The meat on the market is not expensive, but the meat ticket is hard to find, and a pound of pork for the New Year has to be a dollar plus a meat ticket, otherwise you can't buy it. Rare things like dried shrimp and dried fish are several times more expensive than pork!

Although this fried dried fish is delicious, it is obviously unaffordable!

Chen Xingling hurriedly stopped: "Don't listen to my mother!" These dried shrimps and dried fish were sent by my mother's family, and there were too many to eat, so I planned to sell them half and give them away, and I didn't want to sell them so expensive. They are all neighbors, and if they like it, they can take some and eat it, and the price is the same as pork. ”

No matter how good and rare things are, the price is too high and will only scare customers away.

Fortunately, it is the end of the year, and it is the time for every household to save money to buy New Year's goods. At this time, things sell much better than usual!

In this era, wages are hard to earn, and it is already good to be able to eat a meal of meat in a few days, so how can you casually pay for meat. Unless the thing is really delicious and cost-effective, it will take most of the day to search and calculate.

She doesn't have a cost at all for this thing, she can sell as much as she can, and it is much better to strive for small profits than to be eaten by her mother-in-law and sister-in-law at home!

After hearing this, everyone's eyes immediately lit up, and they squeezed back one after another.

"Really?! Pork prices on the line? However, pork on the black market ...... It's not cheap lately! ”

"The New Year is coming up in two days, and things are expensive! Pork on the black market has recently become more expensive...... If you have a meat ticket to buy it in the market, it will cost you at least three or four yuan in the black market. ”

"No, a pound for a dollar." Chen Xingling replied: "It's about the same price as good meat in the food market." The dried shrimp are all peeled, there is no pure meat of the shrimp head, and the shrimp the size of the index finger have to be dried and dried to have such a large shrimp. It takes time and effort to deal with it, and you get two dollars a catty. ”

After listening to this, all the aunts and aunts suddenly became interested!

In the winter, it is difficult to buy small dried fish and dried shrimp like this. Even if you can buy it, the price is very expensive, how can it be as cheap as pork!

The taste of fried dried fish just now is still in the mouth, and when I heard that the price was not high, the idea of being greedy for a small price immediately came up, and I shouted that I wanted to buy it.

Li Ying almost fainted when she heard this, and she was so distressed that she twitched and twitched.

"How can you sell it so cheaply...... The surname is Chen! It's too cheap to sell like this! These are all good things! ”

Chen Xingling ignored her and asked everyone to go to the house to get plates or cloth bags to pack.

Everyone hurried back and forth, and the grandmother of the girl diagonally opposite also brought a scale, saying that she could help weigh two pounds.

So, the business started quickly!

"Tiger Mom! I want half a pound! ”

"Archie's daughter-in-law! Three or two! Can you sell it in three or two? Then I'll do it in threes or two! ”

"I'll have a pound! I want shrimp too! ”

……

Chen Xingling is informal, the weight is sufficient, and he adds a small handful after loading, which can make all the aunts and aunts laugh happily!

"Yo! Huzi's mother is heroic enough! Wait, I'll go back and call my sister to buy it too! ”

"I'm going to buy an extra pound! The son and daughter-in-law are going home for the New Year and get some for them to try. ”

"Huzi Mom, how much is left? Leave some for me, and I'll call some old sisters to buy them for you. ”

……

Gu Qi went downstairs and was reading a book in the house, and then heard the chatter at the gate, which was very noisy, and he thought it was just a good weather and neighbors getting together to talk.

Unexpectedly, after most of the commotion, it still didn't stop.

Gu Qi was slightly curious, but listening to the voice of a woman, he suppressed that curiosity and continued to read quietly.

Until his son ran into the house and shouted excitedly, "Dad! Mommy sells! Earn a lot of money! ”

Gu Qi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Make money?" What to sell? ”

"Dried fish and dried shrimp!" After the son finished answering, he ran out again.

Gu Qi was a little confused, put down the book and got up to walk the room.

