?"

Finally, a customer came to the door, and Shen Yangguang said enthusiastically: "Sister, our wild grapes are delicious, and they only cost 30 yuan a catty!"

After hearing this, the woman screamed: "30 yuan a catty? Why don't you go grab the money?"

At this time, a bald man rushed over upon hearing the sound, and shouted viciously, "Who wants to rob my wife!"

The bald man was much fatter than Zheng Hao, and the gold chain with thick fingers was shaking as the man ran. After approaching, Shen Yangguang suddenly found that the links of the gold chain might have faded due to long-term friction.

The big man stood in front of the counter angrily, and Shen Yangguang quickly said: "Brother, we are selling wild grapes, how can anyone steal money!"

The woman standing on the side muttered: "Wild grapes that cost a few cents a catty sell for 30 yuan a catty. If it's not stealing money, what is it?"

The big man stared and said: "30 yuan a catty, you can sell it to the ghost!" After speaking, he pulled the woman away.

Due to the previous noise, many people came to the originally empty counter. After hearing the whole story, the onlookers accused the two unscrupulous businessmen one after another.

"30 yuan a catty, isn't that too dark?"

"No wonder people are angry. The daughter-in-law is pregnant and wants to eat some sour food, so they open their mouths and ask for the price. It's really shameless!"

"That's right, if you ask me, no fool would buy their wild grapes!"

"..."

An old man with a cane and a half bundle of leeks said earnestly, "Boys, don't always think about making money, you must follow the right path, and don't engage in such vain things!"

After hearing the words of these uncles and aunts, Shen Yangguang was very embarrassed. He was really angry and wanted to laugh. He thought that you didn't even taste it, and you didn't know if it was delicious, so you said it was expensive. It was really convincing.

Zheng Hao couldn't stand it anymore, just when he was about to get angry, Shen Yangguang quickly grabbed him, took out some wild grapes and cut off a few pieces, ready to give them to the onlookers to taste, when suddenly there was a crisp voice.

"Shen Yangguang? Zheng Hao? Is it really you?"

Shen Yangguang looked up, and there was a beautiful figure among a group of old men and old ladies. It was his high school classmate Xia Yunxuan. She smiled and said, "Isn't this Xia Yunxuan? I haven't seen you for a long time. Why are you here? Shopping for vegetables?"

Seeing his old classmate, Zheng Hao was also very happy and said, "Yo, I haven't seen her for a few years and she is getting more and more beautiful!"

Xia Yunxuan gave a "puchi" smile, and said, "The dead mouse is getting fatter and fatter, but this glib one is still the same as before."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Shen Yangguang and continued: "Isn't it summer vacation now? I want to buy a la carte when I have nothing to do. I want to learn how to cook during this time."

Zheng Hao mumbled and said, "I can't see that Xia is still a good wife and mother!"

Xia Yunxuan rolled her eyes, ignored Zheng Hao, and asked, "Why are you selling wild grapes here?"

Shen Yangguang was a little embarrassed, and replied: "A while ago I graduated and had nothing to do, so I made some wild grapes with the mouse to experience life, alas!"

Xia Yunxuan knew why Shen Yangguang sighed, because she had also heard the discussion of the surrounding people before, and said, "Is your wild grape really so delicious? It sells for 30 yuan a catty!"

Shen Yangguang handed over the cut grapes and said, "You will know after you taste it."

Xia Yunxuan knew the taste of wild grapes, wanted to shirk but was embarrassed, so she pinched one and put it in her mouth, wondering if she would say something nice later to encourage the two old classmates.

After eating the fruit, Xia Yunxuan suddenly felt a little unbelievable, took out another piece and ate it, and then brought over the whole disposable fruit plate, full of praise while eating.

After a while, more than ten grapes were all eaten. Xia Yunxuan held the fruit plate and said, "I have never eaten such a delicious thing. I want to buy two catties, no, five catties!"

Shen Yangguang watched Xia Yunxuan staring at the wild grapes on the counter like a greedy cat, took out the bag, weighed five catties and handed it over, saying, "Just take it and eat it, no money!"

Xia Yunxuan, who was taking out the money, waved her hands again and again: "That's not acceptable! If it's an ordinary grape, it's fine. I can't take it for nothing for 30 yuan a catty!"

Shen Yangguang stuffed the bag into Xia Yunxuan's hand and said, "It's just a few catties of wild grapes, let my old classmates eat them. I have the final say on how much a catty is. If you insist on paying, I'll sell you for ten cents." One catty, these are fifty cents in total, give me the money!"

Xia Yunxuan didn't know that the other party really didn't want to take money, and wanted to say that she didn't want the money, so she wouldn't buy it, but she couldn't give up this delicious food, so she had to thank her repeatedly, and before leaving with the wild grapes, she tried her best to invite Shen Yangguang and Zheng Hao Visit your own home.

At this time, the woman who had just left and the bald man did not go far away. Seeing that Xia Yunxuan's compliment did not seem to be fake, the woman was very greedy for this wild grape, and said to the bald man: "When you get married, you are How do you put it, you don’t buy anything sour if people want to eat it now!”

"It's not that they don't want to buy it, it's just that they are obviously fools. How can wild grapes be sold so expensive. Besides, we were all like that just now. How dare you let me go back and buy it again!"

The woman pouted and said, "Hmph, I'm sorry for you, I'll go and taste it first, if it's really delicious, you can buy some for others!" After finishing speaking, she walked to the counter without waiting for the bald man to reply.

The woman didn't care about her previous unhappiness, and when she ate the wild grapes that Shen Yangguang had just cut, she felt sweet and sour, neither as sour as wild grapes, nor as sweet and greasy as ordinary grapes, After eating, the mouth is full of fruity aroma, and the mood seems to be much better.

The woman wanted to taste a few more, so Shen Yangguang took back the fruit plate and said, "I'm sorry, my wild grapes are very expensive, and each person is limited to one. If you want to eat, you have to buy it yourself." Holding the fruit plate, distribute one to each of the surrounding crowd.

The woman was not annoyed, and hurriedly said to the bald man: "You have no conscience, come here and buy a few catties, this is really delicious!"

The bald man walked over slowly, but he didn't really believe it, thinking that no matter how delicious it was, it would definitely not be worth the price.

Before the big man could say anything, the crowds around who had tasted the grapes suddenly rushed to buy grapes like crazy. Those who were close picked up wild grapes and put them in bags. Zhang's hundred-yuan bills were thrown on the counter, shouting to buy a few catties.

Seeing this situation, the woman quickly hugged the two bunches of grapes in front of her, and asked the bald man to pay quickly.

The bald-headed man thought that the crowd around him were just trustees, so he calmly picked a grape and stuffed it into his mouth, wanting to speak with the facts so that his stupid daughter-in-law would not be fooled.

After eating a wild grape, the bald man couldn't calm down anymore, he couldn't help becoming anxious when he saw the empty counter, suddenly turned over and climbed behind the counter, holding two boxes of wild grapes without letting go, nimbly like a child weighing three hundred catties Same.

After a while, the counter was as clean as a mirror, and even the few cardboard boxes were bought by the customer for ten yuan each.Many people who did not buy wild grapes kept asking, and left reluctantly after getting the reply that there would be wild grapes for sale tomorrow.

Neither Shen Yangguang nor Zheng Hao expected that the wild grapes would be robbed wildly. Seeing the 6000 yuan in their hands, they didn't know what to say.

"Our wild grapes are all sold out, right?"

"seems like it!"

"You made 6000 yuan?"

"That's right!"
