Second Marriage in the 1970s - Chapter 65

The movie theater opened at 12 noon. After lunch at home, the three of them set off by car. Jiahui and Meishan carried baskets of ingredients. The briquettes were in charge of Zhao Donglin.

There are also food stalls near the cinema, some pushing tricycles selling apples and oranges, and some selling rice sticks and confectionery. After arriving at the cinema, Jiahui first went to the comrades selling tickets and asked to meet them who manage the cinema. Dean.

“Are you looking for something to do with me?”

“That’s it. We want to borrow a place in your movie theater to sell some food. Is it convenient for you?”

The movie theater actually sells things, but it’s not as rich as later generations. It just sells some soft drinks. The director finds that they are vegetable baskets, pots and stoves, which is quite interesting.

“You guys are quite prepared.”

The dean is a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing glasses, not tall, very thin, and looks a little shrewd.

“It’s all about making a little money, boss, we sell food. Customers must drink water after eating. Then can you sell more bottles of soda?”

According to his usual personality, it is impossible to agree to this matter, but Jiahui and the others’ ideas aroused his curiosity. He wanted to see if he could sell the food. After thinking about it, he agreed.

“Okay, I will lend you the place, you can sell it first.”

If it sells well, movie theaters can also sell it, right?

This is called “throwing stones and asking for directions.” The dean is not a fool, but he also made a request that the place should not be soiled.

“Don’t worry, Dean, we will pay attention.”

By the way, Jiahui borrowed tables and chairs from the movie theater, and put the briquettes on the stove first, and then continued to heat the tea and eggs cooked in the soup pot. The melon seeds and peanuts were also placed on the table. As for the semi-finished chicken rice flowers, prepare a serving in advance. Guests taste.

The movie began at 12 o’clock, and around 11:40, people who watched the movie came one after another.

“Hey, there are still food for sale today?”

The location of the small booth is very obvious, and everyone can see it at a glance.

Most people who come to watch movies on weekends are couples. Those who are not couples are on the way to becoming couples. Gay men must be more generous. Seeing that lesbians are interested, they naturally want to accompany them.

No matter what the background, **** men have to be more generous if they want to chase girls.

“What’s this? Eggs?”

Everyone first became interested in tea eggs.

“This is a tea egg, boiled with tea, it tastes very fragrant, one for a dime, you can buy one if you are interested.”

Raw eggs cost six cents each. On the first day of today, Jiahui only prepared forty eggs. In addition to tea leaves, various spices and seasonings were added to the stewed soup, which can be reused.

“Let’s have two tea eggs, and the melon seeds will weigh some for us.”

Melon seeds and peanuts are all called in stores. The national retail price is unified. Jiahui sells them at a higher price than in stores. Fortunately, customers don’t care about the price difference.

After Jiahui wrapped the melon seeds and tea eggs in oil paper, the other party pointed at the chicken rice flower and asked, “What is this?”

In the 1970s, KFC had not yet entered the domestic market. Naturally, we had never seen such an exotic product as chicken rice flower.

Jiahui explained with a smile, “This is called Chicken Rice Flower, made with chicken. You can taste it and buy what you like.”

“Really? Then I will try one.”

The **** took a bite, savored it seriously, and nodded to the **** guy beside her after a few seconds.

“It tastes good, it’s fragrant, it’s chicken.”

And there is a feeling of wanting to eat after eating.

The **** man received the look of his female partner and began to inquire about the price.

“How do you sell this?”

“Two cents are one or two.”

Chicken is 80 cents a catty, two chickens weighed four catties and three taels, and the shaved meat was more than two catties, wrapped in steamed buns and made into semi-finished products and weighed three catties and six taels, that is to say, the cost of meat is three yuan. For four cents, it can sell for seven two cents, with a profit of three and seven cents.

In the case of tea eggs, one can earn at least three cents, and today’s forty eggs make a profit of one and two cents.

The profit is considerable, depending on whether it can be sold or not. If you know that the average worker in the city earns about one dollar a day’s salary.

The lesbians hesitated a little. After all, the movie ticket was only 30 cents. I had already bought tea eggs and melon seeds, and it seemed a bit of a prodigal to spend more money.

Gay men saw that she liked it, and said proudly, “If you like it, let’s buy it. It’s hard to come to see a movie. It’s not bad for two cents.”

The **** laughed, and arched his arms lightly, and then the **** became happy.

