Those years when I raised bosses

Near C University, there are several middle schools and technical schools, which are all officially confirmed college entrance examination sites.Tong Tong walked through the streets and alleys between these schools with her baby in her arms, imitating the mentality of candidates and parents, focusing on the tree-lined route to restaurants and hotels.

After several walks, Tong Tong really found an excellent location, not far from the surrounding test centers, easy to reach, and there are parking spaces along the road nearby.This is an old-fashioned family courtyard. On the first floor along the street, there is already a small shop made of holes in the wall, mainly selling snacks, cold drinks, books and stationery.Before and after school at noon, there are always students passing by here. Looking at the various styles of school uniforms, it can be seen that it has attracted students from many surrounding schools and is very popular.

From here as the starting point, there are roads to several big hotels around, which is very convenient.

Tong Tong carried the baby into the store and bought a small expensive ice cream for himself and the baby. The father and son ate while walking slowly in the store, and found that the prices of various products in the store, especially school supplies, were not expensive , Tong Tong saw the base price of these commodities at the zoo wholesale market yesterday. Even the grocery stores in the villages in the city add [-] cents before selling them. This small shop actually only adds [-] cents.

After careful observation, I found that the boss is not stupid, but relying on geographical advantages, not worrying about customers, selling in large quantities and fast, selling one or two cents less than other companies but earning a lot without selling goods.After chatting for a few words, you will know that the other party goes to buy goods every week, always keeps up with fashion trends, and can tell clearly what types of novel stationery students like to use, and there are many in this store.

This further strengthened Tong Tong's original idea, so he talked with the boss about renting the open space in front of his house for two days on the 7th and 8th, and setting up a stall to sell boxed lunches.

The boss became anxious when he heard it. He had seen the overcrowding of restaurants during the college entrance examination last year. The original plan was to hire someone to start a fire for cooking this year. During the two days of the college entrance examination, he would also join the ranks of box lunches to make a fortune.

But Tong Tong asked: "Is there a food and beverage item on your business license? Without the corresponding license, what if the food you sell is inappropriate?"

The owner of the small shop suddenly came to his senses, but he refused to accept it and said: "Then you have a license to operate catering? If you have a license, you can't sell food in your own restaurant, why bother to squeeze my territory?"

"First of all, the land in front of your house is a public place. You occupied the original urban green grass, sawed the outer fence and laid bricks, and broke the outer wall. All these have not been approved by the relevant departments? At most, you have No one will come to trouble you for your relationship. The greenery and fences in front of the other houses are in good condition." Tong Tong spoke confidently, "So I respect your ability and take the initiative to worship the top of the mountain. Logically, I will occupy the top of the mountain." The place outside the door is like temporary parking of bicycles on the side of the road, do you still have to pay rent?"

The arrogance of the grocery store owner eased.To tell the truth, he opened the wall and invaded the public greenery, and some people have complained to the relevant departments.But he spent a small amount of money to manage it, and the relevant departments pretended not to see it, and they didn't bother to care about such trivial matters for the time being, after all, this is not the core urban area.But in case the city rushes to rectify the appearance of the city, his place will definitely be prone to accidents.People don't raise officials and don't investigate, no one knows the origin of this gentle and handsome man in front of him.

Tong Tong observed the expression of the owner of the grocery store, and he already had a plan in his mind. After hitting with a stick, he threw a candied date: "I don't think anyone has come to talk to you about selling boxed lunches in those two days. I was the first one to take the initiative." The sincerity and our fate of coming to the door for this matter can at least save you from finding the source of lunch boxes yourself. If you are not sensible, you will be embarrassed to drive people here without calling the cart to sell the goods on that day, right? I have a channel to provide boxed lunches in regular restaurants. By setting up a stall for two noon with Guibao, I can not only earn some hard money for myself, but also bring benefits to you, mutual benefit and win-win situation. Think about it, buy food from me on a hot day People, naturally I will buy water and cold drinks and snacks near you. You should prepare more goods when the time comes, and just wait for the money to be collected."

