Chapter 48: Collection of Protection Fees
"Let's go over and take a look!" One of the young ladies said coquettishly, looking at Cheng Mu's appearance, she also had some expectations.
Cheng Mu picked up one of the bags, uncovered the rope at the mouth of the bag, pulled it a little harder, and opened it.
Pick up the note in the bag, which shows the name and quantity of the item, as well as a message from the store. Cheng Mu was not interested in taking a closer look, so he threw it aside and reached out to take out a box from the bag.
When I opened it, it was the hairpin she bought, "Wow, Sister Cheng, you can really buy such a beautiful thing" A young lady who looked baby-faced on the side exclaimed, she thought that what she bought was defective.
Cheng Mushun put the hairpin on his head, "Of course, the things are all from Shuifang Street, just like the ones we call people to buy on weekdays, are they good-looking?" ”
"It's good-looking, Sister Cheng, what else did you buy, take it apart and let us see", a few people were excited, they just came to see Cheng Mu buy things today, they didn't know that things could really be bought like this.
"Okay, I also bought clothes, let's take a look", Cheng Mu is really generous, the last time I bought something in the booklet, it came quickly, and now I want to buy it again.
After a burst of enthusiastic and excited express delivery, several young ladies were excited to buy something, picked up Cheng Mu's booklet, and a group of people gathered around to discuss which one looked good and which one to buy.
But being too famous isn't necessarily a good thing. On this day, it was half a month after the release of the book "Miss Huahua", and He Ruocai and dozens of other business owners made a lot of money in this half month, and earned back what they hadn't earned in the previous three months.
This can make them happy, every day before dawn, the deserted water spinning street on weekdays, now there are more people. Not only Qiao Zheng, who comes to receive and deliver goods every day, but also many men and children like to come and take the booklet to check the goods, telling the women in the family to buy with confidence.
And those merchants who refused to spend half a summer at the beginning could only watch with their eyes, watching the couriers of Tanhua Express come to the door every day to receive goods and deliver money.
Now the water textile street is more lively than before, but most of the people come with brochures, and they are too lazy to enter the shops that are not on the brochures, and they are really anxious to kill those business owners.
Miss Huahua and Tanhua Express have swept the city in just a few days, and some of the business owners who have not cooperated have come to the door to seek cooperation, but they have all been rejected by Hua Banxia on the grounds of March book.
Hua Banxia really thinks so, and his original plan was to make March a book, even if he wants to shoot the next one, he will have to wait until two months later.
But these rejected bosses didn't seem to listen, they just thought that Hua Banxia was so high-minded and ambitious at a young age, and they felt that they were not worthy of Miss Huahua's book.
On this day, in the store of Tanhua Express, Qiao Da took Qiao Zheng and they were riding back slowly, and after delivering the last order of today, they were already tired and their feet trembled, and their buttocks were numb, and it would be good to be able to ride back on the bike.
It's already dark, but Hua Banxia is still recording the list in his hand, and there will be a list when Qiao Da and they return, these days are like this, and they can't stop being busy.
Qiao Da also mentioned to Hua Banxia before, the farmland at home doesn't know what is like now, it has been four months, and there has not been a single rain in Nancheng, and the water in this river is afraid that it will no longer be able to hold up.
Now is the moment when the rice in the field turns yellow, if there is no water, it will dry up directly, and the crops that everyone has insisted on operating for so long cannot be destroyed at a critical moment.
Therefore, Hua Banxia decided to suspend business for a day tomorrow, originally in order to consolidate the market and under pressure from various merchants, Hua Banxia and Qiao Da's family had not rested for half a month, and they couldn't stand it.
On the second day, Qiao's family rested for one night and got up early in the morning, except for Qiao Yi and Hua Qingqing who stayed with Hua Banxia, everyone else rushed back to Qiaoli Village, saying that they were going back to take a look at the crops.
Well, the three of them couldn't sleep when they woke them up, so they all got up.
Hua Banxia was responsible for settling yesterday's accounts clearly, and asked Qiao Yi to send the money to the business owners. Hua Qingqing is still the same as before, responsible for helping everyone go out to buy breakfast.
This day's high-intensity work, it's not okay to skip breakfast, even Qiao Da and they were moved by Hua Banxia's words, and a breakfast is indispensable.
Qiao Yi and Hua Qingqing both went out, Hua Banxia stretched his waist, thinking about where there is a talent market in this southern city, where to recruit people the fastest, Tanhua Express is in urgent need of talents now.
"Hey, hey!" , Cheng Ze entered Hua Banxia's store with a sword in the morning, and saw Hua Banxia alone at the counter stunned, and she didn't hear a few calls to her.
Hua Banxia was frightened by Cheng Ze's heavy hand, and was relieved to see that it was Cheng Ze.
"Why are you, why are you here?" Hua Banxia is a little strange, Cheng Ze doesn't come out to patrol the streets so early on weekdays, and the vegetable farmers in the market haven't arrived in the city yet.
"Coming to you, can't you?" Cheng Ze naturally walked to the chair in the reception hall and sat down, threw the sword on the table, and poured himself a glass of water, because he knew that Hua Banxia, the girl, would never pour him water.