A little girl in Meixiang who had never been in love ate a mouthful of dog food, and the two comrades on the opposite side were not doing well, but her face turned red first.

“Okay, wait a few minutes, I’ll go through the oil again.”

The job of fried chicken rice crackers is Zhao Donglin. Heat the semi-hot oil pan and put the semi-finished chicken rice crackers. Two minutes later, the sound of chuckling chirps sounded. It was picked up with a bamboo drain and placed on a clean plate.

“What you just ate is the original flavor. We can also add a cumin seasoning. If you want to add it, I can add it to you.”

There were no lamb skewers in the 1970s. The taste of cumin was not known to everyone, and the lesbians seemed a little hesitant.

Jiahui said in a considerate way, “How about I split you in half, one kind of original flavor and one kind of cumin, okay?”

The **** agreed.

The first business was completed easily, and the market was open. A total of six cents were collected for two cents of chicken rice crackers, two cents of tea eggs, and two cents of melon seeds.

Meixiang was responsible for collecting the money, and she was too excited to hold the six cents in her hand.

“Sister-in-law, we really made it.”

It turns out that selling things is so easy! She was so worried at first, she was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to sell it.

“Don’t get excited, our costs have not yet been recovered, and today we have to charge at least seven yuan to make a bare return.”

Chicken, eggs, and melon seeds and peanuts are all bought with money.

When Jiahui said this, Meixiang was not excited anymore. Zhao Donglin watched and helped him from time to time. Today, he once again saw his wife’s ability. From talking about the place to doing business, he can be said to be more than capable, even without him. The same can be done.

In addition to his wife’s outstanding ability, the first time doing business also gave him a lot of shock.

The professor said that the country will open up its economy sooner or later, and the economic foundation determines the superstructure. Only when the economy is done well can the people’s living standards improve.

Just like buying and selling, there is buying and selling. Currency is circulated in the market. They first buy other people’s commodities, and after processing them themselves, others will buy their own commodities, and customers get paid through their own labor. A complete shopping chain.

Thinking about it this way, the development of the economy and how to develop the economy are both very interesting and worthy of exploration.

The first couple bought it, and then another pair came, buying melon seeds and chicken rice crackers.

By the time it was twelve o’clock, the first movie started, and they had done thirteen transactions and collected seven or eight cents. They had already returned.

Jiahui took a look at the rest. There were about ten eggs left, and there were only a couple of popcorns left. It was estimated that she would not be able to last night.

“Sister-in-law, what do we do after we buy it?”

Now there are two options, one is to go back and not sell it when it is sold out, and the other is to go back and prepare now. Jiahui thought about it, and decided to choose the first one and go back directly when it was sold out.

The preparation time is too tight now, and the first test was successful today, so I will go back to rest early and recharge my energy for tomorrow’s business.

The movie lasted for ten minutes, and a **** man who had bought chicken rice crackers came out of it.

“Comrade, do you still have that chicken rice flower? Give me the rest.”

Mixiang opened her mouth in surprise, “Huh? You want it?”

The **** smiled embarrassedly, “Yes, my wife loves to eat, she is pregnant, and she always said that she has no appetite these days, and finally wants to eat something, I must buy it for her to eat.”

It turned out to be someone who loved his wife again.

“Okay, there are more than five taels left, even if you are five taels, you give one dollar.”

Jiahui took the time to deep-fry the chicken rice crackers, took it out after three minutes of overheating the oil, and asked, “Or cumin for the original flavor?”

“Each in half.”

“Don’t eat too much at once. If you eat too much, you will get tired. I think there are fruit sellers at the intersection. Go and buy some fruit for your wife. Fruits are nutritious and tired.”

To do business, the reminder must be reminded, but although the chicken rice flower is fried, the ingredients are fresh, and it is much cleaner and hygienic than the frozen foods of later generations.

“Okay, thank you.”

The **** guys really ran out to buy fruit.

“This man loves his wife very much.”

Meixiang sighed, Jiahui smiled and said, “That is, many men still can’t marry a daughter-in-law. If you have a daughter-in-law, it doesn’t hurt, then the daughter-in-law will become someone else’s family.”

The speaker was unintentional, listening intentionally, Zhao Donglin secretly decided that he would do better to his daughter-in-law in the future. After all, his daughter-in-law is better-looking than others’ daughters-in-law, learns better than others’ daughter-in-laws, and earns more money than others’ daughters-in-law.

