After arriving in town, the two went directly to the market.
Today happens to be a big market day, and it is very lively with people coming and going.
Chen Wang and his companion finally found an empty seat, which was in a relatively remote place.
Fortunately, there are enough people in the market, and as long as the goods are good, they will always attract customers.
"Let's separate them today. I brought the half roe deer meat and some rabbit meat. You can help me sell them over there. I will just sell fish here."
Chen Wang looked at Chen Dazhuang and suggested.
"sure!"
Chen Dazhuang agreed with a smile.
Chen Wang handed over the sack containing roe deer meat and rabbit meat.
The two men busied themselves opening the sacks and then started shouting loudly.
"Come on, come on, beautiful ladies and handsome guys passing by, take a look, fresh fish are for sale at a low price."
"Roe deer and rabbit meat are on sale at a low price, come and take a look!"
Having sold goods many times, Chen Dazhuang has become thick-skinned and no longer blushes after shouting like he did at the beginning.
The two of them had loud voices, which immediately attracted a few customers.
"Hey, there are a lot of fish here. They are quite fresh."
A middle-aged woman looked at the fish in Chen Wang's sack and made a comment.
"Of course. It was still in the tank half an hour ago. Please take a look. You are the first customer. If you want it, I will give you a 20% discount."
Chen Wang said with a smile.
"real?"
The woman's eyes lit up.
“More real than real gold.”
Chen Wang smiled and nodded.
"Then I really have to buy some. How do I sell it?"
"One dollar per pound, you can pick any fish you want!"
"Sure, sure. They're pretty cheap. Give me two crucian carps. I'll go back and make soup. Please pick out the bigger ones for me."
"no problem."
Chen Wang readily agreed, quickly picked out two crucian carps from the sack, tied them with a rope and hung them on the hook.
"One pound and three ounces, one dollar and three cents. I'll give you 20% off. I don't want the change. Sister, just give me one dollar."
"Well, you are honest young man."
The woman praised him with a smile and took out a dollar and handed it to him.
“Thank you for your patronage!”
Chen Wang took the money and put it in his pocket.
"What are you selling here? Together?"
The woman looked at Chen Dazhuang and asked.
"Ah? Yes, yes!"
Chen Dazhuang reacted and nodded repeatedly.
"We are from the same village. They also have my goods, hare meat and roe deer meat, which I hunted in the mountains myself. They are guaranteed to be good stuff."
Chen Wang took over the conversation.
The woman became even more interested after hearing this and walked over to look at the goods in the sack.
"Brother Zhuang, if this sister wants anything, give her a 20% discount."
Chen Wang said with a smile.
"no problem."
Chen Dazhuang quickly agreed with a smile.
"How embarrassing!"
The woman said this with a big smile on her face, and then asked Chen Dazhuang for the price.
"Roe deer meat is 3 yuan per pound. As for the wild rabbit meat, you can give 3 yuan per piece. Pick the big ones."
Chen Dazhuang answered with a smile.
"A lot of that wild rabbit meat was processed by my wife, smoked, dried, and salted. You won't regret it if you buy some and try it."
Chen Wang added.
The woman nodded and said, "Then give me two pounds of roe deer meat, and pick me a wild rabbit, the biggest one."
"Okay!"
Chen Dazhuang responded and helped cut the meat with nimble hands and feet.
"Boss, I want to buy your fish too. Can you give me a discount too?"
"And me, and me, I want a grass carp, a bigger one too."
The two customers were talking to each other.
"Sorry, sorry, you are our first customer, so we want to have a good start. If we give everyone a discount, we will lose money. But don't worry, we will definitely give you some discounts."
Chen Wang said with a smile.
After hearing this, the two did not feel uncomfortable, so they walked forward and started picking fish.
"Boss, you put it in a sack, it's hard for us to choose!"
"Yeah, we can't even see the fish below, and they'll be crushed."
"Wait a moment."
Chen Wang also reacted, looked around, then quickly walked to a stall not far away and bought two cardboard boxes from the stall owner for fifty cents.
After opening the two cardboard boxes, place them on the ground. Then pour out all the fish in the sacks and arrange them according to size and category.
In this way, it looks much more pleasing to the eye and is also convenient for customers to choose.
"That's great. Give me this big grass carp."
"Okay!"
Chen Wang picked up the grass carp, strung it together with a rope, and then weighed it, while still shouting.
"Come and have a look, fresh fish are sold at a cheap price of one yuan per pound. We have carp, grass carp, crucian carp, and black carp!"
Soon, more and more customers gathered around.
Chen Wang was very busy here, and Chen Dazhuang next door was also doing good business. Whenever he had some free time, he would help Chen Wang.
These days, in inland areas, few people bring fish to the market to sell.
The main reason is the inconvenience of transportation. Fresh goods such as fish and shrimp can easily be lost on the road.
Just like the two bags of fish that Chen Wang brought, even though they were only about half an hour old, they were basically all dead, but they were still very fresh.
The meat that ordinary people eat on a daily basis is basically chicken, duck and pork. Unless someone in the family is good at fishing, fish is rarely seen on the table.
Therefore, after Chen Wang displayed this pile of fish, it was very eye-catching and easy to sell.
