Chapter 48 Love
The old lady was impressed at first sight; she liked to buy clean things.
Her basket was full of vegetables and she didn't bring anything else. If she bought unwrapped candy, she really wouldn't be able to take it back.
Moreover, if you wrap several pieces of candy together and leave them for a long time, they will easily stick together once they melt.
Jiang Zhiluo said, "Well, wrap each one up, it's cleaner this way."
Jiang Zhiluo had also prepared some small pieces of malt sugar in advance and placed them in a small dish, each with a toothpick stuck in it.
Jiang Zhiluo took a small piece and handed it to the old woman, saying, "Auntie, you can try it. If it tastes good, buy more."
While Jiang Zhiluo was talking to the old woman, many women and old ladies also came over.
"There really are prizes, right? Just buy something and you get a free prize?"
"Are there really prizes? Don't fool us."
"Isn't there still brown sugar?"
"How much is this malt candy? It looks different from what others sell. It has stuffing inside."
…
Everyone came over to look and asked questions.
Because the real block malt sugar is wrapped in paper.
The ones that can be tasted for free are placed on small plates so everyone can see clearly what they look like and see that there are fillings inside.
Jiang Zhiluo listened to everyone's questions and patiently explained one by one with a smile: "The malt sugar made with our exclusive secret recipe is different from other malt sugars in the market. The price is three cents for two..."
"There really are prizes. Buy ten maltose candies at once and you'll have a chance to win a prize. In other words, you only need to spend fifteen cents to have a chance to win a prize."
In fact, Jiang Zhiluo observed the morning market and knew that it would be difficult to sell out so much malt sugar quickly without some promotional activities.
Because the malt sugar she sells is really expensive, if people don’t buy it, they naturally won’t know whether the malt sugar at her stall is good or not.
Moreover, malt sugar is different from brown sugar. Brown sugar is in short supply, so many people buy it.
Maltose is not a necessity and you can buy it or not.
Many people may just want to buy one or two for their children at home to try.
But Jiang Zhiluo didn't want to have to sell these malt sugars for several days.
She just wanted to sell out quickly so she could go home early.
Fortunately, the people selling things here don’t know much about promotional methods, unlike the involutionary society in the technological age.
Moreover, some women are attracted to raffles in the hope of getting a small advantage.
Jiang Zhiluo understood that only by attracting people to the stall and gaining traffic could the products be sold well.
Moreover, Jiang Zhiluo smiled at everyone and explained patiently. In addition, her fingers were clean and the malt sugar bag was also clean, which made people feel good about her.
While she was talking, the old woman had already tasted the malt sugar.
Her expression changed and she said, "Not bad, it's fragrant and delicious, sweet but not greasy, and has a fragrance. Even I like it. Give me five yuan for that, no, ten yuan."
For the old lady, those few cents were not a big deal, just enough for a chance to win a lottery.
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and nodded, then quickly gave the old woman ten pieces of malt sugar.
The old woman gave Jiang Zhiluo fifteen coins and said, "Just put it in my vegetable basket."
Because each piece of malt sugar is packaged and very clean, you don’t have to worry about it getting dirty when putting it in the vegetable basket.
Jiang Zhiluo put it in for the old woman with a smile, then put the lottery basket aside and let the old woman draw the lottery.
Jiang Zhiluo used some supernatural powers to control the old woman and let her draw a prize with five pieces of malt candy written on it.
"Oh, there's a five painted on it."
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "Congratulations, Auntie, you won the prize. Here are five pieces of maltose. I'll give them to you."
Jiang Zhiluo knew that most people were illiterate, so she drew them on paper so that everyone could tell what they were and how many pieces they were.
"Oh, I won the prize."
The old woman's eyes widened in disbelief, and she smiled happily.
She found this feeling quite strange.
"No way, can you really win a prize?"
"I'm not lying."
"Let me see, let me see..."
“It’s true!”
"Could it be that he is looking for someone specifically?"
"How could I lie? That's Aunt Liu from our alley. We know each other. She usually buys candy and snacks for her grandson. Her grandson is very picky about food..."
The old woman was very excited. Seeing everyone around her looking at her with envy made her feel even better. She even straightened her back involuntarily when she walked.
I just like this kind of envious look.
The old woman thanked Jiang Zhiluo and went home with the malt candy she bought and the malt candy she won in the lottery.
At this time, the onlookers came to their senses.
"I can really win the prize! I'll buy ten too..."
I originally planned to buy one or two pieces to try them out, but I just bought ten pieces so that I could participate in the lottery.
"I want one too. Give me ten bucks..."
Jiang Zhiluo was very happy. She smiled as she collected copper coins, distributed malt sugar to everyone, and asked everyone to draw a lottery.
Although busy, everything is arranged in an orderly manner.
Of course there are also discordant voices.
"Your malt sugar is really expensive. Other stalls sell it for one penny each, but yours is only three pennies for two."
"And they said they were giving me a free sample, but there was only a tiny amount, and I couldn't taste anything at all."
There was a woman who looked dissatisfied and wanted to taste more for free, but didn't want to buy anything.
Jiang Zhiluo could tell something just by looking at the man's appearance.
She smiled and said, "Because the malt sugar I make at home has an exclusive secret recipe. It's delicious and appetizing, so naturally it's a little more expensive than ordinary malt sugar."
"But it doesn't matter. If you think it's not tasty or not worth it, I won't force you to buy it. It's all voluntary. You can buy it by tasting it for free. If you don't like it, you don't have to buy it."
"Buying is voluntary, and everyone has different tastes. Some may find it delicious, while others may not. I understand that."
Jiang Zhiluo seems very easy to talk to, which makes people feel that she is really nice.
They often come to the market to buy things and often go to the store to buy some things, but they have never seen such an easy-going girl.
As expected, he is young and has a good temper.
Some of the women looked at Jiang Zhiluo with pity in their eyes.
Some people think that she is about the same age as their own daughter.
Also willing to take care of her business.
"I'll give you ten bucks too."
Most people who participate in the lottery can win one or two pieces of malt candy.
Some are empty.
Only in this way can the winners feel a sense of superiority.
Some people got brown sugar and were even happier.
So Jiang Zhiluo’s malt sugar sold very quickly.
Of course, some people who set up stalls at the market saw that the business here was so good and saw so many people buying malt sugar, so they also had a herd mentality and thought that it might really be a good thing.
"Boss, I'll watch over the stall. Go buy two pieces of maltose and bring them back for the children to try."
Two pieces of malt candy cost three cents, which was the price of a string of candied haws. When they thought about how happy their children would be when they got home, they were willing to buy some to make their children happy.
