Those years when I raised bosses

Chapter 4 04 A Little Dispute

Tong Tong took He Xiaolu to a clean-looking breakfast shop in the village of the city, had a "luxury" breakfast of soybean milk fried dough sticks and eggs, walked across the main road, and took a bus to the famous wholesale market in the city to buy goods.

When Tong Tong was studying at C University, a certain treasure was not yet online, and he still went to major wholesale markets to buy cheap and affordable small commodities.Tong Tong and his friends in the dormitory often hang out in these commercial buildings near the zoo, and the bus routes are clear.

In this year and month, there is no bus card in the imperial capital. When going out to take a bus, you need to find a conductor to buy a ticket.They were a little behind the morning rush hour, and the people on the bus were not too crowded. Seeing Tong Tong with a toddler, they gave up their seats one after another.Let Tong Tong finally enjoy the preferential treatment of "taking" the bus in the imperial capital.

The main business hours of the wholesale market are in the morning. During non-holidays, most of the people who come and go here are small traders. There are few people like Tong Tong with babies. If you want to bring a small trailer, it is convenient to pull more goods.

Tong Tong's capital was limited, so he only bought a batch of beads that were exquisitely punched in bulk, and added gold and silver threads to increase the quality of the woven bracelet, and he couldn't afford other finished accessories.Tong Tong remembered that there were several specialized small jewelry stores near C University, which had everything from high, medium and low-end small items, and they also purchased from here.He is a street vendor, except for the low-price strategy with small profits and high sales, he will definitely not be able to compete with fixed stores. If he wants to make more money in a limited time, he must take a differentiated business route.

20 yuan to buy goods, 50 yuan to buy two new summer clothes for He Xiaolu, short-sleeved shorts, pure cotton material, fashionable and elegant, and changed into a set on He Xiaolu on the spot.Then he bought two of the cheapest lined notebooks and a dozen ballpoint pens, which can not only be used for business accounting, but also to write and draw in his spare time to teach He Xiaolu to learn.

If a smart child like He Xiaolu can keep up with his early education, his future prospects will be immeasurable.

There are many stalls selling toys in the wholesale market. There are all kinds of small cars, bubble blowers and houses. thing.

Tong Tong looked very sad.But rather than buying toys, Tong Tong thinks it is more important to broaden one's horizons and gain knowledge.He walked around again to see which stall he wanted to buy next time. He decisively carried the newly bought goods, hugged He Xiaolu out of the wholesale market, walked through the underground passage, and stood at the gate of the zoo.

He Xiaolu was young and tall enough not to need a ticket, so Tong Tong gritted his teeth and bought himself a full-price adult ticket, which cost [-].Before entering the gate of the park, I bought two bottles of mineral water and a biscuit at the roadside newsstand to make sufficient preparations. There is no such cheap food and drink inside.

"Where is this place, Dad?" He Xiaolu asked curiously. He saw that there were many children who were about the same size as him, and they were happily preparing to go in.

"This is the zoo. There are all kinds of cute animals in it. The neighbor's children have been to the place before. I happened to pass by today, so let's go and see it too."

Wealthy families take their children out, bringing food and drinks with them, pushing baby carriages, holding parasols, and crowding around before and after taking pictures all the way, for fear of wronging their children.

Even the father and son have a way to play poorly without money.When the sun is high, go to the shade of the tree, drink water when you are thirsty, eat sesame seed cakes when you are hungry, and just carry a bag of things with you without any other burden.In places with few people, He Xiaolu tried his best to walk on his short legs. In places with many people, Tong Tong held him in his arms, using his height advantage to let the baby see clearly.

Monkey Mountain, Lion and Tiger Mountain, Panda Pavilion, cats, dogs, rabbits, kid goats, turtles, pythons, big frogs, all of them have been seen.Only the ticket price of the aquarium is too expensive to afford, so I can only ignore it for the time being.

He Xiaolu is naturally a bit regretful, but compared to today's huge harvest and fresh experience, that little regret is forgotten in the blink of an eye.

