Volume 5 Chapter 5 Barbecue Stalls Are Very Profitable
The hot weather at the end of July is getting stickier, and the cicadas outside the window are chirping happily.
Qin Guan squatted on the chair, buried his face in the watermelon, and was thinking about the major event in his life: making money.
When it comes to making money, Qin Guan is also scratching his head. As a man of engineering, he used to deal with excavators, rammers, and road rollers all day long.
After being reborn, I just don’t want to do this job anymore. But you can't remember the lottery numbers, and you can't speculate in stocks. What else can you do?
Others are reborn to kill the Quartet, and they are reborn themselves.
Qin Guan sighed, even if he did it all over again, he wouldn't be able to enjoy making money in an elegant and easy way.
Qin Guan spat out the watermelon seeds that had accumulated in his mouth. He pulled on a pair of flip flops and went out. He was going to the XX foundry to find his cousin, borrowing the convenience of the country, and using scrap iron to make him a skewer cart.
Coming out of the foundry, Qin Guan thought about the manpower problem again. He called Zhou Jing and Li Jian respectively from the small shop next to the factory. These two people have disappeared since they knew that they passed the college entrance examination in a thrilling way. Pursue. One was in a panic at home, eating and sleeping every day.
The other is reading yellow books at home, making up important chapters that were missed before the college entrance examination. The two heard Qin Guan's plan to set up a stall on the phone, and couldn't stay at home anymore, so the three met at the farmers' market.
The three of them held a fertilizer bag with the word urea written on it, and fought with the boss. After some bargaining, they bought two bags of charcoal with satisfaction, and wholesaled bamboo sticks with skewers.
Li Jian also made good use of his mother's second aunt's cousin's eldest niece's relationship to contact the stalls in the night market. Zhou Jing went to the entertainment room of the Veteran Cadre Bureau where his father worked, and brought a few low tables and a row of small benches.
The three of them gathered all their allowances together, and there were more than 300 yuan left, and the money for the ingredients was already there. Now everything is ready and the only thing left is to bake the car.
The cousin was very efficient, and the car was delivered in three days. Qin Guan calmly tied the tin car under the monkey-like eyes of his parents, and was ready to start work tomorrow.
This tin cart not only has a long box for grilling skewers, you can make fried noodles on it by putting down the iron plate, there is also a coal stove on the right side, and you can make fried meat skewers by putting an oil pan on it.
The modern kebab car with multi-function and full-automatic is nothing more than that.
Everything is ready and only owes the east wind.
The next day, at four o'clock in the morning, Qin Guan rode a tricycle borrowed from his mother's factory to the morning market.
Chicken, pork, and lamb are all to be bought, and garlic, peppers, onions, and potato gratin are must-order subjects. Hey, there are also wholesale cold noodle cold noodles. You can have this, and you can't lack cooking oil and seasoning.
Qin Guan rode a small tricycle and bought it all the way. The back seat of the car was full of things, and there was not much money left in his pocket.
By the time Qin Guan rode his tricycle home, it was already past seven o'clock.
He vigorously called Zhou Jing and Li Jian to wake them up, and went to help at home.
When Zhou Jing and Li Jian appeared at Qin Guan's house with the head of the chicken coop, Qin Guan had already taken out all the ingredients from the bag and put them into large basins.
Zhou Jing looked at the living room full of ingredients, and said worryingly, "Who would clean up the meat? I haven't even been in the kitchen at home." Qin Guan was quite satisfied when he heard this. As a big man who has been single for many years, In order not to eat instant noodles all year round, cooking is an essential skill.
Qin Guan shook his head triumphantly, and began to assign tasks to everyone, "Zhou Jing divides the ingredients and wears skewers, and Li Jian picks and washes vegetables in the kitchen to help me." After speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and entered the kitchen.
I saw Qin Guan put a piece of mutton on the chopping board, and saw the kitchen knife flying up and down, the flames splashing everywhere~~ A piece of the knife passed by, and the mutton was divided into small strips of equal parts, neatly stacked on the chopping board above.
Qin Guan put a pinch of the cut meat into the iron basin, and said loudly: "Work!" Zhou Jing and Li Jian started the first part of their entrepreneurial road, wearing meat skewers.
In one morning, the three of them packed hundreds of skewers and put them away one by one. As long as the vegetables are packed in the afternoon, they can start working.
After lunch, a few people packed up their business items and collapsed on Qin Guan's small bed in a crooked manner.
Qin Guan said bitterly: "How can others make money while drinking coffee? Why are the three of us so bitter?"
Li Jian answered him in a matter-of-fact tone: "Three high school graduates who can't fart, and those who do hard work are free. We are weak, and it would be great if we can set up a skewer stall. Me and other high school classmates As soon as I said it, they were almost envious."
