Chapter 9 Su Ji Sugar Gourd
In the early morning of spring, when the first rays of light shone on the ancient city, some milky white mist began to drift away, condensed into crystal dew, hanging on many green willows and grasses, and began to drip.
When a spring breeze blows, it carries the fragrance of the earth and the vitality of all new things, which is refreshing.
"The plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning, start work!" After eating, Su Chen carried a broom-shaped pole and walked out of the house, full of thirty strings of sugar gourds.
Behind Su Chen, followed Yang Ling'er, holding a wooden pole in his hand, with a hanging flag hanging on it, and it was full of words: Su Ji Sugar Gourd!
Su Chen plans to put out the trademark first, so that people can recognize that this is Su Ji's sugar gourd, because once the thing is easy to sell, there will definitely be more imitations in the future, so do a good job of branding in advance.
The two came to a bustling Xicao Alley, which is one of the two largest grass markets in Runzhou City, and the crowd is boiling, coming in and out endlessly.
Su Chen chose a place not far from the entrance of the grass market, and when people passed by here, he stood in his position and began to sell: "Sugar gourd, sweet and sour sugar gourd!" ”
Many passing vendors and pedestrians were shocked by his shouting, and when they looked back, they were a little curious, the outside was shiny, and the red things inside had indeed not been seen, but when they got closer, they took a closer look, this is not the red in the mountains full of sugar water!
"This thing, it's sour, there's nothing to eat!"
"Like, what kind of strange thing is this?"
People passing by shook their heads, the impression of the mountain red is very sour, and if you can't eat a few, your teeth won't be able to stand it.
"Wrong, this is called sugar gourd, the latest method, the only one in the world, Su Ji brand, it is sweet, crisp and delicious!" Su Chen boasted of himself.
"Fool people!"
"How much is a string?"
"Six texts in a string!" Su Chen replied.
"It's so expensive, two or three pennies a pound of red in the mountains, it can weigh a lot, and it's not a rare thing, it's too expensive." These adults, who don't have such a great desire to eat, are more distressed about money, so they look around a few times and walk away.
Yang Linger showed helplessness beside her, she was in a hurry, and no one bought it.
At this time, Su Chen saw four or five underage children coming from far and near, between the ages of six or seven and eleven or twelve, wearing not ordinary linen rags, but cloth shirts, and even silk cloth, and their family should be more solid.
"Ling'er, you pretend to buy it!"
Yang Ling'er will know, this has been demonstrated at home in advance, that is, to be a nursery!
Su Chen pulled one out of the pole and handed it to her, Yang Ling'er stood in front of her, biting one off and chewing it.
"It's so sweet, it's crispy, it's not sour, this thing is so delicious." Yang Linger praised hard.
These teenagers and children stopped, first, they were curious about this new food that they had not yet seen, and secondly, they were attracted by Yang Linger's exaggerated acting skills, and they couldn't help but pound sour water in their mouths when they listened to her praise.
"Big brother, what is this?"
"Rock sugar gourd! There is only one in Runzhou, there is no semicolon, and the delicious new snacks that have just been made cannot be bought anywhere else! Su Chen boasted hard.
"How much?"
"One string of six texts, two strings of ten texts!"
"Well, it's not expensive, I'll buy a bunch and try it!" An eleven or twelve-year-old boy in green first took out six cents to buy a bunch, and the other children surrounded him, staring at him with wide eyes and waiting for his evaluation after tasting it.
After eating a bunch of them, the young man in green nodded hurriedly: "Oh, yes, it's really delicious!" ”
"Give me a bunch!" There are children who can't wait.
A nine-year-old boy in a shirt suddenly said, "I'll have two strings, so I can save two cents!" ”
"Yes, you're smart!" Su Chen praised one of the children.
"Then I... And partners, buy two strings together, so that the provinces have a penny! ”
"It's okay, I found out that several of you are smart children, proficient in arithmetic, and your future is limitless!" Su Chen expressed his admiration.
These children, not only bought delicious sugar gourds, but also bought a vain compliment, and they were all elated.
Su Chen smiled slightly, he still has confidence in this thing, in a society that is rich in material resources after a thousand years, children are still very keen on sugar gourds, let alone in this era of relative material scarcity.
Five children bought six bunches and earned thirty-two cents.
"There are a lot of children in the bazaar, you can go and eat them, those children absolutely don't know what it is, so how face-saving you are!" Su Chen began to bewitch them.
"Yes, I'll show them the iron pillar!"
"I'll go find Shunyo'er, he definitely doesn't know what this is!"
These teenagers rushed to the grass market, scrambling for fear of slowing down the pace of others.
Yang Ling'er stood beside her, watching Brother Su Chen's miraculous operation, and admired it in her heart.
"That's marketing!" Su Chen smiled at Yang Ling'er, and when he saw another child coming, he said, "Another child is coming, you continue to stand in front and cooperate with eating!" ”
The usual trick was repeated several times, and three children couldn't resist the temptation, crying and making trouble, and the accompanying family had to buy a bunch for the children to eat.
At this time, I saw dozens of children rushing out of the grass market, rolling up the dust and smoke on the ground and flying, like a happy foal.
I heard a child shouting: "That's it, the big brother there is selling this sugar gourd!" ”
"It's Su Ji Sugar Gourd!"
"That's right, Su Ji sugar gourd!"
The child came running wildly, for fear that he would not be able to buy it too late.
"Buy two strings, it's a good deal, save money!" A child suddenly reminded everyone intelligently.
"You have to buy two skewers, or you'll be a fool!"
The children were shouting here, and soon there was a string of hands, resulting in a lot of stock on the plug rod that Su Chen took out.
"Ling'er, go back and pick up the goods quickly, and we must not delay our customers."
Yang Ling'er had a smile on her little face, and she also ran away.
……..
At an intersection outside Xicao Alley, a delicate carriage was parked.
Xiaotong went over to buy two strings of sugar gourds, returned to the car, kept one for himself, and handed the other to Bai Susu.
"Miss, I didn't expect him to be a person, although he was a bit of a loser, but he suddenly came up with such a novel way to eat, it's really delicious!" Xiaotong couldn't help but eat one on the road, it was indeed not sour, and it was sweet and crispy, just right to eat in this season.
Bai Susu was skeptical, and after eating one, he nodded slightly, and felt that it was very delicious, he had grown so big, and he had never eaten this thing, could it really be that Su Chen invented it himself?
She gently opened the curtain of the car with her jade hand, and looked at the young man who was concentrating on selling and selling dozens of meters away, dressed in a shirt and robe, smiling very sincerely, full of sunshine, not at all like a man with bad deeds.
"Su Chen, what kind of person are you?"
Bai Susu is a very calm and wise girl, two or three years of business training, but even more moody and angry, can do everything, continuous water, giving people a sense of cooperation in the spring breeze. Often after she leaves, the collaborator thinks carefully that this woman is very shrewd, and she can do one thing as a matter of course.
But even so, what Bai Susu has heard and seen about Su Chen's affairs in the past two days, and received two completely different rhetoric and evaluations, which are simply two heavens of ice and fire, making her unpredictable, which one should she believe, or will she be suspicious, and half of each believe?
When a woman like her has a strong curiosity about a man, she can't get over the hurdle in her heart if she doesn't find the answer.
"Let's go again and find someone to buy the rest of him." After Bai Susu finished speaking, she put down the silk curtain on the car window, and then concentrated on eating the string of sugar gourds in her hand.
Xiaotong was shocked: "I bought ...... bought"
