Zhang Li belongs to the person who can't hold it when the conversation box is opened, which roughly means that the current "Xiushui" is still an unmanaged area, and the development of self-employed people is subject to many restrictions, it is not easy to make money, and it is quite easy to be bullied. You see those "fallen masters" who make money, digging deep into the background is not simple, there are gangsters, stubborn masters, and habitual criminals in the bureau who are three in and three out, just like Niu Huanran said - is the fallen master a serious person who can do a job?

Of course not, in another ten years! And after time enters the 21st century, there is also an online "inverted master", selling goods on the Internet, but also making clothes, if the business is good, you can earn millions a year!

Tian Guo waited less than ten years later, after all, the market had been almost divided by the previous masters. The late eighties and early nineties were the best time to make use of the difference between the planned and unplanned economic commodities. If you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life.

So no matter how difficult it is, Tianguo has to give it a try!

"Sister Li, I understand everything you said, but I still want to give it a try"

"Try? What to try? That 200 bucks?! Zhang Li widened her eyes, thinking that Tian Guo was a young man with no social experience, "You didn't listen to me just now?" 200 yuan can't do anything, listen to me, put the 200 yuan in zài bank, and the interest for a year is a lot! The work of the barbershop is very good, the wind does not blow and the rain does not get wet, the key is the handiwork, now that life is a little better, who does not perm their hair? Tian Guo, listen to me, don't toss around, be your barber well! ”

And then? Find a good young man with a house in the third ring road to marry? Dare I be reborn just to live an ordinary life?

Tian Guo was not convinced, the momentum of becoming a superstar when he was just an actor came out again, "Sister Li, thank you for telling me so much, but I still want to practice stalls, not for anything else, I have to earn money so that my grandma can live a good life!" You don't know that our family has a difficult life in the alley, and even the semiconductor radio was given by the neighborhood committee in response to the country's call for poverty alleviation. ”

"Your family is poor?" Zhang Li glanced Tian Guo up and down, feeling that she looked quite foreign, and remembered her eyes when she picked out her skirt that day, unlike a poor girl who had never seen the world.

Tian Guo lowered his head and thought about it, feeling that if he wanted Zhang Li to help, he had to be honest in some aspects. With a long sigh, Tian Guo told Zhang Li about his life experience, including grandpa's loser, grandma's difficulty, and his mother's early death, but he concealed the Japanese father's affairs.

Obediently, if this is said, I'm afraid Tian Guo really won't be able to stay in Xiushui, who knows which of the predecessors of the practice stall is the descendant of the revolution/life/family?

Although China and Japan normalized diplomatic relations in the mid-seventies, the hatred of Japan among the people was still quite strict. Tian Guo doesn't think it's an honor to have a Japanese dad at all! The people in the alley remembered that the neighbors in the street lived on weekdays, although they didn't say anything, but occasionally Tian Guo passed under the wall of someone's house, and along the crack in the open window, they could still hear them talking about themselves.

"Don't say it, that little Japanese illegitimate daughter is quite beautiful, and she is really a female college eighteen!"

She loves to listen to the second half of the sentence, and the first half of the sentence is his grandmother's little Japan!

If ordinary people listen to Tian Guo's tragic family history, they will definitely say sympathetically: "What a child with a hard life!" But after listening to it, Zhang Li asked: "What about your father, after so many years, he has never come to you?" ”

In the narrative just now, Tian Guo only said that he had never seen his father, and the other party later smuggled to Japan, and has not been heard from since.

Zhang Li said: "If he doesn't come to you, you can also go to him!" Write a document and submit it, maybe you can approve it! If you want me to say that our China and that little Japan are abusive! Did you read the newspaper the other day? After the defeat of Little Japan in 45 years, many orphans were left in the Northeast, and now that China and Japan have restored diplomatic relations, those orphans are crying and shouting that they want to go back to their motherland to find their biological parents! ”

"You misheard Sister Li, I'm not a descendant of Little Japan!" Tian Guo's heart is empty.

"Hey!" Zhang Li waved her hand and explained: "But the situation is similar, they went to Japan to find your father, and you also went to Japan to find your father, what if you find it?" Japan is a developed country, and its standard of living is several grades higher than ours, haven't you read the newspaper? As soon as the descendants of Japanese orphans find relatives in Japan, they immediately settle down! ”

"Hmph, wolf-hearted." Tian Guo muttered.

"What did you say?"

"I said they were wolf-hearted!"

Zhang Li felt that Tian Guo's excited appearance was very cute, so she continued to tease her: "Tian Guo, if, I am if, you went to Japan to find your father, will you stay there?" ”

"Sister Li, can we change the topic?" Tian Guo didn't expect Zhang Li to be gossip enough, she came here to talk about business, not about the Japanese father

Zhang Li raised her head and smiled, picked up the kettle and added some hot water to Tianguo's cup, and said, "Let's finish talking about this topic first, and then let's talk about the next one." ”

Tian Guo was speechless, thinking that he couldn't hide! But she really chatted, after all, there was too much water in it, for fear that she would miss her mouth if she didn't say it right, so she took a sip of tea, played carefully, and said to Zhang Li: "It's okay to chat, but you have to promise to help me come to Xiushui to set up a stall, otherwise I won't talk!" ”

She thought so, since you can't help me come to Xiushui to set up a stall, why should I sue so many of my **? It's not Xianglin's sister-in-law, she's neurotic!

