Chapter 629: Ups and downs [Second update]
Several people who came out of the village opposite walked towards Zhang Xingbang's barbecue truck without stopping, and Zhen Shuai also began to feel strange.
"Brother, how about I go take a look." Zhen Guo said.
"No need." Seeing that she and Zhen Duo looked worried, Zhen Shuai said, "Don't worry, if we can't sell it here, we will go to the county town to sell it. We can always sell it." There are more people in the county town, so we will definitely be able to sell it
. Lose. The sorrow on the faces of Zhen Guo and Zhen Duo disappeared.
"Zhen Shuai, we are here!"
He Xiaolong ran over with a large group of friends.
Zhen Guo went up to meet him, "Come on! You guys came just in time, otherwise you would have to wait in line for a long time!"
He Xiaolong chuckled and was the first in line, "I brought a dollar. I want two skewers of chicken steaks and a Fried eggs, a bunch of fried lotus roots, a bunch of fried eggplants, and a bunch of peppers, are you giving them away today?"
Zhen Shuai also laughed, "I have to give them, what do you want?"
He Xiaolong likes to eat lotus roots, "Fried lotus roots."
"No. Question." Zhen Shuai exploded skillfully.
"Business seems to be okay over there?" He Xiaolong said in a low voice when he saw that the queue on the other side was longer than here.
Zhen Shuai nodded, "Yes."
"Mengmeng, Zhenzhen, go to my house and buy it. I have everything here."
Zhen Shuai turned his head, and it turned out that Zhang Xiaoyue was also here, greeting the one who played better with her. Two girls.
Mengmeng and Zhenzhen could not refuse their friends, so they lowered their heads in embarrassment and were pulled away by Zhang Xiaoyue.
Both of them were called by He Xiaolong, but now they ran away. He Xiaolong felt very embarrassed.
"Zhen Shuai, don't worry, I'll go over and help you find out the enemy's situation later!"
Zhen Shuai smiled, "No, that's not the case."
He Xiaolong made up his mind, and after Zhen Shuai had fried it for him, he took the fried skewers and started Ran to the other side.
The other friends didn't leave. The smell of fried skewers was so fragrant that they couldn't move at all. However, they were also curious about the taste of Zhang Xiaoyue's fried skewers, and looked over there from time to time.
In less than two minutes, He Xiaolong came back.
"Zhen Shuai, no wonder there are so many people there, he sells them cheaper than you. His meat dishes are only a dime a bunch, but vegetarian dishes can be bought for three bunches for a dime. But his dishes are not delicious at all!" He Xiaolong complained.
I see.
"Have you tried his food?" Zhen Guo asked.
He Xiaolong said: "I exchanged my skewer of grilled eggplants with a guy over there. It really didn't taste good at all. What a pity for my skewer of eggplants!" No wonder he had a pity expression on his face.
Not long after, many old customers came here to line up. Some said they had tasted Zhang's food and it was not delicious. It only smelled of oil and had no fragrance. Some said that although they had never tasted it, they knew it was delicious as soon as they smelled it. Not as good as. Moreover, Zhang’s chicken chops are not authentic, they don’t have that crispy coating on the outside.
Despite this, the Zhen family's business was still greatly affected.
Zhangjia has a price advantage. Although it tastes a bit unpalatable, it is cheaper. Moreover, as long as the fried food is not fried to a crisp, it will not be so unpalatable that it is difficult to swallow. In addition, drivers passing by didn't know what was going on. Seeing that the queue at Zhang's side was longer, they thought Zhang's was more delicious, so most of them would choose Zhang's.
Zhen Guo had many ideas, "Brother, fry some chicken steaks for me."
Zhen Shuai asked her, "What are you going to do?"
Zhen Guo didn't answer, she held the chicken steaks high and stood on the road. While shouting loudly, his crisp voice was very eye-catching.
"Authentic chicken chops, fragrant and crispy! Authentic chicken chops, fragrant and crispy..." Some of the
people queuing up at Zhang's house were eating fried skewers for the first time. When they saw the chicken chops in her hand and Zhang's The explosion at home was obviously different. I probably understood what was going on, so I silently left the queue and queued up at Zhen's house. When I smelled it, I found that the fragrance here was more fragrant, and I was secretly glad.
Zhang Xingbang's daughter-in-law, Zhao Fang, always rolled her eyes at Zhen Guo when no one was paying attention.
Zhen Guo shouted even more energetically, and she really attracted a lot of customers.
