Entering the officialdom by mistake and getting promoted quickly

Since there were a lot of things purchased, it was already evening when everything was ready.

This time is exactly when citizens go home from get off work.

In the early 9s, urban management had not yet appeared in cities, so stalls could be set up anywhere, and the state encouraged people to invigorate the economy.

With the help of the girl, Xia Shuo chose a wealthy and prosperous residential area. After the neighborhood committee director took over two "Hongta Mountains", he immediately expressed his strong support for the poverty alleviation work of northern cadres.

So, a large iron pot was placed directly at the gate of the residential area.

Then, light the fire, cook the stove, and stew the hens with pine mushrooms.

As the gas stove burns brightly, the scent of pine mushrooms gradually fills the air.

……

Guangyue, a legendary city, really has no resistance to delicious food. The scent of pine mushrooms in the air quickly attracted the attention of many residents.

"Hey, is that a newly opened food stall?"

"The smell seems very good. It smells so good even from such a distance."

"Is it expensive? How about we try it?"

"Wait a minute, look, the little boss is hanging a banner. Is it advertising the opening of a new business?"

"Hey, the content of the banner looks a little strange..."

A citizen watched from a distance and began to recite the words on the banner:

"The poor mountainous areas in the north, the government's poverty alleviation project, free tasting of special mountain delicacies, and feel the sincerity of the old revolutionary base."

It’s actually a poverty alleviation project?

The citizens looked at each other, feeling a little strange.

Since ancient times, Chinese people like to get together when they are curious about things, and getting together can easily lead to a herd mentality, so more and more citizens flock here.

In the blink of an eye, there were already dense crowds of people around.

It's just that although there are people around, they all just wait and watch. It seems that they are just out of curiosity and have no intention of trying it.

It is obvious that southerners do not trust the rhetoric of free food tasting and are not only suspicious but also wary.

Now it's the girl's turn to appear!

I saw the girl riding her scooter, pretending to have just come back from get off work. She parked the scooter at the edge of the crowd, raised her head and pretended to read the hanging banner.

After reading the banner, the girl said "Hey", as if she was very curious, and deliberately asked Xia Shuo: "Hey, pretty boy, is the free trial you said really free?"

Without saying anything, Xia Shuo directly picked up the spoon and filled a bowl with pine mushroom stewed chicken. He said with a smile: "Try it for free. If you think it tastes good, just help me tell everyone."

However, the girl did not accept the bowl. Instead, she expressed doubt again and said deliberately: "Are you going to wait until I finish eating and then suddenly increase the price and make me pay?"

Xia Shuo laughed, reached out and took out his work permit, and said loudly: "Girl, look, I am a state worker. If I dare to lie to you, you can sue me to my work unit!"

The girl pretended to see Xia Shuo's work permit, but she questioned it for the third time, asking: "Since you are a cadre from the north, why do you come to our place to set up a street stall?"

Every time she questioned seemed like a question, she was actually giving Xia Shuo a chance to explain.

Xia Shuo also seized every opportunity and gave a reasonable explanation.

With the mutual cooperation of the two people's questions and answers, the surrounding Guangdong citizens gradually dispelled their suspicions.

It turned out that the small stall owner was a state cadre.

It turns out that he came to Guangdong to help the people in his hometown get rid of poverty.

Thousands of miles away, alone.

He looked so young, he must have been a student who had just stepped out of school. Especially the childishness on his face and the clarity in his eyes made everyone present feel that he was still a young boy.

However, he is such a childish boy, but he cherishes the dream of the people in his hometown to get rid of poverty, and shoulders the responsibility of helping the poor people find a way out. He is willing to set up a stall here just to promote the pine mushrooms in his hometown.

Since ancient times in China, human relations have been warm and cold. Everyone present was moved by Xia Shuo's innocent heart.

"Young man, give me one."

Finally, a middle-aged man spoke and said in a kind voice: "If the taste of this pine mushroom is really what you said, uncle, I will definitely pay for it after eating it."

A middle-aged woman next to her followed closely and also said, "I'll try a portion too. If I like it, I'll buy it too."

"I'm all acridine..."

"I'm all acridine..."

One person spoke, and many others spoke. Although Xia Shuo could not understand Cantonese, he could hear the tone of these people.

He prepared a total of 2 bowls, but the crowd in 4 weeks has exceeded a hundred people. A large pot of pine mushroom stewed chicken was all given away in a blink of an eye, causing many citizens who did not receive it to watch helplessly.

The more this happens, the more people are looking forward to it, and they all ask: "How is it? How does it taste?"

In full view of everyone, the first middle-aged man to participate in the tasting put down his bowl and chopsticks.

He first exhaled slowly, as if savoring the aftertaste between his lips and teeth. After a long while, he sighed with emotion: "It is truly a delicacy from the north. This is an indescribable delicacy."

At this moment, the second middle-aged woman who tried the food also put down her bowl and chopsticks and praised: "It tastes so good. It's really on point."

Immediately afterwards, there was the third taster, the fourth taster, the fifth taster...

When almost all the taste testers put down their bowls and chopsticks, they would invariably make the same action. First, they would take a deep breath, close their eyes with a face full of enjoyment, and praise: "Good food, delicious, really on point." "

Gold cups and silver cups are not as good as the reputation of ordinary people.

The praise from so many tasters immediately aroused the enthusiasm of the entire tasting scene.

"Young handsome boy, do you have any more?"

"Young handsome boy, how do you sell this mountain treasure?"

"Its name is pine mushroom. Is it a mushroom that grows in pine forests?"

"I want to buy 1 catty, I want to buy 1 catty, weigh the goods for me now, weigh the goods for me now."

"Tell me, tell me quickly, how much do you sell these pine mushrooms for? My family wants to eat chicken stewed with pine mushrooms tonight."

Looking at the crowd of eager inquiries, Xia Shuo took a deep breath and said loudly: "Everyone, everyone, please be patient and let me answer your questions comprehensively."

“First of all, the origin of pine mushrooms!”

"Everyone, take a look. This is my work permit. I come from a poor mountainous area in the north. Our area is a famous old revolutionary area."

"The mushroom you tried just now grows in the mountains. Its name is Mengshan pine mushroom. It can only survive in high-altitude pine forests."

"To be honest, I don't want to deceive you with lies. This kind of pine mushroom is not valuable in our local area, and the people have not regarded it as a good thing for generations."

"Although I don't think of it as a good thing, it is very hard to pick it. Carrying a bamboo basket, soaked with sweat, climbing mountains and forests, bending down to pick."

"Every mushroom is soaked with the sweat of the pickers."

"We are poor there, but the people there are loyal. In order to ensure the quality of the pine mushrooms, we clean them before drying them."

"There is no sediment or gravel in these dried pine mushrooms."

"If you want to dry one pound of dry food, you need at least 1 to 8 pounds of pine mushrooms."

Xia Shuo talked for most of the day, seeming to go off topic more and more.

The girl suddenly spoke and asked with a deliberate smile: "Just tell me, what price are you going to sell it for? Since we are going to buy it, we must be willing to pay."

Xia Shuo seemed to hesitate for a moment, then asked in a pretense of anxiety: "I want to sell it for 1 yuan per catty, is that okay?"

8 yuan?

The scene that was so lively just now showed signs of cooling down.
