Shen Qingqing looked at the cabbage piled up like a small mountain at her feet and called out, "Does anyone want some vegetables? I have too much here and I can't finish it, so I'm selling it at a low price."
There were many people in the square at this time. Many people heard the sound and immediately followed the sound to find Shen Qingqing.
Someone rubbed his hands and asked shyly, "Big sister, I heard you say you want to sell vegetables, is that true?"
"It's true, big sister. To be honest, there are not many people in my family. There are too many vegetables. It would be a waste if we can't finish them. I think the weather here is not suitable for making pickles, so I thought about selling some of them to prevent them from going bad, right?"
"Is that so? Okay, okay, then how do you sell these vegetables? There are many people in my family, and we are worried that we won't have enough vegetables to eat." The sister-in-law was very happy. After thinking for a while, she looked up at Shen Qingqing with a little worry, "But, I don't know how you sell these vegetables, if they are too expensive..."
She was a little conflicted, fearing that the vegetable would be too expensive and she couldn't bear to part with it.
There are many children in the family and they eat a lot. The food she gets is not enough for a family of ten to eat for a month.
I then thought that if I get a lot of vegetables, I could pickle a jar of them and eat them later, or dry them into jerky.
But who would have thought that the amount of vegetables this time was half less than last time, which made her very worried.
Shen Qingqing smiled and said, "How about this, sister-in-law? The supply and marketing cooperative outside charges 2 cents per pound of cabbage. I'll give you 20% of it. We're all colleagues, and I won't make more money from you. How about I give you a 10 cent discount per pound?"
"Really?" The sister-in-law was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. One catty was cheaper by one cent, ten catties was one cent, and one hundred catties was one dimes.
She shouted happily, "Can you give me 50 kilograms?"
There were people nearby who were attracted by the noise they made, and when they heard her ask for fifty kilograms, they instantly became unhappy.
"No, how can you be like this? Everyone is waiting to buy it, and you want 50 kilograms by yourself. How can others buy it?"
The sister-in-law blushed when she was reminded of this, and stammered, "Yes, sorry, I was too excited. Then, can I take 30 kilograms?"
"Okay, sister-in-law, you are the first person to ask me, so I will pack 30 kilograms of cabbage for you, and the rest of you can buy at most 15 kilograms each, so that everyone can buy some."
"Okay, thank you very much, big sister!" The sister-in-law smiled gratefully at Shen Qingqing, and then she heard Shen Qingqing say, "Thirty catties of cabbage, two cents per catty, thirty catties is a dime, you can just give me a dime?"
"But I have to say it first."
"Sister-in-law, I'm not responsible for delivering these dishes. You have to take them back yourself."
"Of course, it's great that you can sell these vegetables to me at a low price, big sister. Why would I bother you to deliver them to me? I can carry them back by myself, don't worry."
Shen Qingqing borrowed a scale from a nearby staff member and weighed out thirty kilograms of cabbage for the sister-in-law. The onlookers also immediately squeezed forward and asked for fifteen kilograms of vegetables.
Shen Qingqing only left 30 kilograms of cabbage and 15 kilograms of green vegetables.
The rest were all sold at two cents to some military wives with large families. You know what, these vegetables sold out very quickly. It didn't take much effort to buy them.
In the end, they sold the vegetables for a total of two dollars. Shen Qingqing rolled up the handful of bills and stuffed them into her clothes. Just as she was about to take the remaining vegetables home, she saw Shen Jiaojiao walking up to her with a look of contempt.
"Sister, you are really a saint. We only gave you a few dishes, but you didn't keep them for yourself. You sold them. It's fine if you sold them, but you sold them at a much lower price. You are really stupid."
