The modern fortune-telling history of a small shopkeeper

Near the middle of July, the report cards of the junior high school entrance examination for the third grade of the major schools were released.

"Show me now, show me soon."

At this time, No. 120 Middle School in the town also received the report card from above.Teacher Wang, the head teacher of Class 118 of the third grade, squeezed over to look at the list with everyone, and saw the name at the top at a glance, which was "Qiao Minglang" in big characters. Then look at the report card at the back, Math 114, Chinese 2, English [-], science subjects are full marks, and the president of liberal arts did not deduct [-] points in total, and the total score dropped the No.[-] of their school by a large margin.

This child usually has very good grades in school, but he did not expect to get such good grades in the senior high school entrance examination this time.

Teacher Wang slapped his thigh, laughed and said, "I just guessed, this kid must be the No.1 in our school." If he can get the No.1 in their school, he can basically be the No.1 in their town up.

"Ms. Wang, this Qiao Minglang in your class is more than No. 1 in our school. I have received the latest news that he is the No. 1 in our city!" At this time, Director Zhang of their third year said .

"Director Zhang, is what you said true?" Wang Xin's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it at first.Seeing Director Zhang nodding, Teacher Wang couldn't control the surprise and smile on his face, he laughed and said: "Haha, that's great, I've already seen it, that child is not a treasure, haha, I didn’t expect him to give me the first place in the city in the exam.”

"Mr. Wang, congratulations."

"congratulations."

There are three top classes in the junior high school of their school, class one, class two, and class three are all top classes, and the students with the best grades in the school are in these three classes.

Seeing the number one in the whole school and the number one in the city in class one, the teachers in other classes in the junior high school were all jealous of such a student in Wang Xin's class, and there would definitely be a lot of bonuses at that time.

Everyone secretly thought in their hearts, how could they not be so lucky to be able to teach such a student!

The leaders of their age are very happy that their school can be ranked No. [-] in the city. The reputation of their school will become bigger and bigger, attracting more good students to study in their school, and they will be able to promote their school It must be a great thing for their school to increase the rate even higher.

At this time, the boy didn't know that their high school entrance examination results had come out, and he was taking his big brother to look at the stalls in the vegetable market, looking for a good place to do business.

It just so happened that a stall was vacant at the side of the vegetable market in the past two days. He had asked someone, and the original stall owner was no longer selling here, so Qiao Minglang wanted to rent this stall.Today he brought his big cousin here just to tell him about this matter, "I want to rent this stall to sell things."

After selling things in the town for a period of time, he has already explored the surrounding area and knows some of the rules here.There are many stalls in the vegetable market on their side, but if you want to sell things here, you have to pay a stall fee, so many vendors set up stalls outside in order to save this money.

But to set up a stall outside, like them, you have to pay a few cents a day for cleaning. Many people are reluctant to pay the cleaning fee of this few cents. Before leaving, just clean up the place where you put things for sale. In this way No one will force them to give money, so many people will not give.

But if you want to sell things in the vegetable market, booth fees and cleaning fees are essential, and the management will be stricter.

"It's not a good idea to set up a stall outside. Why do you want to come here?" Qiao Mingshan followed him to sell things for a few days, and knew a little about the things here. He felt that they were setting up a stall outside. It's pretty good, but it's not worthwhile to come here to ask for a booth and have to pay.

"It's fine to put it outside. But here, I'm thinking of setting up a noodle stall here, and we sell noodles here." In business, you have to give up to get something. It's not bad for them to set up a stall outside. It's sunny Fortunately, if it was raining, it would be difficult for them to find a place to shelter from the rain, and they would have to worry about things getting wet.

If they set up a stall here, they don't have to worry about whether it's sunny or rainy outside, and they can do business here with peace of mind.

Qiao Minglang briefly explained his thoughts to the big hall brother, "At that time, let's make pasta here, and leave a small space over there for things." In this way, they only need to pay a share of the booth fee, and return Don't hinder them from making pasta and selling things here.

Now they sell more things every day than at the beginning, and there are also a lot of fish heads and fish bones left every day. Everyone will get tired of eating fish head soup every day. Why don’t they boil these unnecessary bones and fish bones? Soup, the boiled soup can be used as the soup base of noodles. This kind of noodle soup is sweeter than boiled water.

Fish heads can also be sold separately. There are always people who like to chew fish heads, so that there is no waste and you can make money.

