As an adult, Wen Ying, after being surprised, can still understand her parents' emotional needs.
Not to mention her mental age, even her current physical age is 16 years old. It's not like Wen Ying can't take care of herself if she is left behind by her parents for a day.
What's more, there was good news today. The editor of "Aige" told her that her two novels had passed the review and would be published in November and December respectively. The royalties would be paid after publication.
"Xiaoyu, your control over the story's rhythm isn't like that of a new author. What you lacked before was delicate emotional descriptions, but now you're improving with each piece. I don't know what's going on in your life, but I can only say this is a good change. If you're interested, you can try to conceive a long serialized story. I can't guarantee that your manuscript will be accepted, but you can give it a try."
Wen Ying submitted three manuscripts to the same magazine and the same editor, and finally received an invitation from the editor to write another article.
It turns out that a person's mood really affects his writing state. The editor said that good changes have taken place in Wen Ying's life, and Wen Ying did not deny it.
Compared to her previous life, her life now is indeed good.
My aunt Chen Li and my uncle Deng Shangwei have not divorced.
She gradually figured out how to get along with her parents.
Made some good friends again.
These changes have made Wen Ying a softer person. When she is calm, she can feel the little details in life better. Some people always say that only pain can produce profound works. Wen Ying does not deny it, but she will hide the pain. She wants her works to bring a little warmth to others.
The editor asked her to write a long serial. Wen Ying wanted to take advantage of this weekend to think about it carefully. She originally wanted to listen to Chen Ru and stay at home. But the foreman of the "Shrimp King" store decoration team called Wen Ying and asked her to come over to take a look.
October is the end of the crayfish season. After October, the crayfish meat is not as plump and the crayfish business enters the off-season.
Da Liu, the owner of a barbecue restaurant, caught up with the last quarter of this year. His franchise store is not located in the night snack street, and it has been very popular since its opening.
Wen Ying and her friends' own physical store was renovated relatively slowly because they wanted to make it a template to attract franchisees, and the progress was even slower than that of Liu Da's store.
The off-season for crayfish does not mean that the business of "Shrimp King" has also entered the off-season. Although the investment in physical stores is greater than that of roadside stalls, it does have its advantages. Unlike roadside stalls, there are not so many restrictions. Even for midnight snacks in winter, diners do not have to suffer from the cold on the roadside. Everyone can sit in the store and eat slowly, turn on the air conditioner, and drink some wine. It is still worth a trip.
As the quality of crayfish was not good, Wen Ying suggested promoting mud shrimp, clams and spicy crabs in winter. The development of these dishes was to ensure that "Shrimp King" still had revenue during the crayfish off-season, to protect the interests of Wen Ying and others and franchisees, but it infringed on the interests of others.
The physical stores on the night snack street have not opened yet, so these dishes are temporarily sold at temporary stalls. In order to promote word of mouth, the prices of these dishes are relatively cheap. The first one to be affected is the seafood food stall that Shu Guobing opened first on the night snack street. The workers hired by Shu Guobing have had several conflicts with the workers at the "Shrimp King" stall.
The foreman of the decoration team called Wen Ying over because the decoration workers had just arrived today and found that a lot of filth had been thrown on the construction site.
It was too disgusting to describe in words. When Wen Ying arrived, the foreman had already had someone clean up the scene.
The filth has been cleaned up, but the stench has not yet dissipated.
The decoration team was introduced by Deng Shangwei. The foreman also knew that Wen Ying was Deng Shangwei's niece. When notifying Wen Ying, he also notified Deng Shangwei. Deng Shangwei arrived faster than Wen Ying.
Seeing Wen Ying, Deng Shangwei comforted her: "It's just a small matter. Maybe someone took the easy way out and dumped their garbage in the wrong place."
"Uncle, please stop lying like that. Anyone with eyesight can see that this isn't a garbage dump. This isn't perversion; it's intentional."
When Wen Ying heard this, she immediately identified the suspect.
No one else but Shu Guobing would use such despicable and inferior means.
If the physical store of "Shrimp King" opens smoothly, the one that will be most affected will be Shu Guobing's seafood stall.
Besides, even if they don't compete in business, with Zhao Dong around, how can Wen Ying make money happily?
Deng Shangwei was also afraid that Wen Ying would act impulsively. Wen Ying smiled and said, "Uncle, I always convince people with reason."
“…”
What a good way to convince people with reason!
He spoke as if it was someone else who took advantage of his misfortune to ask him for pocket money.
Deng Shangwei asked Wen Ying what she planned to do. Wen Ying walked around the shop and said, "There are safety hazards here. I'm going to talk to Director Lu about it."
Night Snack Street is an old street that is very popular, but modern facilities cannot keep up.
During the previous food festival, the subdistrict office improved the environmental sanitation, making the shops and temporary stalls in the night snack street more standardized and tidy. However, to build a modern street, improving the environmental sanitation alone is far from enough.
There was no mobile payment in 2004, and people would carry their wallets when they went out. The more crowded the place, the more thieves there were. The worst-hit areas for theft in Chengdu were mainly at the train station and several large wholesale markets, especially the Lotus Pond Wholesale Market. If you went there with your bag and took a walk around, there would often be a hideous big hole on your bag when you left!
The night snack street is better, but thefts still happen frequently.
Wen Ying wanted to install a few surveillance cameras around the "Shrimp King" store, and she had to inform Director Lu about this.
She deliberately made an appearance in front of Director Lu. If the surveillance camera caught someone breaking the rules, Wen Ying would definitely not show mercy.
