Entrepreneurship in a different world

Chapter 78 Entering the city twice: Xiaohuo's lipstick paper

This time they set off before the first wave of the earliest laborers started.

Leaving the entrance and exit of the 'Ghost Cave', the sky outside is dark blue.Wen Rong reckoned that this time would be between 04:30 and [-]:[-].

After five o'clock is the time when the tide of going to work officially begins.If the work place is far away, it will start at 06 o'clock, and if it is closer, it will be half an hour later. It is normal to start at 30 o'clock if it is closer, but before 07:30, no matter whether it is going out to work or pulling weeds, it will basically leave At seven o'clock, there are very few people on the streets of the "Ghost Cave". After [-]:[-], the elderly and children are basically active.

Although the road ahead is long, with stars and moons overhead, the four of them have different moods when they go to 'Nishia City' for the second time.

Rejecting He Miao's two brothers' proposal to drag him forward, Wen Rong was still persuading them, "Don't worry, we're going to spend the night no matter what. Just walk slowly."

He wanted to try to see how long it would take to get there if he didn't rely on running or brisk walking, but relied on the normal foot speed of his body.

After walking for half an hour, Wen Rong accepted the reality after being overtaken by workers who came to work in waves after them.

Well, if he followed his normal foot speed, it would probably take more than ten hours to reach the gate of the city.

He had no choice but to speed up the pace with the brothers.What made him curious was that Dabao didn't want him to recite anything this time, but had to go by himself.The little doll walked as fast as him at the beginning, but when he accelerated, he was still walking at the same speed as him, and, like the He Miao brothers, he didn't sweat.

Gradually, more and more workers caught up with them.Some people who knew Ah He even greeted him.

People here usually stay at home except for work, or walk on the way home from work.Unless you know someone you can talk to, otherwise everyone basically keeps their heads on the road and doesn't talk.

Those who can take the initiative to greet others on the road are familiar people.

"Where are you going?" Ah He was asked by a middle-aged man in his 40s, tall and thin, with gray-blue eyes, long hands and long legs, and good facial features, but he was tanned , rough skin.

"We're going to 'Nishia City'." Seeing that Ah He didn't know how to answer, Wen Rong took the conversation by himself.

"What are you doing there?" The other party didn't want to spy on them, but was just curious.They can't find a job there, and it's a long way to go back and forth, so it's useless to go there.

"I have someone I know there." Wen Rong said with a smile.

Only then did the other party turn around and look at Wen Rong a few times. He was sure it was a stranger, and when he saw the clothes the other party was wearing, he suddenly said, "Oh!"

Then he pulled Ah He aside alone, wanting to have a few words with him.

Wen Rong didn't care about it, he took the two children and continued on their way.

A few minutes later, Ah He caught up with them from behind, with some blush remaining on his face after anger.

"What's wrong?" Wen Rong asked.

"Uncle Xiao misunderstood you. I argued with him a few words." Ah He said with a gloomy face and displeasure.

"What's the misunderstanding?" Wen Rong was curious.

"He said, said that you are, from Aunt Xia Lan's place... Tell me not to hang out with you, I will be spoiled by..."

Wen Rong laughed, "He's concerned about you, Ah He. He probably thinks so when he sees me wearing Ms. Xia Lan's clothes and hears that I know people in the city. He's right, if I don't really care about you, so I won't remind you of this."

"I...I know."

"Go and apologize to them. As for me, everyone will know who I am in the future, so don't worry about arguing with them."

Ah He ran back to apologize to that Uncle Xiao, and after a short while the uncle passed them again, this time he nodded slightly to Wen Rong, increased his foot speed, and quickly left them a short distance away distance.

Every time you reach a manor on the road, you will lose a group of fellow travelers. After passing the 'Li's Manor' and 'Jin's Manor', there are only more than 100 people who are still on the road—they will continue to walk until they leave. to where they work.

Gradually, there were only Wen Rong and the four of them left on this long white-yellow road.

Until about two o'clock in the afternoon, they came to the fork between 'Sweet Water Village' and the main road. This is a temporary stop for Uncle Monroe to wait for customers in his spare time.

The dilapidated van didn't stop here today, but Wen Rong didn't plan to take the car either.

I really have no money in hand, and I have to save it to pay the entrance fee.Once the entrance fee was paid, he only had ten marrow coins on hand, so he had to be nervous.

I set off early today, and trotted for a while, and it was only three o'clock when I arrived at the gate of Dongcheng.

At three o'clock, vendors from outside the city came one after another.Wen Rong saw Liu Waizui and Wang Sanxiang.A few of them and a few other men got together to play cards while there was no business at the moment.

It's still a game of gambling.Wen Rong glanced not far away, but did not see Wang Sanxiang's wife.He shook his head in his heart, he couldn't take care of other people's family affairs, and hoped that everything would be fine for the other party.

Then he started looking for the young man who helped him out that day-the one who sold thatch roots.did not find.

Wen Rong led the children towards the gate of the city.

