After being divorced, I took care of my two children and reached the peak of my life
Chapter 19 Black-Hearted Vendor
It turned out that after the man took the bamboo pillow back, his wife not only blamed him for not buying enough large intestines, but also blamed him for only buying a bamboo pillow for himself. So he ran back, thinking of buying two more large intestines and then buying a bamboo pillow for his wife.
When I learned that the large intestines were sold out, I was disappointed. Fortunately, I bought a bamboo pillow, which gave me something to report back.
Afterwards, he made an appointment with Han Yiyi to leave two portions of braised large intestines for him tomorrow. Knowing that Daniu could also weave bamboo pillows for children, he asked him to bring two children over tomorrow.
After the two of them packed up their things, it was already getting late, so Han Yiyi went straight to the pork shop to get a few pig intestines that Butcher Li had left for her.
On the way back, Da Niu's smile never relaxed, and his eyes were full of gratitude when he looked at Han Yiyi.
"Sister Yiyi, thank you..."
"It's because your craftsmanship is good that you can get recognition from others..."
When they returned to Aunt Zhang's house, Aunt Zhang learned that Han Yiyi had helped Daniu sell all the bamboo pillows and had earned more than a hundred coins in one day. So she insisted on inviting Han Yiyi to her house for dinner. Han Yiyi was really tired and didn't want to go back to cook, so she agreed directly.
After lunch, he took the two children back to the thatched hut. After returning to the hut, he took out all the money he had earned today and counted it without taking a rest.
Excluding the money spent on buying large intestines today, there are still 560 coins left. In this way, excluding the wood used, flour used for cleaning, etc., there is still a net profit of 500 coins.
She had asked Aunt Zhang before, and found out that if she wanted to build three large tiled houses, she would need about twenty taels of silver. Adding the money she earned from selling ginseng, she only needed to sell braised large intestines for another month to build new houses.
Everything else can be taken care of slowly. Han Yiyi has had enough of living in this thatched cottage.
The next morning, Han Yiyi had just put the braised large intestines into the wooden barrel when Da Niu came over and helped him move the barrel to the village entrance. The second day's business was even better than the first, and the intestines were sold out very early. Da Niu's ability to deal with customers was also much better than the first day. In addition, he also made some small ones specifically for children. He actually earned 150 coins that day.
But when the two of them went there on the third day, they saw that there was another stall not far from their stall that was also selling braised large intestines. In front of that stall was a wooden sign that said "Braised large intestines for seven cents each."
Seeing the sign opposite, Han Yiyi thought to himself, he didn't expect that the business competition in ancient times was so simple and crude.
Han Yiyi looked at several previous customers who were originally coming in her direction, but after seeing the prices on the opposite side, they went back to the opposite side.
However, Han Yiyi was not in a hurry when she saw this. She was very confident in modern marinade packets.
Sure enough, not long after, several customers who bought braised large intestines from the opposite shop came back and cursed the boss opposite.
"What does this thing smell like? You said it tastes the same as the one on the other side, but it's not only smelly, but the taste is also worlds apart. Give me your money back quickly..."
It turned out that the boss across the street was originally a chef. He had bought large intestines from Han Yiyi before and went home to study it himself. When he felt that it was almost done, he took it out to sell. He thought that the taste would be worse, but he sold it at a low price, so he would definitely be able to sell it.
Watching the quarrel across from them, Han Yiyi couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth, thinking to herself, after having tasted the flavors of her modern marinade packets that had been prepared by generations, her taste has become spoiled.
However, there are still a few people who go to the opposite side. After all, it is several cents cheaper. Han Yiyi also asked Daniu to buy her one to try. It is not bad. If you just want to satisfy your craving, it is fine.
In the following days, Han Yiyi was worried that the previous customers would get tired of the food, so he added braised pork head, pig ears, pig liver, pig stomach and other dishes. Business became better and better. However, for some reason, the boss across the street did not show up in the next few days.
Han Yiyi's business is getting better and better, while Da Niu's bamboo pillows are selling less and less. Han Yiyi is a little puzzled. Logically, there is no competitor, and Da Niu's weaving is so good, so it shouldn't be difficult to sell.
All of his braised food had been sold out. Looking at Da Niu who was frowning and hadn't sold even a bamboo pillow in the whole morning, he spoke.
"Danniu, I have sold out these things. I'm going to buy some things. Can you keep an eye on them for me first..." Han Yiyi said as he walked around the street. Sure enough, there was a stall at a corner not far from them.
There were many bamboo pillows placed in front of him, and a sign in front of him said "eight cents for one, two for fifteen cents".
In fact, the most common form of market competition is price war. You can't say it is despicable. After all, no one stipulates that only you can sell this thing, and no one stipulates that others cannot sell this thing at a lower price.
Looking at the people coming and going in front of him, Han Yiyi also walked up, picked up one and touched it in his hand, but as soon as he took it in his hand, his brows frowned slightly.
Not to mention whether the weaving is as exquisite as that of a big cow, even the burrs on it are not cleaned up. Looking at the cuts on my fingers that were almost cut, I heard the boss of this hawker say to one of the customers.
"Hey, you can use my bamboo pillow without worry. I made it by myself. It's cheap and easy to use. I won't sell it to you at such a high price like that unscrupulous person over there..." As he said this, he turned around and pointed in the direction of Da Niu.
I have to say that this vendor is very good at finding the right spot. From his position, he can see the big cow's position just by turning sideways, but they have not known for so many days that there is a bamboo pillow seller here.
Listening to the dealer's words, Han Yiyi narrowed his eyes. It is your right to sell at a low price, but it is immoral to pull others down to raise your own prices.
So Han Yiyi wanted to argue with him, but before he could open his mouth, he saw a woman standing in front of the peddler with a crying child in her hand.
The woman pointed at the vendor and started cursing.
"You are so heartless. You didn't even clean up the bamboo thorns on the woven bamboo pillow. It even pricked my child's hand. What do you think we should do..."
"Auntie, you must have misunderstood. I have carefully woven these, and the bamboo strips have been finely polished. There is no way there can be any bamboo thorns..."
The peddler looked at the fierce woman, and the child beside him was indeed still bleeding from his fingers. He felt a little uneasy, but he still started to explain.
"Bullshit, look for yourself, there is blood on this pillow...", and then he threw the pillow at the vendor.
When the peddler saw the blood on the bamboo pillow, he felt even more uneasy, but the next moment, his eyes shifted and he spoke.
"Auntie, I can guarantee that the bamboo strips and bamboo slices I use have been carefully polished and there is no possibility of burrs. This bamboo pillow is not mine. You must have bought it there...", as she said this, pointing her finger in the direction of Da Niu.
