Chapter 66: Wang Mazi ruins the show
"It's not expensive, Auntie. Our family's food is made with precious things like milk, sugar, and oil. Children will become plump and white after eating it, and women will beautify themselves after eating it."
Seeing everyone's expressions changed by what she said, Gu Feixue raised her voice again:
"Our milk is freshly squeezed every day. In order to make these unique dishes, we spent six taels of silver on the cows!"
When everyone heard the six taels of silver, they immediately felt that such a high price was reasonable.
No one in the Gu family has ever done business. The old village chief used to work as a carpenter for others, but he had never done business.
So everyone could only watch Gu Feixue interacting with the guests, but they didn't know how to interrupt.
In fact, what Wang wanted to say was that since everyone thought it was expensive, it was okay for them to lower the price.
Cows can produce many buckets of milk every day, which is equivalent to something without any cost.
Making these foods only costs some money for sugar and oil, and you can make a lot of money by selling one for three cents.
After all, each serving of food was small. Even the golden buns only had two in a serving.
But Gu Feixue is not such an unprincipled person.
How much did she spend on the cow? That's six ounces of silver! In ancient times, that was a huge investment.
What I bought is not something you can find everywhere, the food is delicious and the price is very reasonable.
Seeing that everyone was somewhat tempted, no one was willing to be the first to try it. Gu Feixue could only use her trump card:
"How about this, it's no use just telling you guys. Why don't you try it and buy it if it tastes good? If it doesn't, I won't charge you."
She didn't believe that these little radishes could still walk after tasting it.
So Gu Feixue gave a little bit to everyone who was interested and let them try it.
You won’t know until you try it, and you’ll be surprised when you do!
Most of the people present had expressions of surprise on their faces, and it was obvious that they were amazed by the taste of the food.
"Isn't milk fishy? Why do they make it fragrant, sweet, sour and delicious?"
"Yes! This golden steamed bun is the most delicious steamed bun I have ever eaten!"
"Milk tea is delicious too. It has the aroma of milk and a slightly bitter tea flavor. It also makes me feel refreshed after drinking it. I no longer have to worry about tea being bitter!"
Obviously, the Gu family's food received praise from everyone present.
Although everyone still thinks it is expensive, after all, no one knows when the Gu family will be able to set up a stall again.
Everyone immediately rushed to pay, fearing that if they were too late, someone else would buy it all.
All of a sudden, the Gu family's stall business became more popular than ever before, and everyone couldn't help but come to watch the fun.
The people who were busy collecting money and taking food didn't know that some servants wearing uniform servant clothes, holding sticks and with unfriendly faces, were also staring at them not far away.
"Butler Wang, it's so lively up ahead, shall we go take a look?"
Butler Wang drooped his eyelids, gave a pretentious nod, and then the group rushed towards the Gu family's stall.
"Get out of the way! A good dog doesn't block the road!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the guests present looked at the newcomer with anger.
When Gu Feixue saw that the group of rude people were actually acquaintances, her eyelids jumped.
Great! These Qian Youliang lackeys still haven't learned their lesson! It looks like they're planning to mess up her business today?
"Everyone, today's food has been sold out. See you next time." In order to prevent accidental injury to the public, Gu Feixue had to close the business.
"Isn't there still some in the bucket?"
"Yeah, I'll close the stall after I've sold everything. I don't know when I'll be able to set up the stall again."
However, amid the noise of the crowd, Gu Feixue remained calm and spoke to Gu Tingchuan beside her.
Then Gu Tingchuan's expression froze when he heard this. He looked at Gu Feixue, nodded, and quietly left from behind the crowd.
A burly man in the group turned around and said to his companions, as if to see someone laughing at him: "Hey! I was wondering who it was! It turns out to be that fearless kid from last time!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Feixue said, "Dad and Mom, you guys should clean up the stall first."
These tables and chairs were borrowed from the villagers. If they were broken, the Gu family would feel bad.
Village chief Gu Lang and his entourage knew at first sight that this group of people were not easy to bully, so in order to avoid trouble, they had to put away the unsold food.
"Wait, did I ask you to clean up?! Catch them!"
Last time, because Gu Feixue was humiliated in public, Butler Wang obviously had no intention of letting the matter go.
Gu Feixue looked at the strength of the enemy and us, and felt something was wrong.
There were more than twenty people in Butler Wang's group, while there were only eight people in the Gu family including her.
Although the old village chief's eldest son and second son do manual labor all year round, the rest are the elderly, the weak, women and children. How can they possibly defeat the enemy?
It’s all her fault. If she had been prepared earlier, she wouldn’t be so passive!
"What do you want to do? This place is not far from the government office. If you dare to do anything wrong, be careful that we will report you to the police!"
Steward Wang wasn't afraid of reporting the matter to the authorities. Even if they did, what would happen? They beat the man up and ran away, so even if those useless people from the government came, it would be useless.
"You want to scare me by reporting me to the police? I, Wang Mazi, won't fall for it!"
After saying that, Wang Mazi waved his hand, and the thugs behind him rushed towards the Gu family.
Gu Lang immediately stood in front of Gu Feixue and Wang Shi. At the same time, Gu Feixue gritted her teeth and splashed the remaining yogurt on everyone's face.
"ah!"
Although yogurt is not as effective as chili powder, it is still acidic after all, and it is enough to make these people drunk if it comes into contact with their eyes.
This time, five or six of Wang Mazi's men were killed, but there were still more than a dozen who rushed up and smashed the Gu family's stall.
Gu Feixue's face was as cold as ice, and she was about to use her internal energy to teach them a lesson.
A group of strong men with black cloth covering their faces came running from a distance, each holding a shovel and a stick in their hands.
"Brothers, today we will eliminate the evil for the sake of fame!"
The voice of the masked burly man in the lead sounded somewhat familiar.
Tian Dali? It seems Gu Tingchuan has found help in Chema Market!
Tian Dali and his group had their faces covered with cloth, so they naturally didn't care and beat up Wang Guanjia and his group on the spot.
Gu Feixue couldn't help but tremble when she saw the tragic scene of this group of people being beaten.
Even after the overwhelming victory in the battle, some people who were dissatisfied with the situation still kicked the cannonball in.
How miserable! Serves you right!
After Wang Mazi and his men limped away, the Gu family thanked Tian Dali and his group.
"Uncle Dali, thank you so much for this time. I, Gu Feixue, will remember this kindness."
Tian Dali and the others took off the black cloth covering their faces and said embarrassedly:
"Don't be polite. They've been accomplices to the evil and doing nothing good all day long. We've been wanting to give them a good beating for a long time."
Gu Feixue couldn't help but admire him when she heard this, and said with some worry on her face:
"But what if they go back and take revenge on you?"
Tian Dali said nonchalantly:
"Brother You Tingchuan reminded us that we were covering our faces. They didn't know who we were, and even if they did, they had no evidence."
Gu Feixue finally felt relieved. Gu Tingchuan was indeed more thorough and careful in his considerations than she was.
Afterwards, the Gu family gave much of the remaining food to Tian Dali and his friends, asking them to take it back to their wives and children to try. Naturally, this group of generous men did not refuse.