Those who run long distances are rich and willing to spend money. What are you working so hard for? Isn't it just for one bite?
The friends brought by He Xiaolong thought it was fun and shouted along with Zhen Guo. It was really lively for a while. There was once again a long queue in front of the barbecue truck.
No one noticed that there was not only an extra watermelon seller not far from Zhen's stall, but also an extra herbal tea seller. Business is very good. Watermelon and herbal tea cost nothing. Even if you only earn 30 to 50 cents a day, it won't be enough in a month. It's like picking up for nothing. Both of them were having fun.
"Master, all our guests have been called away, hurry up and find a way!" Zhao Fang urged Zhang Xingbang.
Zhang Xingbang thought that his wife's fried chicken was not unpalatable, but he thought the problem still lay with the chicken steak.
"I know that the chicken steak is pure chicken, without bones, but I don't know what the outer layer is." "I'll ask someone to buy
two skewers and try them. After tasting them, I should be able to know." Zhao Fang was very happy. Confident.
Zhang Xingbang nodded.
"Okay."
Zhen Shuai didn't know anything, but even if he knew, he wouldn't care. The method of making bread crumbs is not complicated, and it would not be surprising even if someone figured it out. The key to his victory was barbecue powder.
I counted the money at night and found only thirty-two.
Zhen Guo and Zhen Duo were a little frustrated.
"It's all the Zhang family's fault!"
Zhen Shuai shook his head gently, he was still too young.
When Zhen Guo saw the Zhang family's chicken steak that was exactly the same as her own the next day, she was so angry that she almost exploded.
"How is it possible? How could they do it?"
Zhen Shuai understood everything when he saw Wu Guixiang in the crowd over there.
Zhen Duo also remembered, "Auntie must have told the Zhang family! She came to our house that day and saw the crumbs of the steamed buns made by my brother!" "
Auntie went too far!" Zhen Guo was so angry that she shed tears.
Wu Guixiang realized that Zhen Shuai and the others had seen her, and they raised their malicious faces without hesitation.
"Shuai Shuai, what are you going to do?" Shen Xingdu was a little curious when he saw that Zhen Shuai was still calm.
Zhen Guo and Zhen Duo looked at their brother expectantly, hoping that his brother could deal with the Zhang family just like he did with his aunt last time.
Zhen Shuai smiled mysteriously, "Actually, I don't need to do anything. Just read on and you will learn something." Zhen Guo and
Zhen Duo's curiosity was aroused, and they kept chasing him to ask questions, but he wouldn't say anything.
In fact, today's business has improved compared to yesterday. Some customers have eaten at both stores. After comparison, they feel that Zhen's one is more delicious, so they come back.
Another day, a third barbecue truck appeared on the side of the national highway.
This time the owner is not from Yangliuwan Village, but from Wuxiong Village, with the surname Tian.
The Zhang family sells less than 20 meters to the left of the canteen, and he sells less than 20 meters to the right of the canteen.
Like Zhang’s family, vegetables in his family also cost three skewers for a dime.
Now it was the Zhang family's turn to be furious.
At first there was just a few quarrels, but Xia Tian was already very angry, and then the two families ended up fighting for some reason. Thanks to the fact that the people who come to eat fried skewers are all from nearby villages, they basically know each other. Because someone started a fight, no major incident occurred in the end.
"Do you understand now?" Zhen Shuai tests Zhen Duo and Zhen Guo.
Zhen Guo was a little excited, "I seem to understand, brother, do you want to say, "The snipe and the clam compete with each other to get the fisherman's profit"?" "Uh... That's right."
"No..." Zhen Duo didn't know how to express it and try to organize the language, "Yes... When everyone finds out that there is something that can make money, they all run to sell such a thing, but the number of people who need such a thing is almost fixed. So, the more people who sell such a thing , on average, everyone earns less. In this case, whoever sells such things with the best quality can earn the most money." Zhen Shuai nodded in affirmation, and the old god was here, "Look Come on, this isn't the worst case scenario."
"Is there anything worse? That's such a shame." Zhen Duo's eyes widened. She is no longer worried about her own family's situation now, and is pretending to be worried about the other two families.
The next day, a fourth barbecue truck appeared on the side of the national highway.
Zhen Shuai lamented that this is the elusiveness of the market.
It all depends on which of these three families can "fight" to the end. No matter what, their family will be in an invincible position.
