Overall, Nian Jianan is quite satisfied with this business.
But Zheng Bajin didn't think so. He glanced at the people who had left and said, "It's getting late. You watch here while I go get some food and come back."
"It's better that you keep watch. I'll go buy it. It's enough if you can eat enough. There's no need to waste too much." Nian Jian'an said with a smile.
Of course he knew that prices in this city were high. A bowl of rice noodles cost one yuan, and he still didn't have enough to eat.
Zheng Bajin smiled and said: "It's okay, but you can't lose yourself as a human being. You must eat enough. Your body is the most important, and you can make money slowly."
As he said that, he handed over a ten-dollar bill.
Nian Jian'an didn't answer it and said with a smile: "No, I have it in my hand."
"Here, how can we spend your money when we come out together?" Zheng Bajin refused and forced the money into his father-in-law's hand.
Nian Jian'an went there and after searching for a long time, he found a rice noodle restaurant and ordered a bowl of rice noodles and two bowls of white rice.
It was almost cold when I brought it back.
Zheng Bajin couldn't care less about this. Thinking about his previous life, before prosperity, he rode a bicycle to deliver goods, had to eat early and late, be full and hungry, and sometimes had to sleep in the open air.
This is already good, at least it has vegetables and rice. The two of them put the rice noodles on the carriage, and each of them started eating with a bowl of white rice.
After eating, you have to send the bowl back and get your deposit back.
It was afternoon in a blink of an eye, and the municipal people started to go to work.
At this time, an unexpected surprise followed. Someone said that he tasted the ham and it was not bad. Give him a whole one.
Zheng Bajin happily agreed and weighed one for the other party.
Some people say that it is not bad, but you have to wait until after get off work anyway, so it is difficult to get it now.
After hearing this, Zheng Bajin suggested, "You can make a reservation. You can just settle the payment when the time comes to pick up the goods."
The man smiled and said, "Am I still worried that I can't buy it? These days, as long as you have money, you can't buy any kind of goods. Besides, don't you have half a car? I don't believe it. How many hours can you know? Sold out?"
Not always. Zheng Bajin murmured in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he nodded in agreement.
However, four or five were sold at once, which made Nian Jianan extremely happy and began to calculate how much he had earned.
Zheng Bajin is very calm. This is just the beginning, and the big money is yet to come.
Seeing people going up to the office building, Zheng Bajin breathed a sigh of relief, sat in the car to rest, smoked a cigarette, took a few puffs, and blew out a few smoke rings.
The old man buying bones walked over leisurely, and Zheng Bajin was busy handing over cigarettes.
The other party didn't answer, but smiled and said, "I don't smoke, so don't be too polite, young man. By the way, your ham is really good, but don't sell it here again!"
Zheng Bajin was stunned: "..."
Nian Jianan was shocked: "???"
Are the good times coming to an end so soon?
"There is a facade behind the building. It belongs to the municipal government. It is vacant now. You can go there and sell it first!" The old man said seriously, "Such a good product must be given a brand."
Nian Jianan breathed a sigh of relief.
Zheng Bajin was overjoyed and said: "Thank you for taking care of me! It's really great. I don't know how to thank you."
But I was muttering in my heart, this person seems to be the top leader of the municipal government, by the way, if I remember correctly, this person's surname is Yang.
In the memory of his previous life, this man was a good official! As expected, he is a good person who likes to do practical things for the people.
"Let's do this. Don't say thank you for now. Let's go look at the house together. If you like it, you can settle on it. Then I will have someone bring the key to you." Yang Lao said.
"Okay, okay, thank you so much." Zheng Bajin looked at Mr. Yang and said, "Please get in the car, leader."
"No, we'll be there soon, just a few steps away." As he said that, Mr. Yang personally led the way.
Zheng Bajin followed hurriedly and turned around to wink at Nian Jianan, telling him to stay where he was and guard the car, mainly the ham in the car.
Of course, no one dares to make any decisions here, but it is always good to be careful to avoid causing more trouble.
Not far from the back entrance of the municipal government, there is a house that looks ten meters wide from the outside. If it is used as a retail store, it should be enough.
Zheng Bajin almost laughed out loud. There was such a good thing, so naturally it was best to borrow it first and get started.
"How about it, is it okay?"
"Okay, but it seems a little deserted in front of this door. There aren't usually many people, right?"
"Young man, as the saying goes, the aroma of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley. As long as you have good products, are you afraid that you won't be able to sell them? What's more, this store doesn't require your rent." Mr. Yang said amiably.
Zheng Bajin was a little surprised, but he didn't dare to be happy. He looked at him and said, "Then, what are Mr. Yang's conditions?"
"It's not a condition, but I think your ham must have a good brand name. It's best to use the word Shang Qiucheng."
Zheng Bajin's eyes lit up. What a coincidence. He had this intention. However, he didn't say anything. Instead, he smiled and said, "Then please ask Mr. Yang to give it a name."
