twenty-one

When the two of them ate about the same, the sky also brightened, and there were a lot of people coming and going, noisy and shouting, but most of the people were used to buying things that they were used to eating before, Lin Baitang Although there were many people watching here, there were few who really bought.

Lin Baitang was actually mentally prepared that she would not be able to sell, so she was not in a hurry, but she knew that Meng Zhenghui needed money now, so she was afraid that he would be in a hurry, so she had to look back at Meng Zhenghui's expression every once in a while.

Meng Zhenghui was a little inexplicable by her, and every time Lin Baitang looked at him, he always had to give him an innocent look.

Lin Baitang is actually not used to saying what he is worried about, the more he is like this to the people close to him, it is really more difficult to ask her to say something from her heart than to take her life, so he pretended not to see Meng Zhenghui's doubts at this time, and took the initiative to stand up and greet him: "Don't miss it when you pass by, fresh wild vegetable dumplings, add vegetable oil, use the best shiitake mushrooms, bite down and spray fragrant, put it for two or three days without breaking it, go out at home, it is necessary to work." ”

As the old saying goes, good wine is not afraid of deep alleys, which means that as long as your things are good enough, even if you don't send them to the door and don't drink them, as long as the wine is good, there will naturally be people looking for the taste of wine to buy it, but the basic condition for this is that others must know that your wine is good first.

Meng Zhenghui can't shout, and he can't open his mouth, but Lin Baitang doesn't care so much, she has seen too many methods of small vendors to attract people, so she will learn it according to the gourd painting scoop at this time, and it doesn't matter if it's right or not, it's better than waiting anyway.

But don't say it, Lin Baitang's shouting really attracted a few people, although he just looked around and didn't buy it, it was indeed a little popular.

A richly dressed woman stood outside the crowd looking at the things on the table, and suddenly asked, "Are you making your own wild vegetable dumplings?"

"Yes, do you want to taste it?" Lin Baitang said as he handed over the previous cut by Meng Zhenghui.

The woman was not polite, reached out and pinched a piece and put it in her mouth.

She ate unpleasantly, not like she was tasting something, but like she was remembering something through the wild vegetable dumplings at this point, chewing and chewing, she suddenly laughed: "This is much better than what we ate at the beginning." ”

The woman looked like she should be forty years old, but when she smiled, she had a little girlish brilliance: "How can this be sold?"

A sentence stopped Lin Baitang, she turned her head to look at Meng Zhenghui, the two of them just thought about how to make wild vegetable dumplings faster, how could they bring them over cleanly, as for the price, they really didn't think about it.

If it is set high, I am afraid that it will be a hammer deal, and if it is set less, I am afraid that the effort will not be enough.

Meng Zhenghui turned his heart a few times and smiled: "You can watch it." ”

The woman didn't expect such an answer, and raised her eyebrows: "You don't look like a businessman, so you're not afraid that I will give less, and you won't be able to make money back?"

Meng Zhenghui responded to her gaze, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "You don't look like that kind of person. ”

The woman took out a few bills from her delicate little bag and handed them over: "I said wrong, you are definitely a material for doing business, and two sentences have set me a place, so that I can't give less if I want to." ”

As she spoke, the woman picked out two packets of dumplings and carried them in her hands, and asked, "When will you come next time?"

Lin Baitang also saw those banknotes, which were far higher than the price of the two packs of dumplings, and it could even be said that it was more than enough to buy this table of dumplings, which would take a few more times, and it was not distributed.

So at this time, when I heard that the customer seemed to want to be a long-term customer, I immediately got up and wanted to say that I would come every day, but Meng Zhenghui had already opened his mouth: "This is really not necessarily, we are also doing it for the first time, and we have to see if it is sold." ”

The woman's expression became serious because of this, she carefully examined the remaining dumplings on the table, and suddenly pulled out another dozen money from her purse, and said in a firm tone: "Wrap it all up for me." ”

If you want to say that the stone is shocked, it is nothing more than that, the woman's words are like water droplets falling into the oil pot, and the pot exploded with a bang, and the people around the onlookers couldn't help but whisper.

The woman seemed to have long been accustomed to being in the limelight, even if everyone whispered like this, it didn't affect any of her emotions, and her attention was only on the dumplings on the table: "You guys take care of it, right?"

Meng Zhenghui didn't expect a simple answer to provoke such an astonishing answer, and he stayed for two moments before answering: "It's just a ......."

The woman was probably used to talking, and she didn't wait for Meng Zhenghui to finish speaking, she directly took out a dozen business cards in her bag and handed it to Meng Zhenghui: "No, this is the address, send it over, and say that it was ordered by their wife." ”

Meng Zhenghui glanced at it quickly, the business card was very concise, there was not much description, only a simple address, plus the name and address of the Gu Mansion.

But although this business card is concise, it makes people who know a little bit not dare to underestimate it at first sight, after all, if there is no status right, who dares to print a business card like this.

