My village can't be like this

Chapter 572 Purple is very charming
The next day was the day when Huang Ming's fishing gear shop opened. After Zhang An got up, he went over to take a look.

At the intersection of their house, a wooden sign was placed with the words "Da Ming Fishing Tackle Store, opening bonus, 20% off today" written on it.

This kind of routine was very common in later generations, but it is rare now. It is probably that Da Mingzi saw it somewhere and then learned to use it.

Zhang An did not go directly to Damingzi's house, but first went to Zhang Xinmin's canteen.

"Brother Xinmin, do you still have the cannon? Give me a 500-gun blast."

Although there are still fireworks in Zhang An's house, setting off fireworks in broad daylight has no effect. It is better to just set up a cannon, and the sound can be heard in the lotus pond.

"There are some, they are all for that kid Huang Ming to get a good start, right? You wait for me to get them for you."

Seeing business coming to his door, Zhang Xinmin was all smiles. Needless to say, he already knew what Zhang An was buying cannons for, because it was no secret that Huang Ming opened a shop in the village. Who was the relationship between Zhang An and Huang Ming in the village? Don't know yet.

For ordinary people, a five-hundred-shot cannon is already too big, and most people will choose a two-hundred-shot cannon.

Because the earthen cannons are not small, each one is bigger than Zhang An's thumb, and they are fired very slowly. They will explode when they fall one by one. One with 500 rings must be fired for at least ten minutes. Of course, this kind of firecrackers are much more expensive, so he can earn more.

Zhang An originally wanted the sound to be louder, but the two hundred ringing time was too short, and the one thousand ringing time was too long, and Zhang Xinmin had no stock here, so the five hundred ringing ring was just right.

When Zhang Xinmin took the cannon out from the inside, he was punched three times in the middle and lower part by the zip ties. The round plate was about the size of a small sieve.

Zhang An paid for the firecracker and went straight to Huang Ming's house.

Although the Huang Ming family's new house has been built, their family has not moved in yet, so the door has not been opened.

However, his shop was a large open room specially expanded with a separate door, so it had no impact.

When building the wall at first, Huang Ming was thinking of leaving a large display window just like Zhang Xinmin's canteen.

But then I thought about it, that was still too childish. The people buying fishing gear were all adults. It was not like a child buying snacks, just shouting what you want to buy in front of the window, and letting people go inside to pick.

So he simply gritted his teeth and left the front wall alone, leaving a French door so that the inside would be more open.

However, he did not buy a rolling shutter door to install the door of his shop. That thing was too expensive. He directly found Lin Carpenter to make a large row of detachable wooden doors and used materials from his own house. In this way, It doesn't cost much.

When Zhang An arrived at the door of Huang Ming's house, a foot-long red cloth had been hung on the door of the shop.

Doing this is similar to the ribbon-cutting of some big shops in the city, which means getting rich and prosperous, but you don't need to touch it if you hang it up.

This usually only happens in big happy events such as marriages and moving houses, and not everyone can do it, no matter how good the relationship is, usually it is at the home of the host's uncle or aunt.

This red must have been hung by Huang Ming's uncle's family, because Mr. Huang did not have a daughter.

"Brother An is here. It's not time yet. Let's go and sit for a while."

Huang Ming saw Zhang An coming with a cannon in his arms and hurried over to welcome him in.

"What time is it set? I'm not too late. Don't let me miss the firecrackers."

Zhang An walked inside and took a look and found that there were quite a few people in the shop, but they were all relatives of Huang Ming's family and people he knew well in the village.

"No, no, no, Grandpa Dao saw that it's 4:00 a.m., and it's not until eight o'clock. There's still half an hour left."

After Zhang An came over, Huang Ming had no plans to go anywhere else. His parents naturally left the seven aunts and eight aunts in his family to greet him.

"What you did here is pretty good. It looks like it has everything. It's quite complete."

After walking around the shop, Zhang An found that Huang Ming had prepared quite a lot of things, from fishing rods to fishing rigs to bait.

However, the number of fishing rods is not very large. Fishing rig accessories and baits such as fishing lines, fishhooks, etc. account for the majority. After all, these are cheap and it does not cost much to distribute the goods.

