Yu Zhou changed into his work clothes and met Xie Yuan at the bar. Xie Yuan looked at Yu Zhou and said, "Yu Zhou looks much better today. You were so scary drinking that day, just like you were fighting."

What Xie Yuan didn't say was that Yu Zhou seemed desperate to fight.

Yu Zhou took a look at Xie Yuan, and he found that Xie Yuan was calling him Yu Zhou more and more smoothly. Xie Yuan's upper body was pressed against the bar, and he said to Brother Xiaodong, "Add a fruit platter."

Brother Xiaodong responded, and after a while passed the platter over, Xie Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "It's too cold."

Yu Zhou glanced suspiciously, he knew about the fruit platter, but now there is a layer of crushed ice under the fruit platter, and there are fruits on top, and there is a threatening chill.

Brother Xiaodong smiled and said, "A new summer product. Although it's the first day it's on the market, it must be selling well."

Yu Zhou thought about it for a while and then went to work. Sure enough, as Brother Xiaodong said, a lot of the new assortment platters were sold that night.When closing time was about to close, Xie Yuan leaned over to Yu Zhou, handed Yu Zhou two lychees and said, "Brother Xiaodong gave it, it's delicious. Brother Yu, try it."

Yu Zhou tasted one, it was very cold and sweet.

Before, he vaguely had an idea to make some money in summer, but now the fruit platter in the bar made him finally think of a way to make money, he might as well sell iced fruit on Nanning Road.

On Wednesday afternoon, Yu Zhou escaped from physical education class, first went to the market to buy [-] catties of lychees, then went to the cold drink factory to buy two bags of ice cubes, and then rode his bicycle to Zhanji.

Yu Zhou shared his thoughts with Zhan Xi, and then asked, "Uncle Zhan, do you have any wooden boxes or something?"

Zhan Xi searched for a while in the warehouse and found a medium-sized box.The two bags of ice cubes were temporarily placed in Zhan Ji's freezer. Zhan Xi brought some packing boxes to Yu Zhou, and Yu Zhou packed the lychees into forty boxes.

He also rearranged the box, covered it with a layer of foam board, laid ice cubes on the bottom of the box, and stacked the boxes on top of the ice cubes.When the sun went down, Yu Zhou moved a bench and sold them at the gate of Zhan Ji for five yuan a box.

The forty boxes sold out quickly.

After calculating it, Yu Zhou found that after deducting the cost, he made a net profit of 60 yuan.Afterwards, Yu Zhou sold at the gate of Zhanji for about a week. The business was really good at the beginning, but this trick was also learned by others.Their working hours are longer and they have more stocks, while Yu Zhou is only a small-cost business, and gradually fewer and fewer people come to buy fruits.

Zhan Xi shook his cattail fan and said, "Why don't you do it with me, and we can sell the fruits together when delivering meals."

Yu Zhou didn't really want to do this. He had already taken advantage of Uncle Zhan. Zhan Xi sighed and said, "I figured out the money for the lunch box with me. Why do you want to give me the electricity bill for the ice cubes?"

Yu Zhou looked at the battle seats and said, "Send it with the meal, but the fruit can't be served."

In the next two days, Yu Zhou automatically reduced the amount of fruit every day, and it seemed that he had no motivation to run to the market every day.In the middle of the month, Yu Zhou was automatically given an hour's vacation by the battle seat, and Yu Zhou went to the bank to send the money to Xu Si.Because of two jobs this month, after transferring the money to Xu Si, he still has the wages of the bar and the 800 yuan he earned from selling fruit.

Yu Zhou pursed his lower lip and took out the bank card.

At seven o'clock, he set up a fruit stand at the gate of Zhan Ji as usual, and he reduced the forty boxes from the beginning to thirty boxes.By [-]:[-], there were still two boxes left unsold.Yu Zhou closed his eyes slightly, he was blown drowsy by the warm wind at night.Until someone yelled, "Boss, how do you sell this box?"

