Chapter 14 Selling Cigarettes is a Dangerous Business
"Just kidding, just say it casually, don't take it seriously. ”
Retracting his gaze from the counter, Chen Yu said solemnly: "I don't need monetary compensation, item compensation, these material things." There's only one thing I can ask you to do me. ”
"What's the matter. ”
"Go to school. ”
“......”
Maybe it's the simple words that are more powerful.
When the female owner of the cigarette shop heard the word "going to school", she was inexplicably touched.
She took a puff of cigarette, exhaled it slowly, looked through the clouds, and looked at Chen Yu deeply: "You just want to go to school?"
"I just want to take the college entrance examination. ”
“...... You were expelled from No. 2 Middle School, and I don't have the ability to send you back to No. 2 Middle School. The female boss leaned back in her chair: "I'm just a cigarette seller, and I can't reach the level of a high school principal." ”
"Other high schools are also OK, as long as you can take the college entrance examination. ”
"Your grades are good?"
"Enough to go to college. ”
"Yes. The landlady was noncommittal.
She didn't believe that a student with the potential to go to college would be expelled for smoking.
"Hmmm......"
After thinking for a long time, the female boss snuffed out the cigarette: "If you ask for something else, the old lady won't give you a dime." But if you go to school...... I can try, but success is not guaranteed. ”
Steady!
Steady!
Chen Yu was suddenly ecstatic in his heart, and nodded calmly on his face: "Then thank you, a good person has a safe life." ”
With that, he turned around and was about to leave the cigarette shop, ready to find a deserted alley to have a good laugh for a while.
The ups and downs of life are so exciting......
"Wait. The female boss suddenly said: "Aren't you homeless?
Chen Yu turned around: "Find a bridge to deal with for a few nights." ”
"Stay here. ”
Chen Yu: "?"
"Just stay in the hotel. Standing up, the female boss walked towards Chen Yu: "The space-time gate of Qingcheng No. 341B has just opened. A lot of out-of-towners came. It's not safe to sleep outside at night. ”
Chen Yu was shocked: "Still... And this good thing?"
"I can't live in vain, I need to work part-time and look after the store. The landlady pointed to the nearby counter: "You are responsible for the cost of each brand of cigarettes, the smoking form, the handling of goods, and the placement of goods." ”
"No problem!" Chen Yu agreed without hesitation.
If you don't hurry up with this unexpected joy, is it still human......
"When you find a good school, you can get out of here. Not a single salary. ”
"No problem...... Food?"
"Yes. ”
"No problem at all. Chen Yu made an OK gesture: "Then where do I sleep?"
"Upstairs in the living room, make your own floor. ”
Chen Yu: "Don't you have a bed? I'm used to sleeping in a bed, and I don't cough in bed." ”
The female boss had a strange face: "You're going to sleep in the bridge cave, do you have to choose a place to live?"
"Isn't that what we have right now? Chen Yu pointed to the ceiling: "How good the environment is, how good the decoration is, and it doesn't look good to sleep on the floor." ”
"How do you sleep in the dormitory with your homeroom teacher?"
"I slept in the bed, and he made it on the floor. ”
“...... You are such a filial child. ”
The female boss rolled her eyes and took Chen Yu to the second floor: "Then I'll find you an empty room and sleep there later." ”
"Sister, you are so beautiful, and your heart is also beautiful. Chen Yu slapped his ass perfunctorily: "Maybe the luckiest thing in my life is to steal your cigarettes." ”
The female boss was embarrassed and itchy: "Shut up." ”
Chen Yu: "Okay. ”
On the second floor, under the command of the female boss, Chen Yu emptied the sundries of an empty house.
I went to the utility room and found a folding bed and an old table. Even if it's furniture.
"Stay here, you mop the floor and wipe the windows in a while. ”
"Okay. Putting down the salute and backpack, Chen Yu said with a rare seriousness: "Thank you, sister." Actually, you're a good guy too. ”
"Didn't you call me Auntie?
"You're so young and beautiful, you have to be called sister. ”
"Then call me Sister Qi from now on. The female boss took out a key and handed it to Chen Yu: "The key to the door of the store is responsible for opening and closing the door in the morning and evening." ”
"Don't you stay here at night?"
"Of course live here. I slept next to the master bedroom. But with you part-time, I can get up later. Sister Qi's voice paused slightly, and she said half-threateningly: "There are all the things in the store, and there is also monitoring, so I advise you to keep your hands and feet clean." ”
"Look at what you're saying, you're really thinking I'm a thief. I never steal. ”
"I hope you don't steal. Come downstairs with me, note the price of all kinds of cigarettes, and you'll go to work today. ”
"Okay. By the way, Sister Qi, what about my brother-in-law?
Sister Qi gently pulled her hair: "Your brother-in-law is dead." ”
"I'm sorry. Chen Yu sneered: "Festival mourning." ”
Sister Qi: "You should say congratulations." ”
Chen Yu: "......"
......
Chen Yu has a good memory.
The female boss, Sister Qi, only introduced it twice, and he roughly knew the pricing of all cigarettes.
Hongta Mountain – 1680
Yunyan - 1700
Liqun – 1750
Red panda - 5400
Jade Seal - 5800
Zhonghua – 9750
In addition, there are also the Yellow Crane Tower, Hongmei, Hade Gate, Daqianmen, Harbin, Furong Wang, Huangguoshu, Dragon and Phoenix Chengxiang that Chen Yu is familiar with, and so on......
Without exception, the price of each brand of cigarettes is incredibly expensive.
"Why are cigarettes so expensive?" Chen Yu asked.
"Taxes are high. ”
"How high is the tax?"
Sister Qi took out a box of exquisitely packaged Chinese cigarettes and said, "For example, this pack, the cost of tobacco is more than three cents, and the cost of making it is no more than five yuan." The rest is taxes. ”
Chen Yu: "Hao guy. ”
"That's the kind of pricing that's the pricing, I love to smoke or not. Putting the Chinese cigarettes back in the cabinet, Sister Qi continued: "Selling cigarettes is no better than selling other goods. You don't have to rush to sell. Also, it's dangerous to sell this thing, so let's talk about the precautions for you. ”
You say. ”
"Each box of cigarettes is very expensive, you must not sell it wrong, and you must pay attention to the money. ”
"Understood. ”
"There will be frequent check-ins by government staff, don't talk to them too much. Our documents are all qualified, and they will leave after reading them. ”
"Understood. ”
"Cigarettes are a luxury, you can't try to smoke them. If you don't give money, let him go. The law stipulates that people who buy cigarettes cannot stay in cigarette shops for more than ten minutes. ”
"Understood. ”
"The most important thing to note is that among the smokers, there are many mercenaries and wandering warriors, and their quality is uneven, their strength is high and low, and their emotions are good and bad, so don't anger them. Don't swear during the service, keep smiling all the time, don't mess with yourself......"
"Squeak—"
Before he finished speaking, the door of the store was pushed open, and a middle-aged man with a stubble on his face walked in, holding a wad of banknotes: "Boss, buy cigarettes." Come and pack the big front ......"
", don't you see I'm busy?"
"Oh, I'll come later......"
After the customer retreated, Sister Qi turned her head and looked at Chen Yu: "In short, the attitude must be good." ”
Chen Yu: "Ming... Got it......"