After a lot of eloquent sales, Tong Tong agreed with the boss to rent it for two days at 100 yuan a day. He would set up a stall around noon every day to sell lunch boxes and not sell other things. No matter whether they were sold out before 3 p.m. leave.Tong Tong didn't give the money for free, it was naturally to take advantage of his geographical advantage, and by the way, the two of them could help each other and make more excuses.

After finishing the stall, Tong Tong bought several large sheets of red paper, thick black pens and double-sided tape.This red paper is generally used by students for handicraft classes, or for writing couplets during festivals.Tong Tong bought this thing in order to increase the added value of the lunch box and prepare for the signboard of the booth selling box lunch.

Combining the experience of his previous life, and after research and calculation, Tong Tong estimated the conservative box lunch shipments, so the owner of Liji Restaurant didn't just say 5000 boxes, it was a figure with evidence.In fact, more lunch boxes may not be necessary. During the college entrance examination, the number of candidates in the nearby test centers is estimated to be at least 1 based on the number of test rooms. Each candidate brings a parent, which is double the number, plus the sudden increase in population such as invigilators. The number of people who need to go out for lunch is equivalent to a sudden increase of 3000 people.One-third of them can be eaten at home or brought with them, and one-third can be digested by the five surrounding restaurants. There are still two to [-] people who need boxed meals.

It's just that Tong Tong's capital is really limited, and serious restaurants will also provide takeaways, so the comprehensive evaluation took a conservative figure.Even if there were other income in the few days before the college entrance examination, Tong Tong didn't dare to rush into the box lunch business.Selling boxed lunches involves both opportunities and risks. In case of unlucky encounters and loss of money, you should always save some working capital to temporarily support until the next opportunity to make money comes.

When doing everything, Tong Tong always brought He Xiaolu by his side. The baby is very sensible and never interrupts. He puts any questions in his stomach for the time being. He Xiaolu will ask curiously when he leaves other people's territory. This asks that.Tong Tong used as simple a language as possible to explain the truth to her baby.

If you understand what you don't understand, talk about it, at least it broadens the baby's horizons.Tong Tong has never believed that a top student must be a nerd who waits for others to take care of him. He studies hard and makes progress every day without delaying his ingenuity, making money and enjoying life.If you have a flexible mind and know how to work hard on the points you are interested in, it is easier to be creative and produce academic results.

He Xiaolu is talented and intelligent, and early education and character development are very important.You can't be a scientist if you can't learn, and you have to learn how to make a living anyway.Just like Tong Tong at present, although her family was well-off back then and she didn't need to show her face and rack her brains to make a living, her parents never stopped her from learning about various social situations in all walks of life, and even took the initiative and consciously used those worthwhile means of earning a living. Come out and analyze and share with her.

If he didn't have these experiences and experiences, Tong Tong would definitely be working hard on the construction site at this time.Therefore, the precepts and deeds of parents cannot be ignored.Tong Tong tried his best to make He Xiaolu feel this, and somehow he passed through this body, who knows if he will leave again in the future.At that time, He Xiaolu at least knew how to make money, so that he would not be knocked down by poverty and reduced to mediocrity.

Regardless of the fact that the sales time is only a short two noon, the various preparations before that must not be neglected.After confirming the location of the booth in the morning, Tong Tong took He Xiaolu to work on 3000 bracelets at home in the afternoon.In the evening, I successfully bought the goods at the gate of University C, got [-] yuan in cash, and then went to Liji Restaurant to place a deposit and explain the production requirements of the box lunch in detail.

