The porcelain factory has a big iron gate, and outside the gate there are people selling vegetables, eggs, and various other things.
Xiangnan put the cake out and as soon as he opened the basket, the aroma of eggs rushed towards the people nearby.
The uncle selling live fish at the stall next to him leaned over to take a look and said, "Hey, lady, what are you selling? Why are they so fragrant and so big?"
"Uncle, this is a cake. You can cut a small piece. It tastes pretty good. Would you like to try a piece? You can give it to me for free."
Xiangnan doesn’t care who the first customer is, those who sell things can also be her customers.
The porcelain factory is in business hours now, so there definitely aren't many people coming out. It's better to do other people's business first.
When he heard it was free, the uncle quickly took a piece, thinking it would be a waste if he didn’t eat it.
He won’t buy it anyway even if he eats it.
But when I put it in my mouth, oh my, how could it be so soft? It tasted like egg and it was so delicious.
The uncle smacked his lips after finishing the meal, still feeling unsatisfied.
"How much do you sell this for?" The uncle had already forgotten the idea that he had just vowed to eat for free.
"This big cake costs one dollar, and can be divided into five small pieces. Each small piece costs thirty cents."
"So expensive! That meat bun shop at the corner of the street puts a big piece of meat in it and only costs 20 cents each. Yours is too expensive."
Xiangnan smiled and said, "Uncle, it's expensive for a reason. You should know it's worth it after you've tasted it."
The uncle had never eaten anything more delicious than this. It was so soft and fluffy when he took a bite, and it was full of the aroma of egg. He felt hungry just by smelling it.
“It’s really good, but too expensive.”
“It’s a bit expensive, but there’s nothing I can do about it. The cost is high, and I have to make it so soft over and over again, which wastes a lot of unsuccessful ingredients.
You know how strong the smell of eggs is, so I’m reluctant to put them in.”
The uncle looked at his big bucket of live fish and said, "Okay, if I sell my fish later, I'll buy you two small ones to take back for my grandson to try."
The uncle was reluctant to eat such an expensive thing himself, but he let his two grandsons have a taste.
Seeing that they could taste the food for free, the vendors came over. Xiangnan gave them a small piece to try, but he was not in a hurry to ask them to buy it.
The product is so good that you don’t even need to praise it. You will be attracted by it after trying it.
At around eleven o'clock, people started to come out of the big iron gate after get off work, and Xiangnan warmly invited them to try the food.
The workers, who had been working for most of the day, were already a little hungry at mealtime and could not resist the aroma of eggs, so they all bought some.
If you don’t have enough to eat, just buy a big piece to take home.
The main thing is that it tastes good.
The porcelain factory is profitable, and the lowest-paid workers there earn thirty yuan a month. One yuan is not that expensive for them.
Xiangnan's stall was gradually crowded with people. As there were so many people, she didn't even need to introduce the stalls. Everyone just followed her lead and bought some to try.
By lunchtime, Xiangnan had sold a basket of cakes.
She loaded another basket of cakes onto the tricycle, rode it to the bun shop the fishmonger mentioned, and bought two meat buns.
The buns were not big, only about the size of her palm, but there was quite a bit of meat inside, but they still cost twenty cents each.
The cakes she bought for thirty cents a piece were quite large and had an eggy aroma. Most importantly, they were just as delicious when cold.
Xiangnan thought for a moment and asked the auntie selling buns: "Auntie, are you the boss here?"
The proprietress Qian Aiying nodded: "Yes, is there anything wrong with the buns?"
"No, no, I want to discuss a business with you. I wonder if you are willing."
Qian Aiying looked at her defensively: "What business?"
Xiangnan took out a piece of cake from the basket of the tricycle and spread it in front of her: "My family makes this kind of cake, you can try a piece."
Xiangnan took a small piece and handed it to her: "I just sold a lot at the entrance of the porcelain factory. I brought two baskets here, and I have already sold one basket. This sells very well.
I thought of selling some cakes in your bun shop so you can make more money."
Qian Aiying took a bite and said, "Little comrade, do you mean to sell this cake to me?"
"Yes, I'll put it on consignment with you. If I sell a large piece, I'll give you a dime."
Qian Aiying had no way of refusing. Consignment did not cost her anything, and she could still make money by just selling it along with the goods.
Xiangnan deposited a hundred cakes at the bun shop, asked Qian Aiying to sign a receipt, and then rode his tricycle to the state-owned restaurant.
Li You was standing outside the state-owned restaurant, leaning on his bicycle and looking around. When he saw her riding over, he happily pushed his bicycle over.
"Sister, how are the cakes selling? Hey, both baskets are empty. Did you sell them all?"
"I sold one basket, and I sent the other basket to sell at the bun shop. I'll give the shop owner some dividends when the time comes."
Li You looked at her and said, "Sister, you left the things in someone else's shop without taking a penny? Aren't you afraid that she will deny it or run away after taking it?"
Xiangnan patted his shoulder and said, "When doing business, you can't take care of this and that. My 100 cakes can only cost 100 yuan at most.
Her bun shop has a good location and good business. It's impossible for her to run away just for my hundred dollars.
I asked her to sign and seal it, and she didn't dare deny it. If she dares to cheat, I'll call the police."
Renting a shop would cost a lot of money and might not even be possible. She could easily put the cakes in such a good location to sell them. Nothing could be better than this.
Li You gave her a thumbs up: "Sister, you are really amazing. You can tell at a glance that you are someone who can do great things!"
"This is just small change. We'll do bigger things in the future. Let's go eat and then go shopping in the department store."
Li You locked his bicycle and tricycle together and was about to enter the state-owned hotel when a jeep drove past them towards Heping Town.
Li You looked envious: "This kind of car must be very expensive. It runs really fast, much faster than a tractor."
"It's not very expensive, just over ten thousand. We can always afford it if we make more money."
Li You said excitedly: "Sis, I can afford this kind of car if I follow you."
"Of course I can. If I can't even buy this car, what am I doing here?"
After all, he is the heir to a wealthy family. He may not be good at other things, but he is very careful when it comes to business.
