“Okay, Brother Yu Hui, I guarantee I’ll complete the mission!” Pan Tiezhu said resolutely.
There was a pause.
He then whispered, "But I have a small request."
"What request?" Yu Hui asked.
"If I buy the groceries for you today, could you also make me a braised chicken dish?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Hui burst into laughter.
"I thought it was something else, of course you can."
After they finished talking, they parted ways with perfect understanding.
With the note written by Yu Hui and two thousand yuan in cash, Pan Tiezhu began to go door to door to make purchases.
After returning to the staff dormitory, Yu Hui also prepared to go down the mountain to buy ingredients.
He wasn't sure if Pan Tiezhu would be able to successfully purchase the goods.
His current worry is that there won't be enough ingredients to set up his stall.
Just to be on the safe side, Yu Hui decided to buy the ingredients himself.
Since I have a portable storage box, I don't need to worry about keeping the food fresh.
He had originally planned to ride the tricycle down the mountain, but suddenly remembered that he had nailed the tricycle, steel plates, and wooden planks together.
It cannot be disassembled.
This tricycle was originally intended for street vending and not for transportation.
This was his oversight.
Yu Hui had no choice but to find another way to get down the mountain.
He called over a mountain dweller and rode down the mountain on his motorcycle.
But he got off the bus when they were halfway up the mountain.
For no other reason than that the motorcyclist's skills were just too terrible...
Yu Hui never expected that one day he would get carsick while riding a motorcycle.
One more thing.
This mountain road is difficult to drive on; one wrong step and you could have an accident. Yu Hui doesn't want to lose his life here.
There are buses and cable cars halfway up the mountain, and he was lucky enough to catch the last bus this time.
These bus drivers are all professionally trained, and most of them are veterans who were drivers in the military, so their skills are top-notch.
There's no need to worry about safety.
After boarding the bus, Yu Hui let out a long sigh, put on his headphones, and played a Jay Chou song.
"The sparrows outside the window are chattering on the telephone wires; you say your English has a very summery feel to it..."
As the familiar melody began, Yu Hui closed his eyes and fell asleep shortly afterward.
When I woke up again, I was already at the foot of the mountain.
......
As dusk fades, night falls.
Yu Hui stayed at home for a while before driving his dad's van out the door.
The fresh produce wholesale market had already closed by then, but it wasn't a big problem.
Jiang Cheng was his old classmate. After just one phone call, Jiang Cheng delivered 100 jin (50 catties) of free-range chicken to his home.
Yu Hui plans to buy all the other ingredients at a large supermarket in one go.
The large supermarket in the evening not only had special offers, but the quality was also quite good. I got a great deal this time.
After buying all the ingredients, it was almost nine o'clock when Yu Hui realized that he hadn't eaten yet.
He turned the car key, ready to drive back to the mountaintop, when he received a call from his mother.
"Hey, my darling son, have you bought all the groceries? Do you have time to come home for dinner? I made your favorite sauerkraut fish."
"Forehead......"
Just then, Yu Hui was also hungry, so he said, "I just finished buying groceries, so I'll come back here."
After hanging up the phone, Yu Hui turned the steering wheel and drove home.
......
Back home.
As soon as Yu Hui stepped through the door, the aroma of food wafted over.
"It smells so good~~~~~~"
"You little glutton, I knew you hadn't eaten, I've already served you your food."
"Come over here!" Guo Fang smiled and beckoned Yu Hui to the dining table for a meal.
At the dining table.
Guo Fang picked up a piece of fish and put it into Yu Hui's bowl.
"Eat more, setting up a street stall is hard work!"
"Okay!" Yu Hui nodded and buried himself in his work.
Guo Fang found it strangely cute to watch her son eat so frantically.
Time flies!
That little brat who used to pick up hard dog poop and mistake it for a rock has grown up in the blink of an eye!
She looked at the afterglow, opened her mouth and closed it several times before finally speaking.
"Hui'er, how are your sales figures today?"
Although Yu Hui's braised chicken was delicious, Guo Fang was still unsure whether her stall business would be successful.
Yu Hui paused for a moment, then replied, "Not bad."
At this moment, even the usually taciturn Yu Jun spoke up.
"If you encounter any difficulties on your first day of trial operation, you can tell your father. Maybe he can give you some advice."
Unlike Guo Fang, he wasn't worried about Yu Hui at all.
Boys, you know~
It's good to exercise more.
However, he also hopes to be a guiding light on his son's long journey.
Yu Hui, of course, understood Yu Jun's good intentions.
He understood this in his heart.
Even though I have my own system, my dad's more than 20 years of social experience is still worth learning from.
"Sure, if I encounter any difficulties in the future, I will definitely come to you for help."
"Not at the moment."
"Perhaps it's because Chuanshan did a good job with the promotion this time, there's a lot of foot traffic. I didn't even make enough braised chicken to sell today!"
To make a double entendre.
This not only clearly explained today's sales situation but also preserved Yu Jun's "face" as a father.
Upon hearing this, both Yu Jun and Guo Fang beamed with smiles.
"My darling son is so wonderful!"
"Eat quickly, or the food will get cold if we chat for a few minutes."
After dinner, Yu Hui volunteered to do the dishes.
