Chapter 26 Exchange for tofu
It was given to me for free, and the aunt naturally did not refuse it. She just weighed it and looked at it, "The color looks fresh, but I don't know how it tastes..."
Then he took a bite.
"Huh?" Without even chewing the dried sweet potato in her mouth, the aunt's eyes suddenly lit up and she said vaguely, "Don't tell me, this dried sweet potato is really soft and sweet, and it's completely effortless to eat."
Eating all the dried sweet potatoes in her hands in two or three times, the aunt even smacked her lips and said, "It's not bad."
“Hey, why is your dried sweet potato so soft and glutinous and tastes better than other people’s dried sweet potatoes?”
It was dried enough in the sun, but it tasted soft and glutinous, and the sweetness of the sweet potato was just right. After eating it, I felt endless aftertaste and wanted to eat more. The aunt stared at the dried sweet potato in the bamboo basket in front of Sumulan, and almost did not hesitate. "Here, weigh me two cents. My boss's teeth are not good, but he is always greedy and can't eat anything else. This sweet potato is so dry that it can grind his teeth."
"Okay." Su Mulan quickly took the old weighing scale to weigh the dried sweet potatoes, and said, "This dried sweet potato is my family's secret recipe. Others can't make the taste like ours. If Auntie I think it’s delicious. I’ll buy it at the market next time.”
“Auntie gave me one today, I’ll give her some more.”
The sappan blue was weighed high. After the weighing was completed, a few more pieces were added and put into a bamboo basket for the aunt.
“I’ll do business soon.” The aunt smiled and gave the two cents to Su Mulan.
“Auntie, walk slowly.” Su Mulan stuffed the copper coins into her waist and continued to sell.
“Soft, glutinous and sweet dried sweet potatoes…”
The melodious voice kept ringing throughout the market.
Someone opened it, and some people followed suit and bought it. However, most of the people who came to buy it were because they were curious about whether the dried sweet potatoes were soft, glutinous, and sweet. After tasting it, about half of the people bought some.
Maybe two cents are worth half a catty, or one penny is worth three taels. There are also some who are more generous and ask for two catties.
Selling one after another, when the sun rises, the weather gets hotter, and the number of people in the market gradually dwindles, the bamboo baskets of hematoxylin and white water willow have basically bottomed out, and there is not much left. .
Su Mulan thought for a while, gathered the remaining dried sweet potatoes, and said to the tofu stall owner next to him, "Uncle, I still have six or seven taels of dried sweet potatoes, can I exchange them for your three kilograms of tofu?"
Sixty-seven taels of dried sweet potatoes cost about two cents, which is exactly the same as three kilograms of tofu.
Two cents, which is more than a stick of sesame candy. If you buy crispy twists, you can't buy much, but you can buy half a catty of dried sweet potatoes. Moreover, he also tasted the dried sweet potatoes just now, and the taste is indeed good.
What's more, this is exchanged for tofu. If the tofu cannot be sold, it can't be sold the next day on such a hot day. It can only be eaten by myself. The first person in the family to open a tofu workshop will get tired of eating tofu all day long. Okay, I'll try some dried sweet potatoes instead. It's a good deal anyway.
The uncle of the tofu stall, after weighing it for a while, nodded, "Okay, let's bring some snacks back to the children at home."
“Thank you, uncle.” Su Mulan cleaned up the remaining dried sweet potatoes and gave them all to the tofu seller.
The uncle also cut a large piece of tofu for her very neatly and weighed it, "Three catties and two taels. Come on, I won't go any further. Your scale is also high, so I can't let you suffer."