The things in the city were still a bit expensive, Tong Tong gave He Xiaolu all the biscuits, and he insisted on going back to the village in the city after three o'clock in the afternoon, before he bought two big buns to pad his stomach.I bought some rice, noodles, grains and oils at the vegetable market at the entrance of the village, cucumbers, tomatoes and half a large watermelon that can be eaten raw. Carrying a few plastic bags, I finally returned to the rental room with the baby.

The body is exhausted, but the heart is full.

He Xiaolu was so excited that he stayed up all the time, chattering about the knowledge points he gained today. He remembered the names of various animals very clearly, which was more vivid than the cards for identifying animals by looking at pictures.

"Father, today is really fun." He Xiaolu smiled happily, "Is it true that Lulu has always been obedient, so I can go again?"

"Of course we can go again." Tong Tong looked at Wa's smiling face, feeling more satisfied than Wa.No wonder so many people are obsessed with raising babies, they are willing to spend money like running water for the sake of the baby’s brains.We've only been together for less than a day, and it's already hard to extricate ourselves.

"Tired? Do you want to take a nap?"

"Not tired! Lulu still needs to learn how to weave bracelets." He Xiaolu straightened his body and was full of fighting spirit.

In view of the limited fine motor ability of children, Tong Tong only asked He Xiaolu to choose beads for the next work of making bracelets, and put them on at designated positions.This is much more interesting than the bead-piercing toys that are often dozens of times larger. The key is that the finished product can be sold for money.

The father and son worked together and finally prepared the supplies for tonight before dinner.

In addition to the thick rice porridge for dinner today, there are also cucumbers, tomatoes mixed with sugar, and big sweet watermelons, and the table is full.Although there was no decent dry food and meat dishes, they were one of the few rich ones in He Xiaolu's memory.

The father and son are both very effective in combat. They quickly wiped out a table to eat, packed up their belongings, and left the house before 7 o'clock.

Tonight, He Xiaolu was wearing the newly bought clothes, with a high spirit and a beautiful expression on his face.Look, these are the new clothes my father bought for me. We went to the zoo during the day and ate so many delicious things at night.It's nice to have a dad!Last night, the fear of being abandoned by my father completely dissipated.

Finding the place where the stall was set up yesterday, Tong Tong tied up the bracelets, and today they launched a new product, couple bracelets, 30 yuan a pair not only for sale.Compared with yesterday's price of 50 yuan, the price has not changed, and the product has added new beads and gold and silver threads, which is more refined.

He Liantian's good looks are too good. I heard the news yesterday, but I didn't see anyone who didn't buy the goods. She had been waiting at the spot for a long time.As soon as they saw their father and son appear, they immediately called their friends and gathered together.

In less than half an hour, there was a circle of people in front of the stall, mostly girls, who didn't know what happened.

Duan Fang, who had just made an appointment for a walk with his girlfriend by the river, waited and waited to see his girlfriend. Looking in the direction of the crowds, he found that his girlfriend Xue Mingmin was among them. It seemed that he had an argument with someone. .

"This bracelet is the one I have my eye on first!" A girl held on to the last 50-yuan bracelet, refusing to let it go.

Xue Mingmin showed aggrieved face and said: "Obviously I have already ordered and paid all the money, but I just picked a few others to buy together. How did it become yours? Could it be yours if you touch it?"

"I just lowered my head to look for change." The girl quibbled.

The onlookers really didn't pay much attention to who came first.The girl's face was obviously thicker than Xue Mingmin's, and she insisted that she paid the money first.

Tong Tong was a little helpless, firstly, he really didn't pay attention to the order of the two, and secondly, he didn't expect his bracelet to sell so well, which caused the two girls to argue regardless of face.He hurriedly said: "If not, I'll make another one on the spot, so stop arguing."

Unexpectedly, the girl said: "Why, aren't these bracelets all unique? I like this one, but others can't have it. You can't make it the same again!"

Duan Fang was annoyed when he heard this, and at first he didn't want to come out to help, but he really couldn't bear to see this sentence, so he stood beside Xue Mingmin and said a few words of justice.

