After dinner, Qin Qiang and I discussed it for a while, and we all felt that it was without further ado, since we wanted to do it, we had to do it as soon as possible, because the shrimp thing would be gone after October.

After the third grandfather and Qin Qiang left, Mengxue asked me.

"Why are you really planning to open a store?"

"Of course. I nodded: "Actually, I thought about it when I came, but I never had a chance to tell you, and we can't always stay in the village." ”

"I knew you didn't like it here. Meng Xue smiled bitterly on her face.

"It's not a thing, I like it here, but we're still young, so we have to do things. I said.

"You still haven't changed. Meng Xue suddenly said softly.

I was in the heat at that time, I didn't listen at all, I took Mengxue's hand: "Mengxue, let's do things together, I promise to give you a good life." ”

"If you must do it, I will help you. Meng Xue smiled.

"I knew you knew me!" I laughed.

Qin Qiang came to call me early the next morning, and Mengxue and I cleaned up and came out of the house, and in this way, the three of us entered Xinxiang City.

Xinxiang is a county-level city, Qin Qiang said that two years ago it was called Xinxiang County, and after walking around the city, I compared Xinxiang with Rongcheng in my heart, to be honest, it is much smaller than Rongcheng, and the city center is so big, it is indeed a small county.

"Xiao Yu, where do you say we should open a store?" Qin Qiang said with a look left and right.

I know that the third grandfather sent Qin Qiang out with me, and I guess I didn't think much of us, I just didn't want to hit us, let us play by ourselves, I walked around and was actually a little discouraged, Xinxiang County is too small, just a few streets, the flow of people is not large, I don't see many restaurants along the way, there are fewer distinctive shops, the business atmosphere here is not strong, I am afraid it is a little difficult to open a store.

I bowed my head and groaned, and I didn't speak for a long time.

"You're talking!" Qin Qiang looked very interested, I knew at a glance that he was afraid that he had never done business, he was a chick, and Mengxue and I had some business experience.

"Haoyu, are you discouraged?" Meng Xue suddenly glanced at me.

"There are too few people in the county, and it's harder than I thought. I sighed.

"There will be more people in the evening, so I think we can just make a late-night food stall, which is less expensive and easier to do. Meng Xue said suddenly.

As soon as my mind turned, I slapped my face: "You have a good idea!"

"Supper, no longer open shop?" Qin Qiang paused.

"It's open, it's a late-night stall too!" I laughed.

"I've got a good place for a late-night snack. Meng Xue said again.

Mengxue took us to a place, this place is next to the only movie theater in the county, there is a small square in front of the movie theater, there is a circle of shops around the small square, Meng Xue pointed to one of the shops and said, "That store used to be my father's." ”

I sighed, I know Mengxue's relationship with her dad too well, and I was not surprised that she brought us here.

"It's a good location!" I said.

We walked to the store where Mengxue's father used to be, which was no longer a restaurant, but a store that sold clothes.

"Hey, this store seems to be transferred!" Qin Qiang suddenly pulled me.

In the blink of an eye, sure enough, there was a piece of paper pasted on the door of the store next door, and the words "façade transfer" were written on the paper.

I took a look, the transfer store is also selling clothes, the size of the store is also suitable for opening a restaurant, I want to open a shrimp shop, not an ordinary kind of restaurant, as long as the kitchen can make shrimp, because it is a supper, the table that cannot be placed in the store can be placed in the small square outside...... I discussed it with Mengxue in a whisper, and we both felt that this store was enough.

"Boss, how do you turn this shop?" After discussing, we walked directly into the store.

On the same day, we negotiated the transfer of the store, the boss was in a hurry to sell, the price was not high, the cost of opening a store in a small county town was much less than I imagined, and we began to discuss the renovation again, and the store should be rebuilt according to my requirements. This matter was originally a headache for me, because I was not familiar with the place and didn't know where to find workers and kitchen utensils, but I didn't expect that as soon as I said it, Qin Qiang patted his chest directly.

"One of my classmates is in the city doing construction, and I can call him right away. ”

This is an unexpected joy, without further ado, I immediately asked Qin Qiang to call his classmate, and it didn't take long for Qin Qiang's classmate to come, Qin Qiang's classmate's surname is Chen, his face looks older than Qin Qiang, with a bag under his arm, looking like a standard small businessman.

