Chapter 180: Water Costs Money, It's Greedy!
"Uncle, cook me two large portions of fish balls, and put more vinegar and chili oil!"
The person who came was a half-old child, and it was estimated that it was because he was trotting all the way, and when he arrived at the stall, he had been touching for about a minute or two, and he still kept panting for breath.
At present, there is no more fish puree left, and even if Shui Daquan has the heart to do it, he is still more than willing to do it.
"I'm sorry, I've sold out all of today's volume, why don't you come back tomorrow?"
Although the time has not yet reached noon, the father and daughter of Shui Daquan got dark before dawn, and they didn't even have time to rest their feet along the way.
hurriedly closed the stall, and the two of them didn't stay longer, after all, it would be time to eat in a while, maybe someone would come over to check, calculate the time, if they put everything in the newly rented house now, wash and clean up, maybe the two of them can still catch up with the time to eat a young man's box lunch pad to pad their stomachs.
When the father and daughter returned to the old lady's quarters, sure enough, she was already waiting there. Seeing that Shui Daquan pushed a half-person-high shelf car, and Shui Yao next to him was even more careful to help support the pile of pots and pans, the old lady's eyes rolled a few times, and she stepped forward meaningfully and helped her.
"Oh, what are you two doing here, you have brought so many things, you won't go out to set up a stall to sell food like my neighbor Wang Qiming! This is quite profitable, right? Or I'll tell my wife where it is, and I'll let a few children in the family come over another day. ”
Seeing that Shui Daquan was about to answer, Shui Yao, who heard the voiceover as soon as the old lady spoke, hurriedly glanced at his father, carrying his tired and sore body, barely showing a smile, and coping with the other party's temptation with rustiness and politeness.
"How can it be as powerful as you say, it's just a small fight, you can't make a lot of money, is the room cleaned up?"
When the old lady heard this, she felt that she had been tempted for a long time, and she didn't even ask a useful word, and she was inevitably a little unhappy in her heart. Now although she doesn't know how much profit margin there is in doing such a small business, she can see that Wang Qiming, who lives nearby, is obviously straightened now, and the spirit exuded from his body doesn't know how many times stronger than before, plus the clothes on the wild boy have changed two or three sets in the past two months, which makes even her, an old lady, a little hot.
Because of this, the old lady concluded that although this small business was inconspicuous, there must be a lot of oil and water in it. If this is the case, maybe the father and daughter will renew the rent in a few days.
"Old lady, can I use the water from your well? I would like to borrow some water to brush our dishes and chopsticks. ”
The old lady was making a small calculation, and suddenly heard this little girl say that she wanted to borrow some water, and she was thinking about how to squeeze some oil and water from the father and daughter who picked the door, and as a result, this business came to the door, what is this called? Yes, send pillows when you are dozing off – not too timely!
After making up her mind, the old lady stretched out her hand, although she was rickety, thin and small, but this action made her a little more heroic.
"Hey, isn't this trivial, I already cleaned up the house last night, I don't believe you two went over to take a look, everywhere is bright and bright, even if it is a new house that has just been built, it is not an exaggeration, you are really making a lot of money this time! I can make my wife tired...... I've had a sore back all night! ”
Shui Yao waited for a while and didn't see the old lady mention borrowing their water, so she couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Old lady, this water ......"
When Shui Yao mentioned it again, the old lady was immediately clever, as if she had opened up the second vein of Ren Du all over her body, and she seemed to have endless energy up and down, but because of her age, her eyebrows were so faint that she could barely see it wrinkled slightly, and she looked very embarrassed.
"As for the water...... Alas, it's hard! It's not the old woman, I don't allow you, it's really this well is the life of our whole family ~ root ~ son, my youngest son has to take a tool every time he comes back to measure it in it, for fear that the water in it will be used up too quickly......"
For this lame reason, Shui Daquan, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but roll his eyes: the old lady looked very kind and bold, but she didn't expect it to be such a good person. If the preface does not match the afterword, there is hardly any logic at all. But when it comes to this, it's nothing more than one word - money!
