Chapter 33 Responsible for appearance
Chapter 34 Responsible for appearance
The factory Master Lan was talking about was a machinery factory with many men and few women. There are several clothing factories nearby, with many female employees and few male employees.
Jin Yao parked the car at a point where employees must pass by when commuting to and from get off work, and asked Hu Xiangnan and Master Lan to help pack the watermelons. They were all three in a bag, one big watermelon with two small ones.
The sign is placed in a conspicuous place: Grow and sell by yourself, five yuan a bag, no money if it is not sweet.
It was working time now, and the surrounding area was very quiet. When it was almost time to get off work, various food carts appeared around them.
“It’s half an hour before we get off work. Will our big car get in the way if it’s standing here?” Master Lan and the others were a little worried about the huge thing in front of them.
Jin Yao found a new place and placed the cart with its back against a flower bed, which seemed to take up significantly less space.
“Is your watermelon sweet? Is it really five yuan a bag?” A man pushing a food cart glanced at their watermelons and asked.
"of course it's true."
“Can I buy it for zero? I just want to buy one.”
"Of course, it's 20 cents a pound, do you want a bigger one or a smaller one." In business, there is no reason to extrapolate.
"Forget it, let's just get a bag. It's cheaper in total." The man took a look and thought to himself that 20 cents per pound, a watermelon costs 3 yuan. It happened to be hot recently, so he bought two more to take home for his wife. .
"okay."
After selling a bag of watermelons, Jin Yao squinted her eyes and looked at Hu Xiangnan.
Good guy, she just realized now that the other person must be good-looking, good-looking, and must be good-looking. She waved to him: "Hu Xiangnan, come here."
Hu Xiangnan always felt that Jin Yao's eyes had evil intentions: "Is something wrong?"
She patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Brother, please help me."
Hu Xiangnan didn't like the tone of Jin Yao's words. When he heard her calling him "buddy," the hairs all over his body stood up.
"If you see that seat, when a female employee comes over, you can come up and say, taste the watermelon for free. If it's not sweet, you don't have to pay for it, okay?" Of course Jin Yao has her own plan, she has to be here Within hours, he sold this cart of watermelons.
Hu Xiangnan's face darkened, and he started to leave: "I won't go."
Let him face the crowd directly and he will not do it.
"Whatever you want, let's put it this way. Once this cart of watermelons is sold, you won't owe our family anything. You can leave if you want and stay if you want. How about that?" Jin Yao looked at his back and narrowed her eyes.
Hu Xiangnan turned around and looked at Jin Yao angrily: "I can do any other job, but not this one."
"Okay, then you are responsible for collecting the money, and I will be responsible for shouting." Jin Yao smiled like a fox.
Thinking of the malicious looks those middle-aged men cast on her face, he felt unhappy: "It's just this once."
Jin Yao nodded: "Yeah."
As soon as 5:30 arrived, a large number of people poured out of several nearby factories. Hu Xiangnan stood on a commanding height somewhere with a loud voice that made Jin Yao wonder if he was an instructor-level figure in the army. Such a voice could be completely unnecessary. Amplifier.
“Watermelons cost five yuan a bag, and there are three big watermelons in a bag. If it’s not sweet, it’s free.” Hu Xiangnan’s voice was a little hard at first, with no sense of rhythm at all. After shouting a few times, he got into the mood.
Jin Yao glanced at it and raised the corner of her mouth slightly. She really didn't expect that she could pick up a free spokesperson just by picking it up.
As the flow of people approached, the conspicuous carts and watermelons on the roadside naturally became the highlights among the crowd.
“Five yuan a bag, it’s cheap, come here.” They are all factory workers, they have a lot of money to make ends meet, and they are more generous with food.
“Here comes a bag.”
“Here are two bags.”
The bustling crowd gathered around, Jin Yao was busy collecting money, and Master Lan was busy bringing watermelon to others. Not far away, Hu Xiangnan was surrounded by female workers. They all laughed at him: "It's really not sweet and doesn't cost money. Give us a piece to try."
“What if you find out after you get home that it’s not sweet? Why don’t you leave your address and we’ll return it to you later?”
“Yes, handsome guy, please leave me your home address.”
Hu Xiangnan blushed: "That's not okay. If I give you the land, my wife will beat me."
As he spoke, he glanced towards Jin Yao.
These female employees were just teasing him. Of course they would do what they should do when they see someone has a wife.
“This is it, this is it.” A fat lady called a group of sisters over.
Hu Xiangnan took a look and thought, Oh no, he’s not here to cause trouble.
“Sister, there’s something wrong.”
“Is your watermelon priced at five yuan a bag?”
"yes."
“A bag of three large watermelons?”
"Yes."
“Sisters, this is it.” The fat eldest sister called out with her fat hand: “Sisters, stop the crowd. We want the remaining watermelons and we can’t let them sell them again.”
“Yes, Director.”
Hu Xiangnan was a little confused: "Sister, what are you doing?"
The fat eldest sister didn’t even look at him: “I’ll talk to your wife.”
As he said that, he squeezed towards Jin Yao, pushing people out while squeezing: "No more selling, no more selling, everyone go back."
Jin Yao frowned and raised his head to meet a pair of smiling eyes.
“Sister, I just tasted your watermelon, it’s very sweet. I’ll take all the watermelon you have left.”
“Sister, do you think you can have them all?” Jin Yao repeated.
“Yes, the factory has just completed a batch of orders, and I want to reward everyone. The weather has been hot recently, so I thought it would be best to reward everyone with a bag of watermelon.” The fat lady is the director of the Xiuxiu Garment Factory not far away.
Upon hearing this, Jin Yao realized that it was indeed a big deal: "Sister, how many people are there in your factory and how many bags do you need? Let me see if I have enough here."
The fat eldest sister took a look and said, "I want three hundred bags. Just two watermelons per bag, not three. Please give me a price."
Finally sold it to the fat lady for three yuan a bag.
After filling three hundred bags, there were still a few large watermelons left. Jin Yao gave them to the fat eldest sister. The fat eldest sister laughed so hard that she couldn’t even see her teeth.
Seeing that a cart of watermelons that had just been returned was all empty within a short time, Master Lan wiped his eyes and saw that they were all gone.
Isn’t this a good deal? In less than a day, all 10,000 kilograms of melons were sold.
"Master, let's go. Let's go find a better place to eat. I haven't eaten well since last night and I'm almost hungry." The watermelons are gone. Of course, we have to have a delicious meal and then find a place. Take a break and count the money in your pocket.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Master Lan really had a different view of Jin Yao now. She looked like a little girl, and she really had a way of doing business.
On the way here, he was worried that the carload of watermelons would rot in the car, and wondered whether he would have enough money for the fare.
