Eighties Housekeeper Little Wife

Hearing this, the old man blushed and had a thick neck. He didn't want to pay for Shen Mingyuan's melon seeds at all, but the smell of the melon seeds was so fragrant that he could smell the faint fragrance from a distance.

The taste of this jasmine tea is very good, not pungent at all, and it smells refreshing and very comfortable.

The more fragrant he smelled, the more curious he became, what the smell was and why it attracted so many customers. In order to solve the other party's puzzle, he had to reluctantly take out a dime to buy the other party's melon seeds, thinking that today is the most business It's a day away, not only did not sell much, but also sold melon seeds at the expense of money.

The old man wondered if it was really delicious, or if it was just fragrant. He would know it after tasting it, and his tongue was very refined. After eating it, he was guaranteed to be able to study it, but he still said aggrievedly: "Young man, you Get me a cup."

"Okay." Shen Mingyuan lowered his head and filled the old man with a cup, wrapped it in oil paper and handed it to him.

The old man took it and slammed it quickly. As soon as he put it in his mouth, he felt the fragrance and sweetness mixed with the original taste of melon seeds, not to mention that it was really delicious and unexpected.

He nibbled the sunflower seeds without realizing it, one by one, and his movements could not stop at all. Usually, he would feel dry mouth when eating sunflower seeds, but when he ate the jasmine-flavored cantaloupe seeds, he would not feel thirsty at all, but had something to eat. I still want to eat, but these are not enough.

The old man was fascinated by eating, and just about to pick it up, he found that the paper bag was empty, the melon seeds had been eaten up, and he put down his hands a little embarrassedly. .

It's really delicious.

Shen Mingyuan ignored the old man after selling the melon seeds. He stared intently at the entrance of the cinema. The old man looked at the buttery melon seeds next to him, and felt like a cat scratching his head, and wanted to taste it.

"I'll have another cup of this too."

"Ok."

The old man got the butter-flavored melon seeds, and he was even more impressed when he ate it. The taste was also delicious, with a bit of saltiness in the sweetness, and it felt very thick and milky.

Moreover, he originally wanted to test if he could taste what it tasted, but after eating it, he couldn't figure out how it seemed to be done, instead, he became more and more confused.

The old man could only taste the taste of jasmine and add jasmine tea to it, but the fragrance of the melon seeds is very strong, and I don't know how to get it out.

After thinking about it, he asked Shen Mingyuan, "How did you do this? Fang Zi is not for sale, I will buy you at a high price."

When Shen Mingyuan heard this, he immediately became vigilant. Although he was honest, it didn't mean he didn't understand anything. His melon seeds sold so well, all because the second sister-in-law's recipe tasted good. It is possible to sell all the overstocked inventory so easily.

So this recipe is the most important thing. If it is really known to others, wouldn't it be a business **** with him. When they learn the secret recipe, wouldn't they be beaten back to their original shape.

Shen Mingyuan recognized that the old man didn't follow his good intentions, so he was a little more wary of him, and directly refused and said, "I'm sorry, I won't sell this secret recipe for any amount of money. If you want to eat melon seeds, you can continue to buy mine."

The old man frowned, looking at the young man who looked like a fool, but his brain was still very smart, these melon seeds are really delicious, otherwise he would not have thought of the secret recipe.

"You have to think carefully. After I finish eating this melon seeds, I can probably guess what's in it, and I can study it myself when I go back. If you promise to sell it now, you can still sell it for a good price. It's too late for you to regret it."

This is to scare Shen Mingyuan, making him think that this secret recipe is easy to crack, so that as long as he panics, he will never be able to hide things.

When Shen Mingyuan heard this, his face suddenly became ugly. He suspected that the old man was lying to him, and he couldn't taste what he put in. The old man must have said that on purpose to blow him up.

But his heart did beat twice, and he looked at the old man and shook his head firmly: "No matter what you say, I won't sell it."

When the old man saw that his words and tactics failed, he immediately changed his face: "You will regret it at that time."

Shen Mingyuan didn't listen to his threats, and rushed people directly: "Let's go, I'm going to do business."

The old man angrily returned to his stall, looked at the few melon seeds left by Shen Mingyuan across from him, and thought to himself, what is the arrogance, isn't the melon seeds delicious? When I go home and buy some materials for research, I will definitely be able to make delicious melon seeds and steal his business.

After the movie was over, the young people watching the movie also went inside and out one after another, and many people ran directly to Shen Mingyuan's booth as soon as they went out.

A young couple walked in the front, and the woman said to the man, "The bag of melon seeds just now was so delicious, I didn't have enough, you can buy me some more."

"The good bag is on me, and I'll buy it for you as much as you want."

