Chapter 85: Money Making Team (Part 3)
Listening to Linghua's childish words, Xia Daohua secretly wiped away a drop of cold sweat: "Hehe, it's actually nothing, just prepare it in several times and in different places slowly!"
Xia Daohua spoke vaguely and got away with it.
The stall set up by a few little kids was opened for business not long after.
As for Xia Daohua, the time traveler, I can’t say that she has any other advantages, but her thick skin is still quite noticeable.
She observed the hawking at other stalls for a while and designed a few lines of her own:
"Bamboo tube rice, bamboo tube rice, bamboo tube rice is fragrant and sweet. After eating my bamboo tube rice, adults and children will smile happily. Oh my, smile happily!"
In fact, it is an adaptation of the tune of "Selling Tangyuan".
After singing a few lines, he shouted:
"Bamboo tube rice! Fragrant and sweet bamboo tube rice! Fragrant white rice! Only two copper coins!"
Lihua and Goro began to listen to Xia Daohua's singing, feeling both amused and shy. Later, they found that Xia Daohua's shouting and strange tunes actually attracted some people, so they started to shout along with her.
However, Lihua and Wulang were a few years older after all, and much more shameless than Xia Daohua. They only dared to shout out: "Bamboo tube rice is on sale at a low price", and refused to say anything else.
However, the little Linghua adapted well. She quickly learned the lyrics and calls of Xia Daohua and started to shout loudly and enthusiastically.
Many people gathered around the stalls of a few little kids to see what was new.
This time and space is far from being as information-rich as in later times. For authentic southern snacks like bamboo tube rice, many people in places like Beiguan Town have only heard of it for the first time, let alone eaten it.
Seeing that there were many people gathering but only looking and not buying, Xia Daohua simply took apart a bamboo tube and gave the rice inside to Linghua.
Linghua is a natural foodie who enjoys everything she eats, let alone the already delicious bamboo tube rice.
The fragrance of bamboo and rice complemented each other and quickly drifted into the nostrils of the onlookers. Coupled with the way Linghua licked her lips and wiped her tongue, eating with extraordinarily sweet taste, it was simply the most suitable advertisement.
Immediately, a middle-aged woman holding a child took out two cents, bought a bamboo tube of rice, and gave it to the little boy in her arms.
After buying the first one, I soon got the second one.
The one hundred servings of bamboo tube rice prepared by Xia Daohua were almost sold out in less than an hour.
Xia Daohua saw that the market was about to end and decided to keep the remaining fifteen bamboo tubes for her family. In fact, if she gave enough bamboo tubes to each household, these fifteen would not be enough!
If two bamboo tube rices were sent to each room, it would be enough to share, but it would only be enough for people to have a slight taste.
However, they never expected that when the kids were packing up their stall, another customer came.
This person turned out to be a returning customer. After trying the bamboo tube rice, he found it very appetizing, so he simply turned back and bought all the remaining fifteen.
I also booked the next one with Xia Daohua:
"Will you come tomorrow? Will you come to the market next time? Bring more next time! I'll take as much as you have! I've never tasted such delicious white rice!"
Facing his enthusiasm, Xia Daohua said with a smile:
"Come! I will definitely come to the market next time! If I can't come because of something, my family will come too."
The returning customer left with great satisfaction. Lihua, Wulang, and Linghua all looked at Xia Daohua with a smile:
"Daohua, you are amazing. You are not shy at all when talking to someone like that!"
The customer just now was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a stocky build. He looked a bit fierce at first glance. In other words, he didn't look like a good person at all. The children were a little nervous, but Xia Daohua was the only one who was not afraid of him at all.
Xia Daohua said with a smile:
"He came here to buy something and gave me money last time. How can you conclude that he is a bad person just based on his appearance?"
"But isn't this what bad guys look like? Look at that Jin Yong..." Linghua's voice became lower as she spoke. Xia Daohua felt strange and looked up. Wow, it turned out that you shouldn't talk about people behind their backs!
Speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.
Linghua mentioned Jin Yong, and Jin Yong actually appeared!
However, Xia Daohua did not look at Jin Yong in a good mood.
All the suffering Xia Yujiao suffered was because of this guy.
This guy seemed to be completely unaware of the situation and was even smiling at the kids foolishly!
Linghua was trembling a little. Xia Daohua held Linghua in her arms and said in a low but firm voice in her ear:
"Linghua, don't be afraid, I will protect you!"
Jin Yong obviously heard it, and immediately stood there awkwardly, not daring to move forward.
Lihua tugged at Xia Daohua's sleeve, signaling to her that Jin Yong could hear her. She smiled at Lihua soothingly and said to Wu Lang, "Brother, we have to pack up this stall. We may need it next time!"
They use a bamboo mat to set up the stall, and on it are the containers for bamboo tube rice and small baskets made of bamboo strips. If customers like the baskets, they can buy them together.
If you don't want to pay for the basket, you can also give up the basket and take the bamboo tube directly.
Jin Yong stood there for a while, and seeing that the Xia family's children ignored him, he couldn't help it anymore. He took two steps forward and asked Xia Daohua with a lecherous look:
"Is your aunt here today?"
Xia Daohua glanced at him sideways and said, "You think you can ask my aunt?"
Jin Yong was so angry that he was about to burst into tears, but he didn't want to get angry with Xia Daohua, so he asked with all his strength:
"Why can't I ask?"
Xia Daohua stared at him calmly with her big eyes:
"Who are you? Why are you asking?
We, the Xia family, are an honest family that is getting by.
If you really want to marry my aunt, you should come to her house to propose marriage. If you don't want to marry my aunt at all, don't always come to provoke her!
You are a grown-up, why aren't you as sensible as a kid like me?
"At your age, you've lived like a dog? You don't even know what you should do and what you shouldn't do?"
"You! Why are you swearing? I won't bother with you, kid, but if you continue to speak rudely, don't blame me for being rude!"
"Hey, how can you be so rude?
In broad daylight, in front of everyone, do you really want to fight with me with your fists?
If you win, it’s because you are such a big bear, bullying a little girl like me; if you lose, it’s because you can’t even beat me, tut tut tut…”
"you!"
"Rice Flowers!" Several voices rang out in unison. Goro and the others were worried.
Xia Daohua smiled at them comfortingly:
"Don't worry, no matter how angry he is, he won't dare to hit me."
