Chapter 21 TV dramas are all lies

"Let's go. I'll go drink with you next time."

Seeing that the problem was solved, Zhou Xiaoke, feeling a little embarrassed, left first.

My little brother bumped into a primary school classmate, I can't afford to lose face in front of him.

As the Feilong Society members left, the Red Dragon brothers who were sitting there for the sake of dignity also left one by one.

At the same time, Zhou Anan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

According to the plot of some crappy TV series, he, as the protagonist, should encounter a crisis, his stall is smashed, and he has no choice but to ask for help from his elementary school classmates. After that, he will regain the place with the help of his elementary school classmates, and then expand the barbecue stall. He, in turn, helps his elementary school classmates to dominate the area. In the end, because the blind younger brother is too arrogant and angers the big man, he is forcibly knocked out by the state administrative agency.

Cough cough cough, that’s a bit too far-fetched. Zhou Anan doesn’t want to go through the twists and turns of the plot. It’s better to have a simple and ordinary life.

From the current perspective, the best outcome is that there is no fighting.

After that, he was no longer troubled by protection fees, and his daily income increased by at least a hundred yuan, but Zhou Anan didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

If it weren't for the harassment from the gangsters, Zhou Anan might not have wanted to get to know Zhou Xiaoke again. The decadent young man who she occasionally met with in her previous life was too uncomfortable to look at.

Sometimes, favors are more troublesome than money.

"Anzi, I didn't expect you knew that boss. Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Without the trouble of his friends, Wang Rong excitedly punched the thugs on the shoulder when he saw them retreat.

The posture of those people just now was so intimidating that it made him want to take action.

Moreover, he is so powerful that he commands dozens of younger brothers. It is really enviable and frightening.

But one thing is foreseeable, this barbecue stall will be absolutely safe in the future, and Xu Wenwen can stay longer without having to go back before ten o'clock every day.

"Go, go, go, pack up quickly and go to bed early today."

Zhou Anan shook off the worries about the future in her mind and sent the other party to clean up the tables and chairs.

Although it was only eleven o'clock, the usual flow of customers had already dispersed due to the confrontation between the two gangs.

The operating profit for that day hit a new low of only 368 yuan, and a few customers took advantage of the situation and took away some barbecues without paying.

However, with the 700 yuan protection fee returned by the two gangs, the average daily income exceeded 1,000 yuan for the first time, reaching 1,068 yuan.

At this point, Zhou Anan could only sigh helplessly as he looked at the thousands of dollars.

How should I repay this favor?

"Wang Rong, hurry up."

"Table nine is ready, Wenwen, go clean it up."

"Wang Rong, table six is ready."

"Boss, this is your barbecue. It's twenty-five dollars."

Under Zhou Anan's instructions while grilling, Wang Rong and Xu Wenwen were like spinning tops, shuttling back and forth between the tables, busy as a whirlwind.

Fortunately, Zhou Anan's mental arithmetic ability has improved over the years due to her career in mathematics teaching. She can now accurately calculate the cost of packaging, saving Xu Wenwen a lot of effort in calculating the bills.

On July 25th, without the harassment from the two gangs, the profit of the barbecue stall reached a new high of 802.5 yuan, and it was not far from breaking one thousand.

This is completely incomparable to the one thousand yuan yesterday. This is a real profit of 800 yuan.

If we continue at this pace, monthly profits exceeding 20,000 will not be a problem at all.

As long as we can earn 30,000 or 40,000 yuan, we will have the starting capital for the training department.

"Everyone go back and rest early, we have a class reunion tomorrow."

Tonight was also the first time that Xu Wenwen insisted on waiting until the barbecue stall closed. Seeing that it was almost dawn, Zhou Anan asked Wang Rong to send her back first.

He had heard Wang Rong say before that the admission letters for the first batch of universities had all been delivered, and at the call of some classmates with good grades or good family backgrounds, Class 3-4 of Senior High School would hold a reunion to celebrate.

Zhou Anan knew clearly that because he was selected as the third choice, the admission notice would arrive a few days later. Because he obeyed the allocation, he was directly transferred to the newly opened science education major, which was close to the first-tier score line. Most of his classmates were in the same situation as him.

Well, that's a bit far-fetched.

Speaking of class reunions, when we get together ten years later, everyone has already taken root in a certain field.

Of course, most people just take root and quietly contribute to other people's companies, and only a few really sprout. For self-employed people like Zhou Anan, who earn over 500,000 yuan a year, it can be ranked high. It has to be said that this is the happiness of a small county.

During this period of high school graduation, the class reunions held did not have so many impurities.

We all look forward to the wonderful university life, and the worst thing is to listen to some classmates who have successfully passed the college entrance examination bragging about how a certain university is a bit far away, and so on.

There is not so much utilitarianism, not so much calculation, and not so much hypocrisy.

Class reunions of this era are still worth attending.

At least, Zhou Anan doesn't want to miss this time.

In the subsequent class reunions, not only were there very few people who came, but they were just having a meal, chatting, and bragging, which was really boring.

"Oh."

Looking at the two people's receding backs, Zhou Anan shook her head.

This guy Wang Rong, when asked to deliver the baby, actually stayed more than one meter away. His EQ is so low that it is outrageous.

However, he can only help up to this point. As for the rest, it depends on the fate of the two.

Anyway, knowing a little about the future, he is not optimistic about the young and innocent Rongrong.

"Lao Liang, it's not that I don't want to help you, but who knows that kid knows Lao Xiao from the Feilong Society."

Huangmao took a pack of Red Double Happiness cigarettes handed to him by the other party, and took the half-opened cigarette from his hand, and said with a hint of regret.

Although the matter was not accomplished, he had contributed. As for the 200 yuan deposit collected earlier, it will not be refunded.

Yes, the chance encounter between the two gang thugs was caused by Huangmao.

Although the boss only gave fifty yuan every time, there were always people who offered more.

The deposit is two hundred, and you can get two thousand after the deal is done.

"That's right, I couldn't have thought of that."

With his hands empty, Lao Liang felt unhappy and could only curse inwardly, but he still kept a smile on his face.

He used to run a night snack stall at the intersection of the night market, but he couldn't stand the harassment from two gang thugs, so Lao Liang had no choice but to give up. However, he met Huangmao in the process.

Seeing that kid who hasn't even fully grown his hair yet is doing things so quickly, Lao Liang is naturally unhappy, so he specially finds Huangmao to create this encounter between the two major gangs.

Unfortunately, the effort failed.

"Okay, come to me next time if you need anything."

After smoking a pack of cigarettes, Huangmao left with satisfaction, completing the business deal, leaving behind only an angry look.

In the early morning, the sun was shining brightly on the earth. Zhou Anan, who was sweating profusely, kept adjusting his breathing, shifting his attention to the surrounding river scenery, and insisted on finishing the three laps today.

There were still no encounters with morning jogging. Young people these days don’t like morning exercises, especially since Lizhou City is originally a small county town, so Zhou Anan’s vague expectations became a bubble.

Sure enough, everything on TV is a lie.

While running, he met a beautiful woman, who accidentally sprained her leg, so the hero sent her home. After that, the two of them developed a relationship and became a couple that everyone envied.

This scene makes people feel so sad.

Forget it, I'd better take a shower and go to the class reunion.
