Chapter 40 If I buy it, wouldn't I be stupid?

Chapter 40 Wouldn’t I be stupid if I bought it?

Railway Station Square.

Early in the morning, Lu Xiu and a group of people pushed a tricycle filled with tea eggs toward the square, talking and laughing.

"Brother Xu, it was your idea. Now we are the only ones selling tea eggs in the whole square." A young man wearing a big hat said to the bearded man in a flattering manner.

"Yeah, don't underestimate these tea eggs. Ever since we learned Lao Zhangtou's trick of buying eggs and giving them away, I can sell thousands of eggs a day and earn as little as a hundred!" The fat lady on the side also said

He started shouting.

"If it weren't for Brother Xu, where would we find such a good thing?"

Hearing the compliments from several people around him, the bearded smile felt particularly proud and satisfied.

"Don't worry, if I follow you Brother Xu, everyone will have meat to eat!"

As they talked, the group dispersed and set up tea egg stalls around the square.

Today is the weekend, and there are a lot of people in the square. After a while, several passers-by came to buy eggs in front of their stall, and the bearded people and others were laughing so hard that they couldn't close their mouths from ear to ear.

While collecting the money, the young man with a big hat suddenly said curiously.

"Brother Xu, do you think that old Zhangtou will still come here to sell eggs today?"

"How is that possible?" The bearded lady had not yet spoken, but the fat lady not far away raised her voice.

"That old immortal dared to go against our brother Xu, but he didn't run away in despair in the end. How dare he come back here to seek death again today!"

Hearing this, the bearded man nodded disdainfully and said firmly.

"Just rest assured, Lao Zhangtou will never dare to come here to sell eggs!"

"Brother Xu has the final say in this square! This guy was scared to death by your Brother Xu yesterday. How could he dare to appear in front of me?"

With that said, the bearded man dropped his cigarette butt and said confidently, "Huh, if he dares to show up, I can twist off his head for you and even put it in a urinal."

"I……"

But just in the middle of his words, when the bearded man turned his head inadvertently, he immediately stayed where he was as if he had seen a ghost.

"You, why are you here?"

"Hey, you're here to sell tea eggs so early?" Yang Jianguang smiled, parked the tricycle in the open space, and greeted the bearded man enthusiastically. Those who didn't know it thought they had such a good relationship.

"Xu...Brother Xu, didn't you say they didn't dare to come?" The young man with a big cap reminded him in a low voice.

Hearing this, the beard was so embarrassing, he glared at Big Blocker fiercely, and then looked at Yang Jianguang and Mr. Tea Egg angrily.

"Things that don't know whether to live or die!"

"Today I will tell you not to sell a single egg!"

"Da Mao, Zhang Mei, and Xiao Wu all come over to me!"

Following Beard's order, several three-wheeled bicycles selling tea eggs also gathered towards Yang Jianguang's stall, blocking most of the uncle's stall from all four directions.

Before Yang Jianguang could react, a steady stream of trumpets sounded from all around.

"Tea eggs are 2 cents each, everyone is 2 cents each, buy two and get one free!"

At the same time, Yang Jianguang helped the uncle set up the stall, burned the stove, and put in the eggs that he had boiled in the morning.

After doing all this, Uncle Zhang took a loudspeaker and shouted towards the surroundings.

"Tea eggs, tea eggs cost 20 cents."

Hearing this, a sneer flashed in his bearded eyes.

Scream, shout, if you dare to steal business from me, you will be in despair later!

Sure enough, although the flow of people in the square is not low, it is because of the bearded people and stalls blocking the surrounding four directions.

More than ten minutes passed. Even though Yang Jianguang and others sold their eggs at the same price, few customers from around came to them to buy eggs.

When a business came to the door, the uncle was obviously a little anxious and uneasy, but Yang Jianguang was still concentrating on tinkering with the uncle's stove.

The biggest drawback of this old-fashioned earthen stove is that no matter how much firewood is added, the fire is not big. So until now, the pot with tea eggs has not boiled and the fragrance has not been released.

On the other side, the bearded man who had already sold nearly twenty eggs smiled very happily when he saw this.

