Chapter 70:Renting a House

Hou Canghai has been staying in the restaurant throughout the afternoon and is familiar with all aspects of the restaurant.When Xiong Xiaomei did the clothing store, he did not participate in depth, basically came up with ideas, and was not adopted.This time as a food group, his mentality changed, went all out to participate in management, and wanted to make real money through a cafeteria.Change the fate of the family.

After dinner, the two people in the small hall will be counted out of all the income, more than 20 yuan of large tickets are all collected, 20 yuan or less small tickets are packed in the cash box, locked into the warehouse, as tomorrow's breakfast to find change.

The business on the second day of business was 500 yuan more than the first day, and the upward trend was gratifying.

Xiong Xiaomei smiled and said, "We can see if renting a house, whether you can make money for the chef is very critical, and we have to rent a house for Guo Jialin's husband and wife."

He said, “I’m going to lock the change.”

The work of locking the change box into the warehouse belongs to Hou Canghai alone, because the rats in the warehouse are vertical and horizontal, and they are not forced to do it, and the bear Xiaomei will not step into.With the money box, opening the door of the warehouse, from the corner of the warehouse came the desolate "squeak" sound, a oily and smooth fat mouse was firmly clamped by a mouse clip, is struggling.According to the employee's advice, do not rush to deal with the mouse after clamping, let the mouse constantly howl, so that other rats can be deterred from coming in.

Hearing the desolate cry of the rat, not only the other rats will be scared, Hou Canghai feel goosebumps, quickly leave the warehouse, lock the door.

Xiong Xiaomei stood far away and said, “In the afternoon, Chen Dong said that he caught a big mouse and was still there?”

Hou Canghai said, "Also, let it be called tonight for one night, and deal with it tomorrow."

Xiaomei Xiong said, "These people are cruel."

Hou Canghai said: "The people who open the food group and the rats are born wrong, and if the rats contaminate the food, we will suffer losses."If you don't want to sell it, your conscience won't pass, so you can only fight them to live and die, and the little sentiment is that there is no place for the food group to grow."

I went through the back door of the campus and came to the outside of the school.Since the completion of the Academy of Electric Sciences, many small farmhouses have grown rapidly around the wall, and have specially provided services for more than 20,000 students of the Academy of Electric Sciences, and renting houses is one of the important contents.

When I came to the rental room that had been called in the afternoon, the landlord was a villager in his thirties.It is said that the villagers, but not a typical rural people, with the suburban villagers unique sleek and shrewd, met: "at noon is you call, long-term or short-term rental?"

Hou Canghai said, “If you want to rent, you can rent for a year.”

The landlord owner likes this kind of long-term tenant, "Is it you who rent a house?"

Hou Canghai said, "It is for friends to rent, they are husband and wife, working in the Institute of Electric Science."

The facilities in the rental room are simple, a bed, a table, four benches, no TV, water heater, gas stove, and water.Bear said, “There’s no TV?”The landlord said, "There was once one, broken, not repaired."Bear said, “Could you buy one?”The landlord said, "You rent more than four thousand dollars a year, I buy a TV, that makes a bullshit."

If you are still teaching in Qinzhou No. 2 Middle School, Xiong Xiaomei must not be accustomed to such vulgar and direct words, did a clothing store, and opened a food group, her acceptance capacity greatly increased, do not care about the word "shit", said: "Buy the TV, or yours, can not take away."The owner said, “The TV is not expensive, you can buy one yourself.”I am on this condition, rent it, and if you do not rent, I will find the next one."

Xiong Xiaomei saw that the landlord was this "blaspy" attitude, and wanted to turn around and go, she saw that Hou Canghai had not left, so she resisted standing on one side.

"You have no advantage in this place except being a little closer to the school, and your furniture is not complete, and it is very old."Hou Canghai asked for a while before renting a house, knowing that this rent is the market price, not expensive or cheap, the biggest benefit is to be close to the school.He had made up his mind to rent the house, but to bargain as much as he could, and save a little money.

The rental boss said, "Look at the fact that you two look rich, why should you tell us about this little money?"I'm talking about the real price, not less money."

Bear said, “How’s the usual security?”

The landlord said, "My yard has been rented out by students, very safe, first pay half a year's rent ah."

Although only for two days in the food group, Xiong Xiaomei understood the importance of the chef, Guo Jialin is coming, in addition to the lobby, you can also make the small hall, so you must put Guo Jialin and Du Yurong in a good place.Xiong Xiaomei looked at Hou Canghai, saw each other nod, and said, "Then make sure, let's write a contract."

