Although the saying goes that the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, but if you want something to sell well, publicity is still essential.

Their stalls are small and don't need to be so complicated. They just shout loudly to let passers-by know what they are selling here, and it's enough to make the stall lively.

There were a lot of people at the pier. When they shouted loudly, people who liked the fun turned back subconsciously, and then the aroma of the hot soup floated out. No need to say hello, naturally, people came around.

"Brother, what are you selling? It smells so fragrant, how do you sell it?"

First came a few bearded men, dressed in clothes and with a big knife on their waists. At first glance, they were the guards on the merchant ship. The boat has not stopped in the morning, and it is estimated that they stayed overnight.

This kind of merchant ship escort pays a lot, and it is calculated in two, and most men are willing to eat and drink outside.

"It's called Chuanchuan. It has both spicy and not spicy flavors. Vegetarian dishes are a piece of cake, and meat dishes are a piece of cake. You choose to cook them together. The soup base is secretly made by my family. It is the only one in the whole Tongniu County. It just opened today. A few eldest brothers happened to buy ten strings and get two more strings, how about a few eldest brothers try something new?"

Huo Chengyi estimated the identities of several men, and introduced them warmly with a smile, without the jerkyness of setting up a stall for the first time. , extremely skilled.

"Choose it and put it in here." Zhou Weibai responded quickly, and then handed over a small dustpan.

The soup at the bottom of the pot and the skewered dishes are separated. All the dishes are neatly placed next to it. Huo Chengyi also made a simple dust cover with white gauze to cover it. It looks clean. Zhou Dahua praised it just now. He has a mind.

The soup base is also divided into spicy and non-spicy, and people with both tastes have taken care of it.

"Buy ten bunches and get two bunches? Meat ones are also offered?"

A few big men were a little greedy and wanted to try it when they smelled it, but they were even more excited when they heard that there was a free delivery.

They do not lack these few pennies, but the common people have the mentality of taking advantage, and the passers-by who hear these words also have the illusion that their eyes suddenly light up.

"Send, no matter the meat or vegetables, if you get more than ten strings, you can send two more strings. You can choose any, and the new booth will open to give you an auspicious one. While supplies last, it's first come first served."

Huo Chengyi deliberately raised his voice, enough to let the people on the sidelines wait and see. people hear.

He thought about the idea of ​​buying more and giving away at home. This is the most commonly used sales method in modern times, and it uses the heart of customers to take advantage.

Chuanchuan is always based on quantity. As long as you sell more, you are not afraid of losing money. A potato and winter melon can be skewered. How much is the gross profit? Neither earn nor lose.

Even the meat skewers are also delivered, which are so affordable, and they are fresh to eat, and they have to try it for a few cents. Several big men immediately took a dustpan and went to choose dishes.

Because I was afraid that the taste would not be good, and I just had the mentality of trying new things, everyone chose not many, one person and ten strings, compared to collecting enough to send.

Huo Chengyi didn't show any displeasure, he still started to cook the dishes with a smile on his face, and Zhou Weibai and Zhou Dahua next to him helped to count the money and divide the labor.

"Give me a dustpan and I want it too." A few big men started, and passers-by who were attracted by the fragrance also ran over to try it.

The taste of the main soup base is really fragrant, and most people in Tongniu County are addicted to spicy food. As soon as this fragrance smells, all the greedy worms in the stomach will wake up.

Hot pot skewers are a delicacy that has swept countless people in modern times. Although there are still some missing ingredients, the taste is not as good as modern times, but Huo Chengyi is confident enough to buy the taste of people here.

The first few big men were conquered by the taste of this string of flavors after taking the first bite. The salty and spicy taste spread on the tongue, and the stimulation of the pepper captured the taste buds in an instant, igniting the silent appetite.

Even if it is not suitable for eating too oily and stimulating food in the morning, it is not enough to resist such delicious comfort for the first time.

There is a white soup that can't be spicy. The bone soup that has been boiled for a night is very thick. This kind of soup is best to eat vegetables, and an ordinary cabbage can also taste the delicious meat.

