0007, the boy sells tea eggs
In the courtyard, on a small iron stove, there were about a dozen eggs boiling, the water in the pot was black, it looked like boiling tea eggs, there was a boy and a girl around the iron stove, staring at the pot with wide eyes, the little face was full of anticipation, and the corner of the girl's mouth still had a trace of sparkling saliva, and the throat made a strange sound from time to time.
Zhao Bawang, what if you can't cook the kind of taste that is said on TV?
Then it's cheaper for you, Zhao Wang patted his forehead depressedly, he cooked it several times, and the taste was never as good as described in the TV, which made him a little distressed, and he thoroughly understood the true meaning of the sentence 'It is shallow on paper, and you must bow to it'.
Zhao Bawang, what do you think of me? Do you think I'm a pig? Stuff all the bad food into my stomach, don't take you like this, the girl stood up straight, and roared with her hands on her waist;
The boy looked at the girl with a bewildered and dumbfounded face, and then his face darkened.
Just as the boy was about to speak, the girl suddenly made a big turn, grinning happily, "It's okay to boil a few more pots, you don't have to worry about wasting it, I can eat as much as I want."
After the girl finished speaking, she didn't forget to pat her little belly, but that happy and proud appearance almost made King Zhao vomit blood, and his forehead was full of black lines.
I didn't expect that when I Ye Xi could eat more than a dozen eggs one day, this luxurious life was the first time, and when I became rich in the future, I would definitely boil hundreds of eggs every day and put them by my side, and I could eat as much as I wanted, the girl sighed, waved her small fist, and said as if she swore an oath;
In the previous sentence, King Chu couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, and wanted to say a few heart-warming words, but in the girl's later sentence, King Zhao's body suddenly stiffened and stunned.
King Zhao gasped, "Girl, can you still have some luck?"
The girl raised her eyebrows, thought for a while, leaned forward, put her hands behind her back, narrowed her eyes, stared at the young man and asked, "Zhao Bawang, you said that a person lives not to eat, is it to become an immortal and a god?"
Zhao Wang paused for a moment, cut the gold and cut the iron, and said in a firm tone, in addition to eating, there are many meaningful things that can be done, such as .......
For example, to make money to marry a daughter-in-law, a young girl interrupts the young man's words and teases;
King Zhao said with a dark face, "This is also a very meaningful thing."
After that, all the money you earn will have to be handed over to me and let me keep it, the girl stared at the boy for a moment, and said undoubtedly and very domineeringly;
Seeing the girl's natural appearance, the young man asked angrily;
Do you really think I'm going to marry you for free?" the girl slanted at him and shouted;
King Zhao's head hurts, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, he really wants to know, this girl has to see from there, he King Zhao wants to marry her, can't he change it?
Ye Xi, I really didn't pay attention to you, and I didn't want to marry you as a daughter-in-law, the young man took a deep breath and explained very seriously;
Hehe, do you believe what you say? The old man, who stood behind the young man, pouted;
That is, Zhao Bawang, what you said yourself, do you believe it? The girl was slightly stunned and said fiercely;
Old man, you go to the side for me, if you have nothing to do, just lie on the bed, wander around outside, be careful that the old man of Hades finds you, King Zhao turned his head to look at the old man, and only felt that this old guy was very bad.
Some people have weak hearts and want to open the topic, what a cowardice with a colored heart and no color, the old man glanced at him, quickly smoked two puffs of dry tobacco, and said disdainfully;
That is, one cowardly, and the girl also followed with contempt;
"Hehe, it's good if you're happy,"
King Zhao took a deep breath and ignored it directly, as the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat four hands, the same, it is difficult to say that two mouths are not, plus this dead girl is eccentric, and this old ghost has lived a lot of age, every word can make him jump to his feet, he used to fight with the old man alone, at least he could have a draw, and now with this little girl, the weighing pan is naturally skewed, but it is oblique to the old man.
