Chapter 765 New Year’s Eve
Chapter 765 New Year’s Eve
Time flies and it is the eighth day of the Lunar New Year.
Wang Tiedan returned to the city with his family.
I had just arrived home and hadn't even finished tidying up when nearby residents came to visit me, most of them asking about buying or selling their house.
Although it was agreed to be after the 15th, Wang Tiedan did not refuse.
He took out the floor plan that he had prepared long ago and hung it on the wall.
For each of the houses above, the size of the rooms and their general conditions are clearly marked.
"Tiedan, are you going to turn six adjacent yards into one big yard?" an uncle asked while looking at the map.
Wang Tiedan nodded and said, "Yes, I plan to open a door in these places, which will be much more convenient in the future."
"Oh, how many people do you need to accommodate here? I think five hundred people are enough."
"No, no. Not counting the school-age children, we can't live that crowded. About a hundred people will be enough."
"That's a lot!"
There were people from other courtyards in the crowd, and they were all extremely envious.
"Tiedan, are you only going to buy these six yards? Are you interested in the nearby yards?"
"For now, we won't have any. We can just open a nursing home in the village. It won't take such a big place."
"Then can outsiders live in this nursing home?"
"Let's see. If there are a lot of empty spaces, it's possible."
"How much does it cost?"
“It should be quite expensive!”
Wang Tiedan just laughed it off and didn't refuse directly.
With a map, it is much more convenient.
Everyone will be able to find their own house soon.
Wang Tiedan marked each and every household who was planning to sell their houses, and circled them, saying that the transactions would be conducted after the 15th.
In just one day, more than twenty households signed letters of intent.
Before the work was done, store managers came rushing over, including Lin Aiguo.
Wang Tiedan wanted everyone to have a rest, but on the second day of the Chinese New Year, some villagers from Dawang Village couldn't stand it anymore and ran into the city, and then the fast food restaurants and grocery stores started operating together.
From the third to the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, a total of six days, the grocery store's turnover was basically unchanged from the previous year, but the KFC fast food restaurant's turnover declined.
This is not surprising.
Fried chicken is not cheap and it is impossible for an average family to consume it frequently.
The same is true for clothing stores. Business is better on New Year’s Eve and the second day of the New Year. Other times are not as good as before the New Year.
Wang Tiedan didn't feel much, but the store managers were a little unhappy, including Lin Aiguo.
I thought business would always be booming, but it's getting worse day by day.
"Okay, it's New Year's Day, stop looking so sad."
Wang Tiedan comforted.
"Our business is already pretty good. The city is so small and the salary is so low. How can people come to our store every day? Even Quanjude can't sell out every day, right?"
"But it's not as good as before. I feel uncomfortable."
"We make a year's worth of profit in one day, so they should be the ones who feel unhappy!"
“It seems so~”
With Wang Tiedan's comfort, the store managers felt much more comfortable.
"Remember, making money is not important, your health is the most important! Go back and rest, don't work overtime!"
After Wang Tiedan finished speaking, he sent everyone out of the yard.
Just as he was about to go back, Sha Zhu and Xu Damao came to the door again.
Wang Tiedan looked at the two of them in surprise.
Needless to say, Xu Damao always likes to show off, wearing a big gold chain, a small watch, and a black suit.
But what’s the matter with Shazhu, he’s also wearing a suit?
"Oh, you all got rich?"
Wang Tiedan looked at the two of them and teased.
"Hey ~ Tiedan, do you feel guilty? In the whole city of Sijiu, who dares to talk about getting rich in front of you?"
"That's right. We work so hard for a whole year, but it's not as good as you for one day."
Sha Zhu and Xu Damao said together that it was impossible to say that there was no sour taste.
Wang Tiedan didn't respond and looked at Sha Zhu.
"Okay, Brother Zhuzi, your outfit is pretty good. Are you planning to have a second spring? Are you ready for a blind date?"
"Haha~"
When Xu Damao heard Wang Tiedan say this about Shazhu, he almost laughed to death.
Silly Zhu's old face turned red.
"So I can only wear blue overalls, right?"
"And a big green cotton jacket!"
"Yes, yes~"
Wang Tiedan and Xu Damao joked together.
This is also the first impression that Sha Zhu gives to outsiders.
"Tiedan, I bought this dress in your store. If you keep saying that, I'm going to return it. I bought it on the second day of the Chinese New Year and it hasn't even been seven days yet!"
"No, no, no~ Come in, come in."
Wang Tiedan hurriedly greeted him.
"That's pretty much it!"
The three of them went into the house together, chatting and laughing. Chatting was secondary, and the real thing was to wish each other a happy old age.
After the lively conversation, the three of them went to the ear room to chat.
"Tiedan, when will your next batch of electrical appliances arrive? We are all waiting to buy them." Xu Damao asked first.
"It's after the 15th. The quantity is huge this time, so we need to stock up first. It's the New Year and everything is out of stock. That's not right. I remember you bought some. Why are you buying again?"
Wang Tiedan asked.
"Hey, I've booked a yard and I'm planning to open a seafood restaurant. It's summer now, so the rooms need air conditioning and a refrigerator. One is not enough."
"I want to buy two refrigerators, too."
Xu Damao and Sha Zhu said in turn.
Wang Tiedan was not very impressed by Xu Damao opening a seafood hotel, but he was very surprised that Sha Zhu could afford to buy two refrigerators.
"Brother Zhuzi, you should be the canteen director of the steel mill now, right?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"You are not corrupt, are you? You bought a color TV and a refrigerator, which is not in line with your income."
"Hey, you look down on me, don't you?"
Before Sha Zhu finished speaking, Xu Damao hurried to help explain.
"Shazhu is now working as a chef in Yan Jiecheng's restaurant, earning over 2,000 yuan a month."
“Oh, that’s a pretty good price.”
"Yeah, otherwise, he wouldn't go."
"okay I know."
Wang Tiedan didn’t think much about it, maybe it was just the butterfly effect, it didn’t matter.
"Hey, isn't Brother Damao going to open a seafood restaurant? Instead of helping Yan Jiecheng, why don't you help Brother Damao? Given your relationship, can Brother Damao pay you less?"
"That's what I meant!"
Xu Damao said it directly, with a hint of complaint in his voice.
"Tiedan, you don't know, I've said it many times, I'll give him at least 3,000 a month, and I can also give him shares, but Shazhu just won't agree to it.
Tell me, what's so good about being with Yan Jiecheng, a stingy guy like that? Last time I met Ma Hua, he told me that Yu Li approached him privately and asked him to replace you. Is that true?"
Sha Zhu felt really embarrassed this time and nodded, unable to deny it.
Seeing this, Xu Damao became even more indignant.
"Only Ma Hua, a kid who respects his teacher, didn't agree. If it was your previous fat apprentice, he would have kicked you out long ago. Even after all this, why are you still staying in the store? Why are you enduring that?"
Wang Tiedan found it very interesting.
I didn’t expect that a similar plot in the original drama would happen again.
But it seems a little different.
Xu Damao was still chattering away.
"If you ask me, all you know is to take your apprentice to change jobs. Whether he loves you or not, what does it have to do with you?"
Sha Zhu was so embarrassed by what he said that he just retorted.
"I wouldn't go to your place even if I changed jobs. I learned Sichuan cuisine, Shandong cuisine, and Tan cuisine. Why would I go to your seafood restaurant?"
