Finally, one of the women swallowed hard and wiped her hands carefully on her clothes. "How much do you sell this braised pork thing?"

It was almost Chinese New Year, and if the price was cheap, they would be willing to add some meat to their family.

Bai Zhizhi carefully lifted a corner of the backpack to show her, "They are all made with the best meat, just like the ones we supply to restaurants in the city. This is our first time in your village, so the price is naturally affordable, only eighty coins per pound."

As Bai Zhizhi spoke, she took out a small piece of food for tasting that she had prepared in advance from her backpack and handed it to the aunt.

The aunt had already extended her hand, but when she heard the price of the braised meat, she took it back and waved her hand with a look of fear on her face.

"If you don't know, you might think your meat is made of gold. It's too expensive. We can't afford it."

Some troublemakers in the crowd immediately joined in with their nonsense, saying, "That's right, even the most expensive meat sold in the city is only twenty or so coins, and you're asking for eighty. Are you thinking we're easy to bully?"

"I think so too. They must have come to our village on purpose to cheat people. Maybe if you eat their food, you will be poisoned to death. Let's drive them away quickly."

As more and more people started talking nonsense, the crowd gradually became agitated, and those who originally didn't believe it began to look at Bai Zhizhi and the others with suspicion.

"Go away, go away, liars are not welcome in our village."

The person hiding in the back and talking nonsense seemed to be enjoying himself, and kept instigating the crowd, and some people actually started to act foolishly.

Bai Zhizhi didn't expect this situation to happen. She was a little slow to react and didn't know who pushed her. She almost fell.

Zhou Changsheng looked at the situation and was afraid that his third daughter-in-law might be hurt, so he quickly took a step forward with an apologetic smile.

"Fellow villagers, you've misunderstood. We're honest farmers, from the nearby Taohua Village, not far from here. If we get into an argument, we might as well be relatives. We're definitely not scammers. Calm down, folks."

After hearing what her father-in-law said, Bai Zhizhi took a deep breath, put on a smile again, and took two steps forward.

"My apologies, uncles and aunts. It's all my fault for not explaining clearly, but don't worry, the price of our braised meat is absolutely fair."

"Uncles and aunts, if you've been to the county town, you should have heard that our family's products not only supply the restaurants in the county town, but we also have a legitimate stall. We definitely don't mean to deceive you."

After hearing Bai Zhizhi and the others' sincere explanation, the people in Yanghe Village stopped denouncing them with a look of suspicion, but still looked at them vigilantly.

"Then your price is too high. We can't afford it in our village. You should go buy it somewhere else."

After saying this, the crowd made a move to disperse.

After being treated like this, Bai Zhizhi felt a little uncomfortable, especially since she hadn't yet found out the information she wanted. How could she just leave like that?

So she quickly took two steps forward, grabbed the sleeve of the aunt who asked the question at the beginning, and handed the braised meat in her hand forward for tasting.

"Don't be disgusted, auntie. This is the braised meat we provide to our guests for free. You can try it. It can be regarded as my apology to you aunties."

The aunt looked at Bai Zhizhi, then at the braised pork, and her facial expression changed rapidly.

Bai Zhizhi was not in a hurry. She just held the braised meat and let the aroma of the braised meat spread in the air.

She didn't believe anyone could resist the taste, especially those who had never tried it.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before the aunt surrendered. She pulled the white branch with an embarrassed look on her face and said, "Is this really free?"

"real."

Bai Zhizhi looked at her with a smile.

The aunt swallowed her saliva, staring at the braised meat without blinking, but continued to ask, "No money."

"Correct."

Bai Zhizhi was not annoyed. She just held the braised meat and waited quietly for her reaction.

Not only Bai Zhizhi, but everyone else in Yanghe Village was also looking at this aunt.