Joining forces, he still has room to turn around?
However, King Zhao didn't speak, which didn't mean that the little girl and the old man would let him go, but they would let him go after he was ridiculed fiercely.
Seeing the young man holding his head in his hands and squatting aside with a depressed face, the girl and the old man couldn't help laughing happily, only the young man gritted his teeth alone, some eggs hurt, an old man and a little girl joined hands, really didn't understand, the little girl spoke very fiercely, and the old man would pick up a dry tobacco stick and smash people.
Zhao Wang continued to cook his tea eggs with a sullen head, if he boiled it once or twice that day and couldn't cook the kind of taste that was said on TV, Zhao Wang would put it down and do other things, after all, it was too much to cook on this hot day, and the girl couldn't finish it, and the next day it would have a peculiar smell, and it might hurt her stomach, if the taste was authentic, maybe this eccentric girl could really eat thirty or forty, but he couldn't afford to raise this way of eating.
A few days ago, he bought several tons of coal and spent a lot of money, and the money on his body was suddenly a lot less, and he had a feeling of unsteadyness, and he couldn't even sleep well.
In the words of the sage, it is reasonable to go to the world, in the words of a little girl, it is difficult to move an inch without money, even if you can't even stand up to the waist, you will have no confidence to speak.
The boy has experienced it himself, for example, he used to hardly have the courage to go to Qibao Street to buy things, buy salt, soy sauce or something, all in a haberdashery store a few hundred meters away, or from a small shop in the countryside, as for the clothes he was wearing, all of them were bought from the countryside, and he didn't dare to enter the clothes stores on Qibao Street.
The boy's life was very regular, not very complicated, and after four or five days, he earned nearly two or three hundred yuan, and spent dozens of dollars to buy some eggs and corn kernels to carry back.
Later, after boiling two or three tea eggs, he was finally satisfied, the next morning, he boiled a hundred tea eggs on his back, with a small iron stove in his hand, followed the little girl to Qibao Street where the most pedestrians, is in a three-way intersection, but also the only three-way intersection in the town, here, there is even a square, is not very big, but two or three hundred people can still be accommodated, behind the two squares are an extremely luxurious five-story building, one is a department store, King Zhao has been there, and the first floor of the other one is to sell electrical appliances, and he doesn't know what the upper floors are for.
And the big screen was installed in the department store, but it was still very early, before eight o'clock, and the big screen that had been repaired was not playing.
The little girl put down the two small bamboo chairs she was screwing and held the back basket for King Zhao, after King Zhao put the back basket down, he looked around, this small square at the foot of the department store, every morning there will be more than a dozen people come here to set up stalls to sell breakfast, for the location, everyone has reached a certain consensus in their hearts, each fixed one, no one will occupy it, King Zhao will naturally not do this kind of stupid thing to offend people, he has been in this small square for a few months, for who is in that position, He remembered it clearly, and in the end he found a location that was neither remote nor in the way, a small stove and a small pot that could only hold a hundred eggs, so naturally it didn't take much place.
The first time to do other business, King Zhao was very apprehensive.
A few minutes after he sat down, a slightly chubby middle-aged man in a white T-shirt pushed a small three-wheeler into view.
"Zhao boy, why did you come so early today? This screen won't play until eight o'clock, you forget...... ," the middle-aged man saw Queen Zhao, paused slightly, and then smiled happily;
However, before he finished speaking, he froze, his eyes staring at the pot of eggs in front of King Zhao.
King Zhao smirked, scratched his head, and said, "Uncle Wang."
The middle-aged man put down the three wheels in his hand, strode forward, and said with an incredible face;
Well, I just learned to do it, come! Uncle Wang, can you help me see if this tastes okay, King Zhao pulled a small plastic bag from the back basket, put one in a very slippery way, and handed it to the middle-aged.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment, but he was not polite, and after taking the tea eggs, he peeled off the egg skin by dividing it by two.
