with Li Jingshou's vegetable stall. It is Mr. Dou's stall, at about 5 a. m., Mr. Dou is unloading. Mr Dou's food is from the seven Liebao wholesale market. He mainly dishes a dozen restaurants and chooses seven Liebao because it feels the food is complete. Li Jingshou, who has done vegetable business for more than 10 years in
, has a unique view. "Seven Li Bao dishes are generally slightly more expensive, and some are even two dealers from Kuang Shan wholesale market." Li Jingshou said, compared to the market, the wholesale market is the cheapest. Li Jingshou has a small stock, "if it has just rained, go to the eight Li bridge wholesale market, because there may be two traffickers over there the day before, it will be cheaper."

a reporter found that some customers buy dishes when they buy food - with a pre listed list to buy dishes, and these customers tend to be more picky and only buy the best dishes.
