The neighboring County of Shifeng County was Pushan County. The distance from Jian Family Village to Pushan County was about the same as going to Shifeng County, so Jian Rong pushed a small cart and walked there early in the morning.
When Jian Qingqing returned from the county, Jian Rong had already returned to the village.
Seeing her, Jian Rong ran over excitedly. “Sister Qingqing! This stewed meat is very popular in Pushan County!”
Jian Qingqing was happy for him. “Is that so? Tell me about the situation there.”
Jian Rong excitedly told her about his situation in Pushan County. “When I went there, I found a crowded market. When I lifted the lid, all those people gathered around. However, they only asked about the price and refused to buy it because they thought it was too expensive. Some people wanted to try it, but I refused. How expensive is this meat? I won’t let them eat it for free!”
“Sister Qingqing, do you know what I did in the end?” Jian Rong asked.
Jian Qingqing also asked curiously, “How did you do it?”
Jian Rong said exaggeratedly, “Didn’t I take three buns for lunch? They didn’t buy it, and I was hungry again, so I took out the bun and dipped it in the gravy. Sister Qingqing, your gravy is so delicious. I only dipped it in the gravy and had two buns in a row. Then I was so engrossed in it that when I looked up, all the people were staring at my bun. Some of them even drooled!”
“Then, when I came up with the idea, I picked up a piece of braised meat and ate it happily. They couldn’t stand it anymore. They all paid me for the braised meat. None of them bargained with me!”
Jian Qingqing gave him a look of praise. She did not expect this kid to know how to broadcast his eating process! In her previous life, she often watched the live stream broadcast late at night and ordered a lot of things passionately. Watching other people eat really made created an appetite.
“Then you can take 50 catties to try it tomorrow. There should be more people buying it tomorrow.”
Xiao Hu and Xiao Ye were in school at the Detian Academy. Jian Qingqing had to send them lunch every afternoon.
In summer, the weather was as hot as a stove. The moment one moved, one would be covered in sweat. It was so sticky that it was hard to bear.
Jian Qingqing stood under a big tree outside the academy, waiting for her brothers. The cicadas on the branches chirped non-stop.
She picked up a cicada molt and played with it in her hand. She vaguely remembered that this cicada molt seemed to be a medicinal herb. There were many children in the village, and no one watched them play frequently. If she found a task for them to do, she could earn some pocket money.
Yes, she could ask Wei Wusheng if he would accept this.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, no one came out. The other students had already finished their lunch and returned to the academy. What was going on?
Jian Qingqing glanced around and saw an acquaintance from a food stall. Her eyes lit up and she walked over.
“Student Sun, have you seen Xiao Hu and Xiao Ye?” Jian Qingqing asked with a smile.
This student was Xiao Hu’s classmate and was also a very good friend. He often ate with them, and Jian Qingqing had also sent him food a few times.
When Sun Shaoning saw Jian Qingqing, his eyes lit up. “Sister Qingqing, what delicious food did you make today? Xiao Hu? He came out long ago to wait for you. He came out earlier than me. Why? Didn’t you see them?”
Jian Qingqing frowned. “I’ve been waiting for them under that big tree for almost 15 minutes, but no one came out.”
Sun Shaoning put down his food and said, “Sister Qingqing, don’t worry. They might not have come out. I’ll go in and look for them.”
Jian Qingqing nodded. “Okay, sorry to trouble you.”