At that time, their fish balls and shrimp balls can be added to it for sale. As long as their food is well-made, there is no need to worry about no one coming to eat it.In this way, as long as their business is good, they will make more meatballs in the future and sell more things, which means they can earn more money.

After listening to his cousin's words, Qiao Mingshan had to admit that his little cousin's brain was better than his. He nodded and said, "I think it's feasible."

"Let's go back and discuss this matter with my father and fifth uncle before making a decision. My father and fifth uncle should both agree." As long as it is a profitable business, he feels that no one in his family will object.

"Okay, let's discuss it when we go back."

Ever since he had this idea in his heart, Qiao Minglang never mentioned it to anyone, until today, he only mentioned it to this big cousin.The reason why he didn't bring other cousins ​​over was because he felt that this first cousin was more stable, and he trusted this first cousin more.

Now they are a few partners in business, and this matter still needs to go back and discuss with other people before making a decision.

The two of them strolled around, and there were vacant stalls in the market, but compared to the one outside, the outside stall must be better.

Fearing that someone would rent out the stall before them, the two cousins ​​went to the management office of the vegetable market to register, paid a month's rent, and decided to rent the stall.Compared with renting a shop outside, it is much cheaper to rent a stall in the vegetable market, so in comparison, it is more cost-effective to rent a stall in the vegetable market.

Seeing the eldest son and the younger nephew leave for a while and come back with a smile, Uncle Qiao asked a little curiously: "So happy, did any good things happen to you?"

"Haha, there is indeed a good thing. Minglang mentioned something to me just now. When we go back, we will tell you about it, Dad." Qiao Mingshan didn't say anything good. There are too many people here, and they are here If you discuss it, people around you will listen to it.

"Oh?" Uncle Qiao looked at his son and nephew with mysterious expressions, why don't you tell them? "Can't you say it now?"

But thinking about it, this place is outside, so we can discuss it after we get home.

"Brother, what is a good thing, you can tell me secretly first." Qiao Mingyong's curiosity was aroused, and he moved to his brother's side to ask.Qiao Mingshan glanced at his younger brother with a smile, and said, "We'll talk about it when we get home."

"elder brother--"

Qiao Mingshan ignored the younger brother.

Seeing that his brother refused to say anything, Qiao Mingyong went to pester his little cousin again, knowing that they had something to tell him but didn't tell him, it was like a cat was scratching his heart, "Minglang, tell me."

"We'll talk about it when we go home." Qiao Minglang didn't tell his little cousin, turned around, and turned his back to his little cousin.This little cousin is really annoying, he thinks this little cousin is not a few years older than their little Baoer.

The third sister Qiao and the fourth brother Qiao also looked at their brother curiously. Seeing that their brother refused to speak, the two children did not ask.Didn't the big cousin just say that, I'll tell them when I get home.

"Qiao Mingyong, look at yourself, you are not as good as Xiaofen and Mingcheng." Qiao Mingshan taunted his younger brother.Qiao Mingyong saw that the two younger cousins ​​were honest and didn't ask questions. Such a comparison, it really seemed that he was a child, so he immediately shut up and didn't ask any questions, angrily ignoring him elder brother.

Uncle Qiao kept on selling his tofu.

Seeing the children playing around, Uncle Qiao couldn't help showing a smile on his face.

When the things were sold out, they packed up the stall and went home.

On the way back, Qiao Mingshan briefly mentioned to his father what the little cousin said to him today.Hearing his cousin talking about this with his uncle, Qiao Minglang added a few words appropriately to let his uncle understand what was going on.

"Well, what you said is good. When we go back, let's discuss it." Uncle Qiao thinks that this business can be done, but if they want to do the pasta business, they will have to buy a lot of things at that time. , These things all cost money.

It would be fine if they made money, but if they lost money, the things they bought back were all money, so this matter still needs to be discussed and discussed until a decision is made.Knowing that his son and nephew had both rented out the booth, Uncle Qiao stared, "Hey, you two are doing things without telling me."

It's money to rent a booth!When Uncle Qiao thought about it, he felt very distressed.

Qiao Mingshan looked at the little cousin opposite, and seeing that the cousin was looking at him, he winked at the little cousin, which meant that his father would probably agree to this matter.As long as his father agrees, Uncle Wu's side will definitely not be a problem.

Qiao Minglang lowered his head and smiled when he received the look from his cousin.