The opening items of the second movie were all sold out. Jiahui settled the bill. Today, it sold for more than 12 yuan in four hours, and the profit was less than six yuan.

“Well, it’s okay today, let’s go back first, and come back tomorrow.”

Before leaving, Zhao Donglin returned the borrowed tables and chairs, and Jiahui gave the remaining melon seeds and peanuts to the two comrades who sold the tickets.

After the three of them got home, Zhang Qiaoer couldn’t wait to ask about today’s results. Knowing that the things were sold out, she made six yuan, her happy eyes narrowed.

“This relationship is good, and I finally see the money back.”

Since the beginning of the provincial capital, the cost at home was too large, and the flowers costing several tens of tens of dollars to hundreds of dollars, had gone out for more than one hundred, Zhang Qiaoer was so distressed, now that he has a way to make money, he finally sees hope.

It turns out that not only is it easy to spend money in the city, it is also easy to make money.

Not only Zhang Qiaoer, but even Shen Nianru were not at ease, hearing the movement in the front yard, they came over to ask them about their situation today.

“Girl, how is business today.”

“Madam, business is pretty good.”

Jiahui told Shen Nianru about the business situation today.

“Very good, now the country’s policy is loose and the people are allowed to do business.” Shen Nianru smiled kindly, as if life didn’t give her any hardships, as if everything she had experienced was not worth mentioning.

“However, selling in the cinema may not be a long-term solution. If you make money, you will be jealous. I am afraid that there will be lawsuits afterwards.”

Jiahui naturally thought about this. Chinese people are best at following the trend. As soon as they make money, they will learn to do it. But one thing she is sure of is that other things are easy to imitate, but the chicken rice flower is not easy to imitate. Not only does she * *Rice, can also make hamburgers, chicken chops, and French fries. Others want to learn but can’t.

“It’s important to make money, and don’t forget to study. You are now college students, so you can still learn first, and you can’t put the cart before the horse.”

Shen Nianru couldn’t help but raise a few words in the end. Jiahui and Zhao Donglin readily responded, saying that it would not affect their studies.

After finishing the work at night and returning to the room, Fang Fang was already asleep. When Zhao Donglin saw Jiahui rubbing his arm, he took the initiative to give Jiahui a massage.

“Daughter-in-law, I have worked hard today, I will press your shoulders.”

“En? Yes, but you are lighter, I can’t take your hand strength.”

Zhao Donglin had a reaction when he heard the word “tap”, and Jiahui always asked him to do so.

Jiahui lay on the bed, pulling her loose hair aside. She was wearing a pure white cotton sweater. Because of the movement of her arms lying on her stomach, the butterfly bones on her back showed a beautiful outline through her clothes. A pair of small wings.

Zhao Donglin sat down next to Jiahui, and his breathing became hurried before touching her back.

The warm and strong palm pressed her back, and when she pressed it, she began to be dishonest, and Jiahui gradually became hot.

“Aren’t you talking about giving me a massage?”

Jiahui turned her head, like an anguish like a smile, her eyes shimmering, and the light was so beautiful, Zhao Donglin couldn’t help it anymore and pressed her body to block her lips.

Jiahui said “umh”, followed by the sound of clothes rubbing.

*****

The director of the movie theater came over at night. He wanted to see how the business of those people who came during the day was doing. When he went to the movie theater, he found that they had already left.

“How are they selling today?”

The comrade who sold the tickets answered truthfully, “Business is pretty good. I think many people are willing to spend money. They left after four o’clock.”

This obviously exceeded the Dean’s expectation. He originally thought these things were not very easy to sell.

“What about our soda?”

“Everyone was thirsty for drinking water after eating, and we sold more than 20 bottles of soda.”

When Jiahui persuaded the dean to persuade the dean, she said that the things they sell would drive the sales of soda in the cinema. The dean was very disapproving at the time. She didn’t expect to be expected by her. These three people are not simple, intelligent and courageous. It’s also big enough.

The dean thought for a while and said, “I think they sell melon seeds and peanuts. What else, eggs?”

Peanuts and melon seeds are easy, and eggs and other things that are yellow, it takes a lot of work to imitate.

“It’s tea eggs, and chicken rice flowers.”

The dean nodded, even though he didn’t know what tea eggs were or chicken rice flowers.

“Can we do it ourselves?”

“I don’t know this, but I ate an egg and it tasted good.”

