Chapter 250: Be More Generous
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
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!
