I'm sorry, everyone … Most of the words I've written have nothing to do with the main plot of the book. It's a bit lame. After so many years, the author had to tear down all the things he had done when he was a child. He was speechless and choked with emotion. My green years … So I'll update the next chapter at 3 p.m.
I don't know if you remember, but when I was a child, the popsicle stand would hang the wrappers of the popsicles on a small shelf so that people could see at a glance what kind of popsicles they were selling.
Li Jian had borrowed a shelf from the wholesale popsicle stand and hung the wrappers of red beans, hawthorn, and ice bricks on it.
Everyone looked at the rack behind the counter where the swimsuits were hung.
"Hey, the style of these swimsuits looks good?" A young girl walked to the shelf and touched the material of the swimsuit with her hand.
"Wow, they are seersucker, the most popular one this year. I haven't had time to buy them yet." The girl was very surprised. She asked the others, "Do you have any other styles?"
Qin Guan pouted at Zhou Jing, "Go and serve them."
Zhou Jing rushed forward and took out all the women's swimsuits from the plastic bags. He introduced them to the girl, "Look at this one. Isn't it bright? Blah, blah, blah. "
Li Jian was already selling soft drinks over there. "Hey, young man, I'm thirsty. Give me a bottle of orange soda."
"Sure. One yuan a bottle. Here you are." “
Qin Guan introduced the swimming rings to the tourists, "You can rent them for five yuan an hour, regardless of their size. The rings are made of rubber. They are absolutely thick and safe …"
When the tourists left, Li Jian had sold five bottles of soda and made a net profit of two yuan and fifty cents.
Qin Guan rented out two swimming rings and a parasol. A 60 yuan deposit was collected.
Zhou Jing sold a women's swimsuit and a men's briefs, making a net profit of 42 yuan.
It was a good start.
It was a busy day. There were always small businesses, such as a bottle of soda and a popsicle.
It was not a developed beach in Y City, so there were not many tourists. The whole beach was packed like dumplings.
Even so, by the end of the day, women's swimsuits sold the best, with four pieces sold. Children's swimsuits sold two pieces each for boys and two pieces for girls, and two pieces for men's swimming trunks.
Income as follows: Women's swimsuit purchase price: 12 yuan Retail price: 40 yuan
Men's swimming trunks purchase price: 6 yuan; retail price: 20 yuan
Men's/Children's Swimming Trunks Purchase Price: 6 Yuan Retail Price: 15 Yuan
Women's/Children's Swimsuit Purchase Price: 10 yuan Retail Price: 30 yuan
The net profit of the swimsuit business that Zhou Jing was responsible for was 160 + 40 + 30 + 60-48-12-12-20 = 198 yuan.
Qin Guan returned the deposit. He had rented out four umbrellas for an average of two hours per umbrella, 40 yuan in total. He had rented out six large swimming rings for two hours per person, 60 yuan in total. He had rented out three small ones for an average of two hours per person, 30 yuan in total.
Qin Guan's rental profit: 40 + 60 + 30 = 130 yuan.
Li Jian was in charge of the sales of soft drinks and popsicles. He sold 48 popsicles of the same price range, including red beans, green beans and hawthorn popsicles. Sixteen Longevity Ice Bricks were sold. Two boxes of 48 bottles of orange soda were sold out.
The retail price of the red beans was the same as the orange soda, 50 cents. The Longevity Ice Bricks were the most expensive, 1.5 yuan. That was how it worked out.
Li Jian was in charge of the sales of food: 24 + 24 + 24-9.6-14.4-9.6 = 38.4 yuan.
The popsicle business, which seemed to be the largest among the three of them, had a pitiful profit. However, it was a magic weapon to increase the popularity of the stall. Even a mosquito's leg was meat.
That day, the total income of the three of them was 198 + 130 + 38.4 = 366.4 yuan.
Zhou Jing and Li Jian were beaming with joy at the good income.
The three of them placed the freezer, the swimming ring, and the parasol at the ticket office. Before they left, they didn't forget to give the lady at the ticket office ten red bean popsicles so that she could bring them home for her child.
They rode home happily on their tricycles. It was their first day of business, so all the soft drinks had been sold out by noon. They needed to restock.
Zhou Jing had to restock the goods the next morning and hand over the money to his aunt. Half-body swimsuits were available. Qin Guan's only two half-body swimsuits had been sold out.
It was just the beginning of July, and there would be a peak period of tourism in the middle of July. Many tourists from the province would come to Y City to enjoy a leisurely seaside trip. That would be the peak period of sales.
There were enough swimming rings for now, but they would double in the middle of July. The wholesale price of a swimming ring was only 10 yuan, and it could be reused. It was worth it.
By the way, they would rent three folding chairs as beach chairs. If there were no customers, they would make their own chairs. After standing for a whole day, their legs and stomachs were cramping.
Feeling happy about that day's harvest, the three of them headed for the city under the rising moonlight. They had been hungry all day, so dinner was very important.
They planned to go to Mother Wang's Wonton Pancake Shop in the city.
Some people say that the stomach is like a pocket, and the opening is the hometown. The sourness, sweetness, bitterness and spiciness of childhood were the original taste of life. They were like genes injected into the body, accompanying it for a lifetime.
Whether in his previous life or this one, wonton pancakes would always leave a fragrant taste in his mouth whenever he thought of them.
Mother Wang's Wonton Pancake Shop was a very small restaurant, curled up in the alley of the residential area. The signboard was very small, and on the doors and windows were written words such as "fried pancake" and "wonton" as a gimmick.
The stove was set up outside the house, and there were three tables in the house. There were only a dozen people sitting there. The boss was a mother and son who treated people kindly. Although the conditions were simple, the price was low, and it was very popular with students and people who worked nearby.
The three of them greeted the owner of the shop, parked the tricycle, and entered the shop.
According to the menu, the three of them each ordered a bowl of wonton, two small deep-fried pancakes, and a plate of cucumber salad. It was simple.
The meal was quickly prepared. Soon, two bowls of piping hot wonton were served. They were filled with high-bottomed blue and white porcelain bowls.
The wonton's skin was very thin, and there was not much meat in it. It looked crystal clear, and the soup was very clear. There was a layer of yellow egg, chopped green onions, and coriander floating on the surface of the soup. A few drops of sesame oil and pepper had been sprinkled on it before it was taken out of the pot. It looked very appetizing.
The term "deep-fried pancake" had different meanings in different places. The deep-fried pancake in Y City was baked with peanut oil and chopped green onions. The quality of the pancake was judged by the number of layers. The more layers, the softer the pancake, and the better the taste. The deep-fried pancake in the shop was authentic. Both sides of the pancake were brown and crispy. It was loose and fell off easily with chopsticks. It was eaten with cucumber salad salad.
The three of them ate to their heart's content. In the hot summer, they were drenched in sweat and went back to their homes in high spirits. When they paid the bill, each of them had spent less than five yuan.
Qin Guan didn't know whether his two bad friends were dreaming or not, but he had a sweet dream. He was still thinking about it the next morning.
