Chapter 23

Chapter 23 The first day of the stall

Author: Banana isn’t it?

"I'm going to try it in front of the cinema."

Chun Yusheng thought for a while and said, "This is a pretty good place."

"Yeah, I think so too. People who go to the movies are all young lovers. It's a time of tenderness and sweetness. If a girl wants a drink, how can the boy not buy it? Do you think so?"

"Yes, um... what kind of drink would you like to drink?" Chun Yusheng asked sheepishly.

Lu Qingtian scratched her head, why did she suddenly ask her what drink she wanted to drink? This is what she bought, would she still be short of drinks?

Pei Renjie looked anxiously on the side, wondering why a girl who usually seemed quite smart was so slow today.

"What Brother Sheng means is that the boys in other couples have bought drinks for the girls, so he will buy them for you too."

"Ah? No need, I'm full." Lu Qingtian blushed.

The movie theater wasn't too close, so Lu Qingtian originally thought of asking a three-bouncer to sit there.

Chun Yusheng was worried and had to let Pei Renjie send them away.

The one with four wheels is faster than the one with three wheels.

"Brother Chunyu, Brother Pei, thank you. You go back first. Lailai and I will go back after we have finished selling."

Chun Yusheng nodded, "Don't be too late."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention to safety."

The customers at the entrance of the cinema are completely different from those at the entrance of the school. They are a little older than the students. Generally, young people who are willing to come to the cinema to watch movies still have a lot of money, and they are also relatively receptive to new things.

Lu Qingtian started shouting.

After a while, it attracted the attention of a few passers-by, including a young couple.

"Brother, buy it for me~"

"Okay baby, which one to drink?"

"Pearl milk tea."

"How many bottles do you want? Our second bottle is half price, the first bottle is 80 cents, and the second bottle is only 40 cents."

Lu Qingtian found that most girls were buying it, and boys generally didn't drink it.

If we wait a little longer, everyone will go in when the movie starts.

Lu Qingtian decided to fight quickly.

Sure enough, the half price on the second bottle attracted many people. They originally planned to buy one bottle for two people to share the taste, but ended up buying two bottles.

On the first day of the stall, although the process was a bit bumpy, luckily everything was sold out in the end.

Lu Qingtian and Jiang Lai walked back while summing up their experiences.

"We shouldn't sell them in front of high schools, we should sell them in front of universities."

"Yes, it's best to go to the entrance of the Normal University. There are many girls. Don't go to the entrance of the Polytechnic University. Men don't like to drink this stuff."

"And we came to the cinema too late."

"Yes, you should check the movie opening schedule. Come half an hour before then. It will definitely sell better."

"It would be great if there were disposable cups. We could get some and try them out." Lu Qingtian said with emotion.

"What is a disposable cup?" Jiang Lai asked.

Lu Qingtian gestured as he spoke, "It's the kind that's small, made of plastic or paper, and needs to be thrown away after one use."

Jiang Lai thought for a while, "I saw the disposable cup you mentioned in the hospital. Some people used it to hold urine for examination. I wonder if there are any for sale?"

"Really? That's great. It's a bit late today. Let's go look for it tomorrow and see if we can buy some."

The two of them summarized and walked back.

The evening breeze blew gently, adding a bit of coolness to the summer night.

"Look, the moon is so full tonight." Jiang Lai pointed to the sky and said.

Li Ke looked up, and sure enough, the round moon was like a silver plate, embedded in the dark blue sky. The faint moonlight shone on the earth, as if the streets, trees, and houses were coated with a layer of mercury.

I don’t know if I will miss this night after so many years, so ordinary, yet so beautiful.

After the two of them went back, they planned to wash the glass bottles first.

On the kitchen chopping board, under a cover made of fine gauze, are two bowls of mung bean porridge.

There is also a cleaned glass bottle placed against the wall on the chopping board.

Jiang Lai swallowed, "Is this for us?"

Lu Qingtian was also hungry, "I'll go ask."

If it is not the case and the drink is wrong, then the old lady will have to endure it.

Seeing that the lights in the main room were still on, Lu Qingtian didn't feel embarrassed to go in, so he stood at the door and asked, "Grandma Wan, is the mung bean porridge for us two?"

"Well, I'll give you back your pearl milk tea." Grandma Wan said in a firm tone.

Could this old lady be hard-spoken and soft-hearted?

Attitude is not important, tone is not important, what is said is not important, what is done is important.

Lu Qingtian didn't care about Grandma Wan's bad temper, "Thank you, Grandma Wan. Grandma Wan, you are so kind."

"Humph." The little girl gave her old lady some ecstasy soup again.

Lu Qingtian trotted back to the kitchen, "Hurry up and drink, it's left for us."

The two of them picked up the bowl with mung beans and soup and drank it all in one go.

The mung beans are boiled soft and soft, and with a little sugar, they are sweet and thirst-quenching.

Jiang Lai couldn't finish drinking, "Grandma Wan is such a good person."

After cleaning up and washing up, the two of them sat on Lu Qingtian's bed and started counting money and settling accounts.

I sold five bottles of pearl milk tea, three bottles of lemonade, and two bottles of jasmine green tea at the school gate for a total of six yuan and ten cents.

Five bottles of pearl milk tea, seven bottles of lemonade, and eight bottles of jasmine green tea were sold at the entrance of the cinema. The second bottle was sold at half price, totaling seven yuan and four cents.

"Tonight, we sold a total of thirteen yuan and fifty cents, which is a lot." Jiang Lai was very satisfied.

Lu Qingtian was thinking about the purchase cost. It cost three yuan to buy ice cubes today.

I spent 7 yuan and 50 cents to buy other raw materials, but only a little bit of tea leaves and tapioca flour were used, and a little more lemon and sugar were used, which cost only 2 yuan at most.

In other words, not counting labor, the cost is five yuan.

This is equivalent to making eight and a half cents today.

"Lailai, we made at least eight and a half cents today." Lu Qingtian sounded excited.

"That's so much. A salesperson in a department store only earns 1.5 cents a day. We made 8.5 cents in just one afternoon and evening!" Jiang Lai happily grabbed Lu Qingtian's hand, "You're not wrong."

"No, it's definitely not wrong. I calculated it twice."

Although I encountered many problems today, I bought too much ice cubes and did not use them up.

At first, I couldn't find the right place to sell drinks, but later I changed my location from the school entrance to a movie theater.

The price also became half price for the second bottle, and both of them were worried about losing money and making a profit.

But fortunately, the final result was good, and I actually made money in the end, and I made a lot of money.

All the hard work and attempts today are worth it,

The two girls fell asleep with the excitement of making money.

The next day, Lu Qingtian was woken up by Jiang Lai's knock on the door.

"What time is it? Just hurry up." Lu Qingtian went to open the door sleepily.

"Hey, it's already half past seven. Hurry up and wash up. I've made breakfast."

"It's only half past seven." Lu Qingtian said weakly.

Lu Qingtian got up in a good mood, never expecting to meet a love rival today.
