Chapter 154: Sharing Happiness with Brother Cao
I didn't take a taxi home, but went to Brother Cao's stinky tofu shop.
I want to eat Brother Cao's stinky tofu.
To be precise, I was trying to find someone to share my happiness with.
Publishing an article for the first time in my life, that happiness, that pride, and that excitement are really indescribable!
No, don't say that I came to this world, even when I was unjustly killed, I didn't know a word, even if I sometimes saw abandoned old newspapers, I was in awe, although I didn't know every word on the newspaper, but my heart was full of respect, where would I have thought that one day the words I wrote could also be published in the newspaper!
Happy, so happy!
It's a pity that no one shared this happiness with me.
So, I thought of Brother Cao.
When I arrived at Brother Cao's shop, I found two places that surprised me.
First of all, Brother Cao's store expanded, merging the original grocery store next door, and the original dilapidated tables and stools were gone, all of them were replaced with new ones and stools.
Secondly, it was not yet nine o'clock when I arrived, and there were no customers in the store, only Brother Cao was cleaning up alone, as if he was about to close.
A few days ago, this should have been the busiest time for business.
The expansion of the store, but I expected, it was just a matter of a little later, and it was not a big surprise, but to my surprise, the store expanded, why did the business not work? Why is Brother Cao the only one left? What about his cousins?
"Brother Cao, why are you alone, what about my sister-in-law?"
Brother Cao looked up and saw that it was me, and hurriedly put down the work in his hand, and said while untying his apron: "Oh, it's Brother Xiaoda, I haven't seen you here for a few days!" ”
I said, "I'm missing your stinky tofu, and here it is." ”
Brother Cao threw the uncovered apron onto the table next to him and said, "That's unfortunate, you won't be able to eat my stinky tofu today." ”
I said, "What the hell is going on?" What about sister-in-law? ”
Brother Cao said, "Your sister-in-law went next door to get her hair." Today's stinky tofu is sold out, and you can't eat it. It just so happened that I went to the braised meat shop next door to get some pig ears and came back, and we two drinks well. ”
I said, "Why is the stinky tofu sold out so early?" Why don't you prepare more? ”
Brother Cao said, "You sit down first, and then I'll tell you slowly when I come back." ”
Watching Brother Cao go to the braised meat shop diagonally opposite, thinking about the stinky tofu he said was sold out, I felt relieved. Sold out, that is, it's not that the business is bad, it's super good.
Looking at those newly replaced tables and stools, I was very happy for Brother Cao and his family.
After two minutes, Brother Cao came back, holding two packets of meat and vegetables and a two-pot head in his hand.
He said, "You don't have to fight with me today, do you?" I'll have to invite you once. It's been so long, and you haven't even given me the opportunity to invite you to eat a piece of stinky tofu, so I'm very sorry not to go! When I'm tired, I like to drink some liquor to relieve fatigue, can you drink liquor? ”
I said, "No problem, I actually like baijiu and I'm not interested in beer." ”
"That's right, let's have a good drink." Brother Cao took two small bowls to pour the wine, and said: "That's the case, half a month ago, the grocery store next door was transferred, and I took it over and expanded it, you can also see it, those old tables and stools were thrown away, and they were all replaced with new ones." When customers come, it's comfortable to sit! ”
I asked, "What will the business look like after the expansion?" ”
"Well, it's much better, and the daily income is not less than 5,000. I also prepared for the recent business today, but there were so many takeout orders that it was sold out at once. Later people can only say sorry to others. Come, drink wine, eat pig's ears, and pork belly, all of which are appetizers. ”
We touched our glasses and took a sip.
I said, "It's good to have a lot of takeout." ”
Brother Cao said: "There are takeaways every day, and the female college student who helps me deliver takeaways can earn more than 20 yuan every day." Guess how much she earned today, thirty-eight! The little girl was so happy that she didn't leave until she had just finished taking the account. Usually too busy, your sister-in-law can't even take care of tidying up her hair, today is just right, closed early, I asked her to go to the hairdresser next to her to get her hair. ”
I said, "Brother Cao, I have good news for you here." ”
Brother Cao said: "Tell me quickly, what good news? ”
I handed him a copy of the newspaper.
Brother Cao said: "There is a lot of news in the newspaper, both good and bad, what is so strange!" ”
I flipped the newspaper to the supplement and showed it to him, saying, "This is the article I wrote and published." ”
"What? What did you write? All the articles you write are published in newspapers? That's amazing! Then I'm going to take a good look. Brother Cao happily picked up the newspaper and read it, and read out my name, "Dalong, Dalong, it's really your name!" It turns out that you still have this level, it's amazing, it's amazing! ”
Seeing Brother Cao's joy, happier than he was when he gave birth to a son, I finally felt the pleasure of someone analyzing the joy.
I said, "It's nothing bad, but this is really my first post, and I'm really happy, so I'm going to share it with you, and I know you'll be happy for me." ”
"A must! Your pleasure is my pleasure! That's more joyful than making money! ”
I said, "Thank you, Brother Cao, come, take a bite!" ”
"It's a must, take a big bite, it's great news!" Brother Cao said, "Let's celebrate for you, and when your sister-in-law comes back and asks her to see it, let her read it to me." She is more literate than I am, and I can't even read the whole newspaper. ”
Brother Cao stood up as he spoke, folded the newspaper very seriously, and locked it into the drawer of the table.
I said, "Brother Cao, your bucket is a money-locker, lock a newspaper in it, what is this!" ”
Brother Cao said: "This thing of yours is worth more than money!" I need to lock it up so I don't forget it or break it! Let's eat and drink. ”
The two of us took another big bite.
Brother Cao said: "Without your original guidance, I really wouldn't dare to think like this." Now that the store has expanded, the business is much better, and the money is much more profitable than before, your sister-in-law and I are talking about you every day. You are our great benefactor! ”
I said, "Brother Cao, don't always say anything about benefactors or not, we are brothers, so don't be polite." I just gave you an idea, the main thing is that you have a lively brain and know how to operate. ”
Brother Cao said: "No matter how active my brain is, it's useless, no one will guide me, it's all worthless." That's why you reminded me of what you said at the beginning, and I dared to do this, so I have where I am today. Do you know? Why didn't I send an advertisement to your company to send stinky tofu later? I'm afraid it will affect you. ”
I said, "I see, I wonder why I can't see your stinky tofu advertisement later." ”
Brother Cao said: "In your building, except for the 12th floor where your company is located, I have always advertised other companies, and they often have people calling to ask for takeout, and there is a demand for more than 100 pieces of stinky tofu every day." But I just don't advertise your company, I'm afraid it will affect you! ”
I said, "It's okay, you should send the advertisement in the future, and whoever likes to eat will call you for takeout, and it doesn't matter who you are doing business." ”
Brother Cao said: "I'm afraid it will affect you!" ”
I said, "No, nothing." ”
Brother Cao said, "Isn't it? I don't think there's something quite right, your company ......."
