Chapter 8: The Grace of One Meal (New Book Requests Recommendation Votes)

Liu Qingshan laid out his bamboo shoots in the open space in front of the store.

It's a really good location, not exposed to the sun, no need to eat car exhaust, and there are stools to sit on.

Not long after the bamboo shoots were put away, a man in a suit came up and asked for the price, and learned that the fresh winter bamboo shoots were only sold for ten yuan a catty, so he asked for fifty yuan without thinking about it.

In the era when pork was 30 yuan a catty, winter bamboo shoots were a rare commodity that only sold for 10 yuan a catty, which was really the price of cabbage.

However, not all buyers are so happy.

Soon, Liu Qingshan met a guest who was difficult to deal with.

This is a man in a suit and leather, and his hair is still shiny. The man looked to be about thirty years old and drove a small car.

When he got out of the car, the man deliberately walked a few meters away from the car, only to suddenly look back and turn around, then took out a car key from his trouser pocket, and then exposed his slender arm with a watch from his long-sleeved shirt, and then pressed the lock button from a distance.

With the beep of the car, he showed a rather voluptuous smile.

The man walked up to Liu Qingshan's pile of bamboo shoots and asked, "How do you sell these bamboo shoots?"

Liu Qingshan replied: "Ten yuan a catty." ”

"It's so expensive, is it to peel the skin open?" the man frowned.

"No shelling. ”

"It's too expensive, fish only sells for six yuan a catty, you vegetarian sell it for ten yuan a catty, and you don't peel the shell, this is too tricky." It's cheaper, six dollars a pound, I want a lot. ”

Hearing this person say that he wanted a lot of bamboo shoots, Liu Qingshan thought to himself, I'm afraid he is a wholesaler. If it is a wholesale, of course it cannot be sold for six yuan a catty, but it can still be sold for eight yuan a catty.

After all, time is money.

Sending them all out at once and then going home to dig bamboo shoots is obviously more cost-effective than staying here for a day.

So he tentatively asked, "How much do you want?" If so, I'll give you eight dollars a pound." ”

The man was still not satisfied with the price of eight yuan, so he said, "Six yuan, six yuan for one catty, I will help you ask for two catties." ”

What's that?

How many pounds?

Liu Qingshan thought he had misheard: "How many catties do you want?"

"Two catties!" The man raised two fingers wearing sand gold rings and said, "Two catties, it is estimated that you will not be able to keep a customer like me for a day, and I will ask you for two catties of bamboo shoots at once." Nowadays, people buy vegetables for half a catty. ”

When Liu Qingshan heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh.

I don't know if this person is pretending to be stupid or really stupid.

Two catties is also called much?

Just now, the man bought five catties at once, and he didn't give anyone a discount.

This person is either extremely picky, or he has a problem with his brain.

"Ten yuan a catty, if you want it, if you don't want it, please drive your car away, don't block my business." ”

Liu Qingshan's words made the man a little unhappy.

Anyway, he is also a bank teller in the town, and he is a high-ranking person in this town, but this turtle doesn't give any face.

He was not happy in his heart, but he couldn't do anything in the face of a young man who looked fierce and black.

After all, I have been single for a long time, and my kidney has been lost, so I definitely can't beat others in a fight.

Moreover, this kind of rat at the bottom of society is the most able to bite. Thinking of this, the man had no choice but to hold his stomach and leave unhappily.

I thought, it's not just you who have winter bamboo shoots for sale, I don't believe it, it's a big deal for Lao Tzu to go to other places to see.

The beauty of winter bamboo shoots is like this, even a stingy person will try their best to get this deliciousness.

However, the reality is a bit cruel.

In this town, except for Liu Qingshan, there is really no one else selling winter bamboo shoots.

In this way, after searching the whole street, the man had to accept this cruel and helpless reality. So, he returned to Liu Qingshan in a huff.

"It can't be cheap. The man asked.

Liu Qingshan looked at him intently, didn't speak, just shook his head.

"Forget it, then, then weigh these two bamboo shoots for me. The man rummaged through the pile of bamboo shoots for a while, and finally found the two smallest bamboo shoots.

Liu Qingshan took the bamboo shoots and said directly: "Six taels, six yuan." ”

When the man heard this, he immediately took out a bank card from his wallet and asked, "Can I swipe the card?" ”

Liu Qingshan glared at him and didn't answer.

The man had no choice but to put the card back in his wallet: "Then WeChat payment." ”

Watching the man leave, the proprietress walked out and couldn't help but smile: "This is the teller of the bank, he has always looked like this." So I'm in my thirties, and I don't have a girlfriend yet. ”

Liu Qingshan said: "If I were a girl, I wouldn't have sex with this kind of person." ”

"If you look handsome, you can still consider it. The proprietress said in gold, "The problem is that his appearance is too picky, if he wants a nose without a nose, if he wants eyes without eyes, he will have a mouthful of big yellow teeth." ”

Liu Qingshan was happy.