"Lao Chen, it's been a long time. When they met, Qin Qiang smiled and shook hands with his classmate.

After briefly introducing each other, I directly talked to Lao Chen about business, my shrimp shop has a time limit, and I am also anxious and don't want to waste a little time.

I took Lao Chen to the store and told him in person, I said the request, Lao Chen nodded with a slight groan: "No problem, I can do this." ”

"How many days?" I asked.

"A month. Lao Chen replied.

"This can't work, at most a week, if you can't do it, I'll change people. I said simply.

Lao Chen's face was embarrassed. "Time is too tight. ”

"Lao Chen, why don't you rush me to find you!" Qin Qiang said.

At my insistence, Lao Chen reluctantly agreed, and I also made another request, I asked Lao Chen to help me get a model of a big lobster as a signboard, since I want to sell crayfish, simply make an image endorsement shrimp! This is my temporary idea.

Lao Chen left with a sad face, I asked Qin Qiang to follow him, and my explanation to Qin Qiang was to keep an eye on Lao Chen, and make sure that he could finish it within a week.

After they left, I made a phone call to the third grandfather, and I asked the third grandfather to organize the villagers to start fishing for shrimp, and for a week, I had to save a little shrimp in advance, no matter whether the business was good or not, I had to prepare first.

After hanging up the phone, Mengxue and I began to look for a place to live, after opening the store, we will definitely not be able to go back to the village, and the store will definitely not be able to live, so we can only find a place to live nearby.

The next day we found a place to live nearby, it was a two-bedroom apartment, the first floor with a yard, and we built a small house in the yard, we were satisfied with all the conditions, and I paid half a year's rent on the spot.

Then Mengxue and I went back to the village, we said goodbye to my grandmother, and then I went to see the third grandfather, the third grandfather was already organizing the collection of shrimp, and half of the children in the village were almost mobilized by the third grandfather, and some shrimp had been saved.

"Baby, you do it well, the third grandfather will help you if he can help you. "The third grandfather has nothing else to say, only this sentence, with the third grandfather's sentence, I am more motivated.

Mengxue and I only stayed in the village for half a day, explained some things, we rushed back to the city in a hurry, just two days I began to have the mood of opening a hot pot restaurant again, busy but happy!

In the next few days, I was staring at Lao Chen, the store began to be rebuilt, I was refining my ideas little by little, I was also the first time to open a shrimp shop, and I had no experience, so I could only explore according to the experience of opening a hot pot restaurant before, I was staring at the store renovation, Mengxue went to buy utensils, pots and pans in the kitchen, tables, chairs and benches, all the trivial things were done by myself, and when I really did it, I felt that Mengxue was still capable, and with her to do it, I could rest assured that many things were done.

In the busyness, the days passed quickly, and the first shrimp shop in my life was renovated in less than a week!

On the day of completion, Lao Chen took my hand: "Boss Xiao Wang, you are urging me to die, I have worked hard!"

"What about the model I want?" I ignored Lao Chen's hypocrisy and asked directly.

"It's coming in the afternoon, don't worry, I'll run this thing myself. Qin Qiang said with a smile.

"Okay, we'll open in the evening!" I said proudly.

"Let the third grandfather hurry up and send a tank of shrimp over. I said to Qin Qiang again.

"Okay!" Qin Qiang went to call.

"Boss Xiao Wang, is the shrimp you opened the shrimp shop that sells the kind of shrimp caught in the ditch?" Lao Chen suddenly asked.

"yes. I answered.

"That thing......" Old Chen gave me a strange look, and immediately laughed again: "I wish you a prosperous business and make money every day!"

I know that Lao Chen is not optimistic about my business, these days I took the time to visit a few vegetable markets in the county, in the vegetable market I have really seen the sale of crayfish, the number is very small, just a small pot, basically no one buys, the people in the county are afraid that there are fewer people in the village who know crayfish, I have eaten less, this is actually not a good thing, at best I sell shrimp can attract attention, at worst to say that a new thing to make people accept it is very difficult!
