Chapter 91 Taking Advantage
After the second exam in the afternoon, Xu Dan handed in the paper in advance and handed in another answer sheet to the invigilator according to the rules.
"Teacher, I understand that you can't take it out of the examination room. Don't forget to give it to me when you make a copy."
The invigilator smiled at her back after she left, "Hey, little guy, that's interesting."
Xu Dan turned in her papers so early, naturally because she wanted to move to a dormitory. She felt that she could no longer stay in the same dormitory as Xu Hongxia.
Although Xu Hongxia showed her goodwill in every way, she did not accept this kind of goodwill that cheated her and expected her to settle the past.
Whoever has lost his temper will just think that the previous blind friendship has been wiped out this time.
When Xu Dan took people back to move things, several girls from other schools in the dormitory had already returned.
I was a little curious when I saw Xu Dan moving things, but didn't ask anything.
It was impossible to say that they were out of breath. They had already secretly prepared for Xu Hongxia to educate her when she came back today.
Xu Dan asked her classmates to help move her things away without leaving a single word. She believed that Xu Hongxia was not stupid. What she did was not anger or a cold war, but a complete breakup.
When someone wanted to affect her future, it was definitely not a matter of getting angry. She didn't curse her eighteen generations of ancestors because she was kind-hearted.
Xu Dan didn't pay too much attention to the next thing about Xu Hongxia.
After watching six games, Xu Dan went to the invigilator and asked for the answers from a few days ago.
The invigilator looked at her strangely, "The answer to this question is gone?"
"Well, no, this is my classmate's strength, so there's no need."
I see.
The invigilator did not embarrass her and took out a file bag from the drawer and handed it to her, "Here, five copies. Teacher does what he says and will never lie to children. Classmate Xu Dan, let's see you in thunder!"
He is actually a teacher from Lei Ming No. 1 Middle School, and he has the temperament of a child.
Xu Danchong said "Thank you, teacher" to the invigilator, and went to present 5 answers to Xu Meiyu.
Xu Meiyu read the answers with a sad face, and said with a grimace: "There is little hope of getting into the normal school, but I still want to apply. It's hard to find a job now. If I can get into the normal school, I will be assigned directly. I still want to apply."
Everyone else fell silent.
Xu Meiyu's family conditions are indeed not as good as theirs, but she started planning a job for herself early on. It is true that a child from a poor family should be the head of the family early.
As for Xu Dan, Xu Dan has nothing to worry about. With her grades and hard work, will she still be worried about not being able to get into college? When the time comes, she will have her choice of a good university, and her job will be more stable than anyone else's.
Xu Dan felt a sense of reluctance in her heart when she looked at these classmates who were about to part ways as soon as they had a good relationship with her. She cheered up and said, "Anyway, the exams are over. We have wine today and will get drunk today. Why don't we celebrate?"
"Yeah!"
Everyone immediately started rummaging through their bags and took out all the fried melon seeds and peanut snacks they had brought at home.
Xu Dan also took out a few cans of Jianlibao that she had taken out of the space and put into her bag early in the morning.
Originally, she wanted to get some other things, but after searching for all the things in the space at this time, only Jianlibao was left.
When they saw Xu Dan bringing out Jianlibao, several students' eyes widened.
"Xu Dan, are you a rich man? This thing can't cost two yuan and a half a can?"
Xu Dan smiled and shook his head, "I don't know either. My third uncle bought it for me. Brother Dapeng and I both said it would cheer up our spirits, so I gritted my teeth and bought it for us."
Xu Meiyu quickly refused, "Then we can't drink it. Your family bought it for you. It's so expensive. What's going to happen if we drink it?"
"Then I can't eat your melon seeds and peanuts?"
Li Ping pulled Xu Meiyu to sit down, "Of course you can eat, you can eat whatever you want, you're welcome."
Other students also quickly said: "That's right, let's all come together, Xu Meiyu, are you stingy again?"
"Oh, how can I be stingy? Eat, eat, eat. Anyway, I won't take advantage of you once or twice."
Chapter 92 Why did she bully you?
On the way the bus took them back, Xu Hongxia wanted to talk to Xu Dan several times, but several other girls used the topic to pull Xu Dan away.
In this way, Xu Dan chatted and laughed with Xu Meiyu and others along the way back to school, ignoring Xu Hongxia.
Back at school, Li Ting took the lead and rushed towards them, "Two college bullies, how did you do in the exam?"
As soon as Xu Hongxia arrived at the organization first, she started talking about how hot the weather was, why she was late for an exam, and how Xu Dan went to sleep with others and ignored her.
The more she spoke, the weirder Li Ting looked at her. When she finished speaking, Li Ting just said "oh" and ran away alone with Xu Dan.
