When I arrived at this restaurant called Hu Da, I saw a lot of people waiting for the position at the door, especially the foreigners, there were two large barrels at the door, which were all melon seeds, and the people waiting for the seat were sitting and chatting with melon seeds, and the two foreigners drank beer while knocking melon seeds, chatting very energetically. Looking at this formation and calm expression, I should have been used to it for a long time and came often.

I asked the clerk for the number and asked how long I had to wait, and the waiter looked at the number in my hand and said, "It won't be long, there are not too many people today, and I will definitely be able to get it in two hours at most." "Luo Li and I are dumbfounded, good guy, such an understatement, if you really wait for two hours, it is estimated that you can eat melon seeds and drinks, do you still need to enter the store?

I'm going to change the store to see, look left and right, it's really evil, except for Hu Da's store, almost all the stores have waiters standing at the door to advertise and recruit customers, Hu Da doesn't, but it's like a market. Luo Li said: "The more people in the restaurant, the better it tastes, so be it!" I had to wait here, saying that this was the atmosphere, and I had to agree. Find a corner and sit down, the two of us are drinking Coke with melon seeds, I enjoy the street scene and all kinds of beauties coming and going, while Luo Li is mostly paying attention to the handsome foreigners. This street is the first time for both of us, and the whole street is full of restaurants, and the signs of the houses are written with the names of dishes such as "spicy crayfish", "gluttonous frog" and "boiled fish", which seems to be a street of Sichuan cuisine, and I don't know why it is so famous.

The waiter was very experienced, and I waited for two hours until 8 o'clock in the evening, and I was so hungry that my chest was close to my heart. If it weren't for melon seeds and cola, I would have starved to death. I ordered various flavors of Ma Xiao and cold dishes, put on gloves and started eating, don't look at Luo Li is as timid as a mouse, but she can eat spicy food, I even doubt that she has Sichuan or Hunan blood. No wonder the personality is so spicy and hot, is it spicy food?

Back in the store, I lay in bed and couldn't sleep, thinking about this trip to Zhanjiang. The images of Bai Nanya and Mr. Deng still come to my mind, and I don't know how long it will take for Bai Nanya to cross Guangxi and return to her hometown in Kaili, Guizhou, and whether she will listen to my advice and choose to continue to live.

The next day, Luo Li chatted with me in the store, saying that during the days I had been in Zhanjiang, seven or eight customers had entered the store almost every day, which was significantly more than usual.

"Advertising effect?" I quickly asked.

Luo Li nodded: "Yes, because I saw an increase in customers, so I asked them where they came from." Some said it was under the crack of the company's door, some said that they received a business card in a bar, some said they saw it while chatting with friends, and some said that they picked it up on the ground. Although more than two dozen customers came, none of them bought. I was happy for a few seconds, and then I was discouraged, just looking at it and not buying, it seems that these people still don't know too much about the Buddha card, and they don't know the details and effects of this thing at all, and it is difficult to persuade them to accept it.

Since it is useless to send out advertising, you have to find another way. I decided to continue to take the online promotion route, but to add the information of the Buddhist brand shop, Beijing is the capital of China, the geographical location is very special, whether it is a business trip, study or tourism, many people will come to Beijing. In this way, those customers who know and are interested in the amulet have an additional choice, they used to be able to negotiate with me only by phone and online, but now they can come to Beijing for an interview.

When Luo Li visited the store, I put my laptop on the table in the lounge area and began to re-edit the content of the posting, according to the previous posting list, each website, forum, QQ group, etc. I posted four or five hundred ads a day, and after a few days, I posted two or three thousand. Even if a third is deleted by the moderator, there will still be a lot left.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Beijing is much hotter than the summer in Shenyang. The air conditioning was turned on in the store, but Luo Li had to wear that beautiful but not very breathable Thai women's clothes every day, and I was wearing this white placket, through the glass window, I saw that the passers-by outside were very cool, either suspender skirts or vest pants, we were both very envious, and we looked forward to closing the store after work every day, so that we could change into casual clothes and go out to shop around.

On this day, Luo Li and I had lunch, I sat in the rest area, stilted Erlang's legs and put the thick book of the Buddha card on the table, pretending to read with my chin on my hand, but I was actually sleeping, and Luo Li was napping in the counter. At about two o'clock in the afternoon, I heard the sound of pedestrians and cars outside suddenly getting louder, and it seemed that someone was pushing the door into the store. When I looked back, I saw a tall and thin man entering the store, at least one hundred and eighteen, wearing a white shirt, tight jeans, and large leather shoes, with a cigarette in his hand. He is very white and has long hair, and he looks like he is engaged in art.

"Who is Boss Tian?" This person walked into the store, he didn't even look at the two big people in the store, he directly looked down at the Buddha cards placed on the counter, and then asked without raising his head.

I hurriedly stood up and walked over: "I'm Tian Li, are you looking for me?"

This man looked at the amulet card, glanced sideways at me, and asked, "You sent the card?" I saw that his tone of voice was quite unpolite, and it was not like consulting Buddhist cards, but like he had come to Xingshi to ask about sin, and he said that the business card was issued by me, what's wrong.

"Is it so mysterious?" the man continued to look down at the Buddha card, his tone full of questioning, and even a little sarcastic. At this time, Luo Li woke up, coughed several times, and saw that this person was smoking, so she pointed to the bright "no smoking" icon on the wall, and said, "Sir, please pinch your cigarette, I am allergic to the smell of smoke." ”

Unexpectedly, this person looked up at Luo Li, and then as if he hadn't heard, he slowly moved in front of the counter with the cigarette stick in his hand that kept smoking. I looked at Luo Li, and I motioned for her to go into the bedroom, and Luo Li glared at the man with disdain, and walked quickly into the back room.

The man took a puff of cigarette, looked in the direction Luo Li had gone, said "hypocritical" contemptuously, and then sat down in a chair in the rest area. I thought to myself that this person is really unqualified, and I don't know if he is from Beijing or not. I sat across from him, and this man took the Buddha card album on the table, flipped through a few pages, threw it on the table, and asked me if the Thai Buddha card was effective or not, and whether it was a lie. He wore several large silver rings on his fingers, and the ring had a skull, a woman's face, and what appeared to be a fat ass, all of which were not serious patterns.

I smiled and said, "If such a big Buddha brand store is opened in Beijing, if it is all a lie, then wouldn't there be customers coming back to us every day to settle accounts?" During the conversation, I learned that this person's name is Niu Feng, who sings in a music bar in Sanlitun and is also the lead singer of the band. A few days ago, a friend was passing by, so he came in to have a look, asked for a few business cards, and gave them to him.

At this time, I suddenly remembered that when the Buddha brand shop had not yet opened, a short and fat man came in and asked about the Buddha card, saying that he had a friend who was singing, and always said that he was unlucky.
