The summer night is like water, fleeting. When the white fish belly appears in the east, the streets and alleys of Fangxian County are already becoming noisy. The vendors who got up early for the morning market are either on their way or have already set up their stalls. It belongs to the morning. The excitement is slowly kicking off amid the noise of vendors and the crowing of cocks and dogs.
Everyone who does breakfast business gets up very early, and Li Wang and his wife are the same. They got up at around 4:30 in the morning, changing briquettes, making soup, and making dumplings made last night. Get on the steamer and open the shop door at dawn.
Opening the rolling shutter, Li Wang subconsciously looked at the street in front of the door. This pedestrian street is divided into two sections. One section is the golden zone, and stalls are not allowed in the middle of the street. The other section used to be a vegetable market, but now it can also be set up. stall trading.
The shops on both sides of the street, those selling meat and bread, open early in the morning, and those selling clothes usually open after 8:30. At a glance, there are very few open shops, and under the street lights They are all vegetable stalls for the morning market and those selling poultry.
He looked over and saw Lele’s classmate driving a tricycle approaching from a distance, and he couldn’t help but feel happy. Little Lele worked hard to catch the morning market, so he probably set off before dawn.
He stood at the door, happily watching the little girl come to the door, and went to help park the car. "Xiao Lele, I said hello to the owner of the shop next door yesterday. You can occupy the space in front of their shop for a while. A little space, as long as it doesn't affect the customers' entry and exit of the store."
"Thank you, Uncle Li." Le Yun almost jumped up with joy.
Li's shop operates breakfast, and there are many customers in the morning. She can occupy up to half of the front of the shop, which can accommodate tricycles, but it is not easy to put watermelons. If she can occupy some space in front of the shop next door, , that’s much more convenient.
Li Daniu, who got up early to prepare to be a helper, also ran out of the shop and waited for Xiao Lele to mark a spot.
Le Yun jumped out of the car, spread a plastic paper mat on the ground, and quickly unloaded the goods. The Li family also helped. Holding a large pile, the five people quickly moved all the vegetables down and poured the eggplants out of the truck bed.
Uncle Li helped pack the vegetables, Le Yun went to transport watermelons again, and the Li family went to work in the store.
In summer, it gets dark just after five o'clock. People rushing to the morning market will basically come after 5:40, and the people setting up stalls also have enough time to sort out their goods.
Le Yun left in a hurry, and about forty minutes later, she returned to the Li family shop with a cart of watermelons and several large bags of things.
Uncle Li packed all the vegetables and once again helped Xiao Lele move the big and small bags back to the corner of the store. The two of them also carried a dozen watermelons and hid them first.
Le Yun found some cardboard and wrote a few words on top of the car and watermelon. She put the newly purchased desktop electronic scale on the ground. Everything was ready. She was eating breakfast. Halfway through, she heard shouting from outside. , ran out and took a look, it was amazing, there was a long queue of more than ten people in front of the melons and vegetables, mostly middle-aged and elderly people.
Classmate Le Xiao has an excellent memory. At a glance, he found that they all bought cucumbers and tomatoes yesterday.In a word, all the people are repeat customers. If you have repeat customers, it means you tasted it yesterday and knew it was a good thing. It just comes today. It also indicates that business will not be too bad today.
This is the time to get rich again. Leyun was so happy that she almost fainted. Then she looked at her price tag, which was five yuan per catty. Did anyone see it?
"Little classmate , it’s on sale, it’s on sale soon, I’m waiting for the side dishes to go home and cook noodles.”
“Little classmate, hurry up and start selling. I bought it and went home to make breakfast.”
The middle-aged and elderly people waiting in line urged excitedly when they saw Le Xiao champion.
"Okay, I'll start the weighing right away." Le Yun, who was giggling, didn't bother to have breakfast. She stood in front of the stall, picked up a handful of beans and green vegetables, and put them on the scale. "These bundles of green beans and green beans come in handfuls. If you don't believe it, you can do a random check at any time. If you are short of two packs, you will be refunded, and you will be compensated for it. It's five yuan a catty, not fifty cents a catty."
"I know, I know. We saw the words on the sign, I want five handfuls of each kind of cabbage and celery, for a total of fifty yuan, I'll give you the money."
"I won't come if you don't believe me. There are three handfuls of Chinese cabbage and beans, and they cost 40 yuan, right?”
Most of the people who bought cucumbers and tomatoes yesterday secretly weighed them to test whether the portions were adequate, and they were very satisfied with the results. The portions were sufficient and the quality was good. It's too good to say. They have never eaten such delicious cucumbers and tomatoes, so they came here early this morning. Even if the green vegetables are a bit expensive, they still have to buy some and try them. If they don't taste good, just treat it as... Spend money to buy lessons.
Le Yun thought her price was expensive and few people bought it, but she didn’t expect everyone to be so quick to sell. She hurriedly packed the vegetables neatly, "Hey, okay, five handfuls of celery and cabbage, yours."
The vegetables are tied up and easy to pick up. Only the eggplant needs to be weighed. One person can basically do it. Little Le Xiao classmate is like a little bee, spinning around happily with a bright smile.
Li Daniu hurriedly finished his breakfast and went to work. He sat on the pile of watermelons and focused on weighing.
At first, a few people were shopping for groceries and wanted to buy watermelons. Seeing that their classmates were too busy, they stood there without saying a word. When they saw Li Daniu coming, they hugged the watermelons and called them. They were all green and round, and looked similar in appearance. , the only difference is size.
At about 6:30, there were more and more people on the street, and there was an endless stream of people coming to Li's shop. Most of them were repeat customers, and some were brought here by acquaintances. It can be seen how powerful the masses are.
It starts selling at around 6:00, and before 8:00, all the vegetables are sold out, leaving about a small pile of eggplants. People who come later find that there are no vegetables, so they can only buy eggplants, which are less than 2 Ten minutes later, the eggplants were gone, leaving only half a cart of watermelons.
Le Xiaoxiao thought that watermelons would not be easy to sell, and was wondering whether to buy one. It would be tempting to commit crime. Before he could figure it out, seven or eight people dragging shopping trailers came cheering. , there was a lot of shouting
"Here are three watermelons."
"Can you not limit the purchase? Three feels so little, I want five."
< p>""Li Daniu was embarrassed. Xiao Lele was indeed the reincarnation of a fortune star. Everything he sold was so smooth. His old man was jealous, okay?
"For the sake of old customers , the purchase limit is five. If you buy more, it will spoil if you don’t finish them all. "Miaomiao, they are still repeat customers, and some of them are people who bought food before. Leyun was embarrassed to be too rigid, so she made a temporary decision to change the purchase limit.
"That's right, one visit gives birth to two. Come on, we are all old customers. ”
People came to pick up the watermelons themselves. Two of them actually bought watermelons before, cut them open and tasted them. Without saying a word, they gathered their friends and hurried over to grab the goods again. .
After sending away a group of old customers, about a quarter of the watermelon was left. Le Yun took the time to wipe her sweat and heard a bitter female voice: "Watermelons cost five yuan a pound. You are selling Tang Monk." Meat?"
