Chapter 123: Rub off the heat

After dealing with the matter at hand, Xu An stood up and was about to go to the No. 1 store to see the remaining inventory today and what things needed to be replenished, when he was suddenly called out.

"Xu An."

When Xu An heard this, he looked back and found that the person who called him was actually Li Xindong.

Why is this guy still in the store so late today, he is the first to settle the salary and leave on weekdays, and he can't find a word if he wants to find him.

"Xindong, what's wrong, is there something wrong with me?" Xu An walked towards Li Xindong and asked casually.

Walking up to Li Xindong, Xu An found that he was holding a suitcase in his hand, and there was a backpack on the suitcase, looking like he was going out to play.

"Are you planning to catch the tail of the summer vacation and have some fun before going to college?" Xu An smiled and gave Li Xindong a punch to the shoulder: "Okay, you know, you can rest assured to play, if you want to work for a few days when you come back after playing, just come to me directly." ”

"It's not." Li Xindong shook his head and said with some embarrassment: "Xu An, your store is closed to the public after half past two in the afternoon, right?" ”

"yes, what's wrong?" Xu An was a little confused about Li Xindong's question, and he didn't understand what he wanted to do.

Li Xindong bit his teeth on his lower lip fiercely, his mouth moved several times, and he mustered up the courage to ask: "Xu An, can I rest in the shop at night?" ”

Xu An's brain couldn't react when he heard this, and he lost his mind for a moment: "What's wrong, what's going on?" ”

There was silence between the two for a while, and then Li Xindong lowered his head and said lightly: "I ran away from home, I don't want to go to my relatives' house, I don't want my family to know where I went." ”

The atmosphere was silent again, and Xu An's mind was spinning wildly at the moment, rummaging through the memories of his previous life.

In my memory, there was no such thing in my last life, huh?

Or did he not have a deep relationship with Li Xindong in his previous life, so he didn't know about it?

"It's okay if you're embarrassed, I'll think of other ways." Li Xindong saw that Xu An didn't answer for a long time, thinking that he was thinking about how to refuse himself, so he hurriedly gave himself a step.

After last night's quarrel, Li Xindong sat on the ground and looked at the fragments of banknotes on the ground and thought for a long, long time

Eventually, he decided to leave the house! He wants to work to make money! He's going to repeat it! He's going to college!

After making sure that his parents were asleep, he quietly packed his various documents, high school books and other important items into his suitcase.

In the morning, when the sky was just shining a glimmer of light, he left the house with his suitcase, backpack on his back, and on his bicycle.

But after leaving home, he suddenly found that he had nowhere to go.

If you go to a relative's house, it won't be long before your parents will come and arrest you, either scolding you or beating you until you give in.

After one idea after another was rejected and one candidate was excluded, the name that finally appeared in my mind turned out to be my old classmate and boss - Xu An!

Xu's fast food restaurant is closed to the public after half past two in the afternoon, and theoretically, as long as Xu An has permission, he can hide here.

The parents only knew that they were going to catch jumping fish in the afternoon, but they didn't know that they were still working part-time as riders at Xu's fast food restaurant, and the risk of exposure was very low.

It's just that this request, whether it is made as a classmate or as an employee, is a bit too presumptuous.

But now myself, apart from that, there is no choice.

"Can you tell me what happened?" Xu An didn't agree directly, but he didn't say no, he needed to know the specific situation in order to make a correct judgment.

Li Xindong looked at Xu An and hesitated for a while, as if he included Xu An in the ranks of people who could be trusted, and finally opened his mouth to tell everything that had happened recently.

After listening to Li Xindong's story, Xu Anxin's thousand words finally turned into a simple action, and he reached out and patted Li Xindong's shoulder.

"On the second floor of the No. 3 store, the owner of the former fast food restaurant rested on it, and there was a simple bathroom to solve personal hygiene needs; There is also the futon I prepared for Kang Kang Lele at the No. 1 store, so you can use it first. ”

Before making this request, Li Xindong had simulated the scene of Xu An's consent or refusal countless times in his mind, and thought about how to persuade Xu An with many words, but now none of these preparations came in handy.

Li Xindong nodded, followed Xu An to the No. 1 store to move the futon, and then went to the No. 3 store to place his things.

Looking at this extremely simple arrangement, the corners of Li Xindong's mouth couldn't help but hook, and he turned his head to look at Xu An: "I'll get up early tomorrow morning to help, you treat me like a regular employee." ”

"Okay." Xu An did not refuse Li Xindong's request, at this time, only by agreeing to his request could he feel at ease.

Sometimes, a steaming bowl of noodle soup from a stranger can repair a lot of holes in someone who has left home.

At this moment, Li Xindong, those wounds that are invisible to the naked eye, are slowly healing.

