The modern fortune-telling history of a small shopkeeper

"How do you sell this dish today?"

"Hehe, it's still the old price, how much do you want?"

"Just a bundle."

The old man has been selling vegetables here for so many years, and there are regular customers who like to come back to the old man to buy vegetables.The old man grows vegetables well and sells them cheaply. Not everyone in the town is farming, but many people go out to buy vegetables, so the vegetables in the town sell better than those in the village.

This is also the reason why everyone has worked so hard to walk such a long way, carrying things to the town to sell, in the final analysis, it is to make more money.

"I just made fish balls today, let's have a look, do you want some?"

"Chengcheng, I'll turn around first, and come back later."

People who buy vegetables will also look at their stalls by the way. Qiao Minglang let people look at their fish balls. If they don't believe it, he will let people taste it. If they think it is delicious, they can buy it again.The two people at the head tasted it and felt that their fish balls were expensive. In fact, everyone knew whether the fish balls were expensive or not, but they just couldn't bear to buy them.

Qiao Minglang smiled and asked people to come again next time.

But they were lucky. After passing a few people who just didn't want to buy it, someone bought it later, and opened the first one of the day.

It is very important to start a business. After the first order is placed, the subsequent business will come up one after another.If you are unlucky and no one buys anything for half a day, then you really have to worry about whether the business will be bad that day.

Uncle Qiao, who was walking behind, also came with tofu and two children behind him.

"Father." Qiao Mingyong helped his father put down the burden, and the father and son worked together to take out the tofu and put it up for sale.

"Brother, brother—" Third Sister Qiao was so tired that she couldn't speak, and she kept panting.

Qiao Minglang saw that the little girl's hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her face, so he took out a washed towel and handed it over, "Wipe your sweat, are you tired from walking?" Looking at the two The child was sweating and looked exhausted, and he felt distressed again.

"elder brother."

"Well, wipe off all the sweat."

"Drink some water." Qiao Minglang handed over his drinking bottle, and there was a small place behind him. He asked the two young ones to sit here to rest, drink some water, and asked with a smile: "I know it's far away, tomorrow Are you still coming?"

Sanmei Qiao hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth resentfully, and said, "Come on!"Get used to it after a few walks.

Qiao Mingcheng's face was red, obviously from sweating as he walked all the way.

The physical strength of the children recovered quickly, and after sitting for a while, they all became energetic, and they could help watch the stalls selling things.Seeing that the two children had returned to their lively appearance, Qiao Minglang felt relieved, and didn't care about the two of them, and continued to sell his things.

"Oh, it's a good thing you're here."

The aunt who bought their fish balls yesterday came over and said happily: "Haha, brother, do you still remember aunt? Yesterday aunt bought fish balls with you and went home. Don't tell me, my grandson likes it very much. Ah, I just wondered if you would come today, but luckily you are here today."

It turned out that there was a seven or eight-year-old grandson in the aunt's family, who was very picky eater. He usually refused to eat a bite of fish. He also refused to eat a meal like a chicken pecking at it. .Children will lose weight if they don’t eat, and they will get sick easily if they are not in good health. The whole family is stupid to let the children eat more food.

Unexpectedly, she bought fish balls and went back yesterday. Her grandson ate a bowl of fish balls and a bowl of rice, which made the whole family happy.

The cooked fish balls were finished yesterday, but my grandson was still clamoring to eat them, so my aunt promised her grandson to buy them again today, so I went out early today, found this place, and saw that the stall selling fish balls was still here, with a serious expression on her face. smiled happily.

"I remember, of course I remember. Auntie, how many fish balls do you want today? Our fish balls today were just made this morning, and they are very fresh." Qiao Minglang remembers this old lady. He has a good memory. People who have met once will basically have a little impression.

As long as there is anyone who has bought something from him, he will not forget.

The aunt said: "It's still half a catty."

Fish balls are expensive, and she is reluctant to buy too many fish balls. Buying half a catty of fish balls is like spending a catty of pork. It is expensive, and grandchildren and grandmas with bad teeth can eat it. Go up a few.

"Okay, half a catty of fish balls." Qiao Minglang made half a catty of fish balls for the aunt, and added two more, and said with a smile: "We will set up a stall here. If you want to buy fish balls, aunt, just come Come find us here."

Seeing that there was tofu on the side, the aunt asked for a piece of tofu, knowing that it was from their family.

"Okay." After giving the money and taking the things, the aunt replied with a smile, and went to buy vegetables elsewhere with the vegetable basket.

