The Mu family's life has basically stabilized after they moved to Longzhong. In order to make use of the store and not let it go idle, Mu Yi's cousin Long Jian came up with the idea and suggested using Mu Yi's store to open a "Fried Potato"

shop.

Mu Yi has no experience in opening a store. Although Jin Lily has some experience, it is limited to selling wine, which is pure sales. If you want to sell "fried potatoes", it actually involves the purchase of food raw materials.

There are three links: production and sales.

Everyone understands that "Fried Potato" is a project with "small profit but no credit". But to really operate "Fried Potato" as a project and a business, it really takes some brains and careful consideration.

We have to consider procurement, production and sales. In the final analysis, who will run the store and who will open the store?

We discussed it and finally came up with two options.

The first plan is for everyone to run the business in partnership. Mu Yi and Jin Lily are responsible for providing stores, and Long Jian and his lover Chi Mei are responsible for investment and management. When the business is successful, Mu Yi and Jin Lily will be given some profit sharing, or paid according to the market price.

Some stores charge rent. If the business doesn't work, they won't take profit sharing or rent.

Everyone seems to be a little dissatisfied with the first plan. First of all, Long Jian and Chi Mei feel that although "Fried Potatoes" is indeed a business that seems to be "small profits but no credit". The capital turnover is also fast.

In the morning, you use money to buy raw materials, and in the evening, you produce the products and sell them, and the funds are returned with interest.

However, everyone is skeptical about whether there is "business", that is, whether there are customers. After all, the new market is still relatively far from the school and Longzhong Old Street. Compared with selling "fried potatoes",

In other words, there is no advantage in terms of location.

In addition, Mu Yi's mother Hai Wanqiu also has some opinions on this matter. What she means is, why should the store bought with so much money be given to Long Jian and the others in vain to do business? If the business is successful, Long Jian will

They say they are not doing any work, but they say they are not making money even though they are clearly making money. How can they protect their own interests?

Finally, she said that "fried potatoes" was not a complicated matter and she could do it. Only then did Mu Yi and Jin Lily understand what she meant. It turned out that she wanted to do this business.

Mu Yi and Jin Lily thought about it again and again. They felt that it was not impossible to give this store to her to run "fried potato". But she had no experience in business and could not prepare a "fried potato" dipping dish. This dip

The dish is particularly crucial, as it determines the "taste" of a "fried potato" store. In a sense, it is actually the "signature" of the "fried potato" shop.

Hai Wanqiu dispelled everyone's concerns about the dipping dish with one sentence. "You are afraid that I can't make the dipping dish well. You prepare the dipping dish in advance. Then I can just scoop it out to the guests."

There is another factor that Mu Yi and Jin Lily consider. That is, if mother has something to do here and makes some money, maybe she can help take care of little Lele.

Thinking of this, a question arises. How to carry Little Lele? If the mother comes to run the "Fried Potato" shop, she will definitely not have the energy to take care of Little Lele. Hai Wanqiu said that she can carry Little Lele on her back

, or lock Xiao Lele upstairs.

Mother's enthusiasm for opening a "fried potato" shop, let Mu Yi and Jin Lily know? Should this shop be opened? Or should it be opened? Otherwise, she would be completely offended. And they

I can't afford to offend her.

In the second option, Mu Yi and Jin Baihe are responsible for the investment, Hai Wanqiulai is responsible for the management, and Long Jian's lover Chi Mei is responsible for helping. If there is a profit, everyone will share one-third. If there is a loss? Mu will be responsible for the operation.

It's enough for the whole family to bear it. In fact, you can't lose anything? If you can't sell it, you can just eat it yourself.

Just do it. On the one hand, everyone organized a "taste inspection group" to go around to inspect the taste of other people's "dipping dishes". That is, "eat, eat, eat" everywhere. While eating, analyze and study other people's "dipping dishes" recipes.

Then come back and do your own research. What’s more, you can observe and learn other people’s “menus”, which are the main “products”.

