Chapter 14 Business Opportunities
Qiao Suluo didn't have a scale at home, and buying one would cost money, so she put the konjac in bowls and sold them at five cents a bowl.
Anyway, these konjac snacks are easy to make and have very low cost. You just need to spend a few points to buy the seasoning.
The points were also exchanged for konjac, and she thought the price should be acceptable.
"Konjac is so refreshing! I've never seen this before. Is it coated with chili peppers?"
"It smells nice, but I don't know how it tastes."
"Hey, your straw weaving is really beautiful. Are you selling it?"
Qiao Su Luo said, "I don't sell straw braids, but if you buy a bowl of konjac, you'll get a free straw braid. Quantities are limited, first come, first served..."
As Qiao Su Luo spoke, she used a clean gauze to pick up a piece of konjac cake and handed it to the woman in the front row, saying, "Big sister, you can try it first. It's guaranteed to be spicy and delicious. My konjac cake is made with a secret family recipe passed down from generation to generation. It's absolutely unique and I guarantee it's a taste you've never had before."
Qiao Su Luo was still very confident in her cooking skills and greeted everyone with a smile.
The woman saw that Qiao Su Luo's fingers were clean and she used clean gauze to hold things. She thought it looked very good, so she reached out and took a piece and put it in her mouth to taste it.
She was originally picky, but when she actually put it in her mouth she realized how delicious it was.
The strong spicy aroma wrapped in the unique fragrance of the ingredients intertwines in the mouth, directly awakening the dormant taste buds.
When you first eat it, you feel the sharp burning sensation of the chili pepper. When you swallow it, a slight numbness passes through your throat. After it enters your stomach, the delicious spicy feeling lingers between your lips and teeth, leaving you with an endless aftertaste.
I can't help but want to eat it piece by piece.
There were other customers around looking at the woman who was the first to taste the konjac juice, wanting to hear her feedback.
But looking at her expression, everyone probably understood how delicious it was.
“It’s… so delicious.”
The woman showed an intoxicated look and said directly and generously: "Give me one bowl, no, one bowl is too little, give me three bowls."
Seeing the woman's reaction, Qiao Su Luo breathed a sigh of relief. It meant that the konjac soup must taste good, otherwise this well-dressed woman would not have bought three bowls at once.
"I'll give you fifteen cents."
Qiao Su Luo took the copper coins and looked at the fifteen coins in her hand, she was very excited. This was the first pot of gold she earned in the Beast World Continent. She now had copper coins in her hand and was no longer penniless.
When Qiao Su Luo looked at the woman, her eyes sparkled and she smiled brightly. "Okay, here are three bowls. I'll wrap them in oil paper for you. You're welcome to come again next time."
At this moment, Qiao Su Luo felt full of energy and motivation.
The woman's eyes no longer looked critical when she looked at Qiao Su Luo, but rather satisfied. "No wonder you, a female beast, have two handsome beast husbands. It turns out you have a unique skill."
Qiao Su Luo smiled awkwardly. This was such a beautiful misunderstanding.
At this time, Que Hongjin and Bai Qianluo were still in shock. They just stood there watching quietly, unable to help at all.
I didn't expect that Qiao Su Luo could talk, greet and do business with everyone so naturally, and the things actually sold.
It's incredible. If they were asked to shout like this on the street, they would be too shy to do it.
"By the way, I have three straw weavings for you. I made them myself. You can hang them on the wall as decorations."
"That's quite novel. I didn't expect that a female beast like you is so skillful and has a very pleasant personality. Will you set up a stall here tomorrow?"
Qiao Su Luo nodded and said, "Yes, I've been setting up a stall here these days."
The woman nodded, took her things and left.
The few orcs who were hesitant at the back also wanted to taste it, but this thing did smell good.
Qiao Su Luo also asked everyone to try it. Anyone who tried it would buy it. One bowl was considered a small amount, and some would buy five bowls directly. She said that she had many husbands at home, so she took it back to let them try it together. If the amount was less, it would not be enough.
Qiao Su Luo also gave everyone straw weaving gifts.
However, there were not many straw-woven ones, so the people who bought them later didn’t have any. When some people saw the dolls next to them, they were amazed and said, “Oh, yours is beautiful. You don’t have any straw-woven ones, so give me this one as a gift.”
Qiao Su Luo explained, "This doll takes a lot of effort to make, so it can't be given away as a gift."
The customer said regretfully, "Oh, I need to buy it. How much is it if I buy it?"
"Twenty cents each. Look, how cute! Take it home and give it to your children. They will definitely like it."
When the man heard the twenty coins, he frowned and said, "That's too expensive. Forget it."
However, there were also some families with better financial conditions who directly took out 40 coins and said, "I'll buy two, these two."
"good."
Qiao Suluo took the forty coins with a smile and gave two to the woman.
Soon, in less than an hour, Qiao Su Luo sold out all the konjac cakes. She made six dolls in total, and the last one was also sold.
Just as I was closing my stall, a middle-aged woman dressed very nicely ran over and said, "Hey, little girl, are you selling that doll?"
Qiao Su Luo was a little confused. Seeing her panting and hurried appearance, she didn't know what was going on. "Well, what's wrong?"
Is there any problem?
The middle-aged woman suddenly smiled and said, "Do you have any more dolls? I bought them all."
When Qiao Su Luo heard that they were here to buy something, she immediately smiled enthusiastically and said, "Auntie, I'm so sorry, I only made a few dolls, and they sold out a long time ago."
"If you like it, you can order it in advance. I'll make a few of the shapes you need. You can come and pick them up when I'm done. But you need to pay a deposit."
She is in urgent need of money now, so if business comes to her door, she will grab it quickly.
It's still early now, so she'll go back and make more today.
Anyway, she still has a lot of clothes, and the fabric can be taken apart to make dolls, which doesn’t cost much for the time being.
This thing cannot be used as a long-term business, because if someone finds that this business is good, it is easy to imitate it. But food is different. Food cannot be imitated just by looking at it.
Therefore, if Qiao Su Luo were to do business, she would mainly focus on the food business. If someone imitated these handmade puppets later, she would not do it anymore.
The woman said, "To be honest, my neighbor bought one. I took a look at it and the craftsmanship is very good. The appearance of the little animal is also very cute."
Otherwise, the two children from the neighborhood wouldn't have fought over a stuffed doll and cried so loudly. She went over to help and found out what was going on. She also looked at the stuffed doll and found that the shape of the doll was something that most people couldn't imagine.
Who would have thought that the older child from the neighbor's house also wanted it, and even started arguing with his sister over it.
And her children saw it and wanted it, so she immediately saw a business opportunity.
Qiao Su Luo actually likes doing handicrafts, and she is very happy to be recognized by others. "As long as Auntie thinks it's good, it's good. I guarantee the quality of my work."
She is very strict about what she does and won't do it casually.
The woman listened to these words and nodded in her heart. After observing for a while, she found that although the girl was ugly and fat, her eyes were clear and pure, which showed that she was a person with a good heart. Moreover, it was rare for a female beast to be willing to set up a stall to support her family.
"Little girl, can you make more of these dolls? I'll buy them no matter how many you make. The deposit is negotiable."
"To be honest, my family runs an embroidery shop. Our cloth shop is called Jinxiu Cloth Shop. Although it's not well-known now, if you ask some of the elderly people in the county, they will all know about our embroidery shop. Our reputation is definitely good, and I won't frame you."
