60. Buying and Selling
After half past ten, the number of people on the street gradually increased.
Zhao Xiaoling and her aunt carried the boiled pig's blood to the street at the door in a foreign iron bucket, and moved the dining table out.
They started their official business.
People came and went, curiously looking, there was only Zhao Xiaoling and they were selling things on the whole street, as long as someone looked over, Zhao Xiaoling said generously: "Selling pig blood, do you eat pig blood?" A dime a bowl. ”
Most people shook their heads and walked away, and a few asked curiously, "Pig blood?" Is it tasty? ”
"It's delicious, nutritious, and blood-replenishing, and the health is not good because of the lack of qi and blood, and if you eat pig blood and replenish the blood, your body will get better." Zhao Xiaoling casually started advertising.
At that time, people ate to be full, at most to a mouth, no matter what nutrition it was! Nourish your body! None of this has been heard of.
So Zhao Xiaoling's statement is very fresh and arouses everyone's curiosity.
"Really? Can eating pig blood replenish the blood and body? ”
"Of course! What to eat and what to supplement, whether it is a human or an animal, what is the most important thing in the body? It's blood! Can a man live without blood? If there is not enough blood in the body, the health of the body will be affected. ”
In order to do this business, Zhao Xiaoling is also quite hard, and she can fool people casually.
There was an old man with his grandson, listened to Zhao Xiaoling's words, nodded and said, "My grandson has just been sick and is weak, give me a bowl!"
finally sold a bowl, and Zhao Yulan next to her quickly scooped a bowl of pig's blood and put it on the table, "Uncle, bring the child over here to eat." ”
Zhao Yulan easily moved two stools.
The old man pulled his grandson to sit at the table.
There were a lot of people around the side at once.
Zhao Xiaoling said: "Uncle, you can taste it yourself and see how it tastes."
Uncle took a bite.
"It tastes good!"
"Would you like another bowl? A dime a bowl is just the money of a steamed bun, you can eat a bowl yourself, don't just care about giving it to your children. ”
"Alright! Bring me a bowl too. The old man said cheerfully.
In the crowd of onlookers, a six or seven-year-old boy said, "Mom, I haven't eaten pig blood yet, and I want to eat it too."
Zhao Xiaoling greeted warmly, "Sister-in-law, buy a bowl for the child!" The child has never eaten pig blood when he is so old, and this pig blood is not expensive, only a dime a bowl, and it will satisfy the child once. ”
The woman looked at the grandparents and grandchildren who were eating happily and nodded, "Okay! Give my child a bowl. ”
Zhao Yulan scooped up and beckoned: "Big sister, come here to eat."
Zhao Xiaoling continued to shout at the onlookers, "Quick, delicious and nutritious pig blood, as long as it costs a dime and a bowl, come and eat it." ”
"Is it really delicious?" Someone asked the uncle who was eating.
"Delicious!" Uncle nodded.
People who buy things have a herd mentality, when no one buys, even if there is a little heartbeat, they are hesitating, and when someone buys, that hesitation disappears.
One after another, some people bought it, and all of a sudden they couldn't sit down at the table, and there were no stools to sit on, and some people could only stand or squat on the ground to eat.
This is how business is, the more people buy, the more people join in the fun. Later, Zhao Xiaoling didn't need to shout anything, many people came over when they saw it.
I asked the price, and I thought it was not expensive, so I didn't have to pay for it without any words.
In just over two hours, all the pig blood was sold out, and there were people who heard that pig blood was being sold here, and it tasted good, so they could only leave with regret.
The business was unexpectedly good, and the hearts that grandma and aunt had been carrying were also relaxed, and they said excitedly while packing up their things: "Xiaoling, this deal is really done."
Zhao Xiaoling counted the money, and earned a total of six yuan and nine cents.
My aunt said in surprise: "Really, so in addition to the capital of nine cents, we have earned six yuan?"
"yes!" Zhao Xiaoling is also very happy, although this money does not make much, but it can enhance the confidence of aunt and grandmother in doing business.
Grandma couldn't believe it, "Just half a day's work, you made six yuan?" It's so good to make! ”
Together, they washed the bowls and buckets in the yard.
Zhao Yulan said excitedly: "Next time, let's take a few more pigs' pig blood, and we can sell it for more money."
"Normally, food companies only kill two pigs, but on market day, they kill 10 pigs. Let's buy all the blood of ten pigs. ”
"What a pity! Usually there is no one on this street, so we can only sell it on market days, and it would be nice if we could sell it every day like a market day. Auntie said.
"Yes! We can only sell one day a week, and we can only be idle and can't do anything. Grandma said.
"Yes, I'm panicking." Aunt said.
Of course, Zhao Xiaoling understands the mood of her aunt and grandmother, they are all diligent people, they are used to hard work, life is leisurely all of a sudden, they are not adaptable, they are not idle these days, they go to collect firewood every day, but compared to the previous work of getting up early and working in the dark, it is relaxed.
Zhao Xiaoling gave them ideas.
"There are many ways to make money, for example, this firewood can also be exchanged for money."
Grandma didn't believe it, "This firewood is on the mountain, as long as you put out a little effort, you can hit it, who will spend this money?" ”
Zhao Xiaoling explained, "It's not just a matter of effort, sometimes it's not time!" It's like there are some double workers in the factory, both of them are working, and the children are going to school, so there is no time to go to the mountains to collect firewood. But you can't cook without firewood! How to cook without spending money on firewood. ”
Zhao Yulan's heart moved, "Then let's move some firewood to the door to sell now?" ”
Originally, she just said it casually, explaining that there are many ways to make money, but she didn't let them make this kind of hard-earned money, they didn't believe it, so let them see.
"Yes! It's only a little past one o'clock, and it's the time when the streets are at their most crowded, and after five o'clock in the afternoon, the streets will slowly disperse. ”
As soon as they said they would do it, they immediately moved some of the dry firewood out of the yard.
My aunt and grandmother had already seen Xiaoling's shouting just now, so they went to the house to cook and let Zhao Xiaoling sit at the door and sell firewood.
This firewood is not as good as pig blood, and no one cares about it for a long time.
Zhao Xiaoling is not in a hurry, it doesn't matter if she can't sell it, they can keep this firewood for their own use, and they don't have to worry about it breaking down after being left at home for a long time.
My aunt made a meal, it was a noodle soup, with some green vegetables and meat foam, which is what they think is the best thing to eat at present, because they made money today, so they are willing to eat it, Zhao Xiaoling thought, when she gives her a year, she will be able to let her aunt and grandmother eat big white rice and meat at once.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, a person finally came to buy firewood, he was a person who was engaged in the procurement of the public canteen, and the public canteen used coal for cooking, but it also needed firewood to ignite.
