Chapter 1024: Song Dafang

The Old Song family was bustling with activity, but in the Yuncheng city center, Song Dafang was stewing in one frustration after another at home.

Today is Laba, and his granddaughter Song Ziyi had an activity at kindergarten, so he had to drop her off early in the morning, but the child refused to eat breakfast at home and insisted on eating the scallion oil flower rolls sold by someone else!

Good heavens, that flower roll seller looked like a widow and her child, but who knew they were profiteers!

Prices went up in winter, selling for five yuan each, and they were limited!

Naturally, Song Dafang went over and didn't manage to buy any at all; he angrily said some nasty things to them, but who knew the young woman selling the flower rolls didn't get angry at all, instead smiling:

"Uncle, if you really want to eat flower rolls, you can make them yourself. My scallions were bought from Old Zhao's boutique vegetables at the market; you can buy three taels for 20 yuan!"

Fine, fine, fine, twenty yuan for three taels! Just wait until I report you!

Song Dafang was exhausted from being tossed around by his granddaughter, and it was only by sheer willpower that he finally managed to find that "Old Zhao's Boutique Vegetables" in a corner of the market.

Who knew that when he got inside, there was only an old woman tidying up, and she was quite polite:

"Buying vegetables? The boss went to attend a pig-slaughtering feast today, I'm just the one watching the door... Are you a member? If you're a member, the bags all have names on them, just take them yourself."

Song Dafang's fists were clenched; the next moment, his body suddenly tilted heavily, and he saw three people rush into the shop: "Grandma Li, the order screenshot is here, you register it first, I'll go get it myself!"

The old woman raised her eyelids and glanced at him, her voice flat and plain:

At this, the old woman stood up: her brows furrowed at this moment:

In that instant, the sheer anger, jealousy, and resentment had already exploded in his brain, causing him to dial the number without any hesitation.

There were scattered baskets of radishes and cabbage nearby, but they didn't even add up to 100 jin!

A heart full of questions hung in his chest, and strings of banknotes danced before his eyes.

He swallowed his anger and turned to leave. However, no sooner had he stepped out the door than he was urged by his son's call: "Dad, did you find out? When are those scallion oil flower rolls being sold tomorrow? Ziyi has been crying all afternoon..."

How is he qualified to earn that money?!

Old Zhao had already said in the group: He wasn't just attending the pig-slaughtering feast today, he also had to discuss the fish business—it's almost New Year, who doesn't want to buy two fish that taste delicious and supreme?

Thinking again of the lousy scallion oil flower rolls Ziyi wanted to eat that cost five yuan each, and the scallions that cost 20 yuan for three taels, all the frustration he had felt early in the morning now had an outlet:

【My brother's family is slaughtering five pigs today, I'm going to go share in the luck too!】

With Song Sancheng's spineless appearance, even if he had a son, he'd be an idiot, what's the use of that?!

Fine, fine, fine! Song Dafang gestured with his fingers, fiercely mocking Song Hongmei and Song Sancheng! But when he turned his head, he saw Song Tan's reply!

Yao Chenliang's expression was becoming ferocious: "Damn it, it's not like I can't afford the money, I want to buy the scallions that cost 20 yuan for three taels!"

"You little brat, didn't your mother just snatch them up! Buy them if you want, don't if you don't!"

"How dare you!"

Song Dafang took a look and saw that inside the small shop, the shelves were densely packed with bags, piled high.

The young man in the shop looked over: "You're so old, why do you speak so disrespectfully? Who are you calling 'father'?"

"I'm telling you, don't think you can bully Grandma Li just because Old Zhao went to the pig-slaughtering feast, there are plenty of people in our group!"

The fire of shame and embarrassment surged from the soles of his feet, burning his face until it was purple and bloated.

Members get a discount of four jiao.

The three people were scurrying back and forth on the shelves, looking just like the marmots in the melon field, making the small shop crowded and bustling.

Song Dafang clenched his fists, his face turning blue and red, his feet feeling like they were filled with lead as he turned back:

The old woman also snorted: "Our shop's wild vegetables and watermelons are 20 a jin, I reckon he can't bear to buy them."

The wild vegetables Song Tan and Qiao Qiao sent in the spring, the watermelons brought over in the summer, and the price Qiao Qiao said was 20 a jin.

"Damn your mother, you old hag, you're just greedy for money! Why don't you go rob someone?!"

Even though Yao Chenliang didn't usually buy vegetables, he knew a little bit about vegetable prices. Can radishes sell for 5 jiao a jin at the market this season? You want 12.8 here?!

"Damn it, you even differentiate when buying vegetables! Can't I buy if I'm not a member?"

Nothing much, mainly because he was getting old and couldn't afford to lose.

Most glaring of all was the small villa his own useless brother had suddenly built.

Song Dafang felt even more resentful.

However, the next moment, with a "beep," the call was hung up before it could be answered.

Song Dafang stared at the fearless old woman before him, his anger suddenly pouring out—

The fire burned so fiercely his heart felt like it was going to explode; Song Dafang had just taken out his phone to question her, but the phone he had been using for a long time froze up, making him even angrier as he tapped randomly, accidentally swiping to the Moments post Song Hongmei had made.

"I want to buy scallions."

Pig-slaughtering feast... pig-slaughtering feast!!

"Mine is here! Oh, I see Little Xue's!"

And the next moment, he turned around abruptly and rushed straight out of the shop.

And the incident where his wife came to the market to buy bamboo shoots and was humiliated for the same price...

As he spoke, he walked toward him.

That mountain, that land, shouldn't have been divided like that in the first place!

The radishes and cabbage were in such high demand that they were sold to members first; once the online orders came in, the uncle and nephew packed them last night.

"Me, me, me! Li Peng, don't forget to take our manager's share, I've saved the screenshot on my phone."

In that moment, it was as if a ray of light pierced his brain. Song Dafang suddenly connected all the details—

And the old woman didn't know anything, today she was only responsible for watching people so they wouldn't take the wrong things.

The scallion oil was fried in advance, the scallions were chopped and frozen in advance... otherwise, how could they keep up with the supply?

Besides, the reason the young mother selling flower rolls raised prices in winter was also because she was using inventory from the summer!

"You're so old, why don't you understand? Eat what's in season! Eat wild vegetables and spring bamboo shoots in spring, watermelons and Chinese cabbage in summer... Where would you find scallions to sell you in the middle of winter? We didn't even buy any."

He stood there, his expression so ferocious it was somewhat terrifying. So much so that the two young men in the shop clenched their fists, becoming vigilant.

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Scallions?

The girl in the shop also spoke up bravely.

"Radishes are 12.8 a jin, radish leaves are 8.7, Chinese cabbage is 11.8 a jin."

The old woman looked up at him: "None, go buy at another shop."

Actually, there were still some in the field, but the scallions grew slowly, plus there was the boss who didn't guarantee anything, so...

Those sky-high priced vegetables, the brothers who were gradually becoming wealthy and building villas, and the fields and mountains in their hometown... why?

As she spat at him: "We didn't beg you to buy! You came to our door and still want to curse people... If you can't bear to spend money, don't eat good things!"

This business is doing so well?!

If they dare to ruin their good business, this group of Yuncheng foodies isn't just blowing smoke! ===== CHAPTER 1025 =====
