Chapter 6 Coal Boss

In three days, Zhang Shang became significantly thinner and he walked the entire city of Yuci.

I have traveled to nearly 240 convenience stores, and there are 200 people who want goods.

The rest, either the boss is not able to make the decision.

Either he doesn't believe in Zhang Shang, he is too young.

Either the tone is bad, the conversation cannot be reached.

He also tried to go to some large supermarkets to promote sales, but after only one, he decided to say goodbye.

I don’t have enough time to try my luck in the supermarket. I waited for three hours before I met the supervisor. Isn’t my time?

There are also bosses who asked those who were in charge, Zhang Shang ignored them and turned around and left.

There is a joke.

Give the beggar 50 yuan and ask him to go to the high building and shout 100 times that I love you.

As a result, the beggar returned the money to the person who gave the alms and slapped him in the face.

With this time, I can beg for 50 yuan without shouting...

In the morning, I have a big bowl of noodles for 7 yuan at noon, and stay in the worst guesthouse at night. It costs 30 yuan a night and only has a simple bed. This is Zhang Shang’s life.

The weather was covered in dust, the face was covered in frost, the blisters on the feet were worn out and then raised, and they were all formed into cocoons.

Back at Yuci Railway Station again, the box of Taigu cakes I brought when I came was no longer there, there was only one piece of paper, recording more than 200 phone calls, and needed a thousand boxes of Taigu cakes.

July 4th, morning.

At the same time, at 7:43 outside the train station, looking up at the sky above your head, Zhang Shang smiled, with more firmness in his eyes.

When he went back this time, his luck changed.

The green train drove "bang" and swayed, and the speed seemed slow.

Standing at the connection of the carriage, the signal of the small and spiritual communication is better, and it also appears quiet and there are few people.

He said to Fat Brother who was applying for the certificate and asked him to deliver his credit card to the train station.

He called Zhishengxiang's father again and asked the van to go to the Gulou Taigu Cake Factory.

Give Liu Deshun an order and prepare the goods.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties came out of the carriage, with a square face, a big back, a thin figure, a leather jacket that was worn as linoleum, shiny and shiny, black boots under his feet, and a smell of coal smoke.

Looking at this person from afar, I thought it was Brother Wen Qiang.

Seeing Zhang Shang looking at him, Zhu Xinning nodded lightly.

Take out a cigarette from the outer pocket of the leather jacket, take out one and hand it to Zhang Shang, not rude because he is a child.

Seeing someone handing a cigarette, Zhang Shang smiled and waved his hand, indicating that he would not smoke.

Zhu Xinning did not force himself, and habitually knocked the cigarette filter downward, knocked it on the cigarette box a few times, and then slapped it on his mouth.

Take out the matchbox, get a match and slash the side of the box, block the wind with one hand, lower your head and light a cigarette, take a deep breath, and throw out the burning match.

This set of movements is smooth and smooth, and it is not bad compared to Zhang's father, a 30-year-old smoker.

Perhaps no one was bored to speak, and there was only Zhang Shang in the carriage. Zhu Xinning asked: "Little brother, Gui Geng today?"

"16 years old." Zhang Shang was a little tired, his voice was vicissitudes.

During these three days of running around, I was only able to do an internship at Geely Welding Factory in my junior year. I called at 6:40 in the morning and worked until 10:30 in the evening, and I felt this kind of physical and mental fatigue.

You can sleep without a bed, lying on the ground and closing your eyes.

"You are still young, and your health is the capital." Zhu Xinning knew at a glance that he was in a bad state and advised him politely.

"Time doesn't wait for anyone." Zhang Shang looked at the scenery passing by quickly outside the train and said: "In this life, people only have so few opportunities to change their fortunes, so they have to seize them."

"Oh?" Zhu Xinning couldn't help but glance at him for a few more times and felt the strong emotions in his words. "Little brother still understands these?"

"I don't know much, I'm nagging."

Zhu Xinning was intrigued and glanced at the piece of paper in his hand, full of phone numbers. "Little brother is running for business?"

"The family can't get rid of the blame anymore. I'll take the summer vacation to sell Taigu cakes."

"I've eaten it, it's quite delicious." Zhu Xinning deliberately joked: "How is it selling?"

A 16-year-old kid, who gives it to anyone, knows that he is not selling well.

Zhang Shang heard what he meant, blinked and said, "Three days of net income of 7,400 yuan."

"Hmm?" Zhu Xinning frowned and looked at Zhang Shang carefully, feeling suspicious.

In 2005, the housing prices in Taigu, or the housing prices in some small county towns, were basically 600 to 800 yuan per square meter, and Zhang Shang earned 10 square meters in three days. How capable is this?

"Little brother, I'm not suspicious of you, it's not good to brag." Zhu Xinning extinguished the cigarette and threw the cigarette butt into the trash can on the wall of the carriage.

Zhang Shang didn't want to explain, but just had a faint smile on his face, and joked: "Brother, are you the legendary coal boss, right?"

"Hiss..." Zhu Xinning exhaled, alertness rose, and asked in a deep voice: "Have you seen me?"

"I haven't seen you, but I've seen other coal bosses go shopping before."

"Oh? How did they buy it?"

"The coal boss in ordinary people's impression must be a nouveau riche. He has to hang a big gold chain weighing three pounds on his neck, wear ten gold rings on his hand, wear gold and silver, and is extremely arrogant and spends a lot of money without blinking."

Zhang Shang continued: "The coal boss I have met is very ordinary. Although he drives luxury cars, he dresses like ordinary miners. His clothes are always linoleum felt and always black boots because they also have to go to the mine. Perhaps they are used to wearing such clothes. People who go to the mine do not see the light of day and are too lazy to take care of themselves, and they are always ungrateful."

"The coal boss I have ever met is a little worse than you and doesn't have such a nice hairstyle. He went to the mall to buy things, and the waiter saw him look like a miner, but he didn't treat him. As a result, he brought two large cardboard boxes half a person tall in the car, which was not at all. He took the money like paper and placed it in front of the waiter..."

After Zhang Shang finished speaking, he blinked, but he didn't expect that the person in front of him was really a coal boss.

"The story you told is very nice. I can't tell you the coal boss in your mouth, I know you."

Zhu Xinning took out a white card from his pocket on his shirt and handed it to Zhang Shang and said, "Come to Linfen when you have time to play with me."

After taking the business card, I glanced at it. There was no introduction on it, only the name "Zhu Xinning" and a phone call behind it.

Zhang Shang was a little embarrassed. "I don't have a business card..."

"Leave a name."

"My name is Zhang Shang, I'm very happy to meet you, Brother Zhu." He stretched out his hand and expressed his kindness.

"..." Shake hands in a wooden way.

Zhu Xinning, 46 years old this year, has seen all the vicissitudes of life, and has been tragic for officials, soldiers and businessmen.

Today, I suddenly realized that I was no match for a child.

At least, there has always been a disadvantage in words.

At his level, this is an incredible thing.

The "bang" sound of the train became slower and slower, and the "woo..." paused.

The conductor came over and opened the door.

"Brother Zhu, I'm here, see you another day." Zhang Shang waved his hand and got off the train.

"Okay." Zhu Xinning also waved his hand to say goodbye.

The train stops in Taigu for only 2 minutes and will depart soon.