Li Ting is a smart person who doesn't know what kind of things she is doing. When she was alone with Xu Dan, she opened her mouth and asked, "Why did she bully you?"
"how do you know?"
"I don't know anything. I'm telling you, I'm pretty good at judging people. Xu Hongxia looks like she doesn't care about anything except working hard. In fact, she's the most jealous. We'll have to go to the same school as her in the future. You stay away from her." Keep some."
Xu Dan nodded and gave her two thumbs up, "You are still the best. We won't play with her in the future."
"Then tell me, why did she bully you?" Li Ting felt so relieved by the praise that she asked again.
Bullying her friends is bullying her.
Xu Dan simply told what Xu Hongxia had done without adding too much fuel, but Li Ting was still very angry.
She rolled up her sleeves and put them on her waist. When she saw Xu Peng still chatting and laughing with Xu Hongxia, she became even more angry and rushed over to grab Xu Peng's ears.
"Xu Peng, you are a stick. Your sister was bullied so much that she almost failed the exam, and you are still talking and laughing with others. Do you lack brains?"
"Oh, it hurts, it hurts, be gentle, be gentle~" Xu Peng didn't dare to struggle with Li Ting's hand, but kept begging for mercy and letting Li Ting be gentler.
It has long been normal for Li Ting to bully Xu Peng. Others watched them fight and no one cared.
Unexpectedly, Xu Hongxia felt that she had a pretty good relationship with them, so she walked over with a smile and tried to persuade them, "What are you doing now? Let go, Xu Peng's ears are almost torn off by you."
Li Ting not only refused to listen to the advice, but instead choked her, "Some people should have some shame. Stop meddling in other people's affairs and reflect more on the shameless things you have done. Bah!"
After she choked, she released her hand from Xu Peng's ear and pushed him towards Xu Dan.
The other students looked at it in confusion. These people were wearing a pair of pants before the high school entrance examination. Why did they fall out after the test?
Xu Meiyu, Li Ping and others, who knew the whole story, looked at each other, started to find their friends, and talked about what happened during the high school entrance examination.
They were already close to Xu Dan, and they were bribed by her in various ways during the high school entrance examination, so naturally their efforts in helping her to promote her would not be low.
Suddenly there were exclamations all around.
"Oh my god, is she actually this kind of person?!"
"You can't wake up like that. I'm afraid she's worse than a dead pig, right?"
"Not to mention, if Xu Dan fails in the exam, she will be the best person in our exam this year. The word "snake-hearted" is very suitable for her."
……
Xu Hongxia listened to the discussions around her and saw that there was no one around her, without any friends. She secretly clenched her fists and bit her lips.
She already explained that she didn't mean it, so why don't you believe her? Why do these people insist on clinging to it?
If you don't want to play with her, don't play with her. The path of a strong person is destined to be lonely. She wants to see whether a person like Xu Dan who makes friends in various ways can have the last laugh or a person like her who concentrates on studying can succeed. !
Chapter 93 Someone misses her
On the day we returned to school, everyone gathered together to fill in their application forms, chatted for a while, and then went back to their homes.
The next time I come back, it will be when the admission notice comes out.
Xu Dan’s first, second, and third choices were all from Leiming No. 1 Middle School. She had no intention of going to another school.
In the entire class, except for Xu Meiyu, whose first choice was Leiming Normal College and her second choice was Leiming No. 1 Middle School, the other students basically had their first choice to be Leiming No. 1 Middle School.
Xu Peng was more realistic. He didn't apply for Thunder No. 1 at all, but directly chose Thunder No. 3 as his first choice.
No. 3 Middle School is a veritable high school in Leiming City. You can get into it no matter what your test scores are, just to go to high school.
When I got home, Aunt Yinhua was already standing at the door, craning her neck.
"But I'm back. Let's go in and rest for a while. I'll pick up Qiangqiang and come back for dinner together."
Xu Dan jumped off his bicycle and called to someone with a smile on his face, "Third Aunt, we are back, I will go with you."
She is very happy. After this summer vacation, she will be a high school student and one step closer to the life she wants.
Holding Aunt Yinhua's arm, Xu Dan hummed a tune and walked with her to Xingye Primary School.
"Danya, you are so happy today, did you do well in the exam?"
Xu Dan seldom praised Haikou, but when she saw Aunt Yinhua smiling so brightly because of her, she relaxed and said, "Yes, the first place didn't run away!"
"Hahaha, that's great. Then we'll wait for Danya to come back with the top pick for us."
"Hey hey hey~"
Their conversation was listened to by a man not far away.
Where no one saw him, he showed a big smile, his white teeth shining brightly in the sun.
