Chapter 123 Business
Two days later, June 10th, the 26th day of the lunar month, everything is appropriate, and the food shop also chose to open on this day. Yi Huan still advertised in the newspaper first. Now she has opened a radio station, and she has the first time to get the moon. She also advertised on the radio station, "Food shop, Food shop, a food paradise for diners. Spicy, salty, sweet, sour, tender and fragrant, all in the food shop. The food shop has good quality and low price, three days of opening, 20% off..."
The advertisement was well-produced, attracting a large number of ordinary people who came to try it. When they entered the store, they found that the decoration was simple and decorated. They used a lot of attractive color blocks, which gave people a refreshing feeling. The recipe was also very simple, including fried fish, fried chicken nuggets, fries, hamburgers and other Western foods, and the drinks included juice and Sprite. The price is affordable, dine-in or take-out, and they are all things that foreigners love to eat, which makes those who pursue fashion and new style feel that the "food shop" is very fashionable.
Looking at the guests who were flocking to him, Zeng Shaowei joked: "Yuhong, you are rich."
Zheng Yuhong glanced at her sideways, "It seems like you don't have a share in the store."
"That's also you take the big head, I take the small head. No, no, you have to play mahjong. If you don't win some money, I feel uncomfortable and I am strongly jealous." Zeng Shaowei joked.
Zheng Yuhong spat lightly, "You mahjong spirit, just talk about it if you want to play mahjong, what excuses are you looking for."
"You lose more than you win or not when playing mahjong, and you still love playing so much. I really admire you." Yi Huan smiled helplessly.
"I used to lose ten against ten, but now I lose nine against ten, so I'm making progress!" Zeng Shaowei said with a smile.
This is also called progress?
Yi Huan and Zheng Yuhong rolled their eyes speechlessly. There was no mahjong in the store, so the four of them took a car and returned to Zeng Shaowei's house. While playing mahjong, Lan Yang came back and came to greet them through the small hall, "Darling, I'm back."
Zeng Shaowei smiled and introduced to him, "Darling, this is my other good friend Lan Lan, Huang Lan."
"Hello, Miss Huang." Lan Yang said with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Lan." Huang Lan smiled and nodded. Lan Yang went abroad in her early years, and she was forced to leave Jizhou again and did not know each other.
"Darling, how are you lucky today?" Lan Yang asked standing behind Huang Lan.
Zeng Shaowei ordered the other three, "Three eat one, the three of them bully me."
"You are the master. If you don't bully you, who will you bully?" Yi Huan and Zheng Yuhong said with a smile at the same time.
Zeng Shaowei hummed twice, "Darling, go change your clothes and come and help me."
"Okay." Lan Yang and the other two smiled, left the hall and went to change their clothes.
Although Huang Lan has returned, she cannot be inseparable like she was in school. In addition to being in charge of the food shop, Yi Huan also wants to be a broadcaster. Zheng Yuhong is guarding the food shop. Zeng Shaowei has free time, so she takes Huang Lan to various tea parties, dinner parties, and card games. She has made friends with many officials, and has some information from the wives.
Huang Lan told Chen Huiping this information. Although Chen Huiping arrived in Jizhou City a few days earlier than Huang Lan, there was no progress. She was full of jealousy about Huang Lan collecting information so quickly, "You are quite capable."
"I can get information through the wives of those officials. Can I leave Yan Zixue?" Huang Lan asked tentatively.
Chen Huiping said with a stern face: "Shan Feng, are you joking? These irrelevant information will not help us in major events."
"The Yan family is so well-managed, and its military power is also very strong. Does the Zhang army still have a chance to make a comeback?" Huang Lan felt that they were doing useless work. Now Zhang army dared not even make a name, and had already shrunk to the outside world. Can they snatch Jizhou from the powerful Chinese New Army?
"So, do you want to be a traitor?" Chen Huiping's voice was sharp.
"I didn't." Huang Lan lowered her head.
"No, just do your business well and stop saying those bastards." Chen Huiping said coldly.
Although intelligence personnel were in the north, they were generally peaceful, and the people lived and worked in peace and prosperity, showing a prosperous scene; a large march broke out in the south, and people from all walks of life put forward slogans of boycotting Japanese goods and supporting domestic goods; the southern Guangdong army suppressed bloody suppression, killing and injuring dozens of people in the march, causing an uproar across the country.
