Chapter 182: What I Saw at the Vegetable Market
The stall owner happily put the whole piece of beef in his arms onto the scale.
"Miss, it's just over 22,000. I'll give you the full 22,000."
I didn’t expect that today’s order would be so large, and the stall owner’s skills in packaging the bags have also taken off quickly.
At this time, the cooking aunties had also selected the best beef tenderloin and brisket. The young lady also wanted to eat meat buns, so they didn't forget that.
I bought a few pounds of beef brisket and tenderloin. These ordinary meats are not that expensive. They are basically about 50% more expensive than those in ordinary vegetable markets, but the quality of the meat is indeed good.
"Miss, this is the Sunite mutton from Meng Province that just arrived yesterday. It doesn't have any mutton smell at all. Would you like to try some?"
The stall owner continued to sell his products. He felt that he could make as much sales today as he usually did in several days.
Song Tang and the aunts came over to take a look and found that the mutton was indeed good.
"Give me two pounds of front leg meat for making mutton dumplings." Aunt Wang said to the stall owner, then turned to Song Tang beside her and said, "Miss, do you want to eat braised mutton? It's my new specialty dish."
Song Tang has always been very considerate when it comes to food. "Come on, get it ready."
There is no need to worry about waste. Song Tang usually wants to eat a lot of things, and the aunts will try their best to satisfy her.
Sometimes if he made too much and no one finished eating, Song Tang would ask everyone to pack up the leftovers and take them home.
This is a good job. You have to know that everything in Song Tang's house, even a scallion, is a ridiculously expensive good thing.
How could the food made with these ingredients not be delicious? The two aunts had a good relationship with their grandchildren by occasionally packing food from Song Tang.
You know, ever since they started working for Song Tang, these two old ladies have been keeping their backs straight at home.
Normally, I only need to take care of three meals a day, and there will be even less to do after the young lady goes to school.
Sometimes when I get restless, I make some snacks for the young lady and send them to school.
Every day when I go shopping for groceries and go to and from get off work, I take a taxi, and the expenses are all reimbursed by Butler Zhou.
Occasionally, when there are a lot of things to buy or places to go, Zhao Qi and Zhao Rui will drive their Lexus LM to pick them up.
The money they bring home every month is more than what their own children earn. What’s more, they also receive various benefits from time to time. Now the children in the family respect them very much.
Of course, the aunts also know that all of this is caused by Song Tang, so they usually care about Song Tang more than their own children.
Besides, Song Tang is a person who likes to be close to his elders. Aunts often lament that it would be great if their children were as close to Song Tang as they are.
"Boss, do you know where to buy sand onions?" Aunt Wang suddenly asked.
Later she also found out that the young lady came from Mongolian Province. There was such delicious mutton today. If she could get some shallots and make some shallot mutton buns, the young lady would be so happy.
"Hey, Auntie, you finally asked the right person. If you ask someone else, they may not know what sand onion is."
The stall owner smiled as he weighed all the meat and said to Aunt Wang, "See that vegetable stall in front? The one with the colorful strips hanging on it. He has it."
After paying the bill and saying thank you, everyone walked towards the vegetable stall that the stall owner mentioned.
Sure enough, there really are sand onions, and they are sold at a fairly high price.
This thing is everywhere in the wilds of Meng Province, but when it arrived in Kyoto, its value suddenly doubled and it became a rare commodity.
Seeing that there were not many sand onions at this stall, Song Tang chose to buy them all.
Because according to the stall owner herself, she asked someone to get these, and there weren’t many of them. Other vegetable stalls didn’t have any sand onions at all.
After picking some side dishes such as green onions and ginger, the group continued walking forward. Passing by a seafood shop, Zhou Jing asked Song Tang if he wanted to eat crabs.
Song Tang looked at the crabs in the aquarium and shook her head. She didn't plan to eat seafood today. She just wanted to have a good meal of beef and mutton.
"Miss, look quickly." Zhao Qi pulled Song Tang and pointed at a famous hotel and said excitedly, "The wine from your winery is also on display there."
Not only Song Tang, but everyone looked at the shelf of the store that Zhao Qi pointed to, and sure enough, the red wine from Song Tang Winery was displayed there.
Zhao Rui tentatively asked the boss how much the wine cost, and got the reply that it was 130,000 yuan per bottle.
The boss also said that the bottle of wine in his store is not the best wine of this brand. These low-level distributors cannot get the best wine of this brand at all.
Everyone looked at each other, and Zhou Jing smiled.
It's not that it's impossible to get it. The annual production of the highest-quality wine is not much, and the lady also asked to set aside some share for herself every year. This means that there will be even less on the market.
The owner of this famous hotel listened to this group of people talking and thought that it seemed that the wine belonged to this rare wine or the little girl in the middle?
The somewhat incredulous boss came closer and asked carefully and softly, "Miss, is this brand of red wine yours?"
After seeing Song Tang really nodded to him seriously, the boss was relieved. My goodness, there were only two bottles of this stuff in his store, and he was reluctant to sell it, but the winery was owned by someone else.
"Miss, is it possible for me to get some of your wine to my store through you?"
Before Song Tang could reply, Zhou Jing beside him rejected the boss.
"I'm sorry, since you're in the wine business, you should know that the production volume of this brand is not high."
“Our winery has fixed partners and channels all over the world, including here in Longguo.”
"If you bypass it without permission, there will be a risk of breach of contract. I hope you can understand."
What Zhou Jing said made sense, and the boss could only nod with a little disappointment. Yes, as a winemaker, how could he not know?
Ordinary brands of wine can sometimes cause trouble if they are mixed with other products, not to mention these big international brands.
"I'm sorry, I was rude." The boss looked like a cultured man and spoke like a cultured person.
Song Tang shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I still have to thank you for liking our wine."
Watching the group of people walking away, the boss thought, do you even need to ask if your wine is good enough? Which winemaker wouldn't want it? It's just that it's really hard to get.
I strolled to the fruit area, and the air in the entire area was filled with the sweet scent of fruit.
"Hey? Butler Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time. Let's take a look. They are all new arrivals this morning."
A beautiful owner of a fruit shop smiled and greeted Song Tang and his group as they approached.
Zhou Jing also smiled and greeted the other party. Some of the fruits that Song Tang usually eats are bought in this market, and most of them come from the shop of this beautiful boss.
"Well, my young lady is on break today and wants to come along for a walk, so I'll go with you."
While greeting everyone, Zhou Jing also emphasized the introduction of Song Tang.
"This is my young lady, Song Tang."
"Miss, this is the owner of this shop. Many of the fruits you eat are bought from her."
