Chapter 6: Selling Hair
Wang Guizhi stopped, looked Xu Jingsi up and down, and said in surprise, "Xu Jing? ”
Xu Jingsi smiled and nodded, indicating that it was herself.
Wang Guizhi was wearing a coat with small flowers, and she was not slender at the age of thirty, but she was much thinner than Xu Jing, so she stood in front of her, and she had a sense of superiority, but at this moment, she looked at Xu Jingsi's neat ponytail in disbelief, and asked after a while, "Why are you cleaning up so neatly today?" ”
Xu Jingsi smiled at her, "There's something wrong, I'll go first!" With that, she strode away!
"Ah...... Oh! Wang Guizhi almost didn't react, how did she feel so polite?
She quietly looked at Xu Jingsi's back, her heart was full of surprise, is this Xu Jing? Why is it like a different person, didn't you have to roll up your sleeves and fight with Yu Sen last night!
Shouldn't she be a shrew?
But the person I saw today did not have the shadow of a shrew at all, although she was still that chubby body, but she exuded a sense of calm and relaxation, which was even better than Yu Sen's wife, Teacher He........
Thinking of this, Wang Guizhi was taken aback by the thoughts in his heart........ As the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change, so she doesn't believe that Xu Jing, a shrew, can conjure flowers!
Xu Jingsi didn't know what Wang Guizhi was thinking, her attention was on the small shops on both sides of the road, in the city, although it was only 1984, there were already many private shops on this street.
Barber shop, grain and oil shop, shoe repair ...... The small street is quite lively, but out of this small street is the main road, remember that there are supply and marketing cooperatives, department stores, bookstores, guest houses and so on......
"Girl, do you have a hot hair, you look good for twenty yuan!"
Just walked to the door of a barber shop, a woman in her thirties, permed curly, and fashionably dressed shouted at Xu Jingsi.
Xu Jingsi took out her pocket without a penny, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, she also wants to be beautiful, but she also has to have beautiful capital!
She shook her head at the woman, "No need! ”
Xu Jingsi had just taken two steps when the woman's voice came from behind her, "Hey, do you sell your hair, like yours, I can give you fifteen yuan!" ”
Hair can be sold for money!
Xu Jingsi's heart was surging all of a sudden, it was just timely rain!
"Fifteen?" Xu Jingsi stopped, her heart was pounding, but her tone was light and light, "You only gave fifteen, and I didn't want to sell it at the department store two days ago when I offered me twenty!" ”
"Twenty can't be given," the woman's eyes sparkled, "can you cut the roots, if you can cut the roots, I'll give you eighteen!" ”
"Forget it!" Xu Jingsi pretended not to care and pretended to turn around, "I've been raising it for so many years, and I only gave eighteen yuan, and I have to cut it!" ”
"Hey, don't go," the woman stepped forward to stop her, "how much did you say?" ”
Xu Jingsi pondered, "If Qi Gen cuts, at least twenty-two yuan!" ”
If you can ask for two more pieces, it's almost two pounds of meat!
"Twenty!" The woman gritted her teeth and said, "I'll leave you a little more, I can't do more, to be honest, I can earn you five yuan!" ”
Xu Jingsi pretended to be entangled for a long time, and finally responded!
Sitting on the chair in the barbershop, Xu Jingsi looked at the long black hair in the mirror, feeling reluctant and guilty, how many good things people have to eat to raise so well, she is good, and she took her hair for money as soon as she came.
The woman with the haircut combed her hair, tied it again, then grabbed a handful of hair, clicked the scissors and cut it off at the root!
Xu Jingsi's heart also chuckled, and said in her heart, girl, I'm sorry for you, I have to eat, I can't be so scoundrel like you, right!
As the long hair was cut off, the face of the person in the mirror slowly changed, Xu Jing used to have a sneering face, looking mean and unreasonable, but now the expression on her face softened, Xu Jingsi suddenly found that this girl was not ugly, with willow eyebrows, double eyelids, and big eyes....... It's just that the skin is dry, and it looks very unhealthy and not spiritual!
"Hey, you're quite suitable for short hair, you're much more energetic than before, I'll fix it for you a little, or give you a fashionable haircut?"
Xu Jing thought about it and said, fashion doesn't need money!
"Just fix it up."
"Great!"
Her hair was quickly repaired, and Xu Jingsi left with twenty yuan in her pocket, holding the twenty yuan, she felt a sense of guilt in her heart...... She silently said to herself, if you don't take it as an example, you must not take it as an example!
Xu Jingsi walked all the way, looked all the way, asked restaurants, grain stores, supply and marketing cooperatives, department stores, and even Xinhua Bookstore, and she went to ask, but she had no plans to ask for anyone!
She didn't know how many roads she walked, she only knew that there were no less than twenty stop-and-go questions along the way, at noon, she stayed in a small noodle restaurant, and in the afternoon she planned to go to the market to see, not to mention the strength of the work, even if it was cleaning, she did not hesitate to do it!
asked for a bowl of shredded chicken noodles, the proprietress sent it, she picked up the noodles and ate them slowly, a bowl of shredded chicken noodles eight cents, but the ingredients are quite sufficient, and the taste is also good, which not only satisfies her taste buds, but also fills her stomach!
There weren't too many people eating in the noodle shop, she looked outside, the location was not too good, there were no factories, no schools, except for a guest house next to it...... However, the couple who opened the noodle shop looked to be sixty years old, both of which were at this age, and the business was about the same......
Thinking about it, Xu Jingsi suddenly laughed self-deprecatingly, she is about to have a problem even eating now, and she has this idle worry about others!
To be honest, she regretted that she didn't ask Qiao Yu for the twenty yuan last night, if she asked for it, plus the twenty yuan in her hand, would she be able to set up a stall selling meat sandwich buns?
There was a morning market on the old street further north of the machine factory, and when she came, she passed by there, and there were quite a lot of people. There are fried fritters in the morning market, there are those who sell tofu brain, there are pancakes, there are those who sell porridge and soy milk, and there are those who sell green vegetables.
Twenty or thirty dollars is enough to buy an old tricycle, and you can do it by buying a few other things...... She loves food, she likes to study food, and she can make it, and the meat bun couldn't be simpler.
Hey, it's useless to regret it...... A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind, can't you do business for a dozen yuan?
