Chapter 3 Stalls

After lunch, Jiang Fenglian hurriedly went to work, she was the chef of the restaurant, noon was originally the busiest time, other colleagues knew about Luo Ning's injury, so they asked her to go back to pick up Luo Ning, and the family had a meal together.

Luo Zhenying was busy cleaning up the house and cleaning.

Luo Ning and Luo Fan carried a folding table from Jiang Fenglian's house, came to the bridge not far from the hotel, set the table, and Luo Ning took out a dark blue tablecloth from his backpack and spread it on the table. Then place the necklace and bracelet on the table, and at the same time take out the beautiful little pockets and put them in front of you, which is both attractive and easy to use.

Longkou, the confluence of two rivers, the road up the mountain is also divided into two, forming a three-way intersection. There are three large hotels around the intersection, there are a lot of tourists, and it is the only way up the mountain, and the passenger flow is still considerable. As soon as the stall came out, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, firstly, because it was two children who set up the stall. The second is that these necklaces and bracelets are really colorful and really good-looking.

Immediately, a woman in her thirties came over, looked at it, and asked, "Little friend, how do you sell this chain?"

Luo Ning replied crisply: "Sister, the necklace is a dollar, and the bracelet is eight cents." ”

As soon as the woman heard this "sister", her heart immediately burst into flames: "Oh, my little sister has such a sweet mouth and looks so cute." Okay, buy one as well as my sister. After saying that, I picked two of my favorite styles.

Luo Ning took the money and said, "Sister, I'll put it on for you." Luo Ning quickly put the necklace and bracelet into a small bag and handed it to the woman.

When the woman saw that the small bag was small and beautiful, she said with satisfaction: "Little sister, you are really good at business, this bag is so beautiful." ”

"Thank you sister for the compliment, sister, please help us spread the word. ”

The smile on the woman's face never stopped, and she agreed: "Okay, no problem, I'll go and ask our people to come and buy it." ”

The onlookers around couldn't help but get ready to move, and they gathered around to choose.

Luo Fan saw Luo Ning's approach, knew it in his heart, and cooperated with Luo Ning.

After less than ten minutes, the woman really brought seven or eight more people, all of whom were about the same age as her, and said to Luo Ning with a smile: "Little sister, these are my friends. ”

Luo Ning smiled sweetly at her and thanked, "Thank you, sister!

The women immediately exclaimed: "Oh, the little girl's mouth is so sweet." Come on, call me sister, I'll buy it too. ”

Luo Ning didn't know the psychology of these women, and immediately called her sister one by one and coaxed them into a daze. The effect was amazing, and the crowd's onlookers and coaxing caused a chain reaction, and in less than two hours, all forty chains were sold out.

Luo Ning and Luo Fan happily took the stall, put the table back to the residence, and seeing that Luo Zhenying was not there, they quickly took out all the money and counted it, a total of 36 yuan, excluding the cost of 11 yuan, and made a net profit of 25 yuan.

Luo Ning thought about it, took two yuan and carried it for himself, and handed the remaining 33 yuan to Luo Fan, and said, "Brother, you go down the mountain with my dad tomorrow afternoon, and go to Sister Lin Fang to buy goods in the market the day after tomorrow, well, if the quantity is enough, you will buy 60 each, just thirty yuan." If the quantity is not enough, buy them all. Then go to the county seat and buy a few pockets. ”

Luo Fan saw that this chain was so easy to sell and the profit was high, so he naturally nodded and agreed. Luo Fan carefully put away the money, and the two siblings were about to go out, when they heard someone shouting outside the door: "Luo Ning!"

Luo Ning opened the door and shouted, "Fang Qi, where did you run and come back now?"

Fang Qi said with a smile: "We went to Longji Gorge to play today, and I heard that you made a lot of money just after I came back, so I came to you non-stop." ”

After Fang Qi finished speaking, a voice immediately came from the room next to him: "Luo Ning, you are the latest to come, and you are still making money behind our backs, you must have a treat!"

Luo Ning heard that it was Zhou Yuan's voice, and responded with a smile: "Okay, no problem." Looking at Fang Qi smiling in front of him, all kinds of feelings emerged in his heart, many of these childhood friends have lost contact when they grow up, and now I feel good to see it again!

At this time, Zhou Yuan also opened the door and came out, hugged Luo Ning, and said with a smile while shouting: "Luo Ning, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I miss me!"

"I miss you too!" Luo Ning said sincerely.

"By the way, honestly explain how much money you made selling necklaces? Hurry up and treat yourself!" Zhou Yuan immediately changed his face.

Luo Ning smiled and said: "I don't make much, and I'm not alone, most of it is my brother's, he is to earn tuition, it's not enough." ”

Zhou Yuan and Fang Qi glanced at Luo Fan and asked curiously, "Are you Luo Ning's brother?"

Luo Fan replied honestly: "Ten years old." ”

"You have to earn your own tuition when you're only ten years old?" Zhou Yuan and Fang Qi looked at Luo Fan with pity.

"Don't look at my brother like that, he might have done it. Luo Ning was a little displeased, she didn't want others to look at Luo Fan with sympathy and pity, it would hurt his self-esteem.

Zhou Yuan and Fang Qi were still young after all, and they didn't understand what Luo Ning meant, and seeing that her face was uncertain, they withdrew their gaze from Luo Fan. Fang Qi pouted and said, "Then what did you invite us to eat?"

