The new store opened, beaming with joy.
For Zhou Ze, the decoration and rent of the new store, as well as all the expenses you can imagine, are actually not paid by Zhou Ze.
Xu Qinglang gave half of it, and the remaining half was the money from Bai Yingying's funeral objects.
Of course, Xu Qinglang is going to "semi-retire" next, and he only plans to sell coffee and make snacks in the bookstore, and live a healthy life.
To make money, you can only rely on Zhou Ze.
Fortunately, everyone is not very suspicious of Zhou Ze's ability to make money. The new store is located in the South Street. There is a lot of traffic, and there should be a lot of ghost traffic.
As long as Boss Zhou carries forward the professionalism that is not afraid of suffering and staying up late, and keeps sending these ghosts who come to the door to hell to undergo reform and re-behave, it should not be a big problem to earn a lot of ghost money.
At that time, everyone will squat together at the door of the bookstore to burn paper money and wait for someone to drop their wallets. Even the handling fee to go to the bank will be waived.
The overall tone of the bookstore is soft and dark, and the bookshelves inside are not very densely placed. Newspapers and magazines that are updated quickly are in a row, novels are in a row, and other serious books are in a separate area.
As for things like teaching materials, Zhou Ze didn't go into them.
The bookstore has a second floor, which is divided into three rooms and a bathroom, which can be regarded as everyone's living area.
? On the first day of opening, there were no fireworks, no flower basket salutes, everything seemed very simple and peaceful.
The old Taoist cleaned up with Bai Yingying very playfully, while Zhou Ze sat behind the bar and sipped the cocktail that Xu Qinglang had just made.
After taking a sip and putting down the wine glass, the little monkey picked up the wine glass and secretly took a sip. Then he found it extremely unpleasant and kept sticking out his tongue.
Tang Shi is alone in the bedroom upstairs. She is very homely. If she has nothing to do, she can stay in the room all day and she will not feel bored.
When everything was packed and ready to welcome guests, it was already after dusk, and the sky had already dimmed.
Holding a plaque in one hand, Bai Yingying hung up the "Late Night Bookstore" sign, then jumped down, clapped her hands, and smiled contentedly after confirming that she was well placed.
Later, according to the boss's instructions, she also hung up and fixed the two couplet plaques "I listen to it" and "I heard it like this" on the left and right ends respectively.
This is a sign brought back from the old store.
Bai Yingying asked Zhou Ze the meaning of "I heard it" and "I heard it like this", and Zhou Ze explained that it was simply a story he heard by himself and told everyone.
?It does not represent my own point of view, and everyone just listens to it for fun and does not need to take it seriously.
The bookstore is still engaged in the business of dead people, and the business of living people can only be regarded as an addition. After all, there is a "Tongcheng Bookstore" not far from South Street. It is a big bookstore that specializes in selling physical books. It is difficult to compete with it. It's not unusually large, and it's not necessary at all.
Zhou Ze remembered that "Tongcheng Bookstore" was regarded as the most influential representative of bookstores in the hearts of Tongcheng people when he was a child, but in recent years, with the continuous compression and recession of the physical book market, Tongcheng Bookstore has also reduced its business area , compared with the heyday of the past, it looks a lot shabby.
It can only be said that the popularity of mobile phone and screen reading has made most people gradually forget the habit of reading with ink and paper.
Everything is done and on track, and the next step is to wait for the business to come.
In fact, the business is also very fast. From the official opening at 7 o'clock in the evening to now, several groups of customers have come, but they are all living people who ordered a cup of coffee or other drinks and sat there to rest and chat.
When the living person came, Zhou Ze didn't move at all. On the contrary, Xu Qinglang was too busy to greet and make drinks.
It was already 9:30 after seeing off these groups of guests, Xu Qinglang took a sip of water, and looked at Zhou Ze who was sitting on the rocking chair constantly shaking, feeling very unbalanced in his heart!
"Old Zhou, I think we can hang a sign saying, 'The living are not allowed to enter', what do you think?"
"Then the business and industry will come to the door the next day." Zhou Ze rejected Xu Qinglang's proposal without hesitation.
"But I feel that this is more tiring than opening a noodle shop." Xu Qinglang looked sad.
He opened a noodle restaurant before, and not many people actually went to the restaurant to eat. Most of the orders were for takeaway. He just closed the takeaway software if he wanted to rest, but now that people come in, you can¡¯t put People push it out?
"Look, this is not"I have a daughter." Xu Qinglang translated.
"Then your daughter must have burned a lot of paper money for you?" The old man rubbed his hands.
When the old woman heard the words, she was taken aback for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "The family conditions are not good." (Translated by Xu Qinglang)
"The family conditions are not good?" The old man was not discouraged, and continued: "It's okay, paper money is not expensive anyway, as long as your child has you in his heart, paper money can be more."
"Lying on a hospital bed, I have no money for medical treatment." (Translated by Xu Qinglang) The old woman said, put down her chopsticks, and wiped away her tears.
"This is pitiful." The old man wiped his tears along with him.
Bai Yingying also mumbled, feeling a little uncomfortable.
"My niece asked me on the hospital bed if I should continue to spend money on the treatment. I was lying on the bed, unable to speak or move. She cried and said to me, if I don't want to continue the treatment, just blink. If I don't blink, even if it's a waste of money, I will be cured."
"This girl is not bad." The old Taoist said, "What did you do?"
"I blinked, and then I came home from the hospital, and then I died." The old woman continued to wipe her tears.
"It's not easy. You are also thinking about your children, and you are so great. It is not easy, and children have to live." The old Taoist grieved together.
In fact, there are many such things in reality, especially when facing some terminal illnesses, it means that you have to constantly throw money into it, and many families cannot afford this way of spending money to treat diseases.
"Aunt, you are very great." Bai Yingying.
"I'll pour you another glass of wine." Xu Qinglang said.
On the one hand, seeing the tearful eyes of the people around him, Zhou Ze couldn't laugh or cry.
He pointed to the old woman's eyes that had been staring wide open since she entered the door, and asked:
"Why are you blinking?"
The old woman heard the words,
Do not cry,
Immediately said viciously:
"She asked me,
Mom, let me ask you, if you don't want to be cured anymore, just blink. If you don't blink, even if it's a waste of money, you have to cure me.
Then,
Waited for five minutes,
I can't help it,
Blinked.
Immediately she began to wipe away her tears and said:
good,
mom,
I know what you mean,
We are dying. "(Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