Hearing what the man said, other theater customers also agreed and said, "I regret that I didn't buy more just now. I can't stop eating if I insist on eating. It's really enjoyable to watch while eating."

"I have never eaten such fragrant melon seeds before. I bought some and went back to give my family a taste."

The few kilograms of melon seeds that Shen Mingyuan had left were quickly robbed by everyone. Looking at the empty baskets, it was as clean as his face. Those customers who didn't buy them looked at the empty baskets and became anxious: "Why so quickly? No, I just bought a cup, and I haven't had enough."

"Yeah, how do you do business? You don't have a lot of preparations for selling melon seeds. Selling so little will affect your business. Don't you want to make money if the boss has money???"

"Yeah, my girlfriend is still watching that. If I can't buy melon seeds, I'll be embarrassed."

Seeing a group of people making a fuss and asking to sell melon seeds, Shen Mingyuan was confused. He didn't even think that the selling of melon seeds would develop to this level, and he had already started rushing to buy them.

But today he was thinking about the trial business, and he didn't expect so many people. If he had known earlier, he would definitely have prepared more melon seeds, but now it's too late to say anything. If you don't come out, give them melon seeds.

Now it has appeared, and there is no such thing as a sale.

Shen Mingyuan didn't know what to say, so he could only apologize to everyone one by one and explain the situation clearly.

"I'm sorry, it's my first time to set up a stall today. I'm a little less prepared. Next time, you can buy it again. I will often set up a stall at the cinema."

Many people didn't buy sunflower seeds, and they were not in a good mood at all, but seeing that there were no sunflower seeds, they didn't bother anymore. Besides, seeing that Shen Mingyuan was a disabled person, they were somewhat sympathetic and humble, but they kept asking questions. : "When will you come next time, do you have a specific time?"

"Come over tomorrow night." Shen Mingyuan finished packing his basket, and left in the eyes of everyone "reluctantly".

These people waited until Shen Mingyuan left, in order to relieve their greed, they saw that the old man was also selling melon seeds, so they walked over to take care of his business.

The day lily that the old man was waiting for was cold, and he finally waited for his business to open up. This was only after the melon seeds were sold out and customers couldn't buy them.

Never thought that the customer frowned as soon as they bought the melon seeds: "Bah."

Old man: "..."

"Your taste is far from good. It's not as delicious as anyone else's. No wonder you can't sell it."

"..."

"The melon seeds sold by that little brother are delicious. I won't buy this or that at the same price. I'll save the money and buy it tomorrow."

The customer who bought it also regretted it, and suddenly felt that he didn't buy the taste he liked for a dime, and he lost a lot.

And after the comparison, I found out that the melon seeds sold by the handicapped brother are really more delicious, and the delicious ones are priced at a dime.

Everyone lost interest and left, leaving the old man with a red face and a thick neck. Today is really the worst day. He must imitate the other party's melon seeds. When he sells big cups, he will not worry about crowding. Are you ruining the other party's business?

Shen Mingyuan walked home with a bag of coins in his head, feeling the heavy feeling inside. He was floating now. When he recalled the time when he set up a stall just now, it was a little unreal. The money is too good.

He had lived in his twenties, and it was the first time that he felt that money was so easy to earn. The scene of madly robbing melon seeds felt like customers were waiting to give him money.

Money is a good thing, you can buy anything.

After Shen Mingyuan set up the stall today, his fighting spirit became stronger, and he would set up the stall every night in the future.

In the next few days, Shen Mingyuan went to other places to sell melon seeds, and without exception, the business was very good, so he bought another 100 catties of raw melon seeds, fried them according to the method taught by Chen Yuan, and brought them with him every day. The melon seeds sold out, and customers would go crazy when they saw him.

His second sister-in-law said not to prepare too many melon seeds every day, and it is better to be as tight as possible, so that everyone can buy some, but not too much, which makes them tired and don't want to buy them next time.

This method can keep everyone fresh for a longer time. Although this method cannot be used forever, it is enough to leave a deep impression on people. When they become famous, they will not worry about sales later.

Shen Mingyuan felt that what Chen Yuan said was very reasonable. He never thought that there would be so many twists and turns in doing business. If the second sister-in-law didn't tell him, he would sell as many as the family had.

But when there are more sales, everyone is satisfied, and they don't feel fresh afterward, so the sales will naturally be poor. Besides, if people feel that they can buy it when they want to eat it, they will not be missed by others.

Shen Mingyuan wrote all these business methods in a notebook, and he took it out and studied it. Although he didn't understand it, he could learn it slowly. The second sister-in-law is a very good teacher. No matter how difficult it is, you have the confidence to succeed.

