Xu Wan looked at the lively scene, and she was also happy in her heart, since her eldest brother was sick, she hadn't visited the market, so she hadn't been here for a long time.

Xu Wan excitedly introduced to Tong Xue, "Sister-in-law, we are lucky, today is a big set, and there are many more people coming than a small set." ”

Xu Wenyuan found a place, put the tofu on the ground, and stood there, hoping that someone would come over to take a look.

In order to keep the tofu tender, the prepared tofu is covered with a cloth curtain, and it rests on the ground, so not many people can see it at all.

It's been like this for a long time, and no one has come to ask how tofu is sold, at the beginning, Xu Wan was still calm, but as time went by, looking at more and more people, no one paid attention to her tofu, and she began to become anxious.

The Xu family, although it is said that life is hard, but in the end, it is because they have read and read since childhood, and they have the reserve of a family of cultivation and reading, although their ears are full of the voices of various hawkers, but when they come here, they can't open their mouths in the end.

Tong Xue cut a piece of tofu with a plate neatly, then divided it into small pieces and put it on the side, and then shouted in an open voice, "Don't miss it when you pass by, fresh tender tofu, taste it first and buy it later." ”

As soon as Tong Xue spoke, Xu Wenyuan and Xu Wan both looked at her in shock, probably because they didn't expect Tong Xue to let go so loudly.

Xu Wenyuan heard Tong Xue's words and asked, "What if someone eats it and doesn't buy it, won't we lose money." ”

Although Tong Xue has never tasted the taste of tofu in the town, she is confident in the tofu she makes, as long as she wants to weigh some tofu and eat it at home, after tasting her tofu, she will definitely make the right choice.

As for those who have never thought of buying at all, even if they give her a taste, the loss is not large, but it may even develop into potential buyers.

After listening to Tong Xue's explanation, Xu Wenyuan thought about it, although this point of view is novel, but it really makes some sense.

Hearing Tong Xue start shouting, Xu Wan was embarrassed not to open her mouth as before, and also started shouting next to Tong Xue, when she shouted for the first time, Xu Wan's ears were red, and her voice was not much stronger than that of a mosquito.

However, everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as it is opened, I feel that this seemingly extremely difficult thing does not seem to be anything, Xu Wan's nervous heart slowly relaxed, and her voice slowly became louder.

Xu Wenda's analysis is correct, many people in the market are reluctant to buy meat, so they will cut some tofu, no matter what, they have to buy something to satisfy their hunger.

So Tong Xue and the others started shouting, and someone came to see it.

It's just that everyone buys tofu at the tofu shop in the town on weekdays, and the first time I saw it sold like this at the market, I didn't dare to buy it rashly.

After all, whether a pound of soybeans is out of three catties of tofu or four catties of tofu is different, the quality of tofu is very different, and the taste is far worse.

However, Tong Xue said that tasting before buying, which makes people feel fresh and much more relieved.

After a while, a woman in her thirties walked towards Tong Xue, "I heard what you just yelled to taste before buying, can I taste it first?" ”

Tong Xue immediately handed over the cut tofu, and the woman nodded, as if she thought it tasted good, and then asked, "How is this tofu sold?" ”

"Three pennies a pound." Tong Xue blurted out and stopped Xu Wenyuan and Xu Wan from talking.

They also discussed this issue yesterday, and they felt that it was more appropriate to buy it cheaper than the one in the store, but Tong Xue thought of Xu Wenda's words yesterday and changed her mind.

Since this tofu was in short supply at the time of the big set, and the tofu she made was so delicious, why did she have to lower her price.

Sure enough, when Tong Xue spoke, the woman frowned, "Why is it so expensive, people's tofu shops have been open for many years, and they are all time-honored brands for so many years, and they only sell for three yuan." ”

Tong Xue looked at the woman with a smile, "Eldest sister, you have also tasted my tofu, the taste is no worse than that of the time-honored brand, the craftsmanship of making tofu is the same, why can't it be sold for three cents." ”

Tong Xue said this, which made the woman a little unhappy, they came to the market, just to get cheap, but this stall is selling the same as in the store.

If it weren't for the fact that the tofu in the tofu shop was always sold out early at every big gathering, she wouldn't have come to see it when she heard someone say that tofu was sold.

Although Tong Xue didn't know what the woman was thinking about standing there, she seemed to really want tofu, so she enthusiastically pulled the woman and said, "Sister, I'm not blowing, my skills in making tofu are also very good, you have just tasted this tofu, and you will never regret buying it." My younger siblings love it. And eldest sister, you are our first guest today, I will give you a discount, if you buy two catties, I will count you five cents. ”

When the woman heard this, she could save a penny by buying two catties, and if you calculated it in this way, it was indeed cheaper, and it sounded like a good deal, so she immediately said, "Then bring me two catties." ”

Tong Xue happily cut the tofu, it was cut according to the feeling of cutting the tofu before, although it has not been done for many years, it is a little raw, but it should not be much worse.

As a result, when she put the tofu on the scale, Tong Xue was a little confused, she couldn't use this scale.

This scale is a scale commonly used in ancient times, and the lever principle used, to put it bluntly, is a rod with a scale on one side and something on the other, so that the two sides are flat, and then read the weight on the scale.

This is easy to say, but the operation is not so simple, the point is that the scale rod is full of dots, and Tong Xue has not understood how to read this kind of scale since she was a child.

Because the distribution of dots on the scale bar is uneven, it is very different from the scale of the balance commonly used today.

Tong Xue could only stare dryly when she looked at it, and then poked Xu Wenyuan beside her, "Wenyuan, what are you doing in a daze, hurry up and weigh the eldest sister." ”
