Chapter 249 Immediately surrounded a large circle of people
Every time the county organizes a condolence performance, the county performs first.
Because there are so many people in the county, the stage square cannot accommodate so many people, so the performance will be performed over two days and will be watched in batches.
Then we went to the various towns below.
In Huixi County, there are ten towns and eight townships. The cultural troupe is divided into four groups to perform in four places a day. The whole round of performances in the townships lasts for five days.
Zhixiang Town is on the third day of the queue. Including the time spent in local repairs, the people from the provincial capital's cultural troupe have been here for at least six days.
After such a long time, Fang Ruofei should have met Yu Jinggui, right?
I don’t know what the situation will be like when they meet. Will it be pleasant?
In the past six days, Yu Jinggui didn't go back.
So she heard nothing about it.
Although Yu Jinggui denied liking Fang Ruofei, Chen Zhaozhao always felt that Yu Jinggui was afraid or embarrassed to admit it because of the autobiography and gossip he had read in his previous life.
Even if he really doesn't like her, what is Fang Ruofei's attitude towards him?
If she likes him, there is a 50% chance that the two of them will be together.
As the saying goes, women chase men's spacer yarn.
Fang Ruofei chased him all the way, Yu Jinggui must be very moved, right?
Chen Zhaozhao felt very excited when he thought of the two of them being together, but he was also a little sad under the excitement.
sad?
Chen Zhaozhao was startled, why was she sad?
She quickly shook her head to get rid of the unnecessary emotions.
The stage square in the town is in the middle of the town. When Chen Zhaozhao and the others came outside the square, they found that the square was already full of people. There was a row of baskets selling things on the edge of the square. Many people crowded there to buy things. Of course, there were also just
Just watch the fun.
"Why do you feel there are so many people this time?" Chen Simei looked at the crowded square and tried hard to find a seat.
"Perhaps there are people from other places who came to the provincial capital's cultural troupe and group flowers." Chen Zhaozhao guessed and secretly hugged Chen Xiaoni tighter.
"There are so many people, where should we sit?" Chen Sanmei also looked around to find a seat.
Zhang Genshan and Chen Ermei also supported Chen Damei on the left and right, and looked around.
Chen Zhaozhao and Chen Dawang looked for a place to put their burdens.
"You guys find a place to sit here first, and Dad and I will put the burden on you first," Chen Zhaozhao said.
"Okay." Everyone agreed, and Chen Zhaozhao pointed to a place for Chen Dawang to go over.
The advantage of selling things in a performance venue in this era is that no one is in charge and no one is trying to grab the space. You can place them wherever you want.
Unlike later generations, where there were many people setting up stalls on similar occasions, there were dedicated people in charge of collecting stall fees, and they had to occupy the stalls early and compete with others for stalls.
Chen Zhaozhao has been robbed by others for two years and has experience in selling things on such occasions.
After they put down their burdens, a large circle of people immediately gathered around them.
"What are you selling?"
"Fried soybeans." Chen Zhaozhao replied.
"Ouch, it's fried soybeans again." Some people left disappointed when they heard it was fried soybeans. There are too many fried soybeans, and the taste is really hard to describe.
In addition, many people also cook and eat soybeans themselves, so they don’t want to buy them.
"Hey, don't go! Our fried soybeans are different from ordinary fried soybeans." Chen Zhaozhao quickly stopped the person.
At this time, Chen Dawang finally opened the basket that was tightly sealed and tied with oilcloth, and the rich and spicy smell spread out.
Everyone around them took a deep breath and praised, "It smells so good!"
“It smells so good!”
"What kind of fried soybeans are you doing? Why are they so fragrant?"
"This is Crispy Soybean." Chen Zhaozhao gave Chen Xiaoni to Chen Dawang and went to find Chen Damei and the others.
He took out a small paper bag of soybeans from the basket and opened them for everyone to taste. "You all have a try and see if they taste good before you buy them."
If you can taste it for free, everyone immediately reaches out to take it. After eating the soybeans, everyone's expressions seem to have opened the door to a new world.
"Hmm, these soybeans are so delicious."
"This is the first time I know that fried soybeans can be so delicious?"
"Wow, this is so delicious. How do you sell it?"
"Five cents a bag." The paper bags Chen Zhaozhao prepared were very small. She didn't sell them by weight, but by bags.
"How much does this bag weigh?" someone asked in disgust.
"This bag is two and a half."
"Only two and a half? Then it costs two cents per pound? Isn't it too expensive?"
"You get what you pay for." Chen Zhaozhao said with a smile, "My soybeans are more delicious than ordinary fried soybeans. You see there is oil and salt on them. It's all money. It's very cheap to sell it for two cents a pound.
Already."
So everyone started to negotiate the price, and Chen Zhaozhao would not sell it cheap no matter what they said.
Some people shook their heads and walked away because they thought it was expensive, some cursed and walked away, and most of them were gone in one go, but some people were really reluctant to part with it after smelling the fragrance, so they gritted their teeth and bought it.
Because the price is expensive, after all, most of the people who come to watch the performance are villagers, and they are not willing to spend so much money to buy fried soybeans. No matter how fragrant and different the fried soybeans are, in the end they are still fried soybeans.
Therefore, Chen Zhaozhao's business is not very good.
Compared with the ones selling candies and fruit candies next door, it's far behind.
However, there were quite a few people surrounding her, because someone came towards her face.
Just like dragging a crowd of 2,580,000 people to get to the front of the crowd, these young men looked like they were not good people at first glance.
There is no shortage of such people in any era.
Chen Zhaozhao looked at them and asked with a smile, "Do you want to buy soybeans?"
"Girl, I heard that your soybeans are very expensive." The leading young man raised his chin and squinted his eyes, looking at Chen Zhaozhao with interest.
"Oh? Is it expensive? I don't think so." The smile on Chen Zhaozhao's face deepened, which fascinated several young people.
Seeing that there was going to be excitement, a large circle of people immediately gathered around.
Today's stage and square are indispensable for people, and what people like most is to watch the excitement.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Zhaozhao was surrounded by people from three levels inside and three outside.
When Chen Simei came to find Chen Zhaozhao and wanted to tell her the location, she found that she couldn't squeeze in.
Because there were too many people, she couldn't even see Chen Zhaozhao. She only heard her voice coming from inside, "Oh? What do you want me to do?"
"I hear your voice is very nice. Sing "Good Brother" to me and I will buy your soybean." The young man said arrogantly.
The onlookers immediately burst into laughter, and some even booed.
"Good Brother" is a love song ditty circulated in the village. According to people's thinking nowadays, this is not a serious song. The young man who said this was just teasing Chen Zhaozhao.
Chen Simei was anxious and angry after hearing this. She tried her best to squeeze in, but when she was halfway through, she suddenly felt her pocket being pulled down. She quickly went to press the pocket and found that the purse inside was missing. She was startled.
Turning her head, she saw a suspicious figure hurriedly walking out. She squinted her eyes and gritted her teeth and quickly chased after him.
Anyway, Chen Zhaozhao is so powerful that he can easily deal with a few stinky gangsters.
She still had to chase her purse, which contained all the candy money she had spent tonight, and she hadn't even spent a penny yet.
There were too many people, so Chen Zhaozhao didn't notice Chen Simei. She listened to the young man's words and laughed with the people around her, then darkened her face and said coldly.
