Chapter 55 Setting up a Stall
In late June, the south entered the rainy season. Many provinces experienced continuous rains, and Province E was no exception. Fang County was not affected much. It was mostly sunny and rainy, with occasional light rain and drizzle. In rural areas, it was sunny. It's normal to have rain on your head.
After the college entrance examination, high school and junior high school students were liberated. Young people can be seen everywhere on the streets in every place. As a result, many businesses are booming and the number of customers is booming.
It was the weekend again that day, so Li Daniu set up his stall as scheduled, moved a small stool to sit and watch people coming and going. It was already past nine o'clock, and young people had also gotten up to get some fresh air, and there were many young people on the pedestrian street.
"Grandpa Li, Grandpa Li -"
Li Daniu squinted his eyes slightly and admired the men and women. He was entranced. When he heard the shouting, he didn't react for a moment. He looked in front of him blankly. No one was there. He turned his head again and saw a white man standing beside him. The girl in a T-shirt and jeans was grinning at her, and she suddenly became energetic: "Xiao Lele, why do you have time to come to the county town today?"
Uncle Li's ups and downs tone was particularly joyful, Le Yun She was so amused that she giggled: "Grandpa Li, I went to the county town today to help others sell things. I couldn't find a suitable stall for a while. Let's discuss it. Can we borrow your stall to set up?" She originally wanted to wait first
. Take the time to finish the work in the fields, wait until you go to the county town to fill out the application form at school, and then set up a stall to sell goods. Yesterday, Aunt Feng and Grandma Zhou came together to help with the work in the fields. They have nothing to do at home. I decided to go to the county town in advance to sell fruits and vegetables in the space, and after filling out my application form, I could go into the mountains again to look for medicinal materials.
"It's OK, why not? Where are the things? Go and move them. I'll make room for you soon." Li Daniu smiled and started to pick up his gadgets.
"I also want to borrow Uncle Li's tricycle to carry goods. I'll talk to Uncle Li." Le Yun trotted into the store to find Li Wang, Li Daniu's son.
This is the time when young people get up to have breakfast and play. The pastry shop is doing well. Li Wang is wearing an apron and kneading dough. When he sees Le Xiaoxiao, he smiles and says: "Oh, here comes our little champion." If you want to eat something, ask your aunt to hot it for you."
Having known the Li family for a long time, Le Yun was not shy at all: "Uncle Li, I want to borrow your tricycle to help me haul some things to sell. Do you have some free time now?" "The car is parked behind you, pick it up yourself.
" Go." Without saying a word, Li Wang told Le Xiao where the car was and where the keys were, and asked her to get them by herself.
"What kind of champion is the little number one scholar?"
"Is it the number one scholar in No. 3 Middle School?"
"Boss Li, is that the number one scholar in this year's college entrance examination?"
When Boss Li called the little girl the number one scholar, the diners in the store immediately voted. There was a lot of attention and everyone was talking about it when Le Xiao's classmate went out to get the car from the back door.
"Yes, it's the Le Zhuangyuan from No. 3 Middle School. Le Xiaozhuangyuan and my father have been friends for many years. He comes to our store to help out when he has time." "Ah, it turns out to
be the Le Zhuangyuan!"
"Le Zhuangyuan just seemed to say that he wanted to sell it. Something?"
"I heard it too, but I wonder what they are selling."
The diners suddenly became very curious and wanted to know what Le Zhuangyuan was selling. They wanted to watch the fun and left in no hurry. Eating happily.
Le Yun drove around in the yard behind the Li family's shop with ease. The Li family's tricycle was also electric like Zhou Qiufeng's. It looked relatively small and could carry four to five thousand kilograms. Li Wang bought goods and went home to pull rice grains. etc. are also responsible for it.
Because she was in a hurry, she drove her car out of the pedestrian street and into a small street from another street. She deliberately parked her car in a place where many cars were parked. After observing that there was no one nearby, she instantly moved the car into the space and then pretended to lock the car. He left as if he had something to do, walked around the other end of the street to another alley, took out the loaded tricycle when no one was around, and drove to the pedestrian street.
Li Daniu put away all his gadgets, cleaned the floor, and waited eagerly for Mr. Le. The diners in the shop were also waiting. Some of them were too embarrassed to sit inside and interfere with other people's business, so they ran outside to wait.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, everyone was looking forward to the stars and the moon, and finally the little champion Le was back. When they saw the little classmate returning home with a loaded load, everyone's mouths opened like "O", and the tricycle was loaded with a full load of green beans. The melons and tomatoes are estimated to be no less than a hundred catties each.
It's already past nine o'clock, can it be sold out?
Everyone suddenly raised a question. People who buy groceries usually do so in the morning, and most of them go shopping after midnight. It would be difficult to sell such a large cart at this time.
Li Daniu didn't want to dampen the children's enthusiasm. He didn't say how to get so many and it might not be easy to sell. He helped push the car to a place close to the wall and parked it to facilitate buying and selling.
When Little Le's classmate parked the car, the onlookers also saw the goods clearly. The cucumbers were so tender that they seemed to be dripping with water, and the tomatoes were bright red and exuded an alluring smell.
Gudong -
In the past, when they saw cucumbers and tomatoes, they didn’t have much desire to eat them, but now they only have one thought: they want to eat them! I want to eat.
"Le Xiao Zhuangyuan, how much per pound?"
Before anyone could say the title, everyone couldn't control themselves and asked the price.
"Ten yuan a pound."
"Huh?" Everyone stared, as if I heard something wrong. They must have heard it wrong. It was ten yuan a pound, right?
Just as he was about to confirm the price, a classmate from Le Xiao ran into the store and found a piece of cardboard, wrote a few words with a water-core pen, and then asked Mr. and Mrs. Li Wang for a basin filled with water. The toothpick tube inside was also taken away.
Le Xiaoxiao put the sign up on the car. It read brightly on it: "Cucumbers and tomatoes cost ten yuan per catty, and the purchase limit is five catties." "
Ten... ten yuan?"
"Ten yuan per catty, and there is a purchase limit. Yes. Is that correct?"
Everyone was immediately shocked. Aren't they just cucumbers and tomatoes? They are so expensive and can be used as ginseng? Or is it because the champion is hawking, so the lion opens his mouth?
Li Daniu was also confused and wanted to ask the child if he was joking. He saw Xiao Lele setting up his small table, putting bowls and knives on it, taking two cucumbers and a few tomatoes and washing them in a basin. Go back and peel the cucumber with a knife.
"It tastes good."
The cucumber was cut into slices, and a sweet smell drifted away, making the throats of those who were whispering dry, and they swallowed hard.
Everyone stared at Le Xiao, wanting to see what she was thinking. When Mr. Le cut the tomato into pieces, a refreshing and refreshing smell spread out, and the sounds of swallowing could be heard all around.
I can’t help it anymore and want to eat it!
People who thought it was too expensive before looked at the sliced cucumbers and tomatoes cut by Little Le and almost drooled. Seeing that the little fellow was in a hurry, he was so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks. You should hurry up!
