Good Man Operation Guide
Chapter 37 Ruffian (2) (1/2)
Lin Shiheng drove the borrowed car of watermelons all the way to his destination. He looked at the sun in the sky and counted the time. He drove slowly and turned his head from time to time to look at the surrounding environment.
The city is indeed much cleaner than the county town. The clothes worn by the people walking around on the road are a bit more fashionable, and even the storefronts have a bit of a posterity.
Different from the street hawking that Liuzi imagined, Lin Shiheng found a cake shop that was less prosperous than the surrounding stores and began to discuss cooperation.
This cake shop is in a good location. Not far away is a primary school on the left and a hospital on the right. There are many people coming and going, but they only sell cakes. Although this is a city, most people these days still To be more frugal, instead of spending money to buy things like cakes that will disappear once you eat them, you might as well save money to buy new clothes, or buy stationery and books for your children.
Therefore, although the shop owner specially decorated the store to be gorgeous and exquisite, and the beautiful cakes were placed in glass display cases to attract the attention of passers-by, there were still not many people coming to buy and eat. At most, there were only children celebrating birthdays or happy events at home. Only then did someone come and buy a small piece to take home to eat.
When Lin Shiheng noticed this store, the owner was doing cleaning work in the store with a sad face. Although it was obvious that he was in a very depressed mood, his hands kept moving, not only wiping the surrounding area clean, but also mopping the floor carefully. Several times.
He stopped the car, opened the door and walked into the store. The store owner was stunned when he looked up and saw him. Although Lin Shiheng washed his hair today, he was still wearing the same shabby clothes he often wore before. This is the inner city, almost I don’t see people wearing patched clothes like this anymore.
The shop owner was stunned for only a moment, then quickly put away the surprise on his face, put down the mop in his hand and asked, "Want to buy a cake?"
He originally just asked casually. After all, dressed like this, he didn't look like he had money to buy a cake. Unexpectedly, this guest actually agreed.
"Yes, I'll buy two, one big and one small."
Lin Shiheng smiled kindly at him, stood in front of the glass cabinet, watched the shop owner take out two cakes in the direction of his fingers, and asked thoughtfully, "Would you like to pack it?"
"The big ones are packed away, and the small ones are eaten here."
"Hey! Okay!"
A rare smile appeared on the shop owner's gloomy face. For him, it would be good to have a business now.
When he quickly laid out the small cake and put it on a fork, and then immersed himself in packing the big cake, Lin Shiheng went over and gave the money, took a bite of the small cake, and immediately exclaimed, "Boss, your cake is good, what do you think?" Is business not doing well?”
As soon as he mentioned this, the smile on the boss's face fell again, and he sighed in distress, "I guess he thought the price was too high. When I opened the store, I thought I was the only cake shop in the city, so the business would be sure to happen." Yes, I rented such a good store to see the store, but the result is like this. "
Lin Shiheng took another bite of cake, leaned against the glass cabinet, and chatted, "Isn't the rent in this place cheap?"
"yes."
The boss's face became even more worried, "It's a lot of money a month. I thought the cake shop must be doing well, so I rented it for half a year and hired two clerks. As a result, the loss was like this, the clerk resigned, and the rent couldn't be paid." Retreat, you can only hold on like this.”
"It doesn't make sense. Your cake tastes delicious to me. How could they not like it?"
"I can't figure it out. I used to work in Magic City, and the cake shop there was very good. I worked as an apprentice there for two years before I learned the craft and came back to open a shop. Who knew..."
The boss couldn't help but sigh again. He was also dazzled by the popularity of the Modu Cake Shop. He was working well there, but he thought that no one in his hometown had opened a cake shop. This was a There was a market that no one had explored, so I happily returned to my hometown with money. In order to open this cake shop, I could say that I spent all my money and borrowed a lot from relatives. I originally vowed to open a good shop and return home in glory, but it didn't work. There is no basis left for wanting to compensate directly.
"How about this, boss, I have sold things in our place and know how to sell them. I will help you sell cakes and you will give me a commission. For every cake sold, you will give me 1% of the price of the cake. How about it?"
When Lin Shiheng said this, the boss didn't react for a long time. How could they have turned into helping him sell things while they were having a good chat?
He was hesitant to agree. After all, he knew about selling things for a commission, but this stranger made such a request in a good manner...
Seeing that he didn't speak, Lin Shiheng raised his eyebrows and smiled on his handsome face, "Boss, think about it, I don't want a salary. Although you have to pay me for selling cakes, you must earn more. Even if I can’t sell it, you have nothing to lose.”
