After finishing one bun, the security guard smacked his lips and looked at the other one, not wanting to eat it.
This is an expensive thing, and he has to let his wife and children at home taste it. He felt in his pocket and took out sixty cents, "Fubao, I won't be polite to you. I'll give you one for ten and a half cents, and give me two more."
Tian Chengcheng took a paper bag and readily filled it with four for him. "Uncle, you are our first customer. I wish you good luck and good fortune."
The guard was so happy to hear her words that he smiled widely.
"You are such a nice-sounding kid. No wonder Accountant Luo likes you."
Tian Chengcheng pretended not to understand what the guard said and said with a smile, "Uncle, we will come here to sell buns in the future, so please take care of us."
"Sure, sure." The guard was very happy. Seeing that they only brought a suitcase, he found a long bench in the back for them. "You can use it. Just put it in the back when you're done."
Seeing that it was time to get off work, the three of them placed two thermal boxes on the bench.
Tian Chengcheng was standing in front selling the goods, Wang Xiaohong was mainly responsible for packing the buns, and Zhaodi was responsible for collecting the money.
From now on, she can't come with him to sell buns every day, so Zhaodi has to take charge on her own.
After get off work, workers came out one after another, including many young girls and boys.
Tian Chengcheng wore black corduroy overalls, a white doll sweater, and a bun with two small cherries as decoration. Her facial features were so beautiful and dazzling that when she stood aside, she would get 120% of the attention.
Just when everyone was watching her intently, she opened her cherry lips and shouted, "Selling buns!"
The soft and sticky voice seems to have magic, and it makes my heart soften when I listen to it.
"Little girl, how much are these buns for?" Several girls came up to her and teased her.
"Hello, beautiful sister. These are soup dumplings, a craft passed down from the imperial kitchen. They're 20 cents each. Would you like to buy one to try? They're delicious. I'm not kidding."
Tian Chengcheng blinks her big eyes, and her appearance is so cute that it can melt people's hearts.
"A skill passed down from the imperial kitchen? Little boy, it's not nice to lie."
"Beautiful sister, I am not lying. If you don't believe me, try one. If it doesn't taste good, it's free." Tian Chengcheng smiled, picked up a soup dumpling with a bamboo clip, put it in a paper bag, and handed it over.
Several girls were dizzy from being called "beautiful sister" all the time by her, and even their voices of questioning did not contain the slightest hint of blame.
I just think this little girl is so pretty.
I really want to give you a kiss!
"Okay, sister, try one. If it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay." One of the girls took the bun, took a bite, and immediately screamed, "Wow!"
The other girls immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
"It's delicious," the girl said, taking another careful bite. "It's really delicious. This is the best bun I've ever had, I swear."
The girl said, taking out a dollar from her bag, "Give me four more."
Soon, more and more people gathered around, and everyone paid for the buns with the idea of trying them.
The three of them were very busy. Because Tian Chengcheng was small, many girls "coveted" her "beauty". They would gently touch her little face from time to time and almost kiss her.
Tian Chengcheng felt a little breathless.
I wish I could stretch my waist like a bamboo and grow taller quickly.
Oh, what a tiny thing!
What a loss!
In less than half an hour, all 150 buns were sold out.
There were also quite a few people waiting to buy buns.
"Sorry, we're sold out today. Come back tomorrow to buy."
"Ah, sold out so quickly?" Everyone was a little dissatisfied. "When will you come tomorrow? Can you come at noon?"
"I can come." Wang Xiaohong agreed immediately.
She never dreamed that the buns costing two cents would be sold out so quickly. Before this, she couldn't even think of buying two cents, let alone two cents.
The gap is extremely large.
She wanted to keep making buns and selling them.
When everyone heard that they would come back to sell it tomorrow, they calmed down a little.
Tian Chengcheng took the opportunity to say, "Dear brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, due to the quality of the soup dumplings, we can't make too many every day. So, we can only provide about 100 soup dumplings each time, at noon and in the evening. If you want to eat, please go early. In order to ensure that as many people as possible can taste it, each person can only buy five dumplings."
Tian Chengcheng is well aware of sales tactics.
The more people rush to buy something, the more delicious it tastes.
Wang Xiaohong was just about to say that she could do more when Zhaodi stopped her.
"Mom, don't say anything, just listen to Fubao."
She felt that what Fubao said made sense.
Wang Xiaohong quickly shut her mouth and looked at Tian Chengcheng silently.
But I was trying hard to recall in my mind how much these buns that Fubao mentioned could be sold for in total, probably twenty or thirty yuan!
When Wang Xiaohong thought of the money, she became so excited that her eyes turned red.
After Zhaodi and Tian Chengcheng finished packing the insulated box, they looked up and saw their mother crying. They were terrified, "Mom, please don't be angry with me. I was just too excited and spoke without respect. Otherwise, you can hit me a few times and stop crying."
Wang Xiaohong rubbed her eyes and tried hard to control her emotions.
She shouldn't have cried in the street with so many people watching her, but her tears kept falling.
"Mom, Mom, what are you doing?"
Zhaodi was at a loss when she saw her mother crying.
"Auntie Wang - are you okay?" Tian Chengcheng was also frightened. Why did she suddenly cry like this?
Wang Xiaohong wiped the corners of her eyes vigorously with her sleeves and said, "I'm fine. I'm just too happy and can't help it."
Tian Chengcheng and Zhaodi looked at each other and understood.
The next second, Zhaodi also burst into tears.
The mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.
Tian Chengcheng: “…”
Facing everyone's gazes, I felt a little embarrassed.
But her eyes were also a little warm.
Oh, so touching!
She decided to lend them money to open a bun shop, charging only a symbolic interest and not sharing the profits with them.
It's not easy for the four of us. When we first arrived here, there were so many things we needed to spend money on. Apart from anything else, we had to at least buy a house of our own so that the four of us would have a place to stay.
Back at the shop, Zhaodi poured all the money onto the table. With their experience in selling cloth, they were already very skilled at sorting the money.
Afraid that they couldn't count them, Tian Chengcheng specially taught them a trick: if there were dozens of bills, just use a piece of money to hold them up. This way, they would be integers and there would be no confusion.
"Guess how much it sold for?" Zhaodi asked excitedly.
Everyone was looking forward to seeing Zhaodi, but only Tian Chengcheng showed her small white teeth and looked very calm.
"Fubao, this is the ten yuan you borrowed. I'll pay you back first. The rest, a total of twenty-nine yuan and forty cents!" Zhaodi announced excitedly, "We're rich!"