The landlord said, "Look at you as a teacher, you write the contract, I will sign it."

The terms of the contract are simple, and it is difficult to fail the former chief of staff, Hou Canghai, after listing the main terms, signing, giving money, and writing the receipts.

The owner threw the key to Hou Canghai and let him go out.

Xiong Xiaomei said, "The house is too simple to set up, and winter is coming soon, and you have to add a cover for them."Hou Canghai looked at the empty living room and said, "Don't buy, there are many at home, just go home and get it."The bear Xiaomei who stood at the window suddenly whispered in surprise, "Come here."

Come to the window, condescending, and see clearly another, shorter yard.In the middle of the other yard were four young men, two men and two women, chatting in the courtyard.The interior lights illuminated them clearly.When the two girls each sat in the boy's arms, when they laughed, the men and women openly intimated with each other, without any shyness.One of the boys was very bold, in front of the other man and woman, to put his hand to the place where he should not go.The girl giggled and shouted "itch", but did not realize that this kind of behavior indecent in public.

Bear Xiaomei and Hou Canghai stood in front of the window for a moment and shook their heads.

Hou Canghai said: "There is a strong student rental group, it is no wonder the landlord boss is so hard."When we used to be in love with school, even if we had to be intimate, we hid in dark corners, where there was such a rampant.Girls parents see this situation, I don't know what to think?"

"I used to be in Qinzhou II, I think those students are naughty, compared with the electrical science of these students, Qin II students are as pure as little white rabbit."Xiong Xiaomei said, "If you can't find the purchase again, when you go to work, things will be troublesome."Hou Canghai said, “If I can’t find it for a while, then I will continue to purchase.”Xiong Xiaomei said, "It's not a long-term solution to get up so early every morning."

Leaving the rental, the two stood on the side of the road waiting for the car.

Hou Canghai said, “It is not too late, we will run a trip to the world factory.”The house has ready-made cotton tidpet, sheet and covered, and there is no need to buy a new one, and the bed is finished with more than a thousand dollars.”

Xiong Xiaomei had some concerns and said, "Everything is going to the home, it's not good, we'll be looked at by my parents."

Hou Canghai advised: "The food group began, and there are too many places to use money, which can save a little bit and save a little."There are many old things in the house, and they are broken for a long time.And the newly purchased bedding must be cleaned, and will not necessarily be used tomorrow."

After the phone call, the two went to the factory.The commuter car has been closed, and the two people took the bus to the door of the factory, got off, and quickly walked home.

Just entered the house to get an unexpected good news, his father Hou Xia Dynasty's cousin Hou Jinyu is willing to come to the purchase.Hou Jinyu used to do a restaurant in the local area, and was one of the few people in the Hou family who knew the kitchen.In Hou Canghai's impression, uncle Hou Jinyu is loyal and shrewd, but a good candidate for procurement.

After the purchase of candidates was determined, what is still missing in the food group is a white-case cook.

After Zhou Yongli received the call, he had already prepared the tidbits, sheets and thin quilts, and tied them with ropes.At this time, after nine o'clock, the two did not dare to delay, with bedding, came to the door of the factory waiting for a long-distance bus.

After half an hour of the night, several suspicious people passed by, which frightened Xiaomei Bear.Finally, a bus appeared in sight.Hou Canghai carried a bed of cotton tuffs, holding a mattress tidge, and eagerly beckoning to the long-distance bus in the night.

The lights of the long-distance bus emit a strong light in the dark, shooting at Hou Canghai, and a shadow of the wolf.In the eyes of Xiong Xiaomei, Hou Canghai has always been a handsome man, and under the lights, the boyfriend with cotton flocculents and the workers working at the site are very close.

Time is the pig knife, the knife to push people old, life is also a pig knife, the same knife to push people to old.

The car was full of sleepiness, including the conductor, and saw someone on the bus, and was powerless: "Two people, four pieces."

Take the bus to the city as long as the corner, the long-distance bus overturned.Hou Canghai was busy for a day, weak, too lazy to talk about the price, gave four dollars, and found a position in the last row.The smell of the long-distance bus was very bad, full of foot odor, sweaty and sour odor of the body without bathing, and the bear Xiaomei almost vomited out.

The car to Jiangzhou City, you also need to turn the car back to the Black River.Hou Canghai made a decision and said, “Take a taxi home.”Xiong Xiaomei was almost fainted by the stench in the long-distance bus, and said without hesitation: "Take a taxi, we made money today anyway."

