"I've only been out for a few days! Little sister, did you make all these cold dishes yourself?"
"yes!"
"Wow, your cooking skills are really good. No one in our commune makes these things to sell! When more people come to buy vegetables, these cold dishes of yours will definitely be in great demand."
"Really? Thank you for your kind words, I hope so! Sister, what are you selling in that basket? It looks like clothes, right?"
"Yes, I'm selling vegetables just for fun. We can keep them for home. I mainly want to sell these children's clothes I made myself and see how they sell. I'll make more in the future!"
"Sister, you can also make children's clothes? That's amazing!"
When Shen Xiaobei blurted out to praise this woman, she suddenly felt that it seemed as if she was also praising herself.
After all, compared to cooking and making clothes, that is her strength.
"Haha, you're too kind, little sister! I just like sewing and do it for fun at home. Now that I have a lot more freedom to set up a stall, I rushed to make a few sets these days. Look, today is the first day I put them on sale!"
After saying that, the woman picked up the clothes in the basket, and Shen Xiaobei immediately came over and looked at the children's clothes she made with interest.
I have to say, this woman's lathe skills are quite good, and the threads are sewn very neatly and finely.
You can tell at first glance that he is a meticulous and conscientious person.
It's just that the fabric of the clothes is a bit poor, but the style is not too tacky, but it's not outstanding either. They are all basic short-sleeved T-shirts and pants.
It is quite consistent with the clothing of rural children in this era.
After the two chatted about clothes for a while, people came to see Shen Xiaobei's cold dishes. She immediately returned to her stall and enthusiastically introduced and promoted her dishes.
Generously let those who seem interested in buying a bite first try it for free. Generally, those who try it will end up paying for some.
In about an hour, most of Shen Xiaobei's cold dishes, both meat and vegetarian, had been sold.
It seems that with so many people in the commune, not everyone is like the vegetable seller who first gossiped with her, who is reluctant to even buy some meat for her children occasionally.
It was the sister who made clothes and had a stall next to her who was the best at speaking and her predictions were accurate.
This cold dish of hers was the first one to be served in the commune, and it was indeed very popular.
Seeing that this sister's vegetables were almost sold out, except for some peppers that had not been sold, Shen Xiaobei immediately packed a box of cold dishes with both meat and vegetables.
I walked over and said, "Sister, I need peppers to make some cold dishes. The peppers in my garden haven't grown yet. How about I exchange this box of cold dishes for these peppers?"
"Huh? You still have chicken legs and chicken feet in this box. If you exchange them with me, you'll lose money!"
"It's not a loss, not a loss. I'm just about to close my stall. I'm so happy to be able to exchange these leftovers for so many fresh peppers from you!"
"Well... well then! I'll give you these eggplants too!"
"Okay, thank you, sister. I won't be polite then! By the way, sister, we'll be together all morning. I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Shen Xiaobei, and I'm an educated youth from the Baiju Brigade! How about you, sister?"
"Oh, my little sister is an educated youth. No wonder she looks like an educated person. Look at me, I forgot to introduce myself to you!"
"My name is Gao Hongmian. My family is also from the Baiju Brigade, but I've married into the Heishui Brigade, so I'm considered a member of the Heishui Brigade. Little sister, should I call you Shen Zhiqing from now on, or—"
"Call me Xiaobei, it's more friendly! Then I'll call you Sister Hongmian from now on!"
"Okay, Xiaobei! Then I'll help you close the stall. I'll wait for my Donglin to come over before I close it!"
After the two exchanged dishes and names, Gao Hongmian enthusiastically helped Shen Xiaobei pack up the stall.
On the first day of setting up the stall, the business was not only a great success.
He also made a good friend who was easy to talk to at the stall, and Shen Xiaobei felt that he had gained a lot.
On the way back home, she stopped to take out some dry food from the space to fill her stomach, and then sat down to count the cash she received from the stall this morning.
She sells both meat and vegetables at a reasonable price, with meat dishes all priced at one yuan and twenty cents per pound.
There is a little bit of a price difference between some of the vegetarian dishes, but they are not easy to sell if sold separately, so they are all sold at 30 cents per pound.
Shen Xiaobei made about ten pounds of meat dishes in total, three pounds of chicken feet, three pounds of pig ears, and about four pounds of chicken legs. He made about fifteen pounds of vegetarian dishes in total.
Most of them were sold, and there was still some left. She had already packed a box and put it in her space, planning to deliver it to Ma Ji's family when she returned.
The rest, of course, was for himself, Fan Huifang, Deng Yuliang, and Ke Xiaoli to eat as a side dish for today.
Although most of the cold dishes this morning were sold, few people bought a pound at a time. Most people bought a few ounces.
Like chicken legs, some people even just bought one, so Shen Xiaobei collected a lot of cents.
It took her a while to count it all. She had earned a little over 12 yuan in total, which was more than the amount of work points she earned in a month. It turned out that only by spending a lot of money can you make big money!
She was extremely grateful that she had stockpiled so much meat and vegetables in the space. This showed how important it was to know how to plan ahead.
After storing the money in the space, Shen Xiaobei rode his bicycle, humming a little tune, and went home happily, ready to continue working hard tomorrow.
