Afternoon.

The early autumn sunshine adheres to its viciousness and scorching the capital, but the growing coolness in the breeze dispels a lot of the sunshine.

Daochun Dongli, a fork in the road leading to the community.

Not far to the east along the fork in the road, there is the West Second Gate of Daochun Community, and there are only a few storefronts on both sides of the door, operating a small supermarket, a breakfast stall, a restaurant, a welfare lottery, and a vegetable and fruit store.

Because it is in the afternoon, there are few pedestrians inside and outside the community, through the glass doors and windows of several stores, you can see the boss, the waiter sitting leisurely in the store to rest, chatting, an elderly lady, in the open space in front of the store, smiling and helplessly watching the little doll who refuses to take a lunch break running and jumping and playing.

All of them exude a peaceful calm.

The door of the "Soldier Supermarket" was open, and the ceiling fan in the store was whirring and turning.

The boss, dressed in neat trousers, short-sleeved shirts, and leather shoes, sat on a bamboo recliner and slept with his eyes closed.

A red Wrangler approached slowly and pulled up in the parking space on the opposite side of the road.

Inside the car.

Skullcap Zhi sat in the driver's seat and smiled: "It looks pretty good." ”

Wen Shuo, who was sitting in the co-pilot, glanced at Xu Congjun, who was napping leisurely in the store, looked at the surrounding environment again, shook his head and said, "The business in this store is not much better, and the place chosen by Uncle Xu is not good." ”

"Oh?" said Skullcap in surprise: "It should be okay to sell some daily necessities such as tobacco and alcohol, right?"

"Such a good geographical location, but only a few storefronts, indicating that there must be no less than two comprehensive supermarkets in the community, residents of the community have any needs, downstairs in the community can be bought, why go outside to buy?" Wen Shuo sighed, said: "Breakfast stalls, restaurants, lottery station business can be good, but the business of the small store is not much better, it is good to be able to support yourself." ”

"Retirement, guarding such a small shop, and having a pension. Huang Qinzhi smiled and said, "Probably, Deputy Director Xu likes such a peaceful life, right?"

Wen Shuo shook his head and said, "The capital is not a suitable place for outsiders to retire, especially if the family is not well-off. Uncle Xu has a good pension, but he can't sit on the empty side, rent a house in the capital, and his daily living expenses are ...... Xu Fang's salary income is not very high. Qin Zhi, you have never lived the life of ordinary people, and you don't know that the expenses of oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, food, drink, and clothing are a huge expense for many ordinary families. With Uncle Xu's character, he would never want to retire at this age, he wanted to earn more money and save a dowry for his daughter. ”

Skullcap Zhi was stunned and said, "Then why does he still want to open this small store?"

"It's simple. Wen Shuo said with a smile: "He has no experience in this area at all, and he doesn't know how to open a small store to do a good job, he thinks that as long as he invests and the store opens, things can be sold and he can make money." ”

"Actually......" Skullcap shook her head with a wry smile and said, "I don't understand either." ”

Wen Shuo pointed to those storefronts and said, "Actually, Uncle Xu also rented the storefront room next to him, looking at the architectural model here, the wall in the middle should be able to be demolished, so after he rents it, the business area will be doubled, and the supermarket will sell some vegetables, fruits, etc., and the business will be much better." ”

"Why?" Huang Qinzhi wondered: "There are already vegetables and fruits sold next to him, how much profit can he make if he buys them again? Besides, the rent of the store next to it means that the rent has doubled." ”

"He minimizes the profits of vegetables and fruits, and even loses money, so that he can make money. Wen Shuo said with a smile: "When I first arrived in the capital, I once considered opening a small store, and also specially inspected and thought carefully, how to do the business of the store will be better, after my observation and analysis, open a small store in the residential area, well, it can also be said to be a small supermarket, and it is better to sell fruits and vegetables by the way, because you have to take into account the psychology of the residents of the community shopping in the store, and when they come back from work, what they want most is to be able to shop at one stop, rather than from this store, and then run to that store...... What's more, the price of your vegetables and fruits is very low, which will make people feel that you are really opening a store, and vegetables and fruits are indispensable at home every day, so buy vegetables and fruits in your store, and then buy bags of salt, cigarettes, bottles of wine, and snacks, and your business will be done. ”

Although Skullcap Zhi doesn't understand the doorway of this small business, she is naturally smart, and after the fat man told her like this, she immediately understood the main point.

So she suddenly felt a little sorry for the fat man.

If it weren't for the fact that he was poor since he was a child, he was bent on making money, and he was afraid that every penny would be wasted, how could a fat man pay so much energy in this kind of small store with an investment of only tens of thousands of yuan?

Just when she sighed that she felt sorry for the fat man, the fat man was also frowning slightly and thinking about something.

Looking at the fat man's serious appearance, Skullcap suddenly understood why the fat man asked her to drive over today.

Fat man!

Isn't he tired?

Every day, we must calculate people's hearts to the limit......

The fat man asked her to drive with her today, not to save the cost of taking a taxi, nor to save time, but to make Skullcap more down-to-earth and comfortable, so as to avoid some unnecessary little sourness and small entanglements.

