Chapter 97 Eliminating Evil (1)
Xue Yan didn't want to "argue" with her mother, but she also felt that she had to express her attitude, so in front of outsiders, she was a good girl, obedient and sensible. When there were only mother and daughter, she ignored Wu Min and even looked at her.
Indebted.
After one or two times, Wu Min also realized that she seemed to have made another "bad move", but she just couldn't control herself.
A working-class family with no education or quality was able to make a big fuss. They even took over the house of the supply and marketing cooperative and opened a store. She could predict that opening a store in the compound would definitely make a lot of money, but
So what, no matter how much money they have, it can't change their poor, philistine virtues.
It doesn't matter if my daughter is angry with herself. How can a daughter be really angry with her mother? Just leave her alone for a few days.
The "Booming Convenience Store" has established a good reputation since its opening. After the opening of the breakfast shop, the recognition of people in the compound has been raised to a higher level. After several days of practice, Yuan Dazhi made the deep-fried dough sticks crispy and delicious, which is similar to that of Da Yuan.
The old breakfast shop outside the hospital is no less impressive.
It is said to be a breakfast shop, but to be more precise, it should be called a "snack shop", because at noon, steamed buns and steamed buns are also sold here, as well as salads with seasonal fresh vegetables, which are delicious and plentiful.
The weather is getting hotter, and after a long day of work, many people are too lazy to cook after get off work in the morning, so they just want to eat something simple and take a nap as soon as possible. So they will buy a few steamed buns or order a few steamed buns from the snack bar. Wear some cold vegetables and make up for lunch. The more luxurious ones will cut a piece of garlic sausage from the meat factory and bring a bottle of beer.
The influence of paper drawing has spread, and people from outside the compound and even from the living areas of several nearby factories will come here. Several small shops have even come to inquire about purchasing channels. Li Yan signed an agreement with Banshantun Paper Factory
According to the distribution contract, "Prosperous Convenience Store" has the exclusive agency rights for paper poppers in downtown Ancheng. In this way, in addition to retailing, the convenience store also started wholesale.
Broiler chickens are only available on Saturdays, and there is a limit of 20. It is not a purchase price, it is available as the market goes.
Li Yan also contacted several toy factories and customized a batch of "Panpan" plush toys and hula hoops, taking advantage of the opportunity of the Asian Games to make a small profit.
The idea came from Li Kai, but Li Kai didn't think this thing could be big. The Chinese people are too good at imitating and have poor awareness of property rights. This thing has little technical content. Once it comes out, it will be all over the streets within a week.
.
On the second day after the opening, Qiao Xiangdong found Li Yan and talked about rice in the Northeast. Li Yan was very interested. Because it was a return truck for the woolen mill, it was not convenient to bring too much. He planned to try two tons first and wait for Zeng.
The master will do it as soon as he gets out of the car this time.
Qiao Xiangdong casually mentioned marine fish, mainly hairtail and mackerel. In view of the situation that cold fresh fish cannot be preserved, Li Kai came up with an idea - pre-sale, hang a small blackboard outside the door of the convenience store and write down the recent arrival of marine fish.
For information and prices, if you need it, you can go to the store to make a reservation. Not only can the supply be guaranteed, but it is also cheaper than the market price.
Of course, reservations require prepayment, and they are full payment. It doesn't matter if no one makes a reservation. Anyway, it's just a casual thing in the store. If no one makes a reservation, it will be fine, and there will be no loss at all.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Li Yan found a piece of plywood and used colored chalk to write on it the news of ordering hairtail mackerel to ensure freshness and a slightly lower price than the market.
I still underestimated people’s enthusiasm for shopping. As soon as the news was released, more than 1,000 kilograms were ordered in two days, and the trend is continuing to grow.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, from the early 1960s to the late 1980s, the economy was in overall tension. It can be said that materials were extremely scarce, and there was a shortage of goods in the market. Not to mention basic necessities such as food, clothing, housing and transportation, there were only things that were rarely used or were restricted.
None of them are easy to buy. In order to ensure supply and control sales, the state has implemented a planned supply system for major commodities, and the quota is low. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy many items.
At this stage, various kinds of bills appeared. For the public, there were food stamps, cloth stamps, oil stamps, meat stamps and match stamps; for the niche, there were cigarette stamps, alcohol stamps, sugar stamps, soap stamps and industrial stamps. In addition,
There are also menstrual stamps used by women, dung stamps used by farmers, etc. In short, tickets are used everywhere, and tickets are more important than money.
