C16 condescension

Seeing that Jin Niang was completely capable of handling it, Su Mo Yan felt at ease. Jin Niang's food was very effective, even if it was boiled cabbage or radish, she would still be able to taste it.

Just by looking at her, one would feel that the food was very fragrant, giving off the feeling that the food in her hands must be very tasty.

It was likely that she herself knew this, so she sat down to eat that prawn cake not because she was hungry, but because she treated herself as a living signboard.

As expected, the moment they saw her eating, someone went up to her and inquired about it. After that, there were still many people waiting to be purchased.

After selling off the first five people, he felt a bit out of balance. Especially the sixth person, he was just one away from it. Then, he felt a bit dissatisfied.

Thus, that person asked, "Little girl, since I'm the sixth, can you also give me one?"

Jin Niang blinked and looked at the people behind her. If they were to also gift this to her, then they would definitely gift the others as well. She was a little hesitant, this was already a small transaction, how would she earn money by giving them all away?

She still wanted to earn money to buy glutinous rice wine!

Thus, he looked at the person in front of him with a bitter face, "I didn't make any money to begin with. If I send him back home, he'll really scold me." He looked miserable.

If you were to bargain with your boss, the boss would agree without hesitation. Even if you were to offer a very low price, you would definitely feel that you had suffered a loss.

On the contrary, if the boss bickered with you for a long time and finally gave in with a pained expression, even if you didn't offer a very low price, you would still feel like you had earned a lot.

Everyone was staring at Jin Niang, wanting to make the little girl give in. A single coin for a team of ordinary families was not cheap, previously, they only had a single coin for an egg, but now it had increased by a little, and it was sold for three coins and two coins.

The prawn cake had never seen it before, and just as she had said, it was indeed a fried gold color. With one look, one could tell it had used a lot of oil.

If there wasn't such an event, few would be willing to buy five at once.

Even if he bought a lot, he would feel that he had taken advantage of them. It was precisely because he had this kind of mindset that Jin Niang's business was easy to do.

Therefore, those people began to work hard, "Right, it was given to you in the beginning, how unfair would it be if you don't give it to you later on?"

In the end, Jin Niang gritted her teeth with a pained expression and nodded his head, "Alright, but I'll have to buy ten to give one to you this time. I really lost big time!"

10 was 10 gold coins, 10 gold coins was almost enough to buy 1 jin of lean meat, who would be willing to buy a few cakes?

Thus, when they heard Jin Niang's words, everyone was a little hesitant. But when they saw that Jin Niang really did not give in, there were people who bought them two for a taste, and after all, there were only a few who bought ten at once.

Because she did not do much on the first day, by the time Su Moyan came back to find her, she had already sold out. Jin Niang's face was filled with a relaxed and satisfied expression, making Su Moyan feel extremely funny.

There were a total of more than 200 of them. She had eaten one, given out 10, and now there was still some left in the basket. She only had a little more than 100 yuan in her hands.

The weather was getting hotter and hotter, but Jin Niang's little face was flushed red. She was very excited, which meant that as long as she worked hard, she would be able to support herself.

She was still trying her best to shout, but she didn't know how to shield herself from the sun.

When the weather turned hot, the number of people on the streets lessened. Su Moyan couldn't bear it any longer and went up to pull her away. "Let's go home."

Jin Niang looked at the prawn cake in the basket with a face at a loss, "But I haven't finished selling it all."

Su Moyan said, "I'm not selling it. I'll eat it when I get home." If he were to use this method to accumulate wealth, how long would it take for him to do so?

Jin Niang was a little unreconciled. If she did not dare to do all that today, could she still do more in the future?

As expected, business was not that easy. She had only accumulated some money in the early stages. As long as she could brew some wine in the future, she believed that the silver would come rolling in.

She looked at Su Moyan and asked, "You've already bought everything?"

Su Moyan showed her the herbs in her hand as well as some herbs beside her. "I've bought all of them. Let's go back."

The medicine in his hand was enough for Jin Niang to busy himself for a few days, so this was simply not a method at all.

"Then you go to the carriage and wait for me there. I'll be there shortly." In the end, she was still unwilling.

Seeing her insistence, Su Moyan felt a little helpless. She put down the things in her hands and said, "Then I'll wait for you to come with me."

Jin Niang: "You ?" Why would he want to make things difficult for himself?

The people that came to see Su Mo Yan standing beside Jin Niang couldn't help but curiously look at him. When someone came to buy the cake, Su Mo Yan would even help them collect the money. This made the woman selling noodles interested.

"Little girl, is this your brother?"

Brother? Jin Niang glanced at Su Mo Yan, although she did not say it, it could still be considered as it.

However, Su Moyan politely expressed her thanks, "My sister is still young. I can't thank you enough for taking care of her."

The woman selling vegetables laughed as she continued, "Aiyo, just by listening, I can tell that he's a scholar. His speech is very scholarly, just like the rest of us."