Yu Zhou opened his eyes and saw Hou Xiaoyan standing in front of him, looking at his face, seeing him open his eyes, Hou Xiaoyan laughed.Yu Zhou propped himself up, stood up, and asked, "Why are you here?"

It really shouldn't be said, it sounds very familiar.However, their relationship is clearly strangers who don't even know each other's mobile phone numbers.

But Hou Xiaoyan said, "See if you have any poisoning reaction."

As he spoke, he stacked two boxes of lychees together and handed Yu Zhou ten yuan.Yu Zhou took it and gave Hou Xiaoyan another five yuan. Hou Xiaoyan smiled, "[-]% off for acquaintances?"

Yu Zhou said, "Only sell one box."

Hou Xiaoyan snorted, Yu Zhou took both boxes from his hand, Hou Xiaoyan didn't care, and said, "What time do you get off work?"

Yu Zhou asked, "Are you going to the bar?"

Hou Xiaoyan nodded, Yu Zhou greeted the battle seat, and then pushed the bicycle and walked to the bar with Hou Xiaoyan.Hou Xiaoyan turned his head to Yu Zhou and said, "Boss Yu, business is not good recently?"

This is obviously a question knowingly, but Yu Zhou replied indifferently, without any other thoughts.

Hou Xiaoyan heard from his roommate that someone was selling iced lychees at the gate of Zhanji. It is said that the business was good, but the quantity was too small, and they were soon squeezed out by the neighbors.Hou Xiaoyan thought it might be Yu Zhou at the time, so he paid more attention on the way to the bar today, and as expected, it was Yu Zhou himself.

Yu Zhou sells a small amount of fruit, so it is estimated that this fruit business has nothing to do with Zhan Ji, and it is Yu Zhou's own idea.Hou Xiaoyan turned his head slightly, Yu Zhou's hands holding the handlebars were slightly dry and cracked, and the grayness on his face had faded long ago, but Hou Xiaoyan remembered that night when he sent Yu Zhou to the hospital, Yu Zhou vomited until his face turned pale appearance.

Yu Zhou put two boxes of fruit on the car seat, Hou Xiaoyan raised the corner of his mouth, and said suddenly, "I'll find you at Zhanji tomorrow."

Yu Zhou glanced at Hou Xiaoyan, Hou Xiaoyan's eyes were slightly upturned, showing his usual gentle demeanor.Yu Zhou didn't say anything about refusing, nor did he express his agreement. Hou Xiaoyan made up his mind and didn't think about what to do if Yu Zhou refused.Hou Xiaoyan took Yu Zhou's vague attitude as his acquiescence.

Early the next morning, Yu Zhou ran into Hou Xiaoyan at the gate of Zhan Ji.Hou Xiaoyan raised his hand and said good morning.Yu Zhou was stunned for a moment, and immediately returned to normal. He locked the car, walked to the War Records, and said as he walked, "Why so early?"

Hou Xiaoyan followed others into Zhan Ji. He looked around and said, "If you come here at noon, you should be very busy."

Yu Zhou asked Zhan Xi about the morning, went to the kitchen to get a rag, Zhan Xi shook his fan, and squinted his eyes to look at Hou Xiaoyan. For three years, I have never seen him interact with anyone else, Zhan Xi couldn't help asking curiously: "Are you Yu Zhou's classmate?"

Hou Xiaoyan said, "No, we met by chance."

Zhan Xi asked Hou Xiaoyan about his school and major, Yu Zhou twisted a rag and began to wipe the table, Hou Xiaoyan looked at his back, Yu Zhou listened to the conversation between the two After that, the speed of wiping the table was a little faster.After Yu Zhou finished wiping the table, Hou Xiaoyan hadn't left yet. He moved a bench and sat at the door. Yu Zhou walked over and asked, "What do you want from me today?"

Hou Xiaoyan didn't answer, but instead asked, "Are you done?"

Yu Zhou nodded, Hou Xiaoyan stood up and said to Yu Zhou, "Let's go buy some fruit."
