"Then how do you sell the rice dumplings wrapped in lotus leaves?!" Another aunt stood near the steamer and stretched her neck to ask.
"This is called glutinous rice chicken," Aunt Rong corrected her: "It is glutinous rice with sauced chicken inside. It is real glutinous rice and meat! Then it is wrapped in lotus leaves and placed in a steamer to be steamed. When eating, it is in your mouth Full of the fragrance of lotus leaves, the glutinous rice is tainted with the flavor of sauced chicken during the steaming process. It is very flavorful and meaty. If you eat one, a man will be very hungry! It costs five cents a piece."
"Ho-"
When the aunt listened to the first half, she still looked longingly and listened with rapt attention. However, when she heard the price, her eyes widened suddenly, she made a clear sound in her mouth, and then took a step back.
Then he shouted: "This is too expensive! You can buy three sesame seed cakes for five cents! A pound of yellow noodles!"
The crowd of onlookers also made a commotion again, and everyone said:
"It's really too expensive."
"Selling gold, this glutinous rice chicken doesn't look very big."
…
During the discussion, someone, whether it was a good thing or out of curiosity, also asked about the fried dumplings, "What about these fried dumplings? How to sell them? Isn't it inlaid with silver? They cost a penny each? I think they are normal dumplings. None of your family members ate it just now, so it probably tastes average, right?"
Aunt Rong glanced at the man, her eyes slightly gloomy, and she had the aggressive attitude of a woman in the village, and said, "You don't have to think so much, I've already said everything for you."
Women are not easy to mess with. Aunt Rong is a bit powerful. The man shut up in a sarcastic tone, obviously troublesome.
Aunt Rong added: "Twelve fried dumplings for ten cents, six for six cents, and you can add secret chili sauce for free."
Sure enough, there was another gasp.
"Oh my god, my god, this stall is incredible, everything is so expensive."
"The big steamed dumplings next door, with pork and green onions, only cost five cents for ten. These are silver-encrusted dumplings."
Someone in the crowd said: "The fragrance is indeed very fragrant, and the food looks fresh, but it is really too expensive."
"Yeah," a mean-looking sister-in-law raised her eyes and shouted coldly: "It's so expensive to sell things, don't you have any brains? Who would buy it? I want to see the food with such a high price. , who will pay for it!”
"It's just home-made chili sauce, and it's made in secret?! How can you poor people have any secret recipe?"
Some people have already made unpleasant remarks. I don’t know if they are dissatisfied with the price or because they feel unreasonable anger at their repeated quotations.
Aunt Rong said: "When we do business, we have our own pricing and everyone has their own intentions. We will not forcefully buy or sell."
In fact, she gritted her teeth because Ye Lulu had taught her that she could not lower the price no matter what, and she could not give in when someone said it was expensive.
Aunt Rong was also very frightened. It was very difficult for a farmer to quote such a high price. What's more, although she had a sharp temper and was strong in the village, after all, she didn't go out in the mountains very much on weekdays, so she didn't dare to worry about anything. She felt very guilty for the unanimous opinions of so many people.
It was only because of Ye Lulu's repeated warnings that she gritted her teeth and remained calm.
"Now we can make raw porridge and start selling it." Aunt Rong said as if all the people watching in front of her were cheering.
As everyone knows, the men behind Brother Guan were sullen and silent. The two women, Sister-in-law Guan and Second Sister-in-law, did not dare to say anything and clenched their hands tightly, their palms were all sweaty.
