Chapter 250: Be More Generous

People started asking about the price, and Gu Zi replied, “20 cents per catty. You can have it for breakfast, eat it while working in the fields when you’re hungry, especially the kids love it. It’s a healthier and more economical snack for children compared to spicy snacks like la tiao.”

Li Zhu’s mother and Zhang Cuihua secretly admired Gu Zits articulate way of speaking. After she mentioned this, they both wanted to buy another catty (half a kilogram).

However, other villagers, not knowing the specific taste, were still hesitant to buy. They thought, “Fermented cakes, why so expensive? We can make them at home ourselves. With this price, we could buy a catty of rice; it doesn’t seem cost-effective.”

“Yeah, it’d be nice if it were cheaper.” The people around also started chiming in. If it were cheaper, they would buy some just to show respect to Su Shen.

Gu Zi smiled and said, “Sure, everyone can make fermented cakes, but not every child necessarily likes them. I’ve developed this recipe myself, and the taste is unique. You won’t be able to replicate it at home. I guarantee that both adults and children will love it.”

She noticed some villagers had skeptical expressions, but she didn’t mind.

Instead, she used a small knife to cut the fermented cakes into small pieces.

Gu Zi handed out small pieces of the cakes, both red and white sugar ones, saying, “Everyone can taste it. Come on, everyone can try it for free. If you think the taste is worth it, you can buy it. If you don’t think it’s worth it, you can save your money to buy rice. It’s no problem at all.”

Li Zhu’s mother followed Gu Zits lead and cut small pieces for the villagers to taste.

Zhang Cuihua heard that Lele had woken up in the cart and immediately went to tend to the child.

Seeing that they could try it for free, the villagers naturally wanted to taste it. They came over to try and expressed their satisfaction. “The taste is quite unique. Give me half a catty.” “I’ll buy some too, half a catty, please.”

“This taste is amazing, how did you make it? I want a catty!”

After trying the cakes, the villagers spontaneously began buying. The taste of these fermented cakes was no worse than what the town’s dessert shops offered. Every time they went to the town, they had to line up specifically to buy snacks for their children, and those cost 25 cents per catty. Now, Gu Zi’s cakes were only 20 cents per catty, and the taste was just as good – they felt like they had struck gold!

Not long after, the two large steamers of fermented cakes brought by Gu Zi had almost sold out one steamer.

Just as she was about to open the second steamer, a well-behaved looking young boy approached the stall, his eyes fixed on a piece of red sugar fermented cake.

Gu Zi handed a small piece of the red sugar fermented cake to him and said, “Here, little one, this is for you.”

As the young boy received the cake, a short-haired woman walked up assertively. She said, “Your family is so wealthy, and now you’re doing business here. Be generous and give a bigger piece. This small piece won’t be enough for my son. Give me a full piece to try; if it’s good, I’ll buy some.”

Gu Zi, looking at the woman approaching, believed that being polite could lead to a profitable business. Therefore, she chose to only listen to the last sentence, hoping that the short-haired woman would refrain from making shameless demands.

She placed the cut piece of fermented cake for tasting outside the stall and said, “Sure, see if you like the taste.”

The short-haired woman assumed that her directness would get her a large, full piece of cake for free.

This way, she could fill her stomach without spending money.

Even though she was straightforward, the villagers were usually reluctant to refuse her requests. Since most of them were polite and gave in to her demands, she felt confident she would get her way again.

However, this time, she was rejected by this woman who had married into the village. Her face changed as she said, “At the very least, you had a wedding a few days ago, and my old lady even served as a witness. Giving us a catty of fermented cakes to eat is only fair, why are you so stingy, just giving a small piece.”

Gu Zi looked at her. She was not tall, quite thin, and although her face was not bad-looking, her eyes had a bit of a sinister glint, giving off the impression that she was always looking for some kind of advantage. This slightly diminished her overall attractiveness.

She clung to her son, a well-behaved child with big eyes and large ears, very pretty. Gu Zi had never seen such a handsome boy in the village before.

It was a pity that the child had a mother like her.

Gu Zi replied, “I’m here for business, not to distribute disaster relief food. The samples for tasting are all small pieces, which is fair to everyone.”

Li Zhu’s mother whispered to Gu Zi from behind, “You might not know her, but she’s Aunt Yang’s daughter-in-law, and she’s always trying to take advantage of others..”
