Qiao Youfu took a deep breath, and then he shouted, "A box of twelve long sesame balls is only 80 cents. It's very fashionable to carry it as a gift for weddings. Premium fruit candies, half a pound in a bag, are only 80 cents. You don't have to pack them yourself. It's classy to carry them to visit relatives."
Qiao Jiangxin also shouted loudly on the second floor of the station, "White sugar is 88 cents a pound, and brown sugar is only 78 cents. They are rare goods. They will be gone once they are sold out. In addition, if you buy more than one yuan in the store today, you will get a wine glass of melon seeds for free. First come, first served, while stocks last~"
After he finished speaking, Qiao Jiangxin looked at the crowd downstairs rushing quickly into the store.
"Brown sugar is only 78 cents a pound? The supply and marketing cooperative is selling it for 80 cents and it's out of stock. My daughter will need it soon, so I'll buy a pound for her."
"Eighty cents for half a pound of fruit candy, isn't that just loose candy? And can it be packaged? Let me see, let me see~"
"I'm just about to buy some couplets. Are the ones you buy for 10 cents the same as the ones sold at the supply and marketing cooperative for 28 cents? People say that the couplets sold at the supply and marketing cooperative are printed by a big publishing house."
The guests were chatting and chatting, making the place very lively.
Qiao Youcai and Qiao Youfu each watched over a cabinet, Liu Xinyan stood at a counter, Qiao Jiangxin also rushed down from upstairs to greet the guests, and Xu Wu and Gu Yunzhou looked around to prevent some guests from stealing.
Liu Xinyan just shouted at the door that they are not going to make any money from opening today, they are only going to gain popularity. But the only thing that is not profitable is the free melon seeds, and the rest is just a matter of how much profit they make.
But the price is indeed favorable, and the real thin goods sell well.
Everyone was so busy that they didn't even have time to drink water. It was not until after twelve in the morning when the people who came to the market gradually dispersed that Qiao Jiangxin finally had time to rest.
Liu Xinyan sat on a bench, leaning her back against the wall weakly. "Jiang Xin, you must get me something good to replenish my body today. My voice is hoarse. The last time I was so busy was when I first joined the military hospital. There were not enough people and we encountered a group of wounded soldiers."
Qiao Jiangxin drank the hot water to moisten her throat. "I can't do it at noon. I'm tired too. Let's talk about it in the evening."
Gu Yunzhou said softly, "If the market is like this, then Uncle Qiao and Uncle Qiao will definitely be too busy to handle it."
Qiao Jiangxin shook his head, "We only have market days on the 2nd, 5th and 8th of each month, and we're only busy for a few hours in the morning, so there are basically fewer customers in the afternoon.
After we left, my mother, my aunt, Grandma Liao and others came up and it was barely enough. ”
Gu Yunzhou nodded, "Well, it's only before 12 o'clock now, everyone is willing to spend money. After 12 o'clock, even if there is a market, there will not be so many customers."
Qiao Youfu continued as he restocked the goods, "Yes, and we have some peddlers who buy goods from here. There are only so many of them in a town, and they carry goods from all over the country, so they have to share a lot of customers."
Qiao Youcai also smiled, "But they can't bring too much goods, heavy, fragile, or large items. They can't bring these. After all, they are just small items, and they have to consider the loss, so the guests have to come to the town."
After restocking the store, most people in the market had dispersed, with only a few customers coming in.
It was enough for Qiao Youfu and Qiao Youcai to watch over the store. Qiao Jiangxin took Gu Yunzhou, Liu Xinyan, Xu Wu and others to Gao Shi Village for dinner and moved some packed things to the town.
Xu Wu knew that Zhuzi was going to study in the town, and his wife asked the Qiao family for help. The Qiao family also deposited 15 yuan for Zhuzi every month. In her heart, she wished she could kowtow in front of the ancestors' graves and pray for their ancestors to bless the Qiao family for better and better.
