Chapter 28 Admire
Everyone looked at the color and the size of the slices and thought it was really good.
Mainly because when Jiang Zhiluo was boiled with brown sugar, Lingquan water was also used, which is a good thing.
Although it is just a little bit, it is enough to improve the quality of brown sugar by several levels.
Eating it is indeed good for your health.
Some people were a little moved just by looking at the brown sugar, but everyone is used to bargaining.
“If it’s a bit expensive, it can’t be cheaper.”
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said: "This brown sugar is not ordinary brown sugar. It was brought over from the capital by a distant relative of mine. One or two cents is really not expensive. Let's go back and drink it by soaking it in hot water and boiling brown sugar eggs with it." Everything you eat is good for your health…”
“After you buy it and drink it, everyone will know whether our brown sugar is good or not. The quality is definitely not fake.”
With spiritual spring water, Jiang Zhiluo naturally dared to speak like this.
“And I really don’t have much with me. It may be gone in a while.”
While he was talking, women came around one after another to take a look at the situation.
When some men who ran boats heard this, they thought of coming over to take a look and buy a few pieces for their wives to take care of themselves.
Living on the water all year round, the cold is severe, so I want to buy it back to recuperate my body.
“They sell brown sugar for two cents a piece. Our brown sugar is good brown sugar. You will definitely feel good after buying it home and drinking it.”
Because she had inspected the market, Jiang Zhiluo knew that brown sugar was scarce, so she did not engage in any promotional activities.
Soon someone said directly: "Give me six yuan, I will buy six yuan."
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "Okay, I'll give you six yuan."
Mrs. Cui originally followed Jiang Zhiluo, but she was squeezed out after a while.
Jiang Zhiluo turned around and didn't see Mrs. Cui. She looked out and said, "Mom, come here."
“Ai!”
Mrs. Cui hurriedly squeezed in and helped Jiang Zhiluo collect the money.
Mrs. Cui collected the money while Jiang Zhiluo wrapped brown sugar for everyone.
“I, I’ll come, give me ten yuan.”
When Jiang Zhiluo heard that it was ten yuan, she happily gave her ten yuan, and Mrs. Cui was responsible for collecting the copper coins.
Mrs. Cui’s hands were trembling slightly as she counted the coins she received. She opened her eyes wide and couldn’t believe it.
Feeling a bit unreal.
“I’ll buy two pieces. I’ll soak them in water and drink them first to see if they taste good.”
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said: "Don't worry, our brown sugar is absolutely good. After you drink it, you will want to buy it next time. Moreover, after drinking it, your complexion will be rosy and your body will become healthier."
“The little girl has a beautiful smile and a sweet mouth.”
Everyone looked at Mrs. Cui and Jiang Zhiluo and felt that although they were wearing coarse linen clothes, they looked clean and refreshing. Especially when she smiled, her smile was as sweet and soft as glutinous rice candy.
“Thank you sister for the compliment.”
When Jiang Zhiluo calls everyone, she calls them young.
So when everyone listened, they couldn't help but smile on their faces.
This one bought two yuan, and the other one bought three or four yuan. There were only forty-one pieces of brown sugar in the basket, and they were all sold out in a short time.
“I’m sorry, there is no more brown sugar, they are all sold out.”
Jiang Zhiluo guessed that the business would be good, but she didn't expect it to be so good that it would be sold out in such a short time.
“What, wasn’t there a basket just now? Why is it gone?”
“Yes, I turned around and got the money, but when I came back it was gone.”
“Girl, are you really out of here?”
“Yes, we are about to buy it.”
Some people hesitated at first. After hesitating for a while, the brown sugar was gone by the time they got back to the boat to get the money.
Some people also set up stalls at the pier. They originally planned to buy a few pieces of brown sugar for their daughters, but they hesitated and came late and couldn't buy any.
Although there are good things in the first place, everyone is used to waiting and watching.
But when they thought that everything was sold out, everyone felt a little upset and felt that they should have bought it earlier.
This makes me want to buy it even more. Jiang Zhiluo said: "Sisters, it is really gone."
“Perhaps everyone wanted to buy the brown sugar I sold because of its good quality and large size, so it was sold out quickly.”
When Jiang Zhiluo said this, everyone looked even worse.
Those who were hesitant at first thought that they should buy it.
Jiang Zhiluo looked at everyone's expressions and sighed in her heart.
That's why brown sugar is scarce in the north.
If there were sugar cane in the south, it would probably not be so scarce.
So don’t worry about selling something good. Some people see that business is good and learn to imitate.
Brown sugar can only be sold like this if there is a supply of it.
Even if the boatman saw that brown sugar was good, it would not be cost-effective to transport it from the south and sell it.
Not to mention that the price of sugar in this era is not cheap, the sugar making technology is not very mature, and the cost of transporting it back and forth is not cost-effective. It is better to use ships to transfer other goods.
Things like silk porcelain.
So Jiang Zhiluo was very relieved.
“Then will you come over tomorrow to sell brown sugar?”
"Little girl, do you still have brown sugar in your hand? If you come back, I will buy more."
Everyone looked at Jiang Zhiluo expectantly.
Jiang Zhiluo deliberately frowned and said: "I don't know if there are any goods left. I need to ask my relatives. You also know that brown sugar is in short supply. If we don't need to subsidize our family, we don't want to sell it at this time... "
Jiang Zhiluo also said this deliberately to open up sales for the future brown sugar business.
After raising everyone's hearts, Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said: "But if I come, I will still be here at the dock and come over in the morning."
Once everyone heard this, they felt relieved.
I guess there is a high probability that this little girl will come over to sell brown sugar.
Mrs. Cui stood there, a little messy in the wind.
Thinking to myself, where is she and what is she doing.
Are all the copper coins in the purse in your arms real?
She really wanted to count them now, but she was afraid of attracting attention, so she could only stand stiffly like that.
Don’t even know what to do.
Just watching Jiang Zhiluo being surrounded by some women talking, she was able to deal with everyone easily.
Mrs. Cui showed admiration.
She was thinking about selling brown sugar last night and didn't know if she could sell it. She was a little worried and tossed and turned in the middle of the night before falling asleep.
After Jiang Zhiluo took Mrs. Cui away and walked far away, Mrs. Cui came back to her senses and lowered her voice excitedly: "Zhiluo, did you really sell them all so quickly?"
Who would have thought that beets can be used to make brown sugar?
I really made money from this.
Jiang Zhiluo smiled and said, "Mom, when I was cutting the brown sugar this morning, I counted it. There were forty-one in total, so I sold it for eighty-two cents."
This is her first pot of gold since coming to ancient times, and Jiang Zhiluo is very happy.
“Eighty-two cents!”
Mrs. Cui opened her mouth wide.
Eighty taels of silver a day, which is about two and a half taels of silver a month.
This is simply unthinkable.
She carried her money bag carefully, and she was a little afraid to take a big step when walking, and she looked around carefully.
Mrs. Cui handed the money bag in her hand to Jiang Zhiluo and said, "Zhiluo, you better hold it. I always feel uncomfortable holding it."
This is the money Zhiluo earned, and she is afraid of losing it.
Jiang Zhiluo was not pretentious. People in the town were really worried about holding it. She would be safe if she put it in the space. "Okay, I'll take it first, mother, and we'll count it carefully when we get home."
