Chapter 32: You at the Table
"Second uncle, are you also coming to the Internet?" Wu Shan turned his head and asked in surprise.
"What kind of network," Zhang Dehe said angrily: "I opened this Internet café." ”
"You drove it?" He was a little puzzled, in Wushan's impression, the eldest uncle and younger brother didn't seem to have such courage, and casually invested in Internet cafes at the beginning of the Internet.
"You still came up with this idea, and you forgot?" Zhang Dehe frowned slightly: "At that time, you said that after you have the Internet, it is a good business to open an Internet café chain." ”
"You've got the chain?" Wu Shan's opinion of him changed greatly: "Yes, second uncle, Shibei should be impressed for three days." ”
Saying that, compared to the thumbs up, I was really happy for him.
"Dididi", suddenly shouted from the computer's speakers.
"Guess!" Midsummer evening sunny day spoke on the Internet.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, let's talk another day." Wu Shan crackled and typed this line of words, and turned off the computer casually.
"How can I have so much money to run a chain?" Zhang Dehe smiled bitterly: "This is something that my brother and I have done, and I still have a loan in the bank." ”
"This line of business must make money, why are you not happy, second uncle." Wu Shan stood up and walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "Why did you recognize me from the back?" ”
"No tricks, don't say that in Wuxian, that is, among the northerners, you sit taller than others." Zhang Dehe threw the cigarette over: "It's been open for three days, and few people will." ”
"It's normal," Wu Shan took China in his hand and played: "When the Three Gorges was founded, wasn't it much more bitter than now?" The cultivation of the market always takes time. ”
Don't look at Zhang Dehe, who looks like a fool. In the past, he followed Chen Shuangshu to sneak around the streets and alleys to promote products.
It's like now, the streets are full of hawkers. Shops are all over the place.
A company has to be attached to the supply and marketing cooperatives, otherwise it will engage in capitalism and speculation.
is also in Wu County, and it can be blatantly promoted. When I went to other counties, I was very weak to talk about my products with a letter of introduction from Wuxian Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
"I'm still a little anxious," Zhang Dehe laughed: "I didn't dare to go to the street for the past two days, for fear of running into people from the bank." I'm embarrassed to go out for dinner, so I hide at home and order takeout. ”
"That's right. Why is Wuxian synchronized with the capital? Wu Shan was puzzled: "Even in the capital, I don't seem to see anyone open an Internet café, this time you took the lead." Hurry up and seize the market. ”
"Then I have to take out a loan," Zhang Dehe said with a bitter face: "My dividends have long been gone." ”
"Huh?" He asked curiously, "You don't know yet?" There is a root server here in Wuxian. ”
I see!
The primary root server seems to be in the suburbs of Beijing, and the specific location is unclear, but it is listed as a state secret.
"Second uncle." The front desk was calling him: "This person wants to surf the Internet." You teach him. ”
"Okay, just come." Zhang Dehe rubbed his hands: "Wait for me, let's eat together when I'm done." ”
"No, you're busy." Wu Shan waved his hand: "I'll go buy a few computers for my grandparents, otherwise they will be quite bored at home." ”
"Can you spend money on that? I'll bring it another day, wholesale is always a lot cheaper than your retail. Zhang Dehe Chong, the young man standing at the front desk beckoned: "Come here, I'll teach you!" ”
In my impression, this person is a little out of tune.
I didn't think about it. As soon as I got into the working state, it was really like that. Explain to customers in a colorful way.
Wu Shan's heart was full of relief, nodded to the little girl at the front desk, and walked out of the Internet café.
The snow falls on the high mountain frost and flattens the ground, the Hongchi Dam is full of snow, and the altitude of Zhaojiaba is estimated to be about 1,000 meters, even if it snows, it will melt when it falls to the ground.
In this era, it still snowed occasionally in the dam in Wuxian County.
In a few years, the global temperature will rise, and it will probably snow in places where the altitude of Hongchi Dam and Mao'er is more than 3,000 meters.
"Sir, are you leaving?" The parking clerk saw him opening the door and asked with a smile on his face.
