I'm a little regretful that Hua Wen can't see the stars in the sky tonight, even though she once said that she could see them almost every day when she was a teacher in school.

"Maybe you can see it later in the night. Go to bed early and I'll wake you up in the middle of the night to see it." I said.

"There is something really wrong with you. It seems that you are really stupid. Did I call you stupid? Don't wake me up in the middle of the night, otherwise I will deal with you." Hua Wen told me clearly.

Don't be so excited in the middle of the night.

I think spending the night in the mountains is more comfortable than staying in Kashgar, mainly because the temperature is right. Before going to bed, I ate some burnt naan and brushed my teeth. I brushed my teeth in the dark outside the yurt. The wind blew very cold.

After I returned to the yurt after finishing my teeth, I never wanted to go out again.

Maybe I'm tired from work, or maybe Hua Wen's threat made me discouraged. Today I'm really not as excited as last time. A warm quilt and a comfortable yurt are the best hypnotic things.

When I woke up in the morning, the sky outside was already gray. The sky showed the deep and charming blue of the plateau. It seemed that there were stars last night. It seemed that Chen Yan could take a hot bath tonight.

I suddenly thought of a big problem and hurried to find Chen Yan. Chen Yan had already gotten up and started doing business in the yurt. Because everyone knew yesterday that Chen Yan had brought in a batch of goods. Driven by the curiosity of the herdsmen,

, Chen Yan's small store that has not yet officially opened has sold less than half of its goods last night, especially beer and liquor.

So we drove Hua Wen's car to Uppal to buy some more goods without breakfast. Chen Yan's car didn't have a roof now. I was afraid of the cold in the morning. I also bought some naan bread in Uppal.

And the early-maturing watermelons that come from nowhere.

"Why did you come to me just now to say something was wrong?" Chen Yan asked me.

"I've been forgetting things lately. If you don't ask me, I almost forgot again. I just want to tell you that the water in the solar water heater will be very hot and you can't take a shower directly. We forgot to connect a cold water pipe and a valve for mixing water yesterday. Today

You might get scalded later tonight." I told Chen Yan.

"Damn it, are you telling the truth? Why didn't you think of it yesterday?" Chen Yan asked jokingly.

We went to buy dozens of meters of water pipes and valves. When we supplied the water yesterday, we temporarily used water from a hose. When we returned to the village, we first connected the cold water pipe and the supply pipe to the shower room. Now this

The water pipe was well connected, and the two laymen worked very quickly. This made several onlookers feel that Chen Yan and I were capable of anything. Chen Yan kept showing off to Xiao Sa that he could do nothing but give birth to children.

All cities.

At noon, Hua Wen and I had lunch and then returned to Shufu County. In Shufu County, we went to eat small baked buns again. I planned to buy the baked buns from Kashgar City for the "Wasteland·Sweet" restaurant.

, itself does not promote baked buns first, and normal-sized baked buns are not too big.

I am still thinking about not selling baked buns. One of the reasons is that baking buns will reduce the sales volume of my other varieties. The main reason is that after all, I buy ready-baked buns from others. There is no profit for me, even

Because it will cost you money to use disposable cartons or paper bags.

After eating the small baked buns, Hua Wen and I walked around Shufu County to see if there was anything we could learn from their catering. After that, we walked through several villages in Shufu County. It was different from Shule.

The rural areas of Shufu County have fewer people and are not lively enough. In addition, there are some obvious differences in details between the rural areas of the two places, from roads to housing.

"Have you noticed before, Ernie, that the rural population in Shufu County is obviously smaller than that in Shule, and the small bazaar at the head of the village is also smaller. The things grown in the fields look similar, but the varieties and density of the interplantings are different.

There are some differences in the way we manage the fields." Hua Wen said.

"Are you still looking for a model that can be universally applied to enable rural women to start earning money?" I asked. I looked at the small shops on the roadside. Generally, there are several shops in the most prosperous places in the village, but

Not very popular.

"It is not suitable for the entire southern Xinjiang. My earliest idea was that it was suitable for the entire southern Xinjiang, but now it seems that the idea at the time was a bit naive. Every place here has its own characteristics. Now I think there is one that can be applied to a township or a village.

The model is sufficient. Starting from one village or one township and expanding to different villages is a bit like targeted poverty alleviation, which must be clearly targeted. Only when these women have a say in the economy can they improve their family status.

To better influence their children and their husbands, most of these women have less participation in social life, which is also a problem." Hua Wen replied.

In my eyes, she has always been a being above ordinary people.

It was already time to get off work when we returned to Kashgar, and Hua Wen and I didn’t want to go home too early. We still went to the ancient city for a stroll. I can’t count how many times I’ve walked there. Anyway, I already know each other now.

