Han Lei is a teacher and is on summer vacation. He thought he would have more time to ask Lin Xiaocui out, but he didn't expect to find out that she was away on a business trip.
It was during these ten days that he experienced the pain of unrequited love.
It turns out that during this time together, he had unknowingly fallen in love with her.
Her quirky and clever appearance and straightforward personality are far superior to any of the wealthy heiresses I've encountered before.
He now realizes that girls can be confidantes and have endless topics to talk about.
In the future, he also wants to travel with her, watch movies together, and eat delicious food together...
He longed to spend the rest of his life with her.
Having figured this out, he immediately went back to school, got a letter of introduction, and bought a train ticket to Baidaihe.
......
In the afternoon, people wearing swimsuits gradually came to the beach, ready to jump into the seawater to feel the coolness.
Lin Xiaocui also pushed the refrigerator out of the recuperation center.
She borrowed a small cart with wheels, which fit the refrigerator perfectly, making it easier to push.
As for the electricity connection, an electrician has already helped her get it connected, and she even bought a pack of Daqianmen cigarettes as a token of her gratitude.
The refrigerator was filled with soft drinks, cola, beer, and other cold beverages that she had bought wholesale from the supply and marketing cooperative the night before, neatly arranged in the refrigerator compartments.
There's also a compartment specifically for popsicles, with several flavors like mung bean and cream.
As soon as she pushed her refrigerator out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, and several young men even whistled at her.
"Young lady, what are you doing?" a middle-aged woman asked curiously.
Lin Xiaocui then took out the prepared cardboard and showed it to her older sister. It had the following words written on it in calligraphy:
"Cold drinks and popsicles"
"Soft drinks are 0.5 yuan per bottle, cola is 2.5 yuan per bottle, bottled liquor is 0.6 yuan per bottle, mung bean popsicles are 0.1 yuan each, and cream popsicles are 0.2 yuan each."
Prices are clearly marked, so we don't have to keep asking questions.
When the older sister saw the price, she genuinely felt it wasn't expensive, because other places that don't sell chilled drinks at the same price also do.
She immediately went to Lin Xiaocui and bought her a cream popsicle, giving her two cents.
Lin Xiaocui happily put the money into her bag.
Her purchase price is basically one-third of the selling price, and as long as the sales volume is large, the income is quite considerable.
With the eldest sister taking the lead, more and more people came to buy. Since they could come here to swim, they didn't care about the money spent on food and drinks.
The refrigerator could hold hundreds of bottles of cold drinks and two hundred popsicles. In just two hours, she sold everything and earned a total of more than five hundred yuan.
After deducting costs, there are still two or three hundred yuan left.
She never imagined that cold drinks could be so profitable.
She felt it was a real pity that she was all alone; if someone had helped her, she could have sold even more.
Earning back the cost of the refrigerator in just one day gave her tremendous confidence.
She decided to go back and plan this matter more carefully.
She put the cardboard on the refrigerator and pushed it back towards the nursing home.
Someone behind her asked, "Young lady, will you come again tomorrow?"
“Come on, to the usual spot,” Lin Xiaocui replied with a smile.
After storing the refrigerator at the sanatorium, she hurried to the supply and marketing cooperative.
However, before going inside, I saw a beverage stall next to it.
"Hey little brother, do you wholesale drinks here?" The man running the stall was a young man who was not yet twenty years old.
The handsome young man glanced at Lin Xiaocui, his brows furrowing slightly. He looked like a high school student, yet she called him "brother."
"Wholesale is possible," he said coolly, without fussing over the details.
There's no reason to ignore customers when they come in.
Lin Xiaocui happily asked about the price again. When she bought things at the supply and marketing cooperative, they didn't deliver them. Yesterday, she went to great lengths and spent two yuan to find a tricycle to take the drinks she bought to the sanatorium.
If you do that every day, you'll exhaust yourself.
The young man quoted a price, saying that if the quantity was large, the price could be even lower than that of the supply and marketing cooperative.
“Okay, little brother, what’s your name? Can you deliver to my door?” Lin Xiaocui asked expectantly.
Wang Qi blushed slightly, glanced back at her, and quickly replied:
"Just call me Wang Qi, I can deliver goods."
The next second, when Wang Qi's father returned from the toilet, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his son, who had come back for summer vacation, had actually closed a big deal.
Lin Xiaocui's order volume is quite large, around three to five hundred bottles of each item, and she orders such a large quantity every day, so she is definitely a big customer.
"Wang Qi, since you don't have anything else to do during the summer vacation, you can help Lin Xiaocui with deliveries from now on. The bottles that are sold out should be recycled into wooden crates and transported back."
It's great to have big clients; they get dedicated service.
She had originally planned to ask someone for help!
After the deal was settled, Lin Xiaocui asked Wang Qi to send the amount needed for tomorrow to the sanatorium first, to refrigerate some of it, and to sell it tomorrow.
By the time I finished, it was already evening.
Wang Qi left on his own. Lin Xiaocui stretched her aching shoulders and prepared to return to the guesthouse.
Unexpectedly, when she reached a secluded path, she suddenly heard a noise behind her. Turning around, she saw a stray cat darting out of the bushes.
She patted her chest, still shaken, and turned around to find two young men in floral shirts blocking her way.
"Little girl, where are you from? You were selling cold drinks on the beach this afternoon, weren't you? You have such a lovely voice."
A young man, with one hand in his pocket, said with a sly grin.
Another echoed:
"Looks like you're from the city. Let me take you to see a movie, there's a really good romance film showing right now."
Seeing their lewd behavior, Lin Xiaocui felt worse than if she had swallowed a fly.
"Brothers, I have some money here. You can take it. I know you mean no harm and are not trying to cause trouble."
Lin Xiaocui wanted to take a gamble; these people were only greedy for money, not lustful, and certainly didn't want to kill her.
She pulled a wad of ten-yuan notes from her bag, didn't even count them, just wrapped a few coins in them and threw them at the young man.
She was about four or five meters away from the two men. If she ran fast enough, she should have been able to escape when they picked up the money.
The two men, however, seemed uninterested in money. They gave a sly smile and slowly walked towards her.
His determined look made her back down.
What do you want to do?
"Don't you know what we're up to?"
People like Lin Xiaocui, who are from out of town, are just a waste of their time. Unless they are caught on the spot, they will never be held accountable.
Lin Xiaocui felt a wave of despair and prepared herself for a 100-meter sprint.
She turned and ran as fast as she could, shouting "Help!"
Although this place is remote, if you shout loudly, someone might come over.
Just as she was about to be grabbed by the two men, a dark figure rushed over and delivered a series of kicks to the two young men.
When she saw the person who saved her, a look of surprise appeared on her face.
