my shared lover

Chapter 008: Shoot When You Should

When couples go shopping, they always walk back and forth along the street, just for shopping.

Zhang Xixi doesn't have a boyfriend, so sometimes he thinks about what it's like to be on the road with a handsome guy?Now, she has realized that there is no sweetness, just a word, tired!She didn't understand. Isn't shopping just reserved for women?How come Jia Simiao is here, he can go shopping better than women.

Shen Junao is busy with work, Tang Ziyu likes to go shopping, so she insists on pulling Zhang Xixi.Every time, Zhang Xixi shouted tired, and it was even more tiring to go shopping with Jia Simiao.

It was still hot, the sun was very poisonous, and there was not even a little wind.

Zhang Xixi's face was flushed, sweat dripped down her forehead, even her T-shirt was stuck to her back, and the trace of her chest strap was so clear.She was wearing a small flower umbrella and flat sandals on her feet. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore, and didn't go any further. She said loudly, "Jia Simiao, what do you mean? Didn't you say that you bought goods? You can't wait for such a stroll." Thirsty and tired, it's so torturous."

Jia Simiao asked: "Xixi, what do you think you feel now?"

Zhang Xixi stared at him and said angrily: "I really want to beat you up, break your teeth, and let you swallow them all in your stomach."

Jia Simiao laughed and said, "I can imagine that, but before beating me up, don't you want to eat some cold drink, watermelon, papaya or ice cream?"

"Yes I do."

"I invite you to eat."

There is a cold drink shop in front, after drinking a glass of cold drink and eating two slices of iced watermelon, Zhang Xixi's anger disappeared, and he said: "Forget that you will come, you know how to please me."

Jia Simiao smiled lightly and said, "To do business, one must understand business opportunities. Now, do you understand what I mean by taking you out shopping?"

Zhang Xixi said: "What do you mean? Oh, you... You don't want me to sell iced watermelons and cold drinks with you, do you?"

Jia Simiao laughed and said, "Why, you still look down on selling iced watermelons and cold drinks?"

Zhang Xixi said: "Such a piece of watermelon costs only two yuan. We are working hard, how much can we sell for?"

"Selling watermelon is only one aspect. We mainly sell cold drinks. When we save some money, we will set up a shop in front of Yanjing Medical University. What do you think?"

"Really?"

Zhang Xixi's eyeballs were all bright, and she murmured: "But, we rely on selling iced watermelons, cold drinks and so on, when can we save money to buy a storefront?"

Jia Simiao said: "You don't need to buy it. It's the same if we rent one first. According to my calculations, God will take care of us. In a week or so, we should be able to get the money for renting the storefront. It's not a problem."

Zhang Xixi grinned and shouted, "For a few weeks, are you blowing your breath, or are you kidding me?"

Jia Simiao smiled lightly, "You don't believe it?"

Zhang Xixi said: "Of course I don't believe it. A piece of watermelon only costs 2 yuan, and a whole watermelon can be cut into 8 yuan, which means it sells for 16 yuan. The cost price of this watermelon is 10 yuan. That is to say , we only earn 1 yuan selling 6 watermelon. You say, in a week or so, if we sell it to death, how much can we sell?"

Jia Simiao said: "I have read the newspapers a long time ago. There are a large number of melon farmers in the western suburbs. Every day, trucks go to the western suburbs to buy watermelons, and then distribute them to the large fruit wholesale markets in the city. What we saw along the street These fruit shops get their goods from the large fruit wholesale market. That is to say, when it is their turn, this watermelon has already been sold three times. Tell me, how can the price not increase?"

Zhang Xixi excitedly said: "Oh, I see. You mean that we purchase directly from melon farmers. In this way, we will be first-hand dealers, and the price will definitely be much lower. Do you know how much a catty of melon farmers wholesale? ?”

Jia Simiao said, "Fifty cents."

"Ah? Only...only fifty cents?" Zhang Xixi immediately lowered her head, scratched her fingers, and shouted, "Isn't this too dark? We buy watermelons from the fruit shop for one yuan a catty."

"The principle of making money in business is to get the lowest price possible, and then sell it at the highest price..."

"Then why are you dawdling? Should we buy second-hand refrigerators and freezers, or go to the western suburbs to have a look?"

"We don't have that much capital on hand, so we will go to the western suburbs to buy watermelons first."

When it comes to money, Zhang Xixi also wilts like an eggplant beaten by frost.When she came out of the house, she didn't have much money in her pocket. She just wanted to support herself and show her family that she could do it.Neither of them was willing to take a taxi, so they took the bus directly to the western suburbs.Car, ride directly to the finish line.

After leaving the city, there are quite a lot of watermelon fields on both sides of the road, and many melon farmers have built awnings on the side of the road, directly stacking watermelons on the side of the road.When two people asked about the price, the retail price was 8 cents, and the wholesale price was slightly lower, but it must be in large quantities.

The two of them didn't say a word, they continued to walk forward and inquired.

These melon growers seem to have negotiated in advance, and the price is the same. Zhang Xixi whispered: "Jia Simiao, you said, if it's fifty cents, we can deduct the shipping fee, isn't it worthwhile?"

Jia Simiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's go."