Two weeks later, the Zhang family and Tian family were defeated, and only the Qin family remained.
His family has temporarily gained a foothold with its good craftsmanship and low prices.
During this time, the Zhen family also accumulated many regular customers, and the business stabilized, with a daily net income of more than thirty yuan.
But Zhen Shuai was not satisfied.
The Qin family cannot stay.
This market can only be his.
The next day, Zhen Shuai Shi Shiran put a sign on the barbecue cart that said "vegetarian dishes, three skewers for one corner and meat dishes for one corner."
Although Qin Zhongyi had driven away both the Zhang family and the Tian family, his right eyelid kept twitching these days. At this moment, when he saw the sign on Zhen Shuai's barbecue truck, he finally found the reason, and a sentence came to his mind: Wolf finally come!
He never underestimated this little boss. Being able to successfully set up a stall and persevere is not an easy task in itself, but he still has a sense of luck: maybe Zhen Shuai is not as smart as he thought. However, at this moment, he realized that he had underestimated the other party after all.
"What should I do?" Qin Zhongyi's wife was as anxious as ants on a hot pot. "Lower the price again? Four skewers for a dime?" Qin Zhongyi smiled bitterly, "His food is inherently better than ours, as long as he
keeps If we lower the price, even if we give away free vegetarian dishes, we still can't beat him. Forget it."
"Just forget it?" Qin Zhongyi's wife was unwilling to accept it.
Qin Zhongyi sighed, "Let's go to the county town. Before he drives the barbecue truck into the county town, we can still make a profit." His wife was also content, "If you go to the county town, just go to the county town. As long as you can make money." The next
day
. , the guests found that only the Zhen family was left in the barbecue truck on the national highway.
They were completely unaware of the "bloody chaos" during this period, and could only sigh and give up.
However, Zhen Guo and Zhen Duo witnessed the ups and downs of four barbecue stalls with their own eyes, as if they saw the flash of swords, and were greatly touched. It turns out that a small business can also have a big knowledge.
Zhen Shuai said: "That's why I ask you to read more, listen more and think more."
Zhen Duo and Zhen Guo nodded vigorously, saying that they would definitely read, listen and think more in the future. If you do this, you should be able to become as powerful as your brother in the future, right?
Chapter 630 Next Plan [First Update]
Turn
"Xiao Shuai."
Seeing that it was Ma Xiaolian and her husband Ma Jiaming, Zhen Shuai raised a smile, "Aunt Ma and Uncle Jiaming are here, please wait a moment, I-" Ma Xiaolian waved her hand and took Ma Jiaming to walk quickly
. Walking behind the team, she said with a smile: "You are busy with your business. We have nothing to do. We just want to say hello to you. We are going to line up." Standing behind the team, Ma Xiaolian motioned to Ma Jiaming to look at the prosperous scene in front and whispered : "I'm not lying to you, right? He can definitely pay back our money."
Ma Jiaming nodded, "I don't sympathize with them. If it's ten and a half yuan, don't bother, but that's five hundred! Our family's money is also It wasn't brought by the strong wind. Forget it if Xu Xiuli doesn't come back. If she dares to come back in the future, we will ask her for money and then return the five hundred to Zhen Shuai." Ma Xiaolian looked at her man with tender eyes. Although her own men have all kinds of problems, but just being soft-hearted is enough to satisfy her. Because a soft-hearted man will not be so bad.
"I think so too. When Xu Xiuli comes back, I have to peel off a layer of her skin, just to avenge those brothers and sisters!" It was their turn, and they ordered skewers worth two yuan.
He said he wanted to take it home and eat it with the elderly and children.
Zhen Shuai couldn't help but fried two more eggs, two skewers of crayfish, two skewers of chicken steaks and two skewers of rabbit meat, and threw the seventy cents into his money bag.
"I'm treating Auntie and Uncle Jiaming to dinner."
Ma Xiaolian gave a hearty smile, "I won't be polite to you this time, but you won't be like this next time, or we won't come again. You are busy, we are leaving now, my child Still waiting."
When they walked away, Zhen Guo breathed a sigh of relief. I know that they will not ask for debt in this situation, but I always feel that I can't hold my head high when facing the creditor. It is better to pay off the debt as soon as possible. She and Zhen Duo unconsciously moved more quickly and entertained the guests with more enthusiasm.
After closing the stall and returning home in the evening, Zhen Shuai discussed with his three sisters, "Our business is now on track and it's time to make the next step." The audience in the live broadcast room was in high spirits
.
