Chapter Twenty-Seven: Selling Mooncakes

After Liang Xia reminded him that as soon as the three months arrived, the man hurriedly talked to the soft general manager about the issue of regularization and five insurances and one housing fund. Mr. Soft didn't embarrass him, and signed without hesitation with a stroke of the pen, and the man looked at the positive order and breathed a sigh of relief. However, the soft general manager pointed out that the salary after the regularization should be paid according to the performance appraisal and performance. The man muttered in his heart: We don't have any actual business at all now, how can this be assessed?

In the blink of an eye, in September, the assessment for the third quarter came out, and unsurprisingly, the performance was not completed, which can be predicted; What was not predicted was that the company would offset the wages in September with a part of the products shipped in the account; What I didn't expect was that the barter product was moon cakes. As soon as we understood, we knew that the company had done some advertisements for nostalgic food last year, and had been delaying the balance payment. Zhonghai Media is really a chicken thief, and actually came up with a way to use moon cakes to top part of the salary.

Colleagues complained, many colleagues did not receive it at all, and some directly sent it to friends to deal with, but the man was reluctant, he discussed with Jiajia, and prepared to seize the last week of the Mid-Autumn Festival to sell moon cakes, how much can be exchanged for cash. After many colleagues found out, they gave their share to the man, and the man had more than 50 boxes of mooncakes in his hands at once.

After getting off work, the man and Jiajia went everywhere to find places where it was possible to collect moon cakes, food stores, supermarkets, and schools, but food safety was related to health, and these units still didn't dare to buy and eat them. At this time, there are only two days left before the Mid-Autumn Festival, and if they can't be sold, these mooncakes will become worthless.

After getting off work, the man went to the store to sell mooncakes, and after being refused, he sat down on the side of the road stupidly. At this time, a group of red men and green women walked over.

“…… yes, let's go to the boys and girls, the show is not bad over there. ”

"Pull it down, it's not as good as it was back then, and now it's very boring, go to K-o

E bar, newly opened, is on Sanlitun South Street, which is much more fun than North Street. ”

"Well, let's make an appointment first, or the weekend will coincide with the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there will definitely be no place." After speaking, several people chattered and waved to take a taxi and walked away.

The man had an idea, yes, the bar may use mooncakes for promotion during the Mid-Autumn Festival, why don't I ask? So he hurriedly got on the bus to Sanlitun.

When he arrived at Sanlitun, he came to North Street first. The first one was "Boys and Girls", and the man pushed the door in and asked, "Hello, anyone?" ”

A girl came up to me and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

The man hurriedly greeted him with a smile and said, "Hello, I want to ask if you want mooncakes these days?" ”

The girl looked the man up and down and asked strangely, "What do you mean?" ”

The man explained: "That's right, I'm from China Overseas Media, one of our customers offset our advertising money, bartered and gave us a large number of moon cakes, we can't use them up for the holiday, I want to see if you will use it in the Mid-Autumn Festival." ”

The girl thought for a while, turned her head and shouted inside: "Manager Li, Manager Li, there is a moon cake seller here, come and see." With the shouting, a middle-aged woman walked out and looked at the man, who told him the cause and effect again.

After listening to the man's words, Manager Li smiled and said: "Young man, we are a bar, it is normal to buy wine and send fruit plates and drinks, there is no moon cake promotion, a table of guests is coming, and one person takes a box of moon cakes before leaving, it's not like words, hehe." ”

The man's eyes rolled, and he quickly took over the words: "Manager Li, I don't think that's appropriate, we can change the way, the guests who come, send a few pieces per table, cut it into four small pieces with a knife, and serve it like a pastry. After saying these words, the man noticed that Manager Li didn't speak for the time being, as if he was thinking about the man's idea.

The man hit the railway while it was hot: "In order to save costs, you can also send the first plate, and then sell it for ten or twenty yuan, and you will hardly lose money," After speaking, the man hurriedly brought up the samples he brought, "You can also take a look," the man pointed to the sign with his finger, "Miss Food is one of the largest food companies in China, and the quality of the product is fine," After speaking, he reversed the box, "You look at the production date again, just these few days, there will be no problem, you taste it first." After speaking, he took out a piece and handed it to Manager Li.

Manager Li took a few bites with the girl, exchanged glances, seemed to feel good, and nodded.

The man continued: "We don't want to make money, we just don't want to watch the mooncakes waste like this, so this box of mooncakes with an original price of 98 yuan, let's sell it for 30 yuan, just don't waste it." ”

Manager Li fiddled with the moon cake box and said to the man, "Wait a minute, let's discuss." After saying that, he went into the back room.

After a while, Manager Li walked out with a man who looked like a boss and said to the man: "That's it, you leave us 5 boxes first, and if the effect is good, we will contact you again." ”

The man said apologetically: "Manager Li, we are bartering, you'd better buy enough at one time, it's not much, I can't toss this thing, I'm too tired, I'll come once, you can only go to the mall to buy it if you need it again." ”

Manager Li glanced at the man, he thought about it, and said to Manager Li: "Let's come to 10 boxes, there is not much money in total." With that, he left.