As for the pole, anyone who comes to fish will bring it themselves. Only when the pole explodes will people consider coming to take a look.

Of course, he doesn't just open a fishing gear shop here. In fact, he also sells a lot of snacks and department stores, including tobacco and alcohol.

After all, their new house is right at the entrance of the village. It would be a waste not to build a small shop in such a prime location.

"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay."

Huang Ming became a little shy and scratched his head after being praised by Zhang An.

In fact, he really put 120% of his effort into building this fishing gear shop.

From building a new house to now preparing to sell goods, he has invested all his own funds.

Therefore, he and Li Xiaoying should devote all their energy to this shop in the future.

"By the way, I think the wooden sign you put up at the intersection is quite good, but there should be another one in front, so that more people will know about it."

Zhang An thought of the wooden sign placed at the intersection of Huang Ming's yard and gave him some advice.

Because many fishermen don't enter the village when they come over. They turn directly to the river after crossing the bridge. Only a few people go into the village to buy a pack of cigarettes or something.

It wasn't until noon, when it was time to eat, that I would take the time to come to the village for a meal.

Some people even didn't even come to the village for lunch, but directly ordered meals to be delivered there.

Therefore, in Zhang An's opinion, placing another signboard at the bridge head will definitely have a better effect.

"Don't worry, Brother An. I made three or four wooden signs like this yesterday. They are not only placed in front of my house, but also at both ends of the bridge and at the entrance of the stone pass."

Huang Ming was full of confidence in this. After his previous inquiries, he found that there was no fishing gear shop in the nearby area. Although the fish collection shops in Hongyan Town also sold some fishing gear, there were too few types for people to choose from. It was really Speaking of which, his place is the only serious fishing gear shop in Hongyan Town.

Although this section of the river in Changqing Village has the most fishermen, there are also people going to other places.

So this time he not only put up billboards in the village, but even at the stone pass.

The purpose is not just for the group of people who come to the village to know, but even for the fishing guys who go to other places, they will have an impression after seeing it.

"Okay, okay, now I believe you can definitely start this shop." Seeing that Huang Ming had even thought of this, Zhang An gave him a thumbs up. He said before that this guy has a business mind, and he was absolutely right. .

Soon it was eight o'clock in the morning, and Huang Ming hurried to the yard to light the firecrackers placed there.

Not long after, the crackling and banging of firecrackers exploded in the village. The movement was quite loud. This was why Zhang An didn't bring little Siqi over.

But even though there was so much movement, only a few people came here and there.

Huang Ming's mother was standing at the door with a worried look on her face.

"Hey Daming, why are there only so many people here to see it?"

There are really many fishermen along the Changqing River, sometimes more than three figures, but with only a few scattered people here, she is worried that Huang Ming will lose the money he invested.

"Mom, just be at ease. It's normal for no one to come here right now, because when people come, they have to grab fishing spots. When it's time to eat at noon, there will definitely be more people. You Go home and cook quickly, we have to eat early today, otherwise we won’t have time at noon.”

Huang Ming was very worried at the moment, and there was no trace of worry on his face.

Sure enough, when it was time to eat at noon, many people came over and went directly to Huang Ming's fishing gear shop without being busy eating.

Basically everyone bought something when they came out, and business was good.

When Zhang An was walking on the road, he could basically hear people passing by talking about Daming Fishing Tackle Store.

Many people feel that now that a fishing gear shop has opened in the village, they will no longer have to hold back and buy whatever they need in the future.

When Zhang An returned home, he found that his precious son was holding an extremely fat sparrow in his hands.

"No, I haven't been home for a while. Where did you get this?"

Zhang An was really dumbfounded, because at this time, little Siqi was carrying a little squirrel ball on his shoulder, holding a fat sparrow in his hand, followed by several big dogs, and he looked like a playboy.

"Well, where is the Lord of Misfortune? He is very arrogant in this family. No one dares to provoke him. He snatched it from other people's mouths."

Su Ying happened to come out of the house. When she heard Zhang An asked, she pointed to the trembling and innocent Mimi in the corner of the yard and said.

