Seed dealers in ancient times

The stalls were set up early, and there were not many customers.

At the time of Chen, the streets and alleys began to be lively. There were tourists wearing flowers and going out of the street everywhere. There were many people parading the streets and doing small businesses. There were laughing, chatting and shouting everywhere.

Zheng Jiangting has sold dozens of potato flowers. Tourists buy potato flowers as a snack and eat them on the street. Some people will inquire and buy them when they see the freshness. People who are here today are willing to spend money. Now, there are more and more people waiting for Potato Flowers outside the small stall where Zheng Jiang stopped. Because the fried potatoes are not visible in a circle, the buyers consciously lined up.

"Why hasn't this reached us yet? There are too many people."

"It's also on sale over there, and there are fewer people, why don't we go over and buy it."

"It's all lined up here, and it's too late to go there."

The three little girls in the middle of the line chattered endlessly, they were too short to see the fried potatoes but couldn't see them, the two tall men in the front row completely blocked their view and could only smell the aroma of fried potatoes Wait anxiously.

"Yingying, you have brought enough money today, don't spend all your money because of gluttony and have no money to buy lanterns at night."

Wang Yingying pursed her mouth: "Just now I asked the people in front of me, and they said that a small portion of potato flowers only costs six yuan. Isn't it enough to have some fresh food after saving so much money? Everyone said that the potato flowers here are good. Eat, when the time comes, buy it and join Caitao and the others to keep their greedy eyes."

The other little girl nodded: "I heard that there is a restaurant in Wangmin Street that also serves potato-cooked vegetables. It's very delicious. I went to the tailor's shop over there to make clothes a while ago and saw that there were a lot of customers there. I thought that too. I went to try it, but there is no place."

"My father has been to that restaurant. Although the restaurant is not big, the food is very rare. There are no other restaurants and restaurants. At the beginning of the month, my father ordered a table of antiques to cook there for guests."

"Yes, if there is a chance, we will go together."

Wang Yingying listened to the happy discussion between the two and never interrupted. Of course, she knew where the restaurant they were talking about was and who opened it. Before, her mother always talked to her ears about the fact that the Zheng family is now booming and the business is doing better. Their family is okay, Yunyun, she is so focused on her cousin Xiucai, how can she listen to these words.

Now I suddenly heard friends talking about it, and I know how well the Zheng family's business is doing. Back then, my mother asked her to get closer to the eldest brother of the Zheng family. She dismissed it, but now she regrets it a bit. Well, the original two families are still neighbors, so I didn't eat a single meal.

"Yingying, do you want to go together? Later, let's taste the potatoes. If they are delicious, let's go to the restaurant and eat potatoes."

"Is there anything good to go, the shop owner and I are still neighbors."

The two little girls were very surprised when they heard the words: "I haven't heard you talk about it before."

"Before when the Zheng family was about to open a restaurant, they couldn't find a restaurant, so my father introduced it to them." Wang Yingying half-truthfully half-truthed in order to make a point.

"No way, the business is so good, why can't you find a shop?"

"Large or small portion of potatoes?"

Wang Yingying turned her head and was about to argue, when suddenly a familiar male voice came from above her head. She turned her head in panic, and happened to see the peddler turned out to be Zheng Jiangting, and suddenly felt a sense of embarrassment of being caught: "Zheng Jiangting , Brother Zheng Jiangting."

Zheng Jiangting looked familiar at the little girl, but couldn't remember who it was for a while.

"Yingying, do you know the boss?"

The little girl at the back saw that the peddler was young, tall and handsome, and seeing Wang Yingying's acquaintance with him, she couldn't help but tugged at the hem of her clothes excitedly.

When Zheng Jiangting heard this name, he suddenly remembered that she was the daughter of the shopkeeper Wang in the alley. She seemed to have met her once before, but her mother was very enthusiastic. Every time she passed by, she would pull him to have a chat, but he didn't know much about it. Talking with him, he would ask him how his business is or if he has a betrothed person. If he asks too much, he will get annoyed. When he passes by the gate of Wang's house, he will first check to see if Mrs. Wang and Liu are outside, so that he can avoid it. .

But after all, they are neighbors, and there was no confrontation. Zheng Jiangting greeted the little girl very kindly: "You came out to parade so early?"

Listening to her kind tone, Wang Yingying thought that what she just said hadn't been heard, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing her friend behind her who couldn't hold back her emotions, she purposely got close to Zheng Jiangting and said, "Well, we still have to buy lanterns. Didn’t eldest brother open a shop in Wangmin Street? Why did he come to sell things on the side of the moat.”

"There are people watching over there, so it doesn't matter if I don't go. There are many tourists on the main street here, and the things are easy to sell." Zheng Jiang stopped to accompany the potatoes quickly, and didn't ask people whether they want large or small portions. It seemed that the little sister in the neighborhood was greedy, so she gave the amount of eight Wen according to the price of Liu Wen: "Okay, be careful."

The three little girls took potato flowers and left the team only to find out that the price was the same, but Wang Yingying's was much more. Immediately, they were both envious and excited, and they were not in a hurry to eat, so they insisted on dragging Wang Yingying to explain clearly.

