Chapter 9 The big customers come to the door
After two hours of bumping, the sky showed the white of the fish's belly, and finally arrived at the farmers' market.
"Yo, Chengcheng, I'm here today, and I'll give you that old seat!"
The aunt in charge had a pair of sharp eyes, and she saw Xu Xuecheng's three brothers from afar.
"Okay, thank you, Auntie, you can take these pieces of candy and try it!"
Xu Xuecheng paid the rent of two stalls this time, after all, it is 500 catties, and it takes up a lot of space there! Then he took out a handful of toffee and stuffed it into his aunt's pocket. Giving things is also an art, if you get it directly to her, she is not easy to receive, people in this era have not practiced a good hand speed of receiving gifts, how embarrassing it is to be seen by others, and stuffed directly into the pocket, that is the safest.
Sure enough, the aunt excused herself twice, "How embarrassing is this, and you still eat your little baby's candy," Seeing Xu Xuecheng pressing her pocket and not letting her take it out, she didn't say anything anymore, with a smile on her face, she handed three small benches out of the small door next to her,
"Take it, stand in the morning legs and feet are going to be soft, sit and rest when no one is around, I heard that the people from the county guest house came to purchase today, I am familiar with them, I will ask them if they want winter mushrooms later!"
The aunt got a handful of candy, and was coaxed by Xu Xuecheng with a few sweet words, patting her chest to pull acquaintances to patronize the little brother's business.
"Okay, then thank you Auntie, I'm over there, you can say hello if you have something!" Xu Xuecheng received the booth ticket and went back with three small benches.
Set up, open a stall, this time with three brothers, Xu Xue's achievements are much easier, Xu Xuede is very enthusiastic, there are scattered people to come, there is no need for him to make a move, with Xu Xueyou two, one sells, one person says, after a while, it will also sell dozens of catties, and the gross tickets are neatly organized, packed in a small cloth pocket!
The day is getting brighter, there are more people buying vegetables, there are also board trucks and tractors coming and going to pull goods in and out, the stalls of the three brothers are also busy, greeting a few "big customers", all of them are the first batch of small restaurants, many of them are time-honored brands in later generations, such as "Yuquan Hotel" and "Diaozhang Hotel!" ”
Speaking of this carved seal hotel, it is also an interesting story in the county, saying that the owner of this hotel turned out to be the county to engrave a seal, we call this "carved seal", the engraving will generally not be good for a while, can not let the guests wait silly, this boss often keeps people to eat in the store.
That's the "carving chapter" are some public family, but don't worry about money, at the beginning of the meal to leave some rice tickets meat tickets or something, and then leave some gross tickets, the boss of the last total, carving chapters are not as much as the money for this meal, simply opened a small restaurant next to their carving shop, it is called "carving chapter restaurant" later in the county also opened a few branches, carving chapters have become a sideline!
Xu Xuecheng was talking with an aunt, two guys, a fat and a thin guy, walked in at the door, the fat one rode a tricycle, and the thin one sat in the back.
"Yo, it's so early, the little brother is here!" The fat guy threw the tricycle to that moment and jumped down with a sack.
"Yes, fat brother, you came here again today, I haven't seen you for a few days and you're a little fatter!" At this time, it is not embarrassing to say that people are fat, this is a serious boast of people, this era can grow into such a fat person, that is a "blessing", how can ordinary people have this body shape!
The fat man grinned, "Don't call me fat brother, my surname is Zhou, call me Da Zhou!" ”
"Okay, this winter mushroom is fresh and dried, Brother Da Zhou will have some today?"
"Come on, it's 10 pounds as dry and wet, and the price hasn't changed, right?" The fat man took the sack and asked Xu Xuecheng to pretend to be famous.
"It hasn't changed, the dry three hairs, the wet two hairs, you will be affected first, and you will be weighed immediately!" There will be more people, and a pole is too busy, Xu Xuecheng asked Xuede to look at the stall, and his younger brother Xueyou helped take care of the money, and went to the aunt in charge to see if he could borrow the pole and weigh it first.
When I walked to the window, I ran into my aunt and two young people.
"Yo, Cheng Cheng is here, look, these two are my nephews, who are doing procurement in the county guest house, this will be their leader saying to buy some wild mushrooms to change the food, I just want to take them to your place to have a look!"
