Chapter 478: The First Imperial Merchant in the World (14)



Finally meeting an old customer, Yao Niang almost cried with joy.

She quickly straightened her clothes and replied to the customer:

"My sister handed the stall over to me. She has other things to do. From now on, I will be on my own."

"I see. Okay, give me a pound first."

Yao Niang smiled happily: "Okay!"

He immediately and skillfully weighed out a pound of braised dishes for the person.

After thinking about it, he imitated Xin Guoguo's previous behavior and added another small spoonful after the other party paid.

The customer took his own stewed dish and said with a smile:

"You two sisters are both equally honest in your business dealings. Okay, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be leaving now."

"Take care! Come back next time!"

Yao Niang watched the man leave with a smile on her face.

Next, more and more people gathered in front of her stall.

Most of them are old customers.

Seeing her busying herself, she would always ask why her sister didn't come.

Yao Niang also answered them one by one.

Seeing that she was busy over there, Liangzi went over to help since he was free anyway.

With Liangzi's help, Yao Niang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After finally sending this wave of guests away, Yao Niang finally breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Liang Zi:

"Brother Liangzi, thank you. If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't be able to handle anything right now!"

Liangzi smiled innocently: "It doesn't matter. I have nothing to do anyway."

Yao Niang was stunned for a moment, then she noticed that the backpack that Liangzi brought was still full of melon seeds, and she hadn't even touched it.

Seeing Yao Niang noticed, Liangzi scratched his head a little embarrassedly:

"These melon seeds don't seem to be selling well."

Yao Niang shook her head, thinking of Xin Guoguo's instructions before she left the house this morning:

"Brother Liangzi is honest and simple-minded, and may not be very good at selling things. If you have free time, please help take care of him."

Yao Niang is also very grateful that Brother Liangzi is here.

After all, she is a woman and can't even tie a chicken.

If Brother Liangzi hadn’t been there to calm things down, who knows what would have happened!

Yao Niang looked at the braised dishes she brought with her, and there were not many left.

She simply carried the backpack and moved towards Liangzi:

"Brother Liangzi, your melon seeds are really delicious. My sister-in-law's cooking skills are definitely not bad. How about I grab a handful of melon seeds and let everyone try them?"

Although Liangzi was confused, he didn't quite understand Yao Niang's intention.

But he also knew that Yao Niang was thinking about him, so he nodded: "Eat it. It's just some melon seeds, not worth much."

In the past, if there were any leftover melon seeds at home, they would be distributed to the villagers.

It doesn’t matter who you give it to, it will eat it.

Yao Niang:……

It's really rare to see someone so wealthy and powerful!

Thinking about this, I couldn't help but think of what Xin Guoguo had sighed before:

"Mrs. Liang is really magnanimous."

Yao Niang also wants to say at this moment that Sister Liang is really amazing!

Brother Liangzi looks like a simpleton, a fool, and is very easy to be deceived.

I had never heard of it. It was rare that Sister Liang had a quarrel with Brother Liang because of this.

However, she didn't say anything, just silently grabbed a handful of melon seeds and called out to passers-by:

"Auntie, come and take a look at my melon seeds. They're free to try."

"Sister-in-law, come and take a look at my melon seeds. They're free to taste."

"Brother, come and take a look at my melon seeds. They're free to try."

The phrase "free tasting" immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Many people also came over and asked, "Little girl, is it really free to try?"

Yao Niang's eyes curved, looking gentle and kind: "Yes! Free tasting! Uncle, do you want to try it?"

The uncle's eyes lit up: "Then grab me a handful."

Yao Niang smiled and said, "Uncle, here, it's for you!"

As he spoke, he grabbed a few melon seeds and put them into the uncle's hand.

The uncle didn't mind and just grabbed it and ate it.

After finishing the meal, he didn't forget to comment: "Well, these sunflower seeds taste good. How much are they?"

Yao Niang stopped talking and turned to look at Liangzi.

Liangzi was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, "Ten... ten coins a pound."

After saying this, his head drooped.

The melon seeds on the market are sold at five or six cents per pound, and some more expensive ones are only sold at seven or eight cents.

After his mother confirmed the price yesterday, he felt that it was a bit expensive and wondered if no one would buy it.

Unexpectedly, his mother said:

"If no one buys it, bring it back! I feel like I'm losing out on even ten cents!"

These melon seeds were picked out one by one by my eldest daughter-in-law with great effort. After drying them, they were rubbed and washed until the pumpkin pulp on them was completely clean. They were then cooked and fried with various ingredients.

The effort alone costs more than ten cents!

What Liangzi didn't expect was that the uncle thought about it and nodded:

"Okay, give me two pounds!"

Liangzi hadn't expected to sell it in the first place, so he just lowered his head.

Yao Niang was weighing someone with a smile, and when she turned around, she saw Liangzi looking dazed.

I quickly pushed him and said, "Brother Liangzi, collect the money!"

Liangzi suddenly came back to his senses, said "Oh", and reached out to take the money.

The twenty copper coins were in his hand, and the heavy feeling made him feel a little unreal.

Two days' wages, and he got it already?

Yao Niang still added a handful of the food before handing it over.

With the start, the people who were watching just now also came over.

Some people just try it and leave.

Some people place an order immediately after tasting it.

Liangzi was no longer confused.
