In 1980, no one in China had ventured into the prepared food market.
It can be said that Fang Yan's move was the first to open up the prepared food market.
They were at least the first to open up the cooked food market in the county.
Although she wasn't a businesswoman in her previous life.
But the life experiences from the previous life weren't accumulated for nothing.
This time, she was very well prepared.
They also cut up a lot of samples and placed them on the lid of the metal bucket so that people who were worried about making a bad purchase could try them first before deciding whether to buy them.
"Sister, it's okay. The samples are free. You can take some to try if you want to buy anything. I have pig's head, pig's ears, pig's large intestine and small intestine here."
Although Fang Yan was frighteningly thin, thanks to the nourishment of the spring water, she was now radiant and her features were not bad. Although her smile wasn't particularly beautiful, she was like a sunflower bathed in sunlight, making people feel very comfortable looking at her.
The woman, who was initially hesitant due to the aroma of the braised food, picked up a small piece of pig's head meat and tried it after seeing Fang Yan's generous and warm hospitality.
She was only giving Fang Yan a try because of her enthusiasm.
Unexpectedly, he was immediately captivated by the aroma, his eyes lighting up instantly. He quickly asked Fang Yan, "Hey girl, how much is this pig's head meat?"
"A bundle like this costs one yuan for half a jin. Do you have a bowl or something? If so, I can give you some more braising sauce. This braising sauce is also delicious with rice." Fang Yan warmly welcomed the older sister.
The little fish looked at its mother for a while, then at the woman buying groceries, and tilted its head to think for a bit. It then realized that its mother was selling things to make money.
With money, they can eat lots of delicious food.
The little one nodded vigorously and emphasized to his older sister in a childish voice, "Yes, it's delicious with rice."
The woman buying groceries saw that the mother and son were both very thin and looked pitiful. Moreover, the food was indeed very delicious, so she didn't say anything more. She took out a large ceramic bowl from her basket and said, "Give me two bundles of pig's head meat and some braising sauce."
She originally intended to use this big bowl to buy milk.
Unfortunately, the milk seller didn't come today, so I can use the milk to store the braised food.
In the small villages near the county seat, some people raise cattle and sheep. After the cattle and sheep give birth, if they have too much milk and can't finish it, they will take the cattle and sheep to the market and milk them on the spot to sell.
When Fang Yan got the pig's head meat, she noticed that the pig's large intestine and small intestine were sold together in a bundle, which looked pretty good.
The older woman then asked, "How much are the pig intestines?"
"A bundle is also half a jin, six mao."
"Then give me a bundle too."
Although a set of pig offal outside only costs a few cents, it is extremely difficult to clean, and if not cooked properly, it is inedible.
The price of six cents is a bit expensive, but they wash and braise it, and it tastes delicious. More importantly, no ration coupons are needed.
The older sister thought it was still a good deal.
For her first order, it was 2.5 yuan, and Fang Yan even gave her a big spoonful of braising sauce as a bonus.
"Young lady, I just want to buy a bundle of pig intestines, could you please give me the braising liquid?" An old man with several large patches on his clothes asked somewhat embarrassedly while holding a bowl.
Fang Yan and Xiao Yuzi were wearing old clothes with patches on them. Just like she had treated the older woman in front of them, she greeted the old man with the same warmth and generosity, saying, "Of course, sir."
I gave the old man a bundle of food and also gave him a large spoonful of braising sauce.
"Thank you! Thank you!" The old man said thank you twice, expressing his gratitude after receiving the money.
He had no money, but his wife was sick and wanted to eat some meat.
He originally intended to go to a restaurant and ask someone for two or three slices of meat.
Unexpectedly, I happened to run into this little girl selling braised food.
The first couple of customers have already made their purchases. As you can see, this frighteningly thin woman sells braised food. Although the prices are a bit high, the stall owner is quite generous and gives out a lot of braising sauce.
The braising liquid is full of meat flavor. If you use it to mix with rice or noodles, it's just like eating meat.
As a result, more and more people came to try the food, and more and more people bought it...
"Hey girl, give me a bundle of pig's head meat and a bundle of pig intestines."
"I want three bundles of pig's head meat."
"I want……"
Once it went on sale, business came in non-stop.
Another point is that Fang Yan's marketing skills are quite good.
They cut up so many samples and put them there for everyone to try.
Almost everyone who tried it was captivated by its taste.
And that's how business started to boom!
In less than an hour, Fang Yan sold out all the leftover pig's head and four offal dishes from last night.
"Girl, is that all?" The people who rushed over with their lunchboxes were dumbfounded. "I just went home to get a lunchbox, how come it's all gone?"
"Auntie, how about this, there's still a little bit of braising liquid left. I won't charge you, you can share it and try it today. Come back earlier tomorrow to buy more, okay?"
Fang Yan shared the remaining braising liquid in the bucket with the few people who hadn't been able to buy any braised food.
Everyone was incredibly grateful, thinking, "Girl, you are such a kind person."
"Young lady, are you really coming back to set up your stall tomorrow?"
"I must come early tomorrow to buy it."
...
On the shrewdness of a businessman.
Look, by being generous and distributing the remaining two or three pounds of braising liquid, she has already secured several orders for tomorrow.
This deal is a win-win situation.
After selling the meat, Fang Yan carried an empty bucket in one hand and held Xiao Yuzai's hand in the other, and went to the butcher shop to buy more meat.
She arrived early today, and there was still pork belly, pork shoulder, and pork leg meat left.
However, she didn't buy any of those; she continued to only buy pig heads, tails, and intestines that didn't require meat coupons.
Three pig heads, seven pig intestines, four pig tails, and seeing that there was pig liver, Fang Yan cut off half of it.
She and Little Fish need to eat more iron-rich foods to replenish their blood.
Pig liver is one of the best foods for replenishing blood.
She pretended to put everything into the bucket, but in reality, she threw everything into the kitchen space, only putting two pig tails in the bucket to cover her tracks.
"Is Little Fish hungry?" Fang Yan asked the little guy as they came out of the butcher's stall.
"Just a tiny bit, only a tiny bit." Little Fish gestured with the size of a fingernail.
Fang Yan was completely charmed by him and couldn't help but squat down and give him a good rub. "What a coincidence! Mommy is a little hungry too. Let's go buy something to eat."
Someone was frying turnip pancakes by the roadside; they smelled delicious.
"Auntie, how much is this pancake?"
Fang Yan led Xiao Yuzai toward the stall selling radish cakes, unaware that behind them, a pair of eyes widened in disbelief upon seeing them...