Mrs. Gu is a neat and neat person, and she was about to leave after giving the business card here, Meng Zhenghui hurriedly stopped her: "Madam, wait a minute, I mean, although you can give it away, you can't buy too much." ”

The woman stopped, pinched the delicate little bag and looked back, as if asking, "I didn't give enough money?"

Her expression didn't change much, but her tone was already a little displeased, she thought that Meng Zhenghui was planning to ask for more money.

Of course, she knew that the price she gave was far higher than the price of the wild vegetable dumplings themselves, but because she was willing to give them, she didn't feel anything, but if it became blackmailed, she would be a little unhappy.

Lin Baitang was very sensitive to the perception of people's tone, and instantly realized that the woman's tone was wrong, and hurriedly took over the words and smiled: "I don't mean this, we are afraid that there are too many wild vegetable dumplings, you can't eat them, and when the time comes, it will be wasted, which is not good, after all, it is all made of grain, and everyone is distressed." ”

After hearing the reason, Mrs. Gu smiled: "You don't have to worry about this, I know this thing better than the two of you, maybe when I make my own wild vegetable dumplings, the two of you haven't been born yet." ”

Because she is indeed much older than Lin Baitang and Meng Zhenghui, this is reasonable and will not be annoying.

After Mrs. Gu finished speaking, she added: "Okay, don't persuade me, I don't want to change what I decided." You remember to send it to me, if you dare to be lazy and can't slip away, you can regret it. ”

After she finished speaking, she tilted her head and turned away.

This time she walked faster, as if she was afraid that Meng Zhenghui would stop her again.

The woman has a little bit of natural coercion that has been in a high position for a long time, so when she spoke, everyone unconsciously quieted down, and after she left, the people next to her dared to start discussing slowly.

A bespectacled man asked his companion next to him, "Is this the eldest lady of Commander Gu's family?"

The companion scoffed: "How can it, if it's the wife of the commander's family, how can she come out and buy things by herself." ”

The two of them were chatting here, but a merchant who was picking up things and selling things quit, and leaned over to explain: "You don't know, the eldest lady and Commander Gu both grew up locally, so even after they made their careers, they all lived as before, at most, they changed to a big courtyard, and they didn't bully our people like other commanders at all." ”

Someone else echoed him and went to scold the man who said that the commander's wife would definitely not buy her own vegetables: "If it weren't for the commander's wife, who do you think would have spent so much money to buy something to eat, and the average white family would dare to spend so much money? ”

This sentence resonated with a group of people, and everyone sighed: "Isn't it, the price of her buying something this time is worth our family's chewing for a year." ”

"Yes, people haven't bought it this time, listen to that, if she comes again next time, she will have to buy it. ”

There was a lot of discussion, but there was a lot of discussion, and in the final analysis, everyone began to be curious about one thing, that is, whether this wild vegetable dumpling had to be delicious, and the wife of the commander only tasted it and bought it all.

Although I just heard the commander's wife say that she wanted all the wild vegetable dumplings, someone walked over with a little luck and asked, "Eh, little girl, do you still have any wild vegetable dumplings, let's buy some and try them." ”

Lin Baitang was busy packing the things that the lady wanted, and replied without raising his head at this time: "No, all of them have been wrapped up by the wife just now." ”

As soon as she finished saying this, she listened to the sighs of regret from everyone in the crowd.

Lin Baitang thought about it, her eyes fell on the two broken wild vegetable dumplings cut on the table, she thought, just listened to what those people meant, the woman just now is the commander's wife, in Tianjin, it can be regarded as a well-known figure, this broken one has been on the street for so long, they may not be able to look at it, instead of sending it over and asking them to throw it again, it is better to do it at this moment.

Lin Baitang thought about it, so he put the broken ones in a place that was convenient for everyone to take: "The whole thing is gone, there are a few cuts here, if you are curious, try this." ”

From the beginning, this wild vegetable dumpling has whetted everyone's appetite, and now some of them are eaten, where can they still care about the whole or cut, and they are scrambling to get it.

There was a person who was probably afraid of being deceived, and he hesitated at this time and didn't dare to stretch out his hand, and asked, "Does this cost money?"

When he asked, almost all the people who went to get the dumplings stopped in mid-air.

Everyone has seen how much these dumplings have been sold just now, and if it is at that price, not to mention the quarter, even if it is cut into eighths, they can't afford to eat it.

Lin Baitang was a little helpless when he heard this question, but he could also understand: "Don't worry, this was originally cut and tasted, how can there be any reason to ask for money." ”

got her promise, but everyone still didn't dare to rest assured, and turned their heads to look at Meng Zhenghui, after all, usually the head of the family is a man, in case they listen to the words of the female shopkeeper and eat something, the man over there will ask for money again......

Meng Zhenghui and Lin Baitang glanced at each other, a little funny, and said busily: "These few pieces really don't cost money, everyone can taste them with confidence." ”

After a pause, Meng Zhenghui added: "She has the final say in our family, and I also listen to her." ”
