Chapter 39 Duck Goods Sell to Repeat Customers
Lu Xiang has already sold many repeat customers, especially those who missed out on buying duck necks the last few times they came. They rush to buy them when they see her stall. The more duck necks you buy, the better the deal. You get one free if you buy five. Many people also come to the stall to buy duck necks.
Buy three for the price of two and a half.
Duck heads and duck intestines are new products and don’t sell as well as duck wings and duck necks.
Lu Xiangke is good at business. She went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a new knife. If anyone is curious about the duck intestines, she will cut a small piece for them to try. The duck intestines are chewy and very tasty. After taking a bite, you will want to drink some wine to moisten it up immediately. It is so delicious.
"How do I buy duck intestines?" a customer asked.
Lu Xiang smiled and said, "Two cents for a small bundle." It was about one tael. Cut it up, and it would be enough for one person. It wouldn't be enough for two people.
Duck intestines are not expensive, but they are too difficult to clean up.
"Give me a bundle."
Some people start buying, and others follow suit.
The other vendors around them were all staring in amazement. Normally, these customers would break even a dime into several pieces and bargain hard. Even after bargaining, they'd still ask for free cilantro, garlic juice, and other such items. They simply couldn't afford to be shortchanged.
Why are people so generous when buying duck products now? Some buy bags and go home to drink, while others just squat in a corner, hold the duck and start to nibble on it with relish. Looking at them eating, the stall owners selling goods nearby are all envious.
The aroma of Lu Xiang is so tempting that you will never forget it once you have tasted it.
Lu Zhaodi also took the opportunity to greet the vegetable seller Tuanzi.
There were only five vegetable dumplings in total, and the stall owner next to them laughed. Who would be so stingy as to sell such a small amount of food?
He didn't have any serious goods to sell, just a lunch box.
There are regular customers around here, so no one is shouting.
Then I heard Lu Zhaodi shouting loudly beside me. She was not at all nervous and was greeting Lu Xiang's guests.
She was a girl of seventeen or eighteen, and everyone was embarrassed to buy things there.
Lu Zhaodi had come out hungry, and now she was hungry too. Her feet were blistered and painful! It was midday, and the sun was blazing. Soon, she was almost tanned. Seeing Lu Xiang wearing a straw hat, she felt so angry that she didn't know who to vent her anger on! She walked to the side, picked up the vegetable dumplings she had made, and started to eat them.
Lu Zhaodi could cook, and her home cooking was pretty good. But these multi-grain dumplings were a bit unpalatable. They were dry, choking, and rough. Her grandmother kept a close eye on everything at home, and she hadn't even added any oil.
The smell of braised duck in the air made my mouth water. I looked at Lu Xiang again and again. After all, she was a relative, so why didn't she give her a duck neck to chew on?
If Lu Zhaodi had never eaten it before, he would not be greedy, but since he was reborn, he had a good life in his previous life, with all kinds of meat and fish, and he was so powerful in his previous life, but now he was eating vegetable dumplings in the market. He felt so unbalanced.
The vegetable dumpling was so hard to swallow that Lu Zhaodi straightened her neck before finally managing to get the last bite down. While whole grains were incredibly hard to eat, they had one advantage: they could help with hunger.
Even someone with a small appetite like Lu Zhaodi can eat two steamed buns, but can only eat one vegetable dumpling at most.
After Lu Zhaodi finished eating, two men came over and wanted to buy from her. They looked okay, but their eyes were frivolous. They stared at Lu Zhaodi's chest several times. "How much?"
"One cent each!" She wasn't selling them cheap. They were pure wild vegetables, and the auntie next door only sold them for eight cents. But the two of them said, "Only four? Buy them all." They spent a total of 40 cents, and they spoke with great pride.
They also wanted to go to Lu Xiang to show their good will, but Lu Xiang's products were not cheap, and many items cost more than one yuan or two yuan. These two men were usually idle, but they had limited money. So they set their sights on Lu Zhaodi.
Lu Zhaodi was almost disgusted by the look in their eyes and wished she could dig out their eyes. If she were dating Li Yucai, she wouldn't care about even four or forty dollars, let alone four cents.
But now it was impossible. If she didn't sell it, she wouldn't even have the money to go back. Her feet were already hurting so much that she was afraid she would die if she walked back. So she had to bear it and sell it to them.
As a result, when they were eating steamed bread, the man touched her hand, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Another person, still standing next to Lu Zhaodi, asked, "Did you do all this by yourself? Will you come tomorrow?"
A bit close.
Lu Zhaodi said, "I'll come again tomorrow."
In public, these two idle hooligans dared not do anything!
I left after buying it. Before leaving, I wanted to come to Lu Xiang to buy some duck necks to take home and eat, but Lu Xiang’s duck necks were so popular that they had been sold out long ago.
Lu Zhaodi watched coldly. In just a short while, she had already collected more than ten yuan. How much did she earn in total?
Lu Zhaodi had sold all her things and was suffering from the sun. She didn't want to stay here any longer! She got on an ox cart and asked someone to take her back to the village for ten cents.
She only had three cents left, and she wouldn't give a cent when she got home. What would she do when she was out without money? She got angry thinking about her grandmother guarding her house like she was guarding against thieves.
Speaking of thieves, she thought of something: her grandmother liked to sew a pocket on her pants and put her money in it. She had to find a way to get her grandmother's money. At worst, she could just borrow it.
Thinking about the money, she had to think carefully about how to get it, and had no time to care about Lu Xiang.
But Lu Xiang was over there, and she was sold out of duck necks and duck wings! There were only about a dozen duck intestines in total. They were all sold together! If someone bought duck necks and wanted to give them something else as a gift, Lu Xiang would give them something else in exchange.
I spent the same amount of money and tried something else. Now all I have left are duck feet, duck heads and a few duck wings.
This time, Li Yucai's good friends brought him here. They had work during the day, so they could only rush over during their lunch break. They kept complaining about it all the way, worried that it wouldn't sell out.
After coming over, he was relieved to see Lu Xiang. He asked, "Do you have duck neck?"
Lu Xiang replied: "No!"
"So what?"
Lu Xiang opened the lid, and their mouths watered at the aroma. "Two of each!"
The people around hurriedly said, "Who can eat two of them?"
Li Yucai said, "I want five duck feet, five duck heads, and all these duck wings! Calculate how much they cost."
Lu Xiang quickly calculated and said, "Three dollars and three cents, just give me three dollars!" Then she added a duck head as a bonus.
Before Li Yucai could make a move, the others quickly took out their money and said, "I'll do it, I'll do it." These people all had money, so how could they let him pay alone?
So Lu Xiang accepted the money from one of the men. After buying this portion, there wasn't much left: over ten duck heads and less than ten chicken feet! Even if she couldn't sell all of it, she could take it back and give it to the Fu family to eat. It wouldn't be a waste.
Li Yucai didn't leave after selling the ducks. He wanted to talk to Lu Xiang.