After a long time, after everyone left, he said to himself, "Girl, if you get the top score in the exam this time, I will entrust the principal of the high school to give you a high scholarship when you are admitted. If you can also be in high school, If you come first in the exam every time, I will give you a sky-high scholarship!"
After saying that, he looked firmly at the direction Xu Dan walked in.
Although many people say that boys have the upper hand in high school, and no matter how hard a girl works, she cannot pass the test of a boy who works a little harder.
But he had a hunch that this girl would never let him down.
Now, all we have to do is wait for the results.
Love born too early is always easy to die. If the feeling in his heart can last until this girl grows up and he is still so determined, he will express his feelings to her.
People will always change, who can guarantee that they will only love one person for the rest of their lives?
At the school gate, Xu Dan, who had just picked up Xu Qiang from get out of class with Aunt Yinhua, suddenly sneezed loudly.
"Aunt, one sneeze means someone is missing you, two sneezes means someone is scolding you, and three sneezes means you have a cold! Hey, who is thinking about aunt?"
Xu Qiang raised his head and looked at Xu Dan with big questioning eyes.
He has learned a lot of things in preschool recently. Before, he didn't know there was such a thing as sneezing, nor did he know that boys would have babies if they kissed girls.
Recently, he gave Huahua all his candies and snacks brought at home. Huahua’s belly has grown a lot. Soon, his baby will be born, so happy!
Seeing that he was serious about asking, Xu Dan deliberately teased him, "Why did Qiangqiang ask that? Auntie thought that Qiangqiang was thinking about auntie in his mind, so auntie sneezed."
She pretended to be sad, and Xu Qiang was fooled.
He raised his hand at a loss, patted Xu Dan's butt, and then comforted her, "Auntie, I missed you at that time, but you didn't sneeze when I usually miss you, so I thought it was someone else. That’s it.”
After consoling him, he gritted his teeth and gave Xu Dan the only candy that Huahua had saved, "Auntie, eat it. This is what I saved with great effort."
Chapter 94 I haven’t eaten sweets for many days
"Wow, are we so generous? Are you willing to give your aunt the only piece of candy every day?"
Xu Qiang closed his eyes and nodded vigorously, "I'm willing to give it up, I haven't eaten candy for many days, I can hold it back, aunt, you can eat it!"
How many days? Aunt Yinghua was puzzled, "Qiangqiang, didn't Third Grandma give you a candy every day? There were also some snacks, but you didn't eat them? Someone in school snatched your snacks?"
Such an understanding is amazing, Xu Qiang is the youngest, and he can't stand it if other children snatch his food. Aunt Yinhua and Xu Dan are full of worries, and even think about school violence.
"Of course not."
Xu Qiang shook his head and patted Aunt Yinhua's leg, "Third Grandma, what are you thinking about? I just saved my snacks for my child's mother to eat. I have good news for you. Huahua has become pregnant recently. Sir, my child will be able to come out soon!"
This is really good news. Aunt Yinhua and Xu Dan looked at each other and tried their best not to laugh.
Xu Dan returned the candy to Xu Qiang, "Qiangqiang, you can eat it. My aunt is now an adult and doesn't like candy anymore. From now on, my aunt will allow you to bring two candies every day, one for you and one for your child's mother." ,OK?"
"Wow! Auntie, you are simply the best aunt in the world! From now on, Qiangqiang can also have candy every day!"
Xu Qiang jumped up and down happily.
Although it was just a lie that you would get pregnant if you kissed her, seeing these two children maintaining this lie so innocently made their faces full of aunty smiles.
When the two children become sensible in the future, I don’t know if they will still remember the innocent and beautiful memories at this time.
I just feel sorry for Huahua, a good little girl who has gained a lot of weight because Xu Qiang feeds snacks every day. It will definitely not be easy to lose weight in the future...
After taking Xu Qiang back home, Aunt Yinhua went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes, while Xu Dan took Xu Qiang to wash his hands.
At the dinner table, Xu Qiang danced and talked about what he had learned in school, looking very excited.
At the end, he added, "Auntie, Principal Yan told me to wait until the beginning of next semester to take the exam at his place. If I pass the exam, I will be admitted to the first grade."
"That's a good thing. Does Qiangqiang know what the test will be?"
Xu Qiang nodded confidently, "Third Grandma, I think I can go to the second grade. The books in the first grade are very simple and I can understand them all."
The childish words made Xu Dan's eyes light up. She touched Xu Qiang's head and said, "Qiangqiang, how about we go directly to the second grade?"
"But...but in that case, I can't be with the mother of my child..." Xu Qiang's face was filled with confusion.
"Pfft..." Xu Peng, who was picking up his second bowl of rice, spit out all the rice in one mouthful, and a few more came out of his nostrils. The white flowers were very happy.
