"Would you like to try it?"

Bai Qingyao knew that if she said it was delicious, they would definitely not believe her. It would be better to let them taste it themselves so that they would believe it.

The middle-aged man had a look of doubt on his face, but when he saw Bai Qingyao's sincere expression and the oyster in her hand, curiosity took over most of his heart.

When he looked up, he saw the three little ones looking at him eagerly, looking a little pitiful. He couldn't help but feel angry.

"Okay! Let me try!"

"This is my own special dipping sauce. It will taste even better with this."

The middle-aged man looked at the shell in his hand and asked, "How do you eat it?"

“You just need to crack the shell open, take the meat out, and dip it in a small amount of dipping sauce.”

Following her steps, the middle-aged man took out the oyster meat and stuffed a small amount of the dipping sauce Bai Qingyao prepared into his mouth.

"Ok!"

His eyes suddenly widened, "Delicious!"

As he spoke, he chewed the oyster in his mouth and savored the taste slowly.

"Girl, how do you sell this?"

"One penny per pound."

Bai Qingyao spoke with a smile.

Oysters are not uncommon for people living by the sea, but what is rare is the sauce.

Moreover, each oyster with a big head weighs more than half a pound. Two pounds cost one cent, and if you buy a big one, you can only buy about two.

The backpack she brought must have weighed at least thirty or forty kilograms.

Although the money she could earn was not much, it was her first day after all, so she wanted to test the waters and know which direction to develop in the future.

"Okay, give me ten pounds."

The middle-aged man waved his hand and gave Bai Qingyao ten cents.

When it came time to weigh in, Bai Qingyao was stumped.

She doesn't have a scale at home, so she can't weigh the items now.

On the stall next to her was a middle-aged woman selling candy cakes. Seeing Bai Qingyao's embarrassment, she said, "Here, young lady, use mine first."

"Thank you, aunt."

When the old lady saw that Bai Qingyao had nothing to hold the food, she pulled out a few pieces of oil paper from the side.

A woman came out with her three children to buy things. The middle-aged woman looked at them with pity and sighed in her heart. People like this should be helped if possible.

After Bai Qingyao finished weighing the oysters, she saw the oil paper handed to her by the lady next to her and quickly expressed her gratitude.

"Thank you."

The middle-aged man took the oysters and left excitedly. Bai Qingyao then turned to look at the middle-aged woman.

"Auntie, thank you for what I did just now."

"How much is the oil paper? I'll return it to you."

"No need, it's just a piece of oil paper. It's not easy for you to take care of three children, so any help is appreciated."

Bai Qingyao smiled, looked at the woman and continued, "Auntie, I don't have any oil paper here, and I need to sell something. How about I pay for some of your oil paper?"

As she spoke, Bai Qingyao took out six coins from the ten coins she had just received and handed them to the woman at the candy and cake stall.

The woman looked at the silver and money that Bai Qingyao handed over with a smile on her face, but she also knew that what she said was true.

"Those oil-paper bags are worthless. We don't need them."

"How can that be? Auntie, if you don't accept the money, I will always feel guilty."

"Just keep this money."

The three little ones looked at Bai Qingyao straight, watching her hand over the money she had just earned to the old lady beside her. Although they were confused, they didn't say anything.

Looking at the silver and money that Bai Qingyao had taken from her, the woman took three cents and gave the rest to Bai Qingyao.

"Girl, we don't need so much oil paper. Take these back."

"Okay, thank you, auntie." Seeing the woman's resolute attitude, Bai Qingyao didn't know what to say, so she turned around and took some oysters and handed them to the woman.

"I made this on my own, please don't be disgusted, Auntie. Give it to me and try it."

"Then I won't be polite."

The woman looked at the oysters in front of her and couldn't refuse, so she accepted them generously.

Just after closing up, many people passed by the stall one after another. It took a long time before a woman stopped.

"What are you selling, young lady?"

"Auntie, these are oysters."

"Is this food edible?"

"Of course." Bai Qingyao picked up the small oysters that had been prepared on the side and handed them to her. "You can taste our oysters first. If you don't like the taste, you don't have to buy them."

The woman was skeptical, as she had never seen this thing before. However, seeing the three little guys eating happily here, she wanted to come over and take a look.

He bent down to take the oysters, dipped them in the sauce, and put them in his mouth.

The woman's eyes lit up.

"How to sell this thing?"

"One penny per pound."

"One penny per pound?" The woman frowned. "These are just shells. How much can a pound contain?"

Oysters have big shells and cost one penny per pound. You can’t eat much of them, so it’s still a bit expensive.

"Can't it be cheaper?"

"Auntie, it can't be any cheaper. These are the oysters I picked up early at the beach. Each one is very plump. Even though they have shells on the outside, there's still a lot of meat inside."

"Besides, with the dipping sauce I sell for a penny per pound, there's not much profit left."

"But aren't these things from the seaside? They don't cost much, right?"

"Auntie, you're joking. If you go looking for something like that on the beach, you'll have to leave your life to fate. You're obviously a reasonable person. As for the money... I really can't offer a lower price..."

The woman was blocked when she heard Bai Qingyao's words, but this thing was really delicious. "Okay, give me three pounds."

As he said that, he took out some silver and handed it to Bai Qingyao.

Although three pounds is not a lot, it is enough for the people at home to taste.

"Oysters, delicious and tender oysters—"

Seeing that the business here was really bad, Bai Qingyao started to learn from the stall owner next to her.

The three little ones looked at Bai Qingyao and walked to the stall, but they were a little embarrassed to speak.

"Ah Xuan, take your brothers and sit aside. After we finish selling the oysters, Mommy will take you to buy some delicious food."

"it is good."

Gu Zexuan nodded sensibly.

"If you're hungry, have some oysters first."

Seeing this, the woman next to her, Aunt Luo, took a few sweet cakes from her stall.

"Here, girl, this is for the child."

"Auntie, how can this be done——"

"Why not? I just took some of your oysters. It's just a few sweet cakes."

Seeing Bai Qingyao hesitate, Aunt Luo frowned and said, "If you give me money, I won't be happy."

Although they had only met once, it was rare for people to have a mutual attraction. However, this young lady today was someone she had a good impression of.

"Also, young lady, my husband's last name is Luo, so you can call me Aunt Luo."

"Okay, Aunt Luo."

"Ah Xuan, A Jing, A Huai, come here quickly, thank you Grandma Luo."

"Thank you, Grandma Luo."

"Oh, you're welcome."

Although the three little ones are thin, they are not ugly, and they look very pitiful.
