Chapter 57 Rock Sugar Gourd
At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Xiang had to go home. Because she promised her parents that she would make dumplings with her family, and then watch the Spring Festival Gala.
Xiao Yun sent Lin Xiang to the door of the house, and then hugged her for about ten minutes before letting go of Lin Xiang and letting her go home.
After watching Lin Xiang walk into the house, Xiao Yun stood for about 5 more minutes, and then began to walk back slowly.
He lied to Lin Xiang before, because he hadn't thought about how to make money in the future.
Just as Lin Xiang feared, if Xiao Yun still planned to continue to do the clothing business, it would be impossible for Yashi Garment Factory to continue to cooperate with him. And he has never dealt with other garment factories at all, and it will be very difficult to reopen the situation.
And during the Spring Festival, all garment factories will stop working, allowing workers to return to their hometowns for the New Year. Where is there still goods for him to sell.
Although Lin Xiang's home was about a mile away from Xiao Yun's house, Xiao Yun did not choose to take a car, but walked slowly on the street alone.
In the 90s, the atmosphere of the New Year in Yueling City was still quite strong.
Spring Festival couplets are pasted in front of all the shops. Many children ran around the street in new clothes, picking up small firecrackers on the ground that had not been blown up, and then holding incense and lighting them one by one. That's the greatest fun for kids.
By this time of the afternoon, there are not many people on the street, and most of them are cooking or making dumplings at home.
At that time, people were still in the mood to spend the Spring Festival in the restaurant. They feel that at home, there are relatives gathered together, and reunion is the taste of the New Year.
All shops and malls have basically closed early.
Walking on the streets are almost all people who have just gotten off work and are going home for the New Year.
When Xiao Yun was about to walk to his alley, he suddenly saw an old man selling rock sugar gourds sitting at the mouth of the alley, surrounded by many children, smiling and handing over one sugar gourd after another to the children.
Xiao Yun walked over unconsciously, but an idea suddenly flashed through his mind.
He went back and bought a sugar gourd from the old man.
At that time, the sugar gourd was the sweetest taste in Xiao Yun's memory.
There is no pigment, there are no additives, it is such a pure rock sugar gourd, which makes people forget it after eating it once.
After Xiao Yun took a bite of the rock sugar gourd, he felt that the familiar taste had returned to his taste buds.
Xiao Yun suddenly showed a very proud expression, he had a plan, that is, to make rock sugar gourds.
In the 90s, rock sugar gourds have not been developed into many types, only rock sugar gourds made of hawthorn fruit. But Xiao Yun is a person from the future. He already knows how to arouse people's curiosity and make enough money.
Rock sugar gourds are generally popular among children and young people. And during the Chinese New Year, children are the richest, and they have a lot of New Year's money. And even if the New Year's money is confiscated by the parents, it will be very easy to earn their money, and it should be the easiest to earn their money.
After Xiao Yun thought of this method, he returned home and told Li Dazhuang.
Li Dazhuang has stayed in his house as if he was a member of the family itself.
At this time, he was watching TV in the most comfortable position on the sofa.
Xiao Yun's parents were busy cooking Chinese New Year's Eve meals in the kitchen.
After listening to Xiao Yun's thoughts, Li Dazhuang felt incredible.
"Oranges can also be made into sugar gourds? bananas, apples, walnuts. What are you kidding? I've been eating rock sugar gourds for more than 20 years, and I've never seen them skewered on a skewer and skewered. Don't say you can't make it, and even if you do, no one will necessarily buy it. ”
"If you make it, someone will buy it. You can rest assured of that. There is always a period of acceptance of new foods, but when that period passes, they flock to it. Our rock sugar gourds will definitely sell out of stock. ”
Xiao Yun had heard Li Dazhuang say before that he would make rock sugar gourds, and he had sold them for a while. It's just that I didn't think I could make a lot of money selling this thing, so I gave up.
Xiao Yun felt that Li Dazhuang was an inexhaustible treasure, and there was nothing he wouldn't know.
Li Dazhuang blinked his little eyes, and then said to Xiao Yun, "Then I will believe you again." ”
Xiao Yun slapped him on the back: "Trust me, brother!"
"You two hurry up and help. Otherwise, I won't be able to eat hot dumplings tonight. Just keep me and your mother busy?"
Li Dazhuang and Xiao Yun hurriedly went to wash their hands, and then joined the ranks of making dumplings.
The dumplings made by Li Dazhuang were warmly praised by Xiao Yun's parents.
Xiao Yun felt that although Li Dazhuang was said to be a person who was not good-looking, he really had a lot of skills. There are a lot of flashes that are not easy to spot.
Even Xiao Yun felt that if the dumplings made by Li Dazhuang were sold in the supermarket, someone would definitely buy them. The shape of the dumplings is really beautiful.
Xiao Yun has never made dumplings since he was a child. Although I have been learning for decades, I still haven't learned. The dumplings are so ugly that people don't have any appetite.
Later, Xiao Yun's father removed Xiao Yun from the ranks of making dumplings.
In previous years, they really didn't have anyone to help, so they had to let Xiao Yun join the ranks of making dumplings.
But this year is different, they have a capable helper, Li Dazhuang makes dumplings quickly, and at the same time the quality is high, and he quickly won the love of Xiao Yun's parents, as if he had gained a new son.
And Xiao Yun, the old son, curled up on the sofa and began to watch TV.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Spring Festival Gala officially began.
While Xiao Yun was eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with his family, he revisited the programs he had watched countless times.
Every Chinese New Year, these classic programs will be re-broadcast on the TV station. When Xiao Yun lived to be in his fifties, he was already quite tired of these shows.
But the atmosphere at this moment is completely different. Those passages that no longer felt funny were re-enacted, and Xiao Yun laughed the most.
The dishes on the table are steaming hot and fragrant at the same time. My dearest parents are still alive and well, and I have added a best friend. What could be more happier in the world than such a joyful atmosphere?
On that day, Xiao Yun's father, Xiao Yun, and Li Dazhuang drank a little wine together, and gave Xiao Yun and Li Dazhuang a red envelope with Xiao Yun's mother.
Xiao Yun didn't want it: "I'm such a big person, you don't need to give me New Year's money anymore." ”
"Stinky boy, even if you grow up to seventy or eighty, you are still my son. Give it to you, you take it, don't even want money. This kid is really stupid. ”
Li Dazhuang did not refuse the red envelope given to him by Xiao Yun's parents, and said very sweetly: "Thank you, uncle and aunt." You are like my real parents. ”
As soon as he said this, Xiao Yun's parents were very happy.
After eating the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, at 12 midnight, Xiao Yun and Li Dazhuang went outside the alley to set off firecrackers and fireworks.
There are a lot of people setting off firecrackers and fireworks in the alleys. The scene of firecrackers and fireworks blooming in front of his eyes at the same time, Xiao Yun has not seen it for many years.
While everyone else was shrinking their necks and covering their ears, Xiao Yun showed the brightest smile.
Li Dazhuang looked at Xiao Yun from the side, and at the same time smirked, feeling that Xiao Yun was really hopeless. He owes Lin Xiang 10,000 yuan, and he still behaves so heartlessly. I followed him by myself, and I don't know if I can make a name for myself.
