When they returned home, Grandpa Meng was in the yard, showing off his thermos to his two old friends: "Not bad, isn't it? My granddaughter-in-law gave it to me. She said I should drink more hot water when it's cold. With this cup, I can always have hot water when I go out for a walk."
"This is really good, Lao Meng. Go back and ask Meng Xiao's wife if she still has this cup. I'll buy one."
"If there is one, I want one too. The last time I tasted that sauce, I kept thinking about it for days. Your granddaughter-in-law is really nice. Old Meng, you must ask for us this time."
Old Master Lin became even more depressed. He hadn't even put the sauce in his mouth yet, and now there was a thermos cup that made him itchy.
Meng Xiao was standing at the door holding Shen Qingli's hand when he heard Shen Qingli lower his voice and asked, "Can you sell it?"
"Go in first."
"Grandpa. We're back." Meng Xiao took Shen Qingli's hand and walked into the yard.
"Qingqing, this is Grandpa Lin, and this is Grandpa Wu." Meng Xiao introduced to Shen Qingli.
Shen Qingli nodded and smiled: "Hello, Grandpa Lin, hello, Grandpa Wu."
"Oh, good,"
Old Man Lin signaled Old Man Wu to speak with his eyes, but Old Man Wu didn't know what to say.
He said dryly, "Meng Xiao, your grandfather's cup is nice." What else could he say? He had never asked for anything from a junior!
Grandpa Meng laughed heartily, completely disrespecting his old friend. "Let me tell you, Xiaoge'er, Qingqing, these two old men are interested in my thermos and beef sauce and want to know if they can buy them."
"Yes, yes. I'm old and my appetite is poor. Old Meng said it's good for eating."
Mr. Lin said quickly.
Shen Qingli smiled as he looked at the elderly people. "I'm very happy that you grandfathers like what I make. I happen to have two bottles of sauce left, but I have to wait until I return to visit my parents tomorrow. You don't need any money. Just consider it a small token of my gratitude. I don't know if I still have any thermoses left. I have to go back and ask my mom. If you two grandfathers want one."
Shen Qingli has his own considerations, and the thermos cup business can actually be done.
It's not some complicated technology, and in a few years it will become popular in China, and then it won't be rare anymore. But showing off too many at once would draw too much attention.
You can also make chili sauce. Since you have a lot of free time, it’s not difficult to make some.
Although I was a little disappointed that there was no thermos, I didn't refuse it outright. Besides, there was still sauce even if there was no cup.
"We can't take your sauce for free. If you don't want money, then I won't take it either." Old Master Lin felt that he was in his sixties and how could he take a child's things for free.
Meng Xiao spoke up at this point, "These two bottles are really free. You can pay for them if you want them again. If you're really embarrassed, please help my wife sell a few more bottles. If anyone in the compound asks, just say you bought them for eight yuan a bottle."
"Okay, okay." The two old men agreed, but they were thinking in their hearts that they had to bring money when they came to get the sauce tomorrow, so as not to let the children suffer losses.
In fact, most people of this era are very simple