Hua Banxia walked out of the counter, "Looking for me?" Why are you looking for me, collect protection money", walked to the chair next to Cheng Ze, and found a comfortable position to sit down.
Being teased by Hua Banxia like this, Cheng Ze seemed to suddenly think of something, "Yes, I can charge you protection money, why didn't I think of it!" ”
Cheng Ze looked suddenly enlightened, and his eyes flashed with shrewdness.
Hua Banxia was speechless, he was just joking, but he became the one who reminded him that he could collect protection money?
"No, I'm just saying it casually, you won't take it seriously, will you?" Hua Banxia asked exaggeratedly, what if he really opened his mind and looked for people everywhere to collect protection money, wouldn't he be the culprit who harmed those merchants and hawkers outside?
Cheng Ze is absolutely serious, "Banxia, you see that your business is doing so well now, it is inevitable that some people will be red-eyed, or you should give me some money to protect you."
Is there something wrong with this person, he would actually surrender his identity to protect a village girl? "No, no, this is my small business, who would be red-eyed", Hua Banxia hurriedly refused.
Cheng Ze saw that Hua Banxia was a brain, and she wouldn't care if she didn't tell her the seriousness of the matter. "Banxia, let me tell you the truth, I got the news here, saying that it is the embroidery building on Shuifang Street, and you have to be careful if you want to find someone to teach you a lesson."
The embroidery building is the first embroidery village in the water textile street, the business is very large, and several nearby towns have its branches, but for some reason, it is not able to enter the capital.
Hua Banxia had also been to the embroidery room before, but whether it was a guy or a shopkeeper, the embroidery studio was a guy who looked down on people, and directly blasted Hua Banxia out.
No, Miss Huahua's book was released, and the shopkeeper of the embroidery building seemed to be interested, and a few days ago he sent someone to invite Hua Banxia to the building to talk, but Hua Banxia refused.
Hua Banxia was busy at that time, and he really had no intention of refusing Wanli, and the owners of other shops themselves also politely refused.
In fact, Wanli said that she wanted to find someone to teach her a lesson, and she already knew about it, and two days ago, Hua Manlou sent someone to send a message to Hua Banxia, and she was talking about Wanli.
"The shopkeeper also wants us to help deliver the goods, it's nothing, I can solve it", Hua Banxia smiled indifferently.
"You are really ......" Cheng Ze was speechless, when did she still laugh, "Wanli is a person who can eat both black and white, you are a country girl, you want money and no money, you want powerless, how can you fight with others."
Hua Banxia was a little stunned, "No, didn't he just open a small shop, send a single order of goods for less than ten yuan, and don't earn as much as his family, what is he doing for me?" ”
Before it was put aside, the streets were full of express delivery, and even when I went out on my own tasks, I rarely received orders related to logistics, what big trouble could this cause?
"Are you busy and stupid", Cheng Ze was really angry with this woman, "You really think he wants you to deliver it to him, he likes your book!" ”
Cheng Ze picked up a booklet on the table, and wanted to hit Hua Banxia angrily, but in the end, it fell lightly on Hua Banxia's head.
Hua Banxia seems to be really busy and stupid, these days he has been busy keeping bills and clearing bills, and only Qiao Zheng is dangling in front of his eyes, and he has almost forgotten about the booklet.
"You said what if you forced Wanli to be anxious and took you away to draw drawings for them, but you don't know where you are locked and locked, what if you are bullied?" Cheng Ze's brain was opened, and all kinds of delusions of being killed were staged.
"Okay, okay, close your crow's mouth", Hua Banxia couldn't stand Cheng Ze's broken thoughts, "I'll look for you when I'm free today, let's not talk about this now."
Hua Banxia saw that Hua Qingqing bought it and came back early, so she hurriedly asked Cheng Ze to shut up, so that Hua Qingqing heard something that she shouldn't hear, and it was not good to cause panic in the family.
"Cheng, then what are you busy with today, I'll accompany you", Cheng Ze put away his worried face very cooperatively, and returned to his previous ruffian appearance.
"Sister, buy it back early", Hua Qingqing was holding a few bags of oiled paper in her arms, and there were a few hot steamed buns and buns inside.
Hua Banxia nodded, reached out and took a steamed bun, tore it open and ate it with the boiled water on the table.
Cheng Ze watched Hua Banxia leisurely eat the steamed buns in his hand, frowned a little incomprehensible, and said with a little disgust, "You eat this in the morning?" ”
Hua Banxia chewed something in his mouth and couldn't answer, just nodded, and raised the steamed bun in his hand towards Cheng Ze, and reached over to feed him.
"Hey...... No, no, I've had breakfast", Cheng Ze was so frightened that he blocked his hands in front of him, and his body shrank back involuntarily.
Seeing this, Hua Banxia shrugged his shoulders indifferently and continued to eat breakfast with every bite.
It's a bit simple, oh no, it's too simple! But it's still much better than before, before I had to deliver the goods, and I had to eat two bites every day, which was as leisurely as it is now.
