Chapter 20: Business

"Jin Ji."

"No way, Sister? Are you going to sell the pancakes to Jin Ji?"

If it was before yesterday, she might have tried this. However, after experiencing the incident at Rongen Hall, she understood that a small village girl like her was not worthy of these shops.

"Let's go opposite Jin Ji."

Su Ergou was dumbfounded. "Sister, Jin Ji sells snacks! How many have set up shop to compete with Jin Ji only to close down? Can we win against Jin Ji?"

Su Xiaoxiao said casually, "Snatch business? You're overthinking. We cant sell to that many people with two baskets of pancakes. However, it's good that you have this ambition. Perhaps one day, we can really snatch business from Jin Ji."

Su Ergou muttered, "Sister, why do you like to daydream more than me?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. "Alright, we'll find out soon."

In ancient times, there were no city enforcement officers. As long as they did not block the entrance of the shop, they could usually set up stalls where they liked. Of course, if they affected the operation of the shop, they would be chased away by the shop owners.

The jewelry shop opposite Jin Ji opened late. It was the right time to set up a stall.

The first pot of osmanthus cake was about to be ready. There was a long line at the door.

The more Su Ergou looked at them, the more he felt that he might not be able to sell any of them today.

Su Xiaoxiao found a suitable spot and took out the biscuit.

They didn't have a stall. Before leaving, Su Xiaoxiao made a bamboo sieve tray around her neck.

The golden pastry was placed neatly on the tray. If it were any other vendor, they might not have attracted much attention.

But Su Xiaoxiao was a 200-pound fatty!

Who would walk over and not look at her twice?

Even those who were waiting in line for Jin's snacks couldn't help but look at her frequently.

"Sister, let me serve the pancakes," said Su Ergou.

"No need. You have another mission." Su Xiaoxiao picked up a pastry and handed it to Su Ergou. "Eat."

Su Ergou: "Aren't we selling it?"

Su Xiaoxiao said, "You don't understand. This is called eating broadcast."

Su Ergou was speechless.

Su Ergou was already used to his sister's abnormal behavior after she broke her head. Since his sister wanted him to eat it, he would eat it.

When he was on the third pancake, a young girl finally couldn't take it anymore. She pulled her mother's hand and said, "Mom, I want to eat that."

The mother and daughter walked forward.

The woman asked, "How much are your pancakes?"

Su Xiaoxiao said, "Ten copper coins for one. There are three flavors. The one with white sesame has red bean filling, the one with black sesame has dried vegetable meat filling, and the one with double sesame has green bean filling."

The woman frowned and said, "Meat buns are only two copper coins each. You're selling a palm-sized pancake for ten copper coins. It's too expensive!"

Su Xiaoxiao explained patiently, "There's a lot of sugar. It's very sweet. There's meat in the dried plum vegetables and there's a lot of filling."

In ancient times, sugar was expensive. The cost was obvious. This was already the price of conscience.

"Why don't you try it first? You can buy it if it's delicious."

"Ah…"

The woman was stunned.

Su Xiaoxiao wrapped her hand in clean gauze and cut three pancakes. She let the woman and her child try a small piece of each flavor.

"Mom! It's delicious!"

For once, the woman did not retort.

She thought that the snacks sold by a village girl would not taste good, but who knew that it was so delicious?

Moreover, she noticed that Little Fatty's actions when cutting the pancakes were very clean.

"Two of each," the woman said.

Su Xiaoxiao took out a clean bamboo leaf pancake. "I'll give you an extra one since you're our first customer. Which flavor do you want?"

"Which one do you like best?" the woman asked her daughter.

The little girl said straightforwardly, "I like them all!"
