As soon as it was dark, red lanterns were hung on both sides of the main street of Heanseong, and although the lights were dim, they had a special charm.

Both sides of the street are full of stalls selling all kinds of goods, most of them are mainly for food, and many of them are selling knick-knacks, which are not far from the palace at a long glance.

After dinner, the people went out of their homes, and some of them even planned to eat from the street to the end of the street without dinner.

Aunt Wang and Ling Xiaorou came late, the stalls on the street had been set up, and it was not easy for people to push the cart in, so they simply found a good position on the side, supported the car, spread the wooden planks prepared in advance, and then put out a few pots filled with lo-mei.

In order to make it easier for pedestrians to hold and eat, Ling Xiaorou skewered all the lo-mei with bamboo skewers, as long as you hold it carefully, it is best to eat while walking, and if you want to take it home, you can also wrap it in dried lotus leaves.

As soon as the stall was set up, the people passing by just looked at it, and did not stop here, after all, there are the most food sellers on this street, and there are many famous ones.

Aunt Wang had seen it for a long time and no one came to the door, so she sighed anxiously, "Rou'er, you said that this person didn't buy it, didn't you want to lose money?" ”

"It's okay, Aunt Wang, that's all business is about, you just need to have confidence in the taste of our food." Ling Xiaorou is not in a hurry, this is what business is all about, and it is common to be cold at first, not to mention that the food she makes is all eaten cold, and the fragrance is not strong, if it is not very close, it will almost not be smelled.

But Ling Xiaorou believes that as long as one customer has eaten her food, her business will be done, and word of mouth is more important than anything shouting.

Thinking about the deliciousness of the food, Aunt Wang's saliva flooded, she was really not afraid that these would not be sold, and it would be a big deal if they could not be sold, and it would be a big deal to send them to Chunmanlou tomorrow, I believe that this taste will definitely make Chunmanlou so satisfied that she can no longer be satisfied.

Ling Xiaorou took a few strings of chicken skewers and put them on a lotus leaf, and took a few strings of tofu, which was marinated with chicken cut pieces after removing the chicken legs and wings, which was also quite delicious.

Ling Xiaorou plucked up her courage and shouted loudly, "Delicious spicy skewers, free to taste, limited quantity, first come, first served, no late!" ”

A shout attracted the attention of everyone around, I have never heard of a free taste here, is it because the things in this house are too unpalatable to sell before this decision? Don't just ask for money after eating, right?

For a moment, they all stood there hesitantly staring at Ling Xiaorou and Aunt Wang's stalls.

Aunt Wang listened to Ling Xiaorou's shouting and glared at the boss, and complained softly: "Rou'er, are you crazy? Isn't this going to impoverish us? ”

Ling Xiaorou smiled and shook her head, "Aunt Wang, the only ones in the lotus leaves are free to taste, and when they eat it, are you afraid that they won't buy it?" Then we will be able to make money. ”

Although Aunt Wang is still very distressed, these things are all bought by Ling Xiaorou with money, and Ling Xiaorou does them, at most she has built a few handfuls of firewood, since everyone is not distressed, she is not good to say anything more.

I just kept frowning on the side, afraid that someone would really come to taste it.

Ling Xiaorou shouted a few more times, and finally someone had the courage to come over, and a man in a coarse cloth short coat stood hesitantly in front of the car, "This is really free to eat?" ”

Ling Xiaorou pointed to a few strings in the lotus leaves, "There are only those that are free, come first and eat first, and there will be no ones when you come late!" ”

"Can I take it away and eat it?" The man was afraid that Ling Xiaorou would ask him for money after eating, thinking that he would take it and eat it again, if she asked for money, he would return the skewers to her, and if she didn't want money, he would take it directly.

Ling Xiaorou nodded, "Yes, just come and buy it after eating." ”

After speaking, he asked him what kind of skewer he wanted, and then gave him a chicken skewer, compared to tofu, although the chicken skewer is much smaller, but after all, it is meat, even the people in the capital, there are not many opportunities to eat meat on weekdays.

After taking the chicken skewers, the man looked back at Ling Xiaorou as he walked, until he reached the edge of the crowd, Ling Xiaorou didn't call him back to ask for money, and the man quickly squeezed into the crowd and left.

Seeing that the man took away the meat skewers, Ling Xiaorou didn't ask for money, so many people also came over, each of them asked Ling Xiaorou for a braised skewer and walked away quickly, and soon the braised skewers in the lotus leaves were cleaned.

Some people who are still waiting begin to regret it, why are they one step slower than others? I knew that I really didn't need money, so they squeezed in and took it.

It's a pity that Ling Xiaorou no longer has the intention of tasting it for free.

Some curious people came to ask the price, just close, it seems to smell the aroma of spicy skewers, very greedy, although they don't give a taste, they can also buy a few strings back to taste.

But after asking the price, many people hesitated, it is really not expensive, but it is not cheap, a string of tofu for five cents, a string of chicken for ten yuan, half a pig's feet for thirty yuan, a duck leg for thirty yuan, and a chicken leg for fifty yuan...... That's the price of how many bowls of noodles you eat.

