"Oh my brother, your cucumbers are so delicious! They are better than the ones grown in my hometown in the summer! It's a pity that there are just a few less. They are not enough to eat!"

Song Ye smiled faintly, "My friend said this is the latest variety, and each seed costs several cents. This kind of cucumber can only be eaten fresh, and the seeds cannot be saved, otherwise the yield will be affected, and you will have to buy seeds again the next year, so it is very expensive."

"Oh..." Everyone suddenly realized that cucumbers were so rare, so it was reasonable to sell them at two yuan per pound.

"No, I have to buy some cucumbers too. My wife will smell them and ask me about it when I get home. If she knows I ate delicious food but didn't buy her any, she'll cry!"

"Hahahaha, Lao Li, you're afraid your wife will beat you!"

Old Li rolled his eyes and said, "Get lost, you know nothing! Aren't wives supposed to be spoiled? No wonder your wife fights with you every other day."

"Haha, Lao Li is right. What can you achieve by arguing with a woman?"

"Hahaha……"

Such conversations were taking place at every table, and in the joyful atmosphere, Song Ye sold a lot of vegetables and fruits.

The meal lasted for two hours. They felt embarrassed to stay any longer, so they got up to pay the bill.

"Little brother, please sell us a few pounds of cucumbers. I'll give you 20% discount on this meal." The boss said cheerfully.

"Thank you, boss!" Song Ye happily sold him six kilograms of cucumbers and gave him two oranges as a way of returning the favor.

"By the way, boss, which intersection do you think is suitable for setting up a stall?" Song Ye asked.

"We are at the north gate. You have to go to the east gate. There is a small market over there. They sell everything. Old ladies are happy to go to the market to buy things. There is nothing wrong with setting up stalls there."

Song Ye nodded, "Thank you, boss!"

He turned around and greeted the customers in the room again, "Hey guys, I'm going to set up a stall at the Dongmen Market. If anyone asks where to buy something later, please let me know. Thank you!"

"Okay, nothing wrong!"

"Don't worry, it's all right!"

Song Ye waved at them and then walked out of the barbecue restaurant.

"Second brother! You are so awesome!" Song Haixia shouted excitedly as she walked out the door.

She calculated that in just a short while, she had sold more than 200 yuan worth of goods, which was more than last night! How could he sell goods even when eating? What was wrong with his second brother's brain?

Song Ye raised the corner of his mouth proudly, "So, in the end, it was my second brother who treated me to the barbecue! You should have a long-term vision in the future and stop being so stingy!"

"Hmph! You stinky second brother! What's wrong with me just scratching your face?" Song Haixia made a face and stuck out her tongue at him.

Song Ye had no choice but to cover her face. "Sister, you are too ugly like this. Don't let anyone see you, or you will never get married!"

"Ah! Bad guy! I'm going to fight you!" Song Haixia was embarrassed and annoyed, her face turned red and she stomped her feet in anger.

"Hehehe, okay, sister, come up quickly, we still have to go to the East Gate, don't you want to make money?"

When Song Haixia heard that she had to go to make money, she was no longer angry. Even if her second brother was abominable, he couldn't go against money! Now she would get angry with anyone who dared to stop her from making money!

I rode a tricycle to the Dongmen Market, and sure enough, there were a lot of people here, and all those coming and going were women out shopping.

Song Ye shouted out his wares, which soon attracted a lot of onlookers.

“There are fresh fruits and vegetables in the middle of winter, it looks pretty good!”

"I want to buy some, but I just asked and the price is too expensive. I really can't afford it!"

"You guys buy it, you're all rich people, I'm leaving first!"

"I like that cucumber, so I bought two to make a cold dish. I really don't want to eat cabbage and potatoes anymore."

"It's not that good. We cook the same few dishes over and over again every day. The children are tired of eating meat now. I'll just buy two cucumbers. No matter how hard it is, I can't let the children suffer."

The most fearful thing about doing business is not being able to open. Once you open, you can’t stop. More and more people gather here, and Song Ye can only keep replenishing the stock.

He estimated that he sold more than 200 kilograms of cucumbers in one afternoon. Among the fruits, oranges were the best-selling, with about 50 sold. Other fruits and vegetables were also bought.

By dinner time, there were fewer people.

Song Ye first found a hotel close to the East Gate to settle down, then took his sister out for a hotpot meal, and used the same trick again to sell a lot of cucumbers.

"Sister, you're tired after a day's work. Just rest in the hotel. I can go to the hospital by myself. I guess Yu Gui is waiting for you there." Song Ye said with concern as he looked at his sister's skinny face.

Song Haixia shook her head, "No, I'm not tired at all, don't stop me from making money!"

Song Ye held his forehead helplessly, this little money-grubber! He couldn't persuade her, so he had to go with her.

When we arrived at the hospital entrance, there were already quite a few people queuing up at the stall where we had set up yesterday, and Yu Gui was there maintaining order.

"Look! They are coming!" someone shouted, and everyone looked at Song Ye and the other person.

"Brother Song, you are finally here. I thought you had something to do and wouldn't come today!" Yu Gui wiped the hot sweat from his forehead and smiled innocently.

"They are all family members of hospitalized patients. They heard that the fruits you sell are good for health. They have been waiting here for a long time. Hurry up!"

Song Ye patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Yu, thank you for your hard work."

Yu Gui chuckled, "As I should. My mother had a full-body checkup this morning, and the doctor said she can go home for the New Year. Brother, you don't know how grateful I am!"

"Isn't that great? A family should be together." Song Ye said with emotion.

"Boss, stop talking. Can you sell the fruit first?" someone shouted anxiously.

Song Ye quickly greeted the guests, "Don't worry, everyone, we have everything, we have everything!"

Today's customer flow and purchasing power have greatly increased. No matter what kind of fruit, everyone buys at least ten. In a short while, the entire display cabinet is almost sold out, and Song Ye has to secretly restock it.

Song Haixia finally realized something was wrong. She remembered that they had no other goods except this display cabinet. They had been selling it since last night, so why haven’t they sold out yet?

Two hours later, the crowd dispersed. Except for Song Ye, the other three looked exhausted, especially Song Haixia, who felt like she was about to collapse from exhaustion.

Song Ye checked the money in his hand. He sold a total of 356 yuan that night. He took out 300 yuan as cost and divided the remaining 56 yuan between Yu Gui and Song Haixia, 28 yuan each.

"No, no, I can't take this money!" Yu Gui quickly refused. He was so tired from selling wontons that he could not even straighten his back. He only made 5 yuan a day at most. As a result, Song Ye gave him 28 yuan at once. This was too much!

Song Ye glared, "Take it quickly, don't make me say it a second time! My sister and I are going home tomorrow, how can you survive in the county without any money? Just consider the extra money as my New Year bonus."