"yes, what's the matter?" Wu Shan frowned and glanced at it, as if he really didn't know this person: "Or is the parking fee I gave you not enough?" ”
"Enough is enough, it's three dollars a whole day. Do I need a card? Starting at 20 yuan, it's free for the first time. She enthused: "You can use cards in any outdoor parking lot in town. ”
"No!" Wu Shan didn't lift his head, opened the car door and sat in.
The smile on the middle-aged woman's face did not decrease: "Please open the window, I will command you to open it." ”
At first, I ate a bowl of yin rice when I walked from home, but now I am vaguely hungry.
was going to choose a computer for the two old men, but since Zhang Dehe said it, let him buy it.
He opened the door again and waved to the parking officer.
"What's wrong, sir?" The woman was puzzled: "You go directly to the outside to hit the rudder, fall down, and then return to the rudder and go directly out of the car." ”
"No," Wu Shan shook his head, "What's good around here?" Preferably the kind where there are several snacks next to each other. ”
"Yes, yes!" She nodded hurriedly, and pointed forward with her right hand: "That house, the first floor is a shop, and the second floor is full of restaurants, what hot pot, barbecue, stir-fry." ”
It takes more than an hour to drive back here, and it is still settled in the county seat.
"Oh?" When Wushan saw it, he looked like three or four hundred meters: "Thank you, I won't leave first." ”
Tomorrow is the New Year, and today's county is lively.
Fortunately, the sidewalk on the other side of the river was a little empty, and the pedestrians who were hurrying back and forth were hunched their necks and put their hands in their pockets.
Wushan, a young man with a straight back and walking with his hands shaken, seems a little different.
Usually someone might notice him, but no one notices at this time.
Anbu was in the car, but it took only four or five minutes.
Nima, I don't know who started it, it's a two-story house, and it's actually called Huancheng Square.
Opposite is the former Huancheng Middle School, which has now been changed to Wuxian Vocational High School.
In the county, the leading one is naturally Wuzhong, and there are campuses in Zhaojiaba and even Jitouba in the new city.
Not to be outdone, Chengxiang Middle School has been expanding its campus on the opposite hilltop. It's almost time to get to the TV tower.
I don't know that it was a hot head back then, and the Huancheng Middle School founded was relatively chicken, and changing it to a vocational middle school was also a way out.
Ground floor pavement. New Year's goods all over the body, couplets, fruits, melon seeds, and even firecrackers.
The developer is very discerning, opposite is the middle school, parents can come here to treat.
The bridge next to it connects to the South Gate Bay Cave, and it is the first place to come out of the old city.
There are constantly people coming and going in these shops, and the boss waiters who used to greet them warmly have no time to pick up customers.
Stroll up to the second floor. The business of the restaurant is also relatively hot.
Ooh! The entire floor is a restaurant, which is very different from the style below.
There is a welcome standing at the entrance of each shop.
Seeing someone passing by, he bowed slightly: "Sir." Inside please! "Several, please inside!"
The shouts were endless.
I have to say that as a member of Bashu, Wuxian people like spicy flavors. Hot pot is even more favorite.
Looking past from the staircase: Zhang Mazi hot pot fish, Li Erwa hot pot rabbit, Qin's small hot pot. There are seven or eight shops, and hot pot accounts for four or five.
I finally saw a shop that was not a hot pot: a red barrel fish.
"How many gentlemen?" The welcome suddenly smiled.
Wu Shan looked left and right, there was no one around, and then he realized that he was talking to himself.
"Just one person, are you a bucket of fish?" He hadn't eaten in the county seat before, and he didn't know it yet.
"Sir, our Positive Red Barrel Fish is a national chain brand." Seeing that the business was coming, the welcoming girl was in good spirits. A hoarse voice introduced.
"Our head office is still a long way west of Rongcheng, Ya'an, have you heard of it. It's the brand there, which our boss personally introduced in the past. ”
"You see, the middle of the table is hollowed out, and the barrel is standing on it. The bottom of the barrel is a stone that is collected from the Jinsha River and contains stones that are good for the human body, and the stones are heated. ”
As she spoke, the two of them reached an empty table, and she reached out to lift the lid of the bucket.
