"Big sister, it's really yours." Looking at the densely packed sunscreen umbrellas outside, Xiaohu couldn't help but give Xia Yan a thumbs up, "In order to make them settle down and queue up, you actually thought of this trick." ”

In the face of Xiaohu's praise, Xia Yan just smiled lightly and didn't say much.

She was forced to come up with a way to make a sunscreen umbrella.

The other three shops are open every day to make it easier for people to get up early to buy groceries and cook.

In the scorching summer, it is basically unbearable hot when the day comes.

In order to increase people's sense of anticipation for shaved ice, Sweet Island does not open at the same time as the other three shops, but only opens at the end of the day.

Imagine buying a bowl of shaved ice and eating it in your mouth when it's hottest, and how you can't help but be fascinated by the refreshing feeling that penetrates your heart.

But at this time, there is a defect in opening the door, that is, the sky is too hot, and the sun is so poisonous that people can't stand in the open for a long time, so that although many people want to eat shaved ice in their hearts, their bodies don't want to suffer this sin, so they can only swallow saliva at home.

People with good conditions can say that they don't want to go out, so they can send someone to buy it, but this is also flawed.

Because the temperature is so high, by the time people buy the shaved ice back home, it will already turn into a puddle of water.

Those who are closer can at least drink a bowl of cold shaved ice water to enjoy themselves, but those who are far away can only drink warm juice.

It stands to reason that if it's too hot during the day, you can choose to buy shaved ice at night.

But firstly, several shops in Xia Yan do not have the rules of opening at night, and secondly, eating shaved ice at night does not have the same refreshing feeling as during the day, so people who want to eat shaved ice can only buy it before the unitary time.

The final result was that after this freshness passed, fewer and fewer people came to buy shaved ice, and it did not meet Xia Yan's expectations at all.

After some investigation, Xia Yan finally found the reason, but she couldn't point to the sun to prevent it from coming out, there was no way, so she thought of the sunscreen artifact on the earth - the sunscreen umbrella.

She also thought of using a large curtain to cover the front of Sweet Island, but this would cause dissatisfaction among other shops on this street, after all, there were too many people queuing up, and there was no way to stand in front of Sweet Island, and many people were standing in the open space in front of other shops.

But if the open space of other shops is also blocked, the cost is too high, and secondly, people may not be willing, so Xia Yan can only choose to use a more flexible sunscreen umbrella.

Selling sunscreen umbrellas to others can not only increase their own income, but also ensure that they come to Sweet Island to queue up, and they can win a good reputation in Qin County.

But the process of making a sunscreen umbrella is not so easy.

When Chinese people were still using oil-paper umbrellas, no one thought of using cloth to make umbrellas, so this waterproof fabric was not easy to find.

Xia Yan braved the sun and searched for a few days in Qin County, and finally found this kind of waterproof cloth in a shipyard, and after asking them about the source of this cloth, he rushed to the cloth workshop overnight to make a batch.

The cloth is there, and the materials for making the umbrella bone are also available, but the innermost layer of vinyl makes Xia Yan embarrassed.

After all, she is not a professional umbrella maker, although she knows what materials are needed for the layer of vinyl inside, but she can't recall all of them for a while, and she has no choice but to rely on her sixth sense and luck to explore little by little.

God bless, after boiling the glue for three whole days, just when she was about to give up, she finally successfully boiled the vinyl, as for whether it can prevent ultraviolet rays, she has no spectrum in her heart.

After some experiments, it was not clear whether she could protect Xia Yan from the sun, but at least this umbrella could block the sun, so she confidently placed the sunscreen umbrella on Sweet Island and sold it.

At the beginning, many people laughed at her for not doing her job properly, leaving the delicious and popular shaved ice alone, but disappeared for a few days, and everyone knew that she was going to make an umbrella.

Dog days, and it doesn't rain or snow, what are you doing in the store with all these umbrellas?

But when they saw Sweet Island and all the guys who were eating for the sky, fresh vegetables, and sweet fruits, they would wear umbrellas in and out, and finally couldn't help but be curious, and decided to buy one and try it.

This time I tried it, and I knew how good this umbrella really was.

With this umbrella, they can stand in the sun for a day without being too much of a sun.

Now the people queuing in front of the Sweet Island are almost crazy with excitement, and with this umbrella, they no longer have to rely on perseverance to hold on when queuing.

They sighed one after another, Shopkeeper Xia is simply a talent, he can come up with a way to use an umbrella to shade the sun, such a good business opportunity, why no one else has found it, and it is no wonder that people can buy a street of property at a young age.

People who have experienced first-hand how easy to use sunscreen umbrellas have expressed their willingness to buy a few more so that they can take them back to their families.

But Xia Yan refused their request to buy a few more, and stipulated that everyone could only buy a handful.

