Chapter 32 Public housing delivery of food, opening up a high-end market
"Buy it for your family and increase your nutrition."
The ribs, slaughtered chickens and fresh fruits and vegetables that Li Feng brought over are not cheap.
"That's too much."
Li Li said while letting Guo Xin and Li Feng into the house. "Take it with you when you go back. I have already bought vegetables early in the morning."
"I still have it at home."
The public housing of Li Li's family is not big. It is about 40 square meters and is designed with three bedrooms and one living room. The living room is very small and has dual functions of a living room and a restaurant. Even so, it is considered good for many people at the bottom.
After all, it’s not that easy to apply for public housing. The average number is six to seven years, and it’s ten years. And it’s only when public housing becomes available.
"Rachel, drink tea."
"Thank you, sister."
Guo Xin took the tea, while Li Feng secretly looked at the room, knowing that he should have lived here before.
"Where's my brother-in-law?"
"Go and watch the stalls."
Brother-in-law Zhang Zhengxiang has a newsstand. Unfortunately, the newspaper industry in Hong Kong is sluggish, and there are fewer newsstands than in the past. In addition, the government has taken over many newsstands to take photos. Although organizations such as the Newsstand Association have done some things,
But it is a fact that newsstands are getting worse and worse.
Although some newsstands have been added to sell drinks, cigarettes, etc., compared with the last century when newsstands were very popular, newsstands are relatively better now except for Hong Kong Island and Tsim Sha Tsui, while other places can almost be said to be bleak.
The older generation of Hong Kong people had morning tea, and almost everyone had a newspaper. But now, young people have a mobile phone, and reading newspapers has decreased. The newspaper industry has long been in ruins, and newsstands have become depressed.
In the past, a newsstand could support a family and even buy several houses. Now the newsstand in Tin Shui Wai opens at three or four in the morning and ends at one or two in the evening. It is considered good to earn three hundred in a day.
Even if the Newsstand Association strives for more than ten kinds of drinks and other products that can be matched, it is only slightly better.
"Jia'an, Jia Ning, uncle is back." Li Feng listened to his sister calling the two little guys to regain their senses.
There are two little guys, the eldest Jia An is about ten years old and the younger Jia Ning is six or seven years old.
The two little guys have a good relationship with their uncle, but they haven't seen each other for a while, and they don't know how to get along with each other.
"Have your Transformers at home."
"Jianing, your doll."
"Thank you, uncle."
"Uncle, where have you been? I miss you?"
Jia Ning took the doll and leaned next to Li Feng, asking in a low voice, not to mention that this little girl seemed more bold than Jia An. "Uncle went out to work."
"Jia'an, Jia Ning calls auntie." Li Li came over with fruit and asked Guo Xin to eat the fruit, while saying to the two little guys surrounding Li Feng.
"Aunt."
"Rachel, try it. This fruit is quite fresh."
"Thank you, sister"
"Sister, please don't be polite."
Li Feng said with a smile, "We greet ourselves."
"Okay, okay, Jia'an, Jia'an, don't disturb auntie, Xiaofeng says hello to Rachel, I'm going to cook." Li Feng and Guo Xin came over, which made Li Li very happy, wiped her hands, smiled and went into the kitchen to work, Guo
Xin stood up to help.
It's just that the kitchen is a bit small, and the two of them can't stand at all. It's impossible for Li Li to ask Guo Xin for help. Seeing that Guo Xin didn't seem to know what to do, Li Feng smiled. "You can help Jia'an with his homework. His English is a bit...
Difference."
"OK."
As a college student, Li Feng himself pulled Jian Ning to play games for such a trivial matter. Boys must be more strict, while girls should be more relaxed. Besides, Jia Ning is still young.
Li Feng played with Jia Ning for a while, then got up and went to the kitchen.
"Sister, let me help."
"No, no, you go and stay with Rachel."
"It's okay, Rachel is supervising Jia'an's homework."
Li Feng talked, helped wash the vegetables, asked about some things at home, and took the initiative by speaking proactively. Li Feng originally planned to sneak in, but when he thought about selling vegetables, he had to bite the bullet.
"There was a car accident?"
Li Li exclaimed and almost cut her hand. "What's going on? Is everything okay now?" Li Li was very nervous as she is like a mother.
"It's okay."
"It's a blessing in disguise."
Li Feng said quite proudly. "Sister, you don't know, the person I saved turned out to be Xiaokai from the vegetable transportation company, and now he wants to thank me for saving his life..."
"Are you given hundreds of kilograms of vegetables every day?"
"Yeah, it's a pity that I don't have a stall. It would be fine if I had more vegetables."
"real?"
Li Li had some doubts. If this was the case, it would be a blessing.
"It's a pity that I don't have channels here. Now these vegetables are handed over to a fat man to help handle them. The price is much cheaper." After speaking, Li Feng pointed to the vegetables in his hand. "These are all organic vegetables."
"Organic vegetables are very expensive, costing more than 30 yuan per pound." Li Li has bought them a few times, but she doesn't often buy expensive ones.