"Okay, let's call him Qiucheng Old Ham!"
It is best to use the word "成", and then add the word "qiu", which means smoke in the local area.
However, everyone has given the store to him for free, so he can't help but give him face, not to mention, the name is not bad.
After the matter was settled, Yang Lao took him back to the municipal gate and asked him to wait. After a while, a staff member took the key and handed it to Zheng Bajin.
Zheng Bajin thanked him repeatedly and took the remaining ham to the back door.
When he opened the house, he discovered that the house was longer than he thought, covering more than a hundred square meters.
If you use money to rent, it will cost you at least a thousand yuan a year.
If it were placed in the 21st century in the previous life, it would not be less than 100,000 yuan.
This time, a lot of expenses were saved.
Nian Jian'an, however, has not yet come to his senses. It wasn't until Zheng Bajin went to buy a broom that he dared to believe it was true and he was busy cleaning.
The two of them worked for two hours before cleaning the inside. Zheng Bajin used local materials, flattened some broken wooden poles that were originally placed, and placed the ham on top to avoid moisture.
At this time, the municipal government was off work, and the man who said he would wait until after get off work to buy ham was a little dumbfounded when he saw Zheng Bajin and his wife missing in front of the empty building.
Is there really such an easy deal? Several hundred kilograms of ham were sold out in less than a day?
Surprised, he watched Mr. Yang go downstairs from a distance, followed by Secretary Zhao.
Secretary Zhao is beautiful and very shrewd in his work. He can be regarded as Mr. Yang's right-hand man.
The man hurriedly came forward to say hello, forced a smile, and said: "Hello, Mr. Yang, hello Secretary Zhao!"
Yang Lao couldn't remember the name of this person, but he still smiled and said amiably: "Hello."
Secretary Zhao nodded to him and showed a shallow smile.
"That's right, let's go take a look!" The man was about to retreat when he suddenly heard Yang Lao's instructions and nodded hurriedly.
He didn't know what Yang Lao was going to see, so naturally he didn't dare to ask. Instead, he followed carefully behind Yang Lao and Secretary Zhao.
The three of them walked around the wall to the back door, and saw the shop at a glance. The door was open, and the walking tractor was parked next to it.
At this time, Zheng Bajin and Nian Jianan had already cleaned the inside and put all the hams in.
Yang Lao looked up and saw a sign made of wooden boards on the door. Sure enough, it was called "Qiucheng Old Ham". He couldn't help but nodded and said softly: "This guy does things quite neatly. Now, we need such efficient people to lead everyone on the road to wealth."
"The matter that Mr. Yang personally took care of is such an opportunity for him, and it is also a blessing for him. He will naturally cherish it." Secretary Zhao smiled sweetly.
The man was dumbfounded. What was the background of this ham seller?
"Section Chief Zhang, what do you think of the name of this sign?" Secretary Zhao said and gave him a quick look.
Seeing Mr. Yang's eyes looking over, Section Chief Zhang understood the truth instantly and hurriedly said: "Very good, very good, but this word..."
This word was too formal and seemed a bit rigid. It was certainly not Yang Lao's word, so he didn't know how to say it, so he deliberately left it in suspense.
If he knew that this character was written by a primary school graduate like Zheng Bajin, how would he feel?
"The handwriting is not bad. It's already good for a young person to write with such writing skills." Mr. Yang did not think about inscribing the words himself, and said calmly, "The most important thing is that everyone can understand such words. The key is that the product tastes authentic.”
"I've tasted it myself, and it's pretty good. Are you Section Chief Zhang? What do you think?"
Section Chief Zhang was a little dumbfounded. He hadn't tasted it yet, but he immediately changed his role and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang said yes, it must be very good."
You've already said it, how dare I say something bad?
Zheng Bajin heard the conversation outside and had already come out to greet him. Seeing that it was Mr. Yang, he couldn't help but be startled. He was busy greeting him with a smile and a very familiar look. If his hands were not dirty now, he would have been there by now. He hugged Yang Lao's thigh and couldn't bear to let go.
Yang Lao just smiled flatly: "Look, what else is missing? Open this shop as soon as possible."
"It's not bad, just go to the counter and buy it immediately." Zheng Bajin said hurriedly.
At this time, the lion must not open his mouth and try not to trouble others if it can be solved by oneself.
"Okay, this is Secretary Zhao. If you have any difficulties, you can go to her directly." Mr. Yang nodded, once again satisfied with Zheng Bajin's approach.
Zheng Bajin smiled, glanced at Secretary Zhao, generously asked for his number, and said a few words of thanks for the care.
Secretary Zhao is also a down-to-earth and generous person. At first glance, she looks like a woman who has seen the world. She wrote down her office phone number with a pen. People's private numbers will definitely not be given to others easily.
As for Zheng Bajin, he doesn't have a phone, so he won't need it for the time being, and people won't take the initiative to come to him.
