On the day of the opening, Wu Chengfeng and the others were ready before ten o'clock. At nearly twelve o'clock in the afternoon, some people came in one after another, these people were men and women, they were all friends of Zhao Xu, and friends of friends, and when they came, they sent more than a dozen flower baskets, which were placed in front of the store for a long time. After these people were seated, Wu Chengfeng began to grill skewers according to the plan formulated by Zhao Xu. In this way, the opening day passed with excitement. On the second day of opening, Zhao Xu's friends only came with a man and a woman, and the man's name was Zhuang Ritian. Listening to Zhao Xu, Zhuang Ritian originally named him Zhuang Hao by his grandfather. Zhuang Ritian's father didn't know how to read, so he took the name written by Zhuang Ritian's grandfather to the police station to register his account. I never thought that Zhuang Ritian's grandfather's handwriting was too sloppy, and the upper and lower structures of Haozi were too far away, and the comrades from the police station gave Zhuang Ritian. Later, Zhuang Ritian's father didn't bother to change his name, so he kept calling Zhuang Ritian. Zhuang Ritian is also from the Northeast, he and Zhao Xu are young, and after graduating from university, they stayed in Longgang City to work. After graduating from university, Zhao Xu was not satisfied with finding several jobs, so Zhuang Ritian invited Zhao Xu to come to Longgang City to open a store in partnership. Zhao Xu and Zhuang Ritian discussed it and decided to open a barbecue restaurant. The barbecue restaurant "Rising Sun Skewers" is taken from the names of Zhao Xu and Zhuang Ritian.

The woman who came with Zhuang Ritian was his girlfriend Zhu Xuemei, Zhu Xuemei is an authentic native of Longgang City, she and Zhuang Ritian are colleagues, and when Zhuang Ritian and Zhao Xu were looking for an address to open a store, Zhu Xuemei recommended this hot pot restaurant to them on the second floor. The hot pot restaurant was opened by Zhu Xuemei's godfather, and the rent was given to Zhuang Ritian and they had a lot of discounts.

Maybe it's because of the newly opened store, there is no business in the store for a day, and Wu Chengfeng has nothing to do in the back kitchen, so they use their mobile phones to play a game called "Rock City Fighting Landlords", which was recommended to them by Zhao Xu, saying that they can earn phone bills on their mobile phones. Wu Chengfeng played for a month before he earned thirty yuan in phone bills from it, which is a later story.

There was no one in the store for a few days, and occasionally there were a few orders, which were ordered by the customers of the hot pot restaurant downstairs. Zhao Xu and Zhuang Ritian saw that the business in the store was so bleak, they couldn't sit still anymore, sat together and discussed, and decided to go online to engage in group buying. Not to mention, in this way, the store has indeed improved, but it still can't make ends meet.

On this day, Zhao Xu went to load the goods, his mother Aunt Qin was watching the store in the store, and Wu Chengfeng and Sun Qiang were wearing sharp peppers in the back kitchen. Wu Chengfeng cut the peppers into sections, and Sun Qiang threaded the peppers into sections with two bamboo skewers. Wu Chengfeng and Sun Qiang were dressed unhurriedly, and Aunt Qin came over from the front hall. After Aunt Qin turned around in the back kitchen, she stood beside Wu Chengfeng and said, "Xiaofeng, I haven't been with you for a long time, but I can see that you are a far-sighted person. Let me ask you, why do you think our store is not doing well?"

When Wu Chengfeng heard Aunt Qin's words, his hand cutting the sharp pepper slowed down. Wu Chengfeng thought for a while and said, "I can't say it well, if I make a mistake, how embarrassing it is!"

"It's okay! just say it!" Aunt Qin said.

Wu Chengfeng saw Aunt Qin's earnest eyes, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "Then I can say ......?"

Wu Chengfeng cleared his throat and said: "Judging from the reactions of the guests in the past few days, most people still recognize the taste of our kebabs! As for why the business has not been able to do well, I think it should be related to the door of our store......

"At the door?" Aunt Qin was stunned for a moment and said, "What does it have to do with the door?"

"Well...... this," Wu Chengfeng explained confidently: "The gate is like a person's mouth, and our shop and the hot pot restaurant downstairs are like two esophagus." Now there are a number of meals eaten by one mouth, and if two esophagus come to grab it, there will definitely be a limit to what comes to us. ”

Aunt Qin was dumbfounded, she didn't expect Wu Chengfeng to make such a vivid analogy. After a long while, Aunt Qin said, "Xiao Feng, what you said is very reasonable! I have also secretly observed in the past few days, some customers came into the store with the intention of eating skewers, but they didn't know that there were two stores downstairs and downstairs. After sitting down, I realized that it was not a skewer, and I was embarrassed to leave, so I ate it. It seems that we are working hard to publicize and advertise for the downstairs!"

Wu Chengfeng nodded and said, "That's the truth!"

Aunt Qin was silent for a while, and said, "When you Brother Zhao comes back, I'll discuss with him what to do!"

Aunt Qin discussed it with Zhao Xu and Zhuang Ritian, and sure enough, they all agreed with Wu Cheng's idea. Zhao Xu found the owner of the hot pot restaurant downstairs and discussed with him to open a door next to the hot pot restaurant. The hot pot restaurant owner thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement. In this way, Zhao Xu recruited construction workers and let them spend five days without delaying the opening of the store, and finally the side door could leave. After the "Rising Sun Skewers" had its own door, the business was really much better than before, although I dare not say that it made a lot of money, but at least it was enough to pay the rent and the wages of Wu Chengfeng and other employees. And Wu Chengfeng has now found his own dormitory, which is in the basement of the same community as the skewer bar, and the rent is not expensive, 450 yuan a month.

On this morning, there were no customers in the store, and after Wu Chengfeng finished wearing the mutton skewers, he sat at the staircase and played with his mobile phone. Suddenly, Wu Chengfeng's mobile phone WeChat rang, he opened WeChat and saw that it was sent by Li Qian, with only two words: "Are you there?"

Li Qian is Wu Chengfeng's colleague at "Night Fragrance Skewers", a girl who is just nineteen years old this year. At the time of "Night Incense Skewers", Wu Chengfeng knew that Li Qian had an object, who worked as a temporary worker in a nearby chengguan brigade, Li Qian's object was about the same age as Wu Chengfeng, and she was swarthy.

Since the transfer of "Night Fragrance Skewers", Wu Chengfeng and other employees have gone their separate ways, and there is not much contact. Now Li Qian took the initiative to contact Wu Chengfeng, which made him a little puzzled, but he still replied: "It's here!"

After a while, Li Qian sent another message: "What are you doing?"

This time, Wu Chengfeng replied quickly: "I work in a string bar!"

"I'm in Tianjin, and now I want to go back to Longgang City to play, will you entertain me?"

When Wu Chengfeng saw Li Qian's words, he didn't know if Li Qian was joking or serious. So, Wu Chengfeng also replied half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Eat and live!"

"Don't lie to me!

Wu Chengfeng couldn't figure out Li Qian's true intentions, but he still sent the address of the dormitory. Wu Chengfeng and Li Qian chatted, he didn't tell Sun Qiang. By the next morning, Wu Chengfeng was still sleeping when he was woken up by the sound of a WeChat video.

"Who's posting a video so early!" Wu Chengfeng muttered dissatisfiedly, he picked up his phone and looked at it, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
