Chapter 47 Crazy Six
Life is always busy, not to mention that Xian Yaowen has many things to take care of.

There weren't many things that needed to be sorted out in the store, just a few shelves and an L-shaped counter, which were quickly completed.

Xian Yaowen took Xian Yaowu, Sister-in-law Gu and Sister-in-law Dong to various places to stock up on goods, ranging from needles and threads, oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar, to beer, rice wine, Wujia peel, Dutch water, as well as cigarettes and snacks. As long as the store can fit into it and the products match the consumption level of nearby residents, they are put on the counters and shelves one by one.

There is no need to hold any opening ceremony. Just set off a bunch of firecrackers at an auspicious time in the morning and it will be open for business.

I took Cheryl to find an office for Jinji Trading Company in Central and Sheung Wan, where many foreign banks were gathered, purchased office equipment, published recruitment information in newspapers, etc., all the trivial matters were another busy task.

After a little leisure time, it was time for the interview again.

The recruitment information he asked Zheng Yueying to post last time was to recruit a secretary, and the requirements were not too high.

"There is no limit to male or female, applicants must be fluent in English, have experience in the garment industry or have graduated from relevant institutions. Applicants with overseas study or life experience will be given priority. The starting salary is 350 yuan. Salaries for particularly outstanding candidates can be discussed on an interview basis."

Obviously, Xian Yaowen miscalculated. After waiting all morning, no one came for the interview. His idea of ​​picking up the slack was in vain.

Originally, he thought he would meet a rich young man/daughter who had just returned from studying abroad. He was dissatisfied with the family's arrangements for his work or marriage, so he ran away from home in anger, determined to make a living on his own, and he happened to see his face while reading the newspaper. Job Offers……

When no one came in the evening, he was basically sure that his destiny to enjoy the benefits had been deprived of him. There would no longer be ready-made benefits in the world waiting for him to pick up, nor would he get lucky by stepping on shit every day. Talents would not automatically jump. Come into his bowl.

Things did not go in the best direction, which made Xian Yaowen inexplicably a little irritated. Instead of having dinner with the others, he went to the store downstairs, paid cash for a bottle of beer, weighed some peanuts, and moved them out of the store. Get a stool and sit in a corner outside the store.

As he thought, the radio brought a lot of popularity to the store. From the day it opened, many people gathered in front of the store in the evening to listen to the radio. The twelve benches made were not enough to sit on. Stand or sit on the floor.

However, popularity has attracted people, and there are not as many thin-skinned people as he thought. The conversion rate of popularity into purchases is very low. There are very few people buying wine and snacks to go with alcohol, but a few more packs of cigarettes can be sold.

Xian Yaowen drank wine, his eyes wandering between several bowls.

The broadcast was quite attractive. Among the people gathered here to listen, several came with rice bowls in their hands. When the bowls were lowered, you could see several black strips lying on the rice. If nothing unexpected, they were pickled. vegetable.

Prices in Hong Kong at this time are a bit expensive, but not outrageous. Fine rice costs 4 cents per catty, pork costs 2.8 yuan per catty, and beef costs 2 yuan per catty. The price of vegetables ranges from two to three cents, with only cabbage sums being more expensive. 4 millimeters.

If you can take root in Sham Shui Po, you should basically have a fairly stable income. Even if you only earn 30 to 40 yuan a month, it is not difficult to save a little money every day to buy vegetables. You can only eat pickles, which shows that the family has strong labor force. There are pot-bellied men and half-grown men who eat me to death. Food expenses can only be tilted towards buying rice. Salty pickles are suitable for rice.

After seeing a few bowls of pickled vegetables, Xian Yaowen knew that the store's products needed to be adjusted. He went to the sauce garden to buy a few jars of unbrewed inferior soy sauce and sold them at a low price. The soy sauce soup was also considered half a dish, which could satisfy some potential needs. Due to customer demand, the store's sales should increase a bit.

Putting down the bowl, and then looking at the clothes of adults and children, a number of ideas that the store needs to improve came to mind.

Finally, let’s make a summary. Hide the ideas deep in your mind. Except for the soy sauce idea, let them eat ashes for the time being. It’s not the time for them to come out and be active yet.

After twisting a few peanuts and putting them into his mouth, Xian Yaowen frowned, wondering where to find a secretary. There were too many things to do, and it would be impossible without a capable secretary to help him.