Sitting in the taxi, the taxi driver kept talking to the other taxi drivers with the microphone of the car, and the voice was harsh and full of dirty words.Bear Xiaomei leaned on her boyfriend's shoulder and squinted, letting these dirty words go away.

It was the second day of the meal, ending in excitement, tension, and longing, both of them, tired as dogs, and came home, took a hasty bath, and fell asleep.When they left school, they decided to be happy in the evening to celebrate the business of the food group to continue to do well the next day, who knows that the food group has a lot of things, too busy to rest, and all the energy in the body will be exhausted in one day.

Jiangzhou Xiping County, Guo Jialin's home.

Guo Xiaolin excitedly said, "Mom, I want to go to primary school with you."

Du Yurong said, "Not yet, you can't do it now, you can go to Jiangzhou City, with Mom and Dad at home."

Guo Jialin reclined on the sofa, spit out a large smoke ring, and vomited a small smoke ring, the small smoke ring faster, easily through the big smoke ring.He vomited a smaller smoke ring again and drilled through the slightly smaller smoke ring in front.

In order to practice this boring technique, Guo Jialin spent a lot of night rest.In Du Yurong's view is an incredible thing, Guo Jialin is very worthy, his reason is very simple: "Without this pursuit of technological excellence, I can not be a skilled good cook."

Dude admitted this statement.In their village, there are many people who go out to be a chef, Guo Jialin is the best among young people, and the cooking has been recognized by everyone, and she immediately counted: "Good technology is one aspect, but you also have to think about how to make more money."You are the axis, and many of you are the bosses of the teachers and brothers who have come to Guangdong with you."

Guo Jialin said, "When the boss has a loss and a profit, I contracted the kitchen to win and not lose."

"When the boss makes money is to make a lot of money, you pack the kitchen just make a little money." Du Yurong said again: "I called Chen Dong, asked Hou Canghai over the scene, he said that there are still many students to eat, do a good job will certainly make money."Neither Hou Canghai nor Xiong Xiaomei understood the set of food groups, and was purely layman.

Guo Jialin fell into thinking and constantly spitting smoke rings into the air.

Du Yurong was a little angry and said, "Smoking two less to kill you, don't you see your son by your side?"

Guo Jialin put his hand into the air, did not let the smoke smold his son, and asked, “How much money does Hou Canghai give us?”

Du Yurong said, "The two of us together are less than 5,000, and if I didn't go back to Jiangzhou with my son, I wouldn't be back."

Guo Jialin said: "Jiangzhou's salary level is not high, Hou Canghai is a small cadre, can give us 5,000 yuan salary, it is very good."

Du Yurong said: "With your technology, no matter which restaurant you go to, you have to give them money in vain."There is a small hall in the cafeteria, the kind of table, we simply contract this small hall."

Guo Jialin gave his wife a white eye, "now it is too early to say this, we will talk about it in the past, first familiar with the environment in Jiangzhou, find some feeling."

Guo Jialin has worked in the south since his debut, never worked in his hometown of Jiangzhou, and now he has been wandering for more than ten years, and his son is about to go to primary school, which is the main reason why he is willing to return to his hometown.

Du Yurong reminded: "We do not go tomorrow, the rental is not ready, I do not want to sleep in the big dormitory."The capitalists let the workers work, and they have to improve their working conditions, and you are the chef."

Guo Jialin said, “Women have short hair, and now Hou Canghai has not seen my level.”I have not yet helped him find the money, there is no contribution, why others want to fully agree to our conditions.We'll go to Jiangzhou tomorrow, and we'll get the food up and talk about the conditions."

Guo Xiaolin saw that the two adults were only talking, ignored themselves, and began to be impatient, calling Grandma directly.

Guo Jialin's mother heard the words coming out of the house and said, "What time is it, let the baby sleep."She took Guo Xiaolin and walked toward the house, saying, "When to go to his cousin, he is missing people on his side, you have been resting for two days, it is time to go."

Guo Jialin smiled, "It's hard to go home and see my mother and son, you still have to drive me away, I'll go tomorrow."

Guo Jialin's mother said: "In the most difficult time of our family, my cousin often supported our family.When you were a child, most of your clothes were worn by your cousin.Now the benefits of the world security factory are not good, it is not easy for their family to open a food group, you have to work harder."

Guo Jialin impatiently said, "Mom, don't keep mentioning this matter, everyone is making money together."

Guo Jialin felt humiliated when he mentioned this matter, and this humiliation is still difficult to say.In his impression, as a child, every year to the world's factory to go to the world, this trip is happy and painful, happiness is to the world factory can eat a delicious red meat, as well as the factory cafeteria buns, the pain is that the mother will always choose their own clothes in a lot of old clothes, but also always pull themselves to draw.