After the reform, with the development of agriculture and light industry, these vouchers were gradually cancelled. By 1990, except for food stamps, all other vouchers basically disappeared.
Tickets have been cancelled, supplies have gradually become more abundant, people's shopping enthusiasm continues to rise, and consumption has experienced a retaliatory spurt. In the past, you no longer have to look at things that you couldn't buy with money, and you can even have the opportunity to choose some high-quality products.
, a scarce thing.
However, transportation and warehousing have become problems again, and product differences between regions have caused new supply difficulties, especially things from the south and coastal areas, which are still rare in the mainland.
Therefore, when I heard the news about the supply of fresh hairtail and mackerel, even if I had to make a full reservation, it was still being snapped up by people. I even thought about buying more. If I couldn’t finish it myself, I could give it to my relatives. No one would be dissatisfied with the good stuff.
many.
No one will worry about being deceived by Li Yan. Firstly, people at this time are honest and there are not so many suspicions and worries. Secondly, Li Yan has always had a good reputation as a person and work, so there is still some trust. Thirdly, it is such a big family.
There is a convenience store, and people will cheat you out of more than ten dollars?
In short, things were done. At the end of the month, the first batch of sea fish arrived, one ton in quantity. The news was announced in the morning, and hundreds of people had gathered in front of the convenience store when I got off work in the afternoon. The procedure was very simple, and every reservation holder had a
There is a white slip drawn by Li Yan, with the quantity marked on it. The white slip is matched with the ledger, weighed, and left.
Buyers are naturally happy, and Li Yan and the others are even more happy. Although the prices in convenience stores are lower than the market price, they have no transportation fees, no storage fees, and even loading and unloading fees, and these
Marine fish is a rare thing in Ancheng, and can be found all along the coast in western Shandong. The price is so low that it makes people want to cry. The price difference alone for this batch of goods is a net profit of more than 3,000 yuan.
In the evening, Li Yan brought a bottle of "Wuliangye" to Qiao Xiangdong's house, and the two had a good drink. Li Yan put down a thousand yuan and asked Qiao Xiangdong to take care of what he deserved and reward him. The driver's hard work should not be in vain.
, tell him if you don’t have enough money.
One thousand yuan is definitely enough, and it gives Qiao Xiangdong at least half of his wealth. Money is earned by everyone, and Li Yan knows that if you want to do something for a long time, you can't be stingy, and you have to share the benefits.
Li Yan drank too much again. After finishing one bottle of wine, Qiao Xiangdong took out another bottle of "Maotai" and continued drinking. If Miao Yaqi hadn't stopped him, the second bottle would have been destroyed.
On the way home, Li Yan was a little confused. He always felt that what Lao Qiao said in the second half was a bit incomprehensible. His son was good and his daughter was also excellent. It was all a mess.
She feels dizzy and can't think about it anymore. If anything happens to the children, just ask Li Kai to help her with her studies in the future. As a parent, you only have to worry about your studies.
After closing on the last day of May, Li Yan and Yuan Dazhi took stock of the operating income since the opening. After excluding the unpaid payment of the paper mill, they found a net profit of 16,300 yuan after operating for 12 days.
Entering June, the weather has become hotter, people gradually put on summer clothes, and girls who love beauty finally put on the skirts they have missed for a long time.
Li Kai still couldn't figure out why in school, girls can wear skirts, but boys can't wear big pants.
Typical sexism.
After school that day, Li Kai did not go to the convenience store to help. Now the store employs two salesmen, an aunt and a young man. Li Yan has officially retired from work. He is only responsible for coordinating and bulk purchasing, and there is no need for Li Kai. But often
Dalong rushes home to cook after school, so the two boys don't have to be tired of being together all the time. Moreover, Chang Dalong likes cooking very much now. Every time he sees Li Yan and Liu Fengzhi eating to their satisfaction, he is happiest.
Li Kai wants to buy a handicraft album for his little cousin Qi Meiling. It’s the little girl’s birthday in a few days, and he will send it to her as a birthday gift. The little girl has grown up now, and she can no longer be coaxed by just some snacks.
There are also higher-level pursuits.
The newsstand is outside the compound, a bit far away. It is located at the gate of the living area of the battery factory a few hundred meters away. There is a road in the middle and two small alleys.