"Boy, you haven't sold a single tea egg so early in the morning. How dare you try to steal business from us without knowing your ability?" The fat lady put her hands on her hips, looking so arrogant.

Upon hearing this, the bearded man laughed unscrupulously, "You're still selling these broken eggs for two cents. I advise you to change the price quickly, otherwise I'm afraid you won't be able to sell any of them today!"

After talking nonsense, Yang Jianguang glanced back and saw that the water in the pot was gradually boiling and the fragrance gradually appeared. He actually nodded in agreement. "You are right, this price is indeed not suitable."

As he said that, he strode to the tricycle and added a cross on the cardboard that said "tea eggs are two cents each".

Yang Jianguang's strange behavior made the bearded man stunned for a moment. He soon fell forward and backward with laughter, unable to straighten his back.

"Hahahahaha... You can't sell it for two cents, but you actually sell it for thirty cents each?"

Seeing this, the fat eldest sister Zhang Mei and others also started laughing.

"What the hell, it's only three cents! Are you out of your mind because we're so angry?"

"Hahahahaha, this guy is crazy. We sell them for 20 cents each. How can he have the confidence to sell them for 30 cents?"

"If someone buys your tea eggs today, I will drink the soup in which the tea eggs are boiled." The bearded man patted his chest and vowed,

Faced with the bearded man's ridicule, Yang Jianguang didn't seem to care. Instead, he picked up the tweeter and shouted confidently.

“Excellent tea eggs cost only 30 cents each! Don’t wait until they are out of season! Don’t wait until they are out of season!”

The sound of the trumpet immediately spread throughout half of the square, attracting the attention of passers-by.

Listening to Yang Jianguang's trumpet, pedestrians in the square compared their eggs with beards and immediately pointed at Yang Jianguang.

"This young man has such a dark heart. When others sell it for 20 cents, he actually sells it for 30 cents!"

"It's not too late. If someone buys his tea eggs today, there will be trouble!"

"You're right, I won't buy theirs. They are all tea eggs. What's so special about them? Can eating them make me an immortal?"

In fact, the price of tea eggs is only 30 cents, which is not too expensive. However, compared with the price of Luo Xihu, Yang Jianguang’s price of 30 cents per piece is very surprising.

Looking at Yang Jianguang's stubborn look, and then at the pedestrians gathered around him, the bearded man suddenly realized something.

He knew that Yang Jianguang did it on purpose!

He deliberately raised the price to attract pedestrians around him.

Of course, what he did was indeed successful, and it did attract people. The flow of people was much higher than normal.

What a pity~ The bearded man shook his head mockingly, showing his eyes that saw through everything.

Have you ever heard of a saying called making wedding clothes for others?

You shouted the price so high to attract people, but unfortunately in the end, all they bought were his bearded tea eggs!

On the other side, when he heard the pointing and accusing voices from the people around him, the uncle became a little panicked.

Although I tried tea eggs with sugar last night, the delicious feeling far surpassed the previous tea eggs.

But the price is so high, and what if the customer doesn’t like the food?

Thinking of this, Uncle Zhang felt even more uncertain. He tugged on Yang Jianguang's clothes and whispered, "Jianguang, everyone has objections to the price. Otherwise, let's change the price back."

Just after hearing the uncle's persuasion, Yang Jianguang still stubbornly shook his head, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhang, things are rare and valuable, and those who know the goods will naturally come to buy our tea eggs."

Hearing this, the sarcasm on the bearded face became even more intense.

It's time for this.

Are you still holding on?

Yang Jianguang, Yang Jianguang, you are not worthy of playing tricks with me!

Thinking of this, the corners of the beard's mouth raised, and he raised his voice and said, "It is said that rare things are valuable. We must be honest when selling things. Young man, you are cheating people by selling them at such a high price. I think only fools will come to buy from you today.

Tea eggs!”

As soon as Luo Xihu said this, he immediately received responses from the surrounding audience.

"The boss said it well, we should boycott such unscrupulous businesses!"

"Broken tea eggs sell for 30 cents each, why don't you go and grab them!"

