Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 837, leisurely

Jiang Yan happened to pass by Dashilan when he came back from Yanjing No. 1 Machine Tool Factory that day. He saw that there were quite a lot of people coming and going in Dashilar, so he asked the driver to stop and prepared to take a stroll in Dashilar. It was not difficult. Half a day's leisure is not an idle life.

"Big bowl of tea, two cents a bowl."

As soon as Jiang Yan entered Dashilan, he heard someone shouting at a large bowl of tea, so he stopped and looked at the small stall curiously, looking at a person who was shouting at his neck.

Jiang Yan knew this man. To be precise, he knew him in his previous life. This man was a legendary figure. He had responded to the call since June 1979. He resolutely threw away the "iron rice bowl" and led 6 educated youths to the west side of the Qianmen Arrow Tower. Started with 20 yuan. Set up a shed and cook the stove. Founded the Yanjing Big Bowl Tea Youth Tea Club.

At that time, the reform of the economic system had not yet begun, and everything was very unified. Although Qianmen is a commercial center, there is no merchant selling drinks. Visitors to Yanjing have no place to drink water. Some people even drink from water pipes on the street. After thinking about it, it was better to open a tea stall and sell old Yanjing's traditional cheap drink-big bowl of tea.

Since then, there has been a scene on the west side of the Qianmen Arrow Tower: a tea shed was crowded with people. On the large tray on the table, there were more than a dozen bowls of steaming tea with the fragrance of jasmine flowers. People took out two cups of tea from their pockets. For just two cents, you can take away a large bowl of tea and drink it. There were both Chinese and foreigners among the people drinking tea.

At the beginning of the tea house, it continued to carry forward the spirit of "Laoerfen" of the big bowl of tea people, and successively established more than ten stores in department stores, clothing, aquatic products, catering, jewelry and jade, etc., and formed a group company. Then he founded the famous BJ Lao She Teahouse at home and abroad.

In the era when Jiang Yan traveled back in time, Lao She Teahouse was a sight in Daqianmen, and many people went there because of its reputation.

Originally, Jiang Yan wanted to go in and drink a big bowl of tea and taste the taste of this big bowl of tea, but there were really many people here. Just when Jiang Yan was about to squeeze in, he suddenly heard someone shouting in front of him.

"Fragrant and crunchy melon seeds and peanuts, five-flavored peanuts and melon seeds, with thin skin and big ones. They only cost two cents a cup. They are good for both young and old."

This voice sounded quite familiar. Jiang Yan stopped and listened carefully. It was the voice of the third uncle Yan Bugui. This made Jiang Yan a little strange. Why did the third uncle Yan Bugui come here?

Thinking of this, Jiang Yan gave up drinking a big bowl of tea and quickly walked towards the shouting stall. He saw two cloth bags placed next to the third uncle and the third aunt. One cloth bag contained prepared peanuts. , a cloth bag contains copied melon seeds.

The third aunt collected the money, and the third uncle Yan Bugui was responsible for the decoration. She was quite agile and sold a lot in just a short time.

I have to say that the third uncle is quite fair. This cup of melon seeds is a cup of melon seeds, which is not bad at all.

"Hey, how come the third uncle is setting up a stall here!" After seeing no one, Jiang Yan walked forward and looked at Yan Bugui and joked.

"It's Xiao Jiang! Who did I think it was! Why do you have time to hang around here today? Come on, eat melon seeds, eat melon seeds." As he spoke, Yan Bugui took out a small handful of melon seeds from the bag of melon seeds and handed them to him. To Jiang Yan.

Through chatting with the third uncle Yan Bugui, Jiang Yan found out that this business was actually initiated by He Yuzhu's daughter-in-law Qin Huairu and Shitou's daughter-in-law Yu Li. Originally, Jiang Yan was just making an analogy, but he didn't take it seriously. The speaker was unintentional and the listener was interested. , after returning home, Qin Huairu asked He Yuzhu to copy some peanuts and melon seeds. Not to mention, the taste was quite good. After feeling better, Qin Huairu encouraged Yu Li and his wife to do this work together, but his own The daughter-in-law refused directly when she had a job, so Yu Li and Qin Huairu started working together.

Originally, two people were selling melon seeds, but this sale was not a big deal. Because of the good taste and fair price, the reputation of the melon seeds became famous among the two sisters. Naturally, the people in the courtyard were jealous, and they discussed joining the business, but these two people also They are quite thieves. It is impossible to join the gang, but they can wholesale melon seeds from the two of them. As a result, these two people directly changed from retail to wholesale. After hearing what the third uncle said, Jiang Yan was a little stunned. He really couldn't underestimate people of this era. Their brains were quite capable.

While shopping at Daqianmen, Jiang Yan also went to take a look at the store that He Yuzhu and the others had bought. Not to mention, the decoration was quite stylish and it looked good. But now it is He Yuzhu who is in charge of the overall situation here. As for Xu Damao and Liu Zi, they have already returned to Xiangjiang.

After walking out of He Yuzhu's shop, Jiang Yan unexpectedly passed by Banggan's noodle shop. Banggan's noodle shop was named "Old Yanjing Noodle Shop" and the main items they sold were old Yanjing's rotten meat noodles and so on. When making braised noodles, the sharp-eyed Bangjian at the gate became quite enthusiastic when he saw Jiang Yan. He had to drag Jiang Yan to eat a bowl of noodles. However, Jiang Yan had no choice but to go in. Don't tell me, this rotten meat The noodles are really good, not bad compared to previous restaurants. No wonder the business is so good.

Looking at Banggeng working in the noodle shop, Jiang Yan felt that this was different after all. It was no longer the courtyard house in the TV series.

When I returned to my home, I opened the door and saw my daughter-in-law Jiang Sirui cleaning the house. There were eight or nine large wooden boxes piled in the living room.

"Honey, I'm back," Jiang Yan shouted as soon as he entered the door.

"I only came back at night before, why did I come back so early today?" Jiang Sirui said as he took Jiang Yan's briefcase and hung it on the shelf in the room. Then he took a towel and handed it to him to wipe his sweat. .

Jiang Yan took the hand towel handed over by his wife and wiped his sweat. He went directly to the grape vines in the yard and sat down on the lounge chair, feeling a bit of coolness.

"The last class today, I came back right after the lecture. I am exhausted, but I am still comfortable at home. No wonder people say that a gold nest or a silver nest is not as good as your own doghouse."

"Look, everything on your body smells dirty. Go take a shower. By the way, what's going on with these boxes?" He complained while pulling Jiang Yan up.

"Hey! I'm not doing Lao Cao such a big favor. Just accept the little things they gave me!" Seeing that no one was there, Jiang Yan smiled and pulled Jiang Sirui into his arms and gave him a kiss. .

"You, let the children see you in broad daylight, go and take a bath." Jiang Sirui in his arms slapped Jiang Yan angrily, and then urged Jiang Yan to take a bath.

"Yes!" Jiang Yan made a funny move, and then said: "Don't cook my food tonight, I just ate it."

"Okay, okay, hurry up and take a shower to get rid of the dirt." He said and pushed Jiang Yan. Jiang Yan smiled playfully and took the clothes prepared by his wife, then went to the bathroom built in his home and took a happy bath.

After taking a shower, I sat on the lounge chair under the grape vines, holding a book and reading. From time to time, I would take a sip of the tea prepared by my wife, and my life was so comfortable.