If you want to give it to your family, it's easy to do it, just bring someone here and line up.

Although many people think that this rule is too unreasonable, after years of getting along, they also know that the rules of Shopkeeper Xia can only be followed, and they have not seen her change easily.

There is no way, people who want umbrellas can only line up to buy them in person.

So much so that in the end, three out of ten people who came to the queue came specifically to buy umbrellas.

But it also drove the business of Sweet Island, after all, after being exposed to the sun outside for so long, everyone would want to have a bowl to cool off.

As for why Xia Yan set such strange rules, firstly, it is to make more people in line, so as to attract potential customers as much as possible, and secondly, because it is too troublesome to make this umbrella, if she doesn't limit it, she doesn't know how many she has to do, she doesn't want to spend all her time on it.

"Shopkeeper, I want to buy a blue umbrella." Just when Xia Yan recalled the hard work of making umbrellas a few days ago, a woman with extremely white skin spoke.

This kind of person who wants to buy an umbrella when she enters the door, Xia Yan has seen a lot in the past few days, and she doesn't feel strange, when she saw the pink umbrella in the woman's hand, she shook her head and smiled: "Madam, you already have one, the rules of our Sweet Island, each person can only buy one." ”

"This is what my husband bought for me." The woman looked down at the umbrella in her hand, as if she remembered something, and looked happy, "So I want to buy him one today." ”

"And what about your husband?" Xia Yan stretched out his head to look at the woman's side, but did not see anyone else, "You know, our umbrellas on Sweet Island can only be sold to those who really need umbrellas, if your husband needs them, please let him come in person." ”

"My husband...... He's outside. The woman suddenly looked at Xia Yan curiously and said.

Xia Yan was so looked at by her that she couldn't understand what she meant, so she could only continue to ask, "Then why didn't he come in with you?" ”

"Isn't that your rule?" The woman was puzzled, "If you want to buy things in your shop, you can only queue up, and you can only enter one person at a time, and I buy things in the other three shops are the same rules." ”

Hearing her say this, Xia Yan sneered and said, "Madam, you haven't been here for a few days, have you?" ”

"You...... How do you know. The woman blushed, "Because it's so hot, I haven't been out for some days." ”

"No wonder." Xia Yan smiled, "There is indeed a rule that only one person can enter at a time, but it is just a rule that food is the sky, vegetables are fresh and fruits are sweet, and this is not the case on this sweet island." As long as you come together, whether you are a husband and wife or ordinary friends, two or ten, you can come in together. I've already had people put up notices in those three shops, and you don't even know that, but haven't you been here for a few days? ”

The reason why Xia Yan had to set that kind of rule before was purely because there were too many people who would rush up, and she was upset when she looked at it. Anyway, it's all about queuing, so it's better to reduce the number of people to a minimum at one time and be quiet. What's more, it's just to buy some food and vegetables, and there is no need to call friends, most people come by themselves.

But the situation on Sweet Island is different, but here are going to sell desserts, eat some snacks or snacks, or bring family and friends with it to be happier.

"Shopkeeper Xia, you don't know, I've been thinking about fresh vegetables for a long time, but because my skin will be red as soon as I am exposed to the sun, and when it is serious, it will itch, so I really can't go out." The woman hurriedly explained, "Even today was specially pulled by my husband, and I was ready to itch my body, but I didn't expect that there was no discomfort until now." Shopkeeper Xia, thanks to your umbrella. ”

Hearing this, Xia Yan was surprised, it would be red and itchy when exposed to the sun, which was a manifestation of ultraviolet allergies, since this woman would not blister, it means that the allergy is not so serious, as long as it can block part of the ultraviolet rays, it can ensure that it is okay.

She originally didn't have much hope for the sunscreen umbrella's ultraviolet blocking function, after all, she made it by mistake by memory and luck, and she didn't expect it to have so many functions, as long as it could block direct sunlight.

But what she didn't expect was that this woman actually gave her an unexpected joy, this is really a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, and God is helping her.

Thinking that his umbrella had added another selling point, Xia Yan couldn't help but feel good, and smiled at the woman: "Hurry up and let your husband come in, I'm in a good mood today, I will send shaved ice when you buy an umbrella." ”

The woman nodded when she heard this, and immediately called her husband in.

The man was suddenly called in, he didn't react for a while, looked at the woman and asked, "Isn't there only one person at a time in Shopkeeper Xia's shop, why did you even call me in, isn't this in accordance with the rules?" Otherwise, I'll go out first, and I'll come in when you're done buying, if you annoy Shopkeeper Xia, she won't sell things to us. ”

"Xianggong, it's okay." The woman glanced at Xia Yan and saw that she was not a trace of dissatisfaction, so she completely relieved herself, "It was Shopkeeper Xia who asked me to call you in, and said that he would give us shaved ice for free." Xianggong, what is shaved ice? ”
