Chen Xu moved quickly, and in a few minutes, he loaded several students with chestnuts one after another.

They took the chestnut and saw that Chen Xu didn't use the scale, and some of them were a little more daring, and immediately raised their own doubts.

Chen Xu was not vague, and borrowed a pole from the old lady of the wonton shop, and weighed it on the spot to several students who questioned.

The students looked at the number that was almost the same as the number of pounds they bought, and they were stunned on the spot.

Looking at Chen Xu's gaze, it also changed directly from questioning to admiration! The

first batch of chestnuts were sold, and the students who were reluctant to pay at the beginning asked for one or two from their classmates and peeled them into their mouths.

The mouth of the chestnut is full of sweetness, it is almost sweet to the stomach from the inside out!

But all the students who have eaten this chestnut immediately turned around and ran to Chen Xu's stall to buy fried chestnuts.

In less than ten minutes, Chen Xu's stall was full of students.

Here is only a corner from the main street, and the smell of fried chestnuts drifts away, and after a while, it attracts many people who rush to gather.

Seeing the lively chestnut stall at the entrance of the school, the diners who came out with bags of chestnuts quickly followed one by one.

In less than half an hour, there were already thirty or forty people in front of Chen Xu's stall, and the water could not leak.

The folded bag ran out in a short time, and Chen Xu could only fold it while packing the money, but fortunately, his hands and feet were fast, and he didn't delay too much.

Xiao Yuer was woken up by the noisy human voice, sat up in the car, saw his busy father, quickly stumbled off the carriage, and walked to Chen Xu's side.

She didn't bother Chen Xu either, just quietly stared at her father tearing the book and folding the triangle bag.

After reading it a few times, when Chen Xu was loading the chestnut, he stepped forward a few steps and tore off a page of paper with Chen Xu's appearance.

When Chen Xu loaded another pound of chestnuts for a guest, and then went to tear the book, he saw the little guy next to him who was seriously folding the book.

Xiao Yu'er noticed his father's gaze and raised his head, "Qiao, Yu'er help!"

After speaking, he handed the folded triangular bag in his hand to Chen Xu.

Chen Xu's heart softened, and he smiled and stretched out his hand to take it, "The fish is awesome!"

After speaking, he plunged into the busyness of collecting money and loading chestnuts.

Xiao Yuer got her father's praise, grinned, showed a small white tooth, and folded the triangle bag harder.

Side.

While the old lady was busy, she saw the scene of this father and daughter laughing, and her face unconsciously showed a smile.

Her wife, who had just come to help with her, saw that her old woman was in a trance and touched her arm.

"What do you think?"

said the old lady with a smile on her face, recalling the past, "When I was a child, I was like this little girl, I was very sensible, and I was still unsteady walking, so I helped me make wontons and do housework."

When the old man heard his wife's words, his face also burst into a smile, "But no, every time I come back with her mother, I clamore to help me work." "

......

In less than five hours, Chen Xu's more than 100 pounds of chestnuts were sold.

After selling the chestnuts, Chen Xu did not delay, turned off the fire, closed the stall, carried everything into the car, vacated the vacant land for the old lady, and paid the other party a dollar.

"Alas, don't you say Wumao, what are you doing for me so much?"

the old lady looked at the Mao ticket that Chen Xu stuffed into her hand and asked puzzled.

Although everyone lacks money in this era, it is obvious that Chen Xu is much shorter than her older two.

Chen Xu held Xiao Yu'er in one hand and said with a smile, "If it weren't for you today, I would have to find another location to set up a stall, and it might not be so good to sell."

Chen Xu said this, paused, and continued, "And in the future, I may still bother you here, give you more rent every day, do you see?" This

location is really good to sell fried chestnuts, and Chen Xu also found that most of the people who came to buy chestnuts today were residents and students in the town, and the money was more than he thought.

In the future, in addition to the three-day rush market, he can usually come and sell it.

The latter instantly understood what Chen Xu meant, and quickly pulled out a few gross tickets in his hand and stuffed them back into Chen Xu's hands, and said without refusal, "The rent of 5 Mao is no longer cheap, and we can't use that paper, it's not valuable, it's polite."

"If you want to continue renting a stall with me in the future, don't be so polite with me."

Chen Xu originally wanted to stuff the money back, but when the old lady said this, the hand that had just stretched out froze in the air.

Chen Xu was a little crying and laughing, and could only take the money back, "Okay, then I won't be polite to you."

After speaking, he looked at the little fish, "Yu'er, do you want to eat wontons?" Although

the little guy ate a lot of chestnuts in the morning, he also craved the wontons that had been wafting with fragrance.

Hearing my father's inquiry, I couldn't help but say, and quickly nodded, "Think!" "

Okay, then we'll eat wontons at noon today." Chen Xu answered his daughter, then turned his head to the old lady and spoke, "Grandma, three bowls of wontons!" The old

man did not charge him much money, he would take care of the business, and give some gifts for the festival in the future.

After a morning together, the more the old lady looked at the young man, the more she felt pleasant, immediately nodded, beckoned the two to sit down, and quickly cooked three large bowls of wontons for the two.

Chen Xu was also busy all morning, and he didn't have the effort to eat a few chestnuts.

Now hungry chest against back.

As soon as the hot wontons were served, they quickly beckoned the little fish to eat.

I don't know if it's too hungry or this old lady's skill in cooking wontons.

Chen Xu felt that this wonton was simply more delicious than many mountain and sea delicacies he had eaten in his previous life.

After eating two large bowls, he didn't feel happy enough, and beckoned the old lady to bring him two more bowls.

And since birth, for the first time I ate this kind of tender and delicious food, Xiaoyu also drained a large bowl in one go, and drank all the soup base, and the little belly was directly bulging.

"Mother-in-law cooked, wontons, very delicious!" The

little guy didn't have much vocabulary, so he could only say while learning how his father looked when he praised her, giving her mother-in-law a thumbs up, making the second elder on the side laugh happily.

If it weren't for the fact that the little one had already eaten an adult's amount, afraid that she would break it, the second elder couldn't help but want to add a dozen or twenty more wontons to her bowl.

After eating the wontons, Chen Xu took out the money for selling chestnuts today and counted them.

He sold a total of 55 pounds of chestnuts for 55 yuan, six cents and five cents

! Even if the cost of about 15 yuan is removed, the net profit is more than 40 yuan! In

one morning, he earned more than a month's salary of ordinary workers in the city, and this chestnut was worth selling!

Plus the three pieces of nine cents left in his pocket before.

Chen Xu now had a total of fifty-nine pieces in his pocket.

In this era, it's a lot of money!