The man came out of the "boys and girls" with a 50% deposit, and he couldn't help but be excited, and he went to the second bar "KMAX" with confidence.

"Anyone?" The man asked.

"Who?" I heard an authentic Beijing dialect coming from.

"Hello, I want to ask you about the mooncakes used in the Mid-Autumn Festival promotion here?"

"What mooncakes?" With these words, a girl with dyed yellow hair walked out.

When the man saw it, he was shocked: she had blond hair, a nose ring, tattoos on her left arm and right leg, and a chain on her exposed navel.

The man quickly withdrew his eyes and said with a smile: "That's the case, our company advertises nostalgia food, and the customer gave us a batch of moon cakes to offset the advertising money, and we can't digest it ourselves, I want to ask you if you need to use moon cakes for promotion in the Mid-Autumn Festival?" The price is very cheap, the 98 yuan mooncake is now only sold for 30 yuan a box, and the production date is also recent......"

"What a mess," the yellow-haired girl looked impatient, "I'm most annoyed by eating moon cakes, don't don't." ”

The man just wanted to continue, but Huang Mao was already about to turn around and leave, and the man was in a hurry, pretending to be inexplicable and said, "Hey? Then why did Sister Li, who was 'boys and girls' just now, have 10 boxes for promotion? ”

"What?" Huang Mao immediately became alert, "...... Boys and girls? Sister Li? Li Silan? ”

The man nodded.

"Do you know Li Silan?"

The man didn't answer positively: "No, just now Sister Li asked for 10 boxes and said that she was going to do a promotion, and they planned to ......" The man said the promotion plan he had just designed again.

The yellow-haired girl didn't seem to be interested in the promotion plan, she didn't wait for the man to finish, turned her head and shouted to a young man in the bar: "Kun'er, the 'boy and girl' do the Mid-Autumn Festival promotion, the grandson has a lot of eyes." ”

Kun'er in the bar said while wiping the table: "You can't let the girls do it, let's do it, hurry up." ”

The yellow-haired woman turned her head to the man and said, "How much did you buy?" ”

"10 boxes."

"We'll have 10 boxes too."

The man hurriedly took a pen and wrote it down in the notebook.

Before going out, the yellow-haired girl chased out: "Dude, how can this moon cake be promoted?" ”

The man hurried back and told her in detail.

Men and men sell door-to-door, eyes are also alive, look at the interest of 30 yuan a box, no interest in 20 yuan, walk down, half of the bars have bought a few boxes of promotion, the man looks at the small book, has sold 38 boxes. Looking at his phone again, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening, and he excitedly slapped his small book and ran to the bus stop.

Half of the work was done, and the man and Jiajia were having dinner while excitedly discussing their next steps. Jiajia asked, "What about the rest?" ”

The man pulled a few mouthfuls of rice and said, "I'll ask Brother Yu to borrow a tricycle in a while, and pull the remaining dozen boxes back, we are downstairs in the vegetable market, and we will definitely be able to sell it in one day." ”

Jiajia nodded, just about to eat, suddenly remembered something and asked, "How do you pull it?" Do you still want to deliver to Sanlitun? ”

"That's right." The man also put down his chopsticks. The man has rented a small truck, tomorrow at 8 o'clock to deliver the goods, a circle down, how to do it in the afternoon, if you turn around and go to the company to pull the goods, from the Sanyuan Bridge back to the east gate of the Olympic Stadium, basically there is no time to sell things. The man was worried.

Jiajia thought for a while and said, "That's it, you go to deliver the goods, I'll go to your company tomorrow to pull the goods, and I'll sell them first." ”

The man looked at Jiajia suspiciously and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Jiajia patted her chest and said, "No problem, I used to ride a tricycle when I was a child, and it won't be difficult for me." ”

"You can't move a dozen boxes of mooncakes?"

Jiajia thought for a while and said: "Your company, I'll ask the security guard to help me, and I'll ask Brother Yu to help me when I go to the community, they are in the vegetable market, so it shouldn't be troublesome." ”

The man nodded and said, "You send a few boxes of moon cakes to the eldest brother, thank you well." ”

"Hmm." Jiajia nodded and said, "Hurry up and rest after eating, I'm going to be tired tomorrow." ”

Early on Saturday morning, the two of them got up early and acted separately, the man went to deliver the goods, and Jiajia rode Brother Yu's tricycle on the road. The man was relieved that Jiajia was not at ease, and urged the master to hurry up, hurry up and hurry, and it was already 1 o'clock in the afternoon after the delivery of the goods. After the delivery master finished delivering, he left directly, saying that he would not send the man back to the east gate of the Olympic Stadium, and the man could only get angry and had to take the bus home by himself. When he arrived at the community, the man saw a bunch of people surrounding Jiajia from a distance, and Jiajia greeted him with a smile and was selling hard.

"How's it going?" The man walked over and asked in a low voice while helping to sort out the mooncake box.

