Chapter 447: Will the store be closed?
It's another sunny day! Zhang Tong looked at the sunny weather and felt much better. Although the date with Jiang Hua was not so successful, Jiang Hua was pulled away to work halfway through the date with himself. But I and she have taken a firm step, right?
In fact, this step is the most difficult to take, but as long as you step out, then the other party does not refuse. Then the rest is pretty much the water grinding. As long as you grind slowly, you can grind Jiang Hua to your hands.
Zhang Tong thought so, it didn't open yesterday, and it will still be open today. I still have to rely on opening a restaurant to support my family, although I learned from Li Tianfeng that Jiang Hua's family is actually very rich, as long as I soak in Jiang Hua, I can eat soft rice for a lifetime. But he's still a man with backbone. If you want to simply eat soft rice, then Gao Xiaomin's soft rice is a little more delicious.
But Gao Xiaomin's matter is really troublesome, I thought she had lost her memory, but I didn't expect her to still have a memory. And because I was poured too much medicine by myself, I became a shaker, or a foreign word [Stockholm syndrome].
It's really troublesome, it's really troublesome for her to pester herself. I haven't done anything to her, it will be very troublesome if she keeps pestering herself, and she still wants to live a simple life. But she remembered what she had done, and she had better not tell it. In fact, Gao Xiaomin is a trouble, but no matter what, Gao Xiaomin was also his comrade-in-arms (test subject) in the past!
Zhang Tong thought of Gao Xiaomin's question, and felt a little pain in his temples. How to solve her problem is a problem, and she also has a pro-plum sweetheart, who can be said to be an ex-boyfriend Li Lianlong. This kid is still good, born in Huaihai and grew up in the Northeast, and I don't know whether he is from Huaihai or Northeast.
This guy is infatuated with Gao Xiaomin, as a superstar, there should be many people who like Li Lianlong. This is really a bad debt, fortunately, Gao Xiaomin seems to have returned to the north because of something in the family recently, and he is not in Huaihai, otherwise there will be a lot of trouble.
Zhang Tong patted his head and felt that he actually had a lot of troubles, but there was no way to toss because people always had to toss in this world.
But no matter what worries you have, you still have to do the work you have to do, and you still have to buy some ingredients today.
Zhang Tong rode his small electric donkey to the vegetable market he frequented, of course, it couldn't be the railway market, because although the railway market was very close to his shop and the railway vegetable market was very clean, the price of vegetables was too high. Therefore, Zhang Tong usually goes to the vegetable market by the Suzhou Creek in the direction of East China Normal University. It's not very accurate to say that it is a vegetable market, because this should actually be a mobile house built along the Suzhou Creek.
Because there is no vegetable market in the surrounding area, residents living nearby need to travel far away to buy vegetables, so the local neighborhood committee also turns a blind eye to this. Otherwise, the vegetable market will be demolished, and the opinions of the residents will be great. As long as there is no occupation of the road and the operation blocks the intersection of the residence, it is fine.
"Well, it won't be around for long, though. At the stall where Zhang Tong often went to buy meat, the lean stall owner said helplessly: "Maybe we won't come to Huaihai after the New Year this year." ”
"What?" Zhang Tong had just finished buying twenty catties of pork belly.
"What else can I do, Huaihai wants to drive people. For the sake of the city's appearance and environment, we outsiders must be driven away. The owner of the pork stall was a little angry but helpless when he said this: "This place is going to be demolished, and at most this vegetable market will not be there after the year." ”
The nearest vegetable market can be found in Xingshan Market, which is almost three or four kilometers away from here, and the price is at least 25 percent more expensive than here. ”
"Not really, because the rent and management fees at Xingshan Vegetable Market are much more expensive than ours. A small stall costs several thousand rents a month, and you have to pay a sanitation fee and a management fee, and you have to pay a fixed land tax of 300 yuan every month. How can they make money if they don't buy more expensive food? We have cheap stall fees, cheaper water, electricity and sanitation management fees, and we don't pay land tax. So the surrounding residents are here to buy groceries. I heard the news that after the demolition of this place, a large vegetable market will be built, but after the construction is completed, the price of vegetables will definitely rise. As he spoke, the pork stall owner cut another piece of meat and gave it to the old aunt who was picking the meat.
The old aunt was a little uncomfortable when she heard what the boss said: "The price of vegetables is going to rise again?"
"If we all move to the big vegetable market, the management fee will go up, and the price of vegetables will definitely go up, at least 20 percent." "The butcher stall owner spreads his hands.
The old aunt shook her head: "Now the old man and I will have to pay 156 a month for eating, buying vegetables and eating some fruits a month, and if it goes up by 20 percent, then don't spend 2,000 a month." I still have to see a doctor and take medicine, where is this retirement salary enough? ”
Zhang Tong asked the owner of the butcher stall: "Aren't you moving to a new vegetable market?" Because the pork in this house is very good, Zhang Tong has always come here to buy vegetables, and if he changes the meat stall again, he will have to find it again.
"No, the rent is too expensive. If you can't make money, you have to pay rent. Every day at 2 o'clock in the middle of the night, I have to ride an electric tricycle to the pig killing farm to guard, just to be able to pick the first batch of good pork. If you can't sell the meat in one day, the price of refrigeration will go down the next day, and you can only guarantee that you will not lose money. If you make too little money, you might as well go to work. The same is true for those who sell vegetables, those who make money by selling vegetables also make money, and those who don't make money can lose money until their husbands and wives quarrel and divorce. It's too tiring to do this kind of small business, I used to open skewers on the road from China Normal University. Later, the city was renovated, and all the shops next to China Normal University were closed and sealed. Then I went to Caoyang No. 7 Middle School to sell fried chicken, and then the cityscape was renovated and our stores were closed again. ”
"I'm selling pork now, and I guess I'm going to have to be banned. Huaihai I can't stay anymore and eliminate the low-end population. I'm the one who wants to be eliminated in this city, so I'd better go back to my hometown and go to the fried skewer business. Speaking of this, the owner of the butcher stall was a little unwilling, but there was no way: "Who told me that I am not the high-end population of this city." ”
Zhang Tong was also helpless about this, and he couldn't help the pork stall owner, because it was a decision made by the city government. You can't say it's wrong, but you can't say it's all right. As an urban development plan, it is natural to have a high-end atmosphere and a high grade, especially in an international metropolis like Huaihai.
But how can the more than 30 million people living in this city be all elites? And even the elite can't do without the fireworks in the world. These people working at the bottom are actually an important part of keeping the megacity of Huaihai running every day. If they were all gone, then Huaihai would also become cold.
The city government wants to make Huaihai a big city like New York, but is this really good? Zhang Tong remembered that when he was in elementary school, his homeroom teacher's Chinese teacher had told such a story: In American cities (in fact, New York), there are no trees on both sides of the road, and where there are trees on both sides of the road like China, like a city? This view was quite a lot in Zhang Tong's time, and even many cities really cut down the green plants on both sides of the road and made the road bare.
Nowadays, this can be regarded as a kind of admiration for the West to the extreme, and many people in the management department really think so, thinking that everything is good in the West. However, Zhang Tong felt that the road without trees would dare to walk out in the summer!
Zhang Tong shook his head and rode back to the store on a small battery, and when he first arrived at the store, he saw a group of neighbors surrounding a few people in uniform shouting: "Why do you say that our store is not allowed to open if it is not standardized? You explain it clearly to me, and if you don't make it clear, you are not allowed to leave! My family has relied on me to open a store to make money to make a living, who of you dares to say that I am not allowed to do business here today, I am not finished with you!"
