Chapter 26 The Commercialization of Tea
Zhou Yi went out to travel in the name of "investigation".
But the development of Dongtian has not stopped.
Since the Dongtian grapes went on the market last year, Li Rui secretly added some private information in the TV column and made a big advertisement for the scenery of Dongtian, so the crowd gradually increased.
There are not many people in the surrounding towns and counties -- it's just a landscape like that, what is there to see? This is what the villagers think.
But for city dwellers, it's different.
The comings and goings of people bring more wealth and opportunities.
The second aunt of the Zhou family, Zhou Ning, is a very traditional woman, a housewife who has worked all her life and can't stop, and a peasant woman in half of the old society.
In her aunt's house on Tuesday, many times, she still maintains the tradition of women not serving in the old society, although Zhou Yi's mother with a strong sense of feminism said several times, but Zhou Ning's still silently cooks the meal, waiting for everyone to finish eating, tidying up the tables and chairs, and then eating everyone's leftover meals.
In recent years, because of running a small shop and having economic autonomy, people's mental outlook has changed a lot, but most of the time, habitually, she still does not sit at the table, but picks up the vegetables, carries the rice bowl, walks to the side, and eats alone.
She couldn't stop.
is also such a person, who has raised hundreds of millions of Chinese people for thousands of years.
Suddenly, one day, when she was asked to stop, she was exhausted.
She was old, in her sixties, her hair was much grayer, her hands and feet were rough, and she was not so easy to use, and in the winter, she was shivering with chapped chilblains and swollen hands.
But she really couldn't let go of the work in her hands.
The children gradually went out, and they all had their own careers and families; Zhou's father and Zhou's mother often travel and socialize, and go to a friend's house to disturb and entertain when they have nothing to do; Because of his profession, the second uncle often couldn't eat at home - and there were fewer and fewer people who could eat her.
Every time I cook a meal, a few phone calls come, and I swallow it alone, how lonely and lonely!
Small shops, they all say small shops, how popular can a small shop in a small town be?
A person who works all year round suddenly became idle, and she only felt that she was empty and empty, so she was not frustrated; A handful of bones, which were originally saved by copper pounding, suddenly felt rusty, and it was not easy to use.
She felt that if she continued like this, she could bury her in the grave for a year and a half.
For the first time, she told her husband Zhou Dajun her thoughts and ideas: "There's nothing to do at home, I'm going to close the store, go to Yi'er to see where it is, your sister always says that it's busy over there, and I'm going to work hard......"
The old and new houses that Zhou Yi renovated in Dongtian were all arranged into small shops, small eateries and inns to provide services to tourists.
There are dozens of houses, how can he be such a lazy and idle person, how can he be tired and tired by himself?
It just so happened that his sister-in-law's child went to junior high school in another place and lived in the school, and the sister-in-law, who was cooking for the child at home, suddenly had no trouble, so she was invited by Zhou Yi.
The sister-in-law is also a housewife, similar to Zhou Ning's family, and in the face of the heavy responsibility entrusted by Zhou Yi, she shirked again and again.
"How can I manage so many houses?"
"You can find a few more people. The charter is here, take your time, as long as you don't burn down the house, anything happens to your nephew! Zhou Yi patted his chest and said stiffly, "I'll set a salary of four thousand for you, a good income, and a commission!" Cheap outsiders are not as cheap as their own relatives! Aunt, you just say don't do it! ”
The sister-in-law hesitated and hesitated, she really couldn't find a reason to refuse, and she was attracted by the salary that Zhou Yi said, but she was still worried: "Four thousand yuan, is it a little higher?" ”
Look, what a simple and kind man!
"What are you doing at such an age?! Stay at home! You just can't be blessed! Zhou Dajun replied in his usual cold and hard voice.
Normally, at this time, Zhou Ning's would not say any more, but this time, she was unusual, hesitated and hesitated, and finally lowered her eyebrows and blurted out: "There is no one at home, I am in a panic, I want to find something to do." ”
Although Zhou Dajun was machismo, after all, he still knew hot and cold, and he was silent for a while, still stiff and stiff, and said, "Then you can make a call to Yi'er." ”
After speaking, he may feel that his words have changed too quickly, and he can't highlight the momentum of the man's patriarch, so he scolded again, "Qingfu doesn't know how to enjoy, the last life is ......" The words were not finished, and the person had already gone upstairs.
Zhou Ning didn't take to heart the words of Zhou Dajun to maintain his face. She hesitated and hesitated, and finally picked up the worn-out mobile phone and dialed Zhou Yi's number.
"Yi'er, I'm your second uncle."
"Second uncle, what's the matter with you?" Zhou Yi was a little surprised--his second aunt was a rare time to use the phone. He never knew how to be polite, so he asked straight to the point.
"Are you still busy over there? I don't have anything to do at home, go and help. ”
"Aren't you pretty good at home? How good is it to be idle and watch TV, when you have no money, I will send you a red envelope and go out to spend flowers? Zhou Yi looked at the wilderness scenery of Yima Pingchuan and continued, "Second uncle, you haven't traveled before. When, I will pay, you and the second uncle, take a plane out for a spin? ”
Zhou Ning was stunned by Zhou Yi's flickering, and the thoughts in his head were a little shaken, and he almost forgot the original intention of calling, hesitated for a while, and finally said: "I don't have much knowledge, so I won't go out to be ugly." Now it's so chaotic outside, and I heard the news two days ago that the country's plane had an accident again -- I'd better stay at home, don't be old, and finally go out and can't come back. ”
Her voice, with a bright smile, was much more cheerful than what she said.
"I'm bored at home, this bone is rusty, so I'll beg for some work with you, the big boss." Zhou Ningshi also let go of his mind and laughed loudly.
I don't know why, as soon as Zhou Yi heard Zhou Ning's words, he was in a foreign place, so he thought of the thing of making tea, thinking of the hot, white and green, and fragrant tea prepared by Zhou Ningshi every time he went home, a thought suddenly jumped into his mind, and blurted out: "Opposite Dongtian Lake, there is still a house empty - or, second aunt, you go to open a tea shop?" ”
"Tea shop? Some people also buy tea? In Zhou Ning's view, tea is a thing that everyone can do, who will spend money to buy it?
"How can no one buy it?"
"Isn't it all advocating 'green and healthy' now? Tea is made of pure natural grains, delicious and easy to digest, as well as nutrition, which point of health care is not better than anything else? Those starch balls can't be compared to the health products, right? ”
"Think about it, let's boil it with wild mountain spring water, cook it with home-grown grains and tea leaves, and the tea we get is simply the essence of a hundred grains, I don't think there is anything better than this!"
"Moreover, your tea and food are well done, and they are all famous in our town, so don't those people from the city come to eat fresh and special? You, the first tea shop in Qingshan Town, are not distinctive enough? Not only special, healthy, affordable, delicious and delicious, all have ......"
The more Zhou Yi spoke, the more excited he became, and he always felt that there was a lot to be done in the sale of tea; He almost saw the praise of those tourists, the tea shop in full swing, and the smiling face of Zhou Ning......
"Should such a good feature be promoted and shared with so many people?"
"Why didn't you think of it before?" Zhou Yi thought of the joy and patted his head.
