Some people around had naturally eaten Shaobai before, so when they heard that Shaobai was being sold by the woman in front of them, they couldn't help but marvel at it.

A bearded man spoke in a muffled voice, "I tell you not to sell mooncakes anymore. Go back to selling shaobai. Yesterday I asked my wife to go to the street to see if you had a stall. I didn't expect you to be selling mooncakes today! Thirty cents for each of these. How can you eat ten slices of meat comfortably!"

"That's right, I just heard someone talking about it by chance. They said it goes really well with rice." The young man agreed hastily.

The bearded man seemed to have found a soulmate and patted the young man on the shoulder, "Then you should really try it in the future, otherwise you will regret it."

After hearing what the bearded man said, the young man thought more about it.

Gu Qingqing had met a true returning customer. She hurriedly explained with a smile, "It's the Moon Festival soon, so I thought of making some mooncakes. Thank you for your consideration. We will come the day after tomorrow to sell shaobai and mooncakes together. If not here, we will go to the old place in the inner street."

"Give me four mooncakes first! I'll give you some extra salted vegetables when I buy your Shaobai later." said the bearded man, handing over a silver bean.

Wen Wuyan was not around today. After Gu Qingqing took the silver beans, she looked at the bearded man hesitantly.

She was a little unsure how many copper coins the silver bean was worth.

The bearded man saw her doubt and thought she didn't believe him saying it was worth 150 coins, so he said, "If you don't believe me, you can weigh it on a silver scale. It's definitely worth 150 coins."

Gu Qingqing immediately put the silver beans away and explained with a smile, "I'm not afraid of being laughed at by big brother. It's mainly because it's the first time I've seen a silver nugget of this size. I'm afraid I can't estimate the price and let big brother suffer a loss."

Gu Qingqing said as she wrapped four mooncakes for the other party, then took out thirty cents from the basket and gave them as change.

"When my elder brother or sister-in-law comes, I will definitely give you an extra portion of salted vegetables." Gu Qingqing said to the other party.

"And me, and me. I'll buy a mooncake today, and you can give me some more salted vegetables!" The young man took the opportunity to bargain.

Gu Qingqing agreed with a smile.

The young man immediately took out a string of money from his lapel, took out a few from it, and handed the rest to Gu Qingqing, "Here are exactly thirty, count them."

Gu Qingqing only took a quick look at it and put it into the bamboo basket. When she wanted to wrap it with bamboo leaves, the young man refused, "No, no, I want to eat it now."

Soon, only two mooncakes were left on Gu Qingqing's shelf.

At this moment, a young man dressed as a waiter suddenly rushed to Gu Qingqing's stall, pointed at the only two mooncakes left on her stall and said, "I want these two."

"Okay, I'll wrap it for you." Gu Qingqing said as she wrapped the mooncake skillfully.

She was just about to call Dahua and prepare to pack up to go home when she saw the waiter suddenly rummaging through her body.

Gu Qingqing withdrew her hand that was holding the mooncake and watched the boy's performance quietly, as if she was watching a play.

After a long time, the young man seemed unable to pretend any longer, and he slapped his thigh with a look of sudden realization.

"Oh, I ran out too fast just now and forgot to bring money. You've finished selling, so why don't you come back with me to get the money?" said the young man, pointing randomly behind him.

The goal is not clear at all.

Gu Qingqing quietly looked at the huge words sewn on his shirt on his chest and was not fooled at all.

She said calmly, "Brother, we are not in a hurry to go back. I will wait for you here. I will keep these two mooncakes for you. You are young and fast, so please make the trip."

The young man thought she didn't believe him, so he patted his chest and said, "I really bought it, I'm not trying to trick you."

Gu Qingqing nodded, "I know you really want to buy mooncakes, I promise to wait for you here."

The young man didn't expect that this person would be so difficult to bring over. His usual cleverness was blocked, and he finally chose to play the victim, "I'm on duty today. I'm going in and out like this, and the shopkeeper is watching me. I'm bound to get a bad meal. Sister-in-law, please be kind and come with me. I promise to give you the money after I get it."

Gu Qingqing crossed her arms and asked, "Brother, are you sure it's appropriate for you to come out and buy my mooncakes while you're on duty?"

"It's perfect, absolutely perfect! It's only a few steps away, and we can get there in no time."

"You don't think I can't read, do you?" Gu Qingqing suddenly said.

The young man was startled, and then he saw Gu Qingqing's eyes falling on his chest. He looked down and saw the words "Jinji" on the clothes.

The young man subconsciously covered his chest and then looked bitter.

Gu Qingqing's thoughts were also racing. From the fact that he bought two mooncakes while wearing his work clothes, to the fact that he was looking for copper coins all over his body, Gu Qingqing should have guessed that the other party was not just here to buy mooncakes.

But Jinji is a wealthy family, they shouldn't be interested in her things!

Would it be possible that if she sold dozens of mooncakes today, would it have any impact on Jin Kee?

Ghosts don't believe it!

Gu Qingqing couldn't figure it out. Seeing people coming and going in the town, especially the long queue at the door of Jinji, she said to the waiter, "Lead the way!"

Then she packed her things, took Dahua with her and walked towards Jinji.

After entering the store, the waiter hurriedly went to the counter, took out the sixty cents he had left there, and handed it to Gu Qingqing.

"This way, please!" The waiter pointed to the stairs behind the counter and took the mother and daughter to the second floor.

The waiter stopped at the door of a private room. After realizing Gu Qingqing, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

After receiving a response from inside, the waiter pushed the door open and said, "Boss, the guests are here, and the mooncakes have been bought."

After the boy said this, he put down the mooncake and turned away.

Gu Qingqing looked around the room. The house was big enough and elegantly decorated.

Half of the room was a study, and right now a man was reading at his desk.

There was a round table on the side near the entrance, and a slightly plump man wearing a dark-patterned gown was sitting at the table.

There are a variety of snacks unique to Jin Kee on the table.

"Please sit down!" The slightly plump man greeted Gu Qingqing with a serious look.

Dahua nervously held Gu Qingqing's hand.

Gu Qingqing pulled Dahua to sit directly opposite the man, and then asked, "I wonder why the waiter asked us mother and daughter to come up?"

The slightly plump man didn't rush to answer. Instead, he told them to eat the snacks on the table before he spoke, "You know how to choose a place. You chose to set up a stall opposite Jinji. Is it because of your real ability? Or do you want to use Jinji's reputation to sell your mooncakes?"

Gu Qingqing looked at the half mooncake she made on the table and chuckled, "I thought you already had the answer. If you feel that a mooncake cannot give you the answer, I can only say that the choice is in the hands of the customer. The customer's preferences are not something we can control, but being accepted and liked by the customer is a skill."
