Chapter 30
After saying goodbye to Yang Shiguang, Lu Li rushed to the train station, bought a train ticket, and returned to Tianjin. He had not eaten a single bite of food since he woke up in the morning. When he returned home, he was so hungry that his stomach was roaring. Who knew that the house was empty, there was a lock on the door, and he opened the door with a key. A smell of smoke drifted out, making people feel disgusting.
After wandering around the house, I found the snacks I bought in the past. These things were for my aunt and children. He didn't like to eat them very much. He put them in random orders and turned around to push the cart out. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the alley, someone suddenly shouted behind him, "Xiaoxiao?" It was Yu Fang who came back.
"Aunt, what are you doing? I'm starving to death!"
Yu Fang was stunned, and an apology smile appeared on her face, "Aren't I? Go to Zhang's house to talk, wait for me for a while, I will go buy vegetables now and cook when I come back."
"Forget it, I'm very hungry. I haven't eaten all morning, so don't worry." Lu Li said a few words to his aunt in anger and rode his bike away. All the way to Binjiang Road, I saw the blue smoke in front of the mutton skewers stall slowly rising, as if it had already started a fire. Lu Li rode close to him. Sure enough, Li Tiehan and Zhang Qing were talking and laughing, and were taking out a large iron basin from the house, covering it with a thick quilt, lifting the quilt, there were ice cubes on it, and there were neatly arranged lamb skewers in the middle.
"Oh, I saw my relatives!" Lu Li cheered, separated the two of them, picked up a handful of meat skewers with ice chips, and put them on the shelf that had not yet been burned, "Oh, Xiaoxiao, how many of us are here?"
"I just got off the train and I didn't eat for a day and starved me to death."
"Should you wait a while, the fire hasn't come up yet. We'll bake it for you later, and you'll just wait and eat it."
Lu Liyang took a few steps back, looking at the skewers that were frozen red, and he was so greedy that he swallowed his saliva. "By the way, who figured out this ice?"
"We are all, mainly Xu Yunjian. He said that in this season, mutton is easy to break. So he called the anti-sooth and pulled him and Yaohua over. We discussed the solution together. Finally, he said that we would get some ice from the anti-sooth and freeze the mutton - it was the experience of frozen beer when you were in the merchant forest." Zhang Qing explained one by one.
"How do you keep ice? If there is too little ice, won't it melt?"
"We dug a hole in the courtyard of Xu Yunjian's family. Of course, it's not as deep as the one in the merchant forest, but we can deal with it. In addition, every time we go to Hedong to get meat, we bring a lot of ice back and then replenish it."
Lu Li was very happy. The last time he beat Xu Yunjian, this guy got enlightened? It seems that he still has to be beaten! Thinking of this, he unconsciously showed a strange smile, which made Zhang Qing and Li Tiehan look at each other. "By the way, where are they?"
"I just went out and went to Binjiang Road to discuss things with other merchants. I will come back soon. Alas! Wait a minute, this is for Xiaoxiao. If you want it, can't I send it to you later?"
"Stop talking nonsense, what is Luli doing?"
The voice of his speech was heard, and it was Yang Dinghong, "Brother Hong, why are you going to have a free meal again? Erdanzi, I will tell you that if he doesn't pay, I will deduct it from your salary." Lu Li turned around and said with a smile.
Yang Dinghong was not alone, and he was accompanied by Li Xiaoping and Zhou Haoxin and other police officers from the criminal police team. Several people smiled and nodded, saying hello. Lu Li was startled and said, "I said, Brother Hong, I'll treat you to dinner. Can you not cause trouble for my business? Our brothers are pointing at it."
"No, I have to eat it today! I haven't tasted mutton skewers for a long time, and we are all hungry."
Yang Dinghong smiled, took out a handful of banknotes from his pocket and handed them to Li Tiehan, "Erdanzi, this is the money from the previous time. I, the King of Hell, shouldn't have a small devil's account! I will take it first! I will give it to you next time."
"Why do you always suppress us once? Isn't this a shame? The People's Liberation Army has three major disciplines and eight points of attention."
"Stop talking nonsense, Xiaoxiao didn't even speak. Are you talking about it? Besides, we are not the People's Liberation Army, we are police."
Li Tiehan cursed the streets with a murmur and lowered his head. He didn't like Yang Dinghong at all. When he first arrived here that day, Yang Dinghong asked him out of the question, and he treated him as a stinky thief. Even if he met each other in the future, he rarely spoke.
