Dressed as a farmer's widow, she brought her daughter to stock up on food and reached the top

Chapter 341 Napkins

Sister Liu was stunned at first, then she laughed heartily and said in a resonant voice, "Don't worry, everyone, the price is absolutely fair! Only 25 cents a bundle. And to celebrate the opening of the new store, our boss said, buy two bundles, get one free. This promotion will last for three days, and then the price will return to the original price."

Upon hearing the price, a low murmur suddenly arose among the crowd.

Someone said excitedly: "This price is really affordable!"

"Yes, rice is now 80 wen a jin, millet is 60 wen a jin, and black flour is sold at 40 wen a jin."

"This price is really cheap! This sweet potato noodle can be eaten as a meal!"

Some people were also thinking about whether they should buy a few more bundles so that they could stock up on more of the cheap food.

The small shop suddenly became lively, with people scrambling to buy things.

"Give me four bundles!" a burly man shouted. "Boss, buy two bundles and get one free, that's six bundles! Don't make the wrong ones."

When Mrs. Liu heard this address, she was stunned at first, but then it was the first time in her life that she heard someone call her the shopkeeper, and the smile on her face suddenly became as bright as a blooming spring flower and could not be hidden.

She quickly responded, "Okay!" and then she took out six bundles of sweet potato flour from the shelf, wrapped them carefully with brown paper, and handed them to the man.

Yang Qingfeng was in charge of collecting the money. He smiled and said in an orderly manner, "Four bundles, a total of one hundred coins."

Afan stood in front of the container with high spirits and a confident smile on his face, earnestly sharing the knowledge that Xiuying had taught him with everyone.

"This bundle is called sweet potato noodles. Before you take it home and cook it, make sure to soak it in water. Once it's softened, put it in the pot and cook. After it's cooked, pick it out and add your favorite seasonings and some leafy vegetables. This is called hot and sour noodles, which you just tasted at the door of the store."

"Also, the white powder in this jar is also sweet potato flour. You can add some to meat when you eat it, mix it with the meat and then stir-fry it. The meat will be tender, smooth and taste great! This small jar is only thirty cents."

Speaking of food, Wang Daya's eyes suddenly lit up, and her thoughts drifted back to the delicious food she had tasted before. She said excitedly: "When I talk about food, I think of a dish made by my wife. It's amazing!"

"You may not know this, but you can also stir-fry sweet potato noodles with minced meat. It's so delicious and goes really well with rice! This dish also has an interesting name: Ants Climbing a Tree."

"The minced meat is tightly wrapped around the sweet potato starch, just like little ants crawling on a tree branch. When you put it in your mouth, the sweet potato starch is slippery, and the minced meat is fragrant. The combination of the two is so delicious that even thinking about it now makes my mouth water!"

The guests gave thumbs up and praised

"Not only is your boss a skilled cook, able to come up with so many novel sweet potato noodle recipes, but he's also so smart about business management that he came up with such a great promotion like buy two get one free. It's truly remarkable!"

"That's right! You're lucky to have such an owner. This store will definitely become more and more prosperous in the future!"

"I think this owner is not only smart and capable, but also kind-hearted. The price is so fair that ordinary people like us can afford to eat and buy it."

At this time, Xiuying and Shiliu were dressed in men's clothes and stood quietly in the corner across the street.

Shi Liu said excitedly, "Mom, it seems that the sweet potato noodles in our village are very popular!"

After hearing this, Xiuying smiled shyly, but the smile did not reach her eyes, as if she was hiding something on her mind.

After a moment of silence, Xiuying said softly, "Let's go to Wenmofang to deliver the goods."

This street where pens and ink are sold used to be very bustling with people coming and going, but now it is becoming increasingly deserted.

Although there were still a few customers coming in and out of the grocery stores and grain stores on both sides of the street, they were only a sparse few, making the street look particularly deserted.

The door of Wenmofang was wide open, and Boss He was sitting on a chair with a sad face and a frown on his face.

He thought silently in his heart: Although Wenmofang was acquired by Xiuying and Xiuying also gave money, the risk was shared, but this business has been so quiet, and it is not a good thing to close it for a long time! Boss He sighed deeply and shook his head helplessly.

"Hey, what are you thinking about, Boss He?" a crisp voice came.

Boss He was startled and looked up, an expression of surprise instantly appeared on his face: "It's Sister Xiuying!" As if he saw the light in the darkness, he was so excited that he almost stood up from his chair.

"Sister Xiuying, you are finally here! We have not opened the shop for a long time. I can’t sell anything even at a 20% discount. I am so worried that my hair is almost turning white!" Boss He said as he stood up and walked quickly towards Xiuying.

Xiuying smiled, her expression calm and composed, and said soothingly, "Don't worry, Boss He, I'm here, right? Let's talk inside."

"Yes, yes, please."

Boss He responded quickly, his face full of anticipation, and made a gesture of invitation.

After entering the inner room, Xiuying and Shiliu carefully placed the two baskets they were carrying in front of Boss He.

Xiuying said, "Boss He, we are here to deliver goods. This basket contains paper, and this basket contains brushes and inkstones." As Xiuying spoke, she pointed at the two baskets.

Boss He bent down and curiously picked up a ball of paper from the backpack. He said with a puzzled look on his face, "Is this paper? It feels soft to the touch."

Boss He frowned and looked at the paper in his hand over and over again, his face full of confusion. Is this really paper?!

Xiuying smiled and said, "This paper is called a napkin. It's a handicraft passed down from our ancestors. It's very useful in daily life. You can use it to wipe your mouth or your butt after going to the toilet. It's much better than using bamboo slips."

Then, Xiuying leaned closer to Boss He and whispered, "Also, Boss He, ladies can also use it when they have their period."

"oh oh ."

Boss He opened his mouth wide in surprise, so big that it could fit an egg. His eyes were so round that he couldn't close them for a long time.

After a long while, he finally recovered and stammered, "What's the price?"

Boss He thought to himself: This napkin is really good stuff. I have never seen such soft and tender paper. If it were in the past, it would definitely sell for a good price. But now the economy is in recession and people have little money in their pockets. If the price is too high, I am afraid it will not sell.

Xiuying supported her chin with one hand, narrowed her eyes slightly, and thought seriously: I bought this napkin in the system for 9.9 yuan a bag, there are 9 napkins in a bag, and the cost is one yuan each. The most important thing now is to have customers patronize the store.

"Two cents each!" Xiuying said decisively.