In the old house, Zhang Guilan was the first to find Shen Mingyuan going home. One day she went to the market to buy vegetables. She passed by the elderly activity center and saw someone selling melon seeds at a stall. Upon closer inspection, the person looked like Shen Mingyuan.

Because she wondered if she had read it wrong, she got closer and took a closer look. Sure enough, she had read it right, that stupid, trembling stunned look, besides Shen Chang'an's mentally retarded son, was there anyone else?

Besides, he had been married into the old Shen family for so many years, and this stupid son would not admit his mistake if he turned into ashes. The Shen family was all healthy, and only this one was abnormal, and it was a big drag on Shen Changan.

Shen Changan never mentioned about his youngest son in the work unit. Even if others asked, he would quickly bypass the topic, especially after he was promoted. He has a disabled son, and it's a shame to say it.

Shen Mingyuan finally managed to finish high school after stumbling and stumbling. In the past ten years of his study career, it is estimated that he has been persuaded to quit his school hundreds of times, and he was not allowed to continue his studies.

Because everyone knows that even if he studies hard, he can't find a good job. Which unit will use a disabled person to work in a factory. People are afraid that his hands and feet will be inflexible. If he uses the machine, there will be safety problems. rise.

Zhang Guilan was worried every day at that time, whether she and Lao Shen would have to support this fool in the future. Although the fool didn't eat much, he couldn't support himself and would probably support him for the rest of his life.

Later, Lao Shen asked a lot of people to send red envelopes and gifts. It was considered that they found a wood factory that could use Shen Mingyuan as an apprentice.

As an apprentice, there is a little bit of salary for a month, plus the disability allowance for him. If he learns woodworking craftsmanship in the future, he will also be able to eat. If he has the skills, he will not starve to death and can live anywhere.

The wood factory was far from Wucheng. After Shen Ming went away, Old Shen also hoped that he could learn a craft and find a way out for himself in the future. After all, he could never rely on his family to help him.

Such a young man who always eats plain rice at home would become a parasite, so when Shen Mingyuan left, Lao Shen was very happy.

Now that he came back quietly, he still set up a stall, didn't he work in the wood factory?

Zhang Guilan thought of this and hurriedly went home and told Shen Changan the matter.

When Shen Changan heard it, he was really anxious. He finally found a factory for this little bastard. When he went to work, some arrangements were properly arranged, and now he actually came back to set up a stall.

According to Zhang Guilan's location, he went to the street to find the place where Shen Mingyuan set up his stall, and saw the familiar figure surrounded by a lot of customers.

Shen Changan didn't get angry, stepped forward and reprimanded angrily: "Shen Mingyuan, you really have hard wings now, tell me when you come back, you dare to set up a stall here."

Shen Mingyuan was stunned when he heard his father's roar, his voice was a little hollow: "Dad, why are you here?"

Shen Changan said angrily: "I don't come, I still don't know what you have done. Did you not work in the wood factory?"

Shen Mingyuan lowered his head and said tremblingly, "It's not that I quit, but the owner of the wood factory doesn't need me anymore."

Shen Changan's face was even more ugly when he heard the words: "Did you make a mistake, I finally sent you in, you are not sensible at all, why don't you cherish this opportunity? Don't you know that it will be harder to find a job in the future than to go to heaven? Is it? It's for your own good to let you learn a technique, but you don't understand my painstaking efforts, but you are here to engage in speculative things, which is so disappointing to me. "

Shen's father's aura frightened the surrounding customers away. Originally, there were many customers in Shen Mingyuan's stall, but now his business has disappeared.

Shen Mingyuan now regards the melon seed business as more important than his life. He does not agree with Father Shen's old concept, and explained excitedly: "Dad, listen to me, this is not a matter of speculation, now people's minds are freed, and they can be allowed to I don’t believe that even if I don’t learn carpentry, I can still gain a foothold in society as long as I work hard, make three hundred and sixty lines, and become a champion.”

"You are still arguing with me, you are really bold, what will you do if you sell melon seeds?" Shen Changan despised the hawkers who set up the stalls, in his eyes they were all the work done by the inferior people. , Saying it can't make it to the table.

Besides, these melon seeds are even more cheap and cheap. Pointing at this thing to live, isn't that a fool's dream?

Shen Mingyuan was very sad and angry, but continued to insist and took a handful of his own melon seeds and handed them to Shen Changan. : "Dad, if you taste the melon seeds I made, you will believe that what I said is true. What's wrong with setting up a stall? I rely on my own ability to make money, neither steal nor rob, and do it right. , as long as you work hard, you will definitely get ahead, you believe me."