Not long after coming here, Jiahui asked Meixiang to give two tea eggs to the two ticket sellers, and asked them to take care of them. The so-called soft-handed and soft-hearted, this kind of small employees are the easiest to deal with with small favors and small benefits.” relation”.

Don’t ask for others, as long as you don’t influence them to do business.

“They should come back tomorrow, and you will learn from them later, and we will sell them after you learn.”

Although the comrades who sold the tickets were not happy, they were forced to take over the tasks assigned by the leaders. At the same time, they felt a pity for Jiahui.

On the second day, Jiahui got up early and performed the task of recitation every morning in English. During this time, Zhao Donglin went to the market to buy the ingredients he needed today.

With the experience of the previous day, I prepared more fully today, and the amount of preparation was twice as much as yesterday. As soon as the three of them arrived at the cinema, some people were waiting inside.

“Hey, you can count it! My daughter-in-law still wants to eat the chicken rice crackers yesterday, I want to buy more today.”

It turned out to be the **** man whose daughter-in-law was pregnant yesterday.

“Yes, but it’s really not good for pregnant women to eat too much fried things, and they won’t digest them.”

Fried food has too much fat. Pregnant women need to add nutrition. If you eat too much fried food, you will not only lose nutrition but also get angry, and even get fat.

The **** smiled bitterly, “I know you kindly reminded me, but my daughter-in-law has a bad appetite and doesn’t want to eat anything. In order to get her to eat a few more bites, I have no other way.”

Jiahui nodded clearly, “Let’s do it, I will do it for you first as much as you want.”

“Come half a catty, maybe she still wants to eat at night.”

I went there for half a catty. Jiahui prepared five catties of chicken rice flowers today. She already has a hunch that today is still not enough to sell.

“By the way, do you come here at noon every day?”

“No, we only have time to come over on weekends.”

The **** seemed a little disappointed, “Well, if my daughter-in-law wants to eat, she has to wait until next week.”

Jiahui smiled. She has a good impression of the young couple, and the feeling of being held in her hand by her other half is really great.

“If you really want to eat, you can also find me. I will make it for you when I have time, and write an address for you later.”

The **** man became happy and thanked him. Zhao Donglin gave him a look at the **** man. He didn’t like any opposite **** who talked more to his wife, although he knew that his wife gave him an address because of her kind heart. Zhao Donglin There is still a bit of food in my heart.

After the **** man left with the hot chicken rice crackers, Meixiang said with emotion, “This comrade is so kind to his wife.”

Half a catty of chicken rice is enough to buy a chicken, and I am really willing.

Before that, she had only seen her elder brother treat his daughter-in-law kindly, but she didn’t expect that there is no shortage of men who treat his daughter-in-law well in this world.

“So you have to find a husband who loves yourself in the future.”

Women still have to be loved by a man in their hands to be happy. Those men who don’t understand women and don’t know how to love women will make a woman’s life very, very hard.

Mentioned this, Jiahui began to gossip about Meixiang’s campus life.

“Do you have any male classmates you like in school?”

“Oh, sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I’m going to school and I’m not talking about someone.”

Meixiang blushes every time she mentions this kind of problem. She is so embarrassed to say that the eldest brother is still next to her.

“Just ask if you like it.”

“No, everyone is a normal classmate, I didn’t think so much.”

Her first throbbing was when she was in high school, but she has never been there since. She used to feel that she was not worthy of the boy in all aspects. Now she has passed the college entrance examination through hard work and can still be a teacher in the future. Mika is more confident than before. It’s a pity that she never met him again. I don’t know if he has a partner, is he married, and whether he has also been admitted to the university.

Regardless of whether she has a chance in the future, she always hopes that he can have a good life.

Her likes are not possessive, only selfless blessings.

Today’s business is still booming. Although there are more preparations than the day before, the number of people watching the movie today is twice as much as the day before.

Many factories implement the single-off system. They work on Saturdays and rest on Sundays. When Jiahui sells for the third session, the things have been sold out. They sold for more than 26 yuan, which was a net profit of 14 yuan.

“We have earned half a month’s salary from someone in the past two days.”

The profit reached 20 yuan in two days, isn’t it just half a month’s salary?

Jiahui hissed, “Let’s keep a low profile, maybe someone will sell it next time we come.”

Meixiang said anxiously, “Really? What should I do?”

“It’s okay. They sell other items easily, but they can’t sell chicken rice flowers.”

It’s just that the items sold next time have to be changed.
