The first wave of customers were a young couple with a seven or eight-year-old boy. The boy pointed to a fist-sized red pomegranate and shouted excitedly: "Mom, Mom, I like to eat pomegranates! These pomegranates are so big.
Bigger than any pomegranate I’ve ever seen before!”
When city people travel to the countryside, they tend to have a sense of superiority. Seeing that her son likes it, the mother asked, "Children, how do you sell these pomegranates?"
"My uncle said that everything here costs ten yuan a pound." Tongtong lowered his head with some guilt and quoted a price to face his first wave of customers.
"What? Ten yuan a pound? It's more expensive than the supermarket! This kid has learned how to rip off customers at such a young age! Come on, let's buy it from other places. If we have money, we will throw it into the river and we won't give it to these black-hearted little liars.
"The young mother said, pulling the child and walking forward angrily.
The child's father was in a relatively stable mood and said slightly dissatisfied: "Children, the pomegranates in the supermarket are only seven or eight yuan a pound, and the pomegranates in the town only sell for five yuan. You sell them for ten yuan, but no one is willing to buy them. The pomegranates are just
That’s all, the difference is not big. How can such a small watermelon from the garden be sold for ten yuan per catty?”
Tongtong blushed with embarrassment and pouted and said: "My uncle said that our vegetables and fruits are delicious and of good quality, which is why they are so expensive. Moreover, fruits and watermelons usually sell for one hundred and one catty.
We set up a stall today and my uncle agreed to lower the price."
"What? One hundred and one pounds in normal times? Do you think we are fools?" The child's father was no longer calm. He asked in a sharp voice, turned around and left.
However, when I walked to Maomao's stall, I asked about the price out of curiosity, and the answer I got was similar, except that "uncle" was changed to "uncle".
After the wave of customers left, the two children looked at each other and saw guilt and uneasiness in each other's eyes.
The second wave of customers were two men, two women, and four elderly people. Their clothes and temperaments were extraordinary. They had fair hair and young faces, and were well maintained. They either held professional cameras or lightweight camera phones in their hands, and they were very playful.
"Haha, little doll, what are you selling? Is it delicious?" A kind old lady bent over and stood in front of Tongtong's stall and asked in a funny way.
"Hello, grandma, everything on display here is for sale, but the price is very expensive." Tongtong calmed down and answered very politely with his little head held high.
When the old woman heard this, she became even more curious and asked with a smile: "Oh? How expensive is it? Is it possible that ordinary fruits and vegetables can be sold at gold prices?"
"My uncle asked me to sell like this, and said that the price is too low, so we are not allowed to set up a stall. These and these all sell for ten yuan a catty." Tongtong pointed to the vegetable and fruit areas. Helplessly, he introduced the prices again.
.
"Yeah, ten yuan a pound is really not cheap. Your uncle must be a greedy man." The old woman pretended to be surprised, unlike the young couple who just said sarcastically.
"My uncle is not a greedy person. He is usually very kind." When Tongtong heard others saying bad things about Li Qingyun, he immediately became angry. He dug his mouth and said, "If you think it's expensive, I can give you a little taste, but you said
I won't be happy if uncle is not good."
As Tongtong spoke, he took out a few fresh small red dates from his small pocket. These were also produced by the mixed fruit forest behind the hillside. The dates were not big. They were long and thin, like thumbs, with pointed ends.
The three old men next to them were all smiling. Seeing Tongtong's cute expression, they took the opportunity to take a few photos of her. When they saw her extending her hand to give them a few fresh red dates to taste, they immediately accepted it with a smile.
But after putting a handful of dates into their mouths and chewing them twice, the elderly people were immediately amazed. They had never tasted such delicious dates in their entire lives. The taste was sweet, with small cores and lots of meat. No matter how you chewed them, they tasted delicious.
I was reluctant to swallow it, but there was a suction in my throat. Unknowingly, I swallowed a red date. There was only a date core left in my mouth, exuding a unique fragrance, and I was reluctant to spit it out.
"Well, it's delicious. It's really delicious. Baby, do you still have these red dates? It's ten yuan a pound, right? We bought them all." An old man said excitedly.
"Yes, if I had known that I could eat such delicious red dates in this mountain village, I would have come here from Xiaotangshan a long time ago. Children, where are the dates? Do other fruits taste equally delicious?"
Several old people talked a lot and were so enthusiastic about fruits that they almost frightened Tongtong.
After finally waiting for the elders to calm down, Tongtong said with a guilty conscience and apology: "Grandpa and grandma, I'm really sorry. There were too few red dates picked today. My uncle picked them for us to eat, and there weren't enough to sell.
Otherwise, I'll give you all the dates in my pocket."
After saying that, Tongtong pitifully took out a total of more than twenty red or green dates from his two pockets, held them in his hands, and handed them to several elderly people.
Several old people were really embarrassed to snatch the children's snacks, but the dates they tasted just now were so delicious that they couldn't bear it, so they took the dates from Tongtong's hand, and then thought in their hearts, no matter how difficult other fruits are
To eat, I have to buy some to comfort the kind little girl.
