Li Fan continued: "The old man is fishing wild fish, should it be easy to sell?"
The old man shook his head and said, "It depends on luck. Sometimes it can be sold, sometimes it can't be sold. ℡Bov Luo v Xiao ℡ said that there are more people selling fish in our town, and it is often not sold. thing."
Li Fan nodded. In the nearby villages, there should be many people who often fish like the old man. There are more people who fish, and there are also more people who sell fish. The whole town is not big, and the demand for fish will not be too high. In addition, there are fish dealers and fish sellers, like the old man. For private sellers, it’s normal that they can’t sell fish.
Fortunately, the town is located on the main traffic road, and there are not many business travelers. Some business travelers who pass by, who are not far away, are likely to buy fish in the hands of fishermen like the old man.
Those business travelers know that the fish in the hands of fishermen like the old man is truly wild fish, and it is almost impossible to buy in the market.
Therefore, when they pass by, if it is convenient, they will buy some fish to take away.
Therefore, fishermen like the old man usually sell fish on the side of the road outside the town when they sell fish. If you are lucky, it won't be long before someone buys it.
If you are unlucky, you may not be able to sell it after waiting for a few hours. In the end, you can only take it home and feed it, and wait until the next time to sell it.
If you toss twice more, you can only eat it yourself. The wild fish caught can not withstand the toss, generally they will be dying after two or three days. Naturally, it is not easy to sell them at this time, so they can only eat them by themselves.
While Li Fan and the old man were talking, they walked side by side on the river, while the little girl hopped to the front.
"Does the old man live far away?" Li Fan asked again.
The old man seemed to be in a very good mood, and he smiled and said, "It's not far, more than a mile. The young man is not in our place, where does he come from?"
Li Fan smiled and said, "I'm from Funan, and I plan to stay in the town for one night tonight. Old man, more than a mile is not too close. Let me help you carry it for a while. I'm going to town on the right way."
The old man repeatedly said that he didn't need it, saying that he was not too courageous, he had no problem at all, and he kept thanking Li Fan.
Seeing this, Li Fan did not insist, but nodded and said, "The old man's body is indeed tough."
The old man smiled and said, "Well, the farmer, who is active every day, the body is indeed fine. The young man wants to stay in the town for one night?"
Li Fan said, "I do plan to stay for one night. My partner and I have arranged to meet in this small town. She will not arrive until tomorrow. Well, I may continue to live tomorrow."
The old man nodded and said, "It turns out that this is...this...that..."
The old man suddenly hesitated and stopped, as if he wanted to say something, and embarrassed to speak.
Li Fan smiled and said, "Does the old man want to say something?"
The old man nodded and shook his head. After hesitating for a while, he finally said: "That's it. Since the young man is going to stay in the town for one night, he must be staying in a hotel. This...this...my kid, The girl and his dad also opened a hotel on the edge of the town. This...this..."
"Oh?" Li Fan understood what the old man meant, and smiled: "It turns out that the old man's house also has a hotel. I don't know its name? Where is it? I happen to be looking for a hotel too. Since the old man's house has a hotel, I don't need to pay attention. When I went to find it, I stayed in the hotel of the old man’s house for one night. I have to thank the old man. Otherwise, I will go to the hotel specifically."
Hearing what Li Fan said, the old man was obviously joyful, but the joy flashed away, saying: "Although our town is not big, it is in an important traffic road. There are not few people coming and going. Therefore, there are many people in the town. There are many hotels. The guy doesn’t have to look for it, he should be able to see it. As for our hotel, it’s on the edge of the town, and the conditions are relatively poor. The guy doesn’t actually need to live in."
Obviously, the old man is always very contradictory. He wants to recommend Li Fan to stay in his hotel, but he seems very embarrassed. This may be related to the poor conditions of the old man's hotel.
The conditions are so bad that the old man is embarrassed to let Li Fan live.
Also, perhaps because of poor conditions, the old man’s hotel business is not good. Otherwise, the old man will not be very embarrassed, but he still wants to speak out.
The old man wants to promote such a business.
"Is the condition bad?" Li Fan remained silent. The bad condition depends on what kind of difference it was.
If the corresponding facilities are relatively rudimentary, this is nothing. Li Fan is not a picky person. If the facilities are rudimentary, it is also rudimentary.
But if the facilities are rudimentary and the environmental sanitation is still quite bad, then Li Fan will definitely not live, and it will greatly reduce his impression of the elderly.
Li Fan decided to take a look first and then talk about it.
Therefore, Li Fan said: "Older people, it doesn't matter if the conditions are worse. Let me take a look first. If I think it's okay, I will live. If I am not satisfied, I will go elsewhere."
The old man was quite pleased, and nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay, then ask the young man to take a look."
Although the old man was delighted, he did not think that Li Fan would really want to stay, because the conditions of his hotel were really poor, almost considered the worst hotel in the town.
But since Li Fan said that he could go and take a look, there would be a little hope.
Moreover, Li Fan also said that if he is not satisfied, he will not live, which will make the old man no longer have the unnatural feeling of moral kidnapping.
If Li Fan said that he would live no matter what the conditions were, the old man would not be so happy.
Because of that, even if Li Fan really stayed, it must have been reluctant to stay because it was not easy to refuse. For the elderly, this is very guilty, and it will make the elderly even more embarrassed and unnatural.
Therefore, Li Fan said that if he was not satisfied, he would not stop. On the contrary, he let the old man breathe a sigh of relief, and the whole person became natural.
In this way, even if Li Fan did not live in the end, the old man would have no regrets. He at least successfully invited Li Fan to see the house.
Later, the old man talked to Li Fan about his hotel.
From the old man’s words, Li Fan learned that the old man’s hotel had been open for nearly a year. After the old man's son returned from working outside last year, he did not go out to work for some reason.
If you don't go out to work, you have to find a livelihood. There are a lot of people coming and going in the town, and the hotel business seems to be good. The old man's son had the idea of opening a hotel.
But because of the low cost, the old man's son finally chose to rent it. A very cheap old-fashioned house on the edge of the city was then transformed into a hotel with only three rooms.
It is not very accurate to say that it is a hotel.
Perhaps it is because it is not a standard hotel, the conditions and facilities are not good, and the business has been bleak. For nearly a year, there have been almost no guests.
Fortunately, the rent was very cheap, and it barely supported it, but it was almost impossible to sustain it.
No way, even if the rent is cheap, no business is in vain.
