"Hey, I'm still a regular customer."
The landlady's smile grew brighter. She turned around and lifted the curtain, waving to Zhou Yan and Tang Tang, "Come in, come in, it's hot outside, and the air conditioner is on inside."
The moment the curtain was opened, a cool breeze blew out from inside, which was really refreshing.
Zhou Yan only felt that the exhaustion from the train ride was blown away by a cool breeze.
Tangtang obviously had some thoughts. After all, along the way, there were not many air-conditioned stores.
Moreover, there is a large flow of people, so it can be said that it is very hot inside and outside.
"Zhou Yan." Tang Tang pulled Zhou Yan's sleeve.
"Come on, little girl, our family is very authentic." The landlady noticed Tang Tang's hesitation and said kindly.
"Yeah." Tang Tang nodded indifferently. After all, she was just a high school student who had just graduated. How could she withstand the enthusiasm of the landlady? Moreover, this store had air conditioning and was very cool. Thinking of this, Tang Tang was immediately attracted by The landlady half pushed and half pulled her inside.
"Young man, you are so lucky."
The landlady looked at Zhou Yan and said.
Zhou Yan smiled slightly and walked in without saying anything.
Although it is September, the temperature in Hongcheng has not dropped at all because it is inland. On the contrary, it has a tendency to rise.
Golden Autumn in September, this is the saying in the north, because it is the turn of summer and autumn. Zhou Yan once visited the north in mid-September. What impressed him the most was the red leaves covering the mountains and fields in the north, which were stirred by the wind. , countless red leaves were picked up, and the rustling sound was like the sound of nature.
But in the south, it was still hot summer. Zhou Yan remembered that during military training in college, several classmates fainted from the heat.
Now in the corridor, although there is ventilation on all sides, it is a semi-enclosed environment. When the hot air blows, it will feel stuffy.
But once inside, Zhou Yan was quickly enveloped by waves of coolness.
The vertical air conditioner was running at high power, sending out a cool breeze with a little humidity.
This doesn't save money. The reason why this store will be prosperous in the future is just the big air conditioner.
There were not many people in the store, many tables were empty, and Tang Tang was already sitting in a corner.
Although the location was remote, the air-conditioned wind was just enough to reach here. Tang Tang was sitting there with a very comfortable expression.
Zhou Yan leaned Tang Tang's large suitcase next to the dining table, and then hung his schoolbag directly on it.
"Are you thirsty?" Zhou Yan asked.
Tang Tang nodded.
"I'll get a drink."
Zhou Yan said something, and walked familiarly to the location near the kitchen. There was a translucent refrigerator, and a bottle opener hung on a rope next to the refrigerator.
There, there are carbonated drinks in glass bottles, including Fanta, Sprite and Coke.
In later generations, you may not be able to buy these bottled drinks anymore. Some fast food restaurants still sell them for two yuan and a half a bottle. After you drink them, you can recycle them to the fast food restaurant and you will get a 50 cent refund. Zhou Yan will basically go there every time he comes home late. Pack a meal from the fast food restaurant and go home.
The boss always smiled and told him, remember to bring the empty bottle back next time, and this time he will be charged fifty cents less.
However, Zhou Yan always forgets and the boss doesn't care.
Every time Zhou Yan comes over, the boss will say, "You're here."
That made Zhou Yan feel friendly. After all, you can't find this feeling in a hotel.
Zhou Yan returned to his seat with a bottle of ice-free Fanta and a bottle of iced Coke.
"Give."
Zhou Yan handed Fanta to Tang Tang.
Tang Tang didn't ask for it. He looked at the bubbles of coke in Zhou Yan's hand without blinking, "I want this."
"It's not good to drink ice."
Zhou Yan said, pushing Fanda directly in front of Tang Tang and inserting a plastic straw on it.
"I want to drink ice." Tang Tang's big eyes kept looking at the Fanta in Zhou Yan's hand and said arrogantly.
"for you."
Zhou Yan handed the Coke to Tang Tang, put the straw into the Coke bottle, and then poured Fanta directly into his mouth.
Countless bubbles burst in his mouth, and an indescribable feeling of relief filled Zhou Yan's heart.
Soon, the bottle of Fanta was empty.
Seeing that Tangtang didn't drink it, Zhou Yan asked doubtfully, "Why don't you drink it?"
"Zhou Yan, you always insisted not to allow me to drink ice." Tang Tang said.
"Then I was really stupid." Zhou Yan said.
"Why?" Tang Tang asked doubtfully.
"You're not my girlfriend, why do I care so much?" Zhou Yan said.
Tang Tang was stunned, looked at the iced Coke in his hand, stopped talking, and started to suck it in small sips.
Zhou Yan looked at Tang Tang and knew that what he said was a bit harsh.
But he didn't care too much. Just like what he said, Tang Tang was not his girlfriend, so there was no need for him to be too lenient.
"Kuanfen is here."
The voice of the landlady came, and Zhou Yan looked up and saw the landlady walking over with a large plate. On the plate, there were two bowls of wide noodles and a stack of fried beans.
"I don't have many guests today, so I just want to thank you for taking care of my business."
The lady boss put the noodles and fried beans on the table and explained with a smile.
Zhou Yan looked at the wide noodles on the table. One bowl had a lot of chili, while the other was not very spicy, and there was a pile of fried beans.
Zhou Yan remembered that every time he went out to have barbecue in college, he would always order a plate of fried beans, but after returning to Zhejiang Province, he didn't eat them for a long time.
"Thank you, auntie." Zhou Yan thanked with a smile.
"It's okay, it's okay. If you need anything, just say hello to me." The landlady smiled and waved her hand, then walked outside to greet the guests.
"Auntie can actually write 'The store has air conditioning' on a wooden board outside, which should attract some customers to come in."
Zhou Yan said again.
The landlady was stunned, "Is this useful?"
"Just try it, just in case it works."
Zhou Yan smiled.
"good."
The landlady nodded, returned to the kitchen, and took out a rectangular wooden board, which must have been removed from somewhere.
In her hand, she also held a black marker.
"Young man, my aunt doesn't know much about writing. Can you help her write?" the landlady said sheepishly.
Zhou Yan nodded, stood up, placed the wooden board on an empty table, picked up a marker, and wrote five big characters directly on it.
The store has air conditioning.
Zhou Yan's calligraphy is not very beautiful, but it is powerful.
"Thank you, young man. Auntie, I'm going to give it a try now." The proprietress smiled and walked out directly carrying the board with Zhou Yan's calligraphy on it.
"Shitou, how come your handwriting is so beautiful?"
Tang Tang didn't interrupt just now. She didn't like interrupting very much. After the boss lady left, she asked.
In her impression, Zhou Yan did not have such good calligraphy.
The writing is not very beautiful, but it is very comfortable to read.
"Practice it in private." Zhou Yan said casually and picked up the noodles.
In the company, he provides project guidance to his subordinates and is used to using black markers.
"Zhou Yan, does the method you mentioned really work?"
Tang Tang was a little curious.
After all, Zhou Yan's method was too simple and crude.
"Suofen, Suofen, we'll find out later."
