Chapter 32 Market Secret Visits
The brothers think about it too. Mao Youliang said: "Then help us find a job first and settle down." Wait for the opportunity to make a lot of money in the future. ”
Li Feng patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's right that you can think so, if you can make a lot of money immediately when you go to Shanghai, then who won't rush over?" The Huangpu River can be filled, and the opportunities are left to those who work hard.
Do you think this is good, Brother Ashan stayed in the restaurant, where food and accommodation were included, the boss said, the salary is ten yuan a month, and the money will be added when you are familiar. Ah Liang went to my master's grocery store, where he also had food and lodging, and his salary was ten yuan a month. After speaking, he looked at the brothers.
Mao Youyou and Mao Youliang looked at each other, although ten yuan a month did not reach the goal, it was better than at home, and then said that there was food and shelter, so they nodded and agreed.
Seeing that there was no objection, Li Feng told them to rest early and go back to the hall to watch the four members of the Wu family practice.
Wu Jicai and the four of them were shirtless, their left hands were wrapped with straw ropes, and their right hands were holding canes, and they practiced in pairs.
The hall is full of cane shadows, the cane wind gusts, and when you can't dodge the opponent's cane during sparring, you can block it with your left hand. Because of the rope wrapped, it won't hurt so much when it's hit, and it won't hurt your muscles and bones.
Li Feng stood with a horse step and punched straight, watching them practice, and couldn't help but be proud of his cleverness.
In the early training, they practiced endurance and reflexes, and always felt that something was missing, so they went to the grocery store to find Zhao Yingdi that day, saw a cane and straw rope, and wanted to buy it to practice their hands. Unexpectedly, everyone was very interested in this exercise, and the practice was in full swing every night.
Of course, Li Feng understands that this kind of cane is useless for real combat, and his purpose is to accompany them in hitting skills and dodging blocks, and when they have a weapon in the future, they can exert great power.
Thinking that it is almost June, the protection fee of the White Tiger Gang in the second quarter is coming to collect again, and I don't know if I can stop it with the current manpower. He was very anxious, and his punches were faster and heavier.
Before dawn the next day, Li Feng got up quietly. He now has a knack for waking up early in the morning, and he will wake up automatically when the time comes.
He plans to find out the bottom of the vegetable market and test whether Wu Shoudao's words are true. After a brief wash, I went out and headed for the vegetable market.
The morning wind was cool, and the road was very sparsely populated, except for the light of a few breakfast shops, and the road was dark.
Li Feng walked with one foot high and one foot low, only to see the lights in the distance bright, knowing that it was almost there, he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
In the blink of an eye, the market is already in front of you, full of people and bright lights. The market is located on a vacant lot on the north side of the main road, and it is very well built, with an entrance and exit in the south, east and west. Inside, there are rows and rows, orderly, a slice of vegetables, a slice of meat, and a slice of seafood.
There are also two nearby that buy breakfast, specializing in the business of these early risers.
Li Feng identified the direction and walked straight to the pork stall. The passage was not small, but it became crowded because of the large number of people. He broke out in a stinky sweat before squeezing into a pork stall.
Seeing that there were fewer people in the stalls inside, I squeezed in again. When he arrived at a sparse stall, he asked, "How do you buy pork?" ”
The stall owner, a little old man with bald hair on the front of him, replied, "Then it depends on how much you buy, and if you buy more, it will be cheaper." Then he quoted the price of each part of the pig.
Li Feng said tentatively: "Someone told me that you have cheaper meat here. ”
The old man stared at Li Feng vigilantly and said, "Do you eat it yourself or what do you do for it?" ”
Li Feng made up a lie, saying that he was buying vegetables for the restaurant.
The old man came to his senses, took out a large slice of pork from behind the stall and said, "This is the leftover from yesterday, it is a little cheaper, and I will give you a personal rebate of half percent." ”
Li Feng thought, it seems that half of Wu Shoudao's words are false, and the purpose is to get kickbacks.
Now that the situation was understood, he replied with a very low price. The old man said angrily, "Little Housheng, you haven't woken up yet." How can there be such a cheap goods. If you want to buy it, you can buy it, don't buy people, don't delay me in business. ”
Li Feng muttered: "If you don't sell it, forget it, why do you have this attitude?" With that, he walked away.
The first time he came to this vegetable market, Li Feng was a little excited, and since the task was completed, he walked around.
He walked and watched, and after a while he came to the place where seafood was sold. Since I arrived at the Sichuan restaurant, I rarely eat seafood, and I plan to buy some back. When I arrived at a stall where I bought mud snails, I saw that the mud snails were very large and looked like they were mixed with a lot of water.
He called for two catties, and the stall owner weighed it very neatly and handed it to him, and when he paid it, he was startled, and it was three or four times more expensive than the mud snail in his hometown. It's been weighed, there is no way, I have to pay, who told himself not to ask the price first.
By the way, I took a look at the pee-pee shrimp and jellyfish that people in my hometown don't like to eat, and the price is also amazingly expensive. secretly thought, if you bring these seafood from your hometown, it will really be like Mao Youliang said to make a lot of money.
When Li Feng returned to the hotel, the Mao brothers had already gotten up. When he saw him carrying a mud snail, he asked where he had come from.
Li Feng smiled bitterly and told them that he saw mud snails in the vegetable market and wanted to buy them back and try them. Who knew that mud snails mixed with water were so expensive. Hearing the price, the Mao brothers were also dumbfounded, Mao Youliang said that if he had known that he liked to eat, he would have brought some from home.
Li Feng shook his head and said that it was too troublesome. Mao Youliang said: "What's the trouble, buy it the first day, come by boat the next day, most of the time is almost the same, and the mud snail will not die all at once." ”
Li Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he secretly thought to himself that this was a good business. There are so many people here who buy it, and there is no worry about running out of sales. A plan was formed in his mind, but he didn't tell the Mao brothers, he only told them to eat first and report to Wu Shouren himself.
When Li Feng arrived in front of Wu Shouren's room, he saw that the door was still closed, knocked lightly on the door a few times and said, "Boss Wu, haven't you gotten up yet?" Wu Shouren in the house said, "Oh, it's Li Feng." The door is not bolted, you can come in. ”
Li Feng pushed the door in, only to see Wu Shouren sitting at the table drinking tea, so he told the situation of his morning investigation.
Wu Shouren's face changed, he slapped the table, stood up and paced slowly. Li Feng saw that he was very angry, and stood aside silently.
After a long time, Wu Shouren said, "Li Feng, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”
Li Feng thought about it for a while, and said after consideration: "If he thinks the salary is not enough, he can bring it up to you." It's not okay to make a quick trip like this. If everyone were like him, the hotel wouldn't be able to open. It's just that he has excellent cooking skills, and he has been working here for some years. I don't want you to give him a heads-up, as long as he doesn't do it again, then this matter is over. ”
