Chapter 427: Setting up a street stall for the first time
There were not many people in the tavern, and the woman who sang just now was gone. I walked to the bar.
The waiter asked me what I wanted to drink, and I asked him: "Brother, I would like to ask if there was a woman singing here just now. She was wearing red clothes and had long hair."
The waiter nodded at me and replied: "Yes, what's the matter?"
"Where is she?" I suddenly became excited because this was not an illusion.
"I went to the backyard, what can I do for you?"
"Can I go see her?"
"Go ahead, she's in the backyard." That guy was pretty easy to talk to.
I thanked him profusely and walked towards the backyard of the tavern.
As soon as I arrived in the backyard, I saw the woman who sang just now. She had a cigarette in her hand and was sitting on a wicker chair, smoking leisurely.
My sudden intrusion made her stunned for a moment, then she turned to me and asked: "Who are you?"
I am sure that she is not An Lan, and I am also sure that this face is very different from An Lan.
I smiled politely at her and said, "Sorry, I was attracted by your singing just now."
"Oh, if you want to listen to music, go wait outside. I'll come right after I finish smoking."
I nodded and left the small courtyard and the tavern.
I just miss An Lan so much. I know she will never appear again, but I still don't want to give up every opportunity to see her, but I will be disappointed every time.
When we returned to Nanbin Road, it was already 6:30 in the evening. In winter, it always gets dark earlier, and it was already dark at 5:30.
Lao Fu hasn't come yet, and I don't know if he can come today. I haven't called him. If he can't come, I will try it alone first.
I found the place where Lao Fu usually set up his stall, and I stood up and waited, preparing to set up the stall when there were more people.
To be honest, it was the first time I did something like this, and I was quite nervous because I was afraid of being seen by acquaintances.
After waiting for about half an hour, Lao Fu actually came riding an electric three-wheeler.
I unloaded the goods from the car with him and said, "I thought you weren't coming tonight?"
"Come on, you have to come anyway, today is Friday!"
"But it's a bit cold today, so I guess business won't be very good."
Lao Fu also sighed softly and said, "Yes! The weather is getting colder and colder, and there are gradually fewer people shopping."
"But Christmas is coming in a few days, so business should be very good during those two days!"
Lao Fu nodded and said: "Yes, especially on the night of the 24th, I will be too busy."
"I think we should make some Christmas-related gadgets that day, so that it will be more attractive to tourists."
Lao Fu nodded in agreement, and then I set up the stall with him.
Lao Fu also helped me set up the stall. With Lao Fu's help, I felt much more relaxed and avoided many detours.
I don't plan to live broadcast today, firstly because I haven't created a new account yet, and secondly because it's my first day setting up a stall, and I have to get familiar with it first, otherwise I'll be in a hurry and get annoyed.
It's really cold today. I'm wearing a down jacket and even gloves, but the cold wind is strong.
This feeling is really unpleasant. Now I really envy those people who sit in the office with the air conditioner blowing and enjoy the white-collar life!
It's not that I can't have it. I even want to return to Jiangshan Group now and there's no problem at all. It's just that I really don't want to make the same mistake again.
I just want to do something new. Of course, if I am really desperate, I will still return to the workplace.
Lao Xu and I waited for about half an hour after opening the stall, but there was not a single customer. However, the lady selling hats and gloves next to us did a good job.
Lao Xu and I felt a little sad. We squatted shivering in the cold wind, looking eagerly at the guests who kept passing by. No matter how we shouted, no one took a look.
"What's going on tonight? Usually even if no one comes to spend money, someone will come over and ask a few questions."
"It must be too cold!" I said.
"Maybe, but it shouldn't be so miserable!"
I thought about it and said, "I have an idea."
Lao Fu immediately turned to look at me and asked curiously: "What can I do?"
"Let's have a fight."
"What the hell?" Lao Fu looked at me in confusion.
"You will know what I mean after we have a fight."
"What's the fuss about?" Lao Fu looked confused.
And I stood up directly from the maza and yelled at Lao Fu: "I said you are a disrespectful old man, am I bothering you by setting up a stall? This is my freedom, okay?"
"
Being yelled at by me, Lao Fu was a little confused at first, but since he has been doing small business for many years, he reacted very quickly and understood what I meant immediately.
He immediately yelled back at me: "You little brat, who are you scolding? I've been here for several years, why do you, a stupid young man, come to occupy my position?"
I sneered and said unconvinced: "What you said, could it be that you bought this land? Is it your land? Then you scream and see if this land will agree to your request.
ah."
"You little bastard, don't get in touch with me. Your hair hasn't grown fully when I'm doing business."
"Please, what age are we in now? Do I still need to call you teacher?"
"You should respect me. At least I'm older than you. Do you know what respect is?"
"I don't understand, please teach me!"
"Okay, then I will discipline you on behalf of your parents."
The quarrel between me and Lao Fu soon attracted many passers-by to watch, and I took the opportunity to start selling with Lao Fu.
Many people preferred Lao Fu's side because he was more reasonable in our quarrels. Everyone thought I was a fool, so they all went to take care of Lao Fu's business.
I am not disappointed, but rather complacent because my goal has been achieved.
This lasted for about two hours, and Lao Fu also made a lot of money. Almost all the balloons on the shelf were blown away, and the toys on display were almost gone.
At 10:30 in the evening, the flow of people was still very large, because after the small high tide just now, it gradually calmed down.
Lao Fu took out his cell phone and said to me with a smile: "Xiao Chen, I really have you! Look how much I made in these two hours, it's three times the usual amount!"
I smiled and replied: "Lao Fu, don't worry, I still have many methods, and I haven't used any price wars yet."
"How can gadgets like ours engage in such high-end things as price wars?"
I laughed and said: "Why can't we do this? As long as we are doing business, these methods will be involved."
Lao Fu handed me a cigarette, sighed and said, "It's a shame for you. You haven't had any business in the past two hours, and all of them have gone to my side."
I lit up the cigarette, took a puff and said, "It doesn't matter, let's take our time, trust me."
"I believe you, you young people have more ideas."
While we were chatting, Lao Fu's business came again. Lao Fu threw away his cigarette and went to say hello.
My place is quite deserted, but I'm not in a hurry, I still have many methods, and today is only the first day.
"Brother Chen Feng! Why are you setting up a street stall here?!"
At this moment, a voice came into my ears.
I instinctively raised my head and saw that it was Jiang Qian walking towards me.
