Chapter 207: A Lot of Little Money
"No problem, no problem. â
I don't know if I'm afraid that Ye Lin will touch it dirty, or if I'm afraid that it will be damaged, as soon as Ye Lin finished speaking, the middle-aged man hurriedly waved his hand.
"Okay, since there is no problem, then let's pay the money!"
"Yes, yes, pay the money. The middle-aged man hurriedly handed over the ten-yuan ticket directly to Ye Lin.
Ye Lin took it and counted it, no more, no less, just twenty-eight, and said, "Just right, you can push the bicycle." â
"It's okay, right? Great, I'll push it away. â
"Let's go. â
The middle-aged uncle is really verbose, a very simple thing, but I didn't expect it to be so complicated by him.
"Selling a bike?"
After the middle-aged man left, Zhai Ying came over and asked.
"Hmm!"
"How much does this bike make?"
"Guess. â
It's not that Ye Lin doesn't want to tell Zhai Ying, but he can't say that this is not a joke, the less one person knows, then there is less danger.
And knowing too much is not a good thing for Zhai Ying, so it's better not to tell her.
"Can't guess. Zhai Ying shook her head.
"Okay, let's not talk about this, sour plum soup...... No, how much did you repair the car just now?"
Hearing Ye Lin ask this, Zhai Ying became excited, handed the wooden box to Ye Lin and said, "Look, there are so many. â
This wooden box is the box for Ye Lin's car repair shop, and some change is usually contained in it, but now it is used by Zhai Ying to hold the money for selling sour plum soup.
Although they are all dime coins or banknotes, there are really a lot of them.
Ye Lin had a headache when he saw these small changes, too, he usually collects large tickets, even if he collects small tickets, he can't collect so much in a month.
"yes! That's it. â
"It's tiring to collect money, isn't it?"
"Not tired. â
He also thought that everyone was the same as him, not to mention Zhai Ying, no one would feel tired of collecting money.
Don't say that you receive a dime, even if you receive a penny, you won't feel tired.
"It's good not to be tired, but it's not a problem, I'll find a way to go back. â
There were originally few people in the car repair shop, and so many people came around, and they immediately became in a hurry, so Ye Lin had to find a way to change it.
There will be no one here, Ye Lin and Zhai Ying said a word, and went back, and when they came back, they saw Ye Lin holding a big wooden box.
This wooden box is 50 centimeters high, about 30 centimeters long and wide, exactly like the donation box of later generations, and there is a lock on the back of the wooden box.
In front of the wooden box, a few words were written, quick repair car coin box, which of course is the money for selling sour plum soup.
However, it can't be said that sour plum soup is sold here, it can only be said that the car repair money is made, and it is a quick car repair.
Ye Lin understands, and those who come to drink iced sour plum soup in the name of repairing cars also understand, as long as they understand.
Seeing Ye Lin come over with a wooden box, Zhai Ying asked incomprehensibly: "Ye Lin, ...... are you?"
"Fill it with money, so that you don't have to collect them one by one, just let them put it in themselves. â
"Uh, that's okay too?"
"Why not?"
"What if someone doesn't vote?"
"Probably not, besides, so many people are watching from the side, who wouldn't vote!"
Hearing Ye Lin say this, Zhai Ying nodded and said, "Also, in this case, I can help you make sour plum soup together." â
"Well, and washing the cups. â
"Yes, wash the cup. â
There are only a hundred cups in total, and they will be used soon, so Zhai Ying has to take them in to clean up.
In fact, people in this era are not so particular, not to mention that several people share a cup, even if several people share a steamed bun, it is normal, and it is still the kind of person who takes a bite and he takes a bite.
But when it comes to Ye Lin, it can't be here, in Ye Lin's opinion, unless it is a family, or someone who is particularly close, it is absolutely impossible to share a cup.
You say that he is poor and exquisite, or you say that he thinks too much, but he can't get along with him anyway.
Time passed by a minute, and soon it was time to get off work, and Ye Lin was busy again, but with this cash box, although the two of them were very busy, they were much more relaxed than at noon.
Everyone is very conscious, although there are a lot of people fishing in troubled waters, but that is harmless, because they are mixing other people's bicycles, and it is not that they don't give money.
No way, this era has not yet reached the time when everyone has a bicycle.
Don't say that everyone has one, if all the people in Dì Dū are counted, a thousand people don't necessarily have a bicycle.
Otherwise, Ye Lin's place would have been surrounded by water for a long time.
Many people are still very particular about it, and leave after drinking, otherwise even if it is, it will be surrounded by water.
The two of them were busy until half past six, and sold a total of three insulated buckets of sour plum soup and two insulated buckets of ice cubes, which together weighed more than 900 catties.
The cups that Ye Lin bought, one cup can hold half a catty, that is to say, in this afternoon, they sold more than 1,800 cups.
What kind of concept is this, it is almost equivalent to the alley where Ye Lin and the others live, and everyone had a drink.
