Song Nanzhi's words made the guests who tasted it feel a little pity. In addition, after tasting it, it tasted good. Looking at the dustpan on the basket, everything was clean and tidy, so some people wanted to buy a piece to take home. The family tasted it, and a woman holding a basket tasted a piece of luncheon meat and said, "Give me a piece."
Song Nanzhi happily took out a good piece of luncheon meat wrapped in cabbage from his backpack and handed it to the woman: "I washed this dish thoroughly before wrapping it."
The woman took out two strings of copper coins from her purse and handed them to Song Nanzhi, "I can see that my aunt is very particular."
With the first person, there is the second person. In addition, the three children were still shouting, and the voices kept coming and going. Song Nanzhi's backpack was always surrounded by a full circle of people. .z.br>
When there were more people, the small pieces of lunch meat for free tasting in the bowl quickly ran out, but fortunately, there was not much lunch meat to make. Four pounds of meat made more than six pounds of lunch meat, and it was divided into The amount of half a catty is only twelve yuan, and one yuan is twenty cents.
Twenty cents for half a catty of meat was not cheap, but there was no shortage of rich people in the county, and there were so many people calling from three loudspeakers that all the lunch meat was sold in less than two-quarters of an hour.
After waiting for the last piece to be sold, the three people standing by the basket all had smiles on their faces. Especially the wrinkles on Song Nanzhi's face had deepened a lot. Don't worry about not being able to sell it. They greeted Li Linsongsan. Someone came over and said, "Lin Song, Mo Li is coming back with the eucalyptus soon. We sold out and walked home."
As soon as the three of them heard that it was sold out, they turned around and ran back. Li Linsong asked, "Why was it sold out so quickly?"
Song Nanzhi smiled and said, "Do you want to shout a little longer?"
Li Linsong shouted excitedly, "We'll shout again tomorrow!"
Murong Qingyuan also laughed, "Then you have to be more serious when you go back to study, otherwise you won't be able to come."
Li Linsong was happy to agree. As long as he could come, he would definitely study hard, "Okay, I will definitely study hard."
Li Qiye was not far behind, "I want to come too."
Song Nanzhi had a smile on his face. The children were so obedient. Whoever disagreed said, "Come, come all!"
Mo Ziyuan took advantage of the situation and answered: "Then let's go buy meat quickly, otherwise the meat will be sold out in a while."
Song Nanzhi was worried about not being able to sell the luncheon meat before, but now he no longer has to worry. Not only was the luncheon meat sold out in a short time today, but there were still people who wanted to buy it after it was sold out. It's a pity that it's gone, otherwise he could have sold more. This is another regret for not doing more. Of course, Song Nanzhi also smiled at those who wanted to buy but couldn't, and politely asked them to come back tomorrow morning, saying they would still be at this place.
Even with the business for tomorrow, Song Nanzhi must be active in buying meat. He immediately responded: "Okay, let's go buy meat now. After buying the meat, I will buy you a bag of candies to eat back." I wanted to buy it yesterday. , but I spent almost a hundred pennies yesterday, and I was a little reluctant to part with it. I made money today, so of course I had to buy candies for the kids.
Song Nanzhi put the bowls, plates, and the remaining bamboo sticks back into the basket, then covered the dustpan with one hand, lifted it up with one hand, and put it on his back. He turned to the old woman selling vegetables and spoke again. He greeted: "Sister, I'm sorry for quarreling with you today!"
The old woman was also easy to get along with, and said with a smile: "Don't say that, the kids called me over, and I sold a lot of the food and went out. I wish they would call me a little longer."
Seeing that she was easy to get along with, Song Nanzhi added, "If this is what I think, sister, we can still sell together next to each other tomorrow, and it will be more lively."
The old woman nodded, "Well, I'm here early, and I'll hold a seat for you tomorrow."
Song Nanzhi thanked her hurriedly: "That's great, thank you very much, sister."
After talking to the old woman, Song Nanzhi took the five children and walked towards the meat stall, which was the same one they usually went to. When the butcher stall owner saw Song Nanzhi walking over, he thought that they had just bought a few kilograms of meat yesterday and they might not be able to sell it today, but they were all acquaintances. The butcher stall owner greeted him with a smile on his face: "Auntie, this is Are you taking the kids out for a walk?"