Wang Yingying's self-esteem was greatly satisfied, and the corners of her mouth could not be suppressed: "Oh, what are you doing, he is the owner of the restaurant you said, and you still don't believe me when I tell you that he is my neighbor."

The two little girls stared at the large portion of potato blossoms in her hand: "Nowadays, if you don't believe it, you believe it. Tell me, why did you give you a large portion? Is it just because you are a neighbor?"

Wang Yingying moved her eyes: "How do I know, but I heard that Madam Zheng's family would often come to sit at home, and I don't know what to talk about."

It is said that the two little girls are not hiding their jealousy. Today is the Spring Festival, and the women's careful thinking is much bolder than in the past: "Your eldest brother of the Zheng family is so handsome. He treats you well, and the family business is booming. What do you mean?"

Wang Yingying shrugged: "Look again."

"If you don't mean that, I can go back and ask daddy to find a matchmaker." The little girl with long braids muttered, "Anyway, after the Spring Festival, many men and women will look for a matchmaker, and it's not a joke for women to find a matchmaker." .”

"You think it's beautiful!"

Chu Xian stood by and listened to the chatting and laughing of the three little girls, glanced at the direction in which they were leaving, and walked towards Zheng Jiang's parked cart.

Zheng Jiang was sweating on his brow, and the weather was hot today and he was leaning against a stove, and the fried potatoes and seasoning were tossing back and forth, which made it even hotter. However, he didn't get a response, let alone a cold face.

When someone approached, he asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"nothing."

Zheng Jiang stopped to look at the man with a businessman's smile on his face, he only cared about collecting money and didn't look at him. Things get angry.

But this can't stop kissing him because of anger!

Zheng Jiangting gave a dry cough, and coaxed in people's ears while holding the oiled paper: "Can't I be wrong, I will buy you a lantern tonight."

Chu Xian sneered in her heart, admitting so quickly, she always wanted to buy something to coax him.

He glanced at him: "When?"

"I'll go to close the stall later, and let's go to see the lanterns together at night."

Chu Xian's face softened a lot, and he took the oil paper from his hand: "You just fry it, I will do it."

It was much more convenient for two people to guard the stall, and there were so many people that the wait was not so urgent. On the other hand, Cai Lin was out of control when he yelled, and there was a long queue in front of the stall. His fried potatoes were better than Zheng Jiang's. If you leave it for a longer period of time, the outer skin will be more crispy, and it will be very crispy when braised with soy sauce.

Some customers spend extravagantly. They bought the one from Zheng Jiangting’s side and went to buy the one from Cai Lin’s. They also compared the tastes of the two sides. The final conclusion is that the one from Cai Lin’s side is more crispy, and the seasoning from Zheng Jiangting’s side The ingredients are more delicious.

In fact, the food is the same, but the time for filling and frying is different for each person, and the final taste is also different. Some customers like Zheng Jiangding’s side, while others like Cai Lin’s. Time is hard to tell.

Cai Lin saw that his business was full of energy, and his back was wet with sweat, but he was reluctant to take a break, and had been busy all morning.

There were a little less guests at noon, and most of them went to eat. Chu Xian went to buy tea in the tea shed on the side while his hands were loose, but the boss stopped him when he was about to pay.

"Thanks to the two of you setting up a stall here today, the business of my tea shed has also improved. The customers who ate potato flowers refilled their tea here several times, and I also made a lot of money. This tea Just treat it as an invitation to drink."

Chu Xian smiled lightly: "The boss is polite, I haven't thanked you for borrowing your land."

The boss happily waved his hands: "I wish you could come here every day."

Chu Xian gave the tea to Cai Lin and Zheng Jiangting respectively: "The owner of the tea shed is pretty nice."

Zheng Jiang took a sip of tea to quench his thirst, and he felt much more comfortable. He looked at the little brother standing beside him, with red lips under his fair side face, and he handed the tea bowl to the man's mouth: " Do you want to take a sip?"

Chu Xian counted the copper coins: "Who wants to drink what you have drunk?"

Zheng Jiang didn't let go: "Drink a little, don't be thirsty."

Chu Xian couldn't be bothered to push him, so she took a sip, and Zheng Jiang stopped to take a sip of tea with the place where he drank it, and was immediately satisfied.

He packed a portion of potatoes and asked Brother Xian to send them to the owner of the tea shed, firstly to let people try something new, and secondly to thank him for the tea.

As soon as Chu Xian walked away, Cai Lin approached her with her back feet, raised her nose and said, "You guys really have a cup of tea on the street, can you be more tired?"

Zheng Jiangting was still a little embarrassed to be caught, but he thought about it, he had heard Cai Lin talking about Lin Geer a lot in the past, and now it should make him jealous: "You are quite sharp-eyed. .”

Cai Lin snorted, and then he got down to business: "Nowadays I can also yell and sell it, why don't we sell it separately, and I will push the cart along the street to sell it, and if you stay here, you will sell it at that time." faster."

In fact, there are not many potatoes left in Zheng Jiangting's place, and he can make [-] big ones at most. He thought he had prepared enough potatoes, but unexpectedly, he underestimated the number of customers today, but it's better to sell them out sooner. Go back and tidy up and go to see the lanterns at night.

"Okay, you can walk along the street again, when you get familiar with the road, you can sell it by yourself."
