"Alas..." Xiaoyun sighed: "That was in the past. The bar's business has been very bad recently. It is basically operating at a loss every day, which makes Manager Zhu anxious. Later, in order to attract business, Manager Zhu also
We specially printed a lot of advertising flyers and asked us to distribute them on the roads... Unfortunately, it still had no effect in the end. We persisted for two months. Finally, Manager Zhu couldn't hold on any longer and had no choice but to close the shop and cease operations."
"How could this happen?" Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "It's so good, how come the bar's business has become so deserted?"
"I don't know, and I don't know why. The bar's business plummeted overnight. I heard that Manager Zhu plans to sell the bar and go into other businesses." Xiaoyun said helplessly.
Gangzi and Huzi were also in a bad mood. They had just established a foothold in the bar and were about to have a big fight when the bar closed down, making Gangzi and Huzi very depressed.
"What are your plans?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"I don't know. Huzi and I are uneducated and have no skills, so we can't find good jobs at all." Gangzi picked up the wine bottle, raised his neck and drank more than half of the bottle.
Xiaoyun also shook his head: "I don't know what to do either."
Huzi opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he closed his mouth again for some unknown reason.
Ma Xiaoyao noticed something strange about Huzi: "Huzi, do you have something to say?"
Huzi licked his lips: "Boss, I have an idea, but..."
"What do you think? Tell me?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
Gangzi and Xiaoyun also looked at Huzi with doubts on their faces.
"Well... I want to rent a store and open a supermarket." Huzi expressed his thoughts: "I have observed that there are not many supermarkets now. If I really open one, I should make money."
"Open a supermarket?" Ma Xiaoyao nodded slightly: "This is a good idea. As long as you choose the right location, it shouldn't be difficult to make money."
"Opening a supermarket is a good idea, but doesn't it require a lot of money?" Gangzi said in a deep voice.
Huzi nodded: "It probably costs tens of thousands of yuan."
"Ten thousand yuan?" Gangzi's eyes suddenly widened: "Where can we get so much money? I only have a few hundred yuan on me now."
Huzi smiled bitterly and said: "I also know that I don't have money, so I never talked about opening a supermarket."
"I have 30,000 yuan here, which should be enough for you to open a supermarket." Ma Xiaoyao suddenly said.
"Boss, how can we ask for your money..." Gangzi said hurriedly.
Huzi also shook his head repeatedly: "Yes, we absolutely cannot ask for your money."
Ma Xiaoyao smiled: "Who said it was given to you for free? I lent it to you, listen carefully, I want interest, do you understand?"
"Boss..." Gangzi and Huzi wanted to say something else.
"Okay, it's settled. I will take out the money and give it to you tomorrow." Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "You go and rent a store in a better location. Remember, work hard and don't let me down.
"
"Boss... thank you, we will not let you down!" Huzi said gratefully.
Gangzi also patted his chest and promised that he would build up the supermarket and return the money to Ma Xiaoyao as soon as possible with interest.
Xiaoyun sat quietly beside him without speaking.
Ma Xiaoyao looked back at Xiaoyun and said, "Xiaoyun, if you can't find a good job, run the supermarket with Huzi and the others."
"Ah?" Xiaoyun was stunned: "This...I..."
"Yes, Xiaoyun, you can work with us. When we make money, the three of us will share it equally!" Huzi and Gangzi laughed.
"I...I'm afraid that I can't do it..." Xiaoyun said, biting her lip.
"What's wrong? Xiaoyun, you are thoughtful and manage the accounts, while Gangzi and Huzi purchase goods, deliver goods, and sell. If you divide the work, the supermarket will definitely prosper." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Yes, Xiaoyun, just agree." Huzi and Gangzi said together.
Xiaoyun hesitated for a moment, then slowly said: "How about I... give it a try..."
"That's right, I will take out the money and give it to you tomorrow." Ma Xiaoyao said with a smile: "Come on, let's stop talking and drink quickly!"
"drink wine!"
Huzi, Gangzi and Xiaoyun picked up the wine bottle and touched it lightly with Ma Xiaoyao, then raised their necks and drank.
After determining the direction of their struggle, Huzi, Gangzi and Xiaoyun's depressed moods were immediately swept away, and they drank to their heart's content.
The four of them drank two boxes of beer, and everyone was a little drunk, especially Xiaoyun, whose face was as red as a tomato.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ma Xiaoyao stood up to pay the bill and led Gangzi, Huzi and Xiaoyun out of the bar.
"Huzi, can you still drive after drinking so much?" Ma Xiaoyao looked at Huzi who was swaying, feeling a little worried.
"No problem, I'm awake." Huzi smiled.
"Are you really okay? If you think it's not okay, I'll drive it." Ma Xiaoyao was still a little worried.
"Oh, boss, just rest assured, I'll be fine." Huzi directly pushed Ma Xiaoyao into the car, and then after Gangzi and Xiaoyun also entered the van, Huzi got into the cab,
Turn on the ignition, put the car into gear, release the handbrake, step on the accelerator, lift the clutch, and the van sped out with a whoosh.
