Imperial capital, Wanhe Garden.
Lu Chuan placed the order and breathed a sigh of relief:
"Mom, next time someone sends you something, don't accept it."
We met in the hospital because of a bowl of dumplings, and we were not actually very close. However, when the other party saw that I was discharged from the hospital, he even gave me an extra piece of aged ham.
From the other person's perspective, he probably felt bad after eating so many delicious foods in the hospital, so he sent a gift as a token of his appreciation.
After all, Ren'ai is a nominal cooperative affiliated hospital of a famous tertiary hospital in the capital. Due to the many restrictions on medical insurance, those who are admitted there are basically people with good money.
A piece of ham may not be worth mentioning to the other party.
But Lu Jing, who was buying ham, couldn't help but calculate the price...
This, this is just a few dumplings. People have already brought large and small bags of nutritional supplements to the hospital. Why are they still being given away as gifts
Isn't it obvious that they are taking advantage
Lu Jing had no choice but to return the gift and took over a box of tea that Song Tan had sent over.
The front side sent ham, and the other side immediately gave a gift of equal value in return. It was obvious that they didn't want to have a close relationship.
However.
now.
On the kitchen floor, in a large transparent plastic bag, a whole lamb that had been cleaned neatly was lying there awkwardly, its red and white meat looking exceptionally fresh.
That’s right, they sent gifts again.
Lu Jing was also helpless: "I don't want to pick him up either. He drove me directly to the gate of the community today. I can't just leave him there."
"It's called Yanchi Beach Sheep, and it doesn't smell fishy at all. A friend drove it directly back from there... He specially gave one to us."
Xiacheng's beach sheep are well-known throughout the country, and Lu Jing had no choice but to bring them over because she couldn't refuse.
"I'm still at work. It's hard to cut bones from a whole sheep. You should do it. You're more talented at cooking than mom."
It was just for this sheep that I placed an order for so many vegetables and honey. On the one hand, I wanted to keep some for my own family, and on the other hand, I wanted to give them a return gift.
The other party's sincerity was so obvious that it would be inappropriate for them to be polite to each other. Besides, Lu Chuan looked at the other party with clear eyes, so he should be a good person. There was no need to reject him.
Thinking about it this way, I feel much more at ease.
This time, it’s just a return gift between friends, so mostly vegetables.
The mother and son stared at the bag of mutton and thought about lunch together.
Braised lamb chops? Grilled lamb legs? Lamb offal pot? Lamb stewed with carrots
Suck it!
Meanwhile, in Huo Xueying's company, the entire office was filled with complaints:
"I haven't bought it yet, how come it's gone?"
"That's right! I was just hesitant for a moment. Aren't they really just swiping the order themselves?"
Sister Lan's annoyance was written all over her face, but the fat guy next to her seemed to have gotten a great bargain:
“Hey, I bought it.”
At this point, no one cared about whether they were familiar with each other or whether there was a discount. They all looked up Song Tan's WeChat ID from their address books and asked anxiously:
"Song Tan, why is your honey sold out? Are you replenishing the stock? I'm planning to buy a bottle too."
Little did he know that in Yuncheng, Song Tan looked at the twenty jars of honey in front of him and asked Qiao Qiao, "Is it really gone?"
"No more," Qiao Qiao counted on her fingers.
"Sister, you sent out all the more than 40 jars of honey you had before. Later, Qiao Qiao went to the mountain to shake it again, but it wasn't ready yet, so these are all I have."
There is no stock, so there is no rush. She had to reply one by one:
Sorry, there aren't many left, and they're all sold out. You'll have to wait at least a week for the next batch.
Peach blossoms and golden cherries are blooming in competition, and the bees have to slowly make honey after collecting the nectar. Everything is left to time.
In short, as long as there are no large orders, we can barely keep up with sales.
After hearing what Song Tan said, Sister Ke Lan felt so regretful.
Don't think that he was picking on the high price and not being a big brand. As the old saying goes, "The picky ones are the ones who buy."
Sister Lan has actually made up her mind that as long as she struggles for a certain period of time, she will definitely pay!
Now, both my mind and my wallet are ready, but the stock is gone.
It's obvious from what they said that it will take at least a week for the goods to be available... So how are they going to get through this week
In the past, when honey was placed in front of people, they might not think of drinking it. But now, after experiencing its effects, who would be willing not to enjoy it
After this dilemma, the people who had been reluctant to place the order because of the one thousand yuan cost became even more annoyed.
Sister Lan felt like she had no money to spend. She refreshed the page angrily and was surprised to find that—
The stock of the top-notch Chinese cabbage is also decreasing rapidly!
At the beginning, 180 copies were sold. How long has it been? 314 copies have been sold!
Outrageous!
Can this pakchoi that costs twenty yuan per pound be as fresh as that from the vegetable market even if it is shipped in ice
So what
A vegetable has to be sent from afar for dozens of dollars by express delivery. And there is a pot of onion, ginger and garlic on her balcony, and it is so expensive? !
Of course, Lan wasn’t the only one mumbling this in the office, but everyone kept refreshing their phones while mumbling.
Pull down to release, pull down to release.
In just half an hour, all the bok choy were sold out.
The page turned gray, and then moved to the last position, competing with that person for the honey that was out of his reach.
Everyone was completely speechless, because the entire group buying page only had onions, garlic, nepeta and tea leaves...
How to say it
No one wants to be a fool.
Traveling thousands of miles and spending a lot of money to buy vegetables that are readily available in the market sounds like a fool with a lot of money.
but…
“How come this shallot is sold out?!
”
Sister Lan raised her voice instantly, and then openly called out to the male colleague she cherished in the department:
"Hurry, hurry! Is there anyone who wants to buy Nepeta? Come and get some with me!"
…
And in Cloud City.
The engineering team that had taken over was conducting an on-site inspection in front of and behind the house. Song Tan moved the dishes that his seventh cousin had prepared from the back truck, and then he took a break from his busy schedule:
"Hey, I found a small app that is much more convenient. I sell a lot of vegetables early in the morning."
After she finished mumbling, she saw three little dogs that had been playing in the fields and rolling on the hillside coming up to her again, whining and moaning. Only then did she react -
"Hey, where are Wu Lei and his girlfriend?"
Wulan and Aunt Lianhua were fiddling with the meat dishes in front of them. The novelty had worn off by now, and they didn't even raise their heads when they heard the words:
"She went to the back mountain, saying she wanted to see the peach blossoms. Oh, by the way, when Lili went out, she was carrying a very large silver-white tablet and a very tall mobile phone holder..."
Wulan is also a veteran vibrato enthusiast. She muttered, "Is she going to shoot a vibrato video?"