Just threatened casually, but I didn't expect Zhang Li to nod: "Okay, I promise you, after chatting about this topic, let's talk about coming to Xiushui to set up a stall!" ”

"You promised?" Happiness came too fast to make Tian Guo unbelievable.

Zhang Li blinked slyly: "What I just said is that after talking about that topic, OK?" ”

“OK！ OK！ Tian Guo was full of joy, and then told Zhang Li that even if she found her father in Japan, she would not stay there. There was no soy juice sold there, and a man like me, who was miserable without drinking soy juice all day, really couldn't live in that place. ”

"Do you like soy juice?"

"Hmm!"

Zhang Li raised her hand to look at her watch, "Well, it's time for lunch." I also love to drink bean juice, and there is a bean juice shop all the way south from this road, walk! Sister Li, please drink bean juice! ”

In the bean juice shop, Zhang Li bought two bowls of bean juice, four burnt circles, two plates of fried gnocchi, and a plate of cold cucumber strips.

"It's too much" Tian Guo swallowed and foamed, he was not hungry, but his eyes couldn't help but straighten when he saw the fried pimples. It is also strange to say that Tian Guo is not from Sijiu City, but he has a soft spot for the food in Sijiu City. Beiping people love to drink bean juice, and those who can't drink bean juice are not considered Beiping people. Tian Guo is a native of Jiangxi, and his kung fu in drinking bean juice is no worse than that of the locals, and drinking two bowls each time is the minimum standard.

For some reason, the sour taste that has been demonized by countless people becomes more and more addictive the more you drink it!

Her politeness is fake in Zhang Li's eyes! "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and eat Malier, these days every three or four o'clock in the afternoon to come to the foreign tour group, you are good at foreign language, just happen to help me."

Tian Guo wanted to ask something, but Zhang Li waved her hand and said, "Eat first, and wait for a meal." ”

Businessmen eat quickly, and it takes about ten minutes to divide five by two, and Zhang Li has eaten a large plate of fried gnocchi. Thanks to the blessing of running tricks back then, Tian Guo eats quickly, according to what the drama in the group said back then, Tian Guo, why are you eating and grabbing food Yes, I haven't eaten for a few days?

Zhang Li looked at the energy of gobbling up the image of a lady, and joked with a smile: "At the beginning, I thought you were a special lady, but today after contact, I found that you are also fierce enough, speak happily, and do things neatly, so I rush to eat at you, and the vigor of the tiger is also suitable for business." ”

Back to Xiushui in the afternoon, the so-called foreign tour group has not yet come. Zhang Li asked Tian Guo to sit on the chair, and she sat on the pony, and was silent for a moment before telling what she was thinking.

"I heard you say so much just now, I think it's not easy for you, it's a good thing to want to make money, I'll help you with this!"

"Thank you, Sister Li!" Tian Guo hurriedly said.

Zhang Li waved her hand, her face was slightly stern, and said, "Don't be in a hurry to thank me first, listen to what I say, maybe you still don't agree." ”

Tian Guo was confused, but he didn't ask again, but said to Zhang Li: "That's the case, I signed up for a foreign language class the day before yesterday, and I started classes on the evening of 135. It's summer soon, and the closing time of Xiushui has been changed from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. I just heard you say that you are still working in a barbershop, so don't lose your job in the barbershop, it's a legitimate job, and then when I'm not there, how about you come and sell clothes for me? ”

Hey? That's not bad! It's not easy to do business, it's really unrealistic to set up a stall as soon as you come up, what if you lose money? "Okay!" Tian Guo agreed with this plan and nodded with a smile.

Zhang Li didn't laugh, and after considering the wording, she said, "However, I won't pay you a salary." ”

"Huh?" No wages are paid

"It's not that we don't pay our salaries." Probably because he was afraid that Tian Guo would faint, Zhang Li hurriedly explained: "It's not the first time you've come to Xiushui, since you want to do business, you must have done research before, and you rely on yourself to do business." She took out a random piece of clothes from the pile of clothes on the camp bed, and said, "My idea is that the price of this dress is 5 yuan, and then you sell it for 8 yuan, then the 3 yuan is yours, and if you sell it for 10 yuan, then the 5 yuan is yours, anyway, you are good at English, and it shouldn't be a problem to fool foreigners." I think it's fair, you say? ”

Tian Guo felt that it was very fair, and in a sense, Zhang Li suffered a loss. After all, the principal is from Zhang Li, and she hasn't paid a penny!

"Sister Li, if you do this, you will suffer a little too much."

"Where's the loss?"

"I didn't pay the principal." Tian Guo said, pointing to the dress, "For example, the purchase price is 3 yuan, and the price you set is 5 yuan, and in the end I sold it for 10 yuan, and I earned more than you?" That's not quite right, after all, the booth fee is still yours!

Zhang Li raised her head and smiled, sure enough, she was a person who had never done business, this little girl was too idealistic. Zhang Li didn't answer whether she was at a loss, but said: "Tian Guo, the price I set is basically the upper limit of the market price, it's not easy to do business, you think foreigners are stupid!" He will give you as much as you sell? I just used a metaphor. So, if a foreigner comes in the afternoon, you try to raise the price according to your idea and see if they buy it. ”

She smiled unfathomably, Tian Guo's heart suddenly felt a little empty, she earned the difference in the price, what if she earned a lot of eight cents a month?