So each old man picked up an apple, a pomegranate, a small watermelon, a mountain persimmon, a big pear, an orange... He put one of each kind of fruits picked out from the fruit forest and put them into a convenient bag to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Tired of the little baby. Some people think that the small watermelon is too heavy, so they have chosen all the others, except the small watermelon.
"Okay, we still have to go shopping nearby, so we can't buy too much. Since your fruits all have the same price, we will pick one of each. Little baby, help us weigh the weight and calculate the money."
said an old man.
"Weighing, right? I know how to do this. My uncle taught me just now." When Tongtong saw that these kind old people were really buying their own "high-priced" fruits, Tongtong immediately became so excited that his face turned red and he carefully put the contents in the convenience bag.
Fruits are placed on the tray,
Pallet scales are measured in kilograms, but in rural areas, pallet scales are modulated and converted into market kilograms. The pointer points to the kilograms, so there is no need to multiply by two to convert kilograms into market kilograms.
"Grandma, you added watermelon to this, it's a bit heavy, the total is eight pounds and six taels, forget it, the total is eighty yuan." Tongtong pointed to the pointer on the pallet scale and said seriously.
The old woman smiled and said: "Haha, the little girl is so generous, so thank you. You weigh it first, and after the weighing, we all pay together."
The next step is simple. Two are more than six kilograms, and one is more than five kilograms. The extra fractions are all omitted. In fact, Tongtong can't calculate the fractions, so he makes his own decision and erases the fractions.
But how could these elderly people let the children suffer? In the end, the four of them calculated and shared 250 yuan. The old man said that this number was not pleasant, so he added a round figure and gave Tongtong 300 yuan, not allowing her to change.
After all, Tongtong was still a child. When he saw that the old man paid the money sincerely, he held up three red bills and shouted excitedly. He also showed off to the jealous Maomao next to him: "Maomao, look, I finally sold it.
, I sold it for 300 yuan at once. I have never received so much money! Haha, I will definitely win today, but don’t be sad. The worst I can do is give you two lollipops."
"Humph, I don't want it from you! This is just the beginning, and I won't give in easily." Maomao waved his fist angrily, deliberately not looking in Tongtong's direction.
The four old people left with a smile, each carrying several kilograms of fruit, which was not strenuous at all. As they walked, they said that they were going to a place with beautiful scenery, and would come down to eat some fruit and take a rest.
The next business was dull again. When customers heard that her fruit prices were only ten yuan per catty, they turned around and left. Some even had a bad temper and even cursed in a low voice. Because in the local area, ordinary people
Apples cost only two yuan per catty. Fruits like persimmons, which are poorly distributed, only sell for one yuan per catty.
It was past ten o'clock at this time. Yu Jun, the boss of Sichuan Fish King, and a fat old man in his sixties, with slicked-back hair, but the hair on their heads were sparse. The two of them were walking along the road, pointing.
They were walking and laughing while looking at the surrounding scenery. The two of them seemed to be in a good mood. There were two cars behind them, and it was so quiet that they didn't dare to notice any noise.
"We are selling fruits, fragrant and sweet fruits. All the fruits cost ten yuan a pound. They are guaranteed to be delicious. If they are not delicious, there is no charge." Maomao was anxious. In order to open the business, he actually imitated the scenes on TV.
, shouted.
The fat old man put his hands behind his back and said with an imposing smile: "Xiao Yu, you said that the folk customs in this mountain are simple and honest, but I don't think so. Look, such a big baby is only at kindergarten age.
Liar. I know the price of fruit here very well. What kind of fruit can cost ten yuan per catty? Mangoes and pomegranates in the town only cost six or seven yuan per catty."
Yu Jun looked at the vegetables and fruits in front of the two children, and said with a very mysterious smile: "Uncle Lu, I want to make a bet with you. The bet is very simple. After you taste the fruits sold by this child, I guarantee that you will feel
This price is great value. If you win, I will give you ten free coupons for Sichuan Fish King. If you lose, write a new sign for our Sichuan Fish King."
"Haha, you kid seems to be very confident." The old man surnamed Lu chatted happily with Yu Jun, and he didn't care about the bet. He smiled and said, "I can't bet with you because I lose my momentum.
"
Because there were more fruits piled in front of Maomao, the two of them went to Maomao's stall.
"Children, how about giving Grandpa a taste of an orange?" Although the old man surnamed Lu made himself smile very kindly, his aura was too fierce and put a lot of pressure on Maomao.
"Okay, okay... But if it tastes good, you have to buy it. I've been setting it up all morning and it's not open yet." Maomao complained dissatisfiedly and picked out a large yellow orange and handed it to the old man.
"Haha, you little devil, how can grandpa eat your oranges for nothing?" said the old man surnamed Lu, peeling off the orange peel, taking out a piece of orange, and put it into his mouth.
