Traveling through the Eighth Five-Year Plan: Starting from selling fruit at a stall

With a phone call from Ling Qingfeng, the two cousins ​​were shaken over.

Along with them was Ling Rui's fiancé, Mo Mingming.

As soon as the three of them got off the train, Ling Qingfeng and Ji Zhongqiu hosted a banquet for them in the nearest state-run hotel.

Mo Mingming was a little restrained, looking at his handsome cousin and cousin-in-law, and at his big and ill-fitting blue Chinese tunic suit, he felt a strong sense of inferiority.

Sitting beside Ling Rui cautiously, without saying a word.

After all, Ling Xin only had a big braid at the back of her head, and she was still wearing the down jacket that Ling Yue gave her the year before last.

It was a beautiful lake blue color when it was given to her. After wearing it for two years, it turned pale after washing.

After five people were seated, Ling Xin asked: "Brother Qingfeng, we don't know anything. If you want us to come, aren't you afraid that we will offend the guests?"

Ling Qingfeng smiled and said: "If you offend a customer, I will deduct ten yuan from you. It depends on how much money you deduct in a month."

Ling Xin stared and said angrily: "Then how much salary do you pay me a month?"

"The trial period is five months, 30 yuan per month."

Unexpectedly, Ling Xin's eyes immediately widened: "Are you serious? It's 30 yuan a month, and you still have food and housing?"

"Did you hear clearly? If you offend a customer, I will deduct ten yuan from you. If you are not active in your work, I will also deduct you."

Ling Xin immediately smiled until her eyes narrowed: "Brother, I will work for you. If you dare to deduct a dime from me, I will tell my uncle and aunt to teach you a lesson."

Ling Rui patted her hand: "Okay, if you don't believe others, you still don't believe your brother?"

Immediately, he asked Ling Qingfeng sternly: "Brother Qingfeng, you took us all the way here, there must be other things, right?"

"It's like this." Ling Qingfeng put away his smile, "I want to do the rolling door business, but if I leave, the clothing store will not have enough manpower. I just thought that the two of you sisters are idle at home anyway, so I asked you to come and help me."

"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely do a good job."

Ling Rui said seriously: "My dad said, if it weren't for Sister Yue, our house would not be able to be built at all. He also said, if you want to build a house at home, just say hello, and you don't have to go back when the time comes."

Ling Yue did such a big favor to their family, Ling Changchun remembered it in his heart.

The adobe brick house of Ling Changqing is also quite old. There were still people living in it two years ago, and the house as a whole was still wrong, but no one lived in it in the past two years.

"We're not in a hurry about this matter." Ling Qingfeng said cheerfully, "But since my uncle has this heart, I'll send some money back when spring comes, and ask him to help with the arrangements."

The waiter brought the food quickly.

When Ling Xin saw the dishes on the table, her stomach gurgled in disbelief.

"Brother, why do you order so many dishes, the five of us can't finish them all?"

Ling Qingfeng ordered roast duck, braised fish, fried pork, homemade tofu, and a seaweed bone soup.

Ling Xin didn't even dare to think about these dishes at home, especially the roast duck, which she had never seen before.

"Let's eat. These dishes don't cost much. Although your brother and I don't make a lot of money, we can still afford to order food."

As he spoke, he put an extremely thin piece of roast duck into Ling Xin's bowl, "This is the famous roast duck in Beijing, you have never eaten it before."

After eating a piece of roast duck, Ling Xin narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

"Brother, is this really duck meat? It's really delicious."

"I still lie to you, but you ate the roast duck, so you have to be careful when you work. If I catch the handle, I can send you back to your hometown directly and let uncle take care of you."

"Can you stop scaring me with my dad? You clearly know that I'm most afraid of him, and you keep mentioning it."

After eating, Ling Qingfeng faced a choice.

The store on the side of the department store has no housing, while Ji Zhongqiu's store on the other side of Feng Weiwei's house has housing but only one room.

In the past, there were only the two of them big men, and it was okay to be squeezed into one bed.

But now that the two sisters Ling Rui and Ling Xin came with their prospective brothers-in-law, the place that was as big as a palm couldn't be accommodated at all.

Especially the two girls must have their own separate room.

"Xiao Rui Xiaoxin, you stay in the guest house for one night today, and we will rent a house tomorrow."

