However, the most popular stall at the entire market was the wheatgrass seed oil stall.
Who doesn't use oil in their household?
There was no one hawking their wares at the wheatgrass seed oil stall. When someone asked, they would just say, "Selling oil, nine cents a pound!"
No tickets required!
The oil sold on the black market is full of oil residue, and it still sells for 10.2 or 1.3 yuan!
Look how clear their oil is, though the color is a bit dark, like rapeseed oil.
What a great deal!
The word spread quickly, and soon the oil stall was packed with people, holding oil bottles and cans, crowding forward to buy oil.
Li Guoqing, Guo Yuxi, Li Xiangjie, and Zhao Xiaojun were also busy selling sweet drinks on the street!
Li Xiangdong suggested that they fill two large buckets with boiled water, add maltose and food coloring, and stir them to make one bucket of yellow and the other of green sweet water.

Next to the water stall were Ning Ruoruo, Li Zhen, Li Ping, and Li Jiabao, who ran a snack stall.

The man looked at the bowl; it was quite large and not expensive at all. Most importantly, he had earned several tens of yuan selling maltose that day, so he decided to buy it!
The man generously tossed down two cents, and the father and son each had a bowl!
After drinking the water, my stomach felt empty again. Normally, I would have gone home to eat.
But the atmosphere had been built up to this point, and a large wrap cost only two cents—a novelty we'd never tried before.
purchase!
There were also people from other cities and provinces who had come from afar. They had prepared their own dry food, but it was so dry that they couldn't swallow it. So they bought a rolled pancake to eat with it!
No one expected that the dessert stalls and snack stalls would do such a good job.
