Qingxi Town is located between the upper and lower villages, and there are several smaller villages nearby. Villagers from the surrounding villages come to the town to buy or sell things.
When buying things, no one will care where you buy them, but when selling things, you have to be careful.
Mrs. Wang went to see Captain Zhang to avoid trouble from others.
"Don't worry, auntie. I'll go with you to find a place to set up the stall. No one will dare to trouble you while I'm here!" Captain Zhang waved his hand and led the way.
The government office of Qingxi Town is actually an office under the Shanghe County government office. Captain Zhang is the biggest one, and the whole town is under his jurisdiction.
With Captain Zhang around, Su Liuer and Wang Pozi successfully set up a stall under a big tree on the street. Next to them was a woman selling hair flowers. Their businesses did not conflict, so the woman was very welcoming.
One more sale without conflict can attract more customers.
"What are you selling? It looks so black and I've never seen it before!" the woman beside her asked curiously.
Su Liuer explained as she took out a bowl from the hanging basket and filled it up: "This is grass jelly honey, it's great for cooling off in the summer heat!"
This bowl is specially served to Captain Zhang.
When Su Liuer added sugar, she asked Mo Hu to add a little bit of ice thorn icicle powder. She had asked Mo Hu to take an icicle from the ice thorn and make the powder early in the morning. The powder was very fine, so fine that it could not be distinguished when mixed with powdered sugar.
What's more, Su Liuer was squatting, so no one would come over and stare at her.
"Captain Zhang, it's hot, please try it!" Su Liuer smiled and handed over the bowl with a spoon.
Mrs. Wang also said, "Just think of it as opening the shop for us."
"Since we're opening, we have to charge money. How much?" Captain Zhang took out his wallet and asked.
The price was agreed upon by Su Liuer and Wang Po at home.
"Two cents a bowl, three cents for two bowls," said Mrs. Wang.
Captain Zhang gave two cents and took the bowl from Su Liuer. The bowl was not small and was filled to the brim. Captain Zhang picked up the spoon and took a big bite, then took another big bite. Finally, he lifted the bowl and tilted his head back to eat up all the leftovers!
"Give me another bowl!" Captain Zhang took out another two cents.
Su Liuer responded and quickly went to get a new bowl. Mrs. Wang returned a penny and said, "Three pennies for two bowls."
"What did you call this?"
"This is called Grass Jelly Honey. It tastes sweet and refreshing, and is perfect for eating in hot weather. After eating a bowl, don't you feel a lot cooler?" Su Liuer continued while serving.
The key to running a business is to highlight one's own characteristics. Mung bean soup can also relieve heat and summer heat, but how can mung bean soup be as cool and delicious as her "specially made" grass jelly honey?
Captain Zhang nodded repeatedly, "Yes! It's truly magical! No wonder it's called Grass Immortal Honey. It actually has such miraculous effects. I feel much cooler now!"
"Really? Captain Zhang, you are not kidding us?" Someone who was just watching the fun from the side didn't quite believe it. This black thing didn't look tasty.
At this time, Su Liu'er had just finished serving a new bowl. Captain Zhang took it and said, "Whether you like to eat it or not, I have to take it home to my wife. She's very pregnant and afraid of the heat!"
This portion is not too much, and it will not affect pregnant women. However, she still reminded: "Pregnant women should not eat cold food. Let your sister-in-law eat slowly."
Captain Zhang responded and hurriedly left with a bowl of herbal honey. As he left, many people gathered around to watch. Captain Zhang was known for being henpecked! He was busy bringing it back to please Madam Zhang, so it must be good!
Anyone with eyes can see that a bowl of mung bean soup that is mostly just soup with little mung beans costs one cent, but a full bowl of this grass jelly honey costs only two cents, which is too cheap!
"Give me a bowl to try!" A fat man who looked very greedy gave two cents first.
