Chapter 17: The skewers are brought up

The peddler immediately made a decision and agreed: "Okay, if you can really make my pork sell well, I will fulfill my promise to give you a hundred taels of silver." But if you lose, you have to leave this jade bottle for me!"

Earned, earned, and the hawker's heart blossomed at this moment. If Xiyao wins, he won't lose anything, how can a pig be sold for three or four hundred taels, share one hundred with her, and make it himself. If Xiyao loses, then the profit will be even greater, and if a jade bottle is sold, it will cost thousands of taels, and he won't have to work for a year.

"Okay, that's it!" Xi Yao had a hint of joy on her face, and she already had her own plan in her heart, and she must get this hundred taels in her hands.

"But I needed something. She looked down at the stall and commanded, "Move this board to the back first." ”

The hawker was a little reluctant: "We are selling pork, what else is this board selling when it is moved to the back?"

Xi Yao snorted and said straightforwardly: "If you really believe me, just do what I say, where is so much nonsense." ”

"Okay, okay. The peddler nodded helplessly, and he made money on his own, so he let this little girl toss and see what she could do. After that, according to Xi Yao's wishes, the board where the pork was placed was moved to the back, leaving an open space in front of the stall.

The market is already lively, just now the two of them have attracted a lot of spectators who have stopped to stop the fun, this toss is even more noisy The whole street knows, the guests have stopped, and even the proprietress of the butcher shop opposite can't help but be curious, standing on the periphery and stretching her head in.

Xi Yao is very satisfied with this effect, what she wants is the accumulation of popularity.

As she gestured to the open space in front of her, she ordered, "Go find fifty bricks, some bamboo sticks, a basket of coal, and a kitchen knife." ”

As soon as this remark came out, the hawker was even more confused, bricks, bamboo sticks, coal, what kind of thing is this? But remembering Xi Yao's swear just now, it's just that, anyway, it's a business that doesn't lose money, and it's worth paying some labor, so he finally hesitated for a moment to buy things.

The most important thing in the market is goods, as long as you have money, you can buy anything, and in a few moments, the things that Xiyao asked for will be in front of you.

She asked the vendor to make a rectangular stove out of bricks, and she cooked the "pig" herself, cutting the meat into squares of the same size. The big white pig with three layers of flowers, fat and thin, red and white, has an appetite when you look at it, and then skewers the meat pieces on bamboo skewers, brushes a layer of oil on the surface of the meat pieces, and the ingredients are ready!

By this time the peddler's stove had been set up, and she moved a stool, sat down beside the stove, and placed the coals neatly in it. At this moment, there are many people watching around. Curiosity and joining in the fun are the eternal pleasures of human beings, and a peculiar store like Xi Yao is unique in the Nuoda market, which naturally attracts people to the inner and outer three floors.

"Ahem!" she cleared her throat and shouted: "Take a look, take a look, don't miss it when you pass by! The most distinctive barbecue restaurant in Nanyang City has opened! It doesn't matter if you eat or not, let's see the chef's magical tricks first, and watch the tricks for free!"

As soon as they heard that there was a free trick to see, the remaining pedestrians on the street were immediately attracted to it, and the children rode on the shoulders of their parents, so in order to find the best view, the other vendors also stopped their business and gathered around, and the long street twenty steps wide was instantly blocked.

The peddler was stunned for a moment, he didn't think that this little girl would have such a means, so that he still had to worry that his business would not be prosperous? Now the whole street knows about his shop, which is more valuable than the hundreds of taels of silver and the exquisite jade bottle!

"Let's get started. Xi Yao smiled mysteriously at the officials and audience, a contemplation, two clusters of jumping flames suddenly ignited between her palms, she slowly put her hands around the stove, and the raging fire instantly flooded the coal inside, burning crackling, and it was festive to watch.

"Wow!" the onlookers exclaimed, all staring at the big eyes of surprise, and their mouths grew into an O-shape. Most of the people who come to the market are ordinary people, where do they have spare money to watch tricks, and the charcoal burning with bare hands made by Xi Yao is something that rich people can't see when they spend money.

Sighs and exclamations came one after another, Xi Yao was quite satisfied with this reaction, she smiled at the nearby children, and said softly: "How is it, isn't it amazing?"

The child's bright eyes were still reflecting the firelight, nodded heavily, and said in a milky voice: "Well, big sister, you are so powerful, like a fairy!"

Mowgli's childlike face caused another burst of laughter from the audience.

"Okay, then the fairy sister will make you a delicious one again!" Xi Yao clapped her hands and shouted at the vendor: "Boss, grill the skewers!"

"Huh?" The vendor was still immersed in the wonderful trick just now, and he didn't react for a while, and when he saw Xi Yao glaring at her, he came back to his senses, and hurriedly said, "Okay, here, here!"

The meat skewers brushed with soybean oil are grilled on the fire, and the fragrant fat meat and tender lean meat suddenly swoop, and the tempting and fragrant smell of barbecue suddenly fills everyone's nose. The fire was very strong, and within half a moment, the meat on the bamboo skewers became charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the butter was shiny.

"It's so fragrant!", "It's so fragrant!", and the exclamations are endless.

Xi Yao picked up a meat skewer that had been burned and handed it to the kid just now, touched his head and said, "Eat, this sister is in for a treat!"

"Really?" The child's eyes lit up, seeing Xiyao nodding with a smile, he immediately took the skewers and nibbled on them, and when he took a bite, the meat was fragrant and full of mouth, and he said excitedly while gnawing: "Mom, Mom, this is really delicious!"

The people next to him were drooling, and when they saw that the child was eating fragrantly, they handed over the money and shouted:

"Little girl, I want one too!"

"Boss, how much is this, I'll also have a string!"

"Boss, I want ten strings!"

Xi Yao smiled, waved her hand and shouted: "Don't worry, everyone, there are many skewers, come one by one!" and then turned back to give the boss who was stupid a look, who hurriedly stepped forward to rectify the order, and gathered the crowd to line up.

For a while, the originally scattered market crowds were all attracted to Xiyao, and the queue lined up for two streets, and people spread the word of mouth, saying that there was a delicious kebab shop in the market, cheap and affordable, and there were free tricks to see. In this way, it spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and on this day, almost the entire people in Nanyang City came to the market to eat skewers.

Xi Yao was cutting meat and was busy with the barbecue, but she didn't notice that there were two people quietly watching her in the dark alley of the lively market.

Mo Bai looked at the place where the smell of meat wafted, smiled with relief, and said, "It seems that Gongzibai is worried, Miss Xiyao is smart, and you don't need to interfere in the matter of finding a job at all." ”

Chu Sheng still had that indifferent face, but his eyes were not as cold as before, and he turned his head with a faint smile and said, "Go home." ”

Mo Bai nodded, then followed, and said as he walked, "Don't you want to taste it, what kind of skewers, it looks delicious." ”

Chu Sheng only looked at the front and said lightly: "Just wait for her to come back and do it." ”