Out of inertia, Ma Xiaoyao's body suddenly tilted to the side. Coincidentally, Xiaoyun also tilted towards Ma Xiaoyao... The two people bumped into each other tightly... Oh, no, to be precise
, they should be "hugging" each other tightly.
"Uh..." Ma Xiaoyao suddenly felt something unusually soft in his hand. Out of curiosity, Ma Xiaoyao squeezed it gently a few times.
"Well..." Xiaoyun, who was lying in Ma Xiaoyao's arms, groaned.
Ma Xiaoyao suddenly woke up and looked down. Good guy, his big hand was pressing on Xiaoyun's towering chest... Ma Xiaoyao hurriedly let go of his hand and said with an embarrassed look: "That...Xiaoyun...I...
Actually...I didn't...intentionally..."
Xiaoyun lowered his head, his face as red as a monkey's butt: "No...it doesn't matter..." Xiaoyun liked Ma Xiaoyao to begin with, not to mention that Ma Xiaoyao accidentally touched the white rabbit on her chest, it was intentional.
If you touch it, Xiaoyun won't mind.
Huzi was driving the car, so he didn't notice anything unusual about Ma Xiaoyao and Xiaoyun, but Gangzi, who was sitting in the back seat, looked at him. Gangzi's expression at this time was very exaggerated, and he reached out and poked Ma Xiaoyao on the shoulder: "
Boss, how did you feel just now?"
"Feeling? What feeling?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned.
Gangzi glanced at Xiaoyun's chest and chuckled, "Of course it feels like that there."
"You gangster, you dare to tease me!" Ma Xiaoyao was furious, stretched out his right hand and pressed Gangzi's neck, then raised his left hand and began to repair Gangzi.
"Oh...Boss, I was wrong...I don't dare to do it anymore, please forgive me..." Gangzi begged for mercy again and again.
Xiaoyun was already too embarrassed to raise his head.
Huzi, who was driving, was very puzzled: "Boss, Gangzi, what's wrong with you? You're so good, how come you're not making the same gestures?"
"Huzi, drive your car and mind your own business!" Ma Xiaoyao shouted at Huzi.
"Huzi, help me, I just saw something I shouldn't have seen, so the boss wants to kill people and silence them..." Gangzi wailed.
Huzi became more energetic when he heard this: "Gangzi, what did you see? Tell me quickly!"
"I saw the boss... Oops..." Before Gangzi could finish his words, he received a "big steel hammer" on his head. The pain made Gangzi grin.
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will sew your mouth shut with a needle!" Ma Xiaoyao threatened.
"Stop talking, stop talking, boss, please spare my life..." Gangzi immediately begged for mercy.
"Hmph!" Ma Xiaoyao let go of Gangzi and said, "Watch your mouth. If you let me know that you dare to speak ill of me behind my back, I will definitely not let you go."
"No, definitely not!" Gangzi hurriedly assured.
Ma Xiaoyao glared at Gangzi fiercely, and then turned around. When he saw Xiaoyun who lowered his head and said nothing, Ma Xiaoyao suddenly showed a trace of embarrassment on his face and didn't know what to say.
"Boss, what happened just now?" Huzi asked curiously.
"Driving your car, why are you talking so much nonsense!" Ma Xiaoyao snorted.
Huzi twisted his mouth: "Okay, okay, I won't ask anymore, I won't ask anymore." After saying that, Huzi closed his mouth and started driving the car with concentration.
A few minutes later, the van stopped and Huzi turned around: "Boss, we're here."
Ma Xiaoyao glanced at Xiaoyun, who was still lowering his head: "Xiaoyun, I..."
"Brother Ma, I'm fine. Really, you go home. I wish you a good night's sleep." Xiaoyun raised his head and smiled at Ma Xiaoyao.
Seeing that Xiaoyun was indeed fine, Ma Xiaoyao felt a little calmer, turned around and got out of the car.
"Boss, let's go." Huzi said hello and drove away in the van.
After watching the van disappear, Ma Xiaoyao turned around and walked into the community. As he walked, he muttered to himself: What happened today is so bad. I guess Xiaoyun must regard me as an improper man now. Alas... Brother's reputation
It's so ruined...
When Ma Xiaoyao returned home, Zhang Chunfang and Ma Dahai were already asleep. Ma Xiaoyao changed into his slippers and tiptoed back to the bedroom. He took off his clothes and jumped on the bed. After smoking two cigarettes, he felt sleepy.
Xiaoyao covered herself with quilt and went to sleep.
…
A night of silence.
Ma Xiaoyao got up early the next morning. After washing up, Ma Xiaoyao went to the living room to have breakfast.
Today's breakfast is quite rich, including fried dough sticks, soy milk, millet, and pies, which Zhang Chunfang bought from outside early in the morning.
"Mom, why did you go out to buy breakfast today? Don't you usually make it yourself?" Ma Xiaoyao picked up a fried dough stick and ate it. The fried dough stick was very crispy and tasted delicious.
"I guess you're all tired of eating my breakfast all the time, so I'm going to give you a change today." Zhang Chunfang pushed a bowl of hot soy milk in front of Ma Xiaoyao.