"Now three kilograms is less than twenty mosquitoes."
"So much difference?"
Li Li also stopped what she was doing.
Li Feng explained the reason. He had no channel to sell it, so he could only sell it as the cheapest vegetable.
"I made some friends while delivering food. I'll ask you later."
While talking, she remembered something again. Li Li wiped her hands and went into the house. When she came back, she took out a small roll of money and gave it to Li Feng. "Sister, I have nothing else to help you. Just take this money."
"Sister, I don't want it."
"The money is not much, only fifty thousand."
Li Feng just heard about Li Li's job of delivering food. He thought he was waiting for his two children to go to school and took this time to deliver. This month would cost a few thousand yuan at most, and 50,000 yuan would have to be delivered for at least half a year to save up.
"Take it, you live outside and your family has a lot of money."
Li Li said, "We can't let Rachel go out."
"sister."
"Don't worry about the vegetables, I'll ask about them later," Li Li said. "It's just that it's a little difficult to sell them at a high price." After all, Li Li only knows people in the public housing area. Even if she delivers food, she knows some workers.
Even though their status is not high, they are all at the bottom of society.
But most of these people don't have very high incomes. Li Li usually helps some homeless people, but it's a pity that these people are even less able to help. But you can ask in the community, and sometimes some rich people will come over.
Distribute items.
Li Li would occasionally help out, and if she got an extra piece of food, she would get a free meal.
"Sister, it doesn't matter if the price is lower, the price they gave me is not high."
After talking, Li Feng doubled the purchase and told Li Li. Even so, Li Li thought it was too cheap. If he could sell thirty mosquitoes per catty, he would make a lot of money. "Xiao Feng, you must thank me."
"Sister, I saved him."
"You can't think like that."
Although Li Li doesn't read much, she still understands the truth. People are grateful, but you can't take it for granted. This is very bad. You also know how to be grateful for others' kindness to you.
"Sister, I understand."
While they were talking, brother-in-law Zhang Zhengxiang came back and brought a small cake. Zhang Zhengxiang was very happy to see Li Feng and Guo Xin coming over.
"Jia'an, did Jianing call for someone?"
"have."
"So good."
"Honey, I bought roast goose."
"Xiao Feng brought a lot of vegetables."
"An extra meal!" Zhang Zhengxiang said with a smile. "It's quite a lot. I'll take some back later."
"I still have some at home. I'll give An Jianing some extra meals."
Li Li took the roast goose and said with a smile, "You guys go sit outside and talk. I'll be fine soon."
The living room was not big, so Guo Xin took Jia An and Jia Ning to the bedroom for tutoring. Li Feng said to Zhang Zhengxiang what he had just said to Li Li.
"No problem, I will help you keep an eye on it. Good quality vegetables will always open up sales."
"Brother-in-law, this dish tastes very good. You can try it later."
Li Li and Zhang Zhengxiang didn't expect that what Li Feng said was delicious, it was so good. It was a bit surprising, even Jia An, who doesn't like vegetables, ate a lot. "Such a good dish, buying twenty mosquitoes and three pounds is too much."
It’s cheaper.”
"We have to think of a way."
"Why don't you send it to your neighbors to try it? It tastes so good."
Li Li thought of the simplest and fastest way. You must know that these public housing communities are very large. Let alone one community, as long as one building is taken down, there will be hundreds or thousands of homes. "This is a good idea."
"But I'm afraid these dishes won't be enough."
"Brother-in-law, sister, don't worry, I will bring more vegetables tomorrow."
It's a good idea. Of course, if you want to sell it at a high price, it's a bit difficult in public housing. As long as it's more expensive than Fatty, Li Feng will be satisfied. Besides, the brightness of the light beads seems to have increased. Li Feng suspects that the more living things are put in, the brighter the light beads will be.
The bigger.
The vegetables in Guangzhu are delicious. I think after trying them, I will have a high probability of buying them. They are fresh and delicious and cheaper than the morning market. It is not difficult to open the market. However, Li Feng has no channels. Now that my sister has mentioned the idea, I might give it a try.
Li Feng finally solved his problem. As long as he opens the market here and increases the amount of vegetables he carries, it will be much easier to earn the money to rent a stall license.
Thinking of this, Li Feng became a little anxious and prepared to go back and implement it quickly, bringing more vegetables this time.
After sending it off early tomorrow morning, they had an idea in mind. Li Feng and Guo Xin didn't wait much longer and followed Li Li and Zhang Zhengxiang.
Study hard and uncle will buy you gifts next time."
"Um."
"I'll go deliver it."
Zhang Zhengxiang said to Li Li. When he came out of the stairs, Zhang Zhengxiang grabbed Li Feng and stuffed a small roll of money. "Brother-in-law, I don't need..."
"Take it."
Zhang Zhengxiang said, "I'm going to watch the stalls, so I won't see you off."
"Brother-in-law..."
Zhang Zhengxiang waved his hand. Even though this man in his forties was not tall, he had been supporting the family. He paid for the tuition fees of his predecessor.
