Chapter 14: Selling Peaches

There were no pedestrians on the streets in the sweltering heat of the afternoon, only the constant chirping of the trees, as if the hotter the weather, the happier the little ones became. A breeze blows, bringing people not coolness, but another burst of heat, the wind is like the hot air blowing out of the hair dryer, and like the exhaust gas removed from the air conditioner, which makes the few pedestrians on the road more irritable, and can't help but speed up the pace.

Zhong Huan pushed the empty three wheels out of the building group against the sun, and found a quiet and unmanned alley after turning around. The heat of the weather was nothing to Zhong Huan, who liked to exercise outdoors, but he was glad that the sweltering weather had cleared the streets of people and given him the opportunity to use the Ten Thousand Beast Gu.

Look left and right, and make sure that there is no one around. Zhong Huan's heart moved, and the big peach stored in the storage hall appeared on the tricycle. Because it was the first time to trade, Zhong Huan didn't have a bottom in his heart, and he didn't dare to take out too many peaches, so he only piled up more than 20 peaches on the tricycle, about fifty or sixty catties, all to test the water. Regardless of whether he loses money or earns, Zhong Huan is not distressed.

Pulling the rainproof cloth covering the tricycle and covering the peaches, Zhong Huan stepped on the tricycle and rode to the downtown area.

The city is divided into five districts: eastern, southern, western, northern, and central, and there are four suburbs in the surrounding area. In terms of prosperity, of course, the downtown area, whether it is the government building or the financial street, is in this area.

Changjie Market is the only large-scale comprehensive wholesale market in the downtown area, located on the edge of the downtown area, at the junction with the southern district of the city. It mainly supplies the material procurement of government agencies, enterprises and institutions, and also provides convenience for residents living in the city center to shop. Being able to open a store in the Long Street Market shows that Jia Jia and her father do have some skills.

The southern district of the city where Zhong Huan lives is a residential area, and this point in the afternoon is when there are few people. But the farther you go to the city center, the more cars there are on the road. When Zhong Huan rode to the road of the Long Street Market, the motor vehicles were blocked on the non-motorized lanes, and the tricycle naturally couldn't move, so Zhong Huan had to get out of the car and push forward.

"Young man, you're big enough to pull this peach. How do you sell it? ”

Zhong Huan was walking forward when he heard someone on the sidewalk next to him asking. As soon as he turned around, he saw a gray-haired old man looking at his car, and several pedestrians next to him also stopped and looked at him curiously. Looking at the car again, the tarpaulin covering the peaches was lifted by the wind at some point, and a quarter of the peaches were already revealed.

"Five...... Fifty dollars a piece. Zhong Huan was suddenly asked about the price, he didn't even prepare the scales, so naturally he couldn't weigh the pounds, so he had to be bold enough to quote a unit price.

"Are you quoting a delivery price or a retail price?" A middle-aged man with a shy stomach, wearing a silk shirt and holding a folding fan in his hand asked.

Zhong Huan didn't seem to be too expensive when he heard this person's tone, and his eyes rolled and said, "I'm going to deliver goods to people." ”

"The lad speaks more quickly. Do you sell these peaches alone? What price? The old man who asked before seemed to have the heart to buy it, so he asked.

"Hey, hey~ You want to sell things to get out of the way, don't get in the way, okay?" The pedestrians behind saw that Zhong Huan didn't leave, and they talked to the pedestrians on the sidewalk and couldn't help urging.

"I'm sorry!" Zhong Huan apologized and pushed Sanlun onto the sidewalk on the side of the road, then nodded to the old man and said, "Sell it alone, my peach is expensive when it enters the store, and at least one must be sold for ......."

"Stop! Stop! No matter how expensive the store is, it has nothing to do with you. It also costs a lot of money to pack water and electricity belts in other people's houses. Look at your car of peaches, they don't even have a package, and they don't look good when they are given away. It's fifty-one, I want eight, you just say whether to sell or not, right? The middle-aged man with the fan interrupted Zhong Huan while fanning the wind. The tone is like a rich and honest look, but in the final analysis, it is still bargaining.

"Hmm...... Sold! Anyway, I will earn so much from whoever I sell. Zhong Huan pretended to hesitate on the surface, but his heart blossomed. He really didn't expect the big peach produced by the Ten Thousand Beasts Gu to sell so well, and it was a good start before it entered the market, and it seemed that the price he quoted was still low.

"Then I'll have two too." The old man saw that the middle-aged man said the price to death, so he hurriedly followed.

"Okay~" Zhong Huan agreed to uncover the rainproof cloth covered with peaches and prepare to load peaches, but suddenly found that not only did he not bring a scale, but he didn't even have a plastic bag, so he couldn't help but be embarrassed and said: "Look, I'm delivering it to someone, and I haven't prepared a pocket." ”

"It's okay! Put it in my bag. I'm going to want these two. The old man opened the non-woven bag for grocery shopping, pointed to two large peaches of more than two catties and said.

"I'll buy you a pocket, and I'll give you the money, and you can keep a peach for me!" Don't sell it to me. ”

The middle-aged man has no pockets in his hands, and he can't take away the eight big peaches empty-handed. I thought I had seized the opportunity, but I didn't expect to cheapen the old man next to me, which made the middle-aged man a little depressed. He picked out eight peaches and put them in a pile, then slapped the money in Zhong Huan's hand and ran to the market. The food bags in the market can buy 100 for five yuan, and he wants to spend a little money to keep the big peaches he picked.

