"Sister-in-law, isn't this what we agreed on? For the first thirty people, my concubine will give an extra piece, and for the first ten people in the first thirty, I will give another one. Sister-in-law, this is already very good, and the next one will be over." For thirty people, it's only five yuan." Bei Qiu raised her voice, spreading her words to more people's ears.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, those sister-in-laws stepped forward one after another, wanting to compete for twenty places.
In a blink of an eye, the roasted pork skins were sold out.
Bei Qiu kept his word, no matter what these people said, if there were more than 30 people, they would not be given more, and five yuan would be five yuan.
The angry old sisters-in-law dragged their children away, "What to eat! So expensive! Mother will buy you a few fried eggs, which taste better than this!"
Bei Qiu chuckled and didn't stop her, but continued to do her own business.
People who have tasted it naturally thought it was good. After all, in this era, there is no such delicious sauce. Although it was a bit rough, it sold a lot, and it brought out part of it, so there are still some leftovers. At that time, Bei Qiu asked Fan Hanyi to accompany her to close the stall.
In front of the harvest stall, Bei Qiu told those who listened to the shadow puppet show that tomorrow will be the same as today, and the first 30 people will have a discount, please get in early, while stocks last.
After closing the stalls, Bei Qiu and Fan Hanyi sat quietly under the shadow play to watch the shadow puppets.
"Husband, why do you look at Bei Qiu like this?" Bei Qiu looked at the shadow puppet show, and found that the eyes beside her were hot, and when she looked over, she saw Fan Hanyi staring at her for a moment.
Fan Hanyi frowned slightly, not knowing how to answer, so he shook his head.
"My husband is thinking, why did Bei Qiu sell this pigskin like this?" Bei Qiu lowered her voice and said softly.
"Give it to Qiu'er, it's Qiu'er's business how to deal with it." Fan Hanyi stated his views straightforwardly.
Bei Qiu chuckled, and said warmly in his heart: "My husband loves Bei Qiu so much, I really don't know how to repay him."
"You and I, husband and wife." Fan Hanyi's simple four words seemed to say a thousand words.
Bei Qiu took a serious look at Fan Hanyi, stretched out her hand, and tapped the tip of his nose lightly without saying a word.
Once the play was over, the night was already dark.
People also left one after another.
Bei Qiu and Fan Hanyi helped clean up. Fan's parents and Fan's mother were also singing happily today. They hadn't opened their voices for a long time, and the two of them sang comfortably.
After returning home.
Bei Qiu called everyone together, lit the kerosene lamp, poured all the silver earned today on the table, and then took out the unsold pigskin and put it on the table, inviting Fan's parents and Fan's mother Also try something new together.
Fan's father and Fan's mother's eyes were straight.
In one night, he actually made so much money!
Bei Qiu counted one penny by one penny, and there were ninety-two cash, which was more than the two elders earned by doing handwork for five or six days. Fan's father and mother looked at the pigskin on the table, and they were even more reluctant to eat it.
"This pigskin is much more expensive than pork." Mother Fan was quite surprised.
Fan Hanyi also nodded thoughtfully, and looked at Bei Qiu with curiosity and admiration in his eyes.
Bei Qiu chuckled and said, "Both parents should try it. Bei Qiu purposely didn't sell out, so I brought it to my parents to taste. Today, my husband only ate one piece."
After finishing speaking, she picked up a piece and stuffed it into Fan Hanyi's mouth. Seeing him eat it, Bei Qiu also burst into laughter.
But Fan's father and Fan's mother stared at the bowl of pigskin, and didn't do anything, it was all money.
"Father and mother, you can eat it. When the pig skin was just copied, it was crispy and fragrant, and it was delicious when dipped in sauce. But if you sell it today, it won't have that taste. I'm afraid There are not many guests, so let's not waste it." Bei Qiu pushed the bowl towards Fan's parents and Fan's mother.
"Qiu'er is kind, let's eat." Fan Hanyi said.
The two elders glanced at each other, carefully picked up a piece, and put it in their mouths. Mother Fan's eyes narrowed, "It's really delicious!"
"Seeing that it will be the reunion moon in half a month, and the two elders are getting older. They don't earn much money by doing handwork, and it hurts the eyes. Tomorrow, Bei Qiu will teach my parents how to make this pigskin." Bei Qiu laughed.