At this time, suddenly there was a tearing scream from the side: "Help, help, my father has fainted."

Most of these melon farmers came from other places together, rented land, and planted watermelons.Life is not easy, so I live directly in the melon shed.Hearing the sound, they all ran over.Jia Simiao greeted Zhang Xixi, and followed him across the ditch to the melon patch.

The one who fainted was an old man in his sixties. He fell on the melon field, his face was pale, his limbs were cold, and his body convulsed.This situation shocked Zhang Xixi, and the melon farmers around were all anxious and helpless.

Jia Simiao said loudly: "Let me take a look, I am a doctor."

A thin and small young man next to him seemed to see a savior, tears came down, and he cried, "Doctor, help my father, what's wrong with him."

Without checking the pulse, Jia Simiao directly took out two silver needles from the backpack he was carrying, and pierced the old man's Qihai and Baihui points at the same time. Like pounding garlic, the needle tip kept going in and out of the old man's acupuncture points.

Including Zhang Xixi, these people were dumbfounded. Is this treating a disease?After dozens of seconds, the old man suddenly groaned and finally woke up.

ah?God, just a few pricks like this, people wake up?

While these people were astonished, their mouths opened even wider. Jia Simiao actually bent down and picked up the old man, ran directly to the fish pond next to the melon, and jumped into it together.The old man just left his head outside and his body was submerged in the water.Is there something like this that heals people?Zhang Xixi squatted on the bank, winking at Jia Simiao again and again, don't kill him like this.

Those melon farmers gathered around the pool, very nervous.

The old man's son pointed at Jia Simiao and said excitedly, "You...what are you doing? My dad will be safe, right?"

Jia Simiao smiled and said, "It's all right, don't worry."

"Is it okay? Let me tell you, if you break my father, I will fight you hard. "

"Ergou, what are you talking about? I'm in good spirits now, and I'm fine." The old man actually spoke.

Jia Simiao carried the old man up from the fish pond, put him in the shade of the melon shed, and didn't let the old man change out of his soaked clothes.Let the people around spread out and keep ventilated.Strange to say, the old man looks as usual and has completely recovered.

Zhang Xixi said in surprise: "Jia Simiao, what's the matter with the old man?"

Jia Simiao smiled and said, "Severe heatstroke, it's sunstroke."

Sunstroke, just like its name, people are directly exposed to the scorching sun, the strong sunlight penetrates the head skin and skull, causing damage to brain cells, which in turn causes congestion and edema of brain tissue.Since the head is mainly injured, the initial discomfort is severe headache, nausea and vomiting, irritability, and then coma and convulsions.If not treated in time, it is likely to be life-threatening.

The old man's son knelt down in front of Jia Simiao, knocked his head a few times, and said gratefully: "Benefactor, you are my great benefactor, Li Ergou..."

Jia Simiao quickly helped him up, and said with a faint smile, "I didn't do anything, it's just a matter of raising my hands."

Li Ergou was very excited and insisted on keeping Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi here for dinner.Old Li also followed suit, with a very sincere attitude.This is a life-saving grace, it is really unreasonable not to invite a meal.Jia Simiao glanced at Zhang Xixi, Zhang Xixi was full of joy, but he didn't understand that it's hard to turn down the kindness, so let's eat as soon as we eat.

Li Ergou grinned, and hurried to buy meat, while Jia Simiao, Zhang Xixi, Lao Litou and others were chatting under the melon shed.Only then did I know that they all came out of a valley called Lijiaao.There, it is really too poor. Some young people come out to do odd jobs outside. They rent land to grow watermelons, which is not bad.

Old Li didn't quite understand why Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi came to such a place in such hot weather.

Jia Simiao laughed twice, and Zhang Xixi couldn't wait to say: "We want to buy some watermelons and go back to do some small business."

Tsk tsk, look at the people in the city, who said they look down on country people?This young couple is very simple.

Old Li smiled and said, "We have nothing else here, but watermelons. You tell me how much you want, and I'll give it to you."

Zhang Xixi said: "How can this work? We heard that you deliver to the fruit wholesale market for fifty cents a catty. You... can you sell it to us for fifty cents a catty? My boyfriend and I are now Money is tight."

Jia Simiao really couldn't laugh or cry, this girl is a good material for business, she won't even blink her eyes when she tells a lie.I just met yesterday, and today it is a relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend, which is a little too fast.

Old Li insisted on giving it away, but of course Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi couldn't ask for it for nothing.When Li Ergou came back, he was very happy, isn't it simple?Both parties made a compromise, and it was only [-] cents a catty.

Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi glanced at each other, overjoyed.

Li Ergou asked: "How much catty do you want? When I pick melons tomorrow morning, I have a plan in mind."

How does Zhang Xixi know how much he can ask for? Jia Simiao said in a deep voice: "This is also the first time we do small business, so we don't know how much we want. How about you keep five hundred catties for me? ?”

A watermelon weighs about ten catties, five hundred catties means more than 50 watermelons, and 200 yuan is what Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi can afford at present.

Li Ergou smiled and said, "Okay. I go to the Xicheng District Fruit Wholesale Market at four o'clock every morning. Where are you? I'll send it to your home."