After some investigation and study, everyone felt that they had almost finished the research on "dipping dishes", so they started to try frying and eating them in the house. Generally speaking, they felt good. So? Started to buy tables, benches and other necessary items for opening a shop.

Supplies. We "opened" just in time for the "market". After a busy day, the business is not bad. After excluding the cost, we still made dozens of dollars.

So everyone's confidence doubled and they were ready to fight...

Jin Chongming also reached an agreement with his partners. The two families each held half of the shares, invested 880,000 yuan, and bought a bus from others. Among them, the initial investment in buying the car was 440,000 yuan each in cash, which was a one-time payment.

Pay in full. Vehicle insurance, maintenance, refueling, master's salary, etc. are based on actual expenses, and half of the expenses are paid by the family.

Zhang Xuefen cooked a sumptuous "break-up" meal and entertained the wine-making master well, then settled an extra month's salary to him. He officially shut down the winery. From then on, he switched from being a wine-making master to a bus driver.

Car conductor.

The two families separated for a day and started running together. Early in the morning, 10 buses departed from the county bus station, and 5 buses drove from the county to Longzhong and Datang. Then, after returning to the county, they drove to Huayang, Taiyang, and back again.

In the county town, the cycle is like this. The other 5 vehicles run in the opposite direction to these 5 vehicles. But the routes all overlap.

On the first day of running, Zhang Xuefen was not used to the bumpy life in the car from morning to night, except for eating and going to the toilet. After running with the car for a day, she only felt pain in her waist and back, and her hands and feet were numb.

, dizzy...it's really more difficult than roasting wine.

However, there was no turning back. They invested more than 400,000 yuan in one go, which was close to 500,000 yuan. The mental pressure on Jin Chongming and Zhang Xuefen was also quite huge. In Zhang Xuefen's words, this was like "driving a cow out first."

, and keep recycling it one hair at a time."

Because soon, Jin Chongming and Zhang Xuefen suffered the "pain" of transitioning to invest in bus transportation. The driver actually drove carefully when driving, but somehow, the bus they bought was not

A flat tire is like "laying down"...something will happen every three days. The ticket money received is not enough to cover the maintenance expenses. It really makes Jin Chongming and Zhang Xuefen very worried. Zhang Xuefen's hair is all covered with hair.

Gray hair begins to appear…

Seeing that my uncle and aunt had changed their careers to run buses, Yuan Kailiang also came to ask Jin Chongming if he could invest in this bus service.

Naturally, Jin Chongming and Zhang Xuefen told Yuan Kailiang the ups and downs of investing in buses. However, it was difficult to give him advice on whether he could invest in the bus or not. Anyway, he couldn't understand it in one sentence, so let Yuan Kailiang

Liang thinks carefully and takes control by himself. After all, this is not a small investment, it can easily amount to hundreds of thousands.

But Yuan Kailiang doesn't have so many worries. Because his son-in-law Wu Zelong is a driver of a long-distance truck and has an A license, and Kailiang himself also took the B license exam. But in these years, he has been making wine at home.

Instead of going for freight transportation, I supported my son-in-law to buy a four-axle truck for long-distance freight transportation.

Although Kailiang and his wife are young, they are only in their early forties, but they are young parents-in-law. When Kailiang and his wife got married, Kailiang was 17 years old and his wife was 16. The year after they got married, they had their daughter Yuan.

Xiaohong. Sixteen years later, Yuan Xiaohong, who was still in high school, became friends with her classmate Wu Zelong. This play made Yuan Xiaohong's belly bigger.

They both dropped out of school when they were young. According to rural customs, they made nine bowls and became a family. It was natural that Yuan Kailiang and his wife became the youngest parents-in-law.

Later, considering that his daughter and son-in-law had no livelihood skills, Kailiang asked his son-in-law Wu Zelong to learn a driver's license. At first, he bought a small truck for him to drive. Slowly, he kept changing cars, and finally changed to

Today’s four-axle car.

Wu Zelong learned well. He drove honestly and took the money he earned home to Yuan Xiaohong to take charge of.