"Yes, it's delicious, your egg tastes really good," Uncle Wang looked surprised after taking a bite, this egg is delicious, quite delicious.
Xiao Zhao, did you make this according to the method mentioned on TV? The middle-aged man surnamed Wang took another bite and asked curiously;
"Yes!"
Hearing the middle-aged man say this, the big stone hanging in King Zhao's heart was finally put down, however, seeing that the middle-aged man was eating so well, Ye Xi's eyes straightened, and he quietly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"It seems that it is good to study more, but you kid is really amazing,"
After throwing the remaining bit into his mouth, the middle-aged man said seriously;
"Uncle Wang, I'll bring you another one,"
"No, no,"
Uncle Wang immediately waved his hand to stop King Zhao, "When the stall is closed, if it is not sold out, just leave two or three for me, my youngest son did well in this exam, and I am worried that I don't know what to buy to reward him, I think your tea eggs are good now." ”
"Uncle, if you buy eggs to reward your son, if he wants to eat them next time and you don't buy them, aren't you afraid that he will often give you a whole back?" Ye Xi stuck out his tongue and said;
Hearing Ye Xi's voice, middle-aged only then did he realize that there was such a beautiful little girl standing next to him, Uncle Wang glanced at King Zhao and said suspiciously, "Your sister?"
For these three words, King Zhao was a little embarrassed, and Uncle Wang also felt that what he said was not very good, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, so he suddenly laughed and said, If that kid gives me two eggs and a chopstick back, I will be very happy.
"Bear-like!" the girl pouted, thinking that he would never be happy in his life, and then she added, "I am his sister."
"Yo, I'm not old, but my heart is not small," Uncle Wang teased;
Uncle Wang, can you give me a suggestion, how much is the right egg? King Zhao glanced at the girl, then scratched his head and asked;
"As the saying goes, scarcity is expensive, we here, there are fried dough sticks, meat buns, rice noodles and so on, there are no tea eggs, and your tea eggs are still local eggs bought from the countryside, right? The key is that it is delicious, plus the TV also said that the price of this tea egg is between five and two yuan a piece, so I suggest you take two yuan," Uncle Wang thought for a while;
"Wouldn't two pieces be too expensive?" King Zhao said, scratching his head;
Boy, do you know how much a native egg costs in the city? Uncle Wang looked at King Zhao and asked;
King Zhao was curious, the word city was unfamiliar to him, but he knew that the place was definitely more prosperous than the town.
Can buy three yuan a piece, Uncle Wang stretched out his right hand, the thumb and middle finger were bent, and the other three fingers were separated, and said;
Uncle Wang then added: Even four yuan a person buys it.
So expensive?, King Zhao exclaimed, and Ye Xi's eyes widened.
In fact, many people save eggs and sell them in the city, so it is difficult to buy eggs at a cheap price, and the plastic eggs in the supermarket are very expensive, almost worth the price of local eggs.
By the way, I'm afraid you bought this egg from a far, far away, right?" Uncle Wang asked.
"Yes!"
King Zhao nodded, this egg was indeed bought by him from a long distance, eight cents a piece, and his tea eggs were going to be sold for five cents a piece.
Xiao Zhao, two dollars is really not expensive, think about it yourself, the price of this native egg is not cheap, plus you have to go far away to buy it, let's do business, you have to calculate the cost first, and time is which of all your costs is in the front, so when you calculate the cost price, you must take time into account first, just like you spend a day to buy a hundred eggs in the countryside, And you spend a day to buy these 100 eggs, even if it costs two dollars a piece, it is equivalent to you earning 200 yuan in two days, and you have to remove all kinds of costs, once calculated, you only earn dozens of dollars a day.
Besides, your tea eggs are not only worth this price, but we can't compare with the big cities here, if it is higher, then there are really no people to buy it, but two yuan a piece, more than eighty percent of the people in Qibao Street can afford to eat, Uncle Wang said;
King Zhao thought about it and felt that what Uncle Wang said was very reasonable, and planned to buy two yuan for each tea egg.
