135 Sold Out

“Selling candied haws, selling candied haws. Sweet and delicious candied haws!”

“Don’t miss it. Men will be stronger if they eat it. Women will have sweet smiles if they eat it. Children will grow taller if they eat it. Old people will live longer if they eat it!”

“Uncle, will you buy a candied haw for the kids at home?”

On Nanhe Third Street, a few voices kept rising and falling. This was Little Ah Yu bringing her brothers to hawk.

Of course, Little Ah Yu would not remember these words. This was all summarized by Meatball.

At first, the boys from the Wang Family could not bring themselves to shout these words. They felt a little ashamed.

However, when they saw their youngest sister shouting especially hard, her face red as if she was about to fly into the sky, they naturally could not remain embarrassed and stand there dryly.

Initially, after the Cai Niu bought five fruits, it gave them a lot of confidence. However, later on, no one came to buy anything, especially when everyone saw that they were wild fruits. They left without asking.

After they took the candied haws out, the crowd learned that it was not hawthorns inside, but something they had made from this wild fruit. It was even more expensive.

Other people’s candied haws only cost one copper coin a stick, but their candied haws cost three copper coins a stick.

In terms of price, it was much higher than others.

How could they sell it?

The children were a little discouraged, but Little Ah Yu still shouted under the encouragement of Meatball. At first, they were ignored. The others only looked at them curiously, but after seeing what they were selling, they were unwilling to buy it.

At this moment, in the only Nanhe Restaurant in Nanhe Town, a person dressed as a young master slowly walked out of the restaurant. He was about 15 or 16 years old and had a jade pendant on his waist. He held a fan in his hand and opened it from time to time to fan himself.

He looked a little different from the people around him.

“Is there anything fun around here?” the Young Master asked the servant beside him.

The servant thought about it carefully and said, “Nanhe Town is relatively small. There are only three streets in the entire town. We’re now on the main street. The other two streets are selling unattractive things. Young Master, you don’t have to go and take a look.”

However, this person was clearly a little rebellious. When he heard that it was something that was not eye-catching, he was interested. What could be not eye-catching?

“Where are the other two streets? Show me.”

The servant could only lead the way.

They went to Nanhe Second Street first. Young Master walked back and forth and felt that it was indeed very boring.

The servant said, “There’s really nothing fun here. Why don’t we go back early?”

On the street just now, there were still some people selling chickens, ducks, and other livestock. The smell was really a little strong. Even the servants could not stand it anymore. The Young Master even covered his nose with the fan the entire time.

“Why should we go back? Isn’t there another street? Let’s go and take a look.” Young Master was unwilling to go back.

The servant had no choice but to follow him to Nanhe Third Street.

He thought to himself that the Young Master was indeed an awkward person. He insisted on going to a place he said he couldn’t go.

The next time theYoung Master wanted to go somewhere, he would persuade him to go. The Young Master might just return home.

When they arrived at Nanhe Third Street, the Young Master took a look. Most of the things here were food, but they were usually vegetables.

At this moment, they suddenly heard a commotion.

“Where is the commotion?” Young Master’s eyes lit up. He put away the fan and walked forward. “Let’s go and take a look.”

There was indeed some commotion. Coincidentally, the shouts of Little Ah Yu and the others attracted some dissatisfaction.

One of them was a candied hawthorn seller.

He looked at the children with an unfriendly expression. “Aren’t you ruining the reputation of the candied haws? What are you making? Is it even edible? It’s even sold at such an expensive price. You might as well rob people for money!”

Wang Dalang pulled his younger siblings behind him. Although he was also a little afraid, he still mustered his courage and said to the person, “We’ll sell our candied haws and you’ll sell yours. We won’t disturb each other. What right do you have to criticize us?”

The candied haws seller sneered. “On what basis? With just your ability to ruin the reputation of the candied haws, I’ve been selling candied haws here for more than 20 years. Everyone knows what the taste of candied haws is and what it’s made of. In the end, you’re also selling candied haws here, but you’re selling lousy wild fruits that can be seen everywhere on the mountain. In the future, if others see my candied haws, won’t they think that mine is also made of that kind of thing? My hawthorns are top-notch hawthorns. I worked hard to grow them!”

The candied haws seller did think this way. He had never thought that the children would be able to sell their goods. He had been selling here for so many years that the customers had long been fixed and identified the taste. Even if some people occasionally wanted to snatch his customers, they could not.

But what had these children done? They had used a bunch of lousy wild fruits as the fruit in the candied hawthorn. What would other shoppers think if they found out?

Wasn’t this smashing his reputation?

Little Ah Yu muttered from behind, “We sell much better food than yours!”

She especially disliked that sour candied hawthorn. Now that she thought about it, she wanted to frown!

Some people were born not to like sour things. Little Ah Yu was one of them. She felt that sour things should be taken back by the heavens!

“Little girl, what do you know? If your stuff tastes good, I’ll crawl backwards out of here today!”

At this moment, a young voice suddenly came from the side. “If their food is really better than yours, will you really crawl away?”

The person selling candied haws said something and subconsciously replied, “I, Tang Third, am a man of my word!”

Young Master patted the fan in his hand and turned to the servant. “Come, buy all the candied haws from their two families and let the surrounding people taste them. Let everyone evaluate which one is better.”

Of course, he was here to watch the show. As for which stall was better, he did not care. However, he hoped that the candied haws from that little girl’s stall were better. That way, he could see someone crawling backwards.

The candied haws seller was a little angry. “Why are you so nosy?”

The young master smiled leisurely and said, “I’m just upholding justice. Moreover, I’m not taking advantage of any of you. How about this? Let everyone judge which stall’s candied haws are better today. If that little girl’s candied haws are better, you can crawl away. If your stall’s candied haws are better, I’ll give you ten taels of silver. What do you think?”

The candied haws seller retracted his fierce expression when he heard this, leaving only a fawning expression.

“Aiyo, which family’s benefactor is this? He has such good taste. Let’s compete. I’ve been making candied haws for more than 20 years. No one knows more about candied haws than me!”

Tang Third was very confident that his candied haws would definitely not be inferior!

On the other hand, the children of the Wang family were dumbfounded. Their candied haws had been sold out not long after they were placed out.
