During the video call, Gao Hangfeng smiled bitterly at me and said, "It's okay to be busy, aren't everyone busy for life?" So, after I'm gone, how is the tavern now? Is it still the same as before, in a low period? ”

"It's not like that, I planned an event a few days ago, last night was the first day of the event, and there are two days left, and the effect is still quite good, mainly because Wei Lan and Mannie came to help last night, to be honest, here in Kyoto City, I am really grateful to these friends around me."

I smiled self-deprecatingly and continued, "Otherwise, I'm really worried that I won't be able to make it through a lot of the hard times I've been in. ”

Gao Hangfeng smiled at me, put down his mobile phone, lit a cigarette, and said: "Hey, in the final analysis, life is your own, just work hard, before we have the ability, all we can do is take care of ourselves first...... No matter how many and how good friends are, they can only be the icing on the cake in our lives, let's work together! ”

In this afternoon, Gao Hangfeng and I had a video chat, and we chatted for about ten or twenty minutes, after which he said that he was going to clean the newly rented house, and I had to continue my work in the afternoon.

……

At about five o'clock in the afternoon, I took the color printed leaflet and some document content printed from the outside, if there is no problem, then from tomorrow, I will go out one by one to find businesses near the commercial plaza to discuss cooperation.

After the leaflet was printed in color, I simply went and distributed it to the merchants near the tavern.

Sure enough, when I was distributing the leaflets of the business district plan alone, several nearby businesses just regarded me as a part-time young man and ruthlessly kicked me out.

To be friendly, they just happily motioned for me to put my things down and leave their store.

This scene of hitting a wall everywhere reminds me of the time at noon today, when I saw Gao Hangfeng's words in the circle of friends.

"Everything is difficult at the beginning", this sentence is like an aftersound, has been echoing in my mind, as long as there is a chance, then don't give up, not today, it's a big deal to continue to talk from house to house tomorrow, I don't believe that it will always hit a wall like this.

After returning to the hometown tavern, I sat on a chair in the bar, checked the background data of the computer, and saw that the next night's event was about to start, and all the staff were looking forward to tonight's event like me.

One of the employees walked up to me, smiled and asked, "Hey, Brother Fan, do you say ...... Mr. Qin, will they come over to us again tonight to participate in the activities of our tavern? After all, the three of them brought so many people to our tavern last night, and the activities at the scene were quite popular! ”

I handed him a cigarette and explained with a smile: "I don't think I will come here tonight, the three of them are all my friends, it's normal to come over and have a show, but it can't be every day, you say, right?" ”

He touched the hair on the back of his head, nodded with a wry smile and said, "It seems to make sense...... It's just a pity that I think it's a bit of a pity, if only they had come over these nights. ”

I smiled and comforted: "It's no pity, if we open a store, and all the business is supported by relatives and friends, then our store is meaningless, right?" So, it's better to rely on yourself...... Alright, you go and get busy with your business first. ”

After the staff had been busy, I sat at the bar, lit a cigarette, picked up my phone and prepared to order a takeout to eat, and then I had to go back to work.

……

After three days, this round of activities in the tavern has also ended the past day, and during the daytime of these two days, I also continued to strive for time to negotiate cooperation with merchants.

Finally, the hard work pays off! I talked to two merchants who were willing to cooperate with our hometown tavern, one was a fish grill, and the other was a vocational training institution not far from the commercial plaza.

The reason why these two businesses are willing to cooperate with our tavern is because their business model is similar to our tavern in the industry, such as entertainment.

That night, at about six o'clock in the afternoon, when I was just thinking about ordering takeout to eat, Qin Weilan called me.

With a brisk laugh, Qin Weilan took the lead in saying to me, "Jingfan, you should be ready for dinner, right?" ”

I changed my sitting position, leaned back on the back of the chair, and said with a smile: "You really guessed correctly, I was just thinking about using my phone to order takeout, and you called me...... What's wrong? ”

"That's right, don't order takeout, it's Saturday night, and it just so happens that the events in your tavern were all held yesterday, right? I bought a lot of vegetables at my own place, and it happened to be so cold today, why don't you come and play hot pot with me? ”

I was stunned for a moment, Qin Weilan invited me to her house to play hot pot, although I have known her for a long time, I have never been to where she lives.

Seeing my brief silence, Qin Weilan immediately added, "What, do you feel inconvenient?" Jingfan, don't worry about this, I live alone, and no one else will come, is it possible...... Are you afraid that I have set up a 'Hongmen Banquet' for you? ”

I smiled bitterly twice, cleared my throat, and said, "That's not what I mean, okay then, I'll clean up now, I'll go over to you later, you can send me an address." ”

"No problem, that's right, no matter how busy you are at work, you have to relax yourself appropriately...... I'll send you the address right away, come here, by the way, don't buy anything if you remember, I have everything here, I'm ready to eat and drink. ”

“OK。”

After hanging up the phone, only a short time passed, Qin Weilan sent me the address of her home, it is a high-end community in Wutong District, it is said that in that community, the identity of the people who live in it is either rich or expensive, and the house price is as high as more than 100,000 square meters, and it is almost just the ordinary price in that high-end community, if the layout and location are better, the price is a lot higher.

Ordinary people like me are simply daunted, saying that if they want to buy a house there, then I guess I have to work hard since ancient times, and I can't even think of it!

I put away my phone, walked out of the bar, and explained a few words to a few employees, saying that I would not be back to the tavern tonight, and that if there was anything I needed to deal with, I would call me at any time.

After walking out of the door of the tavern, I got in the car and rushed to the address Qin Weilan sent me.

On the way there, I couldn't help but think: there are so many shops and stores outside, and they also open their own stores to do business, but there are too many store owners, their lives are relatively free, and they don't need to go to the store every day to "sit down", so what about myself, when will I reach such a level?

Slowly, this gradually became my goal now, because when I can do it to the same extent as theirs, it means that the tavern business is already very good, and there are several stores, and someone has already kept them in order for me!
