Chapter 46: The Next Step
Xie Pozi served a bowl of cold noodles covered with lo-mei and a plate of cold noodles.
"Come, come, sit and talk while eating."
"It's a coincidence that you're here, and we're going to look for you after we close the stall today."
Xie Pozi sat on the other side of the table and talked to Li Zheng.
"Today, I collect booth fees nearby, and it's the turn of this street, hahahaha."
"I'm annoying." Li Zheng pretended to be self-destructive.
In the town, there is a stall fee for setting up a stall on this kind of street, and if he only occasionally sells a basket, he will not be counted.
But like the Xie family, they need to occupy a certain position to set up a stall for a long time, that is, to occupy the position of the public family, and they have to pay a certain fee every month.
"We know this, we have also lived in the town for many years, but it is generally collected at the end of the month, and it is good to count the days, this time it is in advance?"
Mrs. Xie has always known that there is such a thing, even if Lizheng does not come, they will take the initiative to hand it in at the end of the month.
It's just that it has changed suddenly, and you have to ask for a reason.
"In the past, it was like this, but the newly appointed prefectural magistrate notified me of the new regulations."
"In the future, it will be charged on a monthly basis, one hundred and fifty yuan per month. After you pay the fee, only you can set up a stall here for this month, and if you want to continue next month, you can register with me in advance. ”
"If you place an order 10 days in advance, you can give priority to renewing the booth to the person who paid the last fee."
"I'm afraid that just posting the creed, everyone may not be able to understand it, so I charge in advance, just enough to notify from door to door, and talk about this matter carefully."
Rizheng thinks this is a good thing. Previously, he would bring people with him to charge at the end of the month according to the actual number of days of the stall.
Actually, it's not convenient.
If there is a stop for one or two days, there may not be anyone who can pick up the vacant seats for that day or two, and there will be no charge.
If you meet so many people who like to take advantage, you have to check for a long time.
Now it's easy to do.
"Your location belongs to the main street, the location is good, the flow of people is large, and the cost will be higher than that of the vegetable market."
After hearing this, Mrs. Xie didn't think there was anything wrong with this method, and it didn't hurt her family.
As soon as the new county magistrate came, he first cared about the affairs of these little people, which might be a good thing.
It's just that... You can't just collect money and do nothing.
"This sounds good, and we don't have a problem with it, right...
Seeing Mrs. Xie's hesitant demeanor, Li Zheng couldn't help but be curious: "You just say it." ”
Only then did Mrs. Xie express her thoughts.
"Lizheng, we are willing to pay this money, but this money is paid, if someone comes to the stall to make trouble, is there anyone in the town to take care of it."
"We've only been setting up our stall for a short time, and we've already met twice, hey."
It's a meal of anger, is it easy for them ordinary people to live a little bit.
If they really come every once in a while, they won't be able to do business.
"This... The above only says that the booth fee is charged.,What you said about this.,I'm also.。。。 ”
Li Zheng didn't expect that Mrs. Xie was talking about such a thing.
I don't know how to reply for a while.
"You set up your stall well, pay attention to the safety of ingredients, presumably... There won't be any trouble, right? ”
Rizheng said tentatively.
There are some bastards in the town, but I haven't heard of anything serious.
It's not easy for him to react either.
"No, Lizheng, we are already doing a good deal, and the ingredients are safe for you to eat."
"It's not my wife who embarrass you, you look at our business...
"Grandma, what are you talking about?"
Before Mrs. Xie finished speaking, she was stopped by Hongdou, who rushed back in time.
I also heard the first two sentences of red beans, but in this public, it is really inappropriate to argue with Li Zheng.
If he really loses face, so that his later work is not good, and they have something to do in the future, I am afraid that they will have to sit on the cold bench.
"Grandpa Lizheng, I haven't seen you for a few days, how are you doing these days?"
Hongdou greeted politely, and at the same time secretly patted her grandmother's hand, signaling her to calm down first.
Li Zheng saw that someone had changed the topic, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
With so many people watching, if everyone comes out like this, I'm afraid he won't be able to do this job.
"It's done, it's done, hehe."
Hongdou smiled and said, "My grandma is a quick temper, but she really doesn't have any bad intentions, please don't be angry with her." ”
"She's also in a hurry, my family has been around recently... There are some troubles indeed. But don't worry, you can handle it. ”
Li Zheng went down the stairs and felt better.
The woman is a family, and there is no man in charge of the house in the house, and he is not reliable in speaking and doing things, so he should be more generous.
"That's good, that's good."
As soon as the words fell, Li Zheng felt that what he said was inappropriate, and hurriedly made up for it: "If something really happens in the future, you can send someone to me, and I, as Li Zheng, will definitely uphold justice." ”
"Thank you Grandpa Lizheng, I'm relieved to have your words, it just so happens that I really have something to ask you for."
As soon as Li Zheng stabilized his mind, he would be hung up again.
"What, what's the matter?"
Hongdou smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal for you." ”
"I wanted to ask, where else can we buy pork besides the two pork shops in town?"
It turned out that this was the case, and it was really not a difficult thing for him.
Li Zheng thought for a while and said: "There are several families in the nearby village who raise pigs, but the pigs raised are all sold whole. ”
"And generally sign a deed with the buyer in advance, if you buy less, people are afraid that they are not willing to sell."
It's good to know this news, and the rest will wait for her to take a closer look.
"Thank you, Grandpa Lizheng, dare to ask which two villages are the nearest ones?"
Li Zheng: "Lijia Village and Peach Blossom Village. ”
"I see, thank you for delaying you for so long." Red Bean said politely.
Originally, it was said that he would go to Lizheng's house after collecting the stall, which saved effort.
Mrs. Xie also said: "Yes, my wife and I are in a hurry, don't take it to heart." ”
"I'll pay this month's money, and by the way, I'll book the next month together."
Xie Pozi came to the stall, took out the box containing the money, and took out the money to be paid this month, as well as the deposit for the next month.
"Li Zheng, next month, my family will set it first, is it feasible to pay a deposit of ten yuan?"
She was really reluctant to do more, so she handed over more than 100 wen at once, saving enough for her family to eat for a few days.
Rimasa has no opinion.
After collecting the money and giving a unified voucher ticket, he was done and left.
There was no one in the stall, and Zhang took Xiaoya to sit down, and the family totaled.
"Grandma, mother, starting tomorrow, let's prepare less things."
"I'm afraid that this matter will have some impact today, so let's take a break."
A few people had no opinion, as usual, this thing should have been sold out, but there were still some left today;
Although there is not much left, there is still a gap compared to before.
"I'm going to think about the sales of the jelly."
"Although lo-mei is good, the cost is high, even if it is used in pig water, the spice money is a lot.
"So I'm still going to focus on cold powder."
