Chapter 409 Is this trying to monopolize the market?
The boy looked at Xing Rui holding a few salty radishes in her hand and asked her confusedly.
"Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"
"Is the shopkeeper here?"
"exist,"
The boy nodded quickly,
"I'll take my sister-in-law there."
The shopkeeper is a short, slightly fat, middle-aged man.
Seeing Xing Rui holding a rice bowl with a few pickled radishes in her hand, she was a little confused.
"Sir, this is my pickled salted radish, would you like to try it?"
The shopkeeper looked at the radishes in Xing Rui's bowl. Each one was cut into five-flowered knives.
But the whole radish was not cut open, and the top of the radish was also connected together.
Everyone is familiar with pickled radish, but this was the first time for the shopkeeper to see this pickled radish cut with a knife.
"Okay, let me try it and bring you a pair of chopsticks."
The boy ran to get the chopsticks. The shopkeeper looked at the salted radish in Xing Rui's hand, still a little suspicious. What's so delicious about a pickle?
When the chopsticks were brought over, the shopkeeper stretched out his hand and picked up a large pickle. Before the pickle entered his mouth, an indescribable taste passed through his nose.
"Um?"
The shopkeeper has been cooking for most of his life. He will know whether this food is delicious or not as soon as he smells it.
It tasted good. He opened his mouth and took a bite. He thought it would be very salty, but he was surprised again.
"Your pickles are not ordinary, they are not the kind that are so salty that they choke your throat.
The radish is crispy and refreshing, so you won’t feel salty even if you eat it with an empty mouth, eh?”
The shopkeeper took another big sip of the medicine, and this time he took it very carefully.
"There are garlic, sugar and other things in it?"
The shopkeeper clicked his mouth a few times unwillingly, but in the end he still couldn't taste what it tasted like, so he looked at Xing Rui sheepishly.
"What did you put in this? I've been cooking for a lifetime, but I really haven't tasted it."
Xing Ruixin said, "Of course you can't eat it. You don't have the chili noodles, but you still found the others."
There are apples and pears on the table in my office, and I also found Thirteen Incense and Chicken Essence Powder in my sister’s house in the Northeast.
Coupled with the skills I learned from my grandma, it’s no wonder that these pickles are not delicious.
"It's all stuff from the mountains. I added some randomly. What do you think of the taste, shopkeeper? Can it be sold?"
How smart the shopkeeper is, but people don't tell them because they don't want to tell others about this recipe and their business will be robbed.
"Yes, I can sell it. I'll take whatever you bring."
Xing Rui laughed when she heard this and hurriedly turned back to the car to get a jar of salted radish.
"I have a lot of pickled food at home. If you like it, I can bring you some more jars tomorrow?"
"Okay, you can take as much as you want, but we have agreed that your pickles can only be provided to our restaurant, and money is not an issue."
Is this to monopolize the market? Xing Rui laughed.
"Shopkeeper, this is just a pickle. You can't keep it even if you ask for so much."
"Don't worry, little lady, I have a cellar at home. It's no problem if I put it anywhere. Just send it to me."
When Xing Rui saw that everyone had said this, she still looked like she didn't care about money, so she simply sent it to him for the sake of convenience.
"I'll help you get it to the back."
The shopkeeper hurriedly called the waiter over.
"Come here, move it in, and pour this jar out for the little woman."
"yes,"
The boy hurriedly took the jar from Xing Rui's hand and walked quickly towards the kitchen stove at the back. At this time, Liang Sheng also finished unloading the cabbage in the car.
"How about I give you two hundred coins for a jar of pickles?"
Two hundred coins? Well, two hundred coins for a jar of salted radish is quite a lot.
You can earn twenty pence for a day's work, and a jar of salted radish is two hundred pence. This is a good amount of money.
"Okay, just do as the shopkeeper says."
The shopkeeper didn't mess around, he turned around and went inside to get the money. After a while, he walked out with a bunch of money.
"I'll give you two hundred cash for today's food. Plus the money for pickles, there's a total of four hundred cash here. Take it."
Xing Rui put it away, and the boy inside ran out holding the jar of pickles.
When Liang Sheng saw it, he hurriedly went up to take the jar. The two of them were about to turn around and say goodbye when Xing Rui suddenly looked at the boy and was stunned.
Just look at the shoulders of the young boy's gray coat, and there are a few pieces of scarlet stuff stuck to it.
Xing Rui walked over, but the boy didn't know what happened and stood there fixedly, not daring to move.
Seeing Xing Rui reach out to his shoulders and take out the scarlet things, put them under the nose and smell them, Xing Rui smiled.
"Do you have red peppers here?"
As soon as these words came out, not only the boy was confused, but even the shopkeeper looked at Xing Rui with a confused face, not knowing what she was talking about.
"This, this is it."
Xing Rui handed the chili flakes in his hand to the two people. The boy smiled when he saw what Xing Rui had in his hand.
"You said this, isn't this a red lantern? It's very spicy and very expensive.
But my shopkeeper’s stir-fried dishes are put in it, and everyone loves to eat it.”
Red lanterns? It turns out that chili peppers here are called red lanterns!
"Where can I buy this red lantern?"
Xing Rui couldn't suppress the surprise in her heart and asked,
"Over there at the state capital, do you want the little lady?"
The shopkeeper saw the light in Xing Rui's eyes and asked her hurriedly.
"Yes, I want to buy some. Can the shopkeeper buy some for me?"
"That's no problem, it's just that this thing is very expensive. Do you really want it?"
The shopkeeper had to ask Xing Rui cautiously.
"Can you tell me how much it is?"
Xing Rui felt that an opportunity had come. As long as he could buy this thing, he could grow it himself.
As long as you can grow it yourself, this thing can be grown in a large area, pepper?
Oh, if this kind of thing is planted in the mountains, there should be no animals to harm it, right?
Ha, Xing Rui laughed.
"A pound of one hundred cents."
"Okay, give me twenty pounds, and I'll bring the money to you next time."
As soon as Xing Rui said these words, the shopkeeper was startled. She didn't expect that she hadn't recovered yet.
Liang Sheng shouted over there.
"I have twenty taels of silver with me, here you go."
As he spoke, Liang Sheng took out a silver note from his waist. This was exactly the money he had left behind when he used it as a dagger.
Xing Rui took it and handed it to the middle-aged shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, I'm sorry, I have twenty pounds, when will I come to pick it up?"
"Next month, next month I will go to the state capital to buy some supplies, and I will also buy some red lanterns."
"Okay, I'll pick it up when the time comes."
As I was talking, I heard a young boy running over from outside in a panic.
"Shopkeeper, please go and have a look. Liu Laizi got a horse that is so skinny that it's about to die, and he came here to pay the bill."
"You bastard, you've been eating for several years and you haven't seen a big guy. Are you trying to default on your debt? Come on, go over and have a look."
The shopkeeper flicked his sleeves as if he was very annoyed, took out his short legs and walked outside.
Xing Rui and Liang Sheng looked at each other and followed them out.