Jin Niang immediately followed up: "My brother is good at studying, even teachers praise him." As he spoke, his face was filled with pride.

Su Moyan: "?" How did you know? This ability to create nonsense was really something! And he didn't even know when Jin Niang had such ability to talk nonsense.

But he was a good person, even if he heard Jin Niang's nonsense, he would still be able to remain calm, and exchange greetings with others with a smile on his face.

After hearing what Jin Niang said, everyone's impression of Su Mo Yan became a little better. Scholars were usually much clearer and higher class, they looked down on people like them who did small business, but they did not expect Su Mo Yan to not care about it at all, and even helped his sister to collect the money.

In fact, Jin Niang did not expect Su Mo Yan to be so condescending as to be willing to sell prawn cake s with him, and accept the money to show his gratitude as if he was a decent person.

It was unknown whether it was because their brother and sister duo attracted people, or because Su Moyan herself attracted people, but the remaining prawn cake were quickly sold out. She left a few unsold prawn cake and asked when they would come back.

Jin Niang cheerfully told them to come back next time, but in her heart, she was rolling her eyes. Indeed, no matter what time, looks are always an advantage.

Jin Niang gave the remaining aunt selling vegetables and the couple selling noodles to each of them. Then, she smiled and pleaded, "I'll come again next time. "Thank you!"

The spaghetti seller was a little embarrassed, but later on he realised that Jin Niang's business did not have much of a conflict with them. Instead, it was the bun seller who sold a little less.

However, seeing that she was sincerely giving it to them, they accepted it. They were also extremely envious and promised to keep it for her afterwards.

Jin Niang smiled as she expressed her thanks, tidied up the basket and followed Su Mo Yan back.

Su Moyan asked after getting into the carriage, "How did you know that my studies were so good that even I, a teacher, would praise me?"

Jin Niang casually replied: "Mother said so." Then she responded, "Huh? Isn't it? " I'm so sorry, she said shamelessly.

Su Moyan: "?"

Seeing that he did not say anything, Jin Niang took out the last remaining prawn cake and wrapped them with a piece of paper before handing one to Su Moyan, "Eat!" It was almost lunchtime, and he was a bit hungry.

Su Moyan did not reject him. Right now, he had to grow his body, so he was always hungry especially quickly. A little prawn cake could be done in a few bites, but at least it could be used as a cushion.

On the way back, they met people from the same village. Seeing Su Moyan's carriage, they were tempted and wanted to sit on it. Although Su Moyan was unwilling, she couldn't just say it out loud and refuse.

Besides, the ox-cart over there is really crowded, and their reason is quite reasonable. If you don't agree since your cart is still empty and you can't sit on it, it would seem very unreasonable.

It was still Jin Niang who looked at those few people, and spoke to an old woman among them: "Old Lady Liu, come sit on the horse carriage, and then called for a few women who are more obedient in the village.

She pretended not to have seen Liu Cuiping and Lin Shan's family. Jin Niang had admitted that she had always been a narrow-minded person, and had not forgotten the scene from that day. Furthermore, she had also not been stupid when the two of them had placed malicious gazes on her previously, so she naturally knew that the two people did not like her.

It's not like she deserved to be abused. She did not have the hot face to stick to cold fart!

And this Old Lady Liu was the old granny who had protected her at the side when Yang Lihua wanted to beat her up that day.

She was a person who distinct kindness and grudges. Since others treated her well, she would naturally not forget to repay their kindness.

The other few women that she pulled up were also people who didn't chat with the long-tongued woman from the village. They were usually more obedient, and Jin Niang liked people who were like this as well.

When the carriage was full, Jin Niang immediately put down the curtain to block the view outside.

What Liu Cuiping and Lin Shan were thinking was not what she should care about.

Seeing her arrangement, Su Moyan felt that it was a little funny and she also understood a little about them. She did not expect Jin Niang to be so vengeful.

However, he was still very satisfied with this arrangement. He didn't feel comfortable letting those people go, because he didn't know how those people normally spoke ill of them behind their backs.

The people who were dragged out were naturally very grateful to Jin Niang and Su Moyan. To be able to become an ox-cart in the village, one would have to pay a price, but Su Moyan's carriage wouldn't charge them money. Furthermore, it was extremely comfortable to ride on it!

These honest women did not know how to praise, and only expressed their thanks. On the other hand, Old Lady Liu looked at Jin Niang with a face full of gratification, "Jin Niang has grown fat." It looked like life was going well, at least better than living in front of her parents.

Jin Niang smiled and thanked her, "I haven't thanked my grandma for helping Jin Niang that day."

Old Lady Liu waved her hand, "No need to thank me. I have a good relationship with your grandmother, and your grandfather and grandmother are all kind people. Who would have thought that Lin Da Shun would actually be crooked, and Yang Lihua is also a cruel person."