In life, a large part of the daily noisy disputes between men and women in love, as well as two people who have been married for many years, are lack of communication and understanding.

What is even more lacking is a kind of careful thinking and prediction.

The fat man wants to help Xu Congjun, no matter who it is, including Skullcap Zhi, it is completely understandable and willing to support him.

But, Xu Congjun has a daughter, a beautiful daughter!

One, the daughter who works at Shuoyuan Holdings!

Even though Skullcap is very intelligent, she is extremely confident in all aspects, and she still believes in fat people...... However, suspicion and jealousy, and wise psychology and generous mood, are two different things - three times twice, you can act as if nothing has happened, and you can even take the initiative to help and laugh.

Is it too much?

In fact, every time Xu Fang and Xu Congjun are helped, it will inevitably make Skullcap Zhi feel a little uncomfortable.

Wait a lot......

It will accumulate into a fuse.

It's not about right or wrong, it's about measurement and temperament.

It's human nature!

For example, this time, in most people's eyes, the fat man didn't need to call Skullcap Zhi at all, and said with a big face that it was to save money, more like using his girlfriend's luxury car to show off. But in fact, it was precisely because the fat man asked Skullcap Zhi to accompany him to visit Xu Congjun that he quietly eliminated some hidden dangers that might lead to misunderstandings.

It's a pity that there are too few couples and couples with high EQ and IQ like Fat Man and Skullcap Zhi, and who are not so narrow-minded.

So in such an ordinary time period, Skullcap suddenly felt very happy and lucky.

Then she couldn't help but pursed her lips again, and thought angrily: "It's the fat man who is lucky!"

"What's wrong?" the fat man looked at the skullcap with a somewhat uncertain expression, and was apprehensive - should it be, skullcap is jealous, right?

Huang Qinzhi came back to her senses and said with a smile: "It's nothing, since Deputy Director Xu's business here is destined to be bad, what are you going to do?"

"Alas. Wen Shuo sighed and said: "He has always been a leader, and his personality is extremely strong to save face, if he really arranges a job, even if he earns more, do you think he will agree?"

"Why don't you agree?" Huang Qinzhi said suspiciously: "He runs a small supermarket, he is alone, he has to stay here every day, tired and boring, it is better to go to our company, arrange a job for him casually, easily, and earn a lot of money...... Wen Shuo, you don't have to worry about my feelings, I can understand you. ”

The fat man waved his hand and said, "Qin Zhi, I thank you in advance for your understanding and tolerance, the problem is, he will definitely not agree." ”

Skullcap showed a helpless look and shook her head

The fat man opened the car window, lit a cigarette, frowned slightly and thought for a while, and said, "I have an idea, let's discuss it, what do you ......think?"

"You say. Skullcap smiled.

"Shuoyuan Network Technology Training School will move to a new campus before the end of the year. Wen Shuo pondered and said: "Just let Uncle Xu open a small store in our school, let him build a small simple house by himself, open the door to the school and the outside road, no matter how bad it is, there are teachers and students in the school who usually buy some cigarettes and alcohol, daily necessities or something, and some people passing by go to the store to buy some things, which makes more money than here." ”

"I don't understand this, just look at the arrangement. Skullcap gently patted Wen Shuo's hand and said softly, "I believe in you." ”

Wen Shuo was so smart that he immediately understood the meaning of Skullcap Zhi's sentence "I believe in you".

If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?!

So sensible!

The little couple got out of the car and walked to the small supermarket across the road.

Walking into the supermarket, Wen Shuo stood in front of the counter, looked at the cigarettes placed in the counter, and said with a smile: "Boss, take a pack of cigarettes." ”

In fact, when the two of them entered the door, Xu Congjun had already woken up.

It's just that I was dazed, and I didn't see the little couple wearing a sunhat and sunglasses clearly.

"Okay, what kind of cigarettes are you smoking?" Xu Congjun got up and walked to the back of the counter with a smile.

"Soft China. ”

"Yo, I'm sorry. Xu Congjun said embarrassedly: "Our store is small, and we don't have such good cigarettes." ”

Wen Shuo couldn't cry or laugh, and said, "Boss, why don't you take another sentence, is it okay to smoke Yuxi?"

"Huh?" Xu Congjun was stunned.

"Do business, whether it succeeds or not, one more kind word will not cause any loss! If the guest agrees, won't you earn a few more dollars?" Wen Shuo said with a smile, turning his head to look at the skullcap who pursed her lips and couldn't help laughing.

Xu Congjun recognized the fat man and the skullcap, and immediately put on a straight face and said, "If you have it, I won't sell it to you, get out!"

"Hey, I said boss, how do you do business?" Wen Shuo said angrily.

Xu Congjun bent down and lowered his head, stretched out his hand and took out two Yuxi cigarettes from under the counter, slammed them on the counter, and said angrily: "Don't you want to buy cigarettes?

"Boss, you are buying and selling!" Wen Shuo said with a grin.

Xu Congjun's hands sank down and neatly untied the belt.

"Uncle, uncle, don't, don't...... My girlfriend is here. Wen Shuo hurriedly took a step back and waved his hand to beg for mercy.
