Chapter 12 Unaccustomed
"Thank you, how many do you want?"
"I want as much as I have."
"My fish is wild fish, so there are grass carp, silver carp, and mandarin fish. You can't just pick mandarin fish."
"Don't choose, accept everything." Cheng Gang smiled, spoke calmly, and looked very reliable, "If you agree, we will settle the settlement now."
"Okay, this will save me the money to buy pots."
Liang Xiaonan naturally agrees, at the same price, whoever sells it is not a sale. Zhang Ming said that she was not her own father and second uncle, nor was she his mother-in-law, so she had no obligation to spoil him!
Zhang Ming had gone back to his office. He thought that Liang Xiaonan went to buy a pot to take away the grass carp, and kept the mandarin fish. He had been blowing under the electric fan for only two minutes. The lobby manager came to him and said that Liang Xiaonan took all the fish. Sold to Wanghulou Hotel.
"Cheng Gang set it himself, and the price is a little higher than ours." The lobby manager weighed his words. The Yuxian Restaurant is owned by the public, and Zhang Ming is the leader, and he will be transferred to it someday.
"What price did he charge?"
"Grass carp costs 1 yuan per catty, mandarin fish costs 1 yuan and 5 catties."
"Wanghulou wants to compete with public restaurants, dreaming! Cheng Gang, huh, wait and see! What kind of weather can she pick up wild fish?"
Xiaojiang is the buyer of the restaurant. Zhang Ming said to him in the morning: "Go and contact the fish farm where mandarin fish are raised. We can't point to that country girl. She is just a catcher of wild fish and cannot be trusted."
Xiaojiang asked around and said that there are mandarin fish in Yelong Lake, and the price is good, but he has to pick up the goods by himself, and the journey is a bit long.
Zhang Ming said as he walked out of the office, seeing Liang Xiaonan looking at him with a half-smile, his face was very ugly.
"Liang Xiaonan, you will regret it."
"Really?" Liang Xiaonan smiled, "Then we'll see."
Cheng Gang arranged for Dasha to take all the fish away, because Mr. Xie wanted to eat fish, and the chef had already quickly cooked a mandarin fish, so Cheng Gang only got 11 fish, 10 of which were grass carp.
The mandarin fish that Zhang Ming took plus the 11 fish from Cheng Gang got a total of 176 yuan and 50 cents.
She threw 150 yuan into the space, and the remaining 26 yuan 5 was given to Liang Xiaobei: "You take the money."
Liang Xiaobei pushed the money back, and handed it to Liang Xiaonan together with the 44 yuan for selling peaches: "Sister, you earned the money, you keep it."
Cheng just watched them give in to each other, and his two Amitabha eyes bent down again.
"Xiao Liang, come to our Wanghu Tower to have a look?"
"Okay, I'll check the place, it will be convenient for delivery in the future." Only then did Liang Xiaonan know that Cheng Gang is the manager of Wanghulou Restaurant.
Cheng Gang drove an imported pickup truck, put Liang Xiaonan's back basket in the compartment, and let the two of them get in the car. It was Liang Xiaobei's first time in a car, and Liang Xiaonan saw that he was a little nervous, so he sat with him in the back seat.
There are very few cars in Yuxian County, and there are only pickup trucks. The streets are full of donkey carts, and there are many tractors, which "chug and chug" black smoke.
Liang Xiaonan smiled and said, "Xiaobei, shall I tell you a joke about cars?"
Cheng Gang looked at her in the rearview mirror, and said, "I want to hear it too."
"A Mercedes-Benz met an old man whose tractor broke down on the road, and he enthusiastically helped him. He took a steel rope and hung it on the rear bumper to pull the tractor away. The old man made an appointment with him. The left turn signal reminds the Mercedes-Benz driver to turn on the right turn signal if he continues to drive."
"I met a BMW on the road, and the BMW passed the Mercedes-Benz with a 'swish'. The owner of the Mercedes-Benz was unconvinced and even passed my car? So the two cars started racing."
"The old man with the tractor couldn't stand it, so he frantically turned on the left turn signal and told the driver of the Mercedes-Benz that he was going too fast!"
"The traffic policeman saw it and hurriedly reported to the leader: a BMW and a Mercedes-Benz were racing, and what was even more strange was that a tractor followed closely behind with the left lane change light on. He wanted to overtake!"
