Chapter 60: Beauty
Eating a stinky tofu with three pennies is something that has never happened in Gucheng. As soon as the red paper was pasted, the neighbors ran to tell each other, and in less than half a cup of tea, a long queue formed in front of the Wuhua Building.
"I said, hey, is this tofu so stinky that you can really eat it? If you can eat, why do you have to pay for it? A woman with a few freckles on her face pinched her nose and grunted in the line.
"Isn't this the eldest daughter of the Chen family's tofu shop, why, your family is selling tofu and coming to line up?" A sharp-eared lady heard it, looked back at her, and sarcastically said with a little sarcasm.
"Phew." The freckled woman snorted. "No matter what my family sells, I don't know how to pick up the money that falls from the sky, that's a big fool."
"That's the way it is, but I've never seen such stinky tofu, so I really won't eat bad guys, right?" There is still reason in the ranks.
"Uncle, you are stupid, how can you eat stinky tofu? We can get the money, and take this stinky tofu home and feed it to the family dogs...", the freckled woman lowered her voice. can not only take the money, but also destroy the reputation of this peer, killing two birds with one stone.
Obviously it is not the time for lunch, but Funing Street is still lively as if it is in a market. The guy who ran the hall walked out with a pot, and there was a commotion from the crowd again-
How did this guy look so good? Several women who had not yet left the cabinet quietly blushed and gathered together to exchange heads.
The elementary school apprentice from Wuhua Building followed closely and walked out with a large basket of tofu cubes, and the women in the crowd opened their mouths wide again, and their eyes were filled with obsession. This apprentice is a little more handsome than the young guy who is just that...
When did Gucheng actually have such handsome guys, and they didn't find out?
Wuhualou's Erzao also walked out, pulling the collar intentionally or unintentionally, the already loose neckline opened a little wider, the thin sweat penetrated the material of the clothes and wet a small piece, and the muscles in his chest loomed..."This weather is so hot." He fanned the wind with his hand and rolled up his sleeves again, revealing the wheat-colored skin on his arms, and his demeanor exuded wild and uninhibited... Lift a barrel of oil with just one hand...
"Hiss..." I don't know who sucked the saliva that was about to run down the corner of my mouth.
"Just now, I seem to have heard someone say that they want to feed my stinky tofu to the puppy..."Erzao poured some oil into the pot and asked with a somewhat hurt expression.
"No, no, no..." The freckled woman blushed, her eyes staring at the muscles of Erzao's arm that was about to tear her clothes, and she felt even more suffocated.
"It's good if you don't have it... My tofu...."Saying that, he unconsciously adjusted his collar, "but it's easy to eat and addictive~"
"Yes~" The guy who ran away squeezed him away and raised a chuckle at everyone. "Eat one for three pennies, but you can only get the money after eating it in front of us~"
It's strange, just now I saw that this guy looks okay, but at most it's okay, and his posture is not as good as the two men in the back. Why do they laugh now, they all feel a little... I'm a little dizzy... It's like seeing it in his smile... I saw a hundred flowers blooming...
"Yes... Sanwen to eat one, only two per person, and only 1,000 tofu today~" Not to be outdone, the junior apprentice walked into the crowd and announced, but he was touched by the hand of a wolf-like lady, and he was so frightened that he quickly retreated to the door.
Miss Jing is right, she can only let them see it, not touch it. The one that was touched hard by the lady just now made his whole soul almost scared away...
"So." The three of them looked at each other, "Let's start now." ”
...
"Girl, you're really making the most of it." Even the beautiful man has done it. The jade bottle looked at the few guys who were secretly jealous of their charm, and bowed down to the wind. "There's just one thing I can't figure out."
"Well, you say." Chi Jing smiled and looked at the three guys who were busy delivering tofu and copper plates at the door, it was really beautiful and delicious.
"If you invite the neighbors to eat tofu for them to try, then it's good to limit each person to one, so why limit it to two? One more is thanks to the three pennies. The jade bottle asked puzzledly, if each person is limited to one tofu, the other tofu saved can be given to one more person to try. As a result, the number of people who tried it was doubled.
"Stinky tofu is something like that, but when I ate the first one, my tongue didn't remember the taste. It was only when I ate the second one that I started to taste it. Chi Jing smiled a little treacherously: "Jade bottle, if your appetite has just been hung up, but the things are gone, and you can't buy them with money, what will you do?" ”
I see. Thinking about that scene, the jade bottle couldn't help but show a sinister smile: "Then girl, tomorrow you will continue to pour silver taels and invite the neighbors to eat?" ”
Chi Jing nodded approvingly at her, and the children could be taught: "Inform the neighbors that tomorrow the three yuan will be reduced to two yuan, which is also a thousand tofu." The day after tomorrow it was reduced to a penny, five hundred tofu. The opening of the new store will only be paid for three days, and the original price will be restored from the fourth day. ”
For three whole days, the reputation of stinky tofu is enough to spread, and these people are enough to eat it.
It always takes all kinds of forbearance to achieve a big thing, so on the first day of the opening of Wuhua Building, the profit was negative. Including the cost, the loss is about five taels of silver.
...
"Little Er, bring me a pot of fine wine and a plate of peanuts, and take it to the private room on the second floor." After the man finished speaking, he just wanted to go upstairs, but stopped again and asked, "Xiao Er, why is there a smell in the vicinity that has not dispersed for a long time?" ”
"Guest officer, this is the first time you have come back to our fortified city, right?" Xiao Er smiled, with some envy in his smile, and asked instead of answering.
"No, my son-in-law and I passed by here a few days ago." The man said, knowing that this little two is new. I vaguely remember that time was also upstairs, and I saw a couple of men and women who were criminals parading the street on the street, and he was also ordered to take the token of the son and go to replace the county order to temporarily detain the two.
"In this way, this guest officer has tasted the stinky tofu of Wuhua Building?" Xiao Er swallowed his saliva unconsciously, and this action just fell in the man's eyes.
The man said, "I haven't heard of it. Wuhualou stinky tofu is the source of this smell? How is the smelly tofu? Why not dispose of it? ”
It would be bad if the smoked boy was in a bad mood.
"Wuhua stinky tofu is the signature snack of the newly opened Wuhua Building on the adjacent street, which is very smelly, but when you eat it... Again... Again..."Xiao Er has never read a book, and he can't describe it for a while-"Oops, anyway! After eating stinky tofu, everything else has no taste! ”
"Oh? Is there anything so delicious in the world? Xiao Er, then you go and buy me a few pieces of this stinky tofu..."Let Childe taste it too."
"I can't buy it with money, it's the third day today, and 500 stinky tofu have been delivered early in the morning... If you want to buy it, you can only buy it early tomorrow..."Xiao Er said and turned around to prepare wine for him, shaking his head and sighing all the way.
"It's all my stinky mother-in-law, who went out late and delayed things, and only went out at the end of the day, where is there a place to queue up when I get to Wuhua Building?"
