Chapter 168 Selling Perilla and Yangmei, Buying a Piglet(1/2)

Two days later, Ye Jun rode a bicycle tricycle and took Liu Yue to the city.

There was a jar of perilla, peach, bayberry and ginger on the car, as well as several bowls and spoons.

Liu Yue specially wrote "five cents a bowl" on a piece of paper and pasted it in a conspicuous place on the ceramic jar.

She also brought a small table.

Along the way, I felt anxious and worried: "Ye Jun, do you think this is possible?"

"Your second brother used to come to the city to sell things. He should be allowed to come this time."

"He is better at talking, unlike me who doesn't even know what to say."

Liu Yue felt that she really wasn't doing a good job in this aspect.

If you can talk freely and explain your things well, your business will definitely be better.

"Jinbao said he wanted you to come, so he must have thought you could do it. You also have your own advantages and strengths. You see, you did all these things, how well you do them."

"As long as it tastes good, there's no need to waste time talking about it."

Ye Jun comforted her while riding the bike, "Can you believe that this thing was sold out at once?"

"I don't believe it." Liu Yue has always had a low self-esteem, "How can things be so easy and smooth?"

"You know it's not going well without even doing it? Comrade, this is a very bad idea."

Liu Yue was amused by him.

The tricycle arrived in the city at eight o'clock in the morning.

The two chose a lively place in the county to set up their stall.

Liu Yue set up a small table, took out the ceramic jar, and uncovered the sealed grease on it.

Six or seven bowls were stacked in a pile, and two bowls were taken out to contain the perilla, peach, bayberry, and ginger in the jar and placed on the table.

She was very agile with her hands and feet, and some people passing by looked at her curiously.

This bowl is white, contrasting with the red color of the soup, making it look very beautiful and attractive.

As soon as it was placed, three little girls who were going to school stopped.

"Sister, what is this? It looks weird. We have never seen it before."

Liu Yue smiled and told them their names.

These little girls seemed to be cheap, and they were studying in the county town, so they had some pocket money.

"Should we give it a try? This is not something we often set up stalls here. This is the first time I have encountered it."

Someone asked: "Sister, will you still be here tomorrow?"

Liu Yue shook his head, "These are the bayberries and peaches I just picked at home. How can I get time to get these again?"

"Okay, let's have a bowl for each of the three of us." The female classmate was also shy and was too embarrassed to ask questions but still refused to buy.

Liu Yue's joyful expression immediately climbed onto her cheeks.

She collected the money from the three of them, then took out three bowls and handed them to them.

"It smells pretty good. This is the first time I've seen perilla used to make fruit. It's really rare."

"Yes, try it quickly. It's delicious. The peach and bayberry are very sweet, and the taste of perilla and ginger is very special!"

"It's really delicious. When the time comes, we'll tell other students in class and ask them to come over and eat if they have time at noon. The price is so cheap anyway."



Seeing that they were satisfied with their meal, Liu Yue felt relieved.

Originally she was a little unsure, and this was also her first time shopping in the county.

Ye Jun parked the three-wheeled bicycle aside, walked over and smiled at her, "Look, this went quite smoothly, right?"

"Indeed." Liu Yue was filled with satisfaction.

They sent two bowls to the noodle shop behind them so that they could use their sink to wash the dishes.

One after another, many people ate it.

This jar was sold out after more than fifty bowls were sold.

It's only half past twelve noon.

The shopkeeper behind could not help but come over and said with a smile: "You young people really have some ideas. There are a lot of people selling jelly here recently."

"I saw that when you first came here, I thought you were also here to sell jelly."

"My wife and I just ate it, and I think your food is quite delicious and fresh."

"It's a pity that it's sold out, that's all we made." Liu Yue smiled.

The store owner sincerely suggested to them, "Let me tell you, while this thing is selling well, come back and sell more in the next two days."

"This fruit is no different from other fruits. It's gone after the season."

Liu Yue nodded, feeling that this was indeed right.

Jinbao said that this thing can be stored in a cold place for more than a week at most.

This time I only worked all morning and earned two and a half yuan.

And it costs almost nothing.

This is because I didn’t bring much today, and I didn’t dare to do too much the first time. As a result, there were still many people who wanted to buy, but they were all gone.

If I make a hundred bowls another day, it will cost five yuan.

Liu Yue felt a little excited and thanked the shop owner, "Thank you for reminding me. Let's make some more in the next few days."

The shop owner nodded with a smile. The water in his pool here is drawn directly from a nearby well, and the water is free.

They were lucky enough to meet a shopkeeper who was generous and easy to talk to.

The shop owner thought their business was good. There were many people passing by the door, so there was no chance that someone would want to buy a bowl of noodles after drinking their food.

Liu Yue put the vat back in the car, packed up everything, and went to the piglet market with Ye Jun.

There are piglets for sale this season, but even piglets are not easy to sell, so the ones kept at home are getting bigger and bigger.

Ye Jun secretly said to Liu Yue, "Do you think this piglet is big enough? It weighs more than fifteen pounds."

"Take it back and keep it until the Chinese New Year. If it grows a hundred pounds, you can kill pork and eat it."

"In previous years, our family has celebrated Chinese New Year, but we have never eaten anything good. This year, we can't guarantee that we will kill a pig."

Ye Jun was very happy. After saying this, his eyes were full of joy and he started talking more.

When everyone saw him pushing the cart, they knew he was serious about selling piglets, and they all greeted him warmly.

Liu Yue looked at the humming piglets and couldn't make up his mind for a moment.

"Which pig is better? I don't understand this."

"I think these piglets are pretty good." Although Ye Jun said it calmly, he still chose it for a long time.

This pig is related to the Chinese New Year, so it is natural to choose the best piglet.

In the end, Ye Jun spent a lot of money to buy the largest and healthiest piglet, which cost a total of nine yuan.

He put the pig on top of the car and tied the pig with a rope to prevent it from running around.

"Xiaoyue, then you sit in the back and be careful of the pig humping you."

Liu Yue smiled and said, "This pig isn't that big, so why am I afraid of it?"

Ye Jun got in the car, the two of them were talking and laughing, and rode back happily.

at home.

Ye Changan ate two bowls of perilla, peach and bayberry pulp and thought it tasted very good.

"Do you think my eldest brother and sister-in-law can sell well?"

"How do I know? It depends on whether people like it or not. I think it tastes pretty good and should be sold out."

"After all, five cents a bowl is not expensive, and city people will spend this money to eat whatever they like."

Ye Changan had to work in the fields in the afternoon, had lunch and then went out again.

However, Ye Xiaojin had nothing to do and turned over the previously cultivated land.

The carrots have been half eaten, so the original land can be used to grow other things.

Ye Xiaojin was busy all afternoon, sowing some cabbage seeds in the fields.

After a few days, you can eat fresh vegetables.

Recently, ducks often run and play in the river, and Li Cuicui pays special attention to them, for fear that the ducks will get into the rice fields.

She saw that Ye Xiaojin was fuming again, "Jinbao, are you hot?"

"It's okay, it's indeed a bit hot."