The boss was gradually convinced.
Yes, he has nothing to lose.
"That's fine, just give it a try, but how do you prove that you asked someone else to buy it?"
Lin Shiheng smiled and said, "If the person who comes asks for a piece of watermelon, that's the guest I've invited, no problem."
After he said this, the boss noticed the watermelon parked outside, "Okay, that's settled."
"Okay, I'm going out to find customers now. Could you please help me look at the car, boss?"
The boss was also a warm-hearted person. He nodded and agreed, watching Lin Shiheng leave his store with the big packaged cake.
Although he agreed, the boss still didn't quite believe that this man in patched clothes could help him find customers.
If he could find customers, his store wouldn't be so depressed.
But now it’s like this, a dead horse is treated as a living horse doctor.
Lu Ming, from Class 1, Grade 5, was walking on his way to school with his schoolbag on his back. Next to him were his two cousins. He was bragging to them that he went to the zoo during the vacation, not to mention how much fun it was.
"There are giraffes, cranes, and tigers. The tiger's mouth is so big that it can swallow a whole hippopotamus!"
"Liar!"
A cousin who was the same age as Lu Ming immediately questioned, "My aunt and uncle are helping us at home during the holidays. How could you go to the zoo without them?"
"I'm going alone, can't I?"
"Liar, you are a liar. I have been to the zoo. A tiger's mouth cannot swallow a hippopotamus. The hippopotamus is bigger than the tiger. How can it be swallowed? And your parents will not give you money to go to the zoo. Your family has no money at all.”
"Okay, you're bragging again, I'm going to tell others so they don't believe you next time."
Lu Ming became anxious all of a sudden. Seeing his two cousins singing and running away, he immediately became anxious, "No!! I don't allow it! Come back!"
He ran two steps before catching up, and almost didn't cry. He was about to grit his teeth and continue running forward, when he suddenly heard a sound coming from the alley around the corner.
Lu Ming was startled and could no longer care about chasing his cousin. He walked over curiously and saw a man wearing shabby clothes sitting on the ground. When he saw him, he raised his head and said, "Kid, can you help me up?" Get up, my foot is sprained and I won’t be able to move for a while.”
"Oh, okay, I'll come right away."
Nowadays, everyone's culture is to help each other. After hearing this, Lu Ming hurried over and helped Lin Shiheng up on the ground with difficulty. He watched him stand up against the wall and said, "Uncle, I'm leaving first."
"Wait a moment."
Lin Shiheng stopped him and asked with a smile, "Did you quarrel with your classmates just now?"
Speaking of this, Lu Ming's face turned dark again because he had done something good. "It's not my classmates, it's my cousin. They are laughing at me."
Lin Shiheng was a little surprised, "Aren't you cousins? Why do they laugh at you?"
Lu Ming lowered his head in embarrassment, "My family is poor..."
In fact, he doesn't like to talk big. It's just that his family is in a tight situation and his parents don't have much money to give him. However, his two cousins like to laugh at his family's poverty. Every time they get something good, they give it to him. He is talented and likes to talk about how poor his family is in class, which makes some people laugh at him when they see him.
Lu Ming wanted to regain his face, so he insisted on lying, but in the end he was exposed. He probably would be laughed at by a group of people again when he went to school for being a liar.
In the eyes of adults, this is just a small fight between children, but for Lu Ming, he is experiencing verbal violence every day. This can be seen from the fact that he likes to talk less and less at school. .
"I see."
Lin Shiheng took two steps forward with his hand on the wall, picked up the cake box that had been placed on the ground, and handed it to the confused Lu Ming.
"I've heard it all before. They laughed at you for never going to the zoo, right? This is for you. This is the favorite cake for people in big cities like Shanghai. It is made of nutritious milk and tastes sweet. It's soft and much more delicious than sugar. Uncle will give you a glass of iced watermelon juice. They haven't eaten it after eating the cake. You will definitely be envied by everyone."
Lu Ming held the cake box which was too big for him in a daze, looking up at the handsome man in front of him, "But this is very expensive?"
"It's quite expensive. I bought this from the cake shop on the right side of your school, but you just saved me. This is your repayment gift."
"By the way, is your cousin in the same class as you?"
When he mentioned his cousin, Lu Ming immediately became excited. "My little cousin is in the same class as me."
"There are plates and knives and forks in the packaging box. How about this? You take the cake to the class and share it with everyone. Give more to those with whom you have a good relationship, and less to those with whom you have a bad relationship. Don't give it to your little cousin. He must be greedy to see it, if he is willing to apologize to you, you can share it with him."