After he sprayed the rice, he coughed violently several times, as if his lungs were about to come out. Aunt Yinhua quickly poured him a glass of boiled water.
After finally recovering, Xu Peng looked at Aunt Yinhua, who was calm on the left, and then at Xu Dan, who was calm on the right, and said dullly, "The child's... mother?"
"Well, he is our strong little partner."
Aunt Yinhua wiped Xu Qiang's mouth and told him that they would help him handle these things. Xu Qiang then went to take a lunch break with peace of mind.
"Danya, do you want to take a nap too?"
Faced with Xu Peng's questioning eyes, Xu Dan smiled at him, but had no intention of helping him answer the question. He answered Aunt Yinhua and went to accompany Xu Qiang to take a nap.
Let's relax today. Starting tomorrow, she will discuss with Xu Peng how to make money, not just for herself.
Xu Peng is now completely useless in his studies. Unless he learns a trade in the future, he will have no choice but to stay at home and farm. The only way out is to go into business.
Although she only knows six things about buying and selling things, she has the concept of future generations. At the same time, she also feels that Xu Peng is very talented.
Chapter 95 Brothers settle accounts clearly
To use a later saying, life is already at a low point, are you still afraid of getting worse?
The more things you have, the less you dare to venture into them, because you are afraid that if you fail, you will lose everything you originally owned.
But you are already barefoot, so why worry about your feet being broken? If you give it a try, you might be able to buy a pair of shoes.
After sending Xu Qiang to school the next day, Xu Dan gently woke Xu Peng up with a basin of cold water.
"Oh, Danya, what are you doing!" Xu Peng jumped up from the bamboo mat, shaking the cold water from his body.
Xu Dan laughed non-stop next to him. After laughing, he informed him, "Brother Dapeng, change your clothes quickly and come out. We have to discuss important matters."
What big thing could happen? Isn’t it just about making money?
When Xu Peng heard the word "big event", he immediately changed his clothes and went out to look for Xu Dan.
During this semester, he made a lot of money relying on Xu Dan's box of trinkets. Now, as long as Xu Dan mentions "big things", he will be energetic.
In the past, he could only be handsome, but from now on, he will be handsome and have a lot of money!
After leaving the room, Xu Peng asked Xu Dan, "Um, Danya, we don't want to take Li Ting with us?"
Xu Dan looked at him in surprise.
"Her home is so far away, how can it be a summer vacation and let her come to our house every day?" The implication is that what we are doing this time is just for a summer vacation.
Xu Peng was even more excited now. It seemed like he could still make a lot of money during the summer vacation alone, according to Xu Dan.
He sat upright at the table, "Danya, tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Xu Dan now not only wants him to help make money, but also wants to cultivate his own earning ability.
Before talking about her plan, she asked Xu Peng, "Brother Dapeng, what do you think is the best selling thing during the summer vacation?"
"Of course it's ice!" Xu Peng came back immediately, and then his eyes lit up, "Danya, do we want to sell ice?"
Not bad. He has a good sense of business. Xu Dan nodded and told Xu Peng everything he had learned a few days ago.
"Ordinary sugar water ice costs 10 cents a piece, porridge ice costs 20 cents a piece, and cream ice costs 30 cents a piece. We sell these three types."
Xu Peng was not stupid and asked immediately, "What about the purchase price?"
"It depends on how much we take. If we take more, the price will be lower. We have to consider whether we can sell it. Also, in such hot weather, how long will it take for it to melt? If it melts, we will lose everything."
"We can start with the same ten pieces, and the wholesale store will give you a 20% discount. Sugar water ice is 8 cents, porridge ice is 16 cents, and cream ice is 24 cents."
When Xu Peng heard what she said, he nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's take this many first. If the sales are good, we will take more."
What he said was correct, but there was one more thing. Xu Dan asked him, "Brother Dapeng, when is our early rice harvest?"
"It will be about half a month after the summer vacation. I understand. We can go to the field to sell it at that time. Danya, you are really good at it!"
He burst into laughter as he spoke, and his excitement also infected Xu Dan, "If we do well and have a regular source of customers, we will be able to do this for a long time during the summer vacation."
"Yeah, we can do it in August. Then we can fill up the boxes every day and earn a lot of money a day. It's great!"
That's right, but this time, Xu Dan didn't plan to give Xu Peng pure profits, she just spread it out.
"Brother Dapeng, although this idea is mine, we have to do the business together and bear it together."
Xu Peng patted his chest grandly, "No problem. Now that I have money, I can still afford the cost of a few yuan or more. We can split it 50/50 by then."
"Well, that's no problem. I'll come up with the idea, and you'll come up with the bike. Each of us will contribute half of the cost, and we'll also share half of the money earned."
The brothers are still clear about settling the scores.
