Li Xiaofan didn't dwell on this matter anymore. It was more than thirty miles from Dashan Village to the county seat, and it would take two hours just to walk, not to mention carrying two loads of radishes.
He picked up the radishes, walked out of the vegetable field, picked the first load out of the village entrance, and then returned to the vegetable field to pick up the second load.
Just like this, we took turns taking turns, and when we arrived at the county seat, it was already nine o'clock.
When he arrived at the market, the stalls were almost full, so he had to put the radish in an inconspicuous corner.
Putting down the radish, Li Xiaofan saw the vegetable sellers around him looking at him strangely.
Everyone seems to be saying that at such a young age, instead of going to work to earn money, they do the most unpromising thing of selling vegetables at a street stall.
Li Xiaofan doesn't care at all. What he cares about is how to make money. No matter how tired he is, no matter what he does, he will be looked down upon by others. As long as he can make money, he will do it without hesitation.
After getting the radishes, Li Xiaofan had never sold them before, so he didn’t know the price, so he went to other stalls to ask.
Knowing that ordinary radishes sold for two yuan a pound, he started shouting when he came back.
"Selling radishes, fresh and big radishes, two yuan a pound."
When I heard the shouting, not to mention, there were actually groceries shopping ladies coming over.
"Why are your radishes bigger than others? It must be some kind of swelling hormone."
No matter how Li Xiaofan explained, the aunties didn't believe it and left after taking a look.
In this way, Li Xiaofan sold for more than an hour without selling a single radish.
While my eyes were wandering around the market, I saw a stall selling some small toys, and I saw buy one get one free. I also saw that his business was surprisingly good.
Suddenly, Li Xiaofan had a bold idea in his mind.
If you don’t let others eat your radishes, how will others know that my radishes taste special?
I don’t know how special the taste is, so why would I buy it again?
So, Li Xiaofan raised his voice and shouted loudly: "Big and sweet radish, two yuan a pound, buy one get one free, don't miss this opportunity, buy one get one free..."
While he was shouting loudly, a middle-aged man who had just walked into the market was going to ask about the price at the radish stall at the entrance to the market. He heard Li Xiaofan shouting buy one get one free and came over.
"The radish is quite big and looks quite fresh. Is it really buy one get one free?"
The middle-aged man said.
When Li Xiaofan saw a customer coming, he stopped shouting and said, "Uncle, I'm not going to lie to you, buy one, get one free."
At this time, the middle-aged man picked up a radish and weighed it in his hand: "Your radish weighs five kilograms! It seems that there must be something added in it, so I don't care what you add.
If it’s cheaper, I’ll buy sixty pounds.”
"Uncle, you can rest assured about the quality of these radishes. Buying one and getting one free is my maximum limit. It really can't get any cheaper."
Li Xiaofan said.
The middle-aged man hesitated for a while, as if he was calculating an account secretly, and then said: "Okay, just two yuan, two yuan, weigh sixty pounds for me."
At this time, Li Xiaofan weighed him two sixty pounds, which is one hundred and twenty pounds, and helped him carry it to the tricycle at the entrance of the market.
Returning to his carrot stall in the market, Li Xiaofan looked at the one hundred and twenty yuan in his hand, feeling indescribably excited.
To others, one hundred and twenty dollars is not worth mentioning at all.
But for Li Xiaofan at this moment, nothing can compare to the significance of this first harvest.
He continued to sit on the stall, shouting buy one get one free.
More than an hour passed, and we were in the office of a restaurant in a small county town.
A young and tall woman, Lin Xue, was sitting on a black swivel chair in the office. She was the owner of this restaurant, staring at the steaming bowl of radish soup on the desk in front of her in a daze.
At this time, a person came in from the door, it was the middle-aged man who was buying radishes from Li Xiaofan in the market.
The middle-aged man just came in and suddenly frowned when he saw the bowl of carrot soup on the desk.
When Lin Xue saw him coming in, she stood up, looked at the steaming radish soup and said, "Lao Wu, do you know why I asked you to come? Have you seen this bowl of radish soup on the table?"
When Lao Wu heard Lin Xue speak directly about radish soup, he was so frightened that his palms became sweaty and he said silently: "Could it be that there are really other hormones in this radish that will ruin the stomach of the guests..."
"Lao Wu, you haven't tasted this clear radish cube yet! Try it."
When he heard Lin Xue asking him to drink the soup on the table in front of him, Lao Wu was sweating profusely and felt anxious and overwhelmed. He picked up the carrot soup on the table with trembling hands.
Lin Xue changed the topic at this time: "Lao Wu, do you know which dish is the most popular at our hotel's private banquet today?"
"Braised pork, steamed fish..."
Lin Xue shook his head one by one: "The most popular dish at our banquet today is this clear radish cube."
"Mr. Lin, there's nothing wrong with the radish I bought, and it's also the most popular dish at today's banquet?"
Lao Wu suddenly became excited, and his hands that were holding the soup shook even more.
Lin Xue nodded silently, then drank the carrot soup brought by the waiter, and suddenly his face was full of excitement: "Yes, delicious, indeed a rare delicacy in the world."
After saying that, Lin Xue not only drank up the radish soup in the bowl, but also ate the chopped radish pieces in the bowl. The bowl was cleaner after eating than after washing.
When Lao Wu saw Lin Xue's scene, he also put the carrot soup in his hand to his mouth and drank it.
Before he could praise the radish soup, Lin Xue suddenly stood up, looked at him with a shining face, and said quickly: "Lao Wu, where did you buy the radish? I just asked the cook, and he said...
Only salt is added and no other ingredients are added. This soup is so delicious. It must be the uniqueness of radish that makes it taste so good."
Seeing Lao Wu nodding, Lin Xue called his assistant and pushed a big customer he was about to meet. Then he looked at Lao Wu and said, "Leave now, take me to the carrot seller. I want a lot of it."
Buy his carrots."
The assistant was suddenly stunned when he heard Mr. Lin say that he refused to meet the big customer because he wanted to find the carrot seller.
At this time, Lin Xue had already followed Lao Wu out of the office and hurried towards the market.
In the market, Li Xiaofan was still guarding the unsold radishes.
Twenty minutes later, Lin Xue, dressed in a fashionable red dress, walked into the market under the guidance of Lao Wu and went directly to Li Xiaofan.
Lao Wu pointed at Li Xiaofan, looked at Lin Xue with a respectful face and said, "Mr. Lin, I bought the radish from him today."
Before Li Xiaofan could figure out what was going on, Lin Xue looked at him with a smile and said: "This little brother, I am a restaurant owner in the county. Your radishes taste good. I want to buy all your radishes. As for the price, I
No matter what the market price is, I’ll give you seven yuan per catty, and I’ll also give you seven yuan per catty for the radishes I sold you before, do you think that’s okay?”