[It’s time to take the next step. Are you curious about the host’s road to becoming a millionaire? 】
【Rubbing hands together excitedly, wanting to see the anchor show off his power! ]
[Guess what the anchor will do next? 】
【Expand the scale? Or develop new industries? ]
[Looking forward to the anchor becoming a millionaire soon! 】
The three sisters raised their heads.
"What's the next plan?"
Zhen Shuai asked, "Are you satisfied with this small barbecue stall?"
"Do you mean to put up a few more?" Zhen Xiang asked.
Zhen Shuai nodded, "Tomorrow I will go to the county to inspect. This barbecue truck will be left to Zhen Duo for the time being." Zhen Duo pointed at herself, surprised
and uneasy, "Leave it to me? Can I do it?"
"Of course I can. ." Zhen Shuai looked at her with affirmative eyes, "I have seen your performance during this period, and I believe you can do it." "
Then I, I will definitely take care of it!" Zhen Duo clenched his fists, a little bit Shivering.
"Brother, did I behave badly?" Zhen Guo puffed out her cheeks, feeling a little aggrieved.
Zhen Shuai hurriedly said: "Of course your performance is also very good. You are a quick-witted child. For example, at the beginning, only you thought of shouting at the roadside with chicken chops, and no one else thought of it. But you are a little irritable occasionally, why not Zhen Duo is stable, so I let Zhen Duo take charge of the barbecue truck for the time being. What do you think?"
Zhen Guo was praised and couldn't control her smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Zhen Shuai said in her heart that this kid is really good. Fooling.
"I'm not worried about just the two of them running the stall. How about I find someone to help take care of Zhen Cheng, and I'll go too." Zhen Xiang couldn't sit still.
Zhen Shuai glanced at her and said, "Sister, you can take care of the family affairs with peace of mind. I have already thought about it. I will ask the village chief's aunt or sister-in-law for help. I will hire her and give her money to work." "Why
? "Zhen Xiang was very unhappy, "Shuai Shuai, do you have a problem with me? You would rather let an outsider help than let me go." "Sister, wasn't
this agreed from the beginning?" Zhen Shuai didn't expect it. She had so much resentment hidden in her heart, "Besides, I have other motives for inviting the village chief's family." "
What's the motive?" Zhen Xiang's face was expressionless.
Zhen Duo and Zhen Guo were afraid that they would quarrel, so they looked nervously at their eldest sister and then at their brother.
Zhen Shuai said slowly: "Have you not noticed that our popularity in the village is not very good? In addition, our grandparents, uncles and aunts who are supposed to be the closest to us ignore us. If anything happens in the future, we will not even There is no one to rely on. Take the simplest thing, for example, if the house at home is broken down and needs to be repaired or someone is sick and needs to be sent to the hospital, there are adults in other families. Just shout in the village and there will be a large group of people to help. What about us? In the eyes of others, we are just a few children. Who will take us seriously? That’s why I feel it is necessary to have a good relationship with the village chief’s family.” Zhen Xiang pinched the corners of her clothes uneasily, “Okay
. , I understand..."
Zhen Shuai looked at Zhen Guo and Zhen Duo again, "And you two, don't give me blind words when you have money. Usually, the adults in the village are sweeter when they meet them, and they are more enthusiastic when they meet their friends. Some. Occasionally, you can treat your friends to eat fried skewers, but you have to use your own pocket money. Maintaining a good relationship with the villagers will only benefit us, not harm. Do you know?" The audience sighed, the anchor is the head of the family
. Well done, basically everything that should be considered has been taken into consideration.
Zhen Guo and Zhen Duo both nodded.
"You know, we don't have to worry about it. We will call for help when we meet uncles and aunts in the village." "
Last time I met Aunt Chunhua when she came back from the vegetable garden, I helped her carry a basket."
They knew that their family was weak and weak. People have the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and will subconsciously make choices that are beneficial to themselves. But after Zhen Shuai clarified his words, they felt even more profoundly.
Zhen Shuai said that the root cause of this is that one day he will leave in the future, and the key is that they can stand up on their own. But he didn't realize that his words not only caused the three sisters of the Zhen family to grow up rapidly, but also inadvertently deepened their hatred for their mother, Xu Xiuli. If it hadn't been for her abandonment, how could they have ended up in such a miserable state today?
In the dead of night, the three sisters secretly cried again.