If you don't want to have any financial troubles in the future, you should make it clear from the beginning.
The fourth update ends on March 18~
Chapter 96: The scumbag is not worthy of talking to him
On the first day of selling ice, Xu Dan and Xu Peng received 30 bottles of sugar-water ice, which the boss gave them at a 30% discount.
It cost 7 cents a piece, earning 3 cents, and 30 bottles earned 90 cents. Xu Peng suddenly became a little unhappy after calculating the account along the way.
Xu Dan asked him doubtfully, "Brother Dapeng, what are you thinking about? Why do you feel unhappy?"
He pushed the bicycle while kicking the stones on the road, and sighed leisurely, "Danya, we make 9 cents a day selling ice. We can only earn 54 yuan in a 60-day summer vacation. If we divide it evenly, we can earn 54 yuan per day." 27 yuan per person, hey, when will I be able to afford a wife?"
Good guy, Xu Shuxin and Aunt Yinhua found out that he wanted to marry a wife when he was only 14 years old. They didn’t know whether to cry or laugh.
"Okay, Brother Dapeng, if you stay at home and do nothing, you won't get a penny. Hurry up. If we sell out in the morning and can pick it up in the afternoon, won't we make a lot more in one day?"
This is true. If they are sold out twice, it will cost 108 yuan a month, which is 54 yuan per person, which seems to be quite a lot.
After doing this calculation, he had enough motivation to push the bicycle.
"Danya, where should we go to sell first?"
Xu Dan thought for a while. It was already half past ten when they came back from the town to pick up the ice. At this time, the sun was starting to rise, and there was probably no one in the field.
She immediately made the decision, "Go to the elementary school. It's almost recess. Let's wait at the school gate for the students to come out to buy."
The iron gates of elementary schools are closed before school, but the gaps in the iron gates are large. There are also many aunts who are restless at home, carrying baskets and bringing home-made snacks to the school gate to sell.
There are vegetables wrapped in oil paper for one cent, a bag of fried shrimp crackers for two cents, and candied haws on a stick for five cents.
I know Xu Dan, the old man who makes candied haws, and he is the younger brother of Second Grandma. Like Second Grandma, he likes children who study well.
He basically knows all the children in Xingye Primary School, and any one of them can speak clearly. He knows exactly which child has good grades and which child has zero marks in the exam.
When he meets children with good academic performance who come to buy food, he will chat with them for a few words, and when he is happy, he will give them candied haws to eat.
Children with good grades in school like to chat with him.
Xu Dan got to know him for this reason, and later found out that he was the second grandma’s younger brother, and everyone called him Grandpa Ga.
Grandpa Ga recognized Xu Dan from a distance and raised his hand to greet her, "Danya, is it Danya?"
"It's me, Grandpa Ga. Are you still selling candied haws on a stick here?" Xu Dan also greeted enthusiastically. Grandpa Ga is a very admirable old man.
Hearing that Xu Dan still remembered him, Grandpa Ga's face blossomed into a smile. He happily took a bunch of candied haws and handed it to Xu Dan, "Dan Ya, take it and eat it. I heard your second grandma say, are you still the first in the exam?"
"It's about the exam." Xu Dan nodded, took the candied haws, opened the wrapper and nibbled one, "It's about the exam. Apart from being number one, I don't know where I will be."
These words were a bit arrogant, but to the ears of the old man, they were very pleasant to the ears. Grandpa Ga was amused by her and laughed loudly. .”
Naturally, he also saw Xu Peng, but a scumbag like Xu Peng was worth wasting his expression to say hello? He was a scumbag in elementary school, and he would definitely not get better in junior high school, so he had no hope.
Xu Peng naturally saw that Grandpa Ga didn't want to pay attention to him. He retracted his hand that wanted to say hello in embarrassment, touched his nose uncomfortably, and listened to their conversation.
Grandpa Ga saw them pushing a cart with a big foam box behind them, so he asked Xu Dan, "Dan Ya, what are you doing here?"
"Grandpa, we just finished the high school entrance examination and haven't been going to school for more than two months, so we thought of doing some summer work and went to the town to pick up some ice to sell."
As she spoke, she took out a piece of sugar water ice from the incubator and handed it to Grandpa Ga, "Try it, it's really sweet."
Chapter 97 Boss Xu
Grandpa Ga happily took it, with a chrysanthemum smile on his face.
After taking it, he took out another dime from the small satchel around his waist and handed it to Xu Dan, "Grandpa Ga knows that it's not cheap for you to receive this, so you can't eat it for free, so take it."
Xu Dan licked the candied haws and accepted the money with a smile. This is the love of the elders for the younger ones. The elders give it and cannot refuse it.
Not long after, the sound of "ding ding ding" sounded, another class was over, and the students swarmed towards the school gate.