Song Nanzhi walked to the meat stall and said, "Baby
I haven’t been to the county for a long time, so I took them out for a walk today. ” Then he said: “Your business is good, more than half of the meat has been sold.”
The butcher stall owner smiled and said, "I'll make do with it. I'll ask my aunt to take more care of my little business in the future!"
Song Nanzhi followed his words and said, "It's cheaper for you. I can take care of you every day."
When the butcher stall owner heard what she said, he didn't take her words seriously, and she didn't look like a rich person. When he heard that she was joking, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, aunt. If you come, I will definitely give you a cheaper price."
Song Nanzhi continued, "That's what you said. I'm going to buy a few more kilograms of meat. What price would you give me?"
The butcher stall owner was a little surprised when he heard what Song Nanzhi said. He just bought four kilograms of meat yesterday. Even with these kids, four kilograms of meat is a lot. The butcher stall owner took another look at Song Nanzhi and the children, but judging from their clothes, they were indeed not rich people, but they ate meat every day. He was afraid that they would not dare to eat it every day if they didn't have any money at home. But how could they Living a good life is someone else's business, so he still said with a smile on his face: "Auntie, are you going to buy a lot today?"
Song Nanzhi pointed to two large pieces of meat weighing more than ten kilograms and said, "I want both of these pieces. It's only been half an hour, so you have to give me a bargain."
The owner of the butcher stall is also an honest person, and said: "I will definitely give it to my aunt at a cheaper price when she buys so much meat, but these two large pieces of meat only weigh about ten kilograms. Is it possible that my aunt will have some happy events at home if she buys so much meat?"
Song Nanzhi didn't intend to hide it. If it was suitable, it would be convenient to buy meat from him in the future. He said: "It's not a big happy event. I made some food and need some meat every day. Why don't I come to you here?" Come on, boss, otherwise we wouldn’t dare buy and eat this meat every day.”
The butcher stall owner did not expect that she, who only dared to cut a small piece of meat before, would now become his big customer. He said: "Auntie is opening the business. I will congratulate you first. Today, you are a meaty auntie." It's five cents per catty. From now on, Auntie will still buy it like today, and it will be calculated as sixteen cents per catty. What do you think, Auntie?"
Song Nanzhi chose this restaurant to buy meat after shopping around the entire county. The owner of this restaurant was kind and he had never looked down on her before. She only bought a small piece of meat. No matter how much, she was always polite and the price was fair. , after the butcher stall owner told the price, Song Nanzhi thought that he had bought too much, and if the business was good in the future, he would buy more, so he added another sentence, "The meat I want is meat with little oil and water. If you buy too much at one time, I’m afraid there will be more in the future, so you can give me a cheaper price.”
The owner of the butcher stall said: "My aunt is an honest person, and I am not that cunning person. At this price, I can only earn my aunt two or three cents."
Song Nanzhi saw that his price had increased a lot, so he didn't say much more and said, "Then you weigh the meat and see how much it is?"
After hearing this, the butcher stall owner quickly picked up the scale, hooked the two pieces of meat together with the scale hook, and slowly moved the weight until the end of the scale rod was raised high, but he stubbornly refused to let himself continue to tilt upward. At this time, the owner of the butcher stall put the tall tilted scale beam in front of Song Nanzhi, "Auntie, twelve pounds and two ounces, it counts as twelve pounds for you, and the extra two ounces is also a blessing from me to auntie."
Song Nanzhi happily took the meat. Before she could calculate the money in her heart, Mo Ziwan said, "Grandma, twelve pounds of meat totals one hundred and eighty cents. Count eighteen skewers for uncle." Just copper coins."
Of course Song Nanzhi believed in his granddaughter, but he still looked at the owner of the meat stall, "Boss, can you see if it's one hundred and eighty cents?"
The butcher stall owner was surprised for a moment and nodded in response: "Yes, it's one hundred and eighty yuan." Then he looked at Mo Ziwan and said, "Auntie, no wonder you love your little granddaughter. If my daughter was as smart as your granddaughter, I would be too. I gave her whatever she wanted."
