When couples go shopping, they just walk back and forth along the street, just shopping.

Zhang Xixi doesn't have a boyfriend. Sometimes she thinks about what it would be like to walk on the road with a handsome guy. Now, she has realized that there is no sweetness, just one word, tired! She feels a little uncomfortable.

Understand, isn’t shopping just for women? Why is it that when we get to Jia Simiao, he can go shopping better than women?

Shen Junao was busy with work, and Tang Ziyu liked to go shopping, so she insisted on dragging Zhang Xixi with her. Zhang Xixi complained that she was tired every time, and going shopping with Jia Simiao made her even more tired.

The weather is still hot, the sun is very poisonous, and there is not even a hint of wind.

Zhang Xixi's face was red, sweat dripped down her forehead, even her T-shirt was stuck to her back, and the traces of her chest strap were so clear. She was holding a small flower umbrella and flat sandals on her feet, and finally

He couldn't stand it anymore and stopped moving forward. He said loudly: "Jia Simiao, what do you mean? Didn't you say you were buying goods? It's too torture to wander around like this, thirsty and tired."

Jia Simiao asked: "Xixi, what do you think you feel now?"

Zhang Xixi glared at him and said angrily: "I really want to beat you up, break your teeth, and make you swallow them in your stomach."

Jia Simiao smiled and said: "I can imagine this, but before you beat me, don't you want to have some cold drinks, watermelon, papaya or ice cream or something?"

"Yes I do."

"I invite you to eat."

There was a cold drink shop in front of me. After drinking a cup of cold drink and eating two slices of iced watermelon, Zhang Xixi's anger disappeared and he said happily: "I guess you are capable of causing trouble and you know how to please me."

Jia Simiao smiled lightly and said: "To do business, you must understand the business opportunities. Now, do you understand what I mean by taking you out for shopping?"

Zhang Xixi said: "What do you mean? Oh, you...you don't want me to sell iced watermelons and cold drinks with you, do you?"

Jia Simiao smiled and said, "Why, you still look down on people selling ice watermelon and cold drinks?"

Zhang Xixi said: "Such a piece of watermelon only costs two yuan. How much can we sell it for, even if we risk our lives?"

"Selling watermelons is just one thing. We mainly sell cold drinks. When we save some money, we will open a shop in front of Yanjing Medical University. What do you think?"

"real?"

Zhang Xixi's eyes shone brightly, and she murmured: "But, we rely on selling iced watermelons, cold drinks, etc. When can we save money to buy a store?"

Jia Simiao said: "You don't have to buy it. It's the same thing if we rent one first. According to my calculations, God will take care of us. In a few weeks, we should be able to pay for renting the store. It won't be a problem."

Zhang Xixi grinned and shouted: "Are you blowing air, or are you teasing me?"

Jia Simiao smiled lightly and said, "You don't believe it?"

Zhang Xixi said: "Of course I don't believe it. A piece of watermelon only costs 2 yuan. A whole watermelon can be cut into 8 pieces, which means it sells for 16 yuan. The cost price of this watermelon is 10 yuan. In other words,

, we only earn 6 yuan from selling 1 yuan of watermelon. You think, in a few weeks, how much can we sell even if we sell to death?"

Jia Simiao said: "I have read the newspaper a long time ago. There are a large number of melon farmers in the western suburbs. Every day, trucks go to the western suburbs to buy watermelons and then sell them to the fruit wholesale markets in the city. What we saw along the street

These fruit shops get their goods from the large fruit wholesale market. In other words, when it is their turn, the watermelon has already been sold through three hands. How can the price not increase? "

Zhang Xixi said excitedly: "Oh, I understand, you mean that we buy directly from the melon farmers. In this way, we are first-hand dealers, and the price will definitely be much lower. Do you know how much a pound of melon farmers wholesale?

?”

Jia Simiao said: "Fifty cents."

"Ah? Only... only fifty cents?" Zhang Xixi immediately lowered his head, plucked his fingers, and shouted: "Isn't this too dark? We buy watermelon from the fruit shop, and it costs one yuan per pound."

"The principle of making money in business is to get the lowest price possible, and then try to sell it at the highest price..."

"Then why are you lingering? Should we buy second-hand refrigerators and freezers, or go to the western suburbs to take a look?"

"We don't have that much capital on hand, so we'll go to the western suburbs first to buy watermelons."

When it comes to money, Zhang Xixi is like an eggplant beaten by frost. She doesn't have much money in her pocket when she comes out of the house. She just wants to support herself and show her family that she can do it. Both of them are

Not willing to take a taxi, I took the bus directly to the western suburbs. I took the bus directly to the destination.

After leaving the suburbs, there were quite a few watermelon fields on both sides of the road. There were also many melon farmers who set up pavilions on the roadside and piled watermelons directly on the roadside. When two people asked about the price, they found that the retail price was 80 cents, wholesale.

The price is slightly lower, but it must be in large quantities.

Neither of them said a word and continued to walk forward, asking questions.

These melon farmers all seemed to have negotiated in advance, and the prices were all the same. Zhang Xixi whispered: "Jia Simiao, you said, if it's only 50 cents, even if we deduct the shipping fee, it won't be worth it?"

Jia Simiao smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's walk again."