Out of righteous indignation, Yi Huan wrote a commentary article in the newspaper, "...How cruel and tyrannical!... They are heroes who see the situation clearly, distinguish right from wrong, and have a strong patriotic enthusiasm... Real warriors dare to face the bleak life and dare to face the blood... Those who survive will vaguely see the faint hope in the light red blood; real warriors will move forward even more vigorously."
This article was praised by progressive people, and then the article "I Have a Dream" written by Yi Huan several years ago was dug out and published in major newspapers, "...I have a dream. One day, I dream of becoming a scientist, benefiting mankind, and making the motherland prosperous; one day, I dream of becoming a doctor, reducing pain for patients, saving lives and helping the wounded; one day, I dream of becoming a writer, writing about the prosperity and prosperity of a lifetime; one day, I dream of becoming a painter, and depicting the beautiful rivers and mountains of the motherland.
I have a dream, dreaming that one day, there is no noise or dispute in the world, and there is joy and peace everywhere..."
Yi Huan was so famous because of this. She was Yan Zihui's fiancée, and was regarded as speaking for Yan Zihui. It made people feel that the Chinese New Army is the hope of China. Many aspiring young people rushed to Jizhou City thousands of miles away to sign up for the army. Progressive people in southern Guangdong were all on the wanted list of warlords, those who died, those who were injured, and those who were imprisoned. The political atmosphere in southern Guangdong was extremely severe. Scholars, writers and celebrities who were not wanted could not stand this harsh environment and went north to surrender to the Northern Chinese government.
The northern part of China was a prosperous scene, which made Yan Geng Jun happy and praised him, "Xiao Qi, your fiancée has good luck in his husband."
Yan Zi smiled and replied, "My vision is good."
Mrs. Yan was unhappy, "A woman should be content with herself and should not show off like this, and become a topic of other people's attention."
Yan Zihui took responsibility, "If I hadn't found a suitable person to write, I wouldn't want her to show off. It's all for the great cause of military and national affairs."
Under Yan Zihui's deception, Mrs. Yan felt that Yi Huan was wronged. So she prepared a gift and asked Yan Zi to give it back to Yi Huan. After hearing the explanation, Yi Huan asked uneasily: "Have I caused you trouble?"
"You didn't cause trouble, but helped a lot. The Chinese New Army has a good reputation now, and the people's will, and they will win." Yan Zi smiled and pecked her lips lightly, "If you have such a wife, what else can you ask for?"
Yi’s father and mother didn’t care about that much and scolded Yi Huan, “No editorials are allowed to be written in the future.”
Of course, there are benefits and disadvantages. Not only the young and middle-aged people who come to join the northern government of China, but also some young and old, women and children. Jizhou City is not a paradise, and the northern government does not have that great ability to raise everyone. Those young men who failed to join the army can still find jobs to sell laborers in Jizhou City, and receive a meager salary, and can barely make a living and have a hard time. Women and the elderly and the weak are miserable. They can only survive in wooden sheds built by the government outside the city, relying on two meals of daily relief porridge. Some women cannot survive, and will go to various high and low-end brothels and become firework women.
The president of the Women's Association found Yi Huan, "Miss Yi Si, although it is summer now, autumn and winter will soon arrive. Those people who fled live in wooden sheds with air leakage everywhere. If their clothes are too thin, they are afraid they can't get through it. They think about spending money and doing their best to donate a batch of winter clothes to protect the cold."
"I pledge one thousand pieces." Yi Huan agreed readily.
"Miss Yi is kind and righteous." The president praised, and then said: "This cotton coat needs someone to make. Do you think you are looking for those women to make? You don't have to count the wages, just have three full meals a day."
"It is natural that I have to pay for them to work." Yi Huanxiao, maybe he could open a clothing factory.
Not only are women looking for people to donate money and supplies to help these refugees who went north, and the tycoons of the chamber of commerce in Jizhou City, they also set up relief clubs and organized stage performances to raise disaster funds, and famous actors in the drama industry came to perform free charity performances. Although Yi's father and Yi Ou were not leaders, they were famous wealthy businessmen in Jizhou City after all, so this charity performance was naturally to be present.
Although Yi Huan learned to sing a few plays to make Yi's mother happy, she didn't like to watch plays. Anyway, she had three sisters-in-law accompanying her, so she didn't go with her. She went to Zeng Shaowei, Zheng Yuhong and Huang Lan talked about opening a clothing factory. Zeng Shaowei said without hesitation: "I'll pay 5,000 yuan."
Zheng Yuhong thought about it and said, "The food shop is doing well, I want to open a branch in Jida."
