Because of what happened to Fu Zhiqiang, I always felt sorry for Lao Fu, but I was really the most benevolent and righteous person towards Zhiqiang.
Lao Fu was very enthusiastic on the phone, saying that their family's life was better now, and thanks to some of my advice, he asked me to visit his house no matter what.
I had no choice but to agree. After I got home, I tidied up a little, took a shower and changed my clothes.
Just when I was taking a shower, I discovered a strange thing. There was a bottle of shower gel in English in my bathroom.
Of course I can understand English. This shower gel is of great value.
It is impossible for my mother to buy this kind of shower gel. She is used to using soap, and she will not use even ordinary shower gel.
After taking a shower, I took this bottle of shower gel to my mother and asked her, "Mom, this shower gel doesn't belong to you, does it?"
I was stunned for a moment, and then he said, "I don't need this."
"Whose is this? Why is it placed in our bathroom?"
"It should be used by the staff member sent by their company. I think she usually uses this."
I subconsciously glanced at the closed room upstairs, and then asked my mother: "Is she a boy or a girl?"
"A girl doll."
I nodded thoughtfully and put the shower gel back in the bathroom.
I have always found it a bit strange that I have only seen one person use this shower gel, and that was An Lan.
An Lan's body was filled with the scent of this shower gel, I remember it so well.
So when I saw this bottle of shower gel, I was in a daze.
But I knew I was overthinking it. How could An Lan be still alive, and how could he be in my house?
I didn't think about these things anymore. After changing my clothes, I told my mother that I was going to a friend's house and might not be back today.
I took a motorcycle to the town and transferred to a bus. It took more than three hours of bumpy ride before I finally entered the city.
Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the city is extremely deserted. The traffic and people on the streets are much less than usual. Most people have gone home to celebrate the New Year.
It was already after five o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived at Lao Fu's house. I knocked on the door and it was Lao Fu who opened the door for me.
As soon as the door opened, I smelled a fragrant smell. This is the feeling of home.
I handed the gift in my hand to Lao Fu, and Lao Fu said politely: "Oh, what are you doing? You can just come, why are you spending all this wasted money?"
I replied with a smile: "I am celebrating the New Year and the holidays, is it fair for me to come here empty-handed?"
"You're welcome to come to my place, just treat it like your own home." Lao Fu said as he found some slippers for me to put on.
After putting on my slippers, Lao Fu led me to the living room. Passing by the kitchen, I saw Lao Fu's wife and his daughter cooking in the kitchen.
When they saw me, they smiled and greeted me, but I was the only one who didn't see Fu Zhiqiang.
After sitting on the sofa, I asked Lao Fu: "Lao Fu, why didn't I see Fu Zhiqiang?"
Lao Fu sighed and said, "This kid asked me for 10,000 yuan and ran out early this morning."
"Why does he ask you for money during this Chinese New Year?"
Lao Fu shook his head and handed me a cigarette and said, "I don't know what he does. I'll give it to him if he wants it. I'm celebrating the New Year and I don't want to quarrel with him."
I sighed softly, lit my cigarette and said, "Lao Fu, I don't know what to say. I vowed to take him to Chengdu before, thinking I could help him change, but I didn't expect it."
Lao Fu smiled bitterly and replied: "Xiao Chen, it's not your fault. You have good intentions. It's just that Fu Zhiqiang is already like this and can't change it."
"Then don't spoil him too much, otherwise he will become even more unscrupulous."
Lao Fu fell silent, and his happy mood suddenly became a little strange.
I shouldn’t be talking about these topics during this Chinese New Year, so I quickly changed the topic and asked Lao Fu: “Lao Fu, how is your business lately?”
Speaking of this matter, Lao Fu regained his energy and hurriedly nodded and replied: "Okay, very good. Now my wife and my daughter are here to help. When the time comes, we will be too busy."
After a short pause, Lao Fu continued: "Now our daily net profit is one or two thousand yuan, and sometimes it can be three or four thousand yuan."
"Really? That's really good." I nodded happily.
Lao Fu said to me with gratitude: "I've been really unlucky all my life. I didn't expect that when I'm old, I'd meet a guy like you who showed me such a way. God finally didn't push me."
"Dead end"
I smiled coquettishly and took another puff of cigarette before saying, "Lao Fu, I actually didn't help much, so you have to thank yourself."
"No, no, no, if you didn't tell me this idea, I would never have thought of opening a store to sell vegetables."
I smiled again, and Lao Fu said: "By the way, Xiao Chen, my daughter said that what kind of Internet society is it now? Everything is done online, especially young people. My daughter said that you can also sell vegetables on Dear Online.
, is there such a saying?”
I was stunned for a moment. There is no such model yet, but there are already corresponding models, such as Meituan.
Meituan also offers door-to-door food delivery, but there is no dedicated app for this.
I nodded and said to Lao Fu: "There is a saying that some young people now don't want to go out to go to the vegetable market. They can have it delivered to their home by just clicking on it with their mobile phones."
So Lao Fu asked me again: "Then do you think we can also create this model online?"
I smiled and said jokingly: "Isn't Lao Fu too greedy immediately? Isn't business pretty good now?"
Of course, Lao Fu also heard my joke, and he smiled and replied: "Don't I also want to get a share of you young people? I, an old man, have to follow the trend."
While we were talking, Lao Fu's daughter Fu Miaomiao came out of the kitchen.
While wiping the water on her hands, she said to me: "Brother Chen Feng, do you think it is possible for us to build a platform specifically for home delivery of vegetables?"
After hearing Fu Miaomiao's question, I saw that they really seemed to have this idea. It was a good idea, but it was also quite difficult.
Because I was born in software development, I know very well that once the Internet is involved, a lot of funds are needed to invest in it. How many Internet companies have died due to lack of funds in recent years.
The Internet is an industry that can make people turn around, and it is also an industry that can make people bankrupt. Some people have become rich and reached the top of their lives, while others have gone to jail or even ended their lives because of it.
This is not alarmist. Not everyone can touch the Internet. Even if you have a good idea, but you don’t have a lot of money to invest in it, then just wait for bankruptcy.
It was because I knew these things that I said to Lao Fu with all my heart: "Lao Fu, of course everyone can do the Internet, but not everyone can do it. Once the Internet is involved, at least you will be behind you."
It takes tens of millions to support it.”
"You want so much!?" Lao Fu opened his eyes wide in fright.
I nodded and replied in a deep voice: "It is no exaggeration to say that tens of millions is just scratching the surface. As for the major e-commerce platforms we know now, they all had strong capital behind them when they started their businesses.
operational.”
After listening to my words, Lao Fu turned his head and looked at Fu Miaomiao.
Fu Miaomiao also nodded and said, "Dad, Brother Chen Feng is right, this does cost a lot of money."
After hearing this, Lao Fu shook his head without hesitation and said: "That won't happen, we won't do it, let's just do a small business."
Although Lao Fu said he wouldn't do it, I had some ideas in my mind.