Xu Xuecheng took a look, big customer, this guest house is now the canteen of the county cadres, if you open this door, just this one, at least 100 catties a day! Quickly took out the "red plum" stuffed in his pocket, and scattered one by one.
"Brother, smoke a cigarette!"
When the aunt saw Xu Xuecheng take out a cigarette, she turned her waist up, "Chengcheng, you are young, how did you learn the bad habit of smoking?!" ”
Xu Xuecheng hurriedly explained, "Auntie is not, when I walk outside, I put a bag in my pocket for others to scatter, I don't smoke it myself!" ”
The aunt put her hand down at this time, and said to a flat-headed young man next to her, "This Chengcheng is also my nephew, which stall is different for the food in your guest house, so you can get it from your own people."
The flat-headed young man also nodded, "Okay, auntie, listen to you!" ”
Xu Xuecheng went to his aunt to borrow a scale, and took the two of them to his stall, chatting while walking.
"Brother, how many vegetables can we consume in this guest house in a day?"
"Not necessarily, usually green leafy vegetables have to buy three or five hundred catties a day, we take them together in the canteen in H County, I brought some mushrooms before, and the leader likes it, I don't come to find it several times, there is no stable source, and we are in a hurry!" Xiao Pingtou's name is Ye Zhaoxin, he is from the county, and he has relatives who work in the county, so he has arranged a procurement position, which can be regarded as eating public food!
"Oh, that's it! I have it, I have it, it's enough, it's not a problem to get you one or two hundred catties a day! Xu Xuecheng saw that his smoke was extinguished, so he hurriedly refilled it and refilled it for the one next to him.
"So many? I want it every day, it doesn't matter if it's broken for a day or two, you can't cut off the goods for me for too long! Ye Zhaoxin expressed doubts, after all, Xu Xuecheng would look too tender, at the age of twelve, he looked like a bamboo pole, and he looked like he was in his early fifties, which was the age of "no hair on his mouth and no good work".
"No problem, I'm selling it for our village commune, and I'll show you a certificate then!" Let's go to my stall first."
Xu Xuecheng led the two to the stall, three or four people who bought winter mushrooms were bargaining with Xu Xuede, and an aunt insisted that Xu Xuede sell it to her, but she didn't leave, and stopped at the stall to chatter.
Xu Xuede has never seen this, the person who used to let him greet him with a twist and pinch, although it is much better now, but he also stood there at a loss, and said vigorously, "What can't be sold, what can't be sold, Xuecheng said that the price can't be changed, Xuecheng, Xuecheng You're back, you see..."
"Auntie's price can't be cheaper, don't embarrass our children, in this way, I'll spare you two taels after you buy it, can you see it?" Xu Xuecheng took over.
"You're quite good at doing things, okay, that's it!"
Xu Xuecheng hurriedly weighed two catties of dried winter mushrooms for his aunt, grabbed another handful and put it in her basket, and handed six cents to Xu Xuede, "Oh, it's okay, I'll get used to seeing a lot, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds!" ”
Xu Xuede touched his head and smiled, "You still have a way" and then slapped his brother's bald head hard, and hurriedly said, what are you in a daze.
Jacky Xu touched his head to avoid the side, and muttered "I don't have the ability to beat me if I don't have the ability" Seeing Xu Xuede slap again, he hurriedly jumped to the other side, "Okay, okay, I'm wrong!" The two brothers stopped.
"Look, it's all such a big flower, and the moisture is also less, others have 4 cents, we have 3 cents, and the wet ones are 2 cents, it's okay!" Xu Xuecheng took a few and handed them to Ye Zhaoxin to see.
"Well, okay, it's the same quality as this one, 3 cents, it's all going to be done, take 100 catties a day, send it to the county guest house, and I'll take it back today!"
"Well, but I have to go back and make arrangements, and the day after tomorrow I will start sending you to the guest house, and I will load the car for you first!"
"Howler!"
Xu Xuecheng weighed Ye Zhaoxin a hundred catties of dry, and together with Jacky Xu's brothers, one person and one bag threw Ye Zhaoxin's small three wheels.
