Chapter 040: You Get What You Paid For
As soon as Xu Qingmo came out, a lady came up and said: "Girl, people only sell one dime and five bowls, and it is too expensive for you to sell two cents, if you sell one and a half cents, I will buy it from you." ”
"Auntie, you get what you pay for, our bayberry soup is not only thick, but also has enough sugar, and if you don't think it's enough, you can add as much as you want, as long as you're not too sweet." Xu Qingmo said with a smile, she heard that other people's houses were not delicious, so she was very confident.
The eldest lady obviously heard about it, so she didn't go to anyone else to buy it, and deliberately came to Xu Qingmo's place.
Seeing that Xu Qingmo had a lot, the lady didn't say anything anymore, and directly bought Xu Qingmo's bayberry soup, but asked Xu Qingmo to give a few more bayberry.
Xu Qingmo didn't pick the door either, so he gave her a few more bayberry.
Because there are two more bayberry soup sellers today, and they are cheaper than hers, the flow of people on Xu Qingmo's side is obviously a lot less, which makes Xu Qiming and Zhou Suyun a little worried.
Xu Qingmo comforted: "Don't worry, I just heard that although it is cheap, it is not very delicious, the soup is not thick enough, and it is not sweet enough, you can also see that there are still many people who come to our house to drink, but it is just a big deal that it will be sold for a longer time." ”
Hearing Xu Qingmo say this, Xu Qiming and Zhou Suyun were a lot more relieved.
Although the flow of customers is much less, there is still a steady stream of people coming to buy their bayberry soup to drink.
And after Xu Qingmo's family came, the source of customers of those two families was gradually decreasing, especially Li Chunmei's mother and daughter, who were close to Xu Qingmo's family, which made them angry at Xu Qingmo's side.
They feel that they are cheaper than Xu Qingmo's side, but the business is not as good as others, which is simply bullying people!
Of course, they deliberately ignored the guests' suggestions for their bayberry soup, and instead retorted: "Bayberry is so expensive, and sugar is not cheap, if it is so strong, what money will we make!" ”
"People can, why can't you!" The guests were very displeased.
Li Chunmei's mother and daughter are also very puzzled, bayberry is so expensive, and sugar is not cheap, why their family is so reluctant.
Naturally, they didn't know that Xu Qingmo's family's bayberry didn't need money.
In fact, even if you ask for money and do it so strongly, you still make money, but you will earn a lot less.
But no matter how little she earns, it is higher than the salary of other people's work, Li Chunmei's mother and daughter are just too high-minded, so they will look down on them.
Liu Lingling looked at Xu Qingmo's family, who were busy with work, and her eyes kept bubbling with sour water.
Not only because Xu Qingmo's family's business is good, but also because Xu Qingmo is more beautiful than her, which makes her doubly jealous of Xu Qingmo.
"Humph! I look at this Xu Qingmo, who looks so sassy and still comes to show his face, not to sell bayberry soup at all, but to sell meat. Liu Lingling said in a weird way.
The so-called selling meat refers to Xu Qingmo using her beauty to seduce and lure diners, otherwise she would be doing with her parents when she was busy?
When a diner who was drinking their bayberry soup heard this, he immediately felt that this girl's face was extremely ugly, and he couldn't help but speak: "How do you talk this girl!" It's too vicious! Your family's business is not good, that is because you cut corners, the soup is not thick, it is not sweet, and you don't give it if you want to add sugar. Not only is the soup thick, but the sugar is also enough, and you can add it casually, I really regret that I am greedy for this five-cent discount to drink it here, if I don't want to waste it, I can't drink it. ”
These words made Li Chunmei's mother and daughter's faces ugly, but they just didn't admit that they were not delicious.
"I see that you also see that little slut is good-looking, so speak for her! If it doesn't taste good, don't drink it, I'm not rare! Li Chunmei said angrily.
"If you don't drink, you won't drink, I'm not rare! You are so vicious, this business cannot be continued. The guest is also temperamental, "Smack! With a bang, he put the bowl heavily on the table, and then got up and walked towards Xu Qingmo's stall.
For five cents, he fed the dogs.
"You give me ......" was cursed that she couldn't do business, Li Chunmei was so angry that she didn't want to be distorted, and wanted to make trouble with others, but she was stopped by Liu Lingling.
"What are you holding me for?" Li Chunmei asked angrily.
"Mom, I have a way to make their business untenable." Liu Lingling said with a smile, her eyes full of calculations.
"What's the solution?" When Li Chunmei heard this, her eyes lit up.
Liu Lingling underestimated in Li Chunmei's ear for a while, and finally said: "Don't worry, leave this matter to me, and I promise that nothing will go wrong." ”
"Okay." Li Chunmei finally smiled, believing that her daughter would not let her down.
Next, Li Chunmei still has business here, but it is relatively light, and Xu Qingmo's side is still lively.
Du Lang is resting today, so he came to walk around the street, and he heard that there is a stall next to the [Baicao Medicine Hall] that sells bayberry soup that is very delicious, so he came over to try it.
Ever since he saw Xu Qingmo that day, her figure has lingered in his mind, making him think about it.
However, he didn't even know what their names were or where they lived.
However, when he came to the stall selling bayberry soup, he saw the figure that he thought about day and night, which made him stunned, thinking that he was dazzled!
After being stared at by Du Lang for a few seconds, Xu Qingmo felt it, looked up at him, but had no other reaction, and continued to work.
And when Du Lang saw Xu Qingmo's reaction, his expression was slightly stiff, and he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't care much, after all, they were only meeting for the second time, and they didn't even know each other!
Du Lang walked over, greeted Xu Qingmo with a smile, and said, "Hello, meet again, I want a bowl of bayberry soup." ”
As he spoke, he took out two cents and handed it to Xu Qingmo.
"Okay." Xu Qingmo didn't react in particular, took the money, poured a bowl of bayberry soup, and Zhou Suyun then scooped up seven or eight bayberry and served it to Du Lang.
After Du Lang took it, after drinking it, he was also full of praise, and when he left, he still said that he would come back tomorrow.
He wanted to talk to Xu Qingmo more, but he didn't know where to start, and the other party was also busy, so I was afraid that he wouldn't have time to talk to him!
Anyway, he also knew that she was selling bayberry soup here, and he would be familiar with it every day after tomorrow.
Because Li Chunmei's side took away some of the guests today, the four barrels of bayberry soup on their side were sold out in three hours today, but it took more than half an hour longer than usual, and they were all sold out.
But on Li Chunmei's side, there are a lot left.
After the sale, the family closed the stall and went home.
The news that Xu Qiming's family was selling bayberry soup in the county also spread in the village today, and I heard that the business was very good, and they could earn more than ten or twenty yuan a day, and many people were jealous.
