Chapter 62 Can’t Eat Spicy Food
Shen Yueyao was also grateful for the strong aroma of the chili meat sauce and the braised food.
Seeing everyone's curious expressions, Shen Yueyao smiled and explained, "This bucket contains chili meat sauce, and this bucket contains braised food. A large spoonful costs two cents. The ones on the plate over here are free to taste. Everyone can take chopsticks and try them for free."
The people who gathered around were all villagers from nearby villages. Many of them wanted to take advantage of the food and thought they had to try it for free.
Everyone picked up their chopsticks to taste it.
Fortunately, Shen Yueyao had prepared some extra wooden chopsticks in advance.
It's a bit rough, but it doesn't affect eating.
"Oh my God, this is so delicious. What a delicious thing." A strong woman spoke excitedly in such a loud voice that it alarmed the people around her.
It was still morning, and there were many people setting up stalls, but not many people coming to the market.
So the market was not so noisy, and this voice covered up many other sounds, and the voice could be heard from far away.
Those who were chatting and bargaining couldn't help but look over here.
"What?"
"What are they talking about? Why don't you go and take a look?"
At this time, the villagers' thoughts were relatively simple and they would not suspect whether there was an agent behind the scenes.
I guess they don’t even know it.
Of course, Shen Yueyao did not hire anyone to help her, but relied on the taste of the food itself to attract customers.
"Wow, this is really delicious. What is it made of? It tastes better than meat."
"And this, it's so spicy and refreshing, it's really strong. It would be so delicious if you eat it with tortillas."
“It does taste good.”
"Big sister, why haven't we seen you come to the market before? If you had set up a stall before, we would definitely remember you."
"It's just such delicious food, it will always leave an impression on me. We live in the next village, and we come here every time there's a market. We come early to buy things to take home."
Most of the women in the village are straightforward and speak frankly. They think the food tastes good and can't help but praise it several times.
Moreover, they have too few delicious foods to eat on a daily basis. When they come across such delicious food, many of them look greedy and want to eat more.
His eyes were fixed on the barrel.
Some people who didn't eat breakfast started to feel their stomachs growling.
I can’t wait to buy some home and eat it with the steamed buns at home. It will definitely go well with rice.
"Really two cents a spoonful?"
Shen Yueyao nodded and said, "Yes, two cents for a large spoonful. If you buy it, it comes with boxes, bowls and plates."
Chen Yueyao knew that when the village held a market, many things were sold in bulk, and some could not be wrapped in oil paper. Many villagers brought their own utensils to the market to make it easier to pack things.
"Give me two big spoonfuls."
"Give me a spoonful of this braised food. I have many children at home and they can't eat spicy food, so they eat braised food instead."
Someone else said, "I should have brought a jar earlier. What should I do now?"
Shen Yueyao collected money while scooping food for everyone.
People in the village still think that such things are cheap so they are willing to buy them.
When serving braised food to everyone, Shen Yueyao usually scoops out a full spoonful and also scoops out some soup for everyone.
"These soups can be eaten with bread or rice. They are very tasty."
The people who bought the braised food were so happy to see Shen Yueyao being so cheerful that they all smiled.
"Big sister, you are such a real person. You scooped so much soup for me. It tasted so good. Next time you come to the market, I will buy some for you."
The woman said this with a smile on her face, her face full of joy.
The main thing is that this braised food tastes better than meat, and I just tried it, and it was full of meaty aroma and very oily.
They usually don't want to eat anything oily.
Oil, salt and meat are all very expensive.
But now you can buy such a big spoonful for two cents, and take it home to enjoy as a snack, how can I not be happy.
Shen Yueyao was also very happy, "Okay, I'll set up a stall next time I go to the market, and you can just come and buy it then, big sister."
As the two sides were talking, the woman took the things and went back.
There were also people from this village who didn't bring any tools, so they hurried home to get them.
Although the villagers are used to being frugal and would rather spend every penny carefully, when they go to the market, they also want to buy some affordable and delicious food.
If you have children at home, you can buy it without hesitation.
Some people just spend four cents to buy two large spoonfuls.
However, there are also those who wear patched clothes and save as much as they can. Even if they keep swallowing their saliva at the fragrance, they are reluctant to spend a penny.
The conditions in each village are different, and the conditions in each villager's home are also different.
Some people have better financial conditions and are willing to buy food, while others are reluctant to spend a penny.
However, there is one advantage of holding a big market in the village, that is, there is a large flow of people.
Villagers also have a habit of buying things, which is to follow the trend.
When I see which stall has a lot of people buying things, I can't help but go over to take a look and join in the fun, thinking that the food must be delicious if there are a lot of people buying.
"There are so many people queuing up, I don't know what it is."
"No matter what, if there are many people, it means the product must be good. Let's take a look."
"It smells delicious. If it's cheap, I'd buy some to try."
There were people in front who had bought something and were putting their bowls in a basket to go home. People behind them couldn't help but ask, "What's that thing in front? There are so many people around, we can't see it clearly."
The old lady in question said with a smile, "It's filled with braised food, with plenty of oil and water. A big spoonful of soup makes a bowl for only two cents, which is a great deal. If you want to buy it, hurry up. I see that young lady brought a bucket, and if there are too many people, I don't think there will be enough to sell."
On ordinary days, villagers rarely see delicious food.
Things like meat are delicious, but they are expensive.
They don’t even get to taste it on weekdays.
It’s not that there are no places selling braised pork, but the price of braised pork is more than 30 cents per pound, which is too expensive for everyone.
But the prices they sell are actually not that high. Meat is expensive to begin with, and various kinds of bean paste and noodle sauce are not cheap either. The cost is not cheap, so it won’t be much cheaper if it is sold outside.
But the braised food made by Shen Yueyao is made with pig offal. Since she buys a lot of meat from the butcher, these are all given as gifts.
In addition, the spices are picked from the mountains and are cheap, so she sells them cheaply.
I originally thought that going to the village market was for small profits but quick turnover.
Let those who buy it back have something good to eat.
The most important thing is to build a good reputation.
Shen Yueyao even thought about making a stall flag and putting it up so that everyone would know it was her stall at a glance.
Most of the villagers are illiterate and may not know how to write. She thought that she could get a piece of cloth and draw a distinctive pattern on it to make it easier for everyone to recognize it.
In fact, it doesn’t matter even if she can’t recognize it, because Shen Yueyao is confident in her braised food and chili meat sauce.
It will take a short time for everyone to make something with the same taste.
Those who can eat spicy food can buy chili meat sauce, while those who can't eat spicy food can buy braised food.
"My dear, your chili meat sauce tastes good, but it's too spicy. I can't eat it even if I want to. Can you make it without chili next time? That way we can have some."
"Yeah, that way we can buy more."
Many people look at the chili meat sauce with envy, but after tasting it, they find it too spicy.
In fact, the taste is not very spicy, but some people have a light taste and cannot eat any spicy food.
Shen Yueyao hadn't thought of this.
As the sun rises, more people come to the market, making it more lively. With more people, everyone comes up with some ideas.
Shen Yueyao only then thought of this. Maybe she could make some meat sauce without chili peppers so that the children could eat more.
Maybe then sales will go up.