Song Nanzhi's unabashed smile crept up the corner of his mouth, and he also praised: "She just likes to read." As he spoke, he counted eighteen skewers of the copper coins he had just collected from selling luncheon meat and handed them to the butcher stall owner. "You count."
Six pounds of lunch meat was cut into twelve pieces, each piece cost 20 cents, and the total was sold for 240 cents. Excluding the 72 cents cost of buying the meat, the profit was 168 cents, and then minus The cost of seasoning and sweet potato starch was estimated at 20 cash, and there was still nearly 150 cash left.
Mo Ziyuan calculated the account when she was at home, but there was nothing she could do, it was too little and she could calculate it in one go. Looking at the one hundred and eighty cents given by Song Nanzhi, there was no need to calculate it. If he bought two kilograms less meat, the money earned would be enough to buy meat. It seems that this small business is still very impressive. Not only is it impressive, but the most important thing is What's more, this business doesn't take much time. I think I can prepare the lunch meat when I go back today, and I can come to the county to buy it early tomorrow morning. I might as well bring the two speakers, Li Linsong and Mo Li, with me. Sold out early and went home.
After buying the meat, Song Nanzhi went to the pastry shop and bought a pack of osmanthus sugar. After buying the candy, he gave it to Murong Qingyuan, "Qingyuan, take it and share it with your brothers and sisters."
Murong Qingyuan took the candy, opened the rope, took out a piece and fed it to Song Nanzhi first, saying, "Grandma, eat a piece first."
Just looking at the candy handed to him, Song Nanzhi's heart felt as sweet as drinking honey, but thinking about leaving the candy for the children, he tilted his head to one side and said, "Qingyuan darling, you guys can eat it, grandma doesn't like it." Sweet."
Murong Qingyuan listened to Song Nanzhi talking to him like she was teasing a little baby. He felt a little embarrassed, but in his heart he liked her talking to him like this, "Grandma doesn't eat, and neither do we."
Mo Ziyuan was walking with Li Linyu. After hearing Song Nanzhi's words, she stepped forward and took her hand and said, "Grandma eats it. We eat it only after grandma eats it. Otherwise, we don't eat it at all."
Mo Li originally took Song Nanzhi with him, but now he also said, "Grandma won't eat, and I won't eat either." After saying that, he looked up at Song Nanzhi.
However, Li Linsong had another advice and shouted: "Grandma Song, eat quickly. Only after eating will you have the strength to make more luncheon meat. Otherwise, you won't have the strength to chop this meaty meat."
Seeing that there was candy to eat, Li Linyu followed Murong Qingyuan and looked eagerly at the candy in his hand. Although he didn't say anything about asking for candy, his dark eyes were full of desire.
Seeing the posture of several children, Song Nanzhi had no choice but to take the candy from Murong Qingyuan's hand and feed it into his mouth, "Okay, I'll eat it. You guys also eat quickly. Let's eat a piece of Eucalyptus first. He also worked hard today." Already."
"Okay." Respondent Murong Qingyuan took out another candy bag from his hand and fed it into Li Linyu's mouth, but he still said, "Eat one piece first, and then go back and eat later."
Li Linyu opened his mouth to take the sweet-scented osmanthus candy, wrapped it in his mouth, and responded obediently and contentedly: "Yes."
Then Murong Qingyuan took out another piece of candy, and then fed a piece to Mo Ziwan, and then Mo Li and Li Linsong. After feeding, they all took another piece for themselves and fed it into their mouths, "Keep the rest first. We’ll eat it when we get back.”
After buying the candy, Song Nanzhi stopped delaying. It was already noon, and the children were still hungry. He wanted to go back and cook for them early, "Let's walk home."
Mo Ziwan said: "Grandma, we forgot to buy something."
"What?" Song Nanzhi thought about the seasonings for the lunch meat. Although he bought meat again today, the salt and soy sauce he bought yesterday were still enough. There was also some sweet potato starch left at home. He really couldn't think of returning it. What's wrong?
Mo Ziwan said: "Grandma, we only have one kitchen knife at home. Now we have to chop more meat and cut red potatoes. One knife is definitely not enough. We have to get another kitchen knife."