At this time, a tearing scream suddenly came from the side: "Help, help, my dad has fainted."

Most of these melon farmers came from other places to rent land and grow watermelons. Life was not easy either, so they lived directly in melon sheds. When they heard the sound, they all ran over. Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi fought.

After saying hello, he also crossed the ditch and ran into the melon field.

The person who fainted was an old man in his sixties. He fell on the melon field, his face was pale, his limbs were cold, and his body was twitching. This situation shocked Zhang Xixi, and even the melon farmers around him.

Everyone was anxious and helpless.

Jia Simiao said loudly: "Let me take a look, I am a doctor."

A thin and small young man next to him seemed to have seen a savior, tears came down, and he cried: "Doctor, please save my dad, what's wrong with him."

Without checking his pulse, Jia Simiao directly took out two silver needles from the backpack he carried with him, and pierced the old man's Qihai acupoint and Baihui acupoint at the same time. His acupuncture speed was quite fast, a bit like

Just like pounding garlic, the needle tip kept moving in and out of the old man's acupuncture points.

Including Zhang Xixi, these people were dumbfounded. Is this treating a disease? After dozens of seconds, the old man suddenly groaned and finally woke up.

Ah? It’s amazing. Just a few times of needle pricking and the person wakes up?

While these people were shocked, their mouths opened even more. Jia Simiao actually bent down and picked up the old man, ran directly to the fish pond next to the melon patch, and jumped in together. The old man just left his head outside,

His body was immersed in the water. Is there anyone who treats people like this? Zhang Xixi squatted on the shore and winked at Jia Simiao, "Don't kill people like this."

The melon farmers gathered around the pond, extremely nervous.

The old man's son pointed his finger at Jia Simiao and said excitedly: "You... what are you doing? Nothing will happen to my dad, right?"

Jia Simiao smiled and said: "It's okay, don't worry."

"Is everything okay? I'm telling you, if you mess up my dad, I'll fight you to the death."

"Ergou, what are you talking about? I'm in good spirits now and I'm fine." The old man actually spoke.

Jia Simiao carried the old man up from the fish pond and placed him in the shade of the melon shed. He did not let the old man change out of his soaked clothes. He also asked everyone around him to spread out to maintain ventilation. Strangely enough, the old man's expression

As usual, it has completely recovered.

Zhang Xixi said in surprise: "Jia Simiao, what's going on with the old man?"

Jia Simiao smiled and said: "Severe heat stroke, it belongs to sunstroke."

Sunstroke, just like its name, occurs when people are directly exposed to the scorching sun. The strong sunlight penetrates the skin of the head and skull, causing damage to brain cells, which in turn causes congestion and edema of the brain tissue. Since the head is mainly affected,

Therefore, the initial discomfort is severe headache, nausea and vomiting, irritability, and then coma and convulsions. If not treated in time, it is likely to be life-threatening.

The old man's son knelt down in front of Jia Simiao, knocked his head a few times, and said with tears of gratitude: "Benefactor, you are my great benefactor, Li Ergou..."

Jia Simiao quickly helped him up and said with a smile: "I didn't do anything, it was just a little effort."

Li Ergou was very excited and insisted on letting Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi have dinner here. Old Li Tou also followed the advice and his attitude was very sincere. This is a life-saving favor. It is really unreasonable not to treat him to a meal.

Jia Simiao glanced at Zhang Xixi. Zhang Xixi was elated, but he didn't understand that it's hard to refuse people's hospitality, so just eat.

Li Ergou grinned and hurriedly went to buy meat, while Jia Simiao, Zhang Xixi and Lao Litou were chatting under the melon shed. Only then did they know that they all came from a place called Li Jiaao.

They came from the ravine. It was so poor there that some young people came out to do odd jobs outside. They rented land to grow watermelons, which was pretty good.

Old Li Tou didn't quite understand why Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi came to a place like this on such a hot day.

Jia Simiao laughed twice, and Zhang Xixi couldn't wait to say: "We want to buy some watermelons and go back to do some small business."

Tsk tsk, look at the city people, who says they look down on country people? This young couple is very simple.

Old Li Tou smiled and said: "We have nothing else here but watermelons. You tell me how many you want and I will give them to you."

Zhang Xixi said: "How can this be possible? We heard that you deliver goods to the fruit wholesale market for 50 cents per catty. You...can you sell it to us for 50 cents per catty? My boyfriend and I are now

Money is tight."

Jia Simiao was really dumbfounded. This girl was really good at doing business. She didn't even blink when she told lies. We just met yesterday, and today they are boyfriend and girlfriend, which is too fast.

Old Li Tou insisted on giving it away, but of course Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi couldn't ask for it in vain. When Li Ergou came back, he was relieved. Isn't this simple? Both sides compromised, and it was only 40 cents per pound.

Already.

Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi looked at each other, feeling very happy.

Li Ergou asked: "How many pounds do you want? When I pick melons tomorrow morning, I also have a score in mind."

How does Zhang Xixi know how much he can ask for? Jia Simiao pondered and said: "Well, this is our first time doing small business, and we don't know how much we want. How about you keep five hundred pounds for me?

?”

A watermelon weighs ten kilograms. Five hundred kilograms means more than fifty watermelons and costs two hundred yuan. This is what Jia Simiao and Zhang Xixi can currently afford.
