Chapter 2460: Sugar Painting
Shen Long was wearing a pair of rubber-soled liberation shoes, carrying a load of goods, with one deep foot and one shallow foot, and walked vigilantly on the country road. The shoes were too big for the feet. The thimble and two sugars were exchanged.
After entering the village, he did not rush to yell, but observed it first. It is not allowed to do business in this year. If their behavior grows bigger, it is speculative. If they encounter a village with rigid leaders, they will be arrested. Yes, but they are all doing small businesses, and what they send are the necessities of rural life, so under normal circumstances, most of those people just turn a blind eye and forget about it.
After confirming that the village was relatively safe, Shen Long began to shake the rattle. Knocking Tang helped his ancestors do this for generations. They also played a lot of tricks on the rattle. Shen Long shook the rattle with exaggerated movements and expressions, which immediately attracted him. Many children paid attention, they followed Shen Long up and down, looking curiously at the rattle in his hand.
Walking all the way to the grain drying field in the village, many children gathered behind them, and some adults rushed over after hearing the sound, and exchanged things like chicken feathers and toothpaste skins for needles and threads, and the children looked at the quilt. Ginger candies and sweet-scented osmanthus candies covered in plastic paper kept swallowing the saliva in his mouth.
After finishing his business, Shen Long saw that these children still refused to leave, so he used a shovel to knock out fingernail-sized pieces of sweet-scented osmanthus sugar from a whole disc-sized piece of sweet-scented osmanthus sugar, and distributed them among In the hands of the children, give them candy to eat, and just ask them to shout "chicken feathers for candy" for themselves.
"The little sugar-changer is generous!" The children happily ran around the village with their candies in their mouths, spreading the news of the sugar-changer's arrival to every household. This was much less labor-intensive than Shen Long running around the village by himself As a result, more people came here with chicken feathers and duck feathers, or with change, and exchanged the necessary bits and pieces from him.
Of course, it is also inevitable that some children who have tasted the taste of ginger candy insist on pestering their parents to exchange for candy. Seeing the happy expressions of the children, there was a rare smile on their tired and numb faces.
Some parents don't want to pamper their children, so some greedy children steal things from home and find Shen Long to exchange for sugar. They take out the fine copper flagon and just want to exchange for a small lump of sugar. This kind of business Naturally, it can't be done. Hurry up and send the jug back to others, give the child a piece of candy for free, and stop the parents from breaking the child. Parents who are upset will change something at Shen Long's place.
Chen Jinshui watched all this from a distance, and when Shen Long was reluctantly held back by the children and walked out of the village, he came out and patted Shen Long on the shoulder with satisfaction, "Okay, okay, you count us as the Chen family." I have learned the skills of my ancestors from generation to generation! The rules are also strictly followed. In my opinion, if I stay with you for a few more days, you will be able to carry your own load to do business!"
It is gratifying to think of using children to solicit business, but what makes Chen Jinshui even more happy is that he is not greedy for petty gains. A copper flagon may make a lot of money, but if he takes it, the next time Yiwu Datanggang will not He wants to enter this village, which shows that the child is well-behaved and has long-term plans. Coupled with the cleverness in persuading the parents just now, Chen Jinshui is also relieved to let him do it alone.
So, after following Shen Long for a few more days, Chen Jinshui separated from Shen Long, "Just go forward along this road, and then go back after two months, and arrive before the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month." Zhuji, and then let’s buy new year’s goods and go home to celebrate the new year together!”
"Okay, I'll definitely be back on time!" Shen Long replied loudly, and then walked forward unhurriedly with the salesman on his shoulders.
Chen Jinshui watched him from behind for a long time, until Shen Long's back disappeared into the mountain bay, then he turned and went to another road, but Chen Jinshui turned back after walking not far, and chased after him with big strides. After secretly following Shen Long for a day, he left.
Shen Long walked forward for another three days, and when he passed a town, he heard from the host who stayed here that there would be a market the day after tomorrow, and people from four miles and eight villages would come to the town to go to the market, so he came up with an idea, just relying on candy in exchange for It is still too hard to make money with chicken feathers, and the added value is not high, so I have to find a way to play a new trick.
He found the blacksmith shop in the town, negotiated the price for a long time, gave some sugar to the blacksmith's son, gave his wife and daughter some hairpins, and added some money to make him make a gadget for himself.
Shen Long spoke nicely, and the things he had in hand were indeed beautiful, so the blacksmith happily agreed, and worked hard for a long time, finishing the things according to Shen Long's requirements.
Shen Long stayed in the town for a day. On the day of going to the market, he didn't directly carry the salesman out, but went out empty-handed to look around. The leaders of this town seem to be more enlightened, and they don't care too much about the farmers using their own things. Regarding the transaction situation, this is not a correct work attitude nowadays, but it is a good thing for Shen Long.
He took out the straw handles that he had prepared a long time ago, and went out with the load. He found a place to put the things down and started to set up a stall. Take it out, wait for the stove to heat up, take out a piece of maltose from the cargo bag, put it in a spoon, and heat it up. After a while, the aroma of the sugar spreads around, and many people subconsciously sniff their noses and drool.
"Knock the candy, how do you change this candy?" Someone came over immediately and asked.
"Wait for a while, I'm still not well!" Shen Long replied with a smile, but his hands didn't rest at all. The sugar thread flowed out and dripped onto the marble slab he had prepared. With a slight movement of the hand holding the spoon, a plump carp appeared on the marble slab.
Then I modified it a little, glued the carp to the bamboo sticks, scooped it up with a shovel and inserted it on the straw handle, "Hey, I have enough money every year, eat our big carp, and keep the crops in the field for a good harvest next year!"
"Good workmanship! This carp is really made!" The crowd applauded, the life nowadays is too boring, and a little bit of new stuff can attract countless people to watch. After a while, Shen Long's side There are a lot of people around, and there are more and more sugar paintings on the straw handles, there are birthday peaches, big roosters, and monkeys...
Feeling that there were already enough people, Shen Long stopped and began to solicit, "You can replace chicken feathers, duck feathers, and goose feathers!"
"Dad, I want this big carp!"
"I want a monkey, a monkey!" the children yelled.
