I am reborn as a fashionista

Chapter 6 Make Money

"Auntie, Mom, I'm going to bring some breakfast to Aunt Liu."

Zhou Xingrong came here very early. Her family lives in Jiangnan, and it is only ten minutes’ walk from the morning market. Knowing that her sister set up a stall on the first day today, she came early to help. She saw her nephew sitting on a small bench skillfully weighing, Zhou Xingrong was very happy about bagging and collecting money, this child is quite sensible.

At a stall not far away, I bought noodles for my sister and nephew, so that she could watch over them when there were few people, and they had some breakfast quickly.

Wei Tao also bought a bowl of noodles for Aunt Liu and sent them over.

Zhou Xinglian and the eldest sister also talked about Sister Liu's matter, Zhou Xingrong nodded thoughtfully: "Don't offend her, please beg more, give me a smile, Xiaotao has done a good job, we can help as much as possible, But this is a business, who doesn’t want to earn more. Xiaotao will come back in a while, I’ll go and have a look.”

Wei Tao came back after about 10 minutes, holding the small plastic bowl of the noodle stand in his hand, and he helped Aunt Liu to watch over there, and he came back after letting the other party finish eating.

"The morning market is over, I'll take you to a place where you can set up stalls during the day."

………………

After all, as a novice, he had been busy all morning, had breakfast against the wind, and the management staff began to clear the field after seven o'clock. Seeing that nearly half of the vegetables were left, Zhou Xinglian was somewhat worried.

On the way, she found a shady corner, and she couldn't wait to start counting the money in her pocket, and she was still more than 100 yuan short of the original amount. I have done business, but I never thought that buying a vegetable can make such a big profit.

"Sister, son, if you buy 200 yuan today, you can earn more than 300 yuan."

Wei Tao smiled, and wiped the sweat from his temples with the clean part of the sleeves of the technical school uniform: "Mom, that's not the way to calculate it. The ones sold are of good quality, and the prices for the rest are lower. Some poor ones may have to be packaged and sold together, minus the morning market booth fee, we two eat, drink, and gas, and it would be good to have a little over a hundred dollars left."

Zhou Xinglian was stunned for a moment, and the smile on her face faded: "That's a lot, how much does it cost me to work for a month..." What she didn't know was that due to the weather, the flow of people, the quality of the product, etc., A good start does not mean that she can earn these every day, and she has not experienced the normal state of losing money.

At the intersection of the apartment building where Zhou Xingrong's family lives, there is a newsstand that can barely survive for a few years in this era.

Sell ​​newspapers, sell magazines, sell some drinks and mineral water, and set up two public phones. In the past few years, if anyone could get such a newsstand, the income would be very good.

On the curb, except for the newsstand, there is no green land. There is not much urban greening, and there are not so many vehicles these days. There are still many vacant places.

The place does not belong to anyone, as long as you are not occupying the road for business, no one will take care of you, at most you will pay a little fee.

This road is not connected. Walking through this intersection, there are only some residential buildings and bungalows, so the flow of people is very fixed, and they are all fixed residents in the small street.

Zhou Xingrong signaled Wei Tao to unload the vegetables on the ground, and then drove the car around to the opening of the curb, pushed it up, and pushed it to the back.

"You guys set up stalls here. There may not be many people during the day, but you can still sell some after get off work. Try it. If it doesn't work, think of a way."

There are no more than two ways, renting stalls in the vegetable market, and selling in the streets and alleys of residential areas.

Wei Tao knew that Aunt Liu was selling vegetables at the door of her original unit every day. The aunt did not bring herself and her mother there, presumably because she was worried that good intentions would turn into bad things, and the matter of asking for help turned into an enemy in the end.

If it comes, it will be safe, and now Wei Tao is stable, let his mother take most of the money away, and signal her to go back to sleep and rest, don't be in a hurry, just come back at two or three in the afternoon.Zhou Xinglian did not agree, but told him to go back to sleep.