"Remember to say more that this is a cake from Magic City. Magic City is much better than the zoo. If there are children who still want to eat after eating it, you can ask them to buy it in that cake shop. There is an event now. Buy it. A cup of watermelon juice comes with a cake. When they go there, they will know how expensive this cake is.”
Lu Ming nodded with bright eyes. He was a child after all. He was so excited when he heard that he was going to be the envy of the whole class. He nodded quickly, "Thank you, uncle!! I'll go to school right now!"
When he arrived at school, Lu Ming followed Lin Shiheng's instructions and boasted about how precious and delicious the cake was. After everyone in the city liked it, he then asked others if they could have a bite. , personally took the plastic knife and fork and started dividing the cake.
If you have a good relationship with him, you will be given a bigger piece. If you have a bad relationship with him, you will only get a small amount no matter how much you ask for. The cousin will not give it unless he is willing to apologize.
The cake was very big, but there were many students in the class, and soon only one piece was left.
Lu Ming hurriedly refused to divide the cake. Other classmates who had eaten the cake and thought it was delicious but not satisfied asked him where he bought it. He raised his neck and was about to brag that he bought it himself, but thinking of the kind-hearted uncle, he felt His merits should not be erased.
"It was bought by a kind-hearted uncle in a cake shop. I did a good deed and helped him stand up after he fell. In order to repay me, he gave the cake to me."
As he said that, he showed off the watermelon juice to others, "He also said that the store was holding an event and bought a cake to give away watermelon juice. He also gave the watermelon juice to me. I can't share this with you. This was given to me by my kind uncle."
As he spoke, Lu Ming took a sip of the watermelon juice. It was indeed delicious.
He glanced at his classmates who were looking at him eagerly, with a proud look on his face. "It tastes so good!! This is much better than watermelon. Uncle said that buying watermelon juice alone is quite expensive!"
After distributing the delicious cakes from Shanghai, Lu Ming suddenly became the most popular person in the class.
"Is it really so delicious? Can you give me a sip? I'll take a small sip."
"Wow!!! Lu Ming, you are so awesome, you can actually do good things!"
"No wonder my grandma always says that good people are rewarded. I will do good things next time!"
"Lu Ming, just give me another bite, I still want to eat."
"No! I haven't even taken a few bites myself!"
Lu Ming carefully guarded the remaining piece of cake and sat inside. He swallowed when he thought of the sweet taste. But when he saw his cousin sitting sulkingly on the seat, he resisted eating. The desire to shed the last piece.
If my cousin doesn't apologize, he will always be jealous of him!
Some students who only ate a little bit of cake were still unsatisfied. They knew there was a cake shop before, but no one had tried it before so they didn't think about buying it. They didn't expect it tasted so good.
When school is over, be sure to ask your parents to take them to buy them.
By the way, there’s also that really nice-looking watermelon juice.
The school bell rang, and in the cake shop, the boss opened the cake list as usual, but within ten minutes, the door was pushed open.
A fashionably dressed parent walked in with his child, "Boss, do you get watermelon juice for every cake you buy?"
The boss was stunned and quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes."
He was surprised and happy, but before he could recover, two pairs of parents walked in from the door, "Boss, are you selling cakes here? Do you give me watermelon juice with your purchase?"
More and more people came in. The boss had fired his employees before and now he was all alone. In addition, the number of cakes was not enough, so he could only ask the parents to make a decision first, and then come and get it when he was ready.
Now is the peak period when children are out of school. The fact that the cake shop is full of people naturally attracts the attention of other children.
"Mom, let's go in and have a look too!!"
"Dad, what's going on over there? Let's go take a look, okay?"
There are children who are being held by their parents when they come out. When they see someone they know, they show off for a while, "My mother ordered a cake for me and watermelon juice. That's from Shanghai. Does Shanghai know that? The people there are special." I love eating cakes, they are so delicious!”
As soon as these words came out, a group of children also became interested. Such older children like to compare with their peers. In addition, when they heard that there was a fresh and delicious cake from the magic city, they immediately begged their parents anxiously for it. Go in and take a look.
In such a short period of time, the boss actually took more than 20 orders at once, and there were still many people outside squeezing to come in. Originally, they were just pestered by their children to come to the cake shop to see what was so popular. When the parents saw so many people wanting to leave, their children were so anxious that they pulled their arms and insisted on getting in, for fear that all the delicious cakes would be bought by others.
For a time, the boss was too weak to collect money and keep accounts.
While he was happy, he was also curious in his heart.
How did that person do it?
Could it be that his watermelon juice is really delicious?
