Chapter 67 Opening

"No sugar, no charge?"

"real or fake?"

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped laughing and talking, captivated by Shen Xiaotang's words.

After all, few people present could read; most were illiterate and couldn't recognize the sign written in soot.

Everyone thought to themselves, even if this stove is specially made, how special can it be?

Roasted sweet potatoes are still just as dry and mushy, aren't they?

Is it really as delicious as she described, "fragrant with caramel aroma, sweet and sticky"?

Is he just bragging to make money?

Someone started saying, "Little girl, lying is a serious offense. If your roasted sweet potatoes aren't sweet, we really won't pay you. Don't cry then!"

Shen Xiaotang smiled innocently and nodded, saying, "Why are you crying? Do you think I don't know if my sweet potatoes are sweet or not? Everyone is watching. You can all try them and decide for yourselves whether they're sweet or not. If my sweet potatoes aren't good, I'll not only refund your money, but my dad and I will never set up a stall here again, okay?"

Everyone looked on with amusement and nodded in agreement.

"Did you all hear that? This little girl herself said, 'Money back guarantee if it's not sweet,' hahaha..."

One or two people in the crowd, who were greedy for small gains, thought to themselves, "Back when we couldn't afford brown rice, everyone ate sweet potatoes. This little girl must be trying to trick us."

Since she's lying, I'll just take the sweet potato from her for free. I'll give her the money now and ask her to return it later. Anyway, there are so many people watching, I'm not worried that she won't return the money.

A person who loves to take advantage of small things asked, "Are your roasted sweet potatoes one cent each?"

"Yes, the small ones are one coin, the big ones are two coins. Uncle, do you want the big ones or the small ones?"

The man rubbed the money in his hand, gritted his teeth, and took out a coin.

"I'll have a small one. I want to taste it first to see if it tastes like you described. If it's really delicious, then I'll consider it a purchase. If it's not delicious, you have to give me my money back. Everyone here is a witness!"

Shen Xiaotang gave a standard smile and nodded, saying, "Don't worry, everyone can see that I put up the sign and said the words. How could I go back on my word?"

After a while of arguing, the sweet potatoes in the stove started to smell delicious.

"Dad, quickly open the oven and see if the sweet potatoes inside are cooked."

Shen Qingchuan opened the furnace box and gently squeezed it with his hand.

"The older ones aren't familiar, but the younger ones are."

"Quick, take out a small one and wrap it in green leaves for him."

Shen Qingchuan reached out and plucked a leaf from the tree, wrapped a roasted sweet potato inside, took it out, and handed it to the person, adding another raw one inside.

Before the oven was turned on, everyone could only smell a faint aroma. But as soon as the oven was turned on and the roasted sweet potatoes were taken out, everyone in the crowd could smell them.

Fragrant!

It seems even the air is sweet!

The man held a hot roasted sweet potato, tore off a piece of skin to reveal the bright orange-red flesh inside, and wisps of white smoke were rising from it, wafting into his nostrils.

He was salivating at the smell!

Everyone was immediately captivated by his appearance and waited for him to taste it.

"How does it taste? You should try it and tell everyone!"

"Yes, try it..."

This roasted sweet potato does indeed look just as the little girl described, with a crispy and fragrant outer skin and a vibrant color inside. The only question is whether the taste is accurate!

Everyone was so enticed by the color and aroma that they couldn't wait to take a bite for the person.

Urged on by everyone, the man immediately said, "What's the panic? It's still very hot!"

So he opened his mouth and took a bite, but it was so hot that he didn't know where to put his tongue, and he immediately breathed on it.

and many more……

The sweet potato he described was sweet and sticky, melting in his mouth, so fragrant and sweet!

Just as that little girl said!

He slurped his food, took another bite, and ate it while exhaling air through his mouth.

Everyone was stunned by his performance.

Is this delicious?

But isn't that a bit too exaggerated? This thing, even the small ones can sell for a penny, is it really that delicious?

After a long while, the man finally let out a satisfied sigh.

"Smells, it smells so good!"

Shen Xiaotang asked with a smile, "Is it just fragrant? Is it sweet?"

"sweet!"

"Can I get my money back?"

The man held the nearly finished roasted sweet potato, stuffing the skin and all into his mouth. He revealed two rows of teeth still covered in bits of sweet potato, and smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

Although he likes to take advantage of small things, he can't just lie through his teeth in front of so many people, can he?

"I'm not asking for a refund. These roasted sweet potatoes are so delicious, how can I let you give me my money back?"

"So you little rascal, how dare you say it's not sweet or you don't have to pay? Turns out it really is sweet, you weren't lying, hehe..."

Shen Xiaotang immediately said, "Everyone has seen what our roasted sweet potatoes look like. This uncle has also personally confirmed that the roasted sweet potatoes are sweet. Is there anyone who doesn't believe it? If you don't believe it, we'll do as we said before: if they're not sweet, you don't have to pay!"

With some people already taking the lead, others are no longer hesitant to follow suit.

Whether they were tempted by the roasted sweet potatoes or didn't believe that roasted sweet potatoes could be so sweet, everyone wanted to try what the father and daughter's roasted sweet potatoes tasted like.

More and more people started spending money to buy it.

Some people paid one coin, while others paid two coins.

In this town, you can't buy anything good with just one or two coins. A bowl of plain noodles costs five coins, a small roasted sweet potato can fill you up, and a large one can fill you up with just two coins.

Shen Qingchuan opened the oven, took out seven or eight roasted sweet potatoes, and immediately stuffed in seven or eight raw ones to continue roasting.

Those who had just been watching were all drooling with envy. Some, reluctant to spend money, had to suppress their urge and leave. The seven or eight people who bought some left while eating as they walked, while the rest of the group were eager to buy some as well.

"Hurry up, why isn't it ready yet? Are you still going to order more?"

Shen Qingchuan was sweating profusely with anxiety, wishing he could heat the stove even more and quickly roast all the sweet potatoes inside.

When Shen Xiaotang saw her simple-minded father adding firewood to the stove, she immediately stopped him.

"Dad, the fire can't be too big, or it'll burn them. Who's going to sell them if they're roasted like charcoal?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingchuan immediately panicked.

"Oh...it's all my fault for being too hasty. I forgot for a moment. I'll take out two lighters right away!"

He immediately took out two sticks, placed them next to the tree roots, and stomped them out.

Shen Xiaotang then spoke up to reassure everyone.

"Everyone, don't rush. Let's line up and come one by one. The oven is baking right now, so everyone will get some and everyone can buy some."

"Roasted sweet potatoes have to be eaten hot, right? If they get cold, they won't taste good. If we roasted them all at home in advance and brought them over, everyone would complain after eating them. We take our time and do our best to make sure everyone is satisfied with their money."

Someone said, "What the little girl said makes sense. They bake everything and bring it over to sell, and it sells out quickly. But they prefer to bake and sell it fresh. They're not afraid of delaying their earnings. It's worth it for us to line up and have some hot food!"

"Yes, I've had enough of the white-core ones. Today I really want their roasted red-core ones. I have to wait and try them."

If it's really delicious, he'll plant it again next year and bring it to town to bake and sell himself.