"Have you found a suitable store?" Yi Huan had wanted to open near the school. These foreign fast foods are the most popular among students.
"I like a store, but it's a little smaller. I can only do takeout and can't dine in. You can go and have a look another day." Zheng Yuhong frowned.
"Let's go and have a look tomorrow." Yi Huan smiled, "Lanlan, clothing factory, what do you think?"
Huang Lan said, "I can take out two thousand yuan." He refused once. If he refused again, I was afraid that Yi Huan would not think about her in the future. Moreover, Yan Zixue could not wait to bring her into the door. After Yi Huan knew about it, she would definitely be angry and alienate her. If she opened a clothing factory together, it would be difficult to break it.
Yi Huan took out 6,000 yuan. The business of this clothing factory was her, Zeng Shaowei and Huang Lan. The next day, Yi Huan, Zeng Shaowei and Zheng Yuhong went to see the small shop. Zeng Shaowei shook his head, "This shop is too small and inappropriate."
"I thought it was OK, so I didn't need to build a large stove. I had three small stoves, and the space came out. Then I took out the compartment and put five tables on it. Most of the students like to take out, and five tables were only enough." Yi Huan looked at it and planned it.
So the small shop was rented out. Yi's father gave it to Yi Huan, who had lived in the yard where Xiang's family lived. Yi Huan did not rent it out. After repairing it, he used it as a clothing factory. He contacted the cotton cloth factory and bought the fabric and cotton wool. Yi Huan started recruiting workers and asked the housekeeper to go to the shanty town outside the city to recruit those diligent women. As a result, at least a hundred people came that day.
"Why are so many people coming?" Zeng Shaowei exclaimed.
"Yes, I only plan to have thirty people." Yi Huan frowned in difficulty. Looking at the women's begging eyes full of hope, she couldn't bear to refuse.
"The food shop branch also wants to recruit people." Zeng Shaowei reminded her.
"Then there can only be six more." Yi Huan said with a rubbing of his forehead.
"It's better to have six more." Zeng Shaowei smiled.
"That's right, let's do it first." Yi Huan was no longer worried. He helped some of them first, and then found a way to help another part of them later.
Yi Huan and Zeng Shaowei discussed carefully screening these women. Those who were too old and too young were not hired. "One person gave them a piece of ocean, so it was hard for them to go this trip."
The accountant acted according to his words and actions. The eyes of the elderly and children turned red. Several people even knelt down on the spot, "Thank you, Miss, thank you, Miss." Seeing that the work was not done, there was still money to take it. It was a surprise that you could buy dozens of kilograms of coarse grains with a piece of ocean.
They left happily.
The remaining eyes were too flexible. They screened out the scattered eyes and gave them a piece of ocean and sent them away. They selected Zhou Zheng from the last group of people, and left the thirty-six people with clear eyes. The remaining dozens of people gave two oceans first, "A month later, you will come here again, and there will be other arrangements."
The women were very happy, and those who were selected were even more happy. The boss was in a good mood and had hope for life. A happy smile appeared on their withered faces. It was worth noting that they stayed away from their hometown and came to the north.
"You six are not working in the clothing factory, they are working in the food workshop, so they will stand aside first." Yi Huan pointed to the six young women who were wearing patched clothes but washed very cleanly.
The six people obediently retreated to the corner, and Yi Huan pointed at the three older women, "You three are temporarily group leaders, and each of you will select nine group members."
After arranging the staff, the fabric and cotton wool were also sent over, and the thirty people began to sew cotton coats. Yi Huan handed the six young women to Zheng Yuhong, "Your branch staff has found it for you."
"I'm working hard, thank you." Zheng Yuhong smiled.
"You're welcome." Yi Huan smiled.
In mid-July, Huang Lan could not beat Yan Zixue, so she swallowed her anger and entered the Yan family's door and became Yan Zixue's fifth concubine. Wu Yamei did not make things difficult for Huang Lan, so she took the tea cup and took a sip of tea, "Salute to the Fourth Master in the future."
"Yes." Huang Lan responded with his eyebrows down and his eyes calmly, feeling sad.
Yi Huan and the other two didn't know that Huang Lan was Yan Zixue's concubine for the time being. Zeng Shaowei couldn't contact her. When he said to Yi Huan, Zheng Yuhong, "I don't know where Lan Lan went?" As soon as she entered the door, not only did Wu Yamei stare at her tightly, but the other three concubines also stared at her, and also squeezed her, making it impossible for her to go out. In the bed, the information collected from Yan Zixue could only be transmitted through Yaer.