Some people asked and left, and some people just wanted to stay there and watch the excitement, selling so expensive, but to see how much they could sell in one night, so as not to cry when no one buys it.

Ling Xiaorou didn't care what others thought, took a pig's foot and handed it to Aunt Wang, "Aunt Wang, you can taste the cold pig's feet again, that is really delicious and chewy." ”

Aunt Wang didn't think anything about eating a few pig's feet, but when she heard that this half pig's feet were sold for 30 yuan, where would she still be willing to eat them? Although I think Ling Xiaorou's price is too expensive, this pig's knuckle is also a thirty yuan thing, so I can't bear to eat it.

Ling Xiaorou gave in a few times, but Aunt Wang just shook her head, until Ling Xiaorou put it in her ear and said, "Aunt Wang, you can eat it, you can taste it for others, why can't you taste it yourself?" Besides, when you eat it, the fragrance wafts out to attract business, right? ”

Aunt Wang also heard this reason, rather than giving the pig's leg to others to eat, it was really better to eat it herself, and she took the pig's leg and gnawed it at that time.

Not to mention, I didn't feel the pork leg when I put it down, but when I bit it down like this, the fragrance drifted farther away, and some of the onlookers next to me sniffed, "It's quite fragrant." ”

After speaking, I felt as if I was gluttonous, and covered my mouth embarrassedly, but I saw that the people next to me also raised their noses and sniffed violently, and it seemed that they felt that the fragrance was not their own, and there was no burden when they smelled it again.

Aunt Wang knew that the pig's feet were delicious, but she didn't expect that after cooling, not only the fragrance was more prominent, but even the taste was so crispy that people couldn't stop eating until half of the pig's feet were in the stomach, and they were still unsatisfied.

It's just that when Ling Xiaorou took the pig's feet for her to eat again, she refused to eat them again, after all, this is a business, what do you sell when you eat them all?

When everyone was hesitantly thinking: Do you want to spend five cents to buy a skewer of tofu to try first, the man who was the first to take the chicken skewers and ran out rushed in again, pointed to the spicy braised skewers in the basin and asked the price, although he also had a painful expression, he still bought two chicken skewers and ten tofu skewers, and asked Ling Xiaorou to wrap him with lotus leaves.

Because it was the first business, Ling Xiaorou generously gave him a duck skewer, grinned the man happily, and gave a thumbs up when he left, "This taste, it's amazing!" ”

A man in ordinary clothes bought a 70 wen braised skewer in one go, and he seemed to take advantage of a big bargain, is this meat skewer really so delicious?

But what if that man in ordinary clothes has never eaten anything good, and he thinks that eating meat is a rare delicacy in the world?

Well, go ahead and wait and see.

It didn't take long for two more people to squeeze in from the outside, and beckoned behind him, "Big brother, I've found it, this is it, come here." ”

Then four or five people squeezed in from outside, looked at Ling Xiaorou's brine strings and swallowed saliva, and nodded again and again after asking the price, "It's not expensive, it's not expensive!" ”

Twenty skewers of chicken and twenty skewers of duck meat were directly wrapped, tofu skewers were all wrapped directly, and ten skewers of pork legs were also taken. ”

When the people walked away, they looked at the various spicy skewers in the basin and went down to a layer, originally Ling Xiaorou didn't prepare much, but these people bought more at a time, it was obvious.

Nowadays, except for a few chicken and duck legs, there is no sale, and all kinds of marinated skewers have gone down a lot, and Aunt Wang's direct praise Ling Xiaorou has a business mind.

After asking the price, these two skewers, the five skewers, the people who were still watching also saw that this thing was really delicious, and if they didn't go over to taste it, they were afraid that it was really gone, and they hurriedly joined the scramble.

In a blink of an eye, a few pots were at the bottom, and even the chicken and duck legs that no one cared about before were sold, and the two chicken racks that Ling Xiaorou brought for Aunt Wang to gnaw and play with were also sold for twenty yuan each.

Some of them tasted it and came back to find it, looking at the empty basin and choking their wrists, they only hated themselves for being one step behind?

Ling Xiaorou once again promised that after coming back tomorrow night, those people would be released.

Ling Xiaorou could foresee the popularity of spicy braised skewers early on, and she didn't have much emotional fluctuations, but Aunt Wang was not, although she was not very short of money, but she could sell such a fire just by selling spicy skewers, and the money she earned was like running water, she still couldn't believe it.

This is only the first day of setting up a stall, if it is sold in the future, more people know about it, and I am afraid that it will be sold several times more lo-mei.

When I went home and counted the money, I earned more than five taels of silver by selling spicy braised skewers this night, and most of them were copper coins, which were heavy in my hand.

That is, her house is not too far from the palace, and the security is very good, otherwise the two women will not be seen at night with this lot of money.

Aunt Wang took Ling Xiaorou's hand, "Rou'er, although I made a good profit tonight, that is, in the past few days, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are fewer people on the street at night, so we can't do this in this business." ”

Ling Xiaorou also knew this truth, "Well, then we will go out during the day." ”

Aunt Wang put her mind at ease, she was afraid that Ling Xiaorou would earn money, and she didn't know how thick the sky was, if she was looked down upon by someone like her, she wouldn't be able to cause trouble?