"Done! Thank you, big brother. Zhong Huan felt a little unreal when he took the money, he didn't expect 500 yuan to be so easy to get, and he was paid for three days of hard work on the construction site.

"I'll buy one, lad."

"I'm going to have a taste too."

Residents who can live in the downtown area are not poor for money, and besides, such a big peach is indeed quite rare, maybe it is a new variety, and they want to buy it back and try it. If it's a catty, I'm afraid no one has grabbed it yet, but it's different if you buy it by one, and it's obvious that you pick it first and take advantage of it. And a total of more than 20 peaches have been sold, and ten have already been sold, and if you don't grab them, I'm afraid they will be gone.

Zhong Huan is called a happy person in his heart, collecting money and looking for money, and he is very busy. Most of the people who buy peaches in the back are ordinary citizens, and most of them buy one or two early adopters, and it doesn't matter if they have pockets or not.

Lin Wenjing came out of the market with the vegetables she had just bought, and saw a circle of people next to a tricycle. There were a lot of people in the crowd who paid money, and there were more onlookers, and she didn't know what was being sold, so she walked over curiously.

"Aunt Zhang, it's rare to see such a big peach, why don't you buy one and try it." A middle-aged woman who had just finished buying peaches squeezed out of the crowd, apparently meeting an acquaintance and saying hello.

"It's Xiao Liu. I look at this peach, but our old man is allergic to peaches and doesn't dare to buy it. Aunt Zhang stood in the crowd and watched for a long time, but she was still hesitating. The wife of the family is allergic on the one hand, and the price is too expensive is also a factor, and not everyone is willing to pay 50 yuan to buy a peach.

"Don't let Uncle Li eat it. Look at it, such a beautiful peach, even if you don't eat it, you can't be happy. Let me tell you, this young man who sells peaches is straightforward, and he sells it at wholesale prices. When the peach arrived at the market, it was labeled and put in a paper bag, and it couldn't be taken down without a hundred yuan. I just heard that this variety is imported, what is it called Shou Peach. You don't look like the peach in the hand of the old birthday star. Aunt Liu couldn't help but show herself up with the big peach she had just picked in her hand, as if she was an old birthday star.

"It's just too pretty. I'm afraid that the old man can't help but be greedy when he sees it. Aunt Zhang was even more tempted by what she said.

"I'll teach you a trick. You just said that you bought it for your grandson, no matter how greedy Uncle Li is, can he still rob his grandson? Aunt Liu beckoned.

"That's it! I'll buy one and try it back. Aunt Zhang was finally moved by the words, and began to squeeze into the crowd.

Lin Wenjing listened clearly on the side, and she also saw the big peach in Aunt Liu's hand, which was indeed pink and lovely. In particular, the auspicious name of Shou Tao is the most attractive to her. Today she came out to buy groceries because her mother had a birthday, and she wanted to cook a meal for her mother to celebrate. If such a longevity peach can be placed on the dinner table, the mother who loves peaches must be very happy.

Thinking of this, Lin Wenjing took out the money, fifty-one peaches are indeed not cheap, but it is worth it to make her mother have a happy birthday, so she will be used as a birthday gift. Her original plan was to buy a bouquet of flowers as a gift, but with her mother's thrifty character, she must have felt that the flowers were flashy, and it was better to buy a good-looking and affordable peach that could eat longevity.

Lin Wenjing thought to herself, and couldn't help but smile on her face, as if she saw her mother's happy appearance. But when she took out all the change in her bag, the smile froze on her face. After buying the vegetables, the money left was only forty-five yuan six. Although the difference is not much, but she just heard that the young man who sells peaches has already sold them at wholesale prices, and it seems that he is not worried about selling, I am afraid that she has no room for bargaining.

What can I do? Lin Wenjing, who was anxious in her heart, could only stop in the crowd and watch the big peaches on the tricycle decrease one by one. She hoped that Zhong Huan, who sold peaches, would have a few left who couldn't sell it, so she would have a chance to bargain.

Lin Wenjing was staring at the peach in the car, but she didn't know that two young people in market security uniforms were staring at her and talking about it.

"Brother Mao, you see that girl is good, right? I'll just say it's the best. Wang Xilai pointed to Lin Wenjing's back and said.

"Tall enough, smooth enough, round enough buttocks, white enough skin, soft enough hair, long enough legs...... You can score 100 points by looking at the back, but you don't know what it looks like. It can't be a dinosaur that wants to commit a crime by looking at its back and wants to retreat when it looks at its face, right? "Mao Tong usually has no other hobbies, just a little lustful, and likes to watch beauties score in the market. Today, I heard Wang Xi, who has a similar smell, say that he saw the best product, and the two of them chased it out of the market.

"I saw my face just now, and it looks beautiful. If you don't believe it, let's squeeze over and take a look. Wang Xilai's love for beauties is actually not so big, mainly because Mao Tong is the cousin of Mao Xu, the director of the market security department, so he tried his best to tie up Mao Tong.

"Why don't we buy anything, why are we squeezing to the front?" Mao Tong is a typical colored heart without lust, it's okay to look at the beauty, what do you really want him to do, he really doesn't dare.

"We have a rule in the market, and no stalls are allowed in front of the door. We squeezed to the front to see who was so bold. If it's an acquaintance, forget it, and take a look at the beauty by the way. If you don't know him, we'll copy his stall and play prestige in front of beautiful women. I see that the beautiful woman wants to buy something, and Brother Mao copied his things to borrow flowers and offer Buddha to the beauty, maybe you can even get a phone number. Wang Xilai came up with a way to kill two birds with one stone.