After settling Li Xindong, Xu An returned to the second floor of the No. 2 store and began to count the inventory, register all the goods that needed to be replenished, and contact the supplier, Xu An finally recovered from Li Xindong's incident.

In this life, he found himself as a safe haven, and in his previous life, after he encountered such a thing, how did he carry it alone, and how did he finally develop into giving up repeating his studies and going to college, and living completely according to his family's arrangement.

Xu An is very glad that in this life, he can help.

After all the work at hand is done, Xu An will close the doors and windows of the No. 2 store and return to the No. 1 store, intending to lock the door and leave.

At this time, there was movement from the No. 3 store next door, and then Li Xindong was seen coming out of the No. 3 store in a different costume and bumping into Xu An.

Li Xindong was wearing a white T-shirt with a slight yellowing and a lot of stains on his upper body, a pair of high school uniform pants on his lower body, the trousers were tied in black stockings, and a pair of green liberation shoes were pedaled on his feet.

Walking around, you can see a bamboo fish basket tied behind you, and a few leaves are stuck in a less conspicuous position at the bottom of the fish basket, and a green flat fruit is wrapped in the middle of the leaf, which is the mangrove fruit - olive money.

"Are you going to go to sea?"

"Yes, I usually go to the beach to catch jumping fish after delivering a boxed lunch, and some fishmongers accept this, and the price is quite high." Li Xindong was a little embarrassed as he spoke, and then immediately added in a loud voice as if he had thought of something: "I will clean the clothes and come back, so as not to stain the store." ”

Jumping fish?

These three words were like a sharp claw grabbing a vague fragment from the depths of Xu An's memory.

In my memory, three years later, when I was in my third year of college, when I went home during the Spring Festival, I heard Uncle Dongliang say that the village had engaged in jumping fish farming, and the income was not bad.

Jumping fish farming, tidal flats, and the tidal flats in the southeast corner of Qianhai Town!

"Are you going to go to the tidal flat in the southeast corner of Qianhai Town?" Xu An asked tentatively.

"Yes." Li Xindong nodded: "Originally, I was arrested in the north, but there are many people in the village there, and it is not easy for the villagers to know about the situation now."

"I'll go with you and take a look." Xu An said excitedly.

Later, Xu An locked the door of the No. 1 store, rode an electric tricycle, carrying Li Xindong and Li Xindong's bicycle, and drove towards the tidal flat in the southeast corner of Qianhai Town.

Ocean Springs Beverages, Marketing Department Mid-Month Meeting.

At the beginning of the month, at the meeting on August 1, the manager of the marketing department set an ambitious target of 100,000 cans for sales in August.

It's the middle of August, half a month has passed, and it's only 83,627 cans away from the grand goal of 100,000 cans.

This meeting was undoubtedly a critique meeting, asking why people were not meeting sales expectations. What went wrong? Why did half a month have passed before more than 16,000 cans were sold?

"You have to take what I say to heart and take it seriously! The company has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on advertising, and 100,000 cans are just the basic goal. You can't even reach the basic goals......"

There was a lot of chatter in the back, and Liu Tong couldn't help but yawn.

I'm so sleepy, if only I could record a paragraph with my mobile phone, I can't sleep at night and listen to the absolute effect.

"Liu Tong, although your performance ranks first in the marketing department this month, the first place must be the first place, and you must have the courage to stand up and bear greater responsibility!"

Liu Tong, who was halfway through the yawn, was suddenly named, and quickly closed his mouth, pretending to listen carefully.

"I saw a fast food restaurant you are in charge of on the TV station yesterday, you can contact people more, strive to rub a wave of people's popularity in the second half of the month, and sell 30,000 cans of apple cider vinegar, can you do it?"

……

It's true that Xu's fast food restaurant is on TV, but Haiquan apple cider vinegar doesn't appear in a single shot, what's the heat? Where did you get such a big face?

Although Liu Tong thought so in his heart, what he said was: "Okay, I will contact Xu's fast food restaurant as soon as possible, and strive to sell 30,000 cans by the end of the month!"

The conference room burst into applause.

After the meeting ended, Liu Tong sat back in front of his workstation and found that the buckle was shaking wildly, and the top avatar happened to be from Xu's fast food restaurant.

'Liu Tong, send two hundred more cans every day in the future. ’

Liu Tong read this message three or four times to make sure that he was not mistaken, this was indeed a message from Xu's fast food restaurant.

More than two hundred cans a day, fifteen days that is three thousand cans.

Compared with 30,000 cans, this is indeed a drop in the bucket, but mosquito legs are also meat!

Think about it seriously, it seems that I haven't been to Xu's fast food restaurant for a long time, or why don't I go over tomorrow to have a look, talk about the old days, and make friends?

"Okay, Boss Xu, this will send your order to the factory, and it will be delivered on time tomorrow." ’
