Yu Xiaolian carried her food box and squatted down next to a stall selling wontons. She arrived a little late and the good seats were already taken.

The stall owner selling wontons was an old man who looked to be about fifty years old. At first she thought Yu Xiaolian was just squatting there to rest.

When Yu Xiaolian opened the lid of the food box and started shouting, he immediately ran over and coaxed Yu Xiaolian away.

"Whose little girl knows the rules? Is this a place where you sell things? Let's go, let's go..."

"You sell your wontons and I sell my shortcakes. What's bothering you?"

"Hey, you little girl, are you looking for a fight?" The wonton seller held up a long big spoon, and Ben Yu Xiaolian came over with a fierce look on his face.

So fierce?

Shouldn't we argue with her for a few words, and then make a move?

Don't let her perform at all. This is...

A good man will not suffer the immediate consequences, so Yu Xiaolian picked up the food box and ran away.

After Yu Xiaolian set up a stall next to an aunt selling vegetables and eggs, she learned from the aunt that the wonton seller had the worst temper in the entire market.

God, what kind of luck does she have?

In order to thank the aunt for letting her set up a stall next to her, Yu Xiaolian wrapped two shortbread cookies for the aunt and sent them over.

After getting to know the aunt, Yu Xiaolian not only knew her name, but also some unknown things in the market.

For example, the person who collects stall fees at the vegetable market is not an official at all, but the county magistrate's brother-in-law.

For example, there is a knife sharpener on the east side of Caishikou, who is actually an executioner. As soon as he sharpens his knife at Caishikou, someone will be beheaded.

There was a shoe repairman next to the knife sharpener, but he was not just a shoe repairman, he was a cobbler.

The shoe repairman and the knife sharpener were two brothers. After the knife sharpener cut off the head, the cobbler then went to sew the head and the corpse together. What the brothers earned was the dead man's money.

Speaking of which, the job of these two cobblers is that of modern funeral organizers.

Sometimes when she encounters some unclaimed dead people, after Yu Xiaolian dissects the body, she will also sew up the body and tidy it up humanely.

She doesn't think there's anything scary about it, nor does she think there's anything bad about this job. Dealing with dead people is much easier than living people.

Seeing Yu Xiaolian stunned, Aunt Ge thought she was scared, "Hey, look at me, why are I talking to you and the little girl? I won't have nightmares when I go back to sleep tonight, right?"

Aunt Ge ran over and touched Yu Xiaolian's head, while calling her soul.

Yu Xiaolian: "..."

Why can't I call the soul at every turn?

Now when she hears the call to the soul, her heart is excited.

"Auntie, I'm not afraid."

Although Yu Xiaolian said she was not afraid, Aunt Ge did not dare to talk about the two brothers from the Ji family.

Instead, he told her some tips on doing business.

Yu Xiaolian shook her head after hearing this. Aunt Ge's so-called little trick was actually to watch people order their dishes.

If you see someone who is richly dressed, you will charge a few cents more.

Especially when I meet some women who are in charge of shopping in the house, they can pick out everything. Even if they are one or two cents tall, they won't take it seriously, as long as the food is fresh and the food is good.

"If they choose cheap wilted vegetables and buy them back, they will be scolded." Aunt Ge said, foaming at the mouth.

Although what Aunt Ge said was out of good intentions, Yu Xiaolian still believed that the price should not change from time to time, and that doing business should be based on honesty and integrity.

Yu Xiaolian smiled and thanked Aunt Ge for her kindness, and then started to shout loudly, "Short cakes, delicious short cakes, four cents each, three cents each."

Yu Xiaolian inquired about the price of shortbread cakes at the pastry shop. Some were sixty cents per catty, some were fifty cents per catty, and one catty weighed ten.

The average price is five or six cents each. She sells street stalls, so naturally she can't compare with those in shops, so she sets the price slightly lower than in shops.

As soon as Yu Xiaolian shouted, a girl came over to look at her shortcakes. Seeing that they were selling well, she took out ten cents from her purse and handed them to Yu Xiaolian, "Give me three."

"Okay!" It was opened, and Yu Xiaolian happily wrapped three shortbread cookies in oil paper and handed them over.

"Miss, I also have mung bean cake and chestnut cake here. Would you like some to try?"

Yu Xiaolian moved the shortbread cakes on the top layer of the food box to expose the mung bean cakes and chestnut cakes underneath.

When the girl heard Yu Xiaolian call her miss, her heart was filled with joy. Miss, only the daughter of a wealthy family could be called that. She was just the daughter of a pork dealer in the market, and she was actually called miss. How could she be unhappy?

He coughed slightly and picked up the lady's shelf, "I don't like mung bean cake, how can I sell chestnut cake?"

"The price is the same as the shortbread cookies, three for ten cents."

"Then give me three more chestnut cakes!"

Yu Xiaolian quickly made three chestnut cakes. The pork dealer's daughter counted another ten cents and handed them to Yu Xiaolian. When she left, she said she would come back to Yu Xiaolian's business in the future.

Yu Xiaolian kept selling until noon, and paid two cents for the stall fee to the county magistrate's brother-in-law's servant. Fortunately, she didn't bring many pastries, and she sold them all when the sun was at its highest.

The prices she sells are cheap, and many vendors in the market buy them for their children.

It's just that Yu Xiaolian didn't feel very happy when she looked at the hundreds of copper coins in the cafeteria.

How can it be possible to earn so little money in one morning?

If you want to have a shop of your own as soon as possible, it will definitely not work if you just rely on her and Sun's retail sales. Then you have to save up until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse?

On the way home, Yu Xiaolian began to think about how to wholesale the pastries.

Each pastry shop has its own pastry chef. If you want them to buy goods from you, you have to let them see new things that the chefs in their shops can't make, so that they can buy goods from her.

You don't have to worry about things like shortcakes and mung bean cakes, they can make them all, and they're all handmade.

What can be delicious and beautiful that was not available in ancient times?

After returning home, Yu Xiaolian took the notebook and entered the supermarket.

Shaqima, it didn’t exist in ancient times, it’s in the notebook.

Egg yolk pie, no, write it down in the notebook.

There is no such thing as butter rolls in Beijing. In ancient times, there was no such thing as butter. This one is probably better sold.

Yes, waffles, meatloaf, and ice cake.

Pork shop, beef jerky, cranberry bread.

That's all for now, Yu Xiaolian's lips curled up into a smile.

Tomorrow she will go from store to store to sell, whether it is a pastry shop, a restaurant, or a teahouse. As long as she can sell on her behalf and buy her goods, she doesn't have to go out to bask in the sun every day. She can only deliver the goods and wait at home to count the money.

That’s it.

I took some of the foods I planned to sell tomorrow out of the supermarket, set the prices again and again, changed them again and again, and also planned the quantity that could be delivered every day.

Although she had never done business in her previous life, she had not paid much attention to the supermarket at home.

But her parents have operated small shops and large supermarkets, and she has been familiar with them since she was a child, so it shouldn't be too bad.
