Back to 80s bride

Chapter 20 Speculation?

Now that he was suffering from cold and headache, and it was time for lunch again, Chen Minghui didn't rush to Haishi, but went to a state-owned restaurant.

"What do you want to eat?" The waiter raised his eyes and asked Chen Minghui angrily as he looked in.

Chen Minghui said: "Just give me a vegetarian stir-fry. The staple food requires four steamed buns. Pour me a cup of hot water by the way, thank you."

The waiter was not very big, and he rolled his eyes and reluctantly entered the back kitchen.

For the attitude of the waiter, Chen Minghui is not surprised, this is another characteristic of the times.The waiters in this period are not the waiters later, and the customer is God.During this period, those who could be waiters were from relatively good family conditions.It's an enviable job in itself.

Chen Minghui looked up and could even see the slogan hanging on the wall, red letters on a yellow background, prohibiting beating and scolding customers.If it weren't for the uncomfortable feeling all over, Chen Minghui would almost burst out laughing.

At this time, Chen Minghui was the only one in the store, and the food was served quickly. Chen Minghui glanced at it, but there was no hot water, so he asked again, "Pour me a cup of hot water."

The waiter said unhappily: "What's the reminder, the reminder, the hot water doesn't need to be boiled?"

Chen Minghui said in a good voice: "I'm impatient. I walked all morning, and I'm freezing, and I feel a little fever. I'm in a hurry to drink some hot water to warm my body, and take some medicine."

Chen Minghui was born with handsome features and deep outline, he was a very handsome young man, but he was covered up by his worn clothes and his past rudeness, so he could be regarded as a pearl dusted in dust.At this moment, the little waiter was really fascinated by showing his own charm intentionally or unintentionally, and his cheeks were slightly red.

The little girl shyly ran into the back kitchen, and after a while took out a thermos bottle and an enamel jar with a five-pointed star and the characters of the People's Liberation Army printed on it.

"Here, you can drink as much as you want."

"Thank you." Chen Minghui said it from the bottom of his heart this time.

He hadn't stayed in a hot place these days, and now he was shivering from the cold.This means that he has a good physique, and he has been so spoiled all these years. If he is replaced by someone who is usually pampered, even someone like Qian Yu is afraid that he will not be able to stand it, and he will definitely not be able to afford illness.

The water should have just boiled, and it was still boiling hot. Chen Minghui was really too cold, so he just touched the enamel jar to warm the temperature of his hands.When the water temperature cooled slightly, he drank it all in one gulp.After drinking two big jars in a row, I didn't feel so cold anymore.

Chen Minghui ate a plate of vegetarian fried four steamed buns for nearly an hour. It wasn't that he ate slowly, he did it on purpose.Now, except for the warm air in the restaurant, it is cold outside, and he has no place to go anywhere else, so he has a short rest here, and he is about to get busy again.

Taking advantage of this time, he counted his money again.There was no one else in the restaurant except the chef and the waiter chatting, and he was not afraid of being targeted.

950 six yuan and seven cents. .

Excluding the cost of 350 yuan, he earned [-] yuan this trip, which was worth more than half a year's wages for workers.He is going to toss the toys two more times. If the cost is more, he can consider doing something else.Everything went well, I could earn about [-] yuan in two months, and half of my own expenses came out.After the high school entrance examination is over, and then come out to toss for more than two months, the self-financing and favor expenses will be completely covered.

However, in this case, it would be more than a month late to go back according to the scheduled itinerary.Qian Yu still needs to write a letter back to save him from worry.

Chen Minghui calculated one by one, and before he knew it, he drank more than half of the bottle of hot water, and ran to the toilet several times during the period.Only then did I check out and leave.

It was already the second day after returning to Haishi, Chen Minghui slept in the bus again, got off the bus, and went directly to the department store regardless of his hunger.

In front of the toy counter was Fan Chunjuan, who was just a few days ago. She saw that Chen Minghui had come over after only five days, and her eyes widened in surprise.

"So many toys are sold out?" There are many small vendors who come to her to buy goods, but none of them sell so fast.

He was much calmer than Chen Minghui with her. He had already thought of this result, but it sold better than expected.At this time, the business was just emerging, and many people were not unable to see through it, but dared not do it.One is afraid of losing money, and the other is that the country may not know when the policy will change again, and business will not be allowed again, and the permanent job will still be stable.

It was this wait-and-see mentality that gave the first batch of businessmen a chance to get rich.

Chen Minghui said: "I went to other places and didn't sell them in Haishi. There are fewer toy vendors over there, so the business will be better."

Chen Minghui concealed the name of the place, and said in a deliberately vague manner.It's not intentional to guard against anyone, but he still points to that place to make a fortune, so he is naturally afraid that someone will hear the news and steal the business.

Fan Chunjuan didn't mean to ask, but she just laughed out of concern for a child.

"That's good. A new batch of toys just came in a few days ago. I'll keep all the defective ones for you." Fan Chunjuan whispered to Chen Minghui in a kind voice.

Chen Minghui knew that she really regarded him as a child, it was not easy to see him, and she simply wanted to help him.Chen Minghui appreciated it and smiled gratefully.

