When it was time for lunch, Li Zhi's second grandfather, Li Yousheng, came to Li Zhi's house with his grandson Li Zhenpin.
Li Xing went to open the door for his second grandfather. As soon as Li Yousheng entered the door and walked around the screen wall, he said loudly: "Li Zhi! It's only been a few days, are you going to expand your industry again?"
Li Zhi greeted him and asked calmly: "Second Grandpa, do you have any opinions?"
After being choked by Li Zhi, Li Yousheng coughed a few times and then said: "No objection, what do I have? It's a good thing! The poor children in the family have somewhere to earn a living!"
After saying this, Li Yousheng opened the paper in his hand that was filled with a list of ten people, and read out the names of the first nine recommended people one by one. Li Zhi had not read books when he was a child, so Li Yousheng thought he could not read.
Most of these people were relatives from distant places. Li Zhi searched repeatedly in his memory and could only find one or two encounters with these people. He really lacked understanding. Without knowing the situation, he could not select and eliminate them, so he could only agree first.
.
"Second Grandpa, I don't know much about the people you recommended. But I'm going to say something ugly first. I'll use these people first. If they have bad character and are dishonest, I will fire them and send them back."
The second grandfather Li Yousheng nodded and said: "This is natural. If there are dishonest people, I will not let them stay." After a pause, Li Yousheng pulled Li Zhenpin, who was standing aside to watch the fun, over, a little nervous.
He said: "The last one is my grandson Li Zhenpin."
Seeing Li Yousheng recommending his incompetent grandson Li Zhenpin, Li Zhi frowned.
Li Zhenpin was pulled over by his grandfather, glanced at Li Zhi, and unhappily tried to get rid of Li Yousheng's arm, and said loudly: "Grandpa, I told you, Li Zhi doesn't like me, let's not touch his cold ass!"
Li Yousheng scolded Li Zhenpin loudly: "Nonsense! Are you still eating at home? Your brother is a capable person. If you follow him, you will have a great future!"
Li Zhenpin finally got rid of his grandfather's arm and spat unhappily: "What's the big future? Isn't it just making a soap?"
Li Yousheng looked at Li Zhi and then at Li Zhenpin. He couldn't get off the stage for a moment and his face turned red. In anger, he slapped Li Zhenpin on the face. The slap was so powerful that Li Zhenpin
Suddenly he lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Li Yousheng angrily scolded Li Zhenpin on the ground:
"It's just a piece of soap? How do you say that? Now everyone in the Li family depends on your brother's soap!"
Li Zhenpin touched his face, which was so hot that he was beaten, and lay on the ground without getting up.
Seeing that Li Yousheng was so angry, Li Zhi couldn't refuse Li Zhenpin. It was really unjustifiable to refuse him under such circumstances. Li Zhi secretly thought that this was not a trick played by the grandfather and grandson. After coughing, Li Zhi said helplessly
: "Forget it, second grandpa, don't be so angry, just leave Li Zhenpin alone."
Hearing this, Li Yousheng's eyebrows rose with joy, his face suddenly changed shape, and he said with a smile: "Li Zhi...Li Zhi...Second Grandpa, I want to thank you!"
Li Yousheng pulled Li Zhenpin on the ground and said, "If you don't get up yet, thank Li Zhi. Someone else wants you!"
Li Zhenpin covered his face and huddled on the ground, refusing to get up.
Li Zhi smiled and said: "Second Grandpa has been busy all day, so let's come in and have lunch with Zhenpin."
When Li Yousheng heard this, he reached out to pull Li Zhenpin. Li Zhenpin got up from the ground, covered his beaten face, and walked into the main room to eat with his grandfather Li Yousheng.
On one side, Li Zhi recruited troops to expand production, and on the other side, the demand for soap became increasingly popular.
Huan'er, a maid from the Chen family in the pottery shop, bought soap and tried it. The effect was very good, so she bought two pieces for the young lady. The young lady was very happy to use it, and she told everyone she saw how good the soap was. Soon the benefits of soap spread among the Chen family.
The master and madam wanted to use it, as did the eldest and second young masters. The madam even said that she would buy four pieces to give away to others. These people all looked at Huan'er who bought the soap eagerly, and gave her money one after another to ask Huan'er to help them.
Buy it.
Huan'er actually arranged a run for himself.
The soap was in short supply, so you could only buy it if you got up early. That morning, Huan'er got up before dawn, and rushed to Dongcheng Heng Street without eating breakfast. When Huan'er found the soap shop, he saw the storefront
It hasn't opened yet, but there are already more than a dozen people queuing up in front.
Many of the people who queued up early in the morning were regular customers. Knowing the rules of this store, they lined up spontaneously. Huan'er had no choice but to queue at the back, breathing in the cold wind and patiently waiting for the store to open.
While waiting, more than a dozen people came from various places and lined up behind Huan'er.
At noon, the door of the shop slowly opened and business began. The two young men who were selling goods in the shop disappeared and were replaced by a middle-aged man and another unfamiliar young man. The middle-aged man saw
There were so many people queuing up, shouting: "Good morning, everyone!"
"Morning store!"
"Hurry up and start selling. I've been waiting for a quarter of an hour. If I wait any longer, I'll get sick from the cold wind!"
"I've been so angry since I've been waiting, it's too late for your shop to open!"
Li Zhi's second uncle was amused and said with a smile: "Isn't this the right time? Don't worry!" After a pause, Li Dao said again: "In order to let more people buy soap and use soap, today
The boss has made a new rule, one person can only buy two yuan at a time."
As soon as I heard this, the people in line went crazy. This soap is a good thing, fresh and cheap. It is the best gift to give to others. Those who came to line up early were all prepared to buy a few more pieces.
.Now I suddenly heard Li Dao say that each person can only buy two yuan, and they all protested.
"What kind of rule is this? We came so early!"
"I'm still going to buy ten yuan and give it away?"
"How can anyone leave business alone and limit the number of purchases by customers?"
Seeing the guests talking incessantly, Li Zhi's second uncle smiled and said loudly: "Don't be impatient! This is the rule set by the boss. If you have any dissatisfaction, go to my boss. We can only do it as we are helpful.
.”
But there were still people who were unwilling to give in and shouted in the team: "You two salesmen, please be accommodating!"
"The boss has his rules, and we have our own circumstances, right?"
Huan'er also shouted: "Uncle, if you can't buy soap, my master will scold me!"
Seeing that the customers were harboring fantasies, Li Laosi, who was standing aside, shouted at the top of his lungs: "Two yuan per person is too much! If you don't want to buy soap according to the owner's rules, you don't have to buy it!"
Just because Li Laosi was smiling in front of Li Zhi, it didn't mean that he was easy to get along with in front of other people. When he saw the customers making noise, he immediately yelled and scolded them to suppress them.
With one word from Li Laosi, the guests were stunned for a while.
What kind of store is this? The store is bullying customers!
No one dared to object, for fear that the waiter in the shop would stop selling soap to them if he said a few more words, so they could only wait in line with their heads down.
No matter that the customers were full of complaints, Li Dao slowly began to collect money. The people in front of him were all planning to buy more than one yuan, but they could only buy two yuan at this time. Each of them paid forty yuan, feeling sulky.