"It's delicious, it's spicy enough!"

"It's delicious even if it's not spicy, this cabbage tastes like meat."

"Give me another ten skewers."

The big guys who started eating were the first to finish it. I have a big appetite, and chili peppers are the most stimulating to my appetite. After eating, I shouted a word, and took the dustpan and ran to pack ten strings.

No one is a fool, especially those who walk outside all the year round, they can't judge people by their appearance, they are all smart.

"Okay, Aunt Xiaobai Zhou, count the eldest brothers quickly."

Huo Chengyi still had a full smile on his face, and this expression was needed to open the door to do business to make customers feel comfortable and in a good mood.

Although the counts are still arranged one by one, and there is no special case of who comes first, the few big men inexplicably felt that they seemed to be valued when they heard his words, and they felt very comfortable.

"Hey, brother, what do you eat?"

These big men are likely to be foodies. Those with sharp eyes saw the sugar-fried chestnuts next to them. They don't know where these people came from, not even chestnuts. know.

"Sugar-fried chestnuts are suitable snacks for adults and children. If you eat them regularly, they have the benefits of strengthening the stomach and kidneys, anti-aging and prolonging life.

Huo Chengyi seized the opportunity to sell, these big men didn't seem to be the masters of lack of money, as long as they talked about spending money in their hearts, they would not be soft-hearted.

"It's really as good as you said, and it also nourishes the kidneys? Why haven't I heard of it, brother, have you tried it? Is it as good as a golden gun?" Well

, a typical man, he said so many effects. The man grasped the word "tonifying kidney", and one of them was quite interested and asked bluntly, and his voice was not small.

At this moment, a lot of people had gathered in front of their stall, and the men who heard it around couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the ladies and husbands who passed by also blushed.

Only a little white rabbit like Zhou Weibai didn't respond, with a blank look on his face, not knowing what the people around were laughing at.

I don't understand why their chestnuts are obviously eaten, why are they compared with 'golden spears'? Isn't the golden spear used for fighting? His grandfather used to have a silver spear...

Even the cheeky Huo Chengyi was choked. If it wasn't for the loud man's eyes, he would have thought he was looking for trouble. of.

How could such a joke be played in broad daylight in ancient times, he is a food stall, and snacks like fried chestnuts are aimed at women and children, so he is not allowed to do business...

The people who are with him are also Unable to hold back his laughter, the leading big man slapped the man on the head directly, and then smiled embarrassedly at him.

"Brother, don't mind, the guy who runs outside on the boat talks rough, fried chestnuts with sugar, right? My daughter-in-law and son like sweets, so give me a pound.

" Follow one person to ask for half a catty.

Everyone took the initiative to apologize and help with the business. Huo Chengyi naturally wouldn't grab the trouble and continue to carry things and do business with a smile on his face.

The beginning of everything is difficult, as long as someone takes the lead, the business will be easy to do later.

There is absolutely no doubt about the taste of the skewers, and once the appetite is opened, you will not feel the quantity yourself.

In the first two times, everyone could restrain themselves from having only ten skewers, and wanted to take advantage of the free gift, but as more and more people lined up and there were fewer and fewer dishes, those who had tasted it but had not enjoyed it would not be able to sit still. Living.

When it comes time to buy again, everyone will let go of their hands and put them in their own dustpan, worrying that they will be sold out if they wait in line for a while.

This person has a kind of heart that follows the trend and joins in the fun and compares. Seeing that the person next to him keeps taking it and takes all the dishes he wants, he is not convinced, and he also frantically puts it in his dustpan.

Anyway, I didn't feel how much I paid for it when I installed it. When I finished counting and signed the copper plate, I felt embarrassed and embarrassed to put it back. I could only buy it with gritted teeth. Also worth it.

After eating, he went back and promoted it to his friends and relatives. In addition, the fragrance at the bottom of the pot was very appealing. With the increase in the number of people at the dock, the crowd in front of Huo Chengyi's stall was also very popular, and he even brought a few people around to sell things. The stall business has also been boosted.