Jiajia was busy looking for money and ignored him, "Looking for you for thirty yuan, uncle will go slowly." ”

After sending the uncle away, Jiajia took a breath, lowered her head and flipped through the small bag hanging on her chest, spread it in front of the man's face, and whispered: "Look at it, it's almost half." ”

The man looked at the pile of change in his bag, gave a thumbs up to Jiajia and said, "My wife is really good, and she was born as a street vendor." ”

Jiajia rolled her eyes at the man and said, "Do you know how tired you are?" I haven't even drunk a sip of water right now. ”

The man hurriedly said, "You drink, don't be so economical." ”

"Drink your size, who will watch the stall when I'm gone."

The man suddenly realized that the two of them had no experience, they were busy early in the morning, and they didn't prepare anything, Jiajia watched the stall alone, and didn't eat or drink.

The man hugged Jiajia distressedly and said, "It's hard work, I'm watching, you go buy something to eat." ”

Jiajia nodded, rubbed her hands, and prepared to go to the market to buy water to drink.

Jiajia limped around and left, and the man saw that Jiajia had large abrasions on the knee and calf of her right leg, which Jiajia covered with toilet paper, but the blood still seeped out, and after drying, it stuck to her leg.

"Jiajia, what's wrong with your leg?" The man asked worriedly.

Jiajia waved her hand and said, "It's okay, I accidentally fell while riding a tricycle." ”

The man said distressed and angry: "Why are you so careless? You said you'd ride a three-wheeler, but I shouldn't have asked you to pick it up. ”

Jiajia said with an aggrieved face: "I can ride, but Brother Yu's three-wheeled wheel is too difficult to ride, and it is heavier after loading moon cakes, so it is even more difficult to ride, and I accidentally fell down when I turned a corner." ”

The man stepped forward and touched Jiajia's leg and said, "Forget it, you go to the hospital to bandage it, I'll sell it myself." ”

Jiajia was relieved: "It's okay, the blood is coagulated, it's not bad for a while, let's go after selling." ”

Although the man was distressed, he looked at a large pile of moon cakes, and he really couldn't take care of it alone, so he didn't insist anymore.

The two of them greeted each other vigorously, and the people who came to buy vegetables would look at the two young people curiously, and everyone who stepped forward to ask, Jiajia would introduce them to them with a smile. Because the nostalgic food brand is okay, and the price is very low, you don't have to worry too much about buying a box of moon cakes for one or two hundred yuan, so many people bought it easily, and at 8 o'clock in the evening, the moon cakes of the man and Jiajia were sold out.

After returning the tricycle, the man quickly took Jiajia to the clinic next to him to bandage the wound, and the two of them didn't care about eating, so they went home happily, closed the door and began to count the money. Jiajia stood on the bed barefoot, held the bag high above her head, and shouted: "Count the money!" "There was an uproar, and the colorful tickets, five, ten, and twenty, were scattered one after another. The man quickly licked and foamed at the mouth, and sorted them out one by one.

After excitedly cleaning up, there were two thousand and thirty pieces in total. Jiajia took a thick wad of change, laughed happily, she raised her hand, sprinkled the money into the air again, and said: "Rich, we are rich!" ”

The man blamed Jiajia and hurriedly went to pick up the money again. After retidying, he handed it to Jiajia and said, "Don't sprinkle, are you tired?" He slapped Jiajia's leg.

Jiajia groaned and covered her knees in pain.

The man hurriedly crawled over and asked, "What's wrong, it still hurts?" ”

Jiajia waved her hand and punched the man and said, "You don't have long eyes, it hurts me to death." ”

The man hurriedly came over and gently stroked Jiajia's wound.

"It's so hard today, it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, we must celebrate." Jiajia suggested.

The man nodded and said, "Well, it's a must, let's go for supper later, how about a skewer?" ”

"I know I eat skewers, I don't eat them."

"What to eat?"

"Let's eat hot pot, there is a hot girl in the mountain city over there in Dadu Park, there are a lot of people every day, let's go there."

The man shook his head helplessly and said, "Ahem, you're really a hot pot head, okay." ”

Jiajia smiled and got into the man's arms, and suddenly, she raised her head and asked the man, "It's bad, do we still have mooncakes?" ”

The man looked at Jiajia in surprise and said, "No, it's all sold?" ”

"So what do we eat? Are we going to have a Mid-Autumn Festival too? ”

The man patted his head and said, "Ouch, I forgot to leave a box for myself, so why don't I buy some?" ”

Jiajia hurriedly shook her head and said, "Forget it, we just sell moon cakes, and we just sold them out after all the hard work, so it's not cost-effective to buy them now." After speaking, he lay down on the bed relaxedly, waved his hand and said, "Don't eat it, when you eat hot pot for a while, you will have two sesame baked cakes, pretending to be moon cakes." ”

The man laughed.

The two of them snuggled up in bed, resting with their eyes closed. The tired and sleepy two people had not eaten the hot pot yet, and they had already fallen asleep unconsciously.
