Dr. Zhang touched his wallet and was about to cry in frustration.
Because he only had a savings of 17,000 yuan and couldn't even get enough tea to make a couple, so why did he have the nerve to bring it up to Jingjing's house?
But……
But there is no other way!
One pound of tea, two bottles of honey, and five thousand yuan left may not be enough for next month's living expenses and mortgage payment.
Song Tan also took out the pound of half-damaged cabbage and smiled like a profiteer: "Doctor Zhang, do you want this cabbage?"
Zhang Yuan glanced at her and finally confirmed: "Free?"
Seeing Song Tan nodding, he also firmly agreed: "Yes!"
He turned around and took the handful of green vegetables and turned into a side alley. After walking a few steps, he handed it to the boss selling rice noodles:
"Boss, a bowl of rice noodles and some green vegetables."
boss:……
The two looked at each other.
a long time.
The boss took the piece of braised cabbage from him with a complex expression: "Young man, you know how to live."
"I have been selling rice noodles here for decades. In the past, everyone was not well off. If I wanted to add eggs, I would bring them from home."
"I didn't expect that life is getting better now. There are people who bring their own vegetables - young man, you haven't collected or washed the vegetables. If you add more vegetables, you will have to pay two yuan for processing fee."
"Before I say it, I'm not a profiteer. If you bring your own eggs, I won't charge you."
Two dollars?!
Two yuan is almost enough to buy a handful of Chinese cabbage!
Dr. Zhang Yuan felt the pain of poverty, but he couldn't give away the vegetable leaves now, so he had to grit his teeth:
"Two dollars is two dollars!"
snort.
He thought to himself: My cabbage is worth twenty!
The boss's movements were quick. At this moment, he tore off the straw rope on the outside of the cabbage, and without any pain, he tore off the leaves that were squeezed into the outside.
Then he grabbed the root of the cabbage and twisted it hard. Kachacha's voice sounded one after another, and the heads of the cabbage were all cut off.
This action made Dr. Zhang's eyelids jump, but he held back and remained silent.
Then, the boss gently rinsed the cabbage leaves into a basin for adding water - the originally clean cabbage became more and more juicy.
This dish is pretty good.
This thought flashed through the boss's mind, and then he was thrown into the pot.
The hot water slowly softens the green vegetable leaves, and the rich and crisp freshness unique to green vegetables slowly spreads, making his salty rice noodles even more unique...
Zhang Yuan touched his belly and finally felt a little bit of comfort.
At this time, several people had gathered in front of the stall. Everyone stared at the cabbage in the pot: "Boss, add that many green vegetables for me."
"I want it too! It smells delicious."
"I want it too, I want it too."
Now it was the boss's turn to be stunned.
"Then what..."
He quickly scooped up the green vegetables and rice noodles and handed them to Zhang Yuan who was standing aside, and then explained: "This is not my cabbage, this is what I brought myself. My cabbage is like this -"
It was inevitable that his reputation would be ruined, so he ruined it himself at this moment.
I just grabbed a handful of green vegetables that I had prepared in advance, rinsed them for a few times and then took them out.
The green is still emerald green, and the jade-white pole is still the same, but the unique moist and crisp aroma of green vegetables is gone.
The boss was helpless: "Now... do you still want it?"
Everyone:......
The contrast between the two sides was so severe that they instantly lost their appetite. However, just when everyone was about to refuse, Zhang Yuan stirred the hot rice noodles with a tachyon, causing the green vegetable leaves inside to tumble.
What else is there to say? This is just like eating rice noodles with a knife on your neck!
Everyone said bitterly: "Yes!"
There were four people sitting around the simple small square table. Three of them stared at their bowls with bitterness. Only Zhang Yuan was snoring while eating. He felt that the money he had just spent was not so heartbreaking.
Until then, a big spoon suddenly stuck out in front of me, with a poached egg in it.
He was startled, and when he raised his head, he saw the boss's smile turned into a chrysanthemum:
"Brother, I just want to know where you bought this cabbage?"
Although it was just a poached egg, Zhang Yuan only felt satisfied, so he pointed to the entrance of the alley: "There is an empty pickup truck turning left in front of you, that is the vegetable seller."
okay!
The boss hurriedly handed the spoon to his wife, and then ran out of the alley.
Behind him, there were several diners who were carefully carrying bowls of rice noodles - this cabbage is so delicious, you can't go wrong by buying two more kilograms to take home, right?
And in the vegetable market.
Before Zhang Yanping returned from delivering the cart, Song Tan and Qiao Qiao stacked all the empty baskets on the roadside and put away the benches.
Look at the honey and tea leaves piled on the back seat——
Alas, I was so busy selling vegetables that I had no time to promote my new peach nectar...
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw several people standing in front of me shouting: "Hello, is the cabbage seller here?"
Song Tan didn't even raise his head: "It's too late, it's gone."
It's only around eight o'clock. What kind of vegetables are sold out now? The quantity is too small.
The shop owner was about to open his mouth when he saw Zhang Yanping was far away and came back with a pile of empty baskets:
"Tan Tan, the sick person asked us when we will come next time. The food we brought today is still short. Next time we can lift two thousand catties."
Song Tan couldn't help but feel depressed: "Brother Yanping, how much can my pickup truck hold in total?"
The maximum carrying capacity is only 1,500 kilograms. With the weight of the three of them, a thousand kilograms is already the limit.
Zhang Yanping was also very regretful: This is a treasure mountain in vain, but there is no way to pick up the money. How depressing it is!
Fortunately, they saw the vast market in Ningcheng. One thousand kilograms of cabbage was sold out, which is equivalent to getting 20,000 yuan in one morning!
He instantly beamed: "Tan Tan, if you can't, just buy another pickup truck and I'll drive it. I guess it will sell for another thousand pounds!"
Listen, listen!
Is this human language?
This is a residential vegetable market, not a vegetable wholesale base. How delicious is the Chinese cabbage that it is sold out at this point?
It's only around eight o'clock now, and the vegetable market is at its busiest. A thousand kilograms of vegetables have been hauled in and it's not enough to sell?
The rice noodle boss next to him was in disbelief and thought it was understandable. After all, the green vegetables smelled really good. But he couldn't bear to catch up and asked: "Girl, do you come here to sell vegetables every day?"
Qiao Qiao quickly shook her head and said loudly: "No, no, we came to the amusement park, so we bought groceries on the way."
The vegetable vendors who were holding on to three yuan and a half a pound of cabbage but unable to sell it all breathed a sigh of relief.
It's not enough to come every day, otherwise they might as well set up the stall themselves.