Lu Li and Zhang Qing whispered a few times, the latter nodded and left, and he stepped forward a few steps, "Brother Hong, do you really want to eat today?"
"Isn't it really a food? I won't have fun with you. This is money. From now on, I will treat me as an ordinary customer and give you money for food."
Lu Li was not polite, and took the money for a few points, which totaled 170 yuan. You can buy mutton skewers for 850 skewers. "This money... I may not have... Erdanzi, how much mutton is there today?"
"More than three thousand."
"That's enough, start baking." He winked at Li Tiehan, brought a few benches and square tables, and sat down with Yang Dinghong, "Brother Hong, I thank you for the last time."
"Forget it, don't mention the past, but Xiaoxiao, if this kind of thing is finished once, I will not be able to help in the second time."
"I understand, I understand. By the way, are you on duty today? Let's have some drinks?"
"If you don't have to be on duty, then we won't drink with you. Good guy, who doesn't know that you have a lot of alcohol." He smiled and said to Li Xiaoping: "You said you're so funny? This grandson is not big and has no alcohol tolerance! Xiaoxiao, how did you practice it?"
"I don't know, maybe it's born?"
"I can only say that I am born. I have drunk a lot over the years, but I found that this kind of thing cannot be achieved by practicing it, and it is still a score. Alas, Xiaoxiao, I'm pouring it on myself?"
"I won't drink anymore, there's something else."
Yang Dinghong didn't force himself, so he picked up a skewer of meat and bit it in big mouthfuls, "Mom, this thing is still delicious! Do you know what the only regret is?"
"Is it too little meat?"
Yang Dinghong laughed! "You tmd, you have hair and are more than Turin!"
"Actually, it's not that I can't bear to add meat. You don't understand this kind of thing. If there is too much meat and too thick, it will not be easy to taste. Instead, it will not taste delicious, just like hairtail. It is particularly wide. Will it taste a little worse?"
"That's right." The mutton skewers rose, attracting the surrounding pedestrians and stall owners on the Binjiang Road to gather around him. Yang Dinghong waved his hand, "Xiaoxiao, if you are busy, you'll be busy. Don't worry about us."
Lu Li's heart moved, and instead pulled the bench and sat down, "Brother Hong, I have something to tell you."
"Don't... you're not asking for trouble again." Yang Dinghong bit the mutton skewers and said vaguely: "Do you know for you... it's not for you, but for Xu Yunjian. How big is the wax I've sat on?"
"I know, I know, I have taught him a lesson. It's fine if others say he is, but Xu Yunjian dares not ignore me. This time I look for you is another thing."
"What's up?"
"That's right now. I'm considering that one day I might go to Hong Kong in the future. Well, of course, this is just a very preliminary idea, and it's still far from realizing it. But I'm thinking. If I really leave, the stalls in Tianjin. Please take care of me at that time."
"Nonsense, I am a policeman and I can't do business. Will I take care of you?"
"No, I either let you do business or something is wrong. Please help me."
"Then you don't have to say that it's your relationship. Do you think we police are just eating for free every day? Of course we have to take care of things."
"Don't talk to me about official accents. How have you learned this virtue now?" Lu Li stood up and left with an unhappy face.
Yang Dinghong laughed and pulled him back, "Xiaoxiao, it's not that I'm talking to you. I'm not going to be so good at this kind of thing. Now I'll take a big bag on my chest, but don't worry, as long as there is something, I can't be there any time I'm on call?"
Luli gave him a blank look, "This is almost the same."
"But, Xiaoxiao, are you really planning to go to Hong Kong? What are you doing there? You have never been there before. You broke through with a black eye and didn't know anyone, so what are you doing?"
"Well, I still say the same thing. I'll try it. If I can't, I'll return it."
As the two of them were talking here, Lu Li suddenly sank his back, and he pressed on him alone. It was Xu Yunjian, "Xiaoxiao, why did so many geniuses come back? We still think you stayed in the merchant forest and have been in the lineup for the second time."
"The name of Merchant Lin is gone now, and Merchant Lin is still there. Merchant Lin's name is? Let me go, don't you think it's hot?"
Xu Yunjian laughed and stood up. Lu Li turned to look over. Not only him, Cao Xun, Shan Zhenli and others were also behind him. "Hey, Brother Shan, have you eaten? Come and some mutton skewers?"