Heh, now think about what Wang Qiming's kid said, Shui Daquan thinks it is true: This old pious woman has really fallen into the eyes of money! Not to mention the side, people with a little IQ know that unless it is a major drought weather, just dig a well, and the water in it is said to be used up? Besides, there are only dozens of bowls like this, even if it is a few dozen cucumbers in the neighbor's own field, Shui Daquan has not asked anyone for a penny!
But in a blink of an eye, looking at his daughter, Shui Yao seemed to know everything well, and he didn't get angry at the old lady's unreasonable request, but directly took out five cents and handed it to the other party.
"It's okay, you can take the money first, although it's not much, but we just use a little water from your house, and we will use it more times in the future, and it's not a small amount in a month, so you ......"
"Okay, I'll get you a dishcloth!"
Shui Yao didn't even have time to finish speaking, the old lady was afraid that she would regret it, grabbed the money and held it tightly in the palm of her hand the moment she grabbed it, and then walked with a pair of small feet without looking back, and the speed of running almost made Shui Daquan dumbfounded: The power of this money is simply incredible!
After returning home in the afternoon, the father and daughter closed the door and began to carefully count the day's harvest. Although Shui Daquan knew that the first day of the opening of the stall was a good business, it was a good start. But when Shui Yao took out the money box and opened the lid, the bits and pieces of tickets in it made Shui Daquan's eyes widen in surprise.
One cent, two cents, five cents, one, and even two pieces, it's a big box full of stuffs! The first time he saw so much change put together, Shui Daquan only felt that all the fatigue accumulated over the past few days was swept away at this moment, and the blood in almost every vein of his body was boiling uncontrollably.
"This ...... How are there so many! ”
A pair of big hands stretched out just stopped on top of the box, making Shui Daquan a little at a loss, and he didn't know where to start.
Shui Yao couldn't help but feel very funny when he saw that his father was like this, he didn't panic, and methodically put several kinds of change in the box neatly, and then grabbed a handful of coins from the box and put them on the table in front of Shui Daquan.
"You read that right, this is all earned by selling fish balls this morning, but you have to be mentally prepared, today is just the first time, and there will be more days like this in the future, if you are so nervous when you come back, and you can't sleep in the middle of the night, then how can you put your mind at ease? Aren't you curious? Did we make a lot of money this morning? ”
Under Shui Yao's teasing, Shui Daquan's nervous mood was also calmed down a little, and then he devoted himself to the great cause of counting money with Shui Yao.
Because their fish balls are not cheap, a bowl of five cents, many customers who come to eat are carrying gross tickets, and they have to take a whole small handful of coins to buy a bowl of fish balls, so Shui Yao knows very well in his heart that although the money is piled up like a small mountain and looks a little exaggerated, it is actually not that large.
......
After a lot of busyness, the two almost lost their eyes.
"Seventy-one! God, did we all sell 142 bowls this morning? It's incredible! ”
Seventy-one yuan is worth Shui Daquan's salary for two months in the coal mine, no wonder he is so surprised. But thinking about the fish he caught before, Shui Yao felt that until now, his hands were still faintly sore.
"If you are too much, then let's catch some less fish, think about the busy work with you yesterday for so long, and I am really tired of watching the house and going up the mountain."
Looking at Shui Yao, who was full of bitterness, Daquan smiled, and then divided half of the money earned in the morning to Shui Yao.
"You can take this money and spend it first, or you can rest at home tomorrow, and I'll go back and bring you food at noon, anyway, you'll go back to school in the afternoon, so you can't be too tired."
"But as for what you said about catching fish, I think I won't be able to get much by myself as soon as you leave, and besides, the weather is so hot now that the fish can't be sold, and it's a pity to throw away such a good thing in vain."
"In fact, the most important point is that no matter how much money you make, how can it be important to have a body? It's only the first day, I feel like I can't eat on my legs, and at this intensity, I'm also doing a day and two days! Besides, even if I want to dry it every day, the more fish balls I sell, the better, so I have to give the fish in the mountains some time to grow......"
After joking, Shui Yao found that his wood-like father still had the concept of sustainable development, but with such a large number of bowls and pans and rack cars, Shui Daquan estimated that it was more difficult to get by himself. So he made a quick decision.
"No, I'm at home for a day, so I can't let you go out alone, just wait for you to catch this fish yourself, I'll go out tomorrow and sleep well in the afternoon......"
