Stall setting starts from Malatang

Chapter 18, Chapter 18

"Lin Sisi...has nothing to do with me."

Lin Xiaojian pressed the keypad of his mobile phone in a calm mood, and returned a message to Liu Ting.

"Oh, it doesn't matter, but after all, it's everyone's former goddess, isn't it?"

"It's rare that the three of us are all in Fengzhou. What a fate, why don't we get together?"

"Our school either went to the provincial capital, or went to the first- and second-tier cities, and few of them got into the third-tier cities. I heard that you are because your cousin is working here?"

"DiDi, DiDi..."

Liu Ting's QQ news is like a machine gun, and Didi is sending it non-stop. It seems that he really wants to get together with Lin Xiaojian.

"When are you going to climb the mountain?"

What Liu Ting said touched Lin Xiaojian's heart.Thousands of miles away from home to work, I always feel a little lonely and lonely in my heart, longing for friendship, socializing, and excitement.Although Brother Chao is close to him, he is half an elder after all, and he feels different from a friend.

The point is that he has some money on hand now, and he is not afraid to go out and spend money.In a week, with two digits in the bank card, it would not be enough to go out to AA for a meal, and it would certainly not be able to arouse the interest of the party.

"8 a.m. the day after tomorrow! Meet at the bus station in Beishan Town, Fengzhou County!"

"We set off at seven o'clock, and it takes about an hour from Fengzhou College to Beishan."

"Which factory do you work in? My aunt's whole family works in Nancheng, so I will have more time to get together in the future."

Seeing that Lin Xiaojing was a little moved, Liu Ting became even more excited and kept sending messages.

"Okay, okay, I see, I'll go to bed first, you should go to bed early too."

Seeing that the time was past midnight, Liu Ting was still nagging, and the corners of Lin Xiaojian's mouth rose slightly. This guy was no different from when he was studying.

At that time, my grades were better than his. When I asked questions, Liu Ting was always like a chatterbox. He could talk about astronomy, geography, political economy, beauties and handsome men.

"No way, it's only 12 o'clock! Are you going to work tomorrow? We all don't sleep until 2 o'clock."

"Actually, college is not very interesting. I just eat and sleep every day, which is a waste of my parents' money."

Liu Ting, who was spending the night at an Internet cafe, was typing fast on the keyboard. Half a year after he was admitted to university, this young man from a remote county had completely lost his youthfulness, and lived a bat-like day and night routine like his classmates in developed areas, squandering his parents' living expenses.As soon as he sent the first message, he regretted it. In high school, Lin Xiaojian's grades were much better than his. If he didn't drop out of school, he might be able to get a copy. He quickly sent a remedial message, degrading college life to nothing. .

What Liu Ting said was from his heart. He knew that this kind of life was unhealthy and college students should not be so decadent, but he still couldn't change his laziness.

After sending the message, seeing that Lin Xiaojian did not reply for a long time (half a minute), he accepted the invitation from his classmates, entered the qualifying round, and forgot about the matter.

"Climbing Beishan? Liu Ting? Lin Sisi?"

After sending the good night message, Lin Xiaojian turned his mobile phone to silent and stuffed it back under the pillow, unable to calm down in his mind for a long time.

He thought all this was over, and he was used to the present life, but when he saw Liu Ting's head portrait, casually narrating his university life, Lin Xiaojian still felt turbulent waves in his heart, and his heart was beating non-stop.

If it wasn't for that accident, I should be like Liu Ting now, playing League of Legends all night at an Internet cafe near the school, right?
I heard that this game is very popular on college campuses. Boys who don’t know how to play (the Chinese homophony of the English name LOL of League of Legends) will be despised, and even quite a few girls like this game with cute characters. .

"Hey, why are you thinking about this? Let the past be bygones. Now that I have a system, I will definitely do better than these people in the future."

Lin Xiaojian tossed and turned, with the figures of his classmates popping up in his head from time to time, and occasionally Xiaoshuang's face would flash by.

According to the fourth uncle, she is also from the No. [-] Middle School of the county, and they are actually classmates.However, he dropped out of high school in his second year of high school. In addition, everyone was very traditional, introverted and shy at that time, and he didn't have much interaction with people in other classes. The students in the same village didn't even know each other.

In the dream, Lin Xiaojian dreamed of his life trajectory without encountering any accidents - he completed three years of high school step by step, failed to perform well in the college entrance examination, and only got on the second line. At the invitation of Brother Chao, driven by his vague love for Lin Sisi At the instigation of Liu Ting, he chose the ordinary Fengzhou College on the coast of the East China Sea.

Compared with high school life, the rhythm of college life is completely different. Adhering to the concept of "long live 60 points", he also quickly integrated into the lazy and indulgent life. The only difference from his classmates is that he applied for a Sunday Work-study work subsidizes living.

Lin Sisi, who has the unique aura of Southwestern girls, has become one of the most eye-catching girls in college. Lin Xiaojian, who needs a work-study program, feels that the gap between himself and her is getting bigger and bigger. Did not dare to speak out, let it bear fruit.After graduating, she was admitted to a local civil servant and married a rich second-generation factory worker; while he found a large factory to apply for an engineer, starting as a reserve cadre, and after going around, he became a workshop worker.