Of course, this is talking about the number of people.
1,800 people is a lot, but for Qianmen Street, this number of people is nothing.
In addition, the sour plum soup that Ye Lin made is a new thing, and it is still chilled, it is estimated that after a while, not so many people will drink it.
It's not that I don't want to drink it, it's that I can't afford it.
A dime a cup, two cents a day, six dollars a month, is nothing for the rich, but for the working class, it's a lot.
Of course, this is talking about those who are fishing in troubled waters and are having bicycles, and they will not care about these few dollars.
Ye Lin pushed the bicycle to be sold, as well as the bicycle that the customer put here to repair, into the house, locked the door, came over and hugged the box and said to Zhai Ying: "Let's go, let's go back." â
"Oh, okay, by the way, what about the sour plum soup you prepared for the two of them?"
"That's not. Ye Lin gestured with his chin.
Zhai Ying looked over, it was Ye Lin's big enamel jar, Ye Lin's big enamel jar is not small, it can hold five catties of water, put the jar on the face, and almost cover the entire face, you can imagine how big it is.
"When did you keep it?"
You know, in the end, it was not enough to buy, Zhai Ying didn't expect that Ye Lin had already set it aside.
"It's been left for a long time, you don't know about those two girls, if I don't bring them back with sour plum soup, I guess I won't be able to eat dinner well. â
Hearing Ye Lin say this, Zhai Ying smiled and didn't speak, she had lived together for so long, she still didn't know Ye Qi and Li Ting.
"Let's go, I'll hold the jar. â
"Hmm. â
Because it was relatively close to home, the two of them did not ride a bicycle.
When the two of them arrived home, Ye Qi and Li Ting were looking at the door, needless to say, they were waiting for the two of them to come back.
Seeing two people coming in, Ye Qi hurriedly ran over and asked, "Where's the sour plum soup?"
"Here you go. Zhai Ying handed over the large enamel jar.
Ye Qi hurriedly took the jar, opened it and looked at it, with a smile on his face.
Ye Lin didn't fill the jar, at most it was four-fifths of it, and it was still considered ice, not only that, but Ye Lin didn't put so much ice on them.
After all, it's not good to drink too much ice, although it won't be too icy, but it will definitely quench your thirst and quench the heat.
"Mom, sour plum soup, I'll pour you a bowl. â
"No need, you guys drink, I'll cook. â
Although my mother said so, Ye Qi still poured a bowl for my mother, and let her and Li Ting drink the rest.
"Ye Lin, is there anything else?"
The two girls drank at least three catties of sour plum soup, and they still didn't feel like it.
"It's gone. â
"Ahh
"This ...... So much?" Ye Lin smiled bitterly.
Even if it is only three catties, then the two of them have drunk one and a half catties each, which is equivalent to three cups, and others will enjoy drinking one cup, and they have not felt it after drinking three cups.
Just when Ye Lin didn't know what to say, Zhai Ying said: "Okay, you two, there are more people today, and there is not enough to sell at all, so I can leave these for you, or Ye Lin left them in advance." â
This is at home, so Zhai Ying doesn't need to shy away from it, if it is outside, she will definitely not mention the word sale.
Hearing what Zhai Ying said, Ye Qi's eyes lit up and asked, "How much did it cost?"
"There it is. Zhai Ying pointed to the box that Ye Lin had put down.
Not only did the box contain the money that was sold in the afternoon, but even the money that was sold in the morning was loaded by Ye Lin.
There's no way, it's all change, if you don't put it in it, how can you get so much.
"Ye Lin, why is it locked?"
Ye Qi went over to pick up the box and put it on the table of the Eight Immortals, only to find that it was locked, so he turned around and asked Ye Lin.
Ye Lin gave Ye Qi a roll of his eyes and said, "Is it okay if you don't lock it?" â
"Hurry up and open it, I'll see how much it sells. â
"Okay. "Ye Lin didn't want to open it, but after thinking about it, let's open it.
Because there are too many, if he is a number, I don't know when he will count, just with their help, it can be a lot faster.
When Ye Lin opened the box and poured the money on the table of the Eight Immortals, whether it was Ye Qi or Li Ting, they all opened their mouths and slapped their mouths.
Not to mention the two of them, even Zhai Ying, who almost knew about it, was surprised.
"Wow, that's a lot of money. Ye Qi shouted, and then threw himself on the table of the Eight Immortals.
"Alright, don't be obsessed with money, hurry up and help me count how much. Ye Lin patted his sister on the head and said.
"Oh. Ye Qi rubbed his head and said, "Count it, why are you beating me?"
"If I don't hit you, you'll be in the eye of money. â
Hearing Ye Lin say this, Zhai Ying and Li Ting covered their mouths and snickered.
There's no way, this Ye Qi is indeed a money fan, and he has an eye for money.
The next four people counted around the table of eight immortals, fortunately, all of them were one dime, it was easier to count, as long as the money was sorted out together.
