Xu Ning's hot pot restaurant opened in the fall. During the summer vacation this year, she and Song Mingyuan, Lu Xiaoran, and Mingyu went to Guangdong Province.
She went to Shenzhen specifically to buy a house. It was now the autumn of 1979, and in a few months it would be difficult to buy a house in Shenzhen.
She bought two more courtyards, one each for Xu Yang, Xiao An, Xiao Mo, and one each for Song Mingyuan and Mingyu.
Not long after returning from Guangdong Province, three hot pot restaurants opened at the same time.
Some of the service staff in the store were comrades introduced by Lu Xiaotang and Huo Zhenting, and a few female comrades were recruited before the opening.
There were not many people on the opening day, but within two days, the hot pot restaurant's brand was promoted and the three stores were basically packed every day.
Song Mingyuan had to go to school during the day, so Grandpa Qi and Grandpa Wang went there to look after him. The two old men were busy from morning to night and their bodies could not bear it.
Seeing that this was not going to work, Xu Ning discussed with Song Mingyuan and asked Wang Erquan to send three eloquent and relatively steady people from the factory to be managers of the three hot pot restaurants.
After lunch, Xu Ning and Zhao Yafei went back to the dormitory hand in hand to rest.
As soon as I opened the door of the dormitory, I heard Wang Weiwei saying that we were going to a newly opened hot pot restaurant to eat hot pot in the evening.
"My boyfriend told me that he and his colleagues had eaten there two days ago and it was delicious. He said he would take me to try it tonight."
"Is it Brothers Hotpot Restaurant? I happened to see the restaurant opening when I went shopping a few days ago. From the outside, the hotpot restaurant looks pretty big."
Wang nodded slightly, "That's the one. My boyfriend said that all three stores opened on the same day, so they must have the same boss."
Xu Ning and Zhao Yafei greeted the people in the dormitory with a smile, then went out with the basin to wash their faces.
Wang Weiwei hadn't spoken since the two of them came in. A few days ago, she heard from her classmates that Zhao Yafei was dating Xu Ning's younger brother.
She also said that her younger brother was a law student and her parents were professors at Kyoto University.
After the two of them went out, she continued chatting and laughing with her roommates and invited them to have hotpot together in the evening.
The other two shook their heads and refused. They were going out to eat with their partners, so who would be so tactless as to be a third wheel?
After they left the dormitory, Zhao Yafei said with a smile, "Hey, what would Wang Weiwei's expression be if she knew that you opened that hot pot restaurant?"
"I don't know what her expression was, but I'm sure she won't patronize us again after she finds out."
The two looked at each other and smiled slyly.
After school in the afternoon, when Xu Ning was riding his bicycle past the school gate, he saw Wu Guangbo. He should be waiting for Wang Weiwei.
When he saw Xu Ning coming out, he gave her an ambiguous look and turned his head to the other side.
Xu Ning didn't even look at him and rode his bike past him.
A batch of autumn clothes arrived a few days ago. These two days are the time of season change, and several clothing stores are doing good business. She has to go back to help them prepare clothes.
Jianhua and Dawa have been here for seven months and have already bought a yard in Beijing. They are very motivated and are planning to buy a small shop before the New Year.
As soon as she reached the door of her house, Xiao Mo and several brothers came out carrying two large bags of clothes.
Now he has more and more brothers, and they set up two stalls in the square. Skinny Monkey recruited a few more brothers and set up three stalls.
Now Xiao Mo has increased the commission that he gives to Shouhou, so he doesn't make much money from Shouhou anymore.
He only took 20% of the labor fee and gave all the remaining profits to Skinny Monkey.
After all, Skinny Monkey has brothers to support, so 20% is not a small amount for him.
He planned to test Shouhou for a few more months. If he was still so honest by the New Year, he would let him buy goods directly from Xu Ning next year and would not take his 20% profit.
"Xiao Mo, why are you out so late today?" Their school ends earlier than the university. Usually when Xu Ning comes back, Xiao Mo and the others have already left.
"Sister, isn't this the beginning of the new semester? There are a lot of things to do at school, and as the class monitor, I can't come back so early every day.
Alas, if I had known there would be so many things to do in junior high school, I would not have been the class monitor. It would have delayed my earning money. ”
Xu Ning found it funny that he seemed to be complaining but was actually showing off. This kid has been obsessed with power since he was young, and he must be so proud of himself now.
She nodded deliberately and seriously, and said, "Being a class monitor is quite time-consuming. How about I talk to your teacher tomorrow and ask him to choose someone else as the class monitor?"
When Xiao Mo heard her say this, he immediately became anxious, "Sister, why are you looking for our teacher? I just complained a little. Who said I don't want to be the class monitor?"
Xu Ning suppressed his laughter and asked, "Didn't you say that being a monitor would delay your earning money? Isn't it okay for me to push it off for you and the teacher?"
"My being the monitor has nothing to do with me making money, sister, please don't worry about it.
Since the teacher has chosen me, I will be a good monitor who can share the worries of the teacher and students.
How can I give up halfway just for a small matter? This is not my style. ”
Afraid that his sister would say that he would not be the monitor again, he said to Bae Yong-joon and Dahai, "Brothers, let's go quickly. Yesterday, a few sisters said that they would bring people to buy clothes today. If we go too late, they won't be able to find us."
As he spoke, he carried the bag and walked quickly forward, while Bae Yong-joon and Dahai followed him jogging behind.