Guo Jialin and Hou Canghai are cousins, about the same age.The sea of Hou Canghai grows tall and tall, and Guo Jialin can pick up his cousin's old clothes.Although Guo Jialin was only 11 or 12 years old at that time, he still felt that his mother's interest in picking old clothes for himself was extremely embarrassing.

After the reform and opening up, the countryside can engage in family side business, the standard of living gradually improved, coupled with the self-esteem of Guo Jialin resolutely resist to pick up old clothes, Guo Jialin mother to the cousin's family will be less.From the age of fifteen or sixty-six to the present, Guo Jialin and Hou Canghai have met with ten fingers.One generation, two generations of cousins, three generations of four generations do not recognize, this is the most classic summary of the relationship between the cousins.

At four-thirty in the morning, when the alarm clock went off, Hou Canghai tried his best to open his eyes, and said, "I got up first, you can sleep a little longer."

Xiong Xiaomei half closed his eyes: "We run around like this to run to trouble, it is better to rent a house at the Institute of Electric Science, and the fare and rent are about the same."

Hou Canghai squinted for more than ten seconds, got up the bed resolutely, and said, "Then we will go to the house, so as not to run back and forth."When he went to the bathroom in the bathroom, he self-motivated: "Other people have eaten hard in business, I can't be squeamish."It's not that you get up early, there's nothing great."

Arriving at the gate, the driver, Lao Wu, was already waiting outside, sitting in the car smoking.Hou Canghai saw Lao Wu moment, and the resentments generated when he went to the toilet disappeared.Old Wu is in his thirties, for meager freight, get up at more than four o'clock every morning, not a day, but every day.Under the light of the cigarette butt, his forehead showed deep wrinkles.In this society, people want to live a good life, must pay their own hard work, the world dropped pie things is best not to think.

Sitting in the co-pilot's position, Hou Canghai yawned and said, "It's hard, old Wu."Old Wu handed a cigarette and said, “It’s all about life, there’s no way.”

The car starts, the lights are on, and the road ahead lights up.In the dark night, many people have gone out, or walked, or biked, or waiting for an early bus.Hou Canghai said, “It’s only five o’clock, so why are there already a lot of pedestrians on the road?”What did they do so early?”Lao Wu said, “They are all people who are looking for life, as long as they can make money, even if they have to get up at four o’clock in the morning.”Everyone has everyone's life, and when they are young, they must be accepted in middle age."

Today is the third time to the wholesale market, and with two days of business experience, Hou Canghai came to the wholesale market a lot of calm, went straight to the third district, buy potatoes, buy vines, buy winter melons, buy pumpkins, buy white.The shopkeepers in the mall have a good memory, knowing that this young man is the purchase of a cafeteria of the Academy of Electric Sciences, no longer a white-eyed attitude, and they are warmly greeting and introducing the cheapest road dishes.

From the wholesale market back to the cafeteria of the Academy of Electricity, close to seven o'clock, breakfast is being sold.

With the experience of the first two days, if you wait until Hou Canghai from the wholesale market to buy breakfast, a Hou Canghai is too tired, two times too late, so this morning two employees were arranged to go to the breakfast market to sweep goods, buy buns and bread.

The truck drove to the back door of the cafeteria, and Hou Canghai and Lao Wu unloaded the goods together.

After the kitchen piled some fresh pork, Chen Dong is using the scale to check the goods.After the inspection, Chen Dong issued a special receipt order with a cafeteria seal.According to the original design scheme, the inspection of this pass should be personally controlled by Xiong Xiaomei, the main purpose is to control the source of goods.He looked around and continued to unload.

After the unloading was finished, Hou Canghai came to the front window, and he said to Xiong Xiaomei, “How is it this morning?”Xiong Xiaomei looked at the big clock hanging on the wall and said, "Students must sleep, and the morning peak will appear a little later."

Hou Canghai said, “Why did Chen Dong collect pork?”

Xiong Xiaomei said, "There is a problem with the workflow of the previous design, which is a paper that does not understand the situation."A lot of delivery is in the breakfast time, I must be at the front desk, where there is cash, sloppy.If you want to master the inspection process completely, unless you are in the food group all day."

Hou Canghai said, “Then you have to pay more attention to your eyes, and you will often repeat the scale later.”The heart of the wicked is not without the heart of the defense.”

A thin man and plump woman walked into a cafeteria hall with her bag.

He stared at the sea, and finally saw the shadow of the old cousin on his strange face.
