Chapter 57

However, the next day when the Wang family knocked on Su He’s door looking for Su He, no one was at home.

Because today is market day, Su He got up before dawn and steamed eggs and corn for breakfast for the two children.

I also heated up two boxes of milk.

Now both kids are used to drinking milk and they don’t think milk tastes fishy anymore.

Just as I packed my things, Aunt Niu called Su He at the door of his house.

“Sister Su, Sister Su.”

Su He heard it and immediately replied, “Hey, I’m here.”

This time she brought much more things to the city than last time.

Su He brought oil, flour, sliced ​​sweet potatoes, salt, pots and pans, basically all the tools needed to fry fried rice cakes.

Aunt Niu was shocked to see her carrying so many things, and asked, “Sister Su, why are you bringing so many things this time?”

“Yes, I want to fry and sell them at the same time.” Su He said with a smile.

“Oh, that’s such a hassle.” Aunt Niu said with a frown.

This girl Su works really hard to make money.

“So this time I’m going to raise the price of my fried rice cakes to 30 cents each. After frying them on the spot and letting them see the oil, they will definitely be willing to spend money to buy them.” Su He said with a smile.

In this era, not many people are willing to use a lot of oil, so she just casually put out the whole pot of oil for them to see.

“You’re so smart. What happened yesterday afternoon? Everyone said you have a sharp brain.” Aunt Niu teased with a smile.

“Haha, the most important thing is that we are right. If we are not right, I will have to pay compensation.” Su He said with a sigh.

She would rather pay compensation than let her son get slapped, which made her heartbroken.

“Yes, that Wang family. Many families in the village have long been dissatisfied with them. They rely on the fact that there are many male members in their family and act like village bullies all day long.” Aunt Niu said indignantly.

Su He sighed and didn’t say anything. When they were ready to set off, he asked the two kids to sit on the cart.

“Mom, I don’t have to sit, I can walk by myself.” Zizi said very considerately.

“Mom, I can go by myself too.” Niu Niu looked at her brother and said.

Aunt Niu was deeply moved to see the two children being so sensible.

“Oh, these two kids are so sensible and well behaved.”

Su He looked at the two kids’ serious expressions and did not insist on letting them sit on the cart. She just said, “Okay, if you feel tired, remember to tell mom.”

The two kids nodded obediently.

Aunt Niu looked at the scene in front of her and couldn’t help but said to Su He: “No wonder you usually dote on the two

children so much, mainly because they also know how to feel sorry for their mother. I wish my grandchildren were so sensible, otherwise I would beat them with a branch every day.” “It’s normal for children to be naughty. My two children are too sensible. I hope they can be a little more naughty. I feel distressed that they are so sensible at this age.” Su He said with a sigh.

Su He and Aunt Niu were chatting while pushing the cart. The two kids followed their mother, not making any noise or noise. They were very well behaved.

If you go fast, it will only take 40 to 50 minutes to get to town, and if you go slowly, it will take about an hour.

Su He and his friends were pushing the cart, so naturally their journey was delayed a little.

But because they got up earlier this time than last time, it was not yet seven o’clock when they arrived in town.

“Let’s go to the place where we were last time and see if anyone has taken it.” After Aunt Niu said that, she took Su He to the last place.

The location was not occupied by anyone else last time, so the two of them still planned to set up a stall there.

After Su He put the things out, he said to Aunt Niu, “Aunt, please help me look after the two kids and the stall. I’m going to buy some charcoal.”

“Okay, go ahead.” Aunt Niu said with a smile.

“Kids, take your sister and wait here obediently, okay?” Su He said, looking at the two kids.

“Well, don’t worry, mom. I will help you guard the stall.” The baby answered seriously like a little adult.

His acting like a little adult made Aunt Niu laugh.

Su He went to the grocery store in the vegetable market to ask for charcoal. The boss looked at her and asked curiously, “Selling charcoal at this time?”

Su He smiled and said, “Yes, I need charcoal fire.”

“Three cents a pound of charcoal.” said the boss.

“Uncle, I need it for a long time. I buy charcoal on every market day, so can you give me a discount?”

After hearing this, the boss was a little hesitant, but still said, “Twenty-five cents, no less. My charcoal is not cheap.” “

Okay, twenty-five cents is twenty-five cents.” Su He replied quickly.

In the end, Su He bought ten kilograms of charcoal and spent two dollars and fifty cents.

Seeing her coming back with a bag of charcoal, Aunt Niu asked with concern: “You must have spent a lot of money, right?”

Who in the countryside nowadays would be willing to spend money to buy charcoal for burning? There are plenty of firewood on the mountain. You can just go up the mountain and chop it yourself.

“Not much.” Su He replied with a smile.

“Two people just came to buy your fried cakes, and I sold two for you.”

After Aunt Niu said this, she handed the sixty cents in her hand to Su He.

Su He didn’t expect that there would be business so soon. She was away for only ten minutes.

“Thank you, auntie.” Su He said with a smile.

“Mom.” Seeing that Su He ignored her, Niu Niu hurriedly called out.

“Hey, you two little darlings are so great. They are both staying at the stall and guarding the stall for their mother.” Su He said to the two kids with a smile.

Seeing that they were praised by Su He, Zizi and Niuniu’s faces were as bright as flowers.

Su He really started to get busy.

She put the charcoal into the stove, lit the fire, started to set up the pot, and then poured the bucket of oil she brought into the pot.

Aunt Niu looked at her and felt very distressed as if she was getting oil for free.

The sharp-eyed people on the side saw Su He’s big movements and stopped to see what she was going to do.

Su He didn’t avoid people and started mixing the flour directly. Then after the oil in the pot was boiling, she started frying the fried cakes.

It was the first time that everyone saw freshly made fried food, and they all stopped to watch.

Until the fragrance wafted out, someone finally couldn’t help asking: “Boss, how much is this one?”

Su He’s fried cake is very generous in size, fried until golden and fragrant, and many people want to buy some to try.

“Thirty cents each.” Su He said with a smile.

“Sanmao, isn’t this a bit expensive?” a passerby grumbled in dissatisfaction.

“First of all, the cost of my pancake is not low. Doesn’t oil cost money? Doesn’t flour cost money? So does the raw material, sweet potato. And I fry it on the spot, does the charcoal fire cost money? And the portion is very large, just one fried pancake is enough to fill you up.” Su He said with a smile.

I have to admit that doing business also requires good talking skills.

After Su He said this, three cents for a fried cake wasn’t that hard to accept?

“Give me two.” The man gritted his teeth and said.

Su He smiled, took out two from the backpack beside him, and put them in a bag for him.

“Didn’t they say it was fried freshly?” the man asked dissatisfiedly.

“It’s freshly fried. If you don’t believe me, just touch it and try it.”