After Liang Xiaonan finished speaking, Cheng Gang laughed loudly: "You are so funny."
Liang Xiaobei looked dazed, but seeing Cheng Gang laughing, he also laughed: "My sister can tell jokes, every time I laugh, my cheek hurts."
Cheng Gang glanced at him from the rearview mirror, and said to himself: Maybe you didn’t understand, and your cheek hurts from laughing?
Liang Xiaonan suddenly thought that Xiaobei probably didn't know anything about Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and turn signals, so he quickly popularized the knowledge for him. Only then did Liang Xiaobei understand what was going on, and laughed.
Wanghulou Hotel is located on the edge of Fulong Lake in the city, and it really stands by the lake. This hotel is three stories high, and the decoration is much more luxurious than Yuxian Hotel.
Because it is not meal time, there are very few customers in the store.
In the shop, she ordered a shredded pork with green peppers, a portion of roasted eggplant, and four steamed buns with white noodles, and ate them with Liang Xiaobei. Liang Xiaobei was growing up, and of the four steamed buns, Liang Xiaobei ate three. The two dishes were eaten cleanly.
Cheng Gang asked: "Is the taste of this dish okay?"
Liang Xiaobei nodded frequently: "It's delicious, it's so delicious."
The food in the restaurant is really good. Liang Xiaonan came to this place that lacks food and clothing for a while, and there is no oil in his stomach. He also nodded: "Not bad."
good? So perfunctory?
Cheng Gang paused for a moment, looking at Liang Xiaonan who didn't care, he became more and more curious, what is this girl's background, and why does she feel that these things are at most home-cooked dishes in her eyes?
"If Fulong Lake is developed, the business in this area will really improve."
Cheng just heard what Liang Xiaonan said, and said: "This place is quite lively, but the business is much worse than Yuxian Restaurant. After all, it is owned by the public, and all the officials go there to eat."
"There are also many workers in the city. If you can win them over, your business will not be bad."
Liang Xiaonan checked the time at three or four in the afternoon, and said to Cheng Gang, "I'm going back. I'll see how many peaches there are on the mountain tomorrow, and I'll bring them to you. Zhang Ming calculates at 1 yuan per catty, and you At this price."
Cheng Gang felt that "1 yuan and 1 catty is cheaper for you", and he wanted to laugh a little.
It will take two months for peaches to ripen. Now they are rare items. It costs only 1 yuan, and the estimated quantity is not much.
Cheng Gang asked Dasha to pack 5 steamed buns for their siblings and a chicken drumstick for them. Liang Xiaonan didn't want it, and pointed to the ribs and shoulder blades left over from their meat removal: "If you don't want this, give me two." Go back and make soup."
Cheng Gang naturally didn't care, and told her to pack whatever she wanted.
While Liang Xiaobei was waiting for her outside the door, Liang Xiaonan took out a peach from the space, handed it to Cheng Gang and said, "Zhang Ming took all the peaches I brought today, and I still have one in my pocket. Try it."
It’s not that Cheng Gang hasn’t eaten peaches before, he’s still greedy for a peach, but Liang Xiaonan specially gave it to him, so he accepted it bluntly: “Thank you.”
The sun was setting to the west, Liang Xiaonan and his younger brother hurried back. Walking to a small park beside the moat, Liang Xiaobei said, "Sister, I can't hold it anymore, I want to go to the bathroom."
"Let's go, there should be toilets in the park."
Now there is a fee to go to the public toilet. She originally wanted to say that she couldn’t use it in the restaurant just now, so she went out to spend money, but she didn’t say it after thinking about it, isn’t it just 1 cent!
Liang Xiaobei went to the toilet. She paid 1 cent and waited under the big tree outside the toilet.
There were very few people going to the toilet. Liang Xiaonan listened to four or five people striding past in the shade, and said as he walked: "He only has two people with him, and he lives in a courtyard in the west of the city. I have seen the surroundings. Nobody."
"He has been eating at Yuxian Restaurant for the past few days."
These people strode past Liang Xiaonan. They were all strong. Liang Xiaonan keenly felt that these people were not good stubble, and they probably had blood on their hands.
Those people also saw Liang Xiaonan, but they didn't take it seriously, she was just a silly country girl.