"Don't worry, I will never buy it today!"

Even an old man with a beard who was standing in front of a stall preparing to buy tea eggs nodded in agreement, "The boss is right, this is too dark. A tea egg costs 30 cents a piece. If I buy it,

Then am I not stupid?"

But as soon as the uncle finished speaking, he suddenly sniffed and said doubtfully, "This...what does it smell like? Why does it have a different fragrance?"

"And the direction of this fragrance seems to be..."

Having said this, the uncle suddenly raised his head and looked towards Yang Jianguang's stall.

On the stall, the stove was burning brightly, the water in the pot was boiling, and the golden tea eggs with clear veins were particularly eye-catching.

The uncle's sudden change made the bearded smile freeze a bit.

Especially the direction of the uncle's gaze made the bearded man's heart suddenly tremble, and he felt a bad pre-cold.

"How is that possible? Brother, you smelled it wrong. Don't these tea eggs all have the same smell?"

"If you don't believe it, come and try my tea eggs. Is it the fragrance here..." Luo Xi said, taking out a tea egg from his pot and holding it in front of the uncle.

But before Luo Xi finished talking, he was pushed away by the uncle.

"Yes, that's where the fragrance comes from." The uncle stared at the stall in front of Yang Jianguang and trotted over.

"Boss, let me try one of your tea eggs!"

"Okay." Yang Jianguang nodded, took out a tea egg with a perfectly broken shell, wrapped it in a plastic bag and handed it over.

Seeing the uncle excitedly holding Yang Jianguang's tea eggs, the bearded man suddenly became anxious, "Didn't you just say that you were a fool to buy his tea eggs? You..."

But the uncle didn't have time to trim his beard at all. After peeling the skin, he held the tea eggs and wolfed them down.

While eating, he hesitated and said, "It's delicious, it's so delicious. I've never eaten such delicious tea eggs!"

Before he could swallow the food in his mouth, the uncle stretched out his hand anxiously, "Boss, give me one, oh no, three tea eggs!"

Seeing the uncle eating one bite at a time and eating so deliciously, the crowd who had just pointed at Yang Jianguang were stunned.

At the same time, the tea eggs in Yang Jianguang's stall gradually boiled, and a scent that was completely different from the tea eggs in other stalls began to flow into everyone's noses.

Inexplicably, everyone suddenly swallowed their saliva and looked at the tea eggs on Yang Jianguang's stall.

It can be said that the Chinese are the most persistent nation for eating!

For example, when a certain disease is raging, other industries are affected to a certain extent, but only the food-related industries stand out.

For example, invasive species are gradually eaten into crayfish that require large-scale farming to supply.

For example, the Fukian people in Guangzhou speak for themselves...

The Chinese people’s persistence and love for food are something that people from other countries cannot understand.

So before, everyone still criticized Yang Jianguang as a shady businessman who sells goods at high prices. When they saw that the uncle was eating so well, everyone's views were immediately and unceremoniously shaken.

Seeing the people in front of him who were about to move, his beard became anxious and he shouted in a panic.

"Don't believe how delicious tea eggs can be. This guy must have been the one to trick you and deliberately deceive you!"

"Yes," the fat eldest sister also shouted anxiously. "Don't be fooled, they are just tea eggs. What's so great about them? Be obedient, we won't eat them!"

The bearded man and others were struggling to appeal. On the other side, four tea eggs were eaten in succession, and the uncle burped with satisfaction.

He took out a picture worth five yuan and asked with a satisfied look on his face. "It's so delicious. Give me ten of them. I want to pack them up!"

But Yang Jianguang replied without raising his head while boiling tea eggs.

"Not enough cooking today."

"Each person is limited to purchasing five. Any more will not be sold."

Purchase limit?

As soon as this thought came out, everyone stared at him.

I don't know who took the lead and rushed towards Yang Jianguang's stall. Suddenly, a group of spectators behind him suddenly crowded towards the stall.

Seeing this, his beard became anxious. He opened his hands to everyone with red eyes and shouted hoarsely.

"If you want to buy tea eggs, you have to step on me first... uh, uh, uh, uh..."
