When he returned home, Qi Yuanchao was sleeping soundly.

It also hurt the old father.

I worked a night shift in the factory last night, and I started to help Qi Jie dredge up the relationship before I got home in the morning, and I was called up by Cao Guilan to stew meat before I had time to sleep in the morning.

Now he can finally sleep for a while.

"Be quiet, my dad is sleeping."

The two of them unloaded the bamboo skewers tied to the back seat of the bicycle, and then Qi Jie went to the kitchen to get a large basin, took half a basin of water, and poured all the baking soda in the house.

After a few stirs, start cleaning the bamboo skewers.

In the past few years, when Qi Jie set up a stall to sell snacks, he had to deal with bamboo sticks.

After the new millennium, in order to pursue sales and aesthetics, but also to prevent mold, merchants will add bleaching powder and other chemicals to the production process of bamboo skewers.

Such bamboo skewers are beautiful, but they are harmful to the human body.

Therefore, before Qi Jie uses it, he will carefully clean the bamboo skewer several times.

After washing, boil it again, so that the bamboo skewers can be used with confidence.

But the funny thing is that Qi Jie's business in his previous life was originally good, but because of this toss, the business was not good, because the boiled bamboo skewers were black in color, and there were no white bamboo skewers that looked clean.

- Customers ultimately look at their appearance.

There are no competitors in this life, and no one has bought the boiled bamboo skewers yet...... Qi Jie put the bamboo skewers into the basin of water in batches, put on gloves and scrubbed them carefully, and then put them in clean water to soak.

Nowadays, bamboo skewers are basically made by hand, and there are many burrs, and you must wear gloves to clean them, otherwise your hands will be full of cuts.

When he was cleaning, Zhang Jun added half a pot of water to the pot under Qi Jie's arrangement and began to burn the fire.

Although there are already gas canisters used at this time, people who have yards in Wuzhou are still used to burning pots, especially those who live near Liushan, where the mountains are full of shrubs, and it is enough to burn the fire by cutting them casually.

The gas stove at home is basically used only in emergencies.

After all, the food made of gas is far less fragrant than the pot burning.

After all the bamboo sticks were washed, Qi Jie washed them twice, put them in a pot and boiled them for about half an hour, and then took them out and cooled them with cold water first.

"Why do you want to be cold?"

Zhang Jun asked curiously on the side.

Qi Jie smiled:

"Bamboo skewers are easy to deform when they are hot, and they are set when they are cool."

The two of them set up a shelf on the dining table in the yard, and spread out all the bamboo sticks to dry on it.

Wait until it has dried and is ready to use.

"What's next?"

Zhang Jun is very interested in the new snacks.

I always want to see what tricks Qi Jie will play.

Qi Jie says:

"Then you go home and rest, I'll go buy some spices or something."

said that he was buying, but in fact, Qi Jie only had a few cents left on him at this time, and his only choice was to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives and continue to collect Guo Hongxing's wool.

Of course, it's not accurate.

Because Qi Jie will pay back the money after he earns it.

He pushed his bicycle across the railroad and came to the supply and marketing cooperatives again.

"Who are you looking for?!"

It's the salesman in the morning again, and it's the expression of the cold eyebrows pointing at Qianfu.

Qi Jie said helplessly:

"I'm coming to my uncle, I've been here in the morning......"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the salesman:

"Director Guo said, you are not his nephew, said that if you come in again, we will fight out!"

Tut...... Lao Guo also had a little emotion.

Isn't it just that I took two more moisture-proof mats with gluten on credit, which is really stingy.

He walked to the top of the stairs on his own:

"That's a joke for you, my uncle likes to joke the most."

Qi Jie came upstairs without face, and entered Guo Hongxing's office without knocking on the door.

At this time, Guo Hongxing was lying on the sofa reading the newspaper, and when he saw Qi Jie coming in, he immediately spread his hands and covered his face with the newspaper.

Obviously, Comrade Lao Guo was very reluctant to see this goods.

"Uncle, I've come to see you."

Guo Hongxing opened the newspaper and glanced at Qi Jie:

"I also took two jujube cakes in the morning, and even the jujube cakes were gone in the afternoon...... Say, what do you want? ”

Qi Jie walked over and raised his hand to open the newspaper from his face.

"Uncle, don't be like this, I'm embarrassed to talk to you like a devil sweeping the village."

He didn't say anything about the seasoning on credit, but sat down with Guo Hongxing and chatted for a while.

According to the development of his previous life, Guo Hongxing would be pushed down by his deputy at the end of the year, so Qi Jie planned to remind Guo Hongxing and change the fate of being backstabbed by his deputy.

He talked about some management tips.

In his previous life, he was also the owner of a restaurant, and Qi Jie still has some experience in management.

When the conversation was almost over, Guo Hongxing stood up from the sofa:

"Say, what do you want this time, go around in such a big circle, I don't believe you went to chat with me on a trip."

Qi Jie was not polite:

"I'd like to buy some spices."

Guo Hongxing knew that he couldn't resist this guy, so he got up and said:

"Let's go, let's go, I'll go down with you."

Since it's a seasoning, it's nothing more than oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, so I'll help him directly put it on later.

Anyway, it's only three or five yuan.

There is no need to make another IOU.

Coming downstairs, the old Guo Chong salesman said:

"He'll get him whatever he wants, and call me at the checkout."

After that, he went to the door to smoke.

Qi Jie stood in front of the counter and began to choose the spices he was going to use.