Cao Xun leaned over and whispered in his ear, "Really?"
"Isn't it true? You didn't see it, Brother Shan has come here."
Lu Li and Yang Dinghong nodded a few times and stood up, "Brother Shan, should you eat first or chat first?"
"Let's produce first, then live."
Luli smiled, "Then, let's talk in the room."
When they entered the room, several people sat down separately. Lu Li asked, "Cao Xun just said to me, Brother Shan, are you really planning to do this?"
"That's right. Xiao Lu, I won't hide it from you. You're not going to be your method. Xiao Cao told me a few days ago. I discussed with Laojun for several nights. Later, our brothers decided to get it from you in large quantities. We would like to take as much as we want. Then we will transfer it to the wholesale to these people on Binjiang Road. Of course, let's discuss the money again?"
"Of course this is OK, but Brother Shan, you have to think about it.... This will make money, but it won't make a lot of money. And if you find out about it in the future, I'm afraid it won't be good."
"Anyway, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to be beaten. Who can tell us that ours is not going? Don't worry, even if someone is unhappy, it's the business of our brothers, and it has nothing to do with you."
"Well, what about the money?"
"We want to hear about you first."
"I will increase all the clothes by 25%. As for how much you sell, I don't care."
Shan Zhenli and Jun Hanping were both disgraceful, and they were filled with huge surprises in their hearts, but they were more grateful!
This price is really suitable for them! When they were working with Luli, they knew the purchase price of the clothes he sold. When they separated and opened their own business, they went to Yangcheng to buy goods, but there was no such price at all! Take women's underwear as an example, bras and underwear were 1.22 and 2.00 yuan respectively, but the prices they bought were 1.56 and 2.56 yuan respectively, which were increased by 28% on the basis of Luli's price. If the shipping fee and food and accommodation are added, the cost of each piece of clothing will increase even more - it is not that such a price cannot make money, but compared with Luli, it is much less - today Luli takes the initiative to lower the price, which is naturally valuable for those who do business.
, "No, Xiao Lu, let's do this, don't 25%. We will give you the price at the beginning, according to the price we bought in Yangcheng. How about it? To be honest, you have saved us a lot of money. You have to make money by running around from north to south."
"What about you? Is there any profit to others at such a price?"
"Why didn't there? You don't know that when the three of us went to Yangcheng, we had to spend money on the road and food and accommodation after we arrived? Let me tell you the truth. If the three of us went on this trip, the messy money would be more than 300!" Shan Zhenli said with a wry smile: "Sometimes, it's really a headache to think about it. I don't make a penny, and I'll lose more than 100 yuan per person!"
"Yes, so the method you proposed is good, which has helped us and saved us more. Really, Xiao Lu..., I told Lao Dan that in the future, if one day, you, Luli, will be useful to our brothers, in one sentence! If we urinate on the sea, we won't pee standing!"
"Okay, then this matter has been settled. But there is still one condition."
"you say?"
"When you go to Yangcheng to buy clothes, you two have to separate one person to follow us. It is not to ask you to help with transporting, but to choose some clothing. As the second move, you must also be clear about it. Don't make a lot of inappropriate clothes, and you can't sell them in the end and smash them all into your hands. Isn't that a waste?"
"I didn't say anything! When are you going to leave?"
"It's not enough yet, Xu Yunjian and Zhang Qing. You guys help them to move out all the clothes in our warehouse, point out the numbers, and write them down one by one after another."
"no problem!"
Lu Li stood up with a smile, and his body swayed violently. Fortunately, Cao Xun stood beside him and held him, "Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you?"
"I'm hungry. Fuck me, I'm starving to death."
"Hurry up, let Erdanzi bring in some meat skewers."
Li Xueqing pushed the door open and a small figure happened to walk to the door and slid into the house. Li Xueqing didn't pay attention, "Uncle...Uncle!"
"Hey? Why are you here?"
The child was carrying a cloth bag in his hand, sweating all over his face, and lifted it up high, "Grandma... I brought it! Where is grandma?"
Luli looked up and Yu Fang was walking into the hut. The scorching sun at the end of June made the woman sweat and looked at him with a smile. Luli felt sad and she burst into tears on the spot! For a sentence of her, her aunt bought vegetables and cooked for herself under the sun, and even ignored the distance, she delivered it to her hands. "Aunt, you..."
"Uncle, what are you eating, but... it's delicious!"
