Chapter 21: Setting up a stall at the market
Chapter 21: Setting up a stall at the market
It was his first time setting up a stall, and no one knew much about the town's market. To be safe, Su Xingmian made a small quantity, wrapping it in oil paper he'd exchanged with the production crew: just fifty jujube cakes and fifty walnut cakes.
Because there was business to do, lunch was a little simple. He only made a pot of noodles with gravy and a few side dishes. After eating and drinking his fill, Su Xingmian set off with his sales team.
There were only three people going to the town together. In addition to Su Xingmian and Li Jianwei, there was also Shen Ci, the face of the boy band. The rest of the people had to be taken by Chu Feng to work in the fields in the afternoon.
It only takes about ten minutes to take a boat from the village to the town.
Su Xingmian happily paid the three people for the ride, then found a seat by the side and sat down. He supported his face with one hand and stared blankly at the ripples in the river caused by the oars.
The black boat swayed slowly towards the town, as if hypnotic, making Su Xingmian's eyelids start to droop. After a while, she buried her face in her arms and began to take a nap. The wind was a bit strong on the boat, and Li Jianwei was afraid that she would catch a cold, so he specially brought her a coat to put on.
"Sister Mian, we're here." Seeing that the boat was about to dock at the shore, Shen Ci reached out and patted Su Xingmian's shoulder, reminding her in a low voice.
Su Xingmian was dreaming that she was gnawing on a big chicken leg at this time. Suddenly she heard a sound and thought that the big chicken leg was trying to run away. She opened her mouth and wanted to bite it with a howl, but she not only bit nothing, but also bit the tip of her tongue. The sudden pain woke her up immediately.
Covering her mouth with her hands, Su Xingmian felt aggrieved. It must be because she hadn't eaten chicken for a long time that she was thinking about it day and night. When she made money, she would definitely buy a few more chicken legs and fry them all!
"Thank you, uncle."
After getting off the boat, Su Xingmian sweetly thanked the boatman, and then continued to ask,
"Sir, I have to trouble you again. Do you know how to get to the market?"
If you want to buy and sell things, the market is more convenient. First, there is a large flow of customers, so cakes are easy to sell; second, there are many stalls, and most of the stall owners are local residents. The prices are relatively affordable, and you can buy them back as soon as they are sold out, so you can save some walking.
"It's right next to it. Walk about a hundred meters to the left and you will see it." The old man was also very enthusiastic and pointed the way happily.
After expressing their gratitude, the three of them, along with a director and three cameramen sent by the program team, headed towards the market.
The market in the town is well managed. At a glance, every stall is very clean, and because they are set up in the open air, there are no unpleasant smells. The environment is quite good.
However, if you want to sell things at the market, you must go to the management office to go through the temporary rental procedures. Only then will you be allowed to enter.
This was something no one expected.
The rental prices are divided according to the location.
If the location is good, it costs fifty yuan a day, if the location is medium, it costs thirty yuan, and if the location is bad, it is only ten yuan.
However, they only had three dollars on them and were not allowed to bring their cell phones with them. Ten dollars was already a sky-high price for them, let alone fifty.
"Um, uncle, can I buy on credit? Can I come out and pay after the goods are sold out?" Su Xingmian asked awkwardly.
There was no other way. It was really inappropriate for two grown men to do this. She could only hope that the market leader in front of her could see that she was a little girl, understand their difficulties, and give them the place first.
Seeing the cute little girl with a camera filming behind her, even a middle-aged man who usually doesn't pay much attention to entertainment news knows that this is most likely a recording of a program.
But the market has its own rules. What if all this is just a facade to avoid paying the stall fee? After all, he has to pay the less money.
"Uncle, we've left someone here and we won't run away. Just rent the worst location for us. Please think about it. Please." Seeing the man hesitate, Su Xingmian continued shamelessly.
Of course, to alleviate the man's concerns, she grabbed the director's wrist. Obviously, this was the hostage she had chosen. Originally, the sales process didn't require a director; just following the filming would be enough, but since he was here, he might as well play a role.
If the director heard this, he would be even more speechless than he is now.
He never imagined that he, a man of 1.8 meters and weighing nearly 200 kilograms, could be lifted out by Su Xingmian with his tiny arms and legs.
It was his fault. He shouldn't have forgotten her heroic deeds when she first arrived just because Su had restrained her extraordinary strength in the past few days.
If he had known this earlier, he would have definitely stayed away.
"You seem like an open-minded person, so I'll make an exception and give you a stall on credit."
In the end, the administrator was defeated by Su Xingmian's persistence and sincerity. He accepted the hostages that Su Xingmian gave him, then wrote out a list and asked his helpers to take them to the stall.
This market has only one entrance and exit, so the stalls closer to the front of the market have higher prices. After all, most people won't go shopping again after buying what they want, so staying close to the entrance and exit gives you a chance to get some bargains.
The further you go, the lower the price will be.
Su Xingmian relied on her well-behaved and lovely image to get a stall near the end of the market.
But she is not picky. A stranger takes the risk of selling something to you on credit, so it is good enough to have it. How can she be picky?
After simply tidying up the table at the stall, the three of them laid out the things and took out the plates they brought from home. They opened a bag of each item, cut them into small pieces and placed them on the plates as tasting samples.
Everything is ready, except for the guests.
Since we don’t have any advantage in terms of geographical location, all we can do is shout at the top of our lungs.
As an idol, Shen Ci has more or less some idol baggage, so after some discussion, Shen Ci took over the task of inviting people to taste the food.
As for Su Xingmian and Li Jianwei, they were responsible for selling the goods.
"Take a look, take a look, these freshly baked red date and walnut cakes are inexpensive, delicious, and nutritious. Don't miss them if you pass by."
Su Xingmian suddenly opened his voice, and used some internal force in his voice, which scared Li Jianwei.
It would be a shame if someone doesn’t learn how to host with such a powerful voice!
Li Jianwei's occupational disease came on, and while sighing in his heart, he started to hawk his wares in imitation of others.
It turns out that this trick is effective. Many older women and girls who were shopping at the market stopped in front of the stall after hearing the sound and tasting the samples handed to them by Shen Ci.
"Little girl, how much are these snacks?" asked a kind-looking old lady.
"Grandma, this is five dollars a pack, and it's all handmade. There's absolutely no cutting corners, so you can eat it with confidence." Su Xingmian's little mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and her voice was so sweet that it could melt people's hearts.
This attitude is very satisfying, but at a price of five dollars, it is really not very beautiful.