"Brother, you are so amazing." Sanmei Qiao was here for a while, seeing that her brother had been selling things and sold so many things, she looked at her brother with admiration.Qiao Minglang smiled, he didn't feel that selling something was so powerful, and asked, "Would you like to try it?"

Third Sister Qiao looked surprised and asked, "Can we do it too?"

"Of course, otherwise why would I ask you to follow me. Come here and I'll tell you how to sell these things. Next time someone comes to ask, you can tell them." Qiao Minglang told the two children the selling price of the things, Teach them how to sell things.

No one is born to do business, these are learned little by little the day after tomorrow.

Qiao Minglang intends to train the two children to do business, so that they can learn how to make money, so that they know how hard it is to make money, and they don't spend money lavishly.When I grow up, no matter what I do, I can have a way to make a living.

"Remember the price?"

"remember."

After speaking clearly, Qiao Minglang asked the two children to come forward to help sell things.

Third Sister Qiao is very interested in making money. After getting familiar with it, she dared to shout, "Sell fish balls, delicious fish balls."

Seeing the big brothers and big sisters, they shouted happily one by one, and asked people if they wanted to buy their things.At first, the little girl was a little discouraged when she saw no one was buying from them, but when someone bought their things, the little girl beamed with joy.

Everyone in the Qiao family looks pretty good, the little girl has straight eyebrows, big and bright eyes, she just goes out to bask in the sun all day, plus she has nothing to eat, she is thin, she looks dark and thin .At first glance, it seems ordinary, but if you look at it twice, the little girl is still very attractive.

But among the brothers and sisters in the family, Qiao Minglang still had the best looks.

He also came out to bask in the sun every day, his skin was as white as if he hadn't been tanned, and he wore white clothes that were washed neatly on his body, standing there like a small green bamboo, which made people feel His eyes fell on him unconsciously.The young man smiled when he saw people, and made people feel very comfortable. People who passed by their small stall would look at them.

Especially those aunts and elder sisters who like to buy things from them, who doesn't like a child who looks clean and well-behaved.

"Thank you, ma'am, go slowly, ma'am, come buy it from us tomorrow if it's delicious."

"well."

Now it's Qiao Sanmei who sells things. Every time she sells an item and gets a penny, the smile on her face will become brighter and her mouth will be sweeter.In comparison, Qiao Xiaosi is not as good as her sister.

Qiao Mingcheng usually played wildly behind his sister, but when he came out to strangers, he closed his mouth like a clam, and refused to open it no matter what.

During the brief time with the children in the family, Qiao Minglang had a little understanding of the characters of the children in the family. He knew that this younger brother was reserved and shy, but he was also a very sensible and good boy.

Qiao Minglang is not in a hurry when it comes to doing business. The master brings him in, and the cultivation is up to the individual. In the future, it will depend on their own study and hard work. Not all people are suitable for business, and some people are indeed not suitable for it. one line.Now he is not restricting the few children in the family to do business with him when they grow up. What happens in the future depends on them.

Today is not a market day, so there are not so many people in the town.

After ten o'clock in the morning, the sun was getting hotter and hotter. They moved the stall to the eaves of other people's houses to avoid the shade, and the shopkeepers would not drive people away.

"Uncle, I'm going to look elsewhere to see if anyone buys tofu flowers."

"Okay, you go, we are here, you will come back when it is sold out."

Seeing that no one was buying tofu flowers here, Qiao Mingzhong picked tofu flowers and sold them in crowded places.At this time, people who do business are resting, and some people have money in their pockets, and they are willing to buy a bowl of tofu flowers for their children.

The vegetable market in the town is open all day, and it doesn't close until five or six in the afternoon. Generally, the time to buy the most vegetables is from eight or nine in the morning to ten in the morning.In the afternoon, it was past noon, and people didn't buy vegetables until after two o'clock in the afternoon.

At noon, there was still a little of their stuff left. Seeing that the children were hungry, Uncle Qiao went to buy some sesame seed cakes and came back. He gave some sesame seed cakes to his son and nephews and nieces, and said: " Take them all and eat, we still have something left, and we will go back when they are sold out."

He gave all the biscuits to a few small ones, but he didn't keep them.

If he was alone, he would be reluctant to buy sesame seed cakes, but he saw a few children coming along, and everyone worked hard all morning.It's fine for him to be hungry himself, and he can't let a few younger ones starve with him.

"Abba, don't you want to eat it?" Qiao Mingyong saw that his father gave them all the sesame seed cakes, but he didn't have any, so he broke the sesame seed cakes in his hand into two halves, kept the less half for himself, and the more half Give it to the father, and said with a smile on his face: "Let's share one, and you can also eat something to fill your stomach. We will have dinner when we get home."