Unexpectedly, the girl changed her crying tone in an instant, pretending to be weak, accusing Duan Fang and Xue Mingmin of bullying others because of their numbers.

Duan Fang is a cadre of the C Student Union, and many of the students present knew him well. Those who didn't know the cause and effect were slandered by the girl who turned black and white, so they couldn't help but cast doubt on Duan Fang.

This gaze forced Xue Mingmin to feel embarrassed, afraid of dragging her boyfriend down, she whispered to Duan Fang: "This is my business, don't worry about it, just wait for me."

But seeing his girlfriend being bullied, how could Duan Fang just turn around and leave without caring about his own reputation?He collected himself, asked his girlfriend about the details of the incident just now, and then solemnly asked the girl about the whole process.That girl had a guilty conscience, and she didn't make sense of what she said, and the people present were not fools, so she could tell who was right by listening.

The girl did nothing but steal the chicken, and finally put down the bracelet and walked away in desperation.Lin Li was unconvinced and taunted: "What do you think is a good thing, but it's just a cheap thing. Who doesn't come here to buy a bracelet to see handsome men?"

The speaker had no intention of the listener, and Xue Mingmin burst into tears of grievance.

"Don't cry, I understand." Duan Fang couldn't see his girlfriend crying the most, he was at a loss, his mouth was clumsy and he didn't know how to persuade him.

"What do you know!" Xue Mingmin pouted and said, "Actually, I saw that this gentleman brought a little doll out to set up a stall at night, maybe because money is tight. Anyway, I have a lot of pocket money, so I thought about picking another one." A few strings are given as gifts. Who knows..."

Of course, Tong Tong was tight on money, and he could see the kindness shown by many girls when they were shopping.He hastily expressed his thanks.

Duan Fang took advantage of the situation and asked, "Are you an alumnus of C University? Which department did you graduate from? If you really have difficulties in life, you can ask the alumni association for help."

C University is the top university in the imperial capital, and those who can study here are definitely the dragons and phoenixes. Previously, everyone only saw He Liantian's good looks and his gentle manners. Although they didn't talk about it in depth, they subconsciously felt that he might be an alumnus.After all, few people outside the school know about setting up stalls in this place.

But Tong Tong has principles in life, He Liantian is not a student of C University, how can he be confused.He shook his head and said shyly, "I am not a student who graduated from here. I came here to set up a stall because of someone else's advice. Thank you for your kindness. If the school refuses to let me, then I will leave now."

Duan Fang knew that the school did not have any express regulations not to allow outsiders to set up stalls, but for students who are not from C University, like the students around him, he would inevitably look down a bit, and his speech was no longer so polite.

Tong Tong obediently agreed and didn't talk much.It's almost nine o'clock, the stock is sold out, and it's time for him to take the baby home.

At this moment, two foreign female students came, one of them was blond and the other was black. The two obviously did not speak the same language, so they barely talked, but it seemed that they came here specially to buy bracelets.

The black girl can speak a few words of Chinese, but she only briefly expressed the meaning of buying a bracelet, and spoke English in a hurry.The other blond girl couldn't speak Chinese at all, but she could barely hear that the meaning of the black girl's English expression was different from what she said, so she had to explain it by herself.

The students around were confused.

Duan Fang claimed to be a student cadre of C University, and took the initiative to stand up and ask questions in standard English, trying to figure out what the two wanted to do.As a result, before he could finish speaking English, he heard the stall owner selling bracelets speak.

Tong Tong, who learned German at the age of four and read original German books as a teenager, naturally understood what the blonde girl said.He communicated with the blond girl in German without any obstacles, and turned his face to explain clearly to the black girl in English.

Tong Tong spoke both German and English fluently and idiomatically, which made the two foreign girls smile, and the three of them chatted together.

Although this is not a student of C University, but the level of these two foreign languages ​​alone is enough to impress.The onlookers immediately changed their attitudes and showed even more admiring eyes to the handsome guy.

With a fever on his face, Duan Fang dragged his girlfriend Xue Mingmin away quietly.