Thank you Uncle Wang and King Zhao for your gratitude, in this world, not everyone will be kind enough to pass on their accumulated experience to you, and you can't take the help of others for granted, otherwise it is not much different from a white-eyed wolf.
What are you thanks, uncle, my tricycle fell in the stinky ditch last time, and you didn't say a word, so you jumped down and helped me get it, and the middle-aged man rolled his eyes and said;
That's just a small favor, what you told me this time is a big truth, it's a big busy, let me use it for a lifetime, King Zhao smirked;
Haha, then I just ate this egg, I will pay you a piece of five, Wang Shule said with a smile, he also saw that Zhao Wang was pleasing to the eye before he would tell him so much, otherwise he would not be too lazy to speak.
Don't want money, don't want money, you told me such a big experience, if I collect your money again, I will be happy in my heart, eat in the future, I will collect money again, King Zhao hurriedly stopped;
In the past, when he sold the back basket, he didn't think so much at all, he always used the price of other people's back baskets to locate the price of his back baskets, other people's big back baskets sell twenty, then he sold seventeen or eighteen, but he has to work too hard than others, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is two or three times, he has to cut back the bamboo from a far away, and he has to carry it to a far place to sell, the same big back basket, even if he sells twenty-one yuan, it is not too much, and his craftsmanship is still very good, and there will be no fewer people to buy, but he himself did not think about this aspect.
"Haha, you stinky boy, come next to me, my position is wide, it's more than enough to put your little stove, this little girl looks smart, Uncle will get you two small meat buns to eat in a while," Uncle Wang rubbed King Zhao's head and smiled;
"This ......" King Zhao was a little embarrassed, after all, that is someone's position, what is the matter with you going up with such a pestle.
What's the matter? Are you worried about robbing my uncle's business? Or are you afraid that I will rob you? Uncle Wang saw King Zhao's twisted posture and said angrily;
You don't have to worry about what others will say about you, people are flesh-hearted, come here early in the morning to set up a stall to sell some food, they are all poor people, and if there is anything between them in the future, they will help each other a little, Uncle Wang said;
The middle-aged man knew that King Zhao's conditions were not good, otherwise he would not even be able to read, and he would come here every day to read through the big screen? Besides, that thing can be learned? Go to the egg of the special mother, if his son can work as hard and hard as a young man, he is willing to burn nine incense sticks for the ancestors every day.
After King Zhao thanked him repeatedly, he moved to Uncle Wang's side, but the hearts of the young man and the girl were imprinted with an indelible figure.
In less than ten minutes, people arrived one after another, and when they saw Queen Zhao, everyone would be stunned for a moment, and then greet them very warmly, and King Zhao would also give everyone a tea egg, and everyone did not refuse, after all, when they first came to sell things, they also came over like this.
"Zhao boy, your tea eggs are good, they are still made of native eggs, to give you a small suggestion, if you plan to use native eggs all the time in the future, you had better write a sign in front of it, marking that you are made of native eggs, and there will be many people who will come to buy them when the time comes," said a woman who was not familiar with King Zhao;
"Your Aunt Wu is right, this will indeed attract more customers. ”
"King Zhao, King Zhao, I'll write!" the little girl said very positively when she heard this;
King Zhao rolled his eyes, this product wants to show off his literary talent.
But in the end, the responsibility of writing still fell on the little girl.
There are so many people who say that it is delicious, and King Zhao's confidence is naturally very strong, with the first customer, there is naturally a second one, what King Zhao didn't expect is that a hundred eggs, except for the uncles and aunts who set up stalls next to them, ate less than thirty, plus the four or five left by King Zhao to Uncle Wang, the rest were quickly bought, and they were not used for an hour and a half, and the speed was very fast.
For the first time, he felt that business was so good.