He ran to the door and stretched out his little hand from the crack of the door, "Grandma Lanhua, give me a bag of pickles and more taro! Hey, hey, don't squeeze, the money is going to fall!"
Grandma Lanhua, who was standing by the vegetable basket, neatly wrapped the vegetables in oil paper, took the money with one hand and handed the vegetables to the boy with the other.
A few aunts and grandmothers who bought snacks made a lot of money and were smiling from ear to ear. However, Xu Dan, Xu Peng and Grandpa Ga’s candied haws, which were here for the first time, were rarely paid attention to.
Grandpa Ga’s candied haws are too expensive. They are all made of sugar. Although the hawthorns are cheap and rotten, once they are wrapped in sugar they become valuable.
Xu Dan and Xu Qiang came here for the first time, so naturally there was no business. Xu Dan rolled his eyes and started to shout, "Cold, cool, sweet sugar water ice. It only costs ten cents a pop. It's twice as good to eat one." ~"
As soon as she shouted, some students looked over and saw the sugar water ice that Grandpa Ga was eating. Many students licked their lips.
It’s such a sunny day, how comfortable it is to have sugar water ice.
Immediately, some students started shouting, "Give me a candy bar!"
"I want two sticks, I can eat two sticks!"
For a time, Xu Dan kept collecting money, and Xu Peng sent out ice cream one by one. In just one class break, all 29 ice cubes were sold.
The children who bought it happily licked the ice and walked to the classroom, shouting how happy they were while eating, making the children next to them who didn't buy it extremely envious.
After saying goodbye to Grandpa Ga, Xu Dan and Xu Peng walked back. Xu Peng couldn't come to his senses for a long time and asked naa, "Did you make 90 cents?"
In this era when two yuan can buy a pound of meat, you can earn 9 cents in a short time, which shows how much it shocked this boy.
"That's right." Xu Dan nodded, "In this way, we made 9 cents, but it's just half for the two of us."
At this time, who cares about one person and half? Xu Peng only knows that selling ice has a future!
He shouted happily, "We'll go in the afternoon!"
"Okay, let's take a rest at home in the afternoon. The first period of school in the afternoon has a long break, so we will sell it at that time."
Seeing that Xu Peng was no longer as sad as before, Xu Dan was in a very good mood.
She glanced at Xu Peng's happy face and suggested, "If we can make two yuan today, why don't we buy a pound of meat and make braised pork?"
The purpose of making money is to spend it. For the first time, you can use the money you earn from selling your own goods to buy a good meal. It is definitely a wise use of money.
Only by making good money can you eat well and use well. Xu Dan must work hard to shape this idea in Xu Peng. The future big boss is just around the corner!
At this time, Xu Peng, who was dazzled by money, no longer considered what Xu Dan said.
Whatever she says is what she says.
"Buy! Let's buy it! Let my parents and Qiangqiang taste the money we earned for the first time with our own efforts. It will definitely taste better than the usual braised pork."
Braised pork is nothing. When he makes money, he will buy a car and a suit. Who doesn't call him "big boss" when they see him? Then he will be Boss Xu, hahaha!
Chapter 98 Big Mouth
When picking up ice in the afternoon, in order to save costs, Xu Peng directly picked up 50 bottles of sugar water ice.
50 sticks of the same type of ice are received at a 60% discount, which means that each one costs 6 cents and costs a total of three yuan.
In the afternoon, there were still several aunts sitting separately in the shade at the school gate.
Some were sitting under the trees, and some were sitting under the projection of the gate, but no matter where they sat, they were still hot and sweating.
Xu Dan took out the iced water in the insulator and took a sip. It felt so cool and refreshing.
Several aunts stared at her and licked their lips involuntarily.
"Danya, are you picking up sugar water and ice again?"
"Yes, Auntie, I have nothing to do during the summer vacation anyway, so I can sell some ice to help the children cool off. I can make a lot of money with one ice cream, and I can earn a lot of hard work going back and forth."
After Xu Dan finished drinking, he handed the water to Xu Peng. Xu Peng didn't drink it and silently put the water back into the incubator. He could hold on for a while and save it for Danya to drink later when she gets thirsty.
When the aunts saw Xu Peng's actions, they all stared at the incubator without blinking. Finally, one aunt couldn't help it anymore.
"Danya, give Auntie a piece of sugar water ice to try."
Isn’t this business coming?
Xu Dan quickly took out a bottle of sugar water ice and gave it to the aunt, took the ten cents from her hand, and asked her, "Aunt, do you want to put your water in to freeze it? When you take it out later, it will be iced." It’s cool and delicious.”
"That's a good feeling." Who would sit under the hot sun without bringing water? The aunt didn't hesitate and gave her water to Xu Dan directly.