The seasonings of this era are not adulterated, and the quality of chili powder, star anise powder, cinnamon powder, clove powder, Sichuan pepper powder and other seasonings is very high.

After Qi Jie selected them one by one, he bought salt, sugar, sweet noodle sauce, white sesame seeds and other seasonings and ingredients.

After the pick, Lao Guo happened to finish smoking.

He looked at the salesperson behind the counter and asked:

"How much?"

After saying that, he began to dig into his pockets.

The salesman took the abacus and calculated it, and reported a number to Lao Guo:

"Fifty-three dollars, seven cents and five."

Lao Guo: "......"

He stuffed the money he was about to take out back into the pocket of his clothes again, and said to Qi Jie angrily:

"Why do you spend so much money on a seasoning? Are you going back to wholesale? ”

Qi Jie smiled:

"It's atmospheric, Uncle Guo, you have to buy enough of this material at one time, otherwise you won't be able to get it...... Your seasoning here is also too incomplete, there are no several, and your people have not even heard of it. ”

Lao Guo was happy:

"Hey, you're complaining on credit, believe it or not, I'm not selling it to you?"

As he was talking, Wei Shengnan suddenly walked in from the door.

She is still dressed in the same dress as before, the chiffon fabric makes her skirt a little more light and fluffy, and even the whole person looks fairy, and the delicate facial features and tall figure make this fairy more real and three-dimensional.

Rao is Qi Jie has been in countless night games in his previous life and has come into contact with countless beauties, but when he sees Wei Shengnan, he will still be impressed by her beauty.

What a fairy who fell into the world.

Qi Jie sighed in his heart, and was just about to continue arguing with Guo Hongxing, but who knew that this big beauty suddenly took the initiative to speak:

"Eh, Qi Jie? You're here to buy something, huh? ”

Wei Shengnan and Qi Jie were classmates in junior high school, but after graduation, one went to high school, and the other went to the steel mill's own steel children's school to learn about steelmaking.

Last year, after Wei Shengnan was admitted to Fudan University, he went to Liushan to play, and overheard Qi Jie bragging to his friends on the mountain, saying that he would also be admitted to Fudan University.

This made Wei Shengnan impressed, so when they met again, she took the initiative to come over and say hello.

By the way, I would like to ask him where he has come in his review.

"yes, come and buy something, you're coming back from summer vacation?"

Wei Shengnan nodded, and was just about to ask Qi Jie about his review, but who knew that this guy turned around and began to urge Guo Hongxing:

"Hurry up and bring the pen and paper, I have to go to the vegetable market to buy the ingredients after writing the IOU, you don't have everything here, it's really disappointing."

Guo Hongxing threw the pen and paper behind the counter:

"Give it, give it, what kind of cow are you putting here on credit?"

Qi Jie took a pen and paper and said while writing an IOU:

"If the state liberalizes the purchase of grain and oil, you will invite me to the sedan chair, and I will not come...... What time is it today? ”

"7th, August 7th."

A gentle and nice voice sounded next to it.

Qi Jie turned his face, only to find that Wei Shengnan was watching himself write an IOU.

"Do you need money? I'm still a little ...... here."

Seeing Qi Jie making an IOU, Wei Shengnan was a little incredible, and couldn't help but want to help this handsome boy, after all, he was determined to take the Fudan exam.

It's much better than the young people in the steel mill who are full of wine and meat.

Qi Jie waved his hand and said:

"No, I have a principle in life, that is, I never borrow money from women."

He scribbled his name and pressed his own handprint.

The second IOU is freshly baked.

After finishing this, he opened the ice cream box next to him, picked out the latest popular snowman ice cream from it and handed it to Wei Shengnan:

"Thank you for your concern, please eat ice cream."

Wei Shengnan was a little surprised, and didn't know whether to take it or not.

Guo Hongxing on the side laughed angrily:

"You stinky boy, you only invited people to eat ice cream after you finished the IOU, you paid this money?"

Qi Jie says:

"Director Wei has helped the supply and marketing cooperatives a lot, why don't you invite people to eat ice cream? Look at your stingy ...... Hurry up and eat it, classmate Wei, it will melt later. ”

Wei Shengnan observed his junior high school classmate with some curiosity, and always felt that he was different from other boys.

She didn't say anything polite to Qi Jie anymore, took it, tore open the package and took a bite.

Just about to bring the topic to studying, Qi Jie stuffed the spices he bought into a newly bought stainless steel barrel and left the supply and marketing cooperative.

Outside, Qi Jie hung the stainless steel bucket on the handlebars and went to the vegetable market to buy other ingredients.

In front of a stall, he carefully selected some shallots, ginger, onions, and coriander and celery.

After picking it out, I realized that the few cents on my body were not enough at all.

"Uncle, my house lives in the back, I wander here every day, and I'll give you money in two days......"

Before Qi Jie finished speaking, the vegetable seller put a sign in front of him that "no credit is owed for a small business".

Hey, he's also a principled person.

Qi Jie got up and scratched his head, and he couldn't call Zhang Jun to come over to support at this time.

He was just about to give up, when he suddenly saw Wei Shengnan, who had finished buying things at the supply and marketing cooperative, walking towards this side, still holding the snowman-shaped ice cream in his hand.

"I've invited her to ice cream, so wouldn't it be too much to borrow ten yuan?"

Qi Jie muttered in his heart and strode towards Wei Shengnan......
