This is the first time Hu Lin has come here since the construction of the county town.
The ground has been paved with cement, and the number of brick and tile buildings has increased significantly.
The past scenes of mud all over the sky will only exist in people’s memories.
The embryonic form of urbanization.
Hu Lin breathed in the air which was obviously much less dusty and walked towards the alley.
The alley is quiet and there are not many people. The houses are sparsely populated and every house has a yard.
Hu Lin knocked on a house's wooden door.
"Knock knock knock"
After knocking a few times, no one came to open the door, so Hu Lin knocked a few more times.
After waiting for a while, no one came, and Hu Lin frowned slightly.
Why do I feel like I'm starting off badly?
With this thought in mind, Hu Lin went to knock on other people's doors. He knocked on several doors in a row, but no one opened the door.
Unconvinced, she knocked on several doors in succession. At the end, she knocked on the door and shouted, "Is anyone there?"
After visiting several families, I finally knocked on the door of a family.
When Hu Lin saw this, an indescribable joy surged in his heart.
The person who opened the door was an old lady. The door was not open very wide, just enough for half of her body to fit in, making it difficult to see what was going on in the room.
"What?"
The old lady stared at Hu Lin warily.
Hu Lin smiled amiably, took a step forward, and asked stealthily, "Grandma, do you want to buy some cooked food made from wild game?"
As he spoke, Hu Lin lifted the lids of some baskets.
The aroma of meat wafted out, attracting the old lady's full attention.
When Hu Lin saw the old lady swallowing, he knew that the deal would be successful.
Without waiting for the old lady to speak, Hu Lin raised the basket towards her and said, "Grandma, have a taste.
Our food is delicious and cheap, only one dollar for half a pound.
It can be eaten hot or cold. If you don’t like cold food, you can buy some and heat it up before serving it on the table.”
The old lady's expression flickered. "You won't blackmail me for money after eating it, will you?"
Hu Lin was a little surprised, but still smiled, "How could it be?"
As soon as Hu Lin finished speaking, the old lady quickly reached into the vegetable bowl in the basket, took out a piece of meat, put it in her mouth, and chewed it with satisfaction.
Hu Lin's mouth twitched when he saw this.
Why are you so impatient?
Can't you see the chopsticks stuck in the vegetable bowl?
There are so many bacteria on my hands, and they've been scratched on the door, they're so dirty.
Hu Lin had never done such a small business, but he knew that this was not the time to worry about these details.
She looked up at the old lady who was swallowing her saliva and staring at the rabbit meat in the vegetable bowl.
"Granny, do you want to buy half a pound to try it out, or a full pound to have enough?"
As for Li Aihua's skills, she was impeccable.
The game with the addition of brown sugar has a fresher texture and a fragrant taste with a hint of sweetness that you will never get tired of. It makes people want to eat more.
"No." The old lady refused quickly.
"Hmm?" Hu Lin's smile froze.
The already faint smile in his eyes suddenly disappeared.
She stopped smiling and looked at the old lady.
The old woman's eyes were still on her basket.
It's not about the meat.
"Why?" Too expensive? Not really.
The food in state-owned restaurants is so expensive that I don’t even know if a serving of meat weighs half a pound.
For the trial sale, she did not raise the price, but just made it a few cents higher than the price of meat.
Moreover, the meat will shrink after being cooked.
The price she set was absolutely appropriate and affordable for people in the county town.
"There's no need to ask so many whys." While the old lady was speaking, her eyes seemed to be welded to her basket.
Seeing the old lady's impolite tone, Hu Lin closed the lid with his hand.
The old lady's vision was blocked, so she reluctantly moved the basket away and looked at the doll in front of her that was as tall as her waist.
When Hu Lin was about to leave, the old lady stopped her and said, "Girl, I didn't taste anything just now.
Or you can divide the milk into half a pound and wait for the family members to come back from get off work and let them taste it.
If you like them all, I will buy them all for you next time you come."
Hu Lin curled the corner of his mouth sarcastically after listening to this. He didn't want to pay attention to this kind of whimsical person who was trying to trick children, so he walked forward.
When the old lady saw the man leave, she felt unwilling and angry.
She opened the door and stepped out. "If you don't give me half of my meat today, I will take you to the police and sue you for speculation. You will be put in jail."
Hu Lin stopped, turned around and looked at the old lady who thought she could control her like this, and asked coldly: "Do you have any evidence?"
People are evil. People are evil! When deception failed, they threatened.
"Isn't the meat on your hand the evidence?"
The old lady looked confident of victory.
"If you give me half of the meat, I won't take you to the police.
I tell you, those policemen are very fierce, unlike me, they will beat people."
As he said this, he did not forget to scare Hu Lin.
"Do you think I'm a kid who looks easy to fool?
Aren't you going to sue me? Let's go to the police station.
We don't have any substantial transaction, and I haven't sold any money yet.
It depends on whether the police believe you, I am being detained for speculation, or you are being detained for slandering others and insulting the police. "
Hu Lin was a little annoyed.
She had felt that her master was at a disadvantage before, and now it happened.
"You think I'm afraid of you? You're just speculating. Go ahead, who's afraid of who?"
The old lady was stubborn and would rather lose the battle than the opponent.
"Then go ahead."
As Hu Lin spoke, he took two steps towards the old lady, apparently trying to leave the alley.
The old lady noticed that Hu Lin was not afraid at all and began to back off.
