Chapter 8 Other People's Children
Before, when she was at the vegetable market, Zhou Anan had already washed all the vegetables in the public sink over there, saving a lot of water bills.
In this difficult stage of starting a business, save as much as you can.
"Thank you, big brother."
Seeing that the other party was busy, the girl did not disturb him.
She is not that interested in the older brother who is not handsome.
After taking two steps towards the store, the girl turned around and called out to the older brother who was busy with his work, "Oh, brother, my name is Hu Yuxuan. Don't make a mistake. I'll give you a 50% discount when the time comes."
"no problem."
Without even looking up, Zhou Anan, feeling a little thirsty, picked up the bottle of mineral water next to her and took a sip.
"Hu Yuxuan, cough, cough, cough."
Zhou Anan, who was drinking water and muttering the other person's name, couldn't help but spit out the water in his mouth when he came to his senses.
Hu Yuxuan, that little enchantress he met when he was working in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau after graduation in his previous life, was he kidding me?
I still remember that Hu Yuxuan, who had just graduated from college at that time, wore shorts or short skirts every day. She always wore black or white stockings on her not-so-long legs. She was definitely the most common topic of conversation among the younger generation in the office.
Even Zhou Anan would secretly glance at each other every time they met in the cafeteria.
If there is a chance, chatting with the other person for a few minutes will make him feel a little happier.
When the night was quiet, Zhou Anan, who had nothing to do, had fantasies, some of which were simply outrageous.
This is the mentality of fishing.
At this moment, Zhou Anan really found it difficult to combine this innocent little girl in jeans with the little enchantress who showed off her beautiful legs every day in her previous life. The change was too big.
By the way, Lizhou is too small.
Also, the current Hu Yuxuan has not grown up at all, and there is not much sensual element in his youthfulness. How could he have thought about the other person in his previous life?
It's been a while, so I don't remember it very well. I just vaguely remember it, and it left a deep impression.
After all, those green years and the unruly life after the career development period are rarely remembered.
"Xiao Anzi, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Rong, who had just found the barbecue stall, looked at Zhou Anan who was coughing with her head down and asked in confusion.
"It's okay. I choked on the water. Come, let me tell you something."
Waving his hands, Zhou Anan stood up, calmed his heart, and adjusted his shocked worldview.
He also figured it out. The father of this little beauty was a colleague of his uncle-in-law, so it was normal for her to work as a temporary worker in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau after graduation.
It's just that things are unpredictable.
"I see."
Putting on gloves, Wang Rong started working skillfully.
I had called Jian Rongrong before when I went to buy groceries. When Zhou Anan saw him coming, she didn't say anything polite and directly told him to do this and that.
A monthly salary of two thousand yuan is not something that can be easily agreed upon. Zhou Anan, whose future is uncertain, doesn't know whether Jian Rongrong will chop him with a kitchen knife if his business fails.
Without time to consider the possibility of failure, Zhou Anan took the bus to the hardware city to look for the most important tool - the barbecue grill.
At present, the economic development of Lizhou City has not yet entered the era of rapid development, and barbecue grills are not yet available in general small department stores. Zhou Anan can only look for them in hardware stores.
As for whether there is anyone selling it, haha, the great people of Lizhou will tell you that as long as it is a hardware product in the world, they can buy it for you.
I’m afraid you can’t express it, but there’s nothing you can’t buy.
Moreover, we can make you any style of big brands, absolutely at a good price and good quality.
"Fifty-two. If you don't sell it, I'll go look for the next buyer."
Zhou Anan fiddled with the barbecue rack that the merchant quoted at one hundred and fifty yuan each, and the price went from twenty-one to fifty-two.
Although this barbecue rack does not require any technical skills, the two extra bags of smokeless charcoal placed in the corner were attractive, so Zhou Anan bargained for fifteen minutes.
The other party only had two barbecue racks left, and the rest of the goods were just put on the display. It was obviously a transformed business, so it would be a waste not to cut corners.
"Sixty, sixty, these two bags of charcoal are a gift to you."
The middle-aged boss who was sorting out new merchandise couldn't stand the little guy's persistence. Anyway, the two barbecue grills were in the way, so he just considered it a clearance price.
It was the first time that the middle-aged boss met such a young man. He was so shameless that he really admired him.
"Okay, boss, can you help deliver the goods to your door? My store is very close, right next to the night market."
Patting the sturdy barbecue grill with satisfaction, Zhou Anan asked with a smile.
“.”
"Thank you, boss."
Placing the barbecue grill steadily on the ground, Zhou Anan clapped his hands and handed sixty yuan to the boss.
"You're welcome. I've never seen a young man as good at bargaining as you are. Come to my place and buy a few cups when you have time."
After taking the money, the middle-aged boss, who had recovered from his previous depression, looked squarely at the boy in front of him whose hair had not yet fully grown, and compared him with the boy in his own family, his heart was filled with emotion.
If he had half the understanding of this child, all the hard work would be worth it.
"Of course, of course. But I heard that a certain website has been developing well recently. The boss can put the cups on it and sell them."
Seeing such an easy-going boss, Zhou Anan, who had already become someone else's child, didn't mind revealing some future business opportunities.
In the next few years, countless people from Lizhou will follow in Ma Ali's footsteps and become millionaires, tens of millions of dollars, or even billionaires.
Of course, whether the boss can seize this opportunity depends on his luck.
After finishing the barbecue rack and taking it back to the stall, Zhou Anan looked at the vegetables neatly arranged on the wooden rack. Among them, only meat skewers and chicken wings were meat. She always felt that something important was missing.
Buying less meat on the first day of business is also to reduce expenses. After all, it’s okay to keep vegetables until tomorrow. What’s the reason?
Oh, right, crayfish.
Zhou Anan, who had been hanging out at barbecue stalls for many years in his previous life, had a special liking for crayfish. From time to time, he would buy ten or eight kilograms of crayfish to grill at home, and he never got tired of eating them.
The most important thing is that crayfish makes huge profits.
In the past, he would buy crayfish at the market for only 18 or 21 kilograms, and the most expensive was only around 28 kilograms. However, the crayfish sold at the barbecue stalls start at 51 kilograms, and 61 kilograms without the heads is considered cheap.
After deducting the labor cost, it seems that the profit is not much, but the side dishes on the plate are too many. The peppers that used to cost a few cents or three yuan per pound have become fifty or sixty yuan per pound, which makes people salivate.
Feeling his pocket, Zhou Anan looked at the remaining two hundred-dollar bills, said something to Jian Rongrong, and ran to the farmer's market across the street again.
"Why not?"
When she came to the seafood area, Zhou Anan looked at the rows of fish, shrimps and crabs, but found no trace of crayfish.