"Tomorrow I'll go find Luo Yingshi and find out which family has talented girls waiting for marriage, and then go to the University of Hong Kong to find out what female college students are paying attention to and what they like now.

Alas, I can’t recruit anyone, so I have to sacrifice my appearance to trick someone back. Unfortunately, I have been keeping my body like a jade for three months, and I am making great strides in the direction of perfect merit. God, why do you like to make things difficult for people so much? You Win, I compromised, let me The fall is more violent! "

Singing a song "Little Boy" that spans time and space, Xian Yaowen uses his singing to wash away worries, coax the moon to sleep, and wake up the sun. In the morning, after breakfast, Xian Yaowen took Wang Xiamin, who was in a good mood, out.

They were going to the Tsang Fu Piano Shop on Morrison Hill Road in Wan Chai to buy the piano they had said they wanted to buy.

When she arrived at the door of the piano store, before she even entered, Wang Xiamin was attracted by the pleasant sound of the piano. After listening attentively for a while, her eyes could not wait to trace the source of the sound. For a moment, her eyes Locked onto a grand piano in the center of the piano store.

After listening for a while, she turned to Xian Yaowen and said, "Sir, the sound of the piano is so beautiful."

“Yes.” To play, as a beginner you only need an upright piano, which is small enough to fit at home.”

Xian Yaowen pointed to the right side of the piano store, "Well, those are the ones, let's go over and have a look."

The two entered the piano store and came to the display area of ​​upright pianos. Xian Yaowen put one hand on a piano and whispered to Wang Xiamin: "The best way to choose pianos is to communicate with them spiritually, without looking at them. You don’t need to listen, you just need to touch their bodies and press the keys. Whichever one makes you feel the most comfortable is the one that is most suitable for you.”

Wang Xiamin looked at the pianos with subtle differences in appearance and said anxiously: "Sir, their prices are different, right?"

"Don't worry about the price. Since they are displayed together, the price won't be too different. It doesn't matter. You can choose your favorite one with confidence."

How expensive can an upright piano be? The prices are all there. Xian Yaowen doesn't care about the price difference on the piano. What he cares about is whether he can find a piano teacher who is knowledgeable and cheap. You know, the lesson fee is the price. Big head.

It just depends on luck. If you can meet a down-and-out wealthy daughter who has learned piano, you can save the money for three or four pianos.

Letting Wang Xiamin communicate by himself, Xian Yaowen turned his eyes to the woman who was playing and commented on her, "She has a good face and a good figure. Her buttocks are shaped like a peach, her thighs are plump, and her calves are as slender as a bird." , Good legs. It’s a pity that the beauty is beautiful, but the skin is so thick, and the entry level is still intoxicated, so I dare to treat the piano store as the Golden Hall of Vienna."

Xian Yaowen is a person who loves music. It is difficult to find a close friend. It is rare to meet a close friend who can play the piano, so he should listen carefully to the other person's thighs.

Just as Beethoven was listening intently to the beautiful notes he played, and Abing was staring at his score in awe, Wang Xiamin returned to him and said, "Sir, I have chosen."

"Oh, which one?"

"That one." Wang Xiamin pointed to a piano and said.

"Go over and have a look."

When he came to the piano, Xian Yaowen took a look at the paint surface of the piano body. No flaws were found, so he opened the key cover, looked at each key carefully, and stroked it again with his fingers. He didn't feel any obvious unevenness. Then, he used his left hand to The index finger picked a key at random and tapped it quickly, timed it for one second, and then switched to the index finger of the right hand and tried again.

Depress the mute pedal and check whether the 88 black and white keys are uneven. Check all pedals. Open the upper and lower doors to check the strings, soundboard, and action...

After looking at the piano inside and out, he put his hands on the keys. After a moment of brewing his emotions, he poked the keys with ten fingers. The most tormenting key sequence of "Crazy Six" was between his fingers. Play.

"Crazy Six" is a bit difficult. When Xian Yaowen first learned piano, he mainly wanted to refine his temperament. When practicing, he mainly focused on lyrical music. He neither liked this kind of virtuosic music nor practiced it much. He couldn't play it well. No, but this piece of music is very suitable for testing the tone of the piano.

The playing woman who was originally intoxicated in the self-created canon world was pulled out by the noise made by Xian Yaowen. She frowned and stared at Xian Yaowen displeasedly.