Seeing the excitement of being able to make money by doing business for the first time in the mother's eyes, compared with the struggle and hesitation when she first studied the stall selling vegetables, now she is immersed in the stacks of small change in her pocket, immersed in the future. Amidst the excitement of the transformation of ground vegetables into banknotes lies before you.

Riding a three-wheeled motorcycle, in an era when there were not many vehicles on the road, I felt very wonderful. I drove fast all the way, and dissipated all the sweat and heat from the busy morning. I went back to the small courtyard, connected a large basin of water, and put it under the wall. As long as no one enters the courtyard, you can't see it here.

Wei Tao only wore boxer shorts, put a towel on his neck, squatted down, lowered his head, picked up the water in the basin with both hands, and splashed it on his face and head. The coolness hit instantly, and the skin surface felt hot and hot Dispel most of them.

Wet the towel and wiped the body, the water fell on the ground of the small courtyard, gathered in the small gutter in the low place, and flowed out of the courtyard.

He dried himself off, changed into boxers, washed off the wet ones, dried them on the clothesline in the yard, and lay comfortably on his little bed before the sun was at its peak.

Sleepy and tired, more cranky thoughts, thinking about the 20 years I have passed, and recalling my own experience during this period of time.

What a beautiful proposition to live a new life and reminisce about youth.

Wei Tao smiled wryly, forcing himself not to think about those things.Which youth does not have a white moonlight in his heart that looks far away and fantasizes?Which youthful years do not have some memorable past?In which ignorant youthful era did not have ideals that seemed lofty but actually illusory?

A pack of cigarettes shared among friends in Internet cafes at night, and finally the years of looking for butts (cigarette butts) in the ashtray.

Buy a few game coins for one dollar, and find a large-scale cooperative customs clearance game in the game hall. Four people, one coin per person, can play through for an hour or two of fun.

"call!"

Reminiscing is not as attractive as actual operation. After paying five yuan for the night in the Internet cafe, there is nothing in my pocket. Those years have passed, and it is fun to reminisce occasionally. up.

There is no such thing as Bai Yueguang, an ordinary person who succumbs to reality after being devastated by the years.

How can there be any real poor joy, one time is poor joy, and two times is the incompetence of not thinking ahead.

A few taels of broken silver, it's ridiculous when you think about it, as a human being, how can you bend your waist for five buckets of rice, but it's really delicious to really have a few taels of broken silver.

In the midst of wild thoughts, he fell asleep until he was woken up by the rising temperature in the room, covered in sweat, and glanced at the alarm clock on the small desk beside the bed, it was [-]:[-].

In just a few hours, the heat from the sun completely overwhelmed the indoor and outdoor temperature of the house. Until two or three hours after sunset, if there is no draft, the inside of the house will be like a small steam oven.

Since the mother is not good at cooking with a stove, she can only use it to heat the kang and boil water in a large pot. After the mother and son moved here, they still bought gas tanks and stoves. The fourth uncle helped build a shelf with wooden boards, and covered it A stone slab acts as a hearth.

Wash the rice and cook.

Wei Tao didn't know it before, but later he was more used to using rice cookers, and he switched back to using the old-fashioned rice cooker with a press. The ratio of water to rice is good, so it's not difficult.

The gas tank was unscrewed and the stove was lit. With the cucumbers and tomatoes brought back in the morning, Wei Tao made scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and made a plain cucumber with MSG and salt.

When the meal is ready, first use the insulated lunch box to pack the meal and vegetables for my mother, then use a small bowl at home, fill it with cucumbers, put it in a plastic bag and put it aside, and then eat the rest of the meal by myself He attributed the increase in appetite to his own labor and was no longer a young man who was idle and eating.

He is not familiar with the neighbors around him. Wei Tao, who came out on a three-wheeled motorcycle, saw someone chatting in the shade under the wall not far away. It's okay to say hello, but if we get to know each other in a few days, it will be a little awkward to meet each other's eyes.

All the way to the place where my mother set up a stall, before he could speak, my mother leaned over with a hint of joy on her face: "It's almost paid off, and the rest is earned..."
