In the lower left corner of the brand is a large apple, and in the upper right corner is a cabbage.
It looks really refreshing and amusing. Even an illiterate person could guess that this is a stall selling fruits and vegetables.
Of course, what drew the most attention was still the glass windows behind the red silk curtain.
Large panes of glass, clean and transparent, allow you to see through them clearly at a glance.
Just the window facing was the fruit stall.
The crimson lychees, along with their leaves, were picked and bundled together as thick as an arm.
The fruit is in the middle, and the leaves are on the outside, like a bunch of flowers.
Golden bananas are neatly stacked together, some as large as a wooden basin, while others are just a few clustered together.
Pink peaches, each as big as a bowl, were arranged in a wicker basket. Even from afar, one could almost smell their sweetness.
There were also white gourds, as big as small ceramic pots, lying quietly together.
The very top one, cut in half, revealing its rich and sweet interior.
Looking further, there were also red apples, yellow pears, and piles of tangerines. Even farther away, there was lush green vegetables...
Everyone was silent for a long moment, but the sound of swallowing could be heard everywhere.
This is winter, indeed!
Snow-white everywhere, even eating a cabbage and radish is difficult, let alone fruits in winter...
Moreover, most of these fruits are unfamiliar to me!
Someone whispered, "What is that purple ball"
Nobody else knew, and eagerly said: "That probably doesn't taste good, I see peaches, they're really big! They must be delicious!"
"Did you bring the peaches from the Queen Mother of the West's Peach Garden"
Jia Yin gave Zhao Hui a knowing look and then stepped aside.
Zhao Hui smiled and explained to everyone.
That dark red little ball is called lychee, a fruit from Quanzhou. Its flesh is snow-white and sweet and refreshing.
“It’s a shame it’s so delicate, it needs to be kept on ice during transport to ensure it doesn’t spoil.”
Our family fleet used large clay jars to dig up the whole tree and plant it in a greenhouse. We barely managed to raise it to this point, bearing over a hundred catties of fruit, more precious than gold...
"There is also that long, golden fruit called a banana. Peel it and eat the soft, sweet flesh inside. It's perfect for elderly people or children without teeth."
This thing is more precious, growing in the extreme south. Twenty trees were transported back, and only two survived the journey. They are always grown in a warm house and need to be kept as hot as summer at all times to survive.
That white gourd grows in the Gobi Desert in the southwest. Because there is little rainfall and the sun shines for a long time during the day, this gourd is especially sweet.
"Well, let me tell you, one bite and your teeth will be sweet! If they don't fall out, I'll pay you two ounces of silver!"
Zhao Hui truly lived up to his years of experience as a manager. He was quick-witted, using exaggerated and humorous language that had the audience constantly laughing out loud, their mouths watering like rivers.
But the vine baskets of fruit had price tags stuck to them.
A white jade gourd costs ten taels of silver, and each person is limited to purchasing one.
Litchi and bananas are both three taels of silver per jin.
Peaches, one or two silver coins each.
This price is really shocking...
At this time, Madam Liu and Mrs. Jia Er arrived together to show their support, of course, Baozhu was running ahead.
This time, she remembered. As soon as she saw Jiayin wearing men's clothing, she immediately slowed her pace and followed her mother, constantly winking at Jiayin.
Jia Yin found it amusing and stepped forward to greet Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Jia Er with a bow, then led them into the shop.
Jia Yin casually picked up a tangerine and stuffed it into Bao Zhu's mouth, then accompanied Madam Liu and Madam Jia Er in strolling through the shop.
Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Jia Er were close to the Li family and knew that Baiyun Guan was opened by Jia Yin.
Even the pickle shop run by Xianke Lai and Tao Hongying has Jia Yin involved.
But seeing it with my own eyes, this little girl, not even that tall, personally took care of everything, from repairing the shop, training staff to opening for business, and smoothly opened the shop.
They still couldn't help but marvel, are children these days really this capable!
Even the mistress of an average household probably wouldn't have this ability, and even many men couldn't do it!
"My lady, your shop is so comfortable and spacious! It's really not easy for sunlight to get in during the winter, but it feels so good to have some warmth inside." Jia Erfu spoke quickly, taking Jia Yin's hand and showering her with praise.
Mrs. Liu also said with a smile: "That's right, I originally thought that Hongying and the old lady both left, and I was still worried that the county princess would be too busy to manage alone."
"The result was truly astonishing, the princess is so amazing!"
Jia Yin smiled, her eyes crinkling at the corners. "Aunt, please don't praise me so much, I'm easily conceited."
"Besides, I'm not good at anything else, but I have a little bit of talent for business, born with the ability to attract money!"
"Ha ha ha, this child is really so articulate!" Mrs. Liu laughed heartily, patting Jia Yin's back and saying, "Quickly get a basket for your aunt. Your aunt didn't bring less silver today, I'll give you some lucky money to open the door!"
Jia Erfu also chimed in: “And me, I’ll take a big basket! My little Baozhu is such a glutton; she wouldn’t have enough if there wasn't.”
The little pearl's mouth was stuffed like a squirrel, she looked right over and, as if protesting, spat out two orange seeds, making everyone laugh.
Soon, Jia Erfu and Liu Fuzi brought their personal maidservants and baskets, strolling through the shop.
The nimble maid in charge of sales, seeing Lady Liu eyeing the white jade gourd, took a sharp small knife and cut half of the white jade gourd into pieces, putting it in a white porcelain bowl and fastening toothpicks.
Mrs. Liu smiled as she tasted a piece and exclaimed, "Oh my, the county princess has really brought out all the best things! I've never eaten this melon before, it's so sweet."
The little maid quickly said, “Madam truly has an eye for quality. This white jade gourd, our family just sent twenty of them over, and they might be gone in a few days.”
"Then we must get one, so that for several days we won't want to eat anything else." Lady Liu nodded, and the little maid immediately picked up the largest white jade gourd and put it in the basket.
On the other side, Jia Erfu was also carrying a basket and picking vegetables.
My grandmother at home has a bit of heat in her body lately, and she doesn't have much appetite. She wants to eat something light, and this is a great opportunity!
The village head was busy all morning, leading people to tidy up the vegetables, which turned out to be excellent.
The roots of the Chinese cabbage have been trimmed off, the upper half has not been watered, and the lower half is washed white and clean. It's carefully bundled into a small bunch.
The scallions had their wilted leaves and mud removed, fresh and tender, bundled neatly one by one.
The spinach is so tender, with juicy stems and plump leaves. When you pick it up and give it a little squeeze, you can hear a satisfying crackle as the stems break!
The young lad held a small spray bottle in his hand, giving the greens a quick "squirrt" every now and then. Ensuring every vegetable was fresh and dewy, just like it had been plucked straight from the earth...
The onlookers outside the window, seeing Madam Liu and the others laughing and tasting fruit while filling their baskets, couldn't help but feel envious.ing a ruckus as the county princess, going to eat watermelon in the watermelon field at Suijin Beach!The emperor recalled his daughter's antics and couldn't help but chuckle, "This girl is about to ge...