There are many shop owners and some ordinary people running shops in the ancient city.

After dinner, we returned home. Mayisha sent me some photos and descriptions about the completion of the decoration and the logistics information of some of the equipment I had purchased previously. Most express delivery takes four to five days to arrive in Kashgar.

, some heavier and larger goods will take longer to travel through logistics, and you have to go to the logistics yard to pick up the goods yourself.

I sent Mayisha the pattern of the disposable tableware I blindly designed last time and asked her for some advice. The pattern I gave was a pattern that I thought was very enthusiastic, a silhouette of the ancient city of Kashgar, in germanium red.

The edges are blurred into a pattern with a blooming watercolor effect.

Cups, bowls, paper bags, and cartons all have the same design. Half of them are silhouettes of ancient city houses, with shading and layers, and the other half are the watercolor effects of the desert, colorful. The characters are in bright green, golden, and large

Pink and black are used as the colors, 'Wasteland·Red City' and the bottom row of small words 'Wasteland·Sweet', as well as the text with the address.

I added a sentence from the ancient city of Kashgar to remind you to protect the environment and please throw it into the trash.

Mayisha quickly gave feedback, saying that the design looked very good, and then said that the first batch would use this look. Each subsequent batch would be redesigned based on feelings or customer feedback.

So I asked her to find a larger Taobao store for disposable tableware and place an order online, and the first batch would be made in the smallest unit quantity.

Half an hour later, I saw screenshots of orders worth 1,000 each for cups with three capacities, small bowls of one size, small plates, small square boxes, small paper bags, and large paper bags.

I told Mayisha that it would be best for her to design several patterns to reflect local people’s understanding of the ancient city. As an alternative in the future, the theme should reflect the style of the ancient city, avoid religious elements, and take into account young and fashionable elements.

She resisted for a while and then agreed.

I don’t know if she has a particularly good idea. I think the elements displayed on the store are very important to the store. These elements must be reflected in these cups and plates. Maisha also studied art, so she should be better at designing.

Produce good work.

After that, Mire also called me and made an appointment to treat me to dinner tomorrow night!

It was last time that she said that she would invite the person Mire's father had found to help open the store. Hua Wen said she didn't want to go because she didn't like such an occasion, so the next day I took Mire and Maisha.

Went together.

Mire's father chose a restaurant called Charbagh Style Garden on Kashgar's Xiyu Avenue for the treat. I had never paid attention to this restaurant. It didn't look very big from the outside, but when I entered the back, I found it was something special.

There is a large yard behind the house, with a grape trellis, ivy, and various trees.

There are tables lined up under the shade of the trees, and there are several yurt-like private rooms, all of which are glass sunroom-like private rooms. There is also a wooden room with flowers planted inside and out, which looks a bit like a flower house.

smell.

In order to make the atmosphere better, Mire's father ordered a large table under green plants, with green plants on three sides and grapevines on the top of the head. It has a thick and wide wooden table and chairs, which can seat more than a dozen people.

During the day, I went to buy a few bottles of Quanxing wine. This wine is not expensive, costing more than 70 yuan a bottle, but it is difficult to buy in Kashgar. I found a small shop to buy it with the help of Mayisa.

At a cigarette shop in front of Sunshine Community, the owner was from Sichuan. He happily brought out Quanxing Liquor when he heard me asking about it. He mistakenly thought I was someone who knew wine, so I pretended to only drink Quanxing Liquor.

I praised Quanxing Wine so much that the boss promised on the spot to buy a few more items for me.

In this way, I bought the boss’s last few bottles of Quanxing wine. I had to buy this wine because Mire’s father said that one of the most important customers is a Sichuanese who loves drinking. When drinking, he doesn’t pay attention to price, but only pays attention to taste. He especially likes to drink Quanxing wine.

.

Despite this, I still felt uneasy and bought a few more bottles of Yili Xiaolaojiao. I didn’t dare to buy too expensive wine. I asked a civil servant about this. He said that in the past, leaders were invited to dinner alone. At that time,

No matter how expensive the wine is, no matter how expensive the wine is for the big event, in addition to drinking the best wine, you should also prepare wine for the leaders to take away.

But things are different now. I don’t dare to eat and drink like this anymore, and I don’t dare to owe others casual favors. Being invited to show up means that I have given you a lot of face. Therefore, I mostly eat and chat, and when there are many people, I have a meal.

Drinks that are acceptable to all tastes but not expensive. When there are few people, guests can drink whatever they want. Don’t force them if they don’t want to drink.

Mayisha and Mire bought some melon seeds and fruits. There are no fresh fruits now, only early-ripening apricots and stored apples, pears, and pomegranates. I asked about it and found out that this is the custom of treating guests in Kashgar. They will order some first.
Chapter completed!