Because he didn't go to set up a stall in the school, and it happened to be dinner time, Tong Tong gave 3000 yuan in cash that was still in his pocket to Li Daniu of Li Ji Restaurant, in exchange for a light deposit receipt.As soon as he became a big customer of his family, Li Daniu agreed with a smile: "Brother He is so refreshing, I can't take advantage of you by opening the door here to do business. I will treat you tonight, and you father and son can eat whatever you want. It is also a good time to try Try my family's dishes, if there is any problem, we will improve in time."

Tong Tong saw that Li Daniu was so good-for-nothing, so he didn't need to spend too much time talking about dinner, so he also flattered him a few words, and ordered a few home-cooked dishes with high nutrition and meat along with He Xiaolu's meal first. Stomach.

It was the first time for He Xiaolu to have such an exquisite and sumptuous dinner at such a young age. He thought that there were two cold dishes last night, but this morning he ate the beef with sauce and elbow flowers. A real treat.The exquisite porcelain plates were served one by one, all of which were dishes that He Xiaolu had never seen before. They were full of color, fragrance, and taste, and his saliva was already drooling just looking at him, but when he didn't get the consent of his parents, he tried his best to restrain himself from doing it first. eat and drink.Dad said that you need to understand dining etiquette, and Lulu can do it.

"Eat, don't wait too long, don't be too hasty and eat slowly. Dad is rich now, at least he won't let you go hungry again." Tong Tong can finally announce proudly.

He Xiaolu's little cheeks were bulging, and his mouth was full of delicious food, so happy that he couldn't speak.

Tong Tong finished his dinner in twos and then discussed with Li Daniu about the style and dishes of the lunch box.

People in the city pay attention to cleanliness and elegance, so I chose the kind of lunch box that is separated by a grid inside. There are four small and one large and five grids. It turns out that rice occupies the large grid, and one meat and two vegetables fill three small grids, and the other small grid Put pickles.

Tong Tong made a decisive adjustment, replacing the pickles with sliced ​​watermelon.In midsummer, watermelon is already cheap, cut into small pieces, and only three or two pieces are placed in each small grid, but it is more suitable than pickles, and it seems to be of higher grade.There are two kinds of meat dishes, half and half every day, one is stewed chicken nuggets, and the other is fried fish steaks.No other meat is allowed, lest people who don’t eat pork, beef and mutton will pick it up.

After ordering the dishes, Tong Tong asked the rice to be served and sprinkled with a few grains of black sesame seeds. When packing the dishes, he would rather not fill them up than let the overflow mix with each other, so as not to mix the taste and affect the quality.

In the end, I tried my best to win a discount. Each set is 9 yuan, 1000 boxes total 9500 yuan. After deducting the deposit of 3000 yuan, the remaining 6500 yuan can be settled on the afternoon of the 8th.Li Daniu also promised to lend them the tricycle that he usually uses to buy vegetables and deliver lunches.

After finishing the external work, Tong Tong's life will be very regular for the next three days.

Woke up in the morning to teach He Xiaolu to learn simple vocabulary in Chinese and English. There is no teaching material, so Tong Tong writes by hand.He only learns ten Chinese characters and the corresponding English words a day, and He Xiaolu is not required to be able to write.At this time, children's finger control ability is limited, and writing with a pen too early can easily affect bone development.

What I learned in the morning, I will take the test again in the evening. If I can answer correctly, I will teach the new one the next day. If I don’t remember it firmly, I will repeat it again the next morning to deepen my impression.He Xiaolu regards this as a fresh parent-child game, and he has always had a good memory, and he has never answered wrongly, so he is more interested in learning it.

After early study, Tong Tong took the baby out for breakfast, and then went for a walk in the streets and alleys near C University.One is to let He Xiaolu increase his knowledge, and the other is to find other business opportunities.

Tong Tong is already well-read and knowledgeable, and he used his own advantages as a scholar to become a walking book of [-] whys. He can tell a bunch of scientific truths by pointing to a telephone pole on the roadside. Heuristic teaching is used in He Xiaolu. It couldn't be better for a child with a strong thirst for knowledge.
