Chapter 17 Grocery Store
readx; In this way, the two families almost walked around the county, and the last place they came to was a small shop that usually traded prey, which had been open in the county for an unknown number of years, and the shopkeeper had changed for several generations. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Not only the deciduous village, but also other villages in the county also like to trade with this store, because no matter how the shopkeeper of this store changes, the price he gives is the same as his father's generation.
I remember that many years ago, there was a shopkeeper who deducted a lot of Orion's money in order to increase the profits of the store when he first inherited the store, but he was knocked out of the house by his father who broke a leg in less than three months.
And the shopkeeper's father went door-to-door to the deceived hunter's house to make up for the remaining money, so the hunters near the county town are also willing to come to this store to trade, even if the shopkeeper's money is not enough to owe it first, anyway, the store's reputation is very high and he is not afraid of not paying back.
Before entering the store, the parents of the two families first told Wang Yu and Li Yu the story of the store, which made Wang Yu and Li Yu admire, especially Wang Yu, under the influence of the previous life rich but three generations, Wang Yu couldn't think of how a store could always be so honest.
After all, every two or three generations there will always be a descendant who is a loser, right? Or not a loser, even if there is a descendant like the shopkeeper who was broken and wants to make his store as big as possible, it is impossible for the store to maintain this kind of credibility all the time, after all, there will always be a poor capital turnover. Or when it's hard, isn't it?
With these curiosities, Wang Yu and Li Yu came to the front of the store with their parents, the store is slightly old but has a quaint feeling, when they walk into the store there is a different feeling, although the store is not decorated with magnificence, but the placement of all things gives people a very regular feeling, seats, counters, wall decoration.
All the facilities in the store make people feel very well-behaved, as if from these decorations, you can feel that this family is a very well-behaved family. This also gives people a feeling that they can be trusted, the rules represent self-discipline, and a person who can be self-disciplined is also easier to trust.
"Didn't you just trade a few days ago? You have to pay attention to your body, you can't overwork, it's not good for your health. The shopkeeper said when he saw Wang Hu.
"No, this time I'm just bringing my children to see and see. Wang Hu said.
"Come, call Uncle Sun quickly," Li Yuan said to Wang Yu and Li Yu.
"Uncle Sun" Wang Yu and Li Yu shouted, and by the way, they also looked at the shopkeeper.
The current shopkeeper of this store is called Sun Li, who took over the store from his father five years ago, Sun Li's appearance is mediocre and has no outstanding characteristics, with a Chinese face, medium-sized eyes, a slightly straight nose, and slightly thick lips, everything gives people a feeling of being ordinary and not threatening.
But just like Sun Li's name, from the first time they met, Wang Yu and Li Yu felt the word "li" from his body, the sitting posture they saw when they first entered the store, the posture they saw when they got up to say hello, and even the distance they kept when they spoke and the look at each other, all of which were extremely polite, and would not give people a sense of distance or closeness.
"Good, good, good children," Sun Li said
"Uncle Sun, how old is this shop?" asked Wang Yu curiously.
"It's far away, I can't remember it clearly, it's still there in one or two hundred years," Sun Li said.
"I heard my father say that this shop has maintained such a high reputation since its ancestors, how did my uncle do it?" Wang Yu asked.
"Hehe, in fact, it's not difficult, our ancestors have been calling us to be reasonable and abide by the rules since we were children, and over time, every generation of us is so reasonable and obedient, and there will be no harm to nature. Sun Li said with a smile.
"But I've heard that one of your generations has been kicked out of the hunters' money?" asked Li Yu.
"Yes, that person is still my grandfather, who had a big heart and wanted to open a store in every corner of the world, which was not a bad thing.
However, in order to increase profits, the grandfather deducted a lot of money from the hunters, which caused the life of the hunters in this area to become very bad at that time, and then the grandfather's father was very angry when he found out about it, and broke the grandfather's leg in a fit of rage and blasted him out of the house.
and went from house to house to make up the money for the hunters. Since then, there has been an ancestral motto in the family motto that no matter what, it is not allowed to withhold Orion's money. Sun Li said
Seeing that Li Yu and Wang Yu talked about the topic and led to family affairs, Sun Li talked eloquently, even if he talked about his family's troubles, it was from an objective point of view, and there was no embarrassment or subjective evaluation at all, as if he was talking about other people's affairs.
"Then what happened to that grandfather?" asked Wang Yu.
Later, after the grandfather was thrown out of the house, he realized where he had made a mistake and regretted it, but because he did not dare to intercede with his father, he never returned, and I heard that he later opened the same grocery store in other counties to do some grocery trading, but he no longer dared to deduct money.
Even so, it only took 20 years for this grandfather to make this storefront business all over the empire, but because the grandfather had always felt extremely guilty about the wrong things he had done back then, he didn't dare to go home until he died. Sun Li said.
"Tsk, this grandfather is really a cow, if it weren't for the mistake he made at the beginning, it is estimated that our grocery store would have opened all over the continent by now. Li Yu said with emotion.
