Chapter 537: Counterattack! loser! (11)
Aunt Liu from the stall next door felt jealous when she saw that the business of Xu Wanping's vegetable stall was getting better and better day by day.
But she only went to the Chengnan Wholesale Market once. After that, no matter how she coaxed her son to accompany her to buy goods, he just refused, saying that the price difference was not enough to cover the gas bill. Should she just buy some from a small wholesaler near her home? okay.
Aunt Liu's wife also advised her: "You are already old, why bother going to the south of the city every day and midnight, can you bear it?"
Of course she knew what the two men were talking about, but every time she saw Xu Wanping's vegetable stall doing so well, she couldn't help but feel jealous.
"Xiao Xu, do you have a new way to purchase goods?" Aunt Liu asked again with a shy face, "Remember to tell me if you have a good way. Look at my aunt, my life is not easy. We are all vegetable sellers. , we need to help each other.”
Xu Wanping still said the same thing: “It hasn’t changed, it’s still the same place.”
“How about you bring some for me? You see, I’m getting older and I can’t bear to travel to the south of the city. You have a tricycle anyway, so you’re going to buy some goods. Isn’t it a big deal to buy an extra thirty or fifty kilograms?”
Xu Wanping has a new understanding of her shamelessness. It’s so eloquent!
Even if there had been no quarrel, Xu Wanping would not have been able to help her colleagues carry goods for free for a long time, not to mention that the two had turned against each other before. Although for some unknown reason in the past few days, Aunt Liu took the initiative to get close to her, she didn't understand it at first, but now she understands that some people just can't afford to do it early without any benefit.
Xu Wanping refused bluntly: "I'm really sorry, I can't hold much on my tricycle. If I could hold more, I would have put more on it. As you can see, I don't even have enough to sell. By the way, doesn't your son have a car? I heard that It's at home, you can ask him to take you there. My daughter accompanied me and brought a full car back. I can't move so much by myself."
Aunt Liu: “…”
If her son is willing to accompany her to the south of the city to get food, does she have to ask in a low voice?
He turned his head away angrily and said to the vendor on the other side: "Look! You're not even willing to do me a favor! You're talking about so many things, aren't you just afraid that we will steal her business?"
The stalls on the other side sell fruits such as plums and pears. Xu's vegetable stall is doing well, and she can get some traffic, so she hopes that the business will be good.
Moreover, she had seen the entire incident when Aunt Liu had an unpleasant incident with Xu Wanping, and she somewhat looked down upon Aunt Liu's actions.
At this moment, Mrs. Liu was pulling her to say bad things about Xu Wanping. She smiled awkwardly and did not answer the conversation. She thought to herself: Who in business is willing to tell others about the source of his goods? Stupid? There are also people who only have an electric three-wheeler and their business is so good. Why should they carry it for you when they can carry more goods? What else can she sell if she brings it to you? How about co-writing and serving you alone?
Aunt Liu met and talked for a long time, but the other party didn't answer anything. The resentment in her heart had nowhere to go, and her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys all ached with anger.
Xu Wanping's half-cart of vegetables was selling faster and faster. Some customers were half an hour late from get off work. When they arrived at the night market, Xu's vegetable stall had already closed, so they had to buy the vegetables for tonight at Aunt Liu's place.
Aunt Liu said meaningfully: "Why do you all like the dishes she sells? You don't get tired of eating them every day? You won't be like those unscrupulous merchants who spray something into the dishes, something that makes people addicted." Well...I'm not saying bad things about her. When her daughter didn't come here before, her vegetable stall's business was really not that good. The stalls were closed at eight or nine o'clock and there were still quite a few unsold. Since her daughter followed her every day She came out of the stall, carried a small spray bottle and sprayed her vegetables, and her business suddenly improved..."
"Yes! I'm right next to you, so I could have seen it wrong! Didn't I say, look at the vegetables on my stall, which I grow at home and are picked and sold now. They are all wilting at this point. How could they always be so good? Good presentation…”
"This is too much!" The customer became angrier as he listened and stood up. "If you are really spraying some medicine to keep vegetables fresh and juicy, it is naked poisoning! This is too much! I will file a complaint tomorrow!"Liu The aunt secretly rejoiced: It’s good to complain! You should file a complaint! It's better to complain about her business! You don’t have to compete with me for business, huh!
The next evening, as usual, Xu Yin took half a cart of vegetables and accompanied her mother to the night market to set up a stall.
She usually doesn’t go to the morning market because it’s relatively cool in the morning. Spraying the Linglu mist once can keep the vegetables and fruits fresh until they are all sold. She can also save some time and stay at home to clean up and tidy up the vegetable patch.
There are more people in the night market than in the morning market. There is a variety of things for sale, and the people visiting the night market are also mixed.
Xu Yin was worried about jealous people. Seeing that her vegetable stall was doing well, she hired a gangster to cause trouble, so she followed her every day. Anyway, now half a cart of vegetables can be sold out in less than an hour.
Unexpectedly, the targets she was guarding against day and night—the gangsters who were causing trouble in the name of collecting "protection fees"—didn't come to cause trouble. Instead, two uniformed staff from the Office of Market Management and Supervision came to the door.
“Someone complained that there is something wrong with the vegetables sold by your vegetable stall, and we need to conduct random inspections.”
…”
Xu Wanping explained with a smile: "Comrade, the vegetables I sell are wholesaled from Chengnan Wholesale Market. The wholesale market tests them every day, and there are no problems."
"It's no use what you said. And this watering can, what is it for? We need to take it back for testing."
"This is just ordinary water, tap water. Because the weather is hot, vegetable leaves tend to wilt, so I just spray it a little, not too much. It's just like the moisturizing mist that young people spray on their faces. It's purely for moisturizing. "
"Yes, yes! There is nothing wrong with the vegetables she sells. My daughter took them to the supermarket for testing right from the beginning. If there is any problem, I have stopped coming. The only problem is that the quantity is small. If you come late, you won't be able to buy it." The old lady who came to Xu's vegetable stall every day to buy vegetables gave Xu Wanping a fair word.
But the market staff came here after receiving a complaint call. How could they believe the stall owner with a few explanations and a few words of help from others?
They insisted on bringing all the vegetables, sprays, etc. that might have problems, and said they wanted to have them tested. If there are any problems, wait until they are detected. Facts speak louder than words.
“Sister, please weigh two kilograms of tomatoes for me first, and then ask for a handful of water spinach. I’ll go back and cook.” The old lady said eagerly.
She started, and other residents also said:
“Lady boss, weigh six cucumbers for me.”
“Boss lady, I want two handfuls of lettuce and a handful of water spinach. How much is the total?”
They took the time to let Xu Wanping weigh the dishes for them, lest she stop setting up the stall for a while.