At this time, the little tiger jumped up and ran back, holding something high in his hand, and shouted happily: "Dad! Eat! Eat! Mom's fried dried fish! One for each person! ”

Gu Qi glanced at it and found that it was a small fish that was fried crispy.

Yucheng is a coastal city, and the most important thing is all kinds of fresh seafood, and the price is very cheap. The chefs in the canteen of the unit are generally cheap and do anything, so there are all kinds of fish, shrimp, squid, octopus, shells and so on for three meals a day almost every day.

Gu Qi, who had worked in Yucheng for several years, was tired of eating for a long time, and shook his head: "Let's eat it for you." ”

As soon as Xiaohuzi heard that he was in the middle of it, he immediately gnawed the dried fish in his hand.

Gu Qi heard the commotion at the door, and couldn't stop walking over with curiosity anymore, until he saw a large crowd of people crowded at the gate of his house, and he was really startled!

It's - what's wrong?

……

"The last five cents!" Chen Xingling held the bamboo basket and spread out a crumpled five-cent bill, put it on a neat pile of five-dime banknotes, and then smiled, "The three bags that were moved out later were all sold, a total of fifty-five yuan and three cents!" ”

Most people love to be cheap, especially housewives who take care of three meals a day every day, and they know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, so they prefer to take advantage of small advantages.

She took advantage of their greed for small and cheap psychology to reduce the price a lot, and attracted hundreds of people to buy it at once, and the people behind them all came to buy it one after another after hearing about it, and they all called the price very favorable.

At first, she only moved the one she took out last night, but it was sold out quickly, so she had to find an excuse to say that there was still under the bed in the room, so she took the opportunity to sneak into the space and move out more.

Who knew that the business was very good, and in the end, there were only one or two catties of dried fish and a handful of dried shrimp left, and Chen Xingling closed the stall.

After some liquidation, I actually earned more than fifty!

Li Ying bit the dried fish while probing her head and looking around, until she heard Chen Xingling read out the final data, she didn't know whether she was surprised or frightened, and her eyes widened!

Gu Miao nibbled on the small dried fish, her eyes looked at the pile of money, and her round face was full of envy and jealousy.

More than fifty! Earn more than fifty in one morning!

The money around her is all five cents and two cents, and it is not more than one cent!

Gu Qi has been home for several days, only knowing that there are piles under the bed, and he can't imagine that there are so many dried seafood hidden!

"Xing'er, when did your father-in-law and mother-in-law send you so many seafood? Sent from the post office? ”

Chen Xingling shook his head: "No, it's too expensive to send it from the post office, and you can only send it once at a time." Later, they heard that it would be cheaper to ship it from the train station, so they simply got a few dozen catties and shipped it over. I was afraid that I would lose it on the way, so they didn't send me anything too valuable, only small dried fish and dried shrimp. ”

"I see." Gu Qi nodded.

Such dried fish and dried shrimp are very common in Yucheng, and he was going to bring some with him when he came back this time, but unfortunately the train tickets were booked in too much hurry, and he hurriedly got on the train before he had time to buy them.

Li Ying said in a sour tone: "No matter how much your mother's family sends, you can't make it as if you don't need money, and the price is as cheap as pork!" ”

Chen Xingling put a large pile of money in his pocket and shook his head: "It doesn't matter. No one wants small dried fish like this in my house, and usually children play with snacks and sell as much as they can. ”

When Li Ying saw her put away all the money, the sourness in her heart almost overflowed.

"That...... I haven't bought any New Year's goods at home yet. Ah Yi will probably be home tomorrow or afternoon, so he must leave some small dried fish for him to eat. ”

The previous angry bag could be tossed as much as she wanted, and it was no problem for her to hand over all the money. It's obviously impossible now, especially since Archie is still there.

Chen Xingling said generously: "It's okay, I still have it in my room, so I can eat enough for my brother-in-law." ”

As for whether to buy New Year's goods or not, it has nothing to do with her, so don't come to her idea. Gu Qi sent me dozens of yuan every month, for more than three years, and she never touched a dime.

Li Ying: "......"!!

And also?! How much did her mother's family consign for her!
