Chapter 224: Selling Steamed Buns
Although she is rich, Lamei does not dare to spend lavishly, because her burden is heavy. In addition to the debt of 20,000 yuan, he also shouldered the rations of the eleventh team, and it had to drizzle in the whole village, and it was a long time. She had to have enough savings to stay out of the cracks.
She is still the same as in the past, after noon, she goes to the hotels and restaurants in the past and modern times to collect leftovers, and in the afternoon she goes to the modern market or vegetable market to pick up the vegetables that people throw away or dispose of.
"Steamed buns, hot steamed buns just out of the cage!"
On this day, Lamei was wandering around the modern bazaar, and a shout attracted her. When I turned my head, I saw a young man standing next to a tricycle shouting.
On the tricycle was a large dustpan covered with a white cloth sheet. In the corner of the dustpan, a snow-white round steamed bun is inserted with chopsticks.
Next to the tricycle is a tricycle with a large dustpan covered with a white cloth sheet, and a middle-aged woman stands next to it, who seems to be selling steamed buns.
This kind of scene Lamei often sees, in the past, she had no money, and thought that it was a picture of modern life, which had nothing to do with her. She eats all the leftover steamed buns collected from hotels and restaurants.
I bought it when I took off the billet, but it was for the people who worked. She never considered buying it for herself.
Today, however, she thought of selling.
"How do you sell these steamed buns?" asked Lamei as she walked over.
The young man swept her from the corner of his eye, and said disdainfully: "The child will still ask the price, will you buy it?"
Lamei was neither humble nor arrogant, and said in an accentuated tone: "I asked you how much is a dollar?"
As soon as the young man heard that the head was wrong, he looked at Lamei from Xinzheng and said with some curtle: "The old price, four yuan a dollar." ”
Lamei's chest straightened: "How much is wholesale?"
The young man was a little surprised, and looked at Lamei with curiosity: "What?
Lamei tilted her head: "Well, as long as it's appropriate." "Words in my heart: It's not a small person, my sister has to do it, and she makes more money than you!
"It's hard work to do this, and you can't make much money!" The middle-aged woman next to her interjected: "You are so small that you can't reach the tricycle, how can you transport it out?"
Lamei: "If Li'er is big, I'll find a way." You tell me how to wholesale?"
Middle-aged woman: "Five grants for one dollar, two cents and five cents for selling for one dollar." I only earn twenty-five yuan in one hundred, and I can't sell two hundred in a day, which is much less than doing a day labor. A day of street sweeping is more than 50 yuan!"
Lamei: "I've heard that street sweepers have to watch the street for ten hours!"
Middle-aged woman: "Just do this!"
Lamei was happy in her heart: five steamed buns for one dollar, and in reality, she would not lose money if she sold them for two cents. In reality, people are starving, and money can't buy food. Especially the people in the county are rushing to buy it if they are not crazy!
In order to repay the people for providing information, Lamei bought a middle-aged woman's steamed buns for one dollar. I asked about the location of the steamed bun room, and happily took the preparation and went.
Looking at the tricycle market, she really can't pedal the tricycle, and she can't ride it even if she puts a big dustpan steamed bun.
Then buy an electric tricycle with a rear bucket, which can run as soon as the electric door is opened, and the foot can also step on the foot pedal, which is just right for her figure.
There is another benefit to buying an electric car: it is fast and saves time. From Wangdian Village to the city, it is only ten minutes, which is much faster than riding a bicycle.
Another is not to let the steamed bun seller look down on himself: don't look at the small people, the means of transportation are advanced. You can drive far away to sell, just for your own sloppy crossing.
The space passage connects reality and modernity, the front door is reality, and the back door is modern, with only a hall in between.
Lamei rode an electric tricycle with a big dustpan and bought steamed buns in a modern steamed bun room, and no one flashed into the space passage.
In the passage of space (in the hall), the dustpan is moved to the wooden wheelbarrow, and then out of the front door to sell steamed buns in reality.
The wooden wheelbarrow was made by his father Wang Changsuo from the wooden strips left over from the house. In fact, it is very simple: two wooden strips are used as car frames, and a small wooden wheel is pressed in front of it. A few trapezoidal beams are nailed to the frame, and two small short legs are pressed below, and a trolley with a narrow front and a wide back is considered a success. Put a dustpan weighing dozens of pounds, and Lamei can be pushed.
The electric tricycle is light and economical, and you can drive it when you go up, but Lamei does not dare to ride it in reality. During this period, in reality, not to mention electric tricycles, there were no pedal tricycles, and they were generally wooden and red.
The wooden wheels and red cars are all made according to the size used by adults, the uniwheel, not to mention unstable, the shelves are also high and wide, and Lamei's two small arms are stretched out horizontally, so that they can grasp the handle, not to mention pushing forward with force.
The wooden wheelbarrow is much more convenient: the spacing between the shelves and the legs can be set arbitrarily. Wang Changsuo is made for the body of the plum, which is very suitable for the use of the plum.
The wooden wheelbarrow can only be used in reality.
The reason why the two tools are prepared is because the difference between the two eras is 50 years, and the wooden wheelbarrow in reality has become history in modern times, and it is impossible to see it at all. If Lamei is launched, people will definitely find it novel and watch her.
Electric tricycles can't be pushed into reality, and pushing them is bound to cause a sensation. Lamei is small, and she will definitely be regarded as a demon!
In order not to attract attention on both sides, Lamei used an electric tricycle to buy steamed buns in Hyundai, and after arriving at the space passage, she replaced them with small wooden wheelbarrows, and then pushed them out. Two eras and two vehicles, which one should be used, one should not be confused at one time.
Lamei also wrote a sign on a paper jacket and erected it on the side of the dustpan: starting with two cents, one ticket and one steamed bun (two one-cent ones can also be used), and no change.
The reason why Lamei did this was because there were many people who bought it, and she didn't know which hand to give it to, and she didn't know which hand to give it to. One is to sell quickly without mistakes, and the other is that the paper money of one and two cents is inconspicuous in modern times.
"I want you two steamed buns for five cents, can you find one penny?" a customer asked.
Lamei: "No, there will be no change, and if you take a dime, you will sell it to one." ”
Five-cent numbered banknotes are much more expensive than one-cent and two-cent notes, and in order to sell them quickly, Lamei just doesn't give change.
In reality, it is not difficult for her to exchange all kinds of banknotes. On the contrary, selling steamed buns is both novel and unique, and it has to be constantly guarded against being discovered by industrial and commercial personnel. She didn't want to waste any time on this, so she decided it quickly and left as soon as it was sold out.
"What are you trying to do? What money isn't spent the same?" the customer muttered puzzled.
Lamei smiled and looked up: "I don't know how to count, I'm afraid I'm afraid I'll find the wrong one." You're better off buying it for a penny. ”
