Chapter 984: Trying to steal business

Chen Mi smiled politely at Old Master Xie before packing up the vegetables that he wanted and saying, " We are selling strawberries and blueberries as well, do you want to buy them Old Master Xie?"          

Thus, it wasn\'t surprising that Old Master Xie did not know about them.      

" Oh, you don\'t know about them?" Chen Mi asked while Old Master Xie nodded in response.      

Thus, Ye Liu immediately turned to take out a few strawberries and blueberries from the basket that was carrying fruits and then handed it to Old Master Xie to taste.      

Of course, after eating Yu Dong\'s homegrown vegetables, Old Master Xie had full trust in their family. He picked one large strawberry and bit it, immediately a sweet red juice flowed inside his mouth followed by the plump flesh causing his eyes to widen in surprise as he asked in delight, " How much is this?"      

" Its five taels a catty, Old Master Xie," Chen Mi answered with a polite smile as he looked at Old Master Xie who started to frown upon hearing the price but after some hesitation, he nodded and said, "Then pack a catty for me … make sure to pick the freshest one."      

Because Yu Dong wanted to provide maximum satisfaction to her customers she took out the basket and then handed Old Master Xie a small wicker basket that was enough to hold a catty of strawberries and then said, " Old Master Xie, you can ask your servant to pick the freshest one among these."      

When Old Master Xie heard that he could pick up the ones that he liked he immediately agreed. Thus he handed the small basket to the servant and asked him to choose the ripest one even though the strawberries of the Yu family were way above the rest of the fruits sold in the market, Yu Dong wanted to push for transparency as long as she was honest and hardworking no one would question her work ethics.     

Old Master Xie picked the strawberries that he wanted and then paid for his purchase.      

After Old Master Xie left, Old Master Shi arrived with his mer servant. He was afraid that if he was even a minute late then he might not be able to get his hands on the Yu family\'s vegetables. After all, ever since Yu Dong and her husbands started to sell these vegetables in the market it did not take long for them to sell everything in just a few hours.      

" Miss Yu!" Old Master Shi greeted Yu Dong with a smile before turning to look at Chen Mi and Ye Liu. Ever since he started to eat Yu Dong\'s homegrown vegetables his body was much stronger than before making him no longer as weak as he was before, now he could move without even the slightest bit of trouble and was living an easy and comfortable life!      

Yu Dong turned to look at Old Master Shi with a smile before greeting him, " Good morning, Old Master Shi. You are early today."      

Old Master Shi smiled and then said, " I was afraid that if I came too late then I would not be able to buy anything. Yesterday you were not here which is why you did not see, the entire crowd snatched away the stock of lettuce and eggplants even spinach was snatched away. I had to make do with tomatoes and pumpkin."      

Though the pumpkin was just as good as the rest of the vegetables, the problem was that he couldn\'t buy enough for his grandchildren. Ever since the New Year, his daughters would send their children to mooch off a meal or two from his courtyard and with the amount of grandchildren that he had, just one head of pumpkin was not going to be enough.      

Last night his grandchildren almost fought to death with each other causing Old Master Shi to suffer from a headache.      

Thus, he came to the Bo and Bun shop first thing in the morning such that he did not miss out on anything.      

Yu Dong smiled at Old Master Shi and then said, " You are in for a treat Old Master Shi, we even started selling fruits just now we did not have the time to stack them up but we just stacked them on the baskets." As she spoke she pointed to the two big baskets which were filled with strawberries and blueberries. Just looking at the plump berries which were simply tantalizing while watching made one\'s appetite rise.      

Old Master Shi\'s eyes were filled with surprise but because Yu Dong followed the same process as before which was to hand a sample to taste, Old Master Shi did not hold back and picked one to hand to his servant while eating the other one himself.      

His servant ate the blueberry while he ate the red strawberry —- of course, their reactions were similar to that of Old Master Xie, they did not even bother to haggle with Yu Dong and brought two catties of each.     

While Old Master Shi was picking strawberries, another voice rang out from outside, " Brother Mi! Why did you not send someone to advertise?"  In the past, the mammies would go around the town announcing the arrival of the Yu family but today there was no sound in the streets, if not for the fact that he got worried and came to look, Qiao Nan was worried that he would have missed the correct timings to buy these vegetables!      

Chen Mi helplessly looked at Qiao Nan and then said, "We did not get the time to do it, it\'s still early. Look I am still stacking up the stock."      

Who asked their customers to be so excited? They couldn\'t wait for them to finish stacking before they came rushing!
