Su Qingluan was stunned when he heard what the proprietress of the wine shop said: "More money?"
"Yes!" The restaurant owner looked at Su Qingluan condescendingly with a pair of narrow eyes: "After your business got better, you came to my place to wash dishes more often, and you used more water, so naturally you have to raise price!"
Su Qingluan's face turned cold: "Madam boss, what you said is inappropriate, isn't it? My family pays you ten cents a day, not for water - after all, although the well is near your restaurant, it is not owned by your family. No? That ten cents is just for convenience, and by the way, you can help take care of those dishes and chopsticks."
To put it bluntly, it is just convenient to spend money, but it is not necessary.
Seeing that the landlady's eyes were a little vague, Su Qingluan calmed down and said, "Actually, our Su family is doing business here, and what we sell are neighborhood snacks. Isn't it possible to attract customers to come here? This way, the landlady's family The wine shop business will be better, right?"
With such small traders, there is no big effect in talking about affection and reasoning. Only interests can move their hearts, so Su Qingqing didn't talk too much. He first belittled the other party's necessity, and then put forward their common interests. .
The landlady's heart skipped a beat: Just now she was only envious of the Su family's prosperous business, but she had forgotten the joint effects of this prosperity.
After figuring out the connection between interests, she immediately changed from the mean look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, to the amiable one with narrowed eyes: "Hey, girl from the Su family, I just thought too narrowly for a moment, and we are also facing each other. When we are doing business, we are just neighbors, so how can we talk about price increases, right?"
Su Qingluan didn't care about his attitude towards the arrogant Hou Gong in front of him, nor did he care about the "excess" expenditure of 300 yuan per month. In her opinion, if these three hundred coins could make the proprietress of the wine shop pay more attention to the tableware she brought to wash, it would save her a lot of energy.
Su Qingluan has also figured out one thing in the past few days, which is the source of coal. Su Qingluan did not look for a place that concentrated on buying and selling coal. After all, the other party's business was very large and the price was almost monopolized, making it difficult to negotiate.
So Su Qingluan simply chose an old man in his fifties who picked coal to sell every morning - which reminded her of the "Charcoal Seller" in the textbook - as her "supplier" ".
She wanted lower coal prices, while the old man urgently needed a customer who could buy coal from him stably in the long term, so the two hit it off. Su Qingluan made an agreement with the old man that after the market opened every day, the old man would go to Su's house to set up a stall. The place is waiting for the Su family to come, the Su family pays, and the old man gives the charcoal, so that the old man does not have to carry charcoal around on the street every day.
But on rainy days, since coal cannot get wet, the two parties agreed that if it rained before the market opened that day, the old man would not sell charcoal.
For example, today, it started to rain in the middle of the night, and it had not cleared up when I went out to the stall in the morning. I saw that I would not be able to go out to the stall today.
"Sister, aren't you going to go out to the stall today?" Su Xueyan glanced at the stew pot placed in the corner with some worry, "Will these drains be broken?"
Su Qingluan knelt down and pinched her sister's nose: "Don't worry, this stewed soup has a lot of seasonings added, it won't go bad so easily." Not to mention a day or two, if it keeps boiling, some of the stewed soup will It can last for decades without breaking.
The little girl felt relieved and giggled, but Su Xuanhe couldn't laugh anymore.
As a "student", he still had to go to Master Zhou's place even if it was a rainy day - not to mention it wasn't pouring rain.
Originally, Su Xuanhe was grumbling and trying to pretend to be sick in bed, but when Mr. Yang glared at him with a broom, he was immediately frightened and showed his true colors. He got dressed, had breakfast, and prepared to go out.
"I'll go see him off." Su Guangfu put on a hat for his son and himself, and held down Yang who was about to go out. "You've been suffering from low back pain recently, so you'd better move less."
Yang smiled at Su Guangfu and said, "Then I'll go back to the house and lie down for a while."
Su Qingluan stood aside and said that there could be more of this kind of dog food.
It was another rainy day without having to go out to the stall, and after breakfast, Su Qingluan planned to stay in the room and read a book to pass the time, while watching her little sister practice calligraphy.
However, as it approached noon, the sky cleared up.
Su Qingluan went out and looked at the sky - there were almost no clouds, and the blue seemed to be gradually becoming transparent. It was difficult to see that less than half an hour ago, this sky was still covered with clouds.
Su Qingluan came close to her sister and looked at her: "Hey, you have already written two large-character articles? That's great! Do you want to go outside to play with sister?"
What’s not to love about kids about going out and playing? When Su Xueyan heard her sister's words, she seemed to have wilted after practicing calligraphy for a long time, and immediately became like a watered seedling, and instantly became strong!
"Sister, sister, where are we going?"
Su Qingluan thought for a while: "The rain has just stopped, why don't we go to the back mountain to collect mushrooms?"
The little girl immediately became as excited as a bird released from the cage.
Su Qingluan said hello to her parents and took her sister to the back mountain.
They said they were going to the back mountain. In fact, Su Qingluan didn't take Su Xueyan to the inside of Taixiang Mountain. Instead, he picked up mushrooms in the surrounding areas and picked some wild flowers to make a garland for the little girl. It was still on her head. superior.
Su Xueyan was not angry at being "disgraced" by her sister like this, she just laughed happily.
On the way to pick mushrooms, I met Tian Xing'er and Liu'er who also came to pick mushrooms.
Su Qingluan greeted the two of them and introduced his little sister to his two friends.
"Hey, this is your sister, she's so cute!" Looking at Su Xueyan who looked like a snow jade dumpling, Myolie Tian's already smart almond eyes shone.
Liu'er also nodded: "When I see your sister, I want to rub her face!" She said and wanted to start, but she looked at her hands that were covered with mud from picking mushrooms, and then looked at Su Xueyan's white and tender hands. His little face finally controlled his "Lushan Claws".
The little girl may have discovered that the two weird sisters were "plotting evil" against her, so she said obediently: "Wash your hands clean later, and you can touch my head..."
She was obviously a little girl less than four years old, but she acted so seriously that the other three girls burst into laughter.
After laughing enough, Su Qingluan looked at Tian Xing'er and Liu'er: "By the way, why are you two the only ones picking mushrooms here today?"
Even if Que'er is to be married, aren't there two others?
"Are they two?" Tian Xing'er shook her head, "They don't like the moisture on rainy days, so naturally they won't come out!"