Luo Ning thought for a moment and said, "I have a dollar, you can buy it!" ”

Someone treated, the friends were very positive and enthusiastic, and after a while, people gathered, and more than a dozen people marched to the commissary.

When I arrived at the commissary, I bought a bag of sandwich biscuits, a bag of white rabbit toffee, and weighed melon seeds for the remaining two cents. The big guys found a big rock in the dam, sat around like a picnic, put the snacks in the middle, and shared them with each other.

Luo Ning introduced Luo Fan to everyone: "Big guy, this is my cousin Luo Fan. During the summer vacation, he will often come here to sell chains to earn tuition, don't bully him!"

The friends agreed: "No problem." ”

Luo Fan thanked him repeatedly, and quietly went to the commissary to buy some snacks, and when he got it to everyone, there was another burst of coaxing. The eldest Li Jun patted Luo Fan on the shoulder and said, "Luo Fan, it's really interesting." In the future, if someone dares to bully you, the big guy will definitely help you!"

Luo Ning smiled and said, "With you watching, I'm relieved." When my brother has earned enough tuition, I will invite everyone to eat. ”

The crowd applauded in unison.

Luo Ning looked at everyone with a smile, it naturally made sense for her to be so generous. Their business is so good that it will inevitably arouse the jealousy of others, and if someone comes to make trouble while they are setting up their stalls, it will not be enough for them to rely on their two children. These friends are all the children of the employees of the Qingquan Hotel, usually come here on weekends and winter and summer vacations, and the big guys have grown up together since childhood, and the relationship is quite good. They take care of the small business, at least they are not afraid of someone causing trouble.

The next morning, Luo Fan didn't wait for Luo Zhenying, and went home first. Around four o'clock on Monday afternoon, he returned with a large backpack on his back.

The two counted the number in the house, a total of 60 necklaces and 66 bracelets. Luo Fan said: "Sister Lin Fang took out all her inventory, there is only so much in total. She can weave up to 30 necklaces a day, or 50 bracelets, from morning to night. I won't be able to get that much next time. ”

Luo Ning thought for a while and said, "After selling it this time, my brother's tuition for the next semester will be enough." The rest of the money is kept for other businesses. By the way, brother, did you buy a plastic bag?"

Luo Fan nodded, and took out four pockets from the side pockets of his backpack.

Time is money, and the two immediately took the guy's business to the old place to set up a stall. This time Luo Fan already had experience, Luo Ning was impatient to stay there, and slipped away after explaining to Luo Fan, and didn't come to change Luo Fan back for dinner until after eight o'clock.

Today is not as popular as last time, but it is still good, and by the time the stall closed at nine o'clock in the evening, more than 30 were sold. As soon as Luo Fan put the chain into his backpack, he saw three fourteen or fifteen-year-old half-year-olds surrounding him, and one of the leaders crossed his hands in front of his chest, looked at Luo Fan with contempt, and said, "Boy, business is good! Look at you for a long time, have you set up a stall here with our consent? Obediently, hand over all the money!"

Luo Fan unhurriedly took out a whistle from his pocket and blew a few times to inform the friends of Qingquan Hotel. This was Li Jun's idea, and since he promised to help take care of it, he naturally had to do it. Luo Fan replied: "This is a public area, anyone can set up a stall, why should I give you money." ”

"Yo, it's tough. The third child, stunned, grab the backpack!" After saying that, he grabbed Luo Fan by the collar and pressed him down on the table. Luo Fan fell down, pressed the backpack under him, grabbed the backpack strap with both hands, and didn't let go no matter how much they pulled it.

Luo Ning and Fang Qi and the other girls were playing on the dam outside the Qingquan Hotel, and as soon as they heard the whistle, they immediately knew that something was wrong. While running out, he shouted: "Someone smashed my brother's stall, Yuanyuan, Qiqi, you go to Li Jun and they come to help." ”

The other two little girls followed behind Luo Ning and ran to the bridge, just in time to see Luo Fan being pressed to the ground and beaten, the backpack had been pulled out half, and Luo Fan was still clutching it.

Luo Ning rushed up, pushed away the stunned, and shouted: "Stop! Big Tiger, stunned, stop!"

The leader was called Dahu, a local, and occasionally played with those children, so when he saw Luo Ning, he paused for a moment and said, "It's you! Who is he?"

Luo Ning said: "He is my cousin. Why did you hit him?"

"He set up a stall here without our consent, and he didn't pay him when he was asked to pay it, isn't he looking for a fight?" said the big tiger ruffian.

Luo Ning smiled: "When did this become the territory of the few of you?"

"I said yes!" the big tiger glared, "You dodge, or Lao Tzu will beat you together!"

Luo Ning stood in front of Luo Fan and provoked the big tiger: "You dare!"

Dahu glared at her, slowly raised his arm, and then shook it hard, Luo Fan suddenly blocked in front of Luo Ning, and snapped, Dahu slapped him on the back fiercely. Luo Fan staggered two steps, feeling a hot pain on his back, he couldn't help but say nothing, stuffed the backpack to Luo Ning, and then pushed her behind the two little girls: "Please two of you to protect my sister." After speaking, he turned to face the big tiger and said, "We won't give a penny." ”

Luo Ning was stopped by the two girls, and said anxiously: "Xiaoqin, Yu Juan, you let me pass." Big Tiger, Li Jun, they are coming soon, have you thought about it, do you really want to turn your face with us?"

Dahu glanced at her: "I don't believe that Li Jun will help you all." ”

Luo Ning smiled and said, "Try it if you don't believe it?"