Qin Guan silently touched a handful of noodles and cried, thinking that it was because you hadn't read the rebirth article, how many men and women were reborn and slaughtered all directions, taking younger brothers and dating beautiful women.
Go out in remote villages, do business, start a company, play stocks, and do venture capital.
Looking at myself again, setting up a small stall is as tiring as a dog, take in a younger brother, these two people still don't admit it, pick up a beautiful woman, and get rejected. Do you want to be like this?
Qin Guan turned over and got up, and a strand of hair fell down. Qin Guan found that he hadn't cut his hair since before the college entrance examination, and it was a bit long now.
Qin Guan kicked the two people on the bed a few times and said, "Go to my cousin's and get a haircut. We are also businessmen, so we must pay attention to our image."
Qin Guan's cousin, 20 years old, works as a laborer in a newly opened hair salon in the city, and is working hard to learn the latest washing, cutting and blow-drying techniques from Guangdong.
The three of them strolled to the hair salon. There was no one in the hair salon in the afternoon, and my cousin unceremoniously practiced with Qin Guan's head.
Zhou Jing and the two sat behind the chair, watching Qin Guan's scissors flying up and down, and then looking at the person sitting on the chair, he was so handsome that he almost had no friends.
The two were envious, jealous, and hated when they heard the cousin scream, "Oh, my hands are shaking." They saw Qin Guan's hair was dented, revealing his blue scalp. "
Puff~haha" The two of them instantly balanced, and Mantian Buddha really heard our wish.
The cousin frantically tried to fix it, but the busier and messier she became, she stopped when there was nowhere to fix it.
Qin Guan showed off the broken hair on his head, and the mirror showed a dog-eating head, which was so bumpy that he couldn't bear to look directly at it. The long broken hair had long since disappeared and turned into a silly round inch. Due to technical reasons There are still two pieces missing from the circle.
In an instant, a high-cold male god was turned into a turkey and two lacks.
For the rest of the time, until Qin Guan set up the stall in the night market, he couldn't stop Zhou Jing and Li Jian from laughing.
The two unloaded the meat skewers from the car, turned their heads to look at Qin Guan, "Puff~" The two took down the vegetables, turned their heads to look at Qin Guan, "Hahaha" Qin Guan didn't care about this, and rubbed the hair on his head hey Small short hair, well, summer is to be refreshing.
By the time Qin Guan lit the charcoal in the long box, put the oil pan in place, and tidied up the iron plates, it was already dark, and the lights in the night market were lit up one by one.
More and more people flock here to start their leisure life on summer nights.
Wen Mo picked up some mutton skewers and grilled them over the fire.
The newly bought mutton is fat and thin, and the mutton fat roasted by charcoal drips on the burning iron plate, splashing bursts of smoke and emitting a strong fragrance.
Within a few minutes, people gathered in front of the stall, "New stall, try it, the boss brought ten mutton, ten pork, and two lamb loins." "Hey, there are also Liangpi here? Boss eats two servings of Liangpi here." .”
The stall immediately became busy.
Qin Guan is in charge of roasting, frying, and frying, Zhou Jing is making cold noodle dishes, and Li Jian is cleaning up the stalls and delivering wine and vegetables.
As the night darkened, the business on the stalls got better and better. A few people were so busy that their feet didn't touch the ground, guests were coming and going, and when they looked up again, ready to take a breath, it was already late at night.
There were also fewer pedestrians on the street. The surrounding stalls have already started to pack up the tables and chairs, ending the day's business.
The three of them cleaned up the last table and sat down on the small stool.
Qin Guan shook the iron bucket containing beer, and filled the bottom of the bucket inside to fill three glasses. Picked up one of them and poured it.
The three drank the beer in the cup in one gulp, burped comfortably, and turned to look at the money bag on Qin Guan's waist.
Qin Guan looked around, took out the thick zero bills in his pocket, distributed them to everyone and counted them together.
According to the last statistics of the three, they collected more than 600 yuan in one night, and after deducting the cost, they made a net profit of 300 yuan.
Several people looked at the thick pile of money in front of them, and they all panted heavily with excitement. The fatigue of a busy night was swept away.
One person can earn more than 100 yuan in one night. In 1998, when the average salary was 700 to 800 yuan, they could earn it in less than a week.
Qin Guan shook his head, looking at the two people who were excited while cleaning up the stalls in front of them, what is wrong with this, and I don't know if they can earn enough money to buy what they want before the start of university this summer vacation. thing.
One is a mobile phone, and now only the new Nokia 5110 can be used to read it.
The other is a computer. I have to buy one when I go to university. The cheapest laptop costs more than 8,000 yuan. It seems that I can only save a desktop computer.
Qin Guan rode a three-wheeler, with the stars above his head, thinking about his future business, and sighed, the revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard.