"The soup we have made is poured on top of these stones, and the dish you want to order is blanched in the soup."
Oh?
Wu Shan looked into the barrel, and all the stones were black.
"Are these stones reused?" He asked with interest.
"How is that possible, sir?" The girl smiled and said, "We joined, mainly because this stone was transported from Ya'an, and of course, there is the formula." ”
"Oh!" Wu Shan sat down and picked up the menu.
Nima, it feels like it's still a hot pot, but in a different way.
He also wondered how the contents of the barrel were heated.
If you look closely, the barrel is just an outer layer, and the inner layer is not sure if it is ceramic or metal, and since there are wires, it is probably an induction cooker that has just been on the market.
Retracting his gaze, Wu Shan drew a tick on the red pot.
"That's right, girl!" Looking up, he saw that someone had changed.
"What do you want to know, sir?" The girl wasn't as good-looking as she was at first, and was a little chubby.
"I wonder if we have a minimum amount here?" Wu Shan raised his eyebrows.
"Wow," the waiter bent down and pointed to the menu, and a smell of alabaster came to his face: "Look, fifteen yuan is this, let's send two catties of fish and side dishes, which is very suitable for you alone." ”
"This side dish is written as a seasonal vegetable, what is it currently given?" Wu Shan remained silent and retreated back.
"Today there are soybean sprouts, Chinese cabbage, oily wheat cabbage, and kelp." The waiter's business is still quite proficient, and he said it casually.
"Okay!" Wushan was not verbose: "Two more servings of mutton, one hairy belly, one yellow-throated, and one loach." ”
As he spoke, the pen quickly ticked off the menu.
"By the way, is there a shrimp slip?" Wu Shan handed her the menu.
"Shrimp slippery? What is that? The waiter asked confusedly.
Nima, it seems that it only existed in the hot pot more than 20 years later.
"Forget it, just ask." Wushan waved his hand.
"Okay!" The waiter happily took the menu and prepared to leave, turned his head and asked, "What do you drink?" ”
"Boiled water," Wu Shan shook his head: "I still have to drive." ”
The food came up quickly, and I don't know when, they turned on the induction cooker and opened the lid of the bucket, and the stones inside were so hot that they felt like they were coming out.
"Sir, please get out of the way!" Holding the basin was a young man, who poured the vegetables into the bucket and made a sizzling sound: "Please use it slowly." ”
The taste is not bad, there is the taste of hot pot, and there is an indescribable fragrance mixed in with it.
In the meantime, he ordered three bowls of rice, and finally he fished out the green onions in the bucket and ate them.
Patting his belly, Wu Shan felt that he was just full, and raised his hand and shouted: "Settle the account!" ”
"Sir, it's twenty-seven dollars and five cents." This time it was an older woman who skillfully counted it out with a few clicks on a calculator: "Erase the change, and I will charge you twenty-seven dollars." ”
"Good!" Wu Shan didn't say much, and put his hand in his pocket.
Oops, his face changed color right away and he forgot to bring the money!
Seeing that the woman was still beside him, he looked at her with a wry smile.
I can't take this look away.
The eyebrows, eyes, and nose are so familiar!
"Mustache!" With a flash of inspiration in his head, he blurted out.
"You are?" The woman's face turned red and full of confusion.
"I'm the Monkey King!" Wu Shan slapped his thigh: "We have been at the same table for three years in elementary school, you forgot!" ”
"Huh? It's you! The mustache smiled sheepishly.
When she was a child, the two shared a table, and her lips were often black, so Xiao Wushan gave her a nickname.
"By the way, your name is Yuan ...... Yuan ......" He frowned, a little unable to remember.
"Yuan Liping!" She laughed, "What's your name?" I always remember that your name is Sun Monkey, or did I give it to you? ”
"My name is Wushan," he asked with a smile, "how's that?" Business is fine, the port here is good. ”
"The business is still so-so, and I can't make a lot of money." She shook her head: "Industry and commerce, taxation, fire protection, and sanitation, come and go, and work for them." What about you, what are you doing now? I haven't seen it since. ”
Without hearing an answer, she looked up strangely, only to see Wu Shan answering the phone, his face full of solemnity. (To be continued......)