Zhen Shuai had no idea about this. His sleep quality was very good and he fell asleep within seconds of going to bed. The boy's mind was not that delicate. When he got up the next day, he didn't notice that the eyes of the three of them were a little swollen, so he took Shen Xingdu to the village chief's house again.
Everyone from the village chief's family was there, and they were all surprised when they heard his purpose. I knew the barbecue cart business was good, but I didn’t expect it to be so good that I would need to ask for help.
"No problem, I can go, isn't it just fried skewers? Isn't it trivial for us ladies who have been busy in the kitchen to learn how to fry skewers?" The village chief's wife was overjoyed. There is the word "xi" in her name, and because she loves to laugh, people in the village, whether they are ordinary people or juniors, are used to calling her Aunt Xi.
Sun Xiaolan, the village chief's daughter-in-law and Hou Qingfeng's mother, also said: "I can do it too! Mom, you are busy from morning to night. You are already tired enough. How can I keep you busy at night? Let me go." Aunt Xi
glanced at her with a smile on her face and said, "Please do more for me so I won't be tired." Zhen Shuai didn't want to get involved in the fight between mother-in-law and
daughter-in-law, so he stood up with Shen Xingdu in his arms.
"Uncle Village Chief, what's the deal? Two yuan a day, one day at a time, and one day at a time. We'll start work today. If everything goes well, we should be able to keep doing it. We're still waiting for dinner at home, so let's go first." They said
. As soon as she left, Hou Mingyao glared at Aunt Xi.
"I'm not afraid that outsiders will see the joke."
Father-in-law usually has difficulty communicating with his daughter-in-law, so he can only talk about Aunt Xi.
But Sun Xiaolan knew that this was also about her. Still, she wanted to go for it. People in their thirties don't have much pocket money in their hands. It's rare to have such a good opportunity to have a class in the village. If you don't seize it this time, you don't know when it will be next time.
Coming out of the village chief's house, Zhen Shuai ran quickly, fearing that Aunt Xi and Sister-in-law Sun would catch him and ask him to choose someone.
Shen Xingdu looked at his scared look, his eyes bright. My little lover always seems to be fearless, but there are also things he is afraid of.
"Brother Dudu, are you laughing at me?" Zhen Shuai was sensitively aware of the gaze in his arms, and deliberately raised the person high, "Be careful and throw you out!" Shen Xingdu was as still as the wind, and saw in the alley
No one was there, so he said, "You laugh at how cute you are."
"You're not as cute as you, so you're really not afraid that I'll throw you out?" Zhen Shuai made a throwing motion.
Governor Shen Xing looked at him steadily, as if to say, you can't bear it.
"Okay, I really can't bear to throw it away." Zhen Shuai put the person down and held him in circles, "I'm going to make you faint, are you afraid?" After a few turns, Shen Xingdu didn't faint
. I fainted.
"Ouch... I'm so dizzy, so dizzy..."
He quickly supported the wall and closed his eyes.
Silly.
Shen Xingdu hugged his legs and chuckled.
The audience shouted, "It's so sweet, I'll forget it."
[Commander, marshal, you have caused great harm to us. Since I started watching your live broadcast, other men can no longer look at you. 】
【Suffering from the same problem as upstairs, the anchor and Brother Shen are unpardonable! 】
【I suggest that the anchor and Brother Shen be sentenced to life-long imprisonment of love and never leave! ]
[ Seconded! Seconded! 】
A man strode around the corner carrying a hoe. Seeing Zhen Shuai and Shen Xingdu, he was stunned for a moment and stopped.
"Dudu."
Zhen Shuai raised his head alertly and immediately picked up Shen Xingdu.
This move made the audience laugh again, and they guessed the identity of the visitor. This is probably Brother Shen's current father. How worried the anchor is that people will snatch Brother Shen away, look at how tightly he hugs him.
"Uncle Shen, good morning. Have you just come back from the fields?"
"Yes..." Shen Xingguo smiled awkwardly. He couldn't help but look at Shen Xingdu and found that he was whiter and fatter. His clothes and shoes The colors are bright and they are obviously new. They are clean and beautiful. They don't look like people from the village at all, but more like children from the city.
"Dad." Shen Xingdu still called out.
"Hey!" Shen Xingguo happily agreed. He fumbled in his pocket for a long time, as if he wanted to give him some money, but he couldn't find anything. His expression became even more embarrassing, "Dudu, you, follow your brother Zhen Shuai. Pretty good?"