Others want to be like her, but they are still reluctant to eat ice cream for only a dime.
After staying for a while, except for Aunt Lanhua, the other aunts came to buy ice to eat, and they all put water into their incubators as they wished.
Aunt Lanhua, who was always reluctant to spend money, glanced at the other aunts who were happily eating ice cream, and muttered, "With this money, why don't you buy more pencils for your grandson? You spend it all on yourself. How can your grandson have any future?" .”
The voice was quite loud, but no one paid attention to her. Seeing that no one answered, Aunt Lanhua couldn't sit still.
Yi said to Xu Dan angrily: "Dan Ya, put Auntie's water in and chill it."
Xu Dan looked left and right, and asked Xu Peng doubtfully, "Brother Dapeng, did you hear anything? Why do I seem to hear someone calling my name?"
"You heard wrong." Xu Peng turned over a million words, "It's just a dog barking, why is it calling your name."
The other aunts couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Xu Peng offended Aunt Lanhua without hesitation. Aunt Lanhua was really annoying.
Every day, people from the east to the west talk non-stop, but not a single word of truth comes out of their mouths.
If the daughter of a family works outside and earns a few dollars and comes back, she will be rumored to have come back from the red light district and make money by spreading her legs.
If the daughter-in-law's legs are inconvenient and her legs are bumped, she will say that she stole someone outside.
She saw someone's child going on a blind date, and within a day, everyone knew that the child of that family was married to someone else.
Aunt Lanhua's big mouth not only did not bring her good popularity, but instead made her reputation worse and worse.
But he is such a person, and his cooking skills are so good that people who taste delicious food can't wait to lick their fingers again and again.
Before Xu Dan and Xu Peng came here to sell ice, her business had always been the best.
In fact, Xu Peng doesn't care about those big-mouthed things.
If Aunt Lanhua spends 10 cents to buy ice water like other aunts, or if she says something nice and angrily, Xu Peng will take the initiative to help her get ice water.
But she didn't care if she didn't buy it, and she bossed Xu Danyi around as if Xu Dan was her maid.
This made Xu Qiang very angry. Why should someone who was pampered by his family be bullied by others?
Chapter 99: Three dollars, okay?
Seeing them teaming up to laugh at her, Aunt Lanhua glanced at the brother and sister with a sinister look and said nothing.
Seeing her like this, Xu Dan became defensive. The more a dog bites, the less likely it is to bark. She secretly bit Xu Peng's ears and asked Xu Peng to be careful about Aunt Lanhua.
But when people are determined to do bad things, how can they guard against it?
Just when Xu Dan and Xu Peng's ice sales became popular again, Aunt Lanhua pretended to be accidentally tripped and fell towards Xu Peng's bicycle.
Xu Peng was shocked by his actions that were harmful to others and not beneficial to himself. He immediately went to stop her, but how could a skinny young man like him stop Aunt Orchid, who weighed more than 160 kilograms.
He watched helplessly as she pushed the incubator to the ground.
The sugar water ice inside and other aunt's water bottles were scattered on the floor.
Seeing that her plan was successful, Aunt Lanhua raised a proud smile and pretended to apologize, "Oh, I'm sorry, Danya, Dapeng, it was Auntie who was too careless. You won't be able to sell it today. Go back quickly." "
Everyone saw that it was Aunt Lanhua who caused the evil, but this evil made Xu Dan and Xu Peng suffer the consequences of being dumb.
With tears in her eyes, Xu Dan picked up the kettles that fell on the ground one by one and returned them to the other aunts.
An aunt comforted her, "It's okay. It just fell a little. It didn't fall out. It's not dirty. It's too hot today. Give me another one."
As he spoke, he stuffed a dime into Xu Dan's hand.
Xu Dan accepted it gratefully, picked one that wasn't too badly broken and gave it to her.
Others thought the same thing. It was smashed but not dirty, and the taste was still the same. On such a hot day, who wouldn’t want to eat some ice to relieve the heat?
The students inside the gate shouted.
"Sister Xu Dan, I want it too, I want it too, give me one, I'm almost dying of heat."
"There's me, there's me, Aunt Xu Dan, give it to me first, I've been waiting in line for a long time."
Xu Dan and Xu Peng were busy again, and even after the box fell, it was sold out earlier than expected.
After selling the ice, Xu Peng took out the handkerchief in his pocket and wiped the bicycle carefully. This bicycle had been with him for three years, and he still cherished it very much.
After wiping, Xu Peng waved his hand, "Danya, get in the car, I will take you to buy meat!"
Together they made a total of two yuan and ninety cents today, enough to buy almost a pound and a half of meat.
