Chapter 727: Rented A Stall

Soon it came to November. Snow had started falling in many northern parts and temperature had dropped sharply. However, Liyang City, located in the south, came to the most comfortable season of the year. It was now in a cool weather with temperatures ranging from 22 degrees to 25 degrees, very comfortable.

The four seasons here were all like spring, warm in winter and cool in summer. Many old people, especially the sick ones, liked to come to this city for vacation best.

This city was a famous tourist city nationwide, with the annual amount of visitors up to over 8 million.

Early in the morning, He Xiyan came out of a residential building. She was wearing a small green cardigan, blue tight jeans and a bag, in which there was a cell phone and some change.

After walking past two streets, she came to the market about several thousand square meters, which was also the largest market in the north part of Liyang City.

It was now 6:30 in the morning, still at dawn. Many people haven’t gotten up yet, but many shops in the market were open, so were many stalls.

He Xiyan came to a small stall which was only a few square meters in the right corner. She rented it last month at 1,200 yuan a month, which was cheap actually.

In order not to be driven out by the city management officers, she rented this stall. Since they had this stall, their income had increased a lot.

What she sold were those agricultural products purchased from the village, about 20 kinds in total, including bacon, salted fish, native eggs, duck eggs, sweet potato powder, chopped pepper, radish sticks, fermented bean curd, garlic, chili powder and so on. They were of authentic local flavor, thus were relatively expensive.

With good quality and her own efforts, her products sold very fast. She sold things at the stall between 6:30 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. During these few hours, her turnover was close to 1,000 yuan. Apart from the cost, she could earn 400 to 500 yuan a day and tens of thousands yuan a month.

Like usual, He Xiyan cleaned up the stall and arranged the products in cla.s.sifications. After 6:30 a.m., more and more people came to the market, most of who were citizens coming to shop for food, mostly women.

These housewives usually came here to buy their food for the whole day with their small shopping carts.

“Sister, weigh this bacon for me.” Soon, a customer came and picked up a piece of bacon about one kilogram.

He Xiyan weighed the meat, which, a little more than one kilogram, cost 72 yuan.

“Sister, just 70. You see, I don’t have any change for the extra two yuan.” The customer was a grandfather in his sixties who had retired already.

He Xiyan said yes with a smile. Then she packed the bacon for the grandpa, together with two garlic b.a.l.l.s.

“Grandpa, the garlic b.a.l.l.s are for free.”

She smiled and handed the bag to the old man in front of her.

The old man was overjoyed with the small things given to him, saying thanks quickly.

He Xiyan also smiled. Today, she sold for 70 yuan with the first order. Having collected the bacon for a dozen yuan a kilo, she could earn almost half the price.

As for the garlic b.a.l.l.s, this was just one of her marketing strategies. Most of the customers shopping for food were women and the old. They liked bargaining and preferred small free things. Catering to their preference, she then gave things for free from time to time. For example, she would give two eggs or garlic b.a.l.l.s for free when someone bought bottled food. These things were all purchased by her at a low price.