He had several dreams intermittently, until dawn, when he woke up in a daze, thinking that he had to do a big job today, so he hurriedly got up.

"Boom! Boom!"

The electric car drove to [-]% horsepower, and sped to the seafood area of ​​the vegetable market. For some reason, there were not many people buying vegetables today. Lin Xiaojian found a shell seller, asked the price, and was shocked! .

"Isn't this clam usually priced at 6 yuan per catty? Why is it 1 yuan today!?"

"Isn't this razor clam usually cost 15 yuan per catty? Why is it 1 yuan today!?"

If you don’t ask, you won’t know that today’s price is half as much as usual. For small vendors like them, this is a devastating blow.

"There was a situation in the fishing ground a few days ago. It is expensive these days, but it will be cheaper tomorrow."

The owner of the shell shop said lightly, he has long been accustomed to this kind of customers who don't understand the market.

The price of dishes is not static, and will be affected by factors such as weather, policies, and logistics. The most serious impact is typhoon. A severe typhoon can cause short-term vegetable prices to soar by more than 100%.During the fishing ban in summer, the price of seafood will also soar. These two situations are the most common.

The name of Fengzhou, as the name suggests, means that there are a lot of typhoons.

"Okay, then I'll buy it tomorrow."

Lin Xiaojian rarely buys seafood, and he is not quite used to the situation where the price difference is as high as half.In his mind, since today's seafood is expensive, I won't sell it today, and I'll buy it when it's down tomorrow.

I followed the rules and bought a bunch of vegetables and frozen products. The quantity was too large to fit in the battery car. The owner of the frozen product shop, Lu, saw that Lin Xiaojian's business was getting better and better, and he was all smiles when he saw him.He used to purchase once every two or three days, but now he comes to purchase every day. There are not many such customers in the small town, and only a few have such business.

After buying the vegetables, the next step is nothing more than side dishes, lunch break, going out to the stall, closing the stall, and life day after day.Setting up a stall is essentially no different from going to work. They are all completing work tasks step by step. One is responsible for the boss and the other is responsible for oneself.Be responsible to your boss and someone will take care of you, but you will be exploiting the residual value, with a high lower limit and a lower upper limit; if you set up a stall on your own, you will be responsible for your profits and losses. You may get rich suddenly, or you may lose all your underwear.

In the afternoon, taking advantage of his free time, Lin Xiaojian went to the town to buy a new pair of sneakers, thinking that he would go hiking tomorrow and wear sneakers to make his feet more comfortable, which shows that he attaches great importance to this party.

Time soon came to Thursday morning, Lin Xiaojian got up early, bought all the dishes to be prepared today, and the seafood prices returned to normal as the owner of the shell shop said.He bought two catties of clams, one catty of razor clams, one pack of frozen shrimp, and one pack of pangasius fillets, all of which happened to be stuffed into the super crisper.

"There are more than 100 clams in two catties. I'll divide them into 11 parts. One share is 1, and the price is 10 yuan per share, which is equivalent to 3 yuan and 1 yuan, which is nearly 12% of the profit."

"Isn't it a bit expensive? It shouldn't be expensive, right? The 15-year-old vermicelli shop in the town costs [-] yuan a piece, and there are only a few flower clams. It's just the taste of the seasoning packet in the soup base."

"If clams are considered cheap seafood, razor clams can barely be served on the table, right? Even in big hotels, there will be a dish of razor clams, and clams can't be served at banquets."

"How should the price be set...?"

Lin Xiaojian did not expect that the troublesome purchase and storage would be easily solved, but this seemingly simplest pricing stumped him.

If the price is high, customers will definitely complain in this small market in an industrial area; if the price is low, after all, seafood is a high-consumption dish, and if you don’t make the money you should make, your peers will complain about you for disrupting the market order—it’s not who There are super crisper boxes.

Previously, his pricing of vegetables and frozen products was completely copied from the hot hot spicy hot pot in the town, and the types were similar. Starting today, he finally walked out of his own way.

"Forget it, put the price aside in advance, we have to set off and gather, and think about it slowly when climbing the mountain."

Put all the seafood in the super crisper, and then put the super crisper in the freezer, so as to avoid suspicion.After he finished packing, he put on a new reflective printed long-sleeved cotton T-shirt, stepped on Anta 200 blue and gray low-top basketball shoes that cost more than 19 yuan, and looked in the mirror, feeling very energetic.

"Huh? Xiaojian, what are you...doing today?"

Ye Chao, who was also getting dressed to go to work, was stunned for a moment. Since Lin Xiaojian lived here, he has dressed up only a handful of times. The only time this year was when he was tricked by his fourth uncle to go on a blind date a few days ago.He habitually wanted to make a joke, thinking that his cousin had just been despised by the mother-in-law, so he quickly took back the words, for fear of making him sad.

"My former classmates called me for a party!"

Lin Xiaojian said casually.

"Former classmates? They also go to school here?"

"Are there any female classmates?"

Ye Chao wondered, Fengzhou was thousands of miles away from their hometown, how could they travel so far to go to school?