Work has started well today, and Xu Dan is also happy, shouting, "Buy a pound, buy a pound, we will use the money we earn to buy meat!"
The cheerful voice made Aunt Lanhua look even more hateful.
Just wait, she has a way to deal with these two unlucky children, they are still young to fight with her!
Xu Dan and Xu Peng, who had no idea they were in trouble, went straight to the butcher shop.
Xu Peng stood in front of the butcher's shop and shouted arrogantly, "Boss, weigh the pork belly for two yuan and nine cents for me!"
Danya told him on the way here just now, to buy them all! Eat enough! Hahaha!
The boss saw Xu Qiang buying so much at once, and wondered what was happening to Secretary Xu’s family today, buying so much meat?
Usually, everyone buys them by a few taels, rarely more than a kilogram.
But when the business comes, he will definitely not push it out. He raises the knife with his neat hand and calls the hook, "Dapeng, can you do it with three yuan?"
"No, no, boss, I said I wanted two dollars and nine dollars, it's just two dollars and nine dollars, not a cent more."
Xu Peng quickly refused, joking, they only made two and nine yuan today, and the extra ten cents had to come from their own capital.
Chapter 100 Asking Principal Yan for privileges
In the evening, Xu Peng ate the meat bought with the money he earned for the first time, and he felt that it was more fragrant than the usual braised pork.
The next day without Xu Dan's urging, the wall clock in the living room rang six times, and Xu Peng got up from the bed with a grunt, "Danya, let's go and pick up the ice."
Xu Dan rubbed his sleepy eyes and said in a soft voice, "Brother Dapeng, the sun hasn't come out yet and it's not hot. Who can buy the ice? It will melt easily after being left for a long time."
It seems so.
Xu Peng has a habit of being unable to fall asleep again after waking up. Even when he lies in bed, he always opens his eyes in a daze.
Finally, when Aunt Yinhua called for dinner, Xu Peng jumped out of bed and sat down on the dining table.
"Brother Dapeng, we will send Qiangqiang to school later."
When Xu Peng heard this, the sun was already out, and he didn't go to buy the goods yet. He felt a little anxious, "Danya, send Qiangqiang to my mother, let's go do something big."
Now his mind is full of "big things, big things" and he can't even tolerate the second thing in his mind.
Xu Dan sighed, "Brother Dapeng, don't worry, just listen to me. I have an idea and I won't lose money."
"Okay then, I'll listen to you."
Xu Dan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Xu Peng was someone who could listen to advice. If he was the kind of person who acted regardless of his own will, he would probably do bad things, and he would have to learn a lesson before he could learn to be good.
To learn a lesson, you have to pay tuition. What is the tuition? rmb!
After dinner, Xu Dan and Xu Peng sent Xu Qiang to school.
After sending him to class, Xu Dan did not leave directly, but took Xu Peng to Principal Yan's office.
Xu Dan had already figured out that Principal Yan had a class at nine o'clock this morning. According to his previous habits, he would definitely come to school after seven o'clock to prepare the class again.
So he must be in the office now!
She came to see Principal Yan today for no other reason than to make money.
After knocking on the door of the principal's office, Principal Yan was very happy to see Xu Dan.
"Xu Dan, why did you come to see me today? Is the high school entrance examination over? How was your exam?"
Xu Dan said confidently: "It's not bad, Principal Yan. I think it's okay to pass the No. 1 high school exam."
"Okay, okay, that's good, that's good. What's the matter with you today?" Principal Yan smiled like a chrysanthemum on his kind face. His favorite thing was to see the promising students from his school.
Xu Dan took advantage of his happiness to express his thoughts.
"Principal Yan, the weather is very hot this summer. Our family Qiangqiang came home several times and said that the weather was too hot. Sitting in the classroom was a bit boring and couldn't bear it. So I picked up some ice and put it at the school gate two days ago. The sales are pretty good, and students should be in need of them."
Principal Yan has been eating salt for many years. How could he not know what her idea was? He immediately smiled and said: "It's a good idea, keep talking."
"That's what I think. Since students all like it, we can accept more and get it at a lower price. We can also make some concessions to the students and only sell the hottest ones after the third period in the morning every day. Between classes and after the first class in the afternoon.”
In fact, the weather was extremely hot this year. Principal Yan also noticed that the adults like them felt a little unbearable, let alone the children. Regarding Xu Dan's proposal, he understood that Xu Dan wanted someone who was different from the aunties selling snacks at the door. With the same rights, he was also very tempted to use the profits as a bargaining chip to enter the school.
Just imagine, on a hot summer day, it would be so comfortable to eat an ice-cold, air-conditioned popsicle.
But he still had to consider the students' acceptance, "Xu Dan, every student's family situation is different, and we can't force every student to sell popsicles. Do you understand?"