Wen Rong prepared four marrow coins in advance, and lined up behind other people waiting to enter the city. After a few people, it was their turn.

It was the old Hu who paid the fee.

Wen Rong handed over the coins and asked with a smile, "Hello, is Captain Luo there?"

Lao Hu raised his eyelids and looked at him, "You guys are here again."

He actually remembered himself, which surprised Wen Rong, "Do you remember me?"

"I basically remember the people who come in and out here every day." Lao Hu replied casually.If you don't have a photographic memory, how can you charge here?

"Your memory is really good." Wen Rong praised.

I'm used to being praised by others, and Lao Hu doesn't take it seriously, "Are you looking for Captain Luo? What's the matter?"

"It's a little thing." Wen Rong grinned foolishly.

Lao Hu took out a communicator from under the toll table and pressed one of the buttons.

Having seen TV, cars, and hot weapons, a communicator did not surprise Wen Rong. He took his pass and took the children aside to make way for others.

"Do you still have the lip paper you gave the captain?" Lao Hu was able to rest for a while after collecting the fee for the next person, and took advantage of this gap to go back and communicate with Wen Rong.

Wen Rong nodded.

Seeing the other party staring straight at him, he reacted now, took out a thin small bag from the purse on his chest and handed it to the other party.

He purposely split the scattered lip paper into two small packages as a 'gift' for favors.

Seeing that he was so obedient, Old Hu took it with a satisfied smile, "Do you have both colors?"

He also knows that his lip paper is divided into two colors.

Wen Rong nodded again.

Lao Hu was even more satisfied, "The lip paper about you has caused a little sensation in the city these two days." Wen Rong was sensible, and Lao Hu was happy to chat with him, so he took a special look at Ming Yu, "Those who buy The woman with your lip paper painted red lips, I don’t know how many men and women’s eyes have been attracted. I haven’t seen you come out to set up a stall, and some people beg to buy from the person who bought a lot that day. At first, five or six coins …How much do you think the highest one sold for?”

Wen Rong pretended not to understand the temptation in his eyes, and shook her head.

"Twelve marrow coins." Old Hu clasped his hands together, "Twelve! I heard that you sold three marrow coins per piece?"

Wen Rong was slightly startled, he had found out everything he could find out.

"Hehe..." Wen Rong just laughed and didn't answer.

"Those who do business in 'You Lan Fang' are robbing like crazy." Old Hu saw that his mouth was strict, so he didn't say much.

Just at this time, Captain Luo brought people over.

Seeing Wen Rong and his party, Captain Luo's eyes lit up, and he walked over quickly, "You're here."

"Hello, Captain Luo." Wen Rong took the lead in calling, and the other three children followed suit.

In particular, Dabao's voice is still milky, which makes people feel soft-hearted. Captain Luo touched the heads of Dabao and A Miao, "Good boy!"

Seeing him coming, Old Hu stuffed the things he had just acquired into his pockets.Captain Luo saw it but pretended not to see it, and took Wen Rong and the others to the side.

"He asked you for something?"

How could Wen Rong be so ignorant, he quickly waved his hands, "No, I offered it."

"Hey!" Captain Luo didn't understand the virtues of his subordinates.He got those two pieces of lip paper that day, and didn't take it seriously at first, so he gave it to his wife after returning home.

His wife was so happy that she 'rewarded' him that night.It made Captain Luo completely confused.

The two pieces of thin paper are not as big as a palm, so it is worth being so happy?

In the next two days, because the shocks brought to him by these two thin papers became stronger each time.

He always thought that life was not easy for people inside and outside the city, and not many people would buy such inedible things.Unexpectedly, this thing quietly became popular among them.

The women who went to work wiped their mouths, and they were definitely the most eye-catching one among the crowd.A little bit of beauty adds a bit of brilliance.Captain Luo still remembered that the day before yesterday and yesterday, for two consecutive days, women gathered to the gate of the east city when they were off work, in order to wait for Wen Rong to come to sell lip paper.

Ask why not buy from others.

One is that you can't buy it, and the other is that it is expensive.

Wen Rong sold one sheet of three coins, and twenty sheets of 45 coins. The city has increased from five coins to ten coins, and the supply is still in short supply.

Captain Luo also realized at this time that there are quite a few people here who are willing to spend money for beauty.

"A technician surnamed Yao has come to ask me every time these two days. If I see you, remember to tell you. Don't forget that he said to leave two bags for him."

Wen Rong still remembered that technician, and what he said at that time also helped him win the initial business.

"You tell him that I will be staying at the 'Oven Hotel' opposite 'Central Station' today, but the price of a pack of my lip paper has gone up, but I can still give him the wholesale price, only two packs. "Wen Rong made it clear what should be said, so that the choice is in the hands of the other party.

He purposely kept four more packs, among which were prepared for the technician who was the first to place an order with him.

"Wholesale price?" Captain Luo's eyes turned slightly, "Have you found someone who wholesales your goods? Is it reliable, don't let people be fooled."

Is Qiulan reliable?

Wen Rong thought about it, so far he feels that it is reliable.