Fan Chunjuan looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so she took out a cloth bag from under the counter.She thought she was doing it secretly enough, but she couldn't hold back someone who cared.

"Fan Chunjuan, what are you holding in your hand?" A slightly familiar mean voice rang in Chen Minghui's ear like thunder. Chen Minghui turned his head, and an afterimage passed before his eyes. The woman had rushed to the counter and grabbed the package.

This woman is exactly the Zhao Pei who looked down on people last time.She opened the package and saw some defective toys with scratches, including a relatively expensive car with a battery, and immediately seemed to pinch Fan Chunjuan's pigtails, with her hands on her hips, refusing to let go.

"I asked you before, didn't you say that there is no more? Why is this again?" Zhao Pei pinched the little train with batteries. This model was very popular with children when Chen Minghui sold it, but the price was too expensive. There are many people, but few people buy. "My son has been thinking about this toy for a long time. I have come to see it several times. You said that there is no defective toy. Why do you have it again now?"

Fan Chunjuan was a little embarrassed at first, after all, they were colleagues who sold goods together all day long, but now that Zhao Pei looked aggressive, as if something happened to her, Fan Chunjuan was also angry.

He replied angrily: "You didn't have any when you asked, but later when you were tallying the goods, you accidentally found a defective one. Why, can't you?"

Zhao Pei immediately asked: "Then why didn't you tell me, I have asked you several times? All defective toys are half price, and my son is just waiting for it."

Fan Chunjuan thought to herself, why, I didn't tell you on purpose, but considering the reasons of being together all day long and the manager being Zhao Pei's relative, I still saved some face for her, "I forgot."

"Forget what, I think it was intentional. Did you just hide it for this little country bumpkin?" Zhao Pei scolded angrily, "You are really shameless. You can't find southeast, north, south, west, and north after being coaxed by a bumpkin." , and even chased Baba into hiding."

Fan Chunjuan was also anxious now, and snatched the toy from Zhao Pei's hand, and said, "I'm selling this thing, and I can sell it to whoever I want, you can't control it."

Then he stuffed the bun toy into Chen Minghui's arms, "Here, you take it. I'll sell you this bag of toys today. I'll see who will grab it or what? There's really no one left."

Zhao Peizi didn't dare to snatch it, but as Fan Chunjuan said, Fan Chunjuan was selling it at the counter, and she could sell it to anyone she wanted, and she couldn't help it.

Zhao Pei stared at the two angrily, suddenly his eyes were filled with viciousness, and with a sneer, Zhao Pei left.

Fan Chunjuan rolled her eyes, "Son, choose any toy you want quickly, and leave as soon as you're done, lest that Zhao Pei make another mess later."

"Will it get you into trouble?"

The child has a good character, he doesn't see money, and he knows that he is afraid of causing trouble for her. He is a good child, and her painstaking efforts are not in vain.

Fan Chunjuan smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm doing things according to the rules and regulations, and the defective products will be dealt with at half price."

Chen Minghui nodded, as long as he doesn't cause trouble for the person who helped him.Chen Minghui quickly glanced at the counter, the types of toys on it have not changed, they are still the same, so it is easy to choose.

Chen Minghui pointed out that several popular models have increased the amount, "This time I will give me [-] electronic watches, [-] small frogs, and this... Finally, I will need [-] sets of this complete set of cars."

"Okay." Fan Chunjuan agreed, and quickly counted and loaded the toys that Chen Minghui asked for.Finding that the quantity of goods requested this time is fully double that of last time, knowing that Chen Minghui has really made a profit, he is also slightly relieved.

After loading things at this end, Fan Chunjuan opened a ticket and asked Chen Minghui to pay the money, when Zhao Pei led a fat man rushing over blah blah.

"Manager Ma, it's that kid, he's speculating!" Zhao Pei's voice was sharp and ear-piercing, and he howled all the people around him.

Speculation was illegal in the first few years, and it needed to be paraded in the streets to criticize and fight. In recent years, it has rarely been heard of, but its power is still deep.The few women who were stretching their necks to get ready to watch the excitement suddenly shrunk their necks in fright, and started busy work at their own counters that didn't need to be busy at all, but their ears were pricked up sharper than rabbits, for fear of missing a word.

Fan Chunjuan was so frightened that her face turned pale and her legs trembled.

"It's okay, big sister, you don't have to be afraid. You are here as a demonstration site for reform and opening up. What you demonstrate is doing business. If doing business is considered speculative, then those small vendors in Haishi are speculative. There must be half of the city. People are gone."

This is true.Seeing that the half-grown child in front of her didn't care at all, was calm and composed, and was more calm and stable than an adult like her, Fan Chunjuan couldn't help feeling a bit ashamed that she couldn't compare to a child, and her age was useless.

However, the person gradually calmed down and was not so panicked.

Manager Ma hurried over with a very embarrassed expression on his face, and the tone of his mouth was full of blame, "Fan Chunjuan, you have been an old employee for many years. The organization trusts you and entrusts you with such an important job. In the end, you It’s speculative to repay the organization like this?”