Fan's mother frowned slightly, a little confused: "Daughter-in-law, although this pigskin makes a lot of money, it doesn't happen every year. Besides, people in other villages will do it when they see that we sell well. It won't last long."
Bei Qiu understood Fan's father and Fan's mother's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Father and mother don't need to worry, this sauce is secretly made by Bei Qiu, and they would never think of how to prepare it anyway. Besides, let parents relax and relax. It’s our first holiday as a family, so let’s have a good time.”
"What Qiu'er said is true." Fan Hanyi is actually very filial in his bones, and he agrees with Bei Qiu's statement: "Parents should also take a good rest. After this wild boar is finished, I will sell it in the town. Let's have a holiday. "
Both Fan's father and Fan's mother nodded.
Bei Qiu left the bulk of the money to Fan's father and Fan's mother, and asked Fan's mother to find out and redeem the dowry bracelet quickly, so she took the change, and the two went back to the house.
"The remaining half of the pigskin will be peeled off for you tomorrow." Fan Hanyi said while fetching water for Bei Qiu.
Bei Qiu sat on the edge of the bed, took off her shoes and socks consciously, and said with a smile: "That would be great, of course, I will deal with the pigskin tomorrow, and hang up the excess pigskin, don't worry about it, tomorrow It’s fine to sell as much as today.”
Fan Hanyi squatted in front of Bei Qiu with a wooden basin in his hand, grabbed Bei Qiu's feet naturally, put them into the warm water, and asked in confusion, "Qiu'er doesn't plan to take advantage of the victory to pursue?"
Bei Qiu burst out laughing, and joked, "Your husband thought you were on the battlefield, and you need to know hunger marketing to be in business."
"What?" Fan Hanyi frowned slightly, completely unaware of this new term.
"Let them know that this item is hard-won, and you can only buy so much per day. Those who want to buy it will naturally rack their brains to buy it, and those who don't want to buy it will be motivated." Bei Qiu's little feet in The water moved, and continued: "Furthermore, if these people eat too much at one time, the pig skin will not be as attractive as before."
"There are so many evil ideas." Fan Hanyi shook his head helplessly.
Bei Qiu stuck out her tongue, and said: "That's natural, Bei Qiu still has a lot of ghost ideas in his head, it depends on when my husband can dig them out."
Fan Hanyi wiped her feet, put them on the bed, and said, "It's too late today, and you won't be going up the mountain tomorrow, so you don't need to get up early, go to bed quickly."
"Husband also goes to bed earlier." Bei Qiu nodded obediently, took off her clothes, wrapped herself in a quilt, and fell asleep.
Fan Hanyi looked at Bei Qiu for a moment, then blew on the oil lamp in the house, went out to pour water, and fell asleep.
When Bei Qiu got up, it was already high in the sun.
When she came out of the house, she saw Fan Hanyi was processing pork in the yard, and when Bei Qiu came out, she wiped her face with a towel and said, "Qiu'er, get up."
"Morning husband." Bei Qiu greeted politely, looked around, and asked, "Aren't parents at home?"
"After I dried the pig skin, I sent the wild boar viscera to the town first." Fan Hanyi washed his hands with clean water beside him, and said, "Be hungry, there is food in the room."
"The husband is busy first." Bei Qiu went into the house to eat.
After a while, Fan's father and Fan's mother came back. The two were very happy, holding a big bag of flour and a basket of eggs in their hands. Make up your body and fill the Fan family with a fat boy as soon as possible.
Bei Qiu blushed, and cast a reproachful glance at Fan Hanyi.
At noon, I scrambled an egg and made some pancakes.
It was the most sumptuous meal Bei Qiu had here.
In the afternoon, Bei Qiu told the second elder how she made roasted pig skin, and asked the second elder to sell food. She wanted to try shadow puppetry.
The two elders were in a bit of a dilemma, not to mention that the two elders had never done business, and Bei Qiu had never touched shadow puppetry, so they were afraid of messing up.
But Fan Hanyi was completely on Bei Qiu's side. Since Bei Qiu wanted to play, let her play.
Throughout the afternoon, the two elders were preparing matches, washing twigs, and cutting pig skins. Bei Qiu is the cat in the house, the dolls with shadow puppets, see how many of the ready-made dolls can be used.
Before Bei Qiu left the stall, she gave thousands of warnings that she must not make any concessions. Those sister-in-laws said that it was cheaper and they would give more.
And Bei Qiu also has her own plans.
Because she knew that after the Chinese New Year, the heroine would time travel.
