Chapter 147: Opening a Store
Xu Qiao found that the room that she hadn't lived in for a while was still very clean, and a lot of things had been added to the living room.
Gu Chengchuan put down his luggage and glanced at the room: "Recently, Lao Liu lived here, and I asked him to simply add furniture and kitchen utensils. The two of you live in the master bedroom, and the small bedroom is Lao Liu's. ”
Mai Yiyi's eyes lit up, and she walked into the living room with small steps behind her back and smiled: "Not bad, not bad." The heating was much better than that little broken house in Stone City. ”
As he spoke, he sniffed vigorously, his eyes bloomed, and there seemed to be a clear smell in the room!
Xu Qiao opened the shoe cabinet and found that there were several new pairs of slippers inside, as well as two pairs of pink ones. I brought a pair out for Mai Yiyi. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, Gu Chengchuan was really careful.
Gu Chengchuan raised his wrist and looked at the time: "I'm going to report to the squadron now, you guys will go and eat by yourself in a while." There is an alley not far to the right of the community, and there are many restaurants selling vegetables and restaurants. ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Xu Qiao again: "I'm leaving." ”
Xu Qiao thought for a while: "Well, then can I go to the squadron to see you?" ”
Gu Chengchuan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded: "Yes." ”
Mai Yiyi was lying lazily on the sofa, smiling like a well-fed fox, and if she had a tail, she might wag it. watched Xu Qiao "reluctant to send Gu Chengchuan downstairs", and came back reluctantly. couldn't help but tease: "This just separated, you want to be a husband stone?" ”
Xu Qiao glanced at her, and pulled the luggage of the two to the bedroom to pack up.
Mai Yiyi followed with a smile: "What are your plans for the past two days?" Why don't you go around with me? ”
Xu Qiao said while putting clothes in the closet: "I'm afraid it won't work, I have to go to the store quickly, I can't be so idle at home." It's shameful to waste time. ”
Mai Yiyi lay down on the big bed, and her voice was lazy: "Are you very anxious?" Come on, come on, this master will give you a hexagram. The little girl looked at the heavenly court full, with flesh on her nose and ruddy face. It's a blessing at first glance! In the future, I will definitely be able to find a good husband and live a good life without worrying about food and clothing. ”
Xu Qiao's hand hanging up her clothes stopped, and she turned her head to look at Mai Yiyi: "No, I have to rely on myself." ”
And she felt that all her luck was used to meet Gu Chengchuan, and there would not be so much good luck. You must be down-to-earth and diligent.
Mai Yiyi smiled: "Okay, I'll accompany you recently." ”
After tidying up their clothes, Xu Qiao and Mai Yiyi went to the neighborhood to eat a simple bowl of noodles, and bought some vegetables and fruits, ready to eat at home in the future.
On the way back, Mai Yiyi couldn't help but complain: "I won't go to the house just now to eat anymore, it's really unpalatable." The noodles are too salty, and the oil has a strange taste. ”
Xu Qiao thought about it, it seems that the past few years have been when gutter oil has been rampant, and it has not been reported.
Many restaurants want to make more money, so they will deduct the ingredients, oil, rice, noodles, vegetables and meat are the cheapest. Turned his head and glanced at Mai Yiyi: "If I do it, I will definitely not make black money." ”
Mai Yiyi smiled and hugged Xu Qiao's shoulders: "I support you, my grandfather said it." Cooking must be conscientious, after a long time, good fortune will naturally come. And the dishes made with heart are something that others can't imitate if they want to. There's no need to be afraid of being stolen. ”
I don't know if it's because of the noodles, Mai Yiyi began to have stomach trouble at night, and she was nauseous and wanted to vomit.
Xu Qiao found some antidiarrheal medicine from the medicine box in Liu Jingchi's room for her to eat, took her temperature again, and frowned: "You didn't have a bad stomach, but your stomach was cold." Maybe I fell asleep in the car and then suddenly got out of the car and caught a cold. ”
Mai Yiyi lay on the bed in pain: "No, I think I may die, you need to call the emergency number 120, or call Dr. Liu, isn't he a doctor?" ”
Xu Qiao looked at Mai Yiyi strangely: "You are not serious enough to need an ambulance, and you will be fine if you take the medicine slowly." I'll make you some porridge in a moment. Besides, I don't have Dr. Liu's phone number. ”
Mai Yiyi opened her mouth to speak, but suddenly thought of something, and buried her face in the pillow as if shyly.
Xu Qiao: ". . . ”
Mai Yiyi had a stomach upset, and the tossing did not stop until the second half of the night.
Early the next morning, Xu Qiao boiled porridge and let Mai Yiyi drink porridge at home to rest, and she went to find a shop near Yangzhuang by herself.
Mai Yiyi was short of energy, so she just waved her hand and watched Xu Qiao go out.
Just after the Lantern Festival, the lanterns on the street have not been removed, and there is still a little festive atmosphere.
Yangzhuang is also not as lively and bustling as before, many people who go home for the New Year have not rushed back, the small streets are deserted, the restaurants are also some open, some are sticking paper, it is written that the twentieth day of the first month is open normally.
Xu Qiao started looking on the street near the fire brigade first, but there were a few shops that said transfer, but they were not suitable for opening a restaurant. Finally, I saw a shop for rent on the corner of the street, which used to be a small restaurant.
Xu Qiao was not in a hurry, first walked around, and then went to inquire about the situation with the uncle who was looking for the opposite shoe repair.
Just after the New Year, no one repaired shoes, and the old man saw the young girl coming to chat, so he naturally chatted enthusiastically: "The girl wants to open a store?" ”
Xu Qiao nodded: "Well, I want to open a small restaurant." ”
The old man shook his head: "Selling food?" The location of this store is not good. This shop turns around three times a year. The store is not small, but the business is not good. ”
"Why?"
The old man pointed to both sides of the curtain: "This place is at the end of the village." Many people eat and buy food, and it is impossible to run from the head of the village to the end of the village. And ah, there is a pit behind this store, which is unlucky. Don't gather wealth! ”
Xu Qiao's eyes lit up: "What kind of food did the previous store sell?" ”
The old man thought for a while: "There is beef ramen, and donkey meat is roasted, and dumplings were sold a few years ago." ”
Xu Qiao sighed, she had no experience in business, and after listening to the old man's words, she couldn't help frowning and thinking about it, the business of selling dumplings is not good?
The old man continued: "I have been on this street for three or four years, and there is only one advantage here, the rent is cheap. If you think about it, the cheap rent must be a bad location. If you don't open a store in a good location, you won't lose money if you can't sell it. ”
Xu Qiao looked down at the old man's shoe-smashing machine, and had some questions: "Uncle, why didn't you open a store in front of the village?" Aren't there so many people here? ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "I, I just look at the good sunshine in this winter, and I don't make much money in vain." In the summer, I go to the entrance of the village, which is cooler. ”
Xu Qiao smiled, said goodbye to the uncle, and went around the store again. Use this shop as an alternative and take a look at the other streets.
