Chapter 164
It would be best to buy some Moutai and put it in the store.
Lu Hao thought.
When it comes to cigarettes, you have to buy some big brand cigarettes, rare products from other provinces.
If you have something that others don't have, you will show off.
When it was time to get off work, Lu Hao picked up some vegetables and a big watermelon, and drove back.
When he got downstairs, Huang Minghua from the canteen took the initiative to call him, "Boss Lu, we sold 16 bottles of soda today."
Lu Hao nodded.
The sales volume is a bit poor. There are many families living in the dormitory building, and only 16 bottles are sold in one day. The price is higher than other brands of soda, which may be the main reason.
The price difference of 5 cents can buy a pound of vegetables. Even if there is a possibility of winning, many people will still choose cheaper sodas, and the economic conditions of many families in the garment factory are not good.
However, one day could not explain the problem. It was more likely to be random. It would take at least a week, or even longer, to draw a conclusion. Both the supply and marketing cooperative and his own store were selling well, so he was not panicking.
Moreover, the biggest advantage of canteens is actually their wide coverage. Even if there are more than 100 supply and marketing cooperatives in the city, the coverage points are actually relatively small. However, canteens can be found in every village and every street in cities and towns.
The potential is huge.
Holding the watermelon and carrying the dishes, Lu Hao went upstairs and entered the house.
As soon as the door opened, Nini's eyes were fixed on the watermelon in his hand, "Mom, look, dad brought back a big watermelon, bigger than my belly."
She ran over and said, "Dad, come on, give me the watermelon."
"Then you have to hug her." Lu Hao gently put the watermelon in her hand.
He quickly put the dishes on the table and stood by, waiting for the girl to stop holding her and call him for help.
But Nini's face turned red. She just moved the watermelon to the kitchen and put it in the bucket. Then she hummed and moved the bucket, trying to go out. "I'll get the water, wash the watermelon, and then we'll eat the watermelon."
"Isn't it heavy?" Lu Hao asked.
The watermelon was very big, about 10 pounds. I thought this girl was going to ask him for help, but I didn't think of carrying it to the kitchen, putting it in a bucket, and then moving the bucket little by little. I thought of going to the end of the corridor to get water, but I didn't say a word.
Foodies have so much potential!
"It's time to eat soon, what kind of watermelon should we eat?" Su Min said, "Watermelons cost two cents per pound. Such a big one costs two yuan. I just ate it a few days ago. Don't always bring such expensive fruits back.
.”
The wholesale price is 14 cents, and the selling price is 2 cents. A 10-pound watermelon costs 2 yuan, which is enough to weigh two pounds of meat.
"Then I'll go get the water and soak it in water first, and then eat it after we finish eating." Nini didn't give up.
I have a slight cough, so I won’t let Su Min eat the iced fruit.
She added, "Aunt Chen just sent rice wine, and we have to reciprocate. We can't finish such a big watermelon, so we can share some with her."
Lu Hao looked at the refrigerator and asked Su Min, "Did the little widow bring rice wine again?"
"Well, she was very polite and brought a lot of rice wine. Nini and I just ate some, and there was a lot more, enough for two or three days." Su Min nodded.
"Such a lot of them will easily break if left in the refrigerator for a long time." Lu Hao said, "I'm afraid she's a little stupid."
After praising the delicious rice wine once, Chen Linjiao remembered that the ingredients for making rice wine are not expensive, but it does take some time.
Su Min rolled her eyes at him and said, "This is someone else's intention. How can you say that? I will send half of the watermelon up later. We can't finish such a big watermelon."
"Then I'll go get the water and deliver watermelon to Aunt Chen after dinner." Nini was full of motivation again.
After beating around the bush for a long time, she still wanted to eat watermelon.
This girl is really not only strong in order to eat, but also has a very flexible brain.
"Dad, help you." Lu Hao went over, picked up the bucket with one hand, and picked up Nini with the other, heading to the end of the corridor.
After receiving the water, the watermelon was soaked in it, and the rice was put on the table.
Lu Hao looked at Su Min and said, "I will give the little widow a watermelon later. Let's go out as a family to eat."
"Yeah." Su Min nodded.
She only thought that Lu Hao was talking about walking in the courtyard of the community and enjoying the breeze.
After eating, sitting for a while and cutting a small half of the watermelon, Lu Hao and Nini went upstairs together to the door of the little widow Chen Linjiao's house.
The door is closed.
"Aunt Chen, I've brought you a watermelon." Nini has the temperament of a social cow. She didn't know Chen Linjiao very well before, but after only a few days, they became very close to each other.
"Me too." Lu Hao interrupted.
On a hot day, with the door closed, and a woman, she was afraid of being cool in the room.
Not suitable for children.
The door opened, and Chen Linjiao was neatly dressed. She was eating a simple meal, just a plate of potatoes and some pickles.
"Aunt Chen, dad brought a watermelon back and cut it into half for you. It has been soaked in water and it is still cold now, but it is not as cold as the one taken out of the refrigerator. It won't hurt your stomach after eating it."
The piece of watermelon was still held by Nini.
The girl held up her belly and lifted the watermelon up. "Aunt Chen, please help me quickly. It's so heavy that I can't lift it anymore. I brought this watermelon up from downstairs."
Chen Linjiao quickly took it and said, "Thank you."
She looked up at Lu Hao again and said, "How much is it? I'll get the money."
Turn around and go get the money.
Lu Hao stopped her, "What kind of money do you want? You're still so arrogant now. If you really want to give her money, this watermelon might as well be thrown away and fed to the dogs."
When he yelled at her, Chen Linjiao fell silent.
"Dad, why are you feeding such a big watermelon to the dog? Even if Aunt Chen doesn't want it, you can still leave it to me." Nini's focus was particularly different, "You are so wasteful!"
She looked at Chen Linjiao and said, "Aunt Chen, this is something to share. You can't ask for money. I still have it at home."
Lu Hao looked at Chen Linjiao who was rubbing his clothes, "Don't give me rice wine next time."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Chen Linjiao's reply, he added, "Don't think too much, the rice wine you made is delicious, but you can't finish it by giving it so much, leaving it wasted and wasting your time."
Chen Linjiao's somewhat dim eyes suddenly brightened up.
She was really thinking too much just now.
"You're such an old man, you're married, and you're still so sensitive." Lu Hao shook his head, "Don't leave the watermelon overnight. You don't have a refrigerator, so you'll eat it all today."
He and Nini turned around and went out.
Chen Linjiao followed them out and walked to the corner of the stairs. She watched Lu Hao and Nini go downstairs. She was expressing her gratitude in this way.
"Daughter-in-law, let's go downstairs and take a stroll." Lu Hao took a piece of watermelon, took a bite and said.
The door was locked, and a family of three went downstairs, each holding a piece of watermelon.
Lu Hao walked directly to the gate of the community. Su Min was surprised and asked, "Go outside the yard?"
"Well, let's go outside for a walk." Lu Hao nodded.
