Chapter 32 Big Loss



Chapter 32 Big Loss

In less than an incense stick of time, all the rouge was sold out.

Those who didn't buy rouge were very disappointed and asked them when they would come again.

"The day after tomorrow. Still here." Liang Huanxue answered with a smile, holding the jar of money.

Shen Yuefu couldn't believe that the rouge she made could actually be sold for twenty cents per piece!

Just listening to the rustling sound in the money jar made her feel very happy.

"Mom, let's go see Brother Wenxuan! The rice wine should be almost ready." Liang Huanxue put the jar of money in the basket and walked forward carrying the basket.

The rice wine shop was not too far away, so we got there quickly.

The sign was placed in the most conspicuous position at the entrance of the alley, but business seemed slow and not many people went in.

Occasionally, people would buy rice wine, but they would only buy a small jar and wouldn't make much money at all.

Liang Wenxuan stood at the door with a sad face. When he saw another person coming, he forced a smile, but the person he saw was his family member.

"Wenxuan, don't be discouraged. Isn't this just the beginning?" Nian Huayue felt sorry for her son and touched his head comfortingly.

"Only a few people came this morning. I'm afraid it will take a long time to sell out the rice wine I made last time. It's ridiculous that I even bought some glutinous rice, but I'm afraid it won't be enough."

"Brother Wenxuan, this place is too deep, and other people don't know about it. Just take some out and let passers-by taste it. That way, more people will naturally buy wine."

"I'm afraid there will be a lot of shameless people who drink and leave, and then not only will they not be able to sell the wine, they will also suffer a loss." A voice came from the yard.

He is the only guy in the shop.

He still had an arrogant look on his face, and if you didn't know him, you would think he was the shopkeeper.

"Qian Cong, go get some cups." Liang Wenxuan thought about it and thought it was a good idea.

It is indeed difficult for him to sell rice wine in this alley.

If he did as Xue'er said, and put a table at the entrance of the alley and let passers-by try his rice wine, even if only one out of ten people bought it, he would be able to keep this business going.

Since we are doing business, how can we think about making money right from the beginning?

No matter what, you have to invest and make sacrifices in order to get rewards.

Qian Cong looked at him as if he were a fool. "Are you crazy? County Magistrate Fu didn't give you this shop to mess with it like this."

"The previously brewed rice wine is going bad but you won't sell it. Don't you want to?" Liang Huanxue didn't know who was running Huo Huo's shop.

When they first came here, they poured a lot of brewed rice wine.

Even now I still feel nauseous when I think of the taste.

Qian Cong opened his mouth and found that he had no way to refute it.

This little girl is very eloquent.

After arguing with Qian Cong, Liang Huanxue went straight to the kitchen to get cups. She took five cups in total and also picked up a palm-leaf fan.

"The weather is not hot, what are you doing with the palm-leaf fan?" Qian Cong looked at the palm-leaf fan in her hand, feeling very surprised.

Liang Huanxue glanced at him and said, "You are so stupid, of course you can't think of what I am going to do with it."

Qian Cong was very angry with her, but he didn't dare to say anything, for fear that he would provoke her and get scolded again.

Wang Xifen saw this scene and couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, "Yuefu, Xue'er is so sharp-tongued, I wonder who she takes after?"

Neither Shen Yuefu nor Liang Yuanwang are good at speaking, and Xue'er seems to have a completely different personality from them.

She is somewhat similar to Old Lady Liang.

Nian Huayue agreed with her thoughts: "It's all because of mother's good teaching. Mother wishes she could hang Xue'er on her body every day. Xue'er's every move is exactly like mother's, as if they were cast in the same mold."

"What's wrong with looking like mom? Mom is so great. Xue'er won't suffer any loss if she looks like her." Shen Yuefu thought there was nothing wrong with this.

She is soft-hearted and easily bullied. It would not be good if Cher were like her.

You have to be like your mother, who can’t stand any bullying or suffer any loss.

Nian Huayue moved the table, Wang Xifen moved the stools, and Liang Jiajiang moved the rice wine jars, and soon a promotional booth was set up at the entrance of the alley.

Liang Huanxue opened the lid of the rice wine jar, scooped out some rice wine with a wine bucket, and carefully divided it into several cups.

The glutinous rice soaked in the spiritual spring water exudes a sweet aroma.

The fragrance spread along with the palm-leaf fan in Liang Huanxue's hand, and soon the alley was filled with the aroma of rice wine.

"This rice wine is fragrant and sweet, and it's delicious without being intoxicating. Come take a look. It's free to try a glass!"

Liang Huanxue's voice is soft and sticky, which matches the rice wine perfectly.

The aroma of the rice wine had already attracted quite a few people, and with the added bonus of being able to taste it, more and more people gathered to watch.

Liang Huanxue glanced at Liang Wenxuan, indicating that it was time for him, the shopkeeper, to take up his post.

Then she climbed down from the stool and stood at the back.

Liang Wenxuan had already thought of a set of words to introduce his rice wine, but people who came here to buy rice wine would urge him to get more wine after hearing just a few words and didn't want to continue listening.

But at this moment, the people in front of him did not urge him in order to have a sip of free wine, and some of them even listened quite seriously.

After a brief introduction, Liang Wenxuan asked them to line up and receive rice wine tasting.

"If you don't want to drink from a cup that someone else has drunk from, you can bring your own cup." Liang Wenxuan said this because he knew that people in the county town liked to be clean.

But before he finished speaking, Liang Huanxue tugged at the corner of his clothes, "What will you do if they come with teacups or even bowls?"

Not everyone is well-mannered, so Liang Huanxue couldn't help but worry that someone would take advantage of her and deliberately bring teacups and bowls.

Wouldn't that be a huge loss?

Her purpose was to let people taste it, but she didn't expect to be taken advantage of.

"There wouldn't be such a person, right? Wenxuan already told me to take the cup." Nian Huayue didn't think that someone in this county town could do such a thing.

"That's not necessarily true. Most of them are greedy people. If you don't explain clearly, there will be trouble later." Wang Xifen heard Liang Huanxue say this and was worried that something might go wrong.

But the words have already been said, and I'm afraid no one will listen if I explain it now.

Liang Huanxue turned around and went back to the shop. After searching for a long time, she finally found paper, pen and paste. She also took a piece of wood and found a small wine glass from the kitchen.

She worked for a while before finally returning to the alley entrance with the wooden board.

"Isn't that right? After trying for such a long time, I didn't sell anything. Instead, I attracted some greedy people." Qian Cong found it funny just looking at the people holding the big bowl and the teapot.

Some people even carried a wooden basin.

"What should we do now? Or should we retreat first?" Nian Huayue had never expected that the people in this county town would be so greedy.
