Chapter 28 Who asked you to sell here?
Not long after, the person she was waiting for appeared.
I saw a woman in her 30s walking towards the food area, followed by four young men, two of whom were carrying a large flat basket covered with a small white quilt.
A faint smell of tzaozi cake wafted out.
Nowadays, there are actually very few choices of pastries, and caozi cakes definitely account for the majority of the market. Other snacks are either local specialties or very high-end biscuits packaged in iron boxes.
As the New Year is approaching, the best gifts are still caozi cake and canned food.
The woman went straight to the pastry counter and said to the seller inside, "Hey, today's goods have arrived."
The 40-something pastry saleswoman pinched her eyelids and said, "It's here, I'm not blind, I can see it!"
The woman who delivered the pastries also rolled her eyes immediately, but judging by the atmosphere between the two, it seemed that they were used to it and it wasn't yet up to the standard to start a fight.
"Take out the scale and weigh it!" said the woman.
"Don't I know how to use the scale? Why are you rushing me?" The salesperson slowly took out a larger scale.
Two young men put the cakes on the basket, a large basket weighing 20 kilograms.
The salesperson wrote a receipt and threw it to the other party, rolled his eyes at her and snorted:
"Your trough cake is getting worse and worse. Compared with the majestic cake, it should be thrown away!"
Although she was dissatisfied with her attitude, the delivery woman subconsciously asked, "What kind of majestic cake?"
The saleswoman felt a little regretful after she finished saying this. Wouldn’t this cause trouble for Cheng Hui? She looked at Cheng Hui with some apology.
Cheng Hui first looked at her reassuringly, smiled at her, and then came over with the plate.
"Hello, I'm Xiao Cheng, from A County Food Factory. You are from the provincial capital food factory, right? This is the new Weifeng cake developed by our factory, you should try it." Cheng Hui handed her a toothpick.
She had a good attitude. Although the other party had a sullen face, he took the toothpick, tasted it, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
I have to admit, it’s really delicious, much better than their caozi cakes.
But the woman just hummed modestly and asked, "Are you from the A County Food Factory? When did you come up with this? How come we don't know about such a big thing?"
All food factories are in the same system, with each level dominating the other. Of course, there is not much relationship across cities, and there is no relationship across provinces.
A County is close to the provincial capital. The director and deputy director of A County Food Factory would go to their factory to cry poor and beg for alms whenever they had nothing to do, in order to learn their biscuit making technology.
So they secretly developed new technology on their own but kept it secret? This is simply outrageous!
Cheng Hui said nervously with a confused look on her face: "I don't know anything..."
As soon as the woman saw her age and belly, she knew that she was just a little girl and it was useless to say anything to her.
She immediately walked back angrily, and after two steps, she turned back and frowned, saying, "Give me this plate. I'll take it back and let our factory leaders taste it."
Cheng Hui immediately held the plate and said, "That won't do. This is a sample and there are people watching me. If I don't give it to 100 people but give it to someone specifically, I will be punished."
After saying that, he glanced at Old Xie.
Old Xie was just walking nearby. When he heard this, he stood there, looking at Cheng Hui and the woman with a serious look.
His aura was different from the ones Cheng Hui had seen before.
Before, he was like a strange old man who was silent, taciturn, and difficult to get along with.
Now, he is so majestic and has the domineering aura of a superior!
Cheng Hui was stunned for a moment.
The woman felt a little guilty when she was looked at by Lao Xie, so she believed what she said and turned away.
Cheng Hui called out from behind her, "Comrade, take care. Although I can't give you a cake, you can buy one. It's sold at the door, half price, 50 cents each! The promotion is only for three days, tomorrow is the last day! If you don't buy it, it will be gone!"
Her voice was quite loud, and not only the woman heard it, but everyone else heard it too.
When they heard that something was on sale at half price and would be out of stock tomorrow, they immediately rushed over to see what it was.
The woman was squeezed and frightened to the point of falling down.
She was surprised and asked, "How much do you think it is? How big is it? Is it bigger than a loaf of bread?"
Black bread is also a local specialty food. It is a large loaf of bread that came from the Soviet Union. Now one is as big as an electric rice cooker and very heavy.
Cheng Hui raised her hand and made a fist, saying with a smile, "It's as big as the trough cake."
The woman was stunned.
When I looked back, Aunt Qiao's stall was already surrounded by people.
Not all of them are buyers, most of them are just here to watch the fun.
But the people outside didn't know this. They thought the cake was so popular that it had to be snatched away. They found out that it was 50 cents each. Although it was a bit expensive, 50 cents was still affordable, so they bought one to try.
All the things that were stolen were good things!
The people behind him held up their money and shouted, "Give me one! Give me one!"
Aunt Qiao took the money with one hand and the goods with the other, shouting, "Old Xie, Old Chen! Come and see the stall!"
Cheng Hui turned her head and found that Old Xie was gone. She looked towards the stall again and found that he had somehow gotten in and was standing next to Aunt Qiao.
Chen Laoshi was still outside the circle, scratching his head anxiously.
Old Xie's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and several people who had evil intentions immediately withdrew their hands.
Cheng Hui thought to herself, this is a person with a story, and now that she has met her...the story can never be finished!
She would have a heart-to-heart talk with this old man later.
The delivery woman was stunned by the hot sales scene.
But thinking about the taste she just tasted, it was understandable that she had never eaten such delicious snacks.
"No more! No more big bags!" Aunt Qiao shouted loudly, "There are only single bags left, and there are about 20 of them. Hurry up and sell them out. We will go home and you will have to wait until tomorrow. Tomorrow is the last day!"
In fact, there is still more than half a basket left, more than 50.
She knows sales.
"Give me one! Give me one!"
The stalls instantly became more crowded and the scene became more lively.
When the woman heard this, she squeezed in with gritted teeth.
She finally grabbed one, thanks to Old Xie who helped her by snatching it from Aunt Qiao and putting it in her hand.
After doing all this, he looked at Cheng Hui through the gap in the crowd.
Cheng Hui was standing on the steps. When she saw what he had just done, she immediately gave him a thumbs up!
Yes, that’s right, the fish she wants to catch today is this woman! It would be best if she could take one back to the leader of the provincial food factory!
Old Xie smiled, but it was fleeting.
"No more! Really no more this time! Everyone wait until tomorrow." Aunt Qiao shouted, "And tomorrow's supply will be limited! This is a promotion, selling at half price. If you want to buy after tomorrow, it will be one dollar each, not a penny less!"
When everyone heard this, they decided to come earlier tomorrow!
Some children who came late burst into tears.
The woman found Cheng Hui holding the bag that was slightly flattened.
With a stern expression, he said, "Where is your sales point? Who told you to sell here? This is our territory!"
