Siheyuan: Five mouths waiting for food at the beginning

Actually, Shazhu did nothing wrong, but there were many children taking the college entrance examination today, so the shout was somewhat abrupt.

"Shanhe, are you serious about taking a step back?" Shazhu asked.

"No, I'm going to go to Shanhai to see how they are doing."

"Shanhe, I was just about to ask you, you are offering free eggs and bonuses, aren't you afraid of losing money?" Xu Damao asked

"Are you afraid of losing money? Damao, you must first understand what business is. You can only gain if you give. There are so many students taking the college entrance examination today. How much are some eggs worth? Isn't this just making the restaurant famous through the college entrance examination?

This is called advertising, spreading the word. It costs so little to advertise, do you think I am losing money? But I will get more customers, do you think I will still lose money? "

"Shanhe, now I understand what you said. An egg costs only a few cents, and thousands of eggs only cost a few hundred yuan, but these students and parents remember our restaurant. Even if only a few dozen of them go there regularly, we can make the money back. Plus, they spread the word, so we make money. I really don't know what's wrong with your brain."

"You said it's too little. I don't just deliver eggs here, I deliver them to every test site. If you go there today, more people will know about our restaurant."

Xu Damao and Sha Zhu followed Zhao Shanhe to the place where the eggs were delivered. Zhao Shanhu and Zhao Shanhai were also helping. They chose a place under a big tree with a red banner hanging on the tree that read "Si Hai Restaurant supports the college entrance examination and provides free eggs and mung bean soup to candidates."

Of course, there was more than one banner, and there was another one that read, "Si Hai Hotel rewards outstanding students with RMB 30,000 for the first place, RMB 20,000 for the second place, and RMB 10,000 for the third place."

"Si Hai Hotel provides free admission banquet for the top ten students"

When Zhao Shanhe arrived, he found that many students and parents were asking about the reward. Eggs are worth only a few dollars, and it doesn't matter whether you eat them or not, but if what is said on the banner is true, then you will immediately become a millionaire.

"Really, the future of the country depends on these young people. Although our Sihai Hotel cannot make any great contribution, we hope that there will be outstanding young people who can solve the worries of these outstanding talents, study hard, and repay the society with their own efforts."

Opposite the Sihai Hotel is the low-end Baixing Hotel, which does not have so many banners on it, except for the one that offers free eggs and mung bean soup.

There were a lot of people gathered under the two trees, collecting eggs. After all, eggs are a good thing nowadays. When there is not much meat, being able to eat eggs is a happy thing. Not every household can afford eggs.

Huameng Clothing also participated. It was across the street. The banner was basically the same as that of Sihai Hotel, except for the name. They still gave out eggs and tens of thousands of rewards. They didn't give out graduation banquets, but they did give out clothes.

Zhao Shanhe just stood nearby and watched, but did not go forward to help. His identity was not suitable for doing such things.

Zhao Shanhe was puzzled as to why no reporters came. Shouldn't reporters come to visit for such a big event as the college entrance examination? Zhao Shanhe originally thought about buying a few pages to report the matter in the newspaper, but it would be difficult to appear impressive if he took the initiative to say it himself rather than using someone else's mouth.

In fact, Zhao Shanhe was overthinking it. They came too early, and the reporters had not yet come to work. The reporters nowadays were not the paparazzi of later generations. They were uncrowned kings with a regular job.

As time went by, more and more candidates and parents arrived.

"Oh, what a loss! If I had known there were free eggs, what would I eat at home? Eggs are not as nutritious as them."

"Yeah, why didn't you tell me about this Sihai Restaurant earlier? We've already had dinner."

"Did you see that? The Sihai Hotel paid the top three people. They can become millionaires in no time. That's a millionaire."

"Not only that, not only Sihai Hotel has rewards, you see the Huameng Clothing store across the street, they also give rewards, tens of thousands, and they also give away clothes."

"The Sihai Hotel and Huameng Clothing must have been kicked in the head by a donkey. They took so much money, they must be so anxious to spend it all."

"What do you know? Did you see that tall guy in there? I heard from others that he is the person in charge of Sihai Hotel. He said that this is to give back to society. The future of the country still depends on young people. This is to solve the worries of these outstanding talents and make better contributions to the country."

"Guoqing, it's up to you. I think you have a chance to win the first place in liberal arts. One family will get 30,000 yuan, and two families will get 60,000 yuan. There will also be free clothes and a graduation banquet. I heard that Sihai Restaurant is a place for rich people. It will be so prestigious for relatives and friends at home to eat there. I should have studied hard earlier if I had known this."

"Yes, National Day, you always rank first in every exam, so you will definitely be the top scorer in liberal arts, but remember to treat me when you go to Sihai Hotel. I also want to go to Sihai Hotel to see it for myself."

The student named Guoqing said, "I am only the top student in our school. There are many students in this city, and it may not be me."

These students were discussing this near Zhao Shanhe and his friends. If Zhao Shanhe hadn't seen this student named Guoqing, he would have thought he was talking about his son An Tong. An Tong's nickname is Guoqing.

Zhao Shanhe felt that this Guoqing sounded familiar. In later generations, there was a founder of Dangdang.com named Li Guoqing. Judging from his age, he should be about the same age as his son now. Could this Guoqing be Li Guoqing?

Zhao Shanhe didn't go up to ask, because the school bell had already rung, indicating that the candidates could enter the examination room.

Zhao Shanhe made a gesture of encouragement to his son and nephew, but didn't say anything, as he didn't want to put pressure on his son.

As the candidates entered the venue one after another, the parents also went back one after another, and only a few parents were left at the door.

The waiters at the Sihai Restaurant who were distributing eggs also started to pack up and go back, as they still had to distribute mung bean soup at noon.

Zhao Shanhe and his family were also preparing to go to the nearby Sihai Hotel to rest, and they would come back later. Their clothes were already a bit conspicuous, and they would look like fools if they didn't leave now.

A waiter came over to look for Zhao Shanhai, and some came to look for Zhang Baixue. It turned out that they were reporters who wanted to interview them. The reporters had actually arrived earlier. For such a big occasion, someone must have informed them long ago, but Zhao Shanhai was busy just now, so they didn't come forward to disturb him.

"You two go do the interview. Oh, Shan Hu should go too. You are the person in charge, so it is not appropriate for me to show up. I will go to the hotel with the kids and wait for you."

Zhao Shanhe, Aunt Chen and Qin Jingru were preparing to return to Sihai Hotel with their younger brothers and sisters who had come to cheer for their eldest and second brothers, but were grabbed by Sha Zhu's arm.

"Well, Shanhe, can I go and take a look? Don't worry, I won't say anything. I'll just stand next to Shanhai. Maybe I'll be featured in the newspaper. Being featured in the newspaper will bring honor to our family."

"You can go if you want. You are the head chef of Sihai Hotel."

Zhao Shanhe looked at Xu Damao who was eager to make a move and said, "Damo, if you want to go, go ahead. After all, you are the deputy general manager of Huameng Clothing."