Ling Rui took care of Mo Mingming's emotions. He was originally introverted, so he didn't dare to say much during dinner, because he always felt that he was out of tune with them.

Originally, he didn't want to come, but he persuaded him for a long time before he reluctantly agreed to come.

He has a strong self-esteem, for things like opening a house, he would definitely not agree to let Ling Qingfeng open it.

She whispered to Ling Qingfeng: "Qingfeng, just tell us where the guest house is, we can do it ourselves."

Ling Qingfeng glanced at her, and when she saw her talking, he looked at Mo Mingming who was beside him from time to time, and suddenly understood everything in his heart.

He pulled Ling Rui aside and said, "Xiao Rui, did you find this boyfriend yourself or was introduced by your family?"

Ling Rui told the truth: "He is my high school classmate, although he doesn't talk much, but he is very diligent."

"You misunderstood. The clothing store is full of female employees. It's not suitable for him to go there as a big man. If you agree, I will take him to do the rolling door business together. You can ask him first to see what his plan is."

Ling Rui looked at him in surprise: "Are you serious?"

"I originally wanted to call you two over, who knew you would bring him?"

Ling Rui pursed his lips and said, "Then I'll talk to him tonight and see what he means."

"But let me say the ugly things first. Making rolling shutter doors is hard work. If he can't take it, then I can only let him go back as soon as possible."

Ling Rui stared at him: "Is there anyone who talks like that? How do you know he can't take it?"

Walking to Mo Mingming, Ling Rui carefully told him what Ling Qingfeng said, Mo Mingming raised his head and glanced at Ling Qingfeng: "He won't let me be with you?"

Ling Rui laughed and said, "Look where you're thinking! My brother said that clothing stores are basically staffed by women, and you're not suitable for a big man."

"Besides, he's also doing it for your own good. Look at you. You didn't say a word all night. If you are asked to sell clothes, I guess you can't even open your mouth."

Mo Mingming also knew his own situation.

He's really not good at promotions.

"Then what kind of rolling shutter door can I bear?"

"My brother hasn't decided yet. What he means is that if you agree to work with him, then the two of you will learn how to install rolling doors together."

"If you don't agree, then I can only let you go home."

Mo Mingming's face contorted immediately.

He glanced at Ling Qingfeng resentfully, and said bluntly: "Ling Rui, if I don't go back, I will be where you are."

Ling Rui helplessly conveyed his words to Ling Qingfeng.

Ling Qingfeng glanced at Ji Zhongqiu proudly, and said heartily: "Okay, then you can learn how to make a rolling door with me."

In the store, Ling Qingfeng chose two sets of clothes for Mo Mingming in front of Ji Zhongqiu: "Brother-in-law, you can wear these two sets of clothes. I don't mean to look down on you, if you wear your clothes and go to be an apprentice with me, maybe others will think of us."

"Also, the man's mouth is full of food. Don't dare to say anything like you were eating today."

Before Mo Mingming was holding two new sets of clothes, Ling Xin pouted and said, "Brother Feng, you are biased! You give clothes to brother-in-law, but if you don't give them to me, I want them too!"

Ji Zhongqiu laughed: "Okay, then you two can choose two sets too."

Ling Xin immediately smiled, "Thank you brother-in-law."

While talking, he still didn’t forget to complain: “I knew you guys had new clothes for me to wear, and why would I bring so many clothes!”

Soon, she chose two sets of clothes for herself.

A set of black flared trousers with a burgundy down jacket, and another set of beige trousers with a khaki trench coat.

These two sets of clothes are new products from Mochi Garment Factory, and they haven't been hung for a few days after delivery.

Ling Qingfeng looked at it and sighed: "Xiaoxin, you don't treat yourself as an outsider too much, these two sets of clothes are worth two months' salary of yours."

Ling Xin barked her teeth and said to him, "Who told you that you lied to me just now? You gave someone a salary of 120 yuan a month, but when you come to me, you directly reduce it to 30 yuan. I won't cheat you!"

Ling Rui frowned: "Qingfeng, you said these two sets of clothes cost more than 200 yuan?"

"It's all right, I'll tell your sister Yue when the time comes, anyway, these clothes are all from your sister Yue's factory."
