Lu Yuzhu also chatted happily with everyone.

"With my bicycle, I can do business around the primary school on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and I can go to the vegetable market on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays to pick up more business.

After all, we are craftsmen, so we must not let our skills go to waste!"

After hearing her explanation, everyone looked at Xu Guihua with some blame.

"It's all because of this woman. She makes me pay more than ten yuan a month. I don't want to go out and do more business."

"It's so hot, it's not easy for Comrade Xiao Lu either."

The next day, when she arrived at the town's vegetable market, Lu Yuzhu discovered two barber shops in the surrounding residential area, and she immediately gave up the idea.

You can't take away other people's jobs just to make a few bucks.

Over time, there will definitely be conflicts.

A young man selling popsicles happened to pass by on a shabby bicycle.

Lu Yuzhu bought a red bean popsicle.

It's the hottest time of the year right now, so the cold drink business must be good.

When I permed someone's hair again, I would ask people in the town intentionally or unintentionally.

"I saw a guy selling popsicles yesterday. Is there a place in town that sells them wholesale?"

The eldest sister sat upright. It was her first time to perm her hair.

"No, it's in the suburbs of the county, but not far from our town."

After getting some useful information, Lu Yuzhu finished perming someone's hair at noon and rode her Phoenix bicycle back to the compound.

Xu Guihua hurried over to pay two dollars, which she earned in the compound.

Yuzhu put it in her pocket and said, "Go back and keep a record of the accounts. Remember to record the number of days you received business. You will be paid on the first of every month."

Xu Guihua went back happily.

After all, she is in the second grade, so she can still recognize these numbers. Just mark them on the calendar, haha.

From now on, I only need to start work in the morning, and then I can go home to cook, eat, put away the curlers, and wash my hair, and I'm done.

There's no easier gig than this.

Early the next morning, Lu Yuzhu rode her bike to the suburbs.

Today is Thursday, so I don’t have to go to elementary school to get my hair permed.

When we arrived at the Volkswagen Cold Drinks Company, we saw bicycles carrying wooden boxes of the same color coming in one after another to purchase goods.

Lu Yuzhu put her bicycle on the rack and walked forward. "Comrade, I also want to wholesale some popsicles and sell them."

The worker, wearing a long blue coat with cotton bandages tied around his legs, said, "Pay a 20 yuan deposit to hold the box!"

Lu Yuzhu immediately took out 20 yuan.

"I don't charge money here, go over there and find the accountant to register!"

A middle-aged man registered me and casually carried over a large box. On the back of the box, there were two big characters painted in red regular script - popsicle.

Another piece of wood was thrown out.

Yuzhu took a look and found some insulating cotton cloth inside the box.

Immediately lay one end underneath.

The chef asked, "How much are you buying? 20 or 30 popsicles?"

Lu Yuzhu, "Fill it up for me!"

The other party was stunned. "You're only selling on your first day. Take 1 popsicles first, 20 red bean popsicles and 10 mung bean popsicles! 10 is already a lot."

Yuzhu insisted, "Fill it up and I'll pay now!"

Middle-aged accountant, "Give her 30 popsicles, and 20 of the other items."

Then he looked at Lu Yuzhu and said, "This is your first time selling today. If you can't sell all the goods, please return them before 1:4 pm. We won't accept late returns. This is the rule."

"Just remember, even if it melts, we still recognize your capital! However, this discount will be gone in three days, and you have to eat the unsold ones yourself."

Lu Yuzhu vowed, "I won't ask you to return the goods!"

I have the space and can't dissolve it all, so of course I'll get more.

Without saying anything more, the accountant lowered his head to calculate the accounts, "The wholesale price of popsicles is 3 cents each, and the retail price is 5 cents.

The wholesale price of red bean popsicles is 5 cents each, and the retail price is 8 cents.

The wholesale price of mung bean popsicles is 5 cents each, and the retail price is also 8 cents.

A total of 2 yuan! "

Lu Yuzhu took out three dollars and the accountant gave her ten cents in change.

"Also, all sales must be at a uniform price! If discovered otherwise, the 20 yuan deposit will be confiscated! Serious offenses will be handed over to the Revolutionary Committee for handling!"

Lu Yuzhu listened carefully.

The staff over there had already packed all his popsicles, carried them to the back seat of the car, and tied them up with ropes.

Seeing the little girl, he couldn't help but take care of her again, "First ask what kind you want to buy. After you receive the money, open the popsicle box. As soon as you take out the popsicles, quickly cover them with cotton cloth and close the box.

