Chapter 327: Obstacles in Buying Candy
Aunt Li nodded hurriedly, then left with a grateful look on her face.
Looking at the person who had already walked away, Zhu Yun asked her daughter: "Do you think she will agree?"
Liu Xiaoxiao nodded and replied, "I think so! After all, this is the best solution so far."
Zhu Yun nodded in agreement, and then discussed with her daughter, "Should we go buy some candy now?"
Liu Xiaoxiao replied as a matter of course: "Of course. This time we not only want to buy sugar, but also quicklime."
Zhu Yun: "Okay, you can buy whatever you want with the money you earn."
After saying that, she looked at Liu Xiaoxiao's clothes and asked, "Do you still have clothes? Otherwise, I'll go get some cloth and go home..."
"Yes, yes, I took most of my clothes with me. Mom, let me tell you, I plan to buy a lot of candy this time, so if you bring money, you might as well buy me candy. The price of candy is almost as high as that of gold." Liu Xiaoxiao saw that her mother was going to make clothes for her again, and hurriedly interrupted.
Seeing her daughter's excitement about her first business venture, Zhu Yun didn't insist and just smiled and agreed, "Okay."
However, when the mother and daughter excitedly arrived at the sugar shop, they were told that sugar was an extremely important strategic commodity. Therefore, the court established a rule that individuals must not buy large quantities of sugar, otherwise, the government would call in the water meter.
After finding out why the other party was unwilling to sell more, Liu Xiaoxiao explained to him that she was actually a businessman, and the reason she bought so much candy was also because of business needs.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper asked her to produce her business license, or the imperial document.
Liu Xiaoxiao thought of the small place where she usually set up her stall and said awkwardly, "Boss, my business is still a little small, so I haven't had time to apply for those documents yet. Can you sell it to me once today? When I come next time, I will definitely bring all the documents to show you."
The shopkeeper was already accustomed to seeing people saying this in order to buy candy, so he remained indifferent to Liu Xiaoxiao's words and had no intention of agreeing at all.
Liu Xiaoxiao was about to say something when she heard a woman next to her ask, "Is this the girl who sold winter melon candy at the market a few days ago?"
Liu Xiaoxiao took a look at the man and found that his facial features were very handsome and youthful. She concluded that he was not a bad person, and then nodded and replied, "That's right."
The woman, realizing she hadn't mistaken her, stepped forward and said, "Young lady, I've tried the winter melon candy you make, and it's really delicious. It's a pity I left a little late today, and by the time I got to the market, you'd already sold out and closed your stall."
When Liu Xiaoxiao heard that it was actually her old customer, she was so happy. She said with a smile, "I'm so happy that my sister likes me. But the stock is a little low today. Look, I rushed over to buy more materials as soon as they sold out!"
The woman hadn't expected Liu Xiaoxiao to be so sweet-tongued. She'd actually called her "sister" right off the bat. She shyly brushed the hair by her ear and whispered, "I've heard everything you said just now. Since you're in urgent need of sugar, I have a little extra at home, so I can give you some. I hope you could reserve two pounds for me next time you come to sell sugar, okay?"
Liu Xiaoxiao never expected that she just chatted with the other party casually, but the other party actually offered to help.
She was overjoyed and immediately thanked him: "Thank you so much, sister. You've really helped me a lot! So, in addition to the two kilograms you originally ordered, I'll give you an extra half kilogram as a thank you, okay?"
The woman waved her hand and said with a smile, "That's not necessary. Half a pound of sugar is too expensive. You can keep it and sell it."
Liu Xiaoxiao refused to do so, and after some pushing and shoving, the woman finally gave in and had to agree.
Afterwards, Liu Xiaoxiao quickly packed the candy she bought from the candy shop, and then followed the woman back to her home to get the candy.
