The old family said they would do it. The next day they began to be busy at home, baking cakes and steaming cold skins.
Mrs. Gu gave Gu Changsheng more than ten yuan and asked him to talk to Zhang Yang in the county town these two days.
"Be sure to find out if he has a crush on Gu qiaoyue's dead girl."
"It's better to find out how many betrothal gifts Gu qiaoyue can get if she marries him."
The old Gu family is calculating and cruel enough.
On the first day, he baked more than 200 cakes, steamed more than 100 cold skins and went to the county town early in the morning.
Mrs. Gu was worried about her two daughter-in-law and went with her.
In order to prevent Gu qiaoyue from beating them crazy again, he took three grandchildren and followed them with sticks.
Since Gu qiaoyue's family had a tricycle, they didn't have to hurry too early. They didn't start until dawn.
When I went to the place, the old family took up their booth and was shouting at the moment.
Gu qiaoyue narrowed her eyes as she listened to their cries.
I've seen shameless. I've never seen such shameless.
"They are so shameless."
Zhang Peipei's angry eyes were red. They finally found a way to earn money. Now they were robbed by the old family.
He cunfang gnashed his teeth in anger and wanted to lift the old Gu's stall.
Zhang housheng rolled up his sleeve and was about to rush up.
"Deceive people too much. I'll teach them a lesson!"
Gu qiaoyue grabbed him and sneered.
"They like to sell. Just let them sell. We'll set up a stall here."
"Moon?" Zhang Peipei called out suspiciously.
She didn't expect that Gu qiaoyue, who had always seen the old Gu family rushing in front, would suddenly let them go, with disapproval in her eyes.
"Mom, uncle, box son, don't worry, they can't buy it for long."
If the estimation is correct, according to the black heart of the old family, there must be no less preparation.
The more you prepare, the harder you will pay.
Just let them sing for a while.
Their cold skin and roujiamo are the housekeeping skills of grandma Wu Honglian.
The taste is different from that made by other families, otherwise it won't sell so well. People who only occasionally come to the county to sell their own crops think about it. They come to the market every time.
Rougamo is even more rougamo with wax sauce. There are dozens of spices for stewed meat alone. I don't believe his old family can make it.
And cold skin, which also has an exclusive secret recipe.
Even for ordinary steamed food, Zhang Peipei's cooking skills are much better than the two daughters-in-law of the old Gu family.
And it didn't happen in a previous life, but what? I didn't do business for a few days and was beaten up.
Zhang Peipei, Zhang housheng and he cunfang were very confused, but they didn't say anything. They set up a stall opposite.
Seeing Gu qiaoyue's family coming, the three grandsons of the old Gu family nervously took sticks and were ready.
They all know that Gu qiaoyue is cruel. He beat his eldest brother's head and blood yesterday, which made grandma faint.
As a result, Gu qiaoyue and others just looked at them. Without paying any attention, they set up a stall at the other end.
Gu qiaoyue's family has set up a stall here for more than half a month, and they have known people who often come to eat.
As soon as I came here today, I saw another rougamo seller here. I was confused and asked.
"Why is there another one?"
Gu qiaoyue smiled and didn't speak.
Sometimes people buy from the old Gu family, but the business is not as good as that of Gu qiaoyue.
Watching Gu qiaoyue and others keep busy and collect money, old Gu's red eyes look at them and want to drag the guests to their house.
Li Lingling is not in a hurry. She also thought of this situation. After all, Gu qiaoyue has been selling here for a long time and has familiar customers.
Seeing Mrs. Gu worried, he said:
"Mom, don't worry. After all, they've been selling for so long. People know them. We've been selling for a long time, and we'll get better slowly."
"That's good. We've done so much at once. In summer, if we can't sell it out, it'll break down!"
Mrs Gu is in a hurry. The pancakes are made of white flour. It's all money. It's a pity that they can't be sold out and break down.
Li Lingling thought for a moment and said, "why don't we reduce the price? They sell 50 cents, we sell 40 cents, and grab the guests?"
Wei Meiqi frowned.
"How much do you have to sell less? What if you can't get back?"
Li Lingling rolled her eyes and was speechless to her second sister-in-law.
"It's not the second sister-in-law. You say business is easy to do. We only do so much. Now, we can't sell it. It's hard not to let it go in Chengdu without reducing the price?"
Wei Meiqi quit immediately and shouted loudly.
"What do you mean, Li Lingling? I didn't see you when I brought back the news. You said you didn't agree. It's my fault that I can't sell it now! What have I done so long ago!"
Li Lingling didn't like this second sister-in-law who only knew how to quarrel and how to do things. She didn't quarrel with her and said to Mrs. Gu:
Cold noodle has the final say, "Mom, we just started to cut the price, and we had to sell them all without a business. We still had to sell the flapjack. We didn't have to raise the price."
"And now the most important thing is to squeeze their business and let them mess up. Don't forget that we still have big things. Prosperity took more than ten yuan and worked hard at Zhang Yang."
"Mom, we can't just look at the immediate interests, we have to look at the long-term."
Li Lingling can speak and can do something. It's not. After a few words, old lady Gu is moved.
Yes, they not only sell cold skins, but also squeeze. They have no business. The most important thing is the bride price.
Zhang Yang's family is rich. Gu qiaoyue's dead girl looks right. The bride price can't be more than 100 yuan?
Old lady Gu bit her teeth and said, "shout, reduce one dime for each."
Wei Meiqi lost a hair at once, which hurt her heart and liver.
"Just reduce five points. Why do you reduce so much?"
However, Li Lingling had already called and shouted.
While selling fifty cents, they sold forty cents. People who wanted to eat cold skin and rougamo and were reluctant to give up money became more active and asked one after another.
"Roujiamo really sells for 40 cents?"
"Four cents for cold skin? Two cents for steamed bun with vegetables?"
"Yes, yes, would you like one?"
Li Lingling greeted with a smile. Wei Meiqi was busy while Mrs. Gu sat and looked at Gu qiaoyue.
Seeing a cry from his own side, Gu qiaoyue had fewer people there and sneered proudly.
"Why is your meat so white?" someone asked suspiciously.
He saw the marinated meat of Gu qiaoyue's rougamo. It was dark brown and smelled like a fragrance.
Wei Meiqi said, "what color can the meat be? It's not all white when cooked. If there are other colors, there may be something bad."
"That's true. Let's have rougamo."
