The bazaar in the town under the mountain is always lively and lively every festival, and the old farmers of the nearby ten miles and eight towns always rush to the market in groups, sell some valuable goods, and also buy some goods that they need by the way, so the things in the bazaar are dazzling, many good things that are not usually seen in the city are here, pheasants, hares, wild boar, and other mountain delicacies are also a lot, and the farmers brew their own grain wine, honey, chili sauce, tofu, and various side dishes and pickles. There are also many people in the city who take a fancy to the market and bring all kinds of daily necessities such as vegetables and clothes, in short, there is everything you need here.

Because you need to go to the market early, the earlier you go, the fresher the things you can buy, and the more room you can choose, so everyone usually starts to eat breakfast in the market early.

He Kun followed his grandfather's footsteps to a small stall selling pot stickers, the burnt fragrance was overflowing, and a pot of rich and tumbling mutton soup was boiling on the side of the pot stickers. He Kun, who was already hungry, couldn't bear it. After asking Grandpa how much he needed, he began to order.

"Boss, 2 potstickers, 15 each, 30 serving. Two more bowls of mutton soup with meat. ”

"Okay, go in and sit, I'll be right there." The boss responded cheerfully

In the past few years in GX, He Kun has not been very suitable for the diet over there, and the most nostalgic for his hometown is the potstickers, although they also have them, but they are not the same thing at all, the potstickers over there can only be said to be fried dumplings and more appropriate.

The potstickers here are all kneaded strongly, rolled into a thick dough with a thick bottom and then wrapped with a secret meat filling and soup stock, pinched into a neat and tidy shape of the rules, and are also very particular when frying in the pot, constantly rotating the pot plate, adding water and oil, especially the control of the heat must have a deep effort. In this way, the potstickers after the pot are delicious, the two sides are golden yellow, the entrance is chewy, the bottom is gray-brown and crispy and the oil is full, but there is no bit of paste taste, take a bite, the soup overflows with the breach, and the fragrance overflows. It's delicious. Take another sip of the rich mutton soup, and the taste is simply not enough.

After choosing a seat with his grandfather, He Kun began to mix the dipping sauce anxiously, and after a while, the freshly baked potstickers were served along with the mutton soup, and He Kun, who couldn't wait, immediately began to chew vigorously, and the old man who watched shook his head with a smile.

"Look at you're hungry, and you've only walked so far to become like this." The old man said to He Kun while eating potstickers.

"Well, I've been eating a lot lately, and I'm hungry. Hey, grandpa, where are you going to buy things later? Since He Kun drank the spring water every day, his body has become stronger and stronger. It looks very energetic, but then there is a big increase in the amount of food, it used to be basically a bowl just right, but recently every 3 bowls of each meal can not be beaten, the happy grandmother applauded, and kept saying "to eat is a blessing".

"I'll work with the people in the village in a while, buy it cheaper, you can just go around by yourself, just go back early." After Grandpa had eaten breakfast, he gave a few words of advice, and then picked up the flat pole and basket and flashed into the crowd.

There are 4 streets in the market. A vegetable market, a street specializing in department stores, a street selling various electrical appliances and clothing, and a street and alley selling groceries and snacks. Although the sparrow is small, it has all kinds of organs. An ordinary mountain village and town, but it is also neatly divided. The flow of people rushing to the market goes to different markets according to their respective needs.

He Kun was idle after eating breakfast, so he walked around alone, his ears were full of familiar country sounds, boiling and very lively. I chose a random street and walked around, stopping and stopping along the way, looking at the novelty and stopping to look at it for a while. Hand-woven dustpans, baskets, vegetable baskets, bamboo carved pen holders, ornaments and other handicrafts are dazzling. He Kun watched it, and his psychology was itchy.

Approaching a booth with wood carving ornaments, He Kun picked up a finely carved and three-dimensional round carving ornament, which is a round carving of a tiger's head carved from walnut wood, with a realistic, vivid and expressive demeanor, and the domineering spirit of the king of the mountains and forests of the tiger is profoundly carved. It can be seen that the skills of this wood carver are quite refined. Without decades of hard work, it will never come out.

"Master, this tiger head has a lot of money?" He Kun picked up the tiger head wood carving and asked the boss for the price.

"This, this one is quite laborious, it took a few days to carve out, if the young man likes 50 yuan, take it" The old man smiled kindly, grinning and showing his smoky yellow teeth. That's good at the bazaar. It's not like a supermarket, everyone is asking prices all over the sky, and they are bargaining. You call yours, I pay back mine, it's good if you can talk about it, and if you can't talk about it, it won't hurt you.

"Old man, what you shouted is too scary, everyone is a local, give a real price." He Kun said with a disapproving face.

The old man glanced at He Kun and said with suspicion, "Young man, this really doesn't make any money." Just earn personal labor expenses, if you really like it, give a minimum of 30 yuan. "It's clear that I don't believe that you are a local, and I don't want to kill people.

He Kun has been outside for several years, and his accent has not completely changed for a while, and it is all some local accents mixed with Mandarin, no wonder others don't believe it.

But He Kun really took a fancy to this tiger head wood carving, but he knew that the other party was killing people and stretching his head over again, and he was not stupid enough to do so. So He Kun said a little annoyedly, "Uncle, what about the children, just put this thing on the wholesale market for a few dollars." Do you believe it or not? We're almost celebrating the New Year, and we're going to take a fancy to it. When I'm a big guy. 10 yuan, if you don't sell it, forget it" He Kun was in a hurry, and a mouthful of hometown dialect came out. The old man was stunned.

"Uh......, hehe, isn't this about the New Year? I just want to make a little money, since we are all from my hometown, that's good. 10 yuan is 10 yuan, or you can see if there is anything else you like, hey, you really don't make any money, just take it as you say, young man. The New Year's picture is festive, "The old man saw that this kid was really not from other places." It also dispelled the mind of the big slaughterer.

He Kun spent 10 yuan to buy this tiger head, played with it carefully, there was no damage, paid for it with satisfaction, looked at the other wood carvings and didn't like anything, and got up and left. I didn't see the sly smile in the corner of the old man's eyes at all. This thing is machine-processed, and it doesn't cost much to wholesale it, and it usually earns 2 yuan a piece, but I don't see He Kun wearing it very carefully, so he asked for a ruthless price, "Hehe, sample, you're still tender." ”

He Kun thought that he was also a good price, and he was happy, touching the tiger head wood carving in his pocket, the more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and he felt that the carving was more fine, and it was definitely not worth the price outside, so he picked up a big leak.

After walking a few steps, He Kun saw that there was a honey vendor in front of him who was doing experiments to attract everyone, and he felt that it was quite interesting, so he came over to watch.

"Big guy come and see, my family has been raising bees for more than ten years, and they are all conscience honey, rest assured honey, and now there are too many adulterated honey in the city, and there are so many methods that people can't prevent it. Therefore, today I will teach you the most effective way to distinguish the purity of honey, and I hope everyone can eat good honey and real honey.

"First scoop up some honey with an iron spoon, not too much, and heat it underneath with a lighter until the honey in the spoon boils, taking care not to burn the honey. Then let it cool down in cool water, also being careful not to let the water in. When the honey is completely cold, the honey in the spoon is thin and soft, that is, good honey, without any added honey. On the contrary, if it is hard, it is definitely honey mixed with sugar, which is absolutely reliable. After that, he picked up the honey after the experiment just now and let everyone look at it.

He Kun saw that the color of the cooled honey had not changed, and the softness was even thinner than before it was heated. Another adulterated honey. The color is already a little dark, and a little hard. I heard everyone applauding. He Kun couldn't help but follow the public's meaning.