How could Shen Changan believe in Shen Mingyuan, and when he heard the other party's naive and funny thoughts, he became even more angry, he pushed Shen Mingyuan's hand away, and cursed, "I want to believe in your size, you're just mad at me, from the wood factory. If you don't cherish your work, how come so many people don't need you? It must be that you didn't work hard and failed to meet the boss's requirements, and you were fired. I don't know how to reflect on it now. It's not a proper job to sell this kind of thing. I'll let you do it. I smashed you all."

While talking, he kicked and smashed Shen Mingyuan's booth, overturning his two full baskets of melon seeds to the ground, and the melon seeds scattered all over the floor.

Shen Mingyuan's eyes instantly turned red, and he desperately went to pick up the sunflower seeds on the ground, but the number of sunflower seeds was too many, and he couldn't finish picking them up.

Shen Changan got angry, and when he left, he warned: "If you don't do the job I found for you well, don't come to me again in the future, I don't have the ability to arrange another one for you, or you give up this speculation. , go back to the wood factory to apologize, maybe people can still use you, if you continue to set up a stall, then your child is really hopeless, and sooner or later you will become a moth in society."

When he left, he was still depressed, why he had suffered so much in his life and gave birth to a useless son.

If it is a girl, she can barely live with an in-law's family, and a boy needs to marry a wife and have children to start a family and carry the burden of the family.

Moreover, Shen Mingyuan is much worse than a healthy person. He is physically disabled, and he still thinks about not working hard to change his destiny, always thinking about opportunistic things, and it will never get better.

Shen Mingyuan waited until Shen Changan left, and stared blankly at the ground, not knowing when he would be able to pick up the melon seeds. At this moment, his heart finally collapsed, and he couldn't help sitting on the ground crying loudly.

***

Chen Yuan suddenly received news from the publishing house that she had discussed publishing her own English book before, but suddenly because of the change of editor-in-chief, she was stillborn and had no results.

She is at ease with this incident, and is not particularly disappointed, but if it cannot be published, parents of students who have been looking forward to English books for a long time will be very disappointed to learn about this, and they do not like the style of publishing houses that go back on their word. .

After many inquiries, the new leader of Wucheng Literature Publishing House held a meeting with employees in the office as soon as he arrived, and published a book this year.

The name of the new editor-in-chief is Jiang Lili, a middle-aged woman of thirty-seven or eighteen years old. She threw it on the conference table impatiently at the first glance of Chen Yuan's final draft, and laughed at the editors.

"Can this kind of thing pass the audit? How do you all do things?"

The editor who recommended Chen Yuan's book before is named Fang Cuiping, a parent of a student at Wucheng Primary School. She has been following up on the previous publications. After reading what Chen Yuan wrote, she felt that this teaching method would definitely work. It was welcomed by the parents, and after discussing with the previous old leaders, I got a reply that could be published.

But I didn't expect that the old leader suddenly fell ill, and now he has a new leader, and this thing can't go on.

Fang Cuiping said seriously: "Editor-in-chief, this book is more innovative than the traditional textbook teaching method, and it is more acceptable to children. There are indeed children who have tried the above learning methods, which can cultivate their interest in learning, and it is effective. Improve your grades, it can be said that there is no pain-free learning method at all, you should not look carefully, I suggest you really think about it again.”

All the children in Chen Yuan's cram school have not only improved their English scores, but also their math scores. Those who suspected her game teaching was unreliable before, now all shut up. This method does have practical cases. Otherwise, Fang Cuiping wouldn't be so interested in Chen Yuan. If it wasn't for not accepting people, she would definitely send her children to Chen Yuan's house to make up lessons.

Jiang Lili was disdainful when she heard Fang Cuiru's bragging, but she didn't believe it at all: "This book is a misunderstanding, if it is published, our publishing house will probably lose face, and you brag about that. Author, I wonder if you took her money?"

Fang Cui's face was ashen: "Editor-in-chief, what are you talking about? I'm clear, the content of this book is already good, do I need to shoot myself in the foot?"

Jiang Lili asked sharply: "Then why do you recommend her for no benefit? I don't believe that there is no problem here. The contents of this book are all nonsense. Why is the author's resume missing? Which university did you graduate from? What major? Have you won any awards before, and have you had any famous works? If I guessed correctly, there should be none. She is just a vocational high school student, where did she get the confidence to publish a book?"

Fang Cuiping can't answer this time, because Chen Yuan's resume is not only completely irrelevant to literature, but also not outstanding enough, but if you don't really see the value of the book, she can't recommend it.

Seeing that Fang Cuiping had nothing to say this time, Jiang Lili was very proud: "Publishing a book will reduce sales. If the book can't sell and lose money, can you take the responsibility?"