This way the food won’t melt until the afternoon!”

Yuzhu wrote it down carefully, "Thank you, old comrade!"

It's just a kind reminder.

By the time you take it out, others have changed the variety. If you open the lid once on the left and once on the right, the liquid inside will not be completely melted!

When she came out, it was only ten o'clock in the morning. Lu Yuzhu directly threw the popsicles inside into the space.

I went to town and bought a straw hat, tied the elastic band at the bottom to my chin, and bought an oversized blue long-sleeved shirt to cover it over.

This not only blocks the sun, but also makes it difficult for people who know her to recognize her.

I had lunch in the space in advance, and as soon as I came out, I rode a Phoenix brand bicycle, holding the handlebars with one hand and knocking on the wooden stick on the side of the box with the other hand.

"Popsicles! Popsicles, red bean popsicles, mung bean popsicles!"

It was almost 11 o'clock, when business was booming. Lu Yuzhu went from door to door, and finally a child came out with coins.

"Buy popsicles!"

Lu Yuzhu hurriedly got off the car and said, "Little boy, popsicles are 5 cents, and mung bean popsicles and red bean popsicles are both 8 cents. Which one do you want?"

The child looked at the 5 cents in his hand and said, "I want to buy a popsicle!"

Lu Yuzhu took the money, took out a popsicle, and quickly closed the wooden box. "Here."

"Popsicle, popsicle!" The bike rode forward again.

Lu Yuzhu was walking around the downtown area while counting the money. If she sold everything today, she could earn 1 yuan.

That’s 54 yuan a month. Excluding rainy days, even if it’s 50 yuan, it’s still higher than a worker’s salary.

The premise is that you have to sell out.

You have to sell it!

Lu Yuzhu has the space to guarantee that it will not melt away. She is confident that she can sell more than two yuan a day.

It's stable to earn 60 yuan a month.

Early summer has just passed, and the really hot summer has just begun. There are still more than two months to go. It is still possible to earn more than 100 yuan by selling cold drinks.

Perming hair can make a steady income. When it is good, you can make more than ten yuan a day, sometimes only one or two yuan. On rainy days, you will have no income.

I can earn more than 150 yuan a month. After deducting the principal of 22 yuan, there is 130 yuan left. After deducting Mrs. Jiang’s salary, there is more than 110 yuan left.

The perm is still the best deal.

Don't show off your abilities.

When the Chinese New Year is approaching, business is booming. Barber shops are busy counting money until their hands are numb, and serving customers until their hands cramp. Which barber shop doesn’t feel that they don’t have enough hands?

It’s a good thing that Sister Jiang came to help!

By the end of the year, Lin Hui will be on vacation, so it would be best to get her over to help.

It happened that the farm machinery factory in town had just finished working, so Lu Yuzhu quickly rode her bike over and said, "Popsicles, popsicles for sale!"

People heard the little girl's clear and pleasant voice, and some began to come over to treat her and pay the bill. She sold 6 sticks at a time.

By the time everyone in the factory got off work, Lu Yuzhu had sold a total of 15 sticks here.

I secretly noted the location and decided to come when they started work in the afternoon, as business would be better at that time.

I rode forward and arrived at the People's Commune. Lu Yuzhu was standing outside, knocking hard, "Popsicle, popsicle!"

Someone came out and said, "Give me three red bean popsicles, little girl, this car is great!"

Lu Yuzhu took the money in one hand and started to pick up the popsicles.

"This is the dowry my father gave me. I want to make back the money during the summer."

The staff inside gave a thumbs-up and said, "What a ambitious young lady!"

It was just after three o'clock in the afternoon, and after running around two factories, Yuzhu's popsicles had already sold out.

If you get a perm tomorrow, it won’t be affected at all.

I happened to get my hair permed in the morning, so I could buy popsicles at noon.

I rode the bike back happily, took a bath in the spiritual spring, and felt full of energy again.

That night, Jianguo hugged her slender waist and asked, "Are you hiding something from me again and going out to do some business?"

Lu Yuzhu turned away guiltily, "How could I? I just got a hair perm. It won't affect you."

Zhou Jianguo looked at me with some resentment, "I know you know what you're doing, but it's quite lonely not seeing you at lunch."

The rough big hands grabbed his wife's pigtails and twisted them around.

"How about I talk to Captain Jiang tomorrow and ask his wife to stop interfering!"
