Chapter 9 Planning

Finally walked out of the main gate of the Forbidden City with the crowd, it was already more than 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and the three people were a little tired, especially Hong Tao, who not only had to carry a hiking bag, but also often had to let Katie snuggle or carry it. In order to show his friendship as a landlord, Hong Tao decided to give some blood and invited the two sisters to go to the front door to gather in Delhi to rub a roast duck.

When he told the sisters about this decision, they didn't have to listen to it a second time, they immediately understood Hong Tao's intentions, and raised their hands and feet in approval. Hong Tao sometimes wondered if the two sisters were deliberately hiding their Chinese level in order to trick themselves into being tour guides who didn't spend money, because they didn't understand the old Qianmen train station three times with them, but as soon as they said roast duck, they could immediately say Quanjude, a more tongue-twisting Chinese name.

"Erin, what do you think of him? I think it's pretty good, at least I don't hate him, and if I had to choose, I'd rather choose him. When Hong Tao went to the bathroom, his sister Katie suddenly reversed her domineering and rebellious demeanor, approached Erin, and whispered.

"What's the urgency just one day, we have a whole month, no matter what, we can't lose to that slut, he's Sam's landlord, we can't mess around, let's get familiar with it for a few days, I've heard that Chinese men are very conservative, and we don't know if he has a girlfriend or not, although it's a game, but it can't be too out of line, in case Sam knows it, we're dead." Erin was no longer the kind of good girl at this time, the corners of her mouth were curved, and she looked very cunning.

"But Sam is on vacation, and we're at home every day, so it's hard for us to act." Katie seemed more innocent at this time.

"Shhhh Erin deserves to be her sister, while chatting and staring at the direction of the bathroom, when she saw Hong Tao's figure, she immediately pushed her sister away, and immediately became the foreign girl who liked to take pictures around with a camera.

Hong Tao ate more than 300 yuan in one meal, which was almost equivalent to the level of more than 1,000 yuan in later generations according to the per capita wage level at that time. Looking at Erin and Katie's bellies that are not obviously swollen, Hong Tao really admires the ability of Europeans and Americans to eat meat, the two sisters eat oily duck meat, without pancakes, and do not smear sweet noodle sauce, just stuff it into their mouths one by one, and then spread the sweet noodle sauce into the small baked cakes, add cucumber strips and shredded green onions, and eat them as sandwiches.

I don't know if Lu Dao is tired of eating or playing, on the way back, Katie didn't embarrass Hong Tao too much, but just hugged Hong Tao's arm and slept all the way in the subway. After arriving home smoothly, the two sisters were blasted back to Sam's house, Hong Tao plugged in the door, turned on the computer, found the love love action movie album, and tired the five girls once, no, a whole day of harassment of big white legs, small buttocks and broad minds, it was really painful and happy.

After a week, Hong Tao took Erin and Katie to the Summer Palace, the Old Summer Palace, Badaling, the Ming Tombs, the Temple of Earth, the Temple of Heaven, Guozijian, Lama Temple and other attractions that Hong Tao could come up with in Beijing.

Even though Hong Tao was young and energetic, he was a little overwhelmed by the week-long journey, and after returning from the Great Wall the day after the last day, Hong Tao immediately asked Sam to tell his two precious daughters that he would hang up the battle card for at least three days! At this time, Hong Tao discovered the difference between carnivores and herbivores, the two American girls P had nothing to do, they were jumping around, and his seven-foot man's legs and stomachs were about to turn tendons.

Said to be resting, in fact, Hong Tao slept for a long time, and then took the bait soaked in fish scales and water to the back of the sea, he wanted to try whether the bait that had been put for 25 days would be invalid, although there were two foreign beauties accompanying him every day, but Hong Tao had not yet got carried away, these baits were his future.

The results of the test made Hong Tao very happy, although the bait has been dried, but after sprinkling water and re-mixing, there is no obvious difference in the effect, the carp should never be on the grass carp, and the crucian carp should not be on the carp. So far, Hong Tao has basically determined that there must be a special substance on the scales, they have a very strong attraction effect on fish, and this substance does not volatilize or volatilizes very slowly, at least within 25 days, it can be used in the case of simple sealing at room temperature, and the effect is not reduced.

And after this small month of testing, the fish scales concocted about dozens of liters of water, divided into different soaking time periods, but until the most lucrative, the effect of the fish scales has not weakened, which shows that the substance content of the fish scales is very high, should not be used up in the short term, in this way, Hong Tao has more confidence in opening a fishing tackle shop, as long as those baits have passed the 2-month shelf life test, their own business plan can be officially implemented.

If you just have bait, you can't open a fishing tackle shop, a fishing tackle shop, you have to have some fishing tackle, you can't put all the bait on the counter, then it becomes a fish food store. Where to purchase fishing gear, this is really difficult to pour Hongtao, we can't get the goods at the sales price of the manufacturer, there is still a place to find the wholesale price of fishing gear, and this place is not too far from Beijing, a little further east from Tongzhou District, it is Hebei Dachang ** Autonomous County, where there is the largest fishing tackle city in the northern region, there are many fishing gear manufacturers set up wholesale counters.

Hong Tao often went where to buy fishing gear in later generations, although it costs oil and effort, it is not cheaper than buying in the city, but there are more types to choose from, and the bargaining price is also a kind of fun to buy fishing gear, and it is also a kind of bragging B capital to be able to buy the same equipment at a cheaper price than others.

With the supply of goods, and the special effects bait that others don't have, half of the conditions for opening a store are met, and what is the other half? The other half is that you need a front room, and this door face room also needs to have location requirements. According to Hong Tao's wishes, he had two choices, the first was to find a suitable front room on the shore of Houhai to use as a storefront, so that it was closer to his home and there were more anglers nearby, which would soon help him make the reputation of the fishing tackle shop famous;

The second is to go to the Guanyuan Market and rent a small store to operate. Guanyuan Market is in Xicheng District, near the southeast corner of the Guanyuan overpass at the northwest earring bend. Its full name should be called "Guanyuan Flowers, Birds, Fish and Insects Market", which is the largest and most popular flower, bird, fish and insect market in Beijing since the reform and opening up.

Speaking of flowers, birds, fish and insects market, this should be the unique culture of Beijing and Tianjin, as early as the Qing Dynasty, Tianqiao and Longfu Temple have two famous flowers, birds, fish and insects market, which sell some gadgets. For example, all kinds of birds, songworms, goldfish, flowers and their derivatives, at that time the old Beijing and Tianjin gentlemen like to play these things, if you go out in the morning if you don't mention the 2 bird cages, or in the winter you don't carry a gourd in your arms, it is very unfashionable and unsociable, when sitting in the teahouse drinking tea and chatting, you and others sit together have nothing to talk about, a bit like almost every family now has a puppy to raise.

In addition, these small birds, crickets, small goldfish or something, Beijing is not produced locally, most of them have to be sold from all over the world, so there is demand, there is a market, when the revolution ended, many people who like these old Beijing things began to quietly drum up these things, and gradually formed a climate, turned into a free market, specializing in selling these things.

Fishing gear, you say that it is a stationery and sports supplies, but it is rarely sold in large shopping malls, and it is estimated that the sales are too small and too professional, so it is slowly gathered in the Guanyuan market. In the greenhouse of the market, there are more than 10 small faces, which are specialized in selling fishing gear, where the anglers gather the most, but where the idle faces are difficult to find, a Luo Bu and a pit, all full of it.
