But there were too many people and I couldn’t find it for a while.
Suddenly, he felt someone bump into him.
His face changed slightly, and he subconsciously twisted his body and reached out to cover the trouser pocket where he kept the money.
Looking back, I saw a hooded figure disappearing into the crowd.
Fortunately, the money was not lost!
Touching the medicine basket and hunting rifle behind him, Chen Wang continued to look for someone.
There was no need to chase him. He was obviously a veteran and might have been committing crimes here for years. He must be much more familiar with the surroundings than he was.
If you chase after them rashly, not only will you be able to catch the person, you might also fall into a trap.
Public security is very poor these days, and thieves and robbers usually work in gangs.
Let’s find Master and Brother Dazhuang first.
After walking a little further, I heard Chen Dazhuang's shouting.
"Meat for sale! Meat for sale! Fresh wild boar meat, live bamboo shoots, delicious and inexpensive, come and have a look..."
Following the sound, I saw the stalls of Master and Chen Dazhuang, and next to them was the cart they borrowed.
There were many customers gathered in front of the stall, some had already paid for the products, while others were still waiting and watching.
Chen Wang walked over quickly.
"Please make way. Please make way."
Pushing through the crowd of onlookers and squeezing in, Chen Wang heard an old lady bargaining with Chen Dazhuang.
"I'll buy ten pounds of meat and give me a bamboo shovel, how about that?"
"This... Big sister, this really won't work. We have to buy the bamboo slips separately."
"Hey, what's the value of a bamboo slug? You must have caught them in the forest. It doesn't cost much, and you won't lose anything if you take one. Do you know how to do business?"
"Big sister..."
“What do you mean by no cost?”
Chen Wang spoke loudly, interrupting Chen Dazhuang.
The eyes of everyone around him fell on him.
"Awang!!!"
When Chen Dazhuang saw that he had finally arrived, a look of surprise immediately appeared on his face.
He is really not good at bargaining with customers!
"Who are you? What does it have to do with you?"
The middle-aged lady glared at Chen Wang angrily when she saw that her good fortune was ruined.
"I am one of the owners of this stall. We caught wild boars and bamboo shoots together."
Chen Wang answered confidently and said to the middle-aged woman, "We work so hard to hunt wild boars and catch bamboo slugs. Isn't strength a cost? Isn't time a cost? Just because of your words, I have to build a bamboo slug? That's too good to be true. If there is no cost, why don't you catch it yourself?"
"you……"
The middle-aged woman was so angry that her face turned blue. She said angrily: "Didn't I agree to buy ten kilograms of meat from you? You can make money too!"
"Sorry, I won't sell it to you!"
"You...you guys do business like this?"
“Then that’s how we do business.”
Chen Wang grinned, walked around to the back of the stall, and shouted loudly: "Don't miss it if you pass by, wild boar meat, 50 cents a pound, you won't lose money or be cheated, come quickly!"
This novel shouting voice immediately attracted the attention of a large number of customers.
"Young man, can you make the wild boar meat cheaper? Your meat is not tasty at all, you big shot!"
"Even if it doesn't taste good, it's still meat, and it's only 50 cents a pound. If you go back and think of ways to make it more delicious, you'll still be getting a bargain."
"It really can't be cheaper?"
"No, I can't. I only have so much meat. I can sell it. If I can't sell it all, I'll take it home and pickle it. Who would complain about having too much meat these days? Don't you think this makes sense?"
"Okay, okay, give me five pounds of pork belly, the fattier kind."
"Okay!"
Chen Wang responded with a smile, looked at his master and said, "Master, cut a piece of fatty pork belly, about five pounds."
Chen Jianjun nodded with a smile on his face and skillfully cut a piece of meat and weighed it.
Five pounds and two ounces.
"Just give me two dollars and a half."
Chen Wang handed the meat to the man and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, thank you!"
The man nodded repeatedly, took out money from his pocket, glanced at the still moving sack, and asked, "How much do you sell these bamboo slips for?"
"The meat of bamboo shoots is much more delicious, and the skin can also be sold for some money, 90 cents a pound, and they can only be sold whole!"
Chen Wang replied with a smile.
“It’s so expensive!”
The man looked embarrassed.
Upon seeing this, several customers nearby immediately started to make a fuss, complaining that the price was too high.
"Everyone, this is alive. It's very hard to catch, so the price is really not high. The meat of this bamboo shoot is very tender. You can buy some and stew it with some side dishes. I guarantee it will be very delicious. The New Year is coming soon, why don't you let your family have something good to eat?"
Chen Wang's two simple sentences directly attracted a group of customers.
No matter how poor life is, you must let your family eat something good during the New Year.
"Give me one!"
"I want one, too, a fatter one!"
"Don't push me, who the hell is pushing me, I farted, boss, give me one first, I'm in a hurry to go back and cook."
