"The principal invites you to play chess in the office?"

"Yes, because I'm very skilled."

"You know how to play Go, when will you learn to play Go?" Li Weiguo grew up with him, and the two of them played backgammon in their free time.

Go to the mountains to cut firewood, or go to the wild to pull pig food. When you meet someone, use stones to draw a chessboard on the ground, pick up dozens of stones, and play backgammon.

If you want to play military chess, you can't afford to buy military chess for a few cents.

I remember when I was in elementary school, teacher Li Honggui had a pair of chess pieces that he sawed from wood chips and the chessboard was drawn on a piece of kraft paper.

I even borrowed it to play a few games during physical education class.

When I was in junior high school, my Chinese teacher Deng Chaolun had an exquisite chess set.

The chessboard is drawn on a wooden board, and the chess pieces are also made particularly thick.

Teacher Deng often plays chess with Teacher Wu in the room, and the two often get red-faced because of their quarrels.

They often run in to watch the fun.

I remember that you, Pan Dazhang, have never even played chess, but you suddenly said that you can play Go, and you are an amateur at 3rd Dan.

What's going on?

Pan Dazhang: "I'm hungry, I'll eat first."

After eating several bowls of rice, she patted her belly and said, "I'm full, I'm full. The food cooked by Xiao Qinqin is getting more and more delicious. If you want to tie a man's heart, you must first tie his stomach.

Where did you learn this trick from?"

Wen Xiaoqin slapped him on the back and said angrily: "I can't stop your mouth even though I'm eating."

Pan Dazhang chuckled and said: "So don't worry too much about me in the future. Maybe the principal will invite me to drink tea and play chess again. You three will go to Changdi Road to set up a stall first, and I will go to the video hall to watch the first day of opening today."

How’s the profit?”

After saying that, he rode off and left.

Li Weiguo was still in the circle and did not react.

"When did Da Zhang learn to play Go? Let alone playing, I've never seen it before."

After picking up the goods, we walked towards Changdi Road.

Passing by Master Huang's repair shop, the fat cousin Huang Qingsheng saw him and chased him out.

"Weiguo, Weiguo, wait a minute, I want to tell you something."

Li Weiguo: "Cousin, what's the matter?"

"Weiguo, I have been with the master for two years, and today he told me that I can leave the master."

"Congratulations to you, you finally made it to graduation. What do you think, are you going to open your own shop or go work for others?"

His master said that he could become a master, which meant that even if he worked in a repair shop, he could still get a share of the master's wages.

As an apprentice, you are provided with food and accommodation, and the master will give you at most ten yuan a month as pocket money.

I also have to help the master's family with other tasks.

I am also responsible for doing all the hard work in the store.

After you graduate, you can get a salary of three yuan a day, and you don't have to live in the master's home or in a repair shop.

You can either go back to your own home or rent a house.

In a word, apprentices must obey their master unconditionally, otherwise the master will say that you are not good at learning the craft, and it will be difficult for you to be successful in this industry before you graduate.

"But Wei Guo, you know, I actually studied with the master for two years. Because I am stupid, I can't handle many difficult problems. Your brain is easy to use and your level is higher than mine. Let me open a store by myself. It's very difficult.

It’s hard to bear it.” Huang Qingsheng said in embarrassment.

"Then you can continue working in Master Huang's repair shop. It will cost you three yuan a day, ninety a month, which is higher than the salary of employees in state-owned enterprises."

Li Weiguo thought: Is three yuan a day a high income?

It doesn't seem to be high.

Because they set up stalls for a few hours every night and earn more than three yuan each.

Da Zhang is right, it is not difficult to make money. What is difficult is to find a path that suits you.

"Well, I don't have the ability, so I have to work for others. In fact, my house has a room on the roadside, which is very suitable for opening a repair shop."

"Where?"

"Opposite the farmer's market, just the exit of the farmer's market."

Li Weiguo said in a deep voice: "Well, let me talk to Dazhang. He is more savvy when it comes to business."

At this time Pan Dazhang was in the video room.

Li Lanying was reporting to him the situation of ticket sales so far in the afternoon.

Before lunch, tickets were sold for 326 yuan and goods sold for 148 yuan.

After lunch, the total so far is 458 yuan, and the goods sold are 269 yuan.

Li Lanying handed him the money.

"Dazhang, there are not many drinks and other goods left. We have to restock early tomorrow morning."

The person I contacted last time to purchase goods was Uncle Zou Jun from Xiaoximen Chuangfu Non-staple Food Company.

Zou Jun also told him: "How many drinks can you sell in a day and how many other melon seeds candies can you sell? I can arrange for employees to deliver them to you every morning."

Pan Dazhang didn't know much about it at that time.

"Then tomorrow, I will ask the workers to bring some goods over, and you can ask the workers to calculate the approximate quantity."

"Yes, that's it."

So at this time, he asked Li Lanying to count the goods that will be purchased tomorrow, and the people from the non-staple food company will bring the goods over tomorrow morning and purchase according to the quantity.

He left enough money for Li Lanying to purchase goods.

"Dazhang, I think we can get more food. Many people who watch the video don't go back to eat at noon. They are addicted to watching it and are always hungry. They say that the more they drink this drink, the hungrier they become. Eat

The biscuits are too dry, and I’m not only hungry.”

Pan Dazhang thought for a while and said: "Tomorrow morning I will buy some corn, sweet potatoes, and some eggs, build a few stoves, buy some charcoal, cook the food and sell it to them."

In this era, no one buys mineral water, so at worst, boil some water.

He thought of the old man selling tea eggs in Tongtianyan.

Eggs cost three cents each, put on a handful of tea leaves, and sell for a dime when cooked.

The same goes for corn and sweet potatoes.

"It's still a big chapter, and the brain is easy to use." Li Lanying praised.

Pan Dazhang thought for a while and said: "Sister Lan Ying, in this case, your workload will be increased again. I'll give you an extra dollar a day."

This way she has two and a half yuan a day.

I have seventy or eighty yuan a month, which is a pretty good income.

"Thank you Dazhang, I will definitely work hard." Li Lanying said with a smile.

"What did your parents do to you later? What about Guangchun? He went to sell goods again at night?" Pan Dazhang looked around.

"My parents talked to my uncle and realized that I had done something wrong. In addition, there was no trace of Pan Guangchun here. They saw that what I was doing here was satisfactory, so they stayed for a while and left."

Li Lanying: "I still want to thank you Da Zhang. If it weren't for your help this time, we wouldn't know what to do. Guang Chun came back just now and said that all the goods were sold out. But he hadn't eaten yet and said he would go outside to look for it.

Have something to eat, maybe you’ll be back soon.”

While talking, I saw Pan Guangchun walking over from the other side of the street.

At this time, three young people came to buy tickets.

“How much does a video ticket cost?”

Pan Dazhang recognized him as Huang Jun who wanted to apply for the job a few days ago.

The man Xiong Lanlan later married in her previous life.

"One person, one ticket, each ticket costs two yuan. How many tickets do you want to buy?" Li Lanying replied with a smile.

"It's so expensive, you won't grab it?" Huang Jun shouted loudly.

Du Shanwen heard this and walked out.

"If you don't have money, don't watch it, and we won't beg you to watch it." He stared at him.

"You're big, I'm afraid of you. You're not the boss, why are you so arrogant?" He glanced at Pan Dazhang coldly.

"I'm the boss, what do you want?" Pan Dazhang took a step forward.

He may not necessarily take such a rat-like figure into his heart.

"Are you the boss? Let me ask you, how much does a video ticket cost for you this morning?"