"Hehe, it's nothing, even if the whole continent is opened, it's still like this. Sun Li said.
"Uncle Sun, I don't agree with this sentence, if you don't see the beauty of the world in your life, wouldn't it be in vain to stay in this one-third of an acre of land" Wang Yu disagreed.
In fact, for Sun Li's words, Wang Yu agreed in his last life, anyway, when he died, he was just such a box, what is the use of earning a huge business? But Wang Yu, who was reborn, suddenly changed his mind, and if he didn't fight hard in life, he would really regret it. When Wang Yu was first reborn, he regretted that he didn't go out for a walk at the beginning, and all he could remember was games and novels.
"Reasonable, your words are extremely reasonable, but if everyone in this world goes to see the beauty of the world. Then who will guard this one-third of an acre of land?" Sun Li first praised Wang Yu twice, and then retorted.
"When people return home, since they return home, they will naturally guard their home," Wang Yu said not to be outdone.
"Okay, okay, you two are little kids, and the other is the little owner of the grocery store, what do you do with all these things. Seeing that the two were arguing, Wang Hu helplessly dissuaded.
Hearing Wang Hu's dissuasion, although Sun Li and Wang Yu both felt that they were reasonable, they were not arguing, just like Wang Hu said, one of them is a little kid and the other is a small owner of a grocery store, and there are naturally people in this world to give answers to things in this world, so what's the use of them arguing for a long time.
"Alright, this blacksmith's weapon is almost ready, let's go back and get a new weapon," Li Yuan said.
"Well, I also know your Uncle Sun, we are almost going back, it is difficult to walk when it gets dark," Wang Hu also said.
"Okay, then goodbye Uncle Sun," Wang Yu Li Yu said.
"Well, I have time to come and play, but I have to warn you, hunting is dangerous, you should be more careful not to get hurt," Sun Tzu finally reminded.
"Got it, Uncle Sun," the two replied
So the group returned to the blacksmith's shop.
"Uncle Fang, are our weapons ready," Li Yu shouted impatiently when he walked to the blacksmith shop
"Okay, okay, let's see how your Uncle Fang's craftsmanship is," Uncle Fang said
Hearing Li Yu's shout, Uncle Fang walked out from the backyard of the blacksmith shop with a newly made knife and sword, and handed them to the two little guys. After Wang Yu got his sword, he looked at it carefully, the sword became longer The sword that Lao Li Tou gave him at the beginning was built according to the size of his body at that time, and he was afraid that too long would be harmful to his cultivation.
But later, Wang Yu grew up, and the sword became smaller and smaller. Like a dagger, it made Wang Yu very uncomfortable, but because the price of the iron sword was not expensive, Wang Yu did not expect to build one, after all, the family was not rich. Through this distress, you can also change your own sword. The iron sword is not light to pick up, and it seems that Uncle Fang has added iron to it.
"Wowhaha, I have a new weapon, and it's really a lot easier," Li Yu picked up his knife and played it a few times.
"Haha, okay, this weapon is still in hand, right? I put a lot of iron in it, I was afraid that it would be too heavy for you to use it inconveniently" Uncle Fang said.
"It's okay, it's okay, although it's a little heavier than the previous one, but it's a little bit of a joke to me," Li Yu said.
"I'm fine, the weight is just right, thank you Uncle Fang for bothering," Wang Yu said.
"It's okay, I've known your two fathers for more than ten years, so it's natural to fight better to build weapons for you two boys," Uncle Fang said.
"Old Fang, how much do these two weapons cost?" Wang Hu said.
"Forget it, these two little nephews are the first to fight weapons, and I'm embarrassed to collect money," Uncle Fang said.
"That's not good, friendship is friendship, trading is trading, your old house is good craftsmanship, all the hunters next to the county town come to you to fight weapons, if you don't collect money, you won't lose money" Li Yuan said.
"Yes, Uncle Fang, we won't dare to fight weapons in the future if you are like this," Wang Yu also persuaded.
"I said if I don't accept it, I won't accept it, what are you two chirping. Uncle Fang saw that everyone persuaded him and said angrily.
"Even if these two weapons are given to you by Uncle Fang, what good prey will be hunted for you in the future, Uncle Fang, I will just get some meat," Uncle Fang said.
"Knowing Uncle Fang, we will definitely want to bring some to Uncle Fang when we get good things in the future," Wang Yu and Li Yu said.
Seeing that it was useless to persuade themselves, Wang Hu and Li Yuan also let their two boys accept the weapons, the old man who struck iron was a cheerful person, and dealing with it was all based on preference, saying that giving was giving, and it was useless to persuade himself, and he would tell his own boys to bring more meat to others in the future.
In this way, the two families returned to their village after saying goodbye to Uncle Fang, although they heard that the two little ones were seriously injured and frightened all the way, but then they saw that the two children were okay and happily went shopping, after all, the two families have to do a lot of work at home, and they usually don't have time to take the child to the county to visit, which is also a good experience.