"You've been doing this for a long time. You are snatching food from the cat's mouth. You have robbed someone else's lunch. Do you want to give them some compensation?"

Zhang An initially thought that the tough guy in the village had caught it and brought it to little Siqi to play with. He never expected that the little guy snatched it from under Mimi's mouth.

But this is normal. According to his son's position as the family emperor in this family, even the most aloof and arrogant flower head has to shy away from him, let alone Mimi, who usually doesn't even have any impression points.

There are many animals in Zhang An's family, but the only ones who can catch birds are Huatou, Hui Qiu, their family members, and Mimi. Hua Tou and his family basically have to catch birds, but Hui Qiu and his family do it at night, not during the day.

But to say that the only one who can catch birds during the day and night is Mimi, a scumbag cat who often never returns home.

This guy is quite capable. In addition to mice, many birds and sparrows basically feed on it. Even during the day, it can huddle in the tree. As long as any bird dares to land on the tree, it will most likely leave. Can't fall off.

But the sparrow in Xiao Siqi’s hand was really well deserved to be caught by Mimi, because it was so fat that it had eaten so many crops in the field. Today, Mimi was the one who got rid of it for the village. One tyrant.

But this great hero was huddled in the corner and motionless at the moment. Maybe he had just been bullied by his little master, and now he felt aggrieved.

Compared with it, as a bully, Xiao Siqi is currently playing with himself regardless of what his father is saying.

If Wang Fang saw this, she would have to nag for a long time, because the older generation did not want to see children playing with birds. They said that children's hands would shake when they pick up a pen to write after playing with birds, so they would not allow it.

But Zhang An didn't care about this. He just let his son play happily if he liked it.

He knew very well whether his hands would shake after playing with birds. After all, he had caught countless birds when he was a child.

And sparrows are not a good thing. Even if little Siqi can't play with them, he doesn't think it's a big deal. If it's a swallow or other beneficial bird, he won't let the little guy play with it.

"Mimi, come here."

It wasn't until Zhang An opened his mouth to call it that the little thing came out from the corner of the wall.

Then Zhang An took it to the fish pond and caught two small fish for him. One was regarded as a reward for catching sparrows, and the other was regarded as compensation for being bullied by Xiao Siqi.

After Mimi finished eating the two fish given by Zhang An, she swept away the gloom and quickly jumped outside to find her female cats.

"By the way, wife, where did the fat man and his wife go?"

After walking around the house, Zhang An found that he didn't see the fat man or his wife.

"They went to play by the river and said they didn't need us to accompany them."

The fat man was also familiar with the village, so Su Ying simply didn't go with him and stayed at home to look after her son.

"Hey Zhang An, do you think the wall in our courtyard is a little bare? How about planting something on the wall to make it look better?"

Then Su Ying pointed to the bare courtyard wall of her home and told Zhang An that the courtyard wall at home was originally made of stone and had not been applied with sand. After looking at it for a long time, it seemed a bit monotonous.

"Sure, it would be nice to plant a circle of flowers. You can see what flowers you like and I'll go find some and bring them back."

Zhang An is not a flower lover, so he doesn't care much about this aspect, but since his wife has spoken, this must be arranged.

"What do you think of the purple wisteria? Let's decorate these two courtyard walls of our house into the purple wisteria waterfall in the book. It will definitely be very beautiful."

When Su Ying thought of this aspect, the text "Wisteria Waterfall" in the book immediately appeared in Su Ying's mind. She saw a brilliant lavender, like a waterfall, hanging down from the sky, with neither its origin nor its origin visible. Ultimately, what a beautiful scene.

If there was such a deep and shallow purple waterfall at home, it would be great, Su Ying thought.

"If you think it looks good, then let's plant it. Purple happens to be very attractive. In a few days, I will go to the flower and bird market in the city to see if there are any. If there are, I will buy some directly. If not, I will look at others. ”

Zhang An had never seen the scene of purple wisteria blooming with his own eyes, so he couldn't imagine what it would look like.

But purple, it must be excellent. After all, my sister said that purple is very charming.