After Yuan Xiaohong and Wu Zelong got married, they rarely lived at her mother-in-law's house. Most of the time they lived at her parents' house. When they had children, their mothers helped to take care of them. Time flew by and ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

The son and daughter of Yuan Xiaohong and Wu Zelong also went to primary school.

A few days later, Kailiang and his son-in-law Wu Zelong teamed up and spent 920,000 to buy a bus from another family and started bus transportation.

Seeing that in a short period of time, the bus transfer fee increased from 880,000 to 920,000 yuan, an increase of 40,000 yuan. Jin Chongming and Zhang Xuefen felt much better. In addition, it was the twelfth lunar month and they were working outside.

People are starting to come back one after another to prepare for the New Year, and the number of people traveling is also increasing day by day. It can be said that the carriages are always crowded. Business is extremely good...

In the following time, two things happened at Brother Jun's house.

The first thing that happened was that Junge's van hit someone again. Junge was talking about pulling people down from Dama Township in his car. The van had just started to move, and the speed was not very fast. A woman carrying a bamboo pole was in the van.

Walking ahead on the left, she suddenly turned right, probably trying to run across the road, and hit Jun Geer's left headlight.

When Brother Jun saw the collision, he naturally stopped the car quickly and checked the situation. Except for some scratches on the paintwork of the car, which was scratched by the backpack the woman was carrying, there was no other damage. He asked her if the collision was serious. She did not answer Jun.

My brother just kept moaning.

Passengers who got off the car and knew the woman stepped forward to help check her injuries. Except that her palms were slightly bruised from falling to the ground and her two knees were red, there were no other obvious injuries.

Trauma. Observe that there are no fractures in the hands and feet.

Everyone persuaded her to forget that there was no big problem. They asked Brother Jun to pay her a few hundred yuan to go back and "break her mouth." Naturally, Brother Jun was completely unwilling. It was obvious that she just couldn't walk without bumping her eyes.

Why did I have to pay for my car? However, thinking of settling the matter, I was still willing to "pay to eliminate the disaster". So I agreed to get 100 yuan.

The woman sitting in front of the car who was not leaving groaned even louder when she heard that Brother Jun was only willing to take 100 yuan. Her painful look gave people the impression that she had at least broken a bone.

The woman stood in front of the car and refused to leave, so other passengers took other drivers' cars and left. The woman's family members heard that the woman had been hit by a van on the highway. They all came over.

Facing the dark group of people, Brother Jun couldn't help but feel a little guilty. He was really worried, what if these people got impulsive and beat him up? There was really no other way, so he had to suggest that the injured be sent to the county town.

Examination. If the examination reveals that you have injured somewhere, you should receive the appropriate medical treatment.

People watching the excitement also advised him to send him to the hospital for examination first.

The next group of people all crowded into Junge's van. When he saw more than a dozen people, it was obviously overloaded. Naturally, Junge didn't dare to overload the van. So he had to pay for the extra people to sit in another van.

Let's all go to the county seat together.

Brother Jun pulled the person to a stop in front of the Xinshi Street store. Mu Deqian was very happy when he saw Brother Jun pulling a car of people slowly. He hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is business today?"

Before he finished speaking, Brother Jun became angry. "What a fart. I hit someone in Malaysia. All the people in this car are her relatives. And the car behind is too..."

This made Mu Deqian anxious. "What should we do?"

"What should I do? Let's take it to the county hospital for a checkup first. After the checkup, you can get the treatment you need."

"Are you rich?" Mu Deqian asked Brother Jun cautiously.

"You have so much money. I just made over a hundred yuan today."

"Oh. Then I'll borrow some money."

Mu Deqian quickly closed the store and went to borrow money...

When they arrived at the county hospital, the doctor visually inspected the woman and found no other injuries except for some scratches on her fingers. However, he still took an X-ray examination at the request of the woman's family and still found no injuries such as fractures. But the woman kept insisting.

Moaning incessantly.

The doctor said directly: "Don't scream. You are not injured. The most I can give you is some alcohol or something to wipe your hands with..."

The women and their family members turned around and yelled at the doctor, calling him a "quack doctor."
To be continued...
