Chapter 45 is bleak
"That night I was drunk and took you by the hand, and talked nonsense,
Only cares about the suppressed thoughts in his heart, and expresses them wildly,
My intoxicated eyes can't see your expression clearly,
I forgot how you would react at the time......"
"Impulsive Punishment", a very popular song this summer, Daolang's famous song, at this time, the big black fish was humming happily while packing a snail for the guests, and his expression was so beautiful that his nose was bubbling.
From time to time, he glanced refreshedly at Zhou An, who was sitting there across the street.
"You snail, let's go!"
Before the guests had gone far, the big black fish, who was in a very good mood, turned his head and said to his daughter-in-law, "How about it? I'll just say that this trick works, right? Look at the little red guy on the other side! Fight with Lao Tzu! Lao Tzu let him lose without a hat and pants without a crotch!
The big black fish's daughter-in-law also showed a smile on her black and thin face, and said with a chuckle: "You should have done this last time, it is the next step to beat people, otherwise how could the management committee here warn us?"
The corners of the big black fish's mouth curled, "It's not too late to do this now!"
On the other side of the street, Zhou An sat behind the stall with a cold face, occasionally selling a snail, and most of the time he watched the big black fish on the opposite side of the street sell.
The price of the big black fish snail tonight has been reduced, but he has not, and in the past half an hour, most of the diners who bought the spiced snail have been attracted to it.
As it turns out, many diners can't resist the temptation of low prices.
"Hehe, Xiao Anzi! I'll just say it! The big black fish has lowered its price, and if you don't drop it here, you will definitely not be able to sell it tonight! Otherwise, you can also drop it! It will also be reduced to 10 yuan, and with the reputation you have sold in the recent period, as long as you also sell 10 yuan, the business will definitely be yours! If the big black fish continues to reduce the price, then we will talk about it at that time! What if he doesn't drop it anymore? Do you say it?"
Uncle Lu, who was selling baked cakes next to him, was holding baked cakes for the guests, and at the same time nagging Zhou An with ideas.
Tonight's baked cake business is better than Zhou An's snail business, and in the past few days, his baked cake business can't be compared with Zhou An's business.
With this comparison, you can imagine what kind of bird Zhou An's business has faded into tonight.
After he finished nagging, Zhou An turned his face and looked at him expressionlessly, "Uncle, please don't add the word 'small' in front of me next time you call me Anzi, okay? I have it, not a eunuch!"
"Poof......
The woman who took the baked cake and was about to leave laughed, and Uncle Lu was also amused, and waved his hand while laughing and said: "Okay, good! Anzi! I won't call you Xiao Anzi in the future, okay! My old man also asks you not to make me laugh like this, if the guests see my laughing and spitting saliva splashed on the baked cakes, I won't be able to do this baked cake business in the future!"
After a pause, Uncle Lu said again: "No! Xiao Anzi ......"
Seeing Zhou An glaring at him expressionlessly, Uncle Lu hurriedly changed his words, "No, Anzi! Anzi! I said, didn't you listen to the point of what I just said? Why did you notice a title? What do you think? I advise you to lower the price! The big black fish wants to compete viciously with you, hurting people with this, and if you don't accompany you, you won't be able to do business!"
Zhou An retracted his gaze, looked coldly at the business of the big black fish, and said lightly: "He is looking for death by himself, uncle! You just wait and see! Let him be proud for two days first, and you will see it in two days!"
"Uh, what's your solution?
Don't look at the uncle's age, his curiosity is quite strong.
It's a pity that Zhou An didn't satisfy his curiosity.
"You'll find out when you look at it in two days!"
……
Zhou Jian's business at the gate of the county No. 1 Middle School tonight is okay, and he is very happy to sell one by one, and what is even happier is that there are a few repeat customers who bought his snails yesterday tonight.
What impressed him the most was the young woman in her thirties who was the first to buy his snails last night.
This young woman's appearance can actually only be regarded as above average, her eyes are not big, her lips are slightly thick, and her height is only above average, but when Zhou Jian saw her twice, her heart beat faster, and her face was red.
Because this young woman's skin is very white and delicate, although her eyes are not big, her eyes are dark and very divine, and she can see that the deer in his heart has a blue nose and swollen face.
Especially her voice, soft, listening to her voice, Zhou Jian felt as if a goose feather was gently scratching on the tip of his heart.
When she came to buy snails tonight, she smiled and praised him, "Young man, your snails are very delicious, bring me another one!"
At that time, Zhou Jian was very happy to hear it, but as soon as he raised his head and met her smiling eyes, he panicked, and hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to give her a snail, but his eyes unexpectedly caught a glimpse of a bright red thread tied on her right ankle, and a few small gold beads the size of pearls on the red line.
The red thread and gold beads reflected the white and dazzling skin at her ankles.
Until the young woman bought the snail and walked away, Zhou Jian's gaze couldn't be removed from her back.
Maybe it's the lack of maternal love, maybe it's his good development, 14-year-old Zhou Jian's heart was snatched away by the young woman tonight.
He was able to appreciate the beauty of this young woman like an adult man.
Womanly?
Intellectual beauty?
Zhou Jian couldn't say clearly, he just felt that the young woman who seemed to be average-looking was not beautiful in any place.
Because his mind has been immersed in the young woman for a long time, Zhou Jian is actually a little absent-minded about selling snails tonight, but he can't stand the fact that there are many people who come to buy his snails tonight.
In an hour, I sold half a barrel.
By half-past nine, the snails in his bucket were almost at the bottom.
It was only at this time that Zhou Jian came back to his senses, looked at the few snails in the bucket, and then looked at the cheap electronic watch on his wrist, and saw that the time difference was half past nine in a few minutes.
He frowned slightly, and said to himself in confusion: "It's all this time, the snails in the eldest brother's place should be sold out, right? Why didn't you come to me to get the snails? Didn't you say that you would come and get them when you sold out!"
The young man feels a lot, at this point in time, he is a little sleepy, thinking about going home and sleeping after selling it early!
Where did he expect that at this time, over there in the food street, Zhou An's barrel still had more than half a bucket of snails unsold!
The snails of the big black fish diagonally opposite were finally sold out, and diners who wanted to buy snails could finally only come to Zhou An, but Zhou An was not happy, because at this point in time, the passenger flow of the food street had been significantly sparse, and several stalls with good business were already packing up their things and preparing to go back.
Even Uncle Lu, who was selling baked cakes next to him, yawned and said, "Anzi! Old man, I'll accompany you for another half hour, and then I'll go back to rest! There are no more guests behind, waiting for one or two guests for half a day is simply selling Yangshou!"
Zhou An looked at the half of the barrel of snails in his bucket that had not yet been sold, and his face was not very good-looking.