The proprietress said, "I'll help you spread the word." I have a WeChat group, which is full of customers, hundreds of people, I will help you take a photo of the bamboo shoots and send it to the WeChat group and the circle of friends. ”

"That was great, thank you hostess. Liu Qingshan immediately tidied up his clothes and hair against the glass behind him, and wiped his face with the sleeve of his clothes.

I thought, this is about to be photogenic, I must clean up and look better, maybe I will accidentally take off the single, haha.

"Hostess, I'm ready. As he spoke, he sat on the small bench and looked at the proprietress on her mobile phone.

The proprietress wondered, "What are you ready for?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to help me get the word out?"

"Yes, I've already helped you take photos of the bamboo shoots and send them to the WeChat group and circle of friends. The proprietress flipped through her phone to show him.

I saw that the photo in the hostess's mobile phone was a bunch of bamboo shoots, and there was nothing else.

Dare to be affectionate, I am self-inflicted.

Liu Qingshan smiled awkwardly: "Hehe, it's good, it's very good." ”

Don't say it, the power of this network is really different.

After a while, many customers came to buy bamboo shoots.

Knowing that they all saw the news from the boss's WeChat group and circle of friends, Liu Qingshan was not stingy, and the little extra weighs were all hung with zero, and only the whole number was collected.

For example, a boss asked for six catties and weighed out six catties and two taels, but Liu Qingshan only received sixty.

Of course, if it is six catties and three taels, then you still have to charge sixty-three.

After all, three dollars is not a small amount. In the way of the greasy man's thinking before, this is half a catty of fish money.

However, everyone is more understanding, and they all know that the current winter bamboo shoots are not easy to dig, so no one bargains.

Even if there is, it is only the meaning, and after knowing that Liu Qingshan will not reduce the price, no one is obsessed with it.

In this way, by lunchtime, more than half of the more than 100 catties of bamboo shoots had been sold.

At this time, the sun is booming, although Liu Qingshan can't get the sun, but the astigmatism hits, which is also a little stuffy.

Especially when it's time to eat, the feeling of being hot and hungry is too uncomfortable.

What's even more hateful is that the smell coming from the powder shop and fast food restaurant on this street is too attractive.

As soon as he saw off a guest, Liu Qingshan's stomach roared, like a frog in the field in spring, screaming one after another, endlessly.

The proprietress walked out with a plate and said with a smile: "Little handsome guy, it's time to eat." ”

Liu Qingshan looked up and saw that the plate held by the proprietress was full of plates of white rice, and on top of the rice, scrambled eggs with tomatoes were also poured on top, as well as a lot of pork.

The proprietress handed the plate to Liu Qingshan: "Take it quickly, be careful of hot hands, the rice and dishes are hot." ”

At this time, Liu Qingshan's heart was hotter.

He was a little moved, holding the fragrant food, but he didn't take a bite, just looked up at the smiling proprietress and said, "Boss, I occupy your place for nothing, and eat your food for nothing, how can I repay you." ”

"Hahaha, what to answer, it's not a TV series, it's too funny to say this kind of thing. It's not easy to come out to eat, and it's from the villagers, you helped me so much in the morning, it's not a matter of course to invite you to have lunch. ”

I used to hear others say that people are beautiful and kind, and it seems that this word is really not too much to use on the boss's wife.

Liu Qingshan said: "In the future, as long as I am here, if there is any heavy work, you just have to speak, don't be polite to me, I lack everything, I just don't lack strength." ”

The proprietress was happy: "That's what you said." ”

Liu Qingshan sent a big spoonful of rice to his mouth, patted his chest and said, "What I said, the eldest husband has made a word, and the horse is difficult to chase." ”

Seeing that this little handsome guy looked a little funny, the proprietress smiled and said: "That's good, I'm really welcome in the future, if you have heavy objects to move, I'll really call you." ”

Liu Qingshan nodded vigorously while taking a big bite of food.

He was so hungry.

If he didn't have the proprietress for this plate of rice, it is estimated that he would have to be hungry until the bamboo shoots are sold before he can go home.

As for eating a fast food or eating a rice noodle or something, it doesn't exist.

Because his family has not been rich since he was a child, Liu Qingshan has become accustomed to frugality. As long as he can go home to eat, he will definitely not eat out.

I still remember when I was in junior high school, I took classes at the middle school in the town. Because he could go home on Friday afternoon, he only ate breakfast at school every Friday, and he was hungry for lunch until he came home from school in the evening.

In this way, you can save two dollars on food.

Two yuan may not be much, but for Liu Qingshan's family at that time, it was also a lot of money. After all, the family is all supported by the father, and the mother is sick and frail, and has been taking medicine for many years.

Therefore, Liu Qingshan has known since he was a child that money is a thing that can save a piece.

The proprietress saw that Liu Qingshan was eating wolf, so she didn't bother him.

In fact, she hired a male guy in the store. Although this guy's strength is not as strong as that of this handsome little guy, he is still bigger than the average person. So the menial and heavy work in the store are all done by the guys.

And the reason why she said that just now was nothing more than to let this little handsome guy eat at ease.

Look, in this world, there are bad people, but there are also pure good people.