Chestnut sells slowly because of its high price, but it is not a fresh food. There are many people who want to try it, and the sales volume is also very good.

Huo Chengyi didn't expect the business to be better than he expected. The items that were originally planned to be sold out in one day were sold out in one morning, and many people who were attracted by the fragrance and did not eat were gathered around the stall and complained of regret.

It seems that the power of ancient and modern cuisine is powerful.

Zhou Dahua and Zhou Weibai, who followed to help, were also excited. They didn't expect business to be so good. They didn't stop to collect money from the opening of the stall, and they didn't catch their breath until the items were sold out.

All the dishes and chestnuts were sold out ahead of time. Although there are still meat dishes in the space that can be made fresh, but the space cannot be exposed. Huo Chengyi is not greedy and temporarily closed the stall. Today is a good start.

"Aunt Zhou, we've been busy all morning. Let's go to dinner and go back slowly after eating."

Huo Chengyi is not a stingy person, but today he is helping his future daughter-in-law and mother-in-law.

"Auntie still has something to do. You can take Xiaobai. You can go back after eating."

Zhou Dahua saw his business performance just now. He was able to bend and stretch, and he was smooth in handling things.

In addition, her husband and son still want to make money from Huo Chengyi, she is not stupid, her attitude is much better, at least it seems that he is not prejudiced and treated the same as ordinary villagers.

To be able to eat alone with her son is someone's dream.

Huo Chengyi didn't hesitate at all, he nodded quickly, and then stuffed 20 wen to let Zhou Dahua eat whatever he wanted. He had been busy for so long just now, and he should have given it.

Of course, his main purpose is to brush his future mother-in-law's favorability, change the original owner's bad impression, and work hard for his lofty goal of marrying a daughter-in-law.

Money is vulgar, but the effect is absolutely good. Zhou Dahua really liked him when he got the copper coins, and he thought to himself: In fact, Huo Daniu is still very good.

So she was in a good mood and gave her precious son to someone with confidence, then waved her hand, and left without taking a cloud...

After Zhou Dahua left, she pretended to be a 'dead enemy' for a long time. People are finally relieved.

"I'm almost choked to death, but luckily my mother didn't find out..." Zhou Weibai patted his chest in relief as he looked at the direction where his mother disappeared.

"That's right, don't look at who gave you the idea. You were tired just now. Come on, let's sit down and eat later. There's still some chestnuts left, so let's fill our stomach first."

Huo Chengyi has always been cheeky, Taking the credit without modesty, he took the boy by the wrist and led the man to the board of the ox cart to sit down and rest.

I also took out a packet of fried chestnuts with sugar, which was called leftovers, but it was obvious from the look of the wrapping paper that they were left on purpose. The chestnuts inside were full and sweet.

Zhou Weibai didn't notice his little thought, just because he was hungry, and he liked the taste of fried chestnuts with sugar yesterday, and he smiled at Huo Chengyi, not hypocritical, and hurriedly took it to eat.

The young man has a small face and a small mouth. When he eats, his cheeks are easily bulged, and with the expression he likes with squinting eyes, he looks like a small hamster.

When he was eating by himself, he didn't forget that there was someone next to him, he peeled one off for Huo Chengyi unconsciously, and chatted and asked questions with his cheeks puffed up.

"By the way, Brother Huo, let me ask you a question. What did you mean by what you said to those bearded men earlier? What did they say about the golden spear? Why is our chestnut related to the golden spear? There is still gold in the world. The gun you made? That's extravagant, I've seen my grandfather's silver gun, but it's actually made of iron..."

Zhou Weibai's face was full of exploration and knowledge, this question was actually what he wanted to ask his mother just now, but Business was busy and he didn't find an opportunity.

Someone who was enjoying the sweet and loving chestnut heard Dundun, and then replied solemnly:

"Well, yes, I will let you see it later."
