Chapter 215 [215] Three Thousand

Although it is already March in the Gregorian calendar, late spring cold forces them to wear thinner cotton coats. Zhuo Lin is wearing thin cotton coats made of new cotton and floral cloth, which is suitable for wearing during late spring cold. She wears a layer of single clothes on the outside to prevent dirty clothes and can be changed. The so-called single clothes are also clothes made of ordinary cotton cloth, and the pants are also thin cotton pants, either black or blue. Rich people in this era buy tweed coats, with styles of cotton pants and black leather shoes. Zhuo Lin dare not be so arrogant, so she wears her own cotton coats as the crowd.

The soil is really soil, but it is very comfortable to wear and down-to-earth. Wear clothes from the age of each era, so that we can be decent!

Although she felt that there was nothing to be together for high school classmates, she felt embarrassed to refuse the two boys so proactive, so she could only take the person home.

When she passed by the vegetable market, she saw a chicken seller. Xu Yang insisted on buying one, but she didn't stop him, so she had to go there. Considering that there was still bacon brought back from her hometown at home, it was enough for five people to eat.

When there are many people, it is best to make chicken with pancakes and add bacon, vermicelli, and corn flour pancakes that are delicious. Oh, just thinking about the taste makes you saliva.

In the capital of the 1970s, as long as you can pick up firewood, the floor pot exists. If you don’t think the firewood is enough, you can put a firewood underneath and put a coal ball on it. This must be able to use a large iron pot to cook the flavor of the ground pot chicken.

Because there are many people, Zhuo Lin bought potatoes, tofu and sweet potatoes as ingredients. After these taste, they taste very good.

When I got home, I took out two round peppers from the clay pot. This pepper is not spicy and has a very meaty taste, but it also tastes very good. Adding two large round peppers to the ground pot chicken will improve the taste.

Zhuo Lin said that he rented a house. The old man and the old lady were the landlords (those had been agreed with the old man long ago). He took good care of her, so when he brought it back, Zhuo Lin said that he wanted everyone to eat together, no one expressed his dissatisfaction. Zhuo Lin liked to prepare all the side dishes, and then brought them to the yard to stir-fry, and the seasonings and other things were prepared in advance. Then he would put them in all at once. What about onions, ginger and garlic, they would also be directly found in the large clay pot.

Xu Yang and Zhou Tao visited her hut and saw the signboard in the yard and the tricycle. After admiring Zhuo Lin, they also felt arrogant. She, a girl, could support herself to this point. As a boy, they really felt ashamed.

"Your clay pot is a treasure chest, there are everything, but there are some dishes that are not seasonal?"

Regarding off-seasonal vegetables, Zhuo Lin's unified answer was: "I know a friend who is engaged in agricultural research. He has a few acres of land in the suburbs of Beijing, specializing in this off-seasonal vegetable farming. He usually brings me some. I also want to go back and learn from him to see if I can try it in this yard."

This was the first time Xu Yang and Zhou Tao heard about vegetables that were off-season. With Zhuo Lin's popularity, the two of them suddenly realized and scratched their heads with some annoyance.

"Did we choose the wrong major? Why do I think we should go to Agricultural University?"

"Your business administration will be able to manage food sooner or later in the future."

Zhuo Lin looked at Xu Yang in surprise: "Aren't you from the physics department?"

Zhou Tao laughed secretly next to him: "Student Zhuo Lin, it seems that you are not paying attention to other schools except for you Huaqing. When did you hear that Renmin University has a physics department? Is he studying business administration good? There is an uncle in the Xuyang family who works in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau of our province."

Zhuo Lin frowned: "His uncle works in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. What is the connection between him and his studies in business administration? You wouldn't think that this business administration is to work in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau in the future? Although I don't know that there is no physics department in Renmin University, I know that business administration is a discipline with a relatively broad foundation. You can choose your professional direction according to your hobbies. For example, corporate management, marketing, human resources, financial management, accounting, corporate investment, etc. It seems that Xuyang, you are destined to develop in the business direction in the future!"

In fact, Zhuo Lin thinks that studying business administration is meaningless now, and learning law is better than business administration. But since she has chosen it, she doesn’t know how to say anything. On the contrary, Zhou Tao’s mechanical engineering is more down-to-earth, and it should be seven, eight, nine or even two thousand years later, mechanical engineering is the mainstream direction, especially in the period of rapid development of industry, as long as it is used properly, it is not impossible to grow into an engineer in the future.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Xu Yang's people had taken the exam in vain. In fact, no matter when, computers were a mainstream subject. However, there was no such advanced subject in this era. In addition to computers, there were also law, which was suitable for boys. Economics, finance, statistics, and accounting, which was not suitable for the situation in this era. Archives studies were suitable for girls.

But as an outsider, she shouldn’t say that what major is her decision to choose? She can’t say it well here, that’s not a blow to others?

"This yard is not small, you can actually raise a chicken so you don't have to buy eggs."

The old man and the old lady had thought about this, but the old lady was in poor health before, and three meals a day were still a problem for the two of them, so raising chickens became nonsense. Now when Zhou Tao mentioned this, Zhuo Lin smiled and touched.

"I have this plan. After a few days of warmth, I will buy a few hens."

She built a chicken coop in the middle of the yard. The land in the middle of the yard cannot be wasted. Even if it is only a few square meters, it is enough for them to eat three bites. There are actually places behind the yard wall where you can grow some winter melons and pumpkins. This place is called the city, but in fact, it is also a way to grow something and raise some poultry. Save whatever you want, and you can accumulate little or no amount.

Anyone who has passed through this era is particularly good at living, and so is Zhuo Lin.

However, Xu Yang looked at their east wing and asked, "I see that it is for rent at the door, why? Do you have to rent this room too?"

There is one room in the east and west wing rooms, and there are three main rooms. The living room in the middle is the living room. The toilet is in the left corner of the door. It is said to be a toilet, but it is actually a tank. If it is full, it is necessary to mention that the nearby public toilet has collapsed. In fact, it is a simple toilet surrounded by asbestos tiles, which is convenient for the old couple to solve the problem in bad weather. Zhuo Lin usually helps to pour it down.

The kitchen built on the right side of the gate has no door, but it is clean and neatly packed with coal balls in the corner. There are about five or six square meters of open space in the yard. It is usually used to grow vegetables. If you feed chickens, it must be built in the corner that crosses the main room and the west wing room, and there is no place else.

"Not only does the east wing have to be rented out, but also one of our main rooms. If Linlin hadn't been renovated, we actually wanted her to move into the main room so that she could rent out the whole room."

A house like them that is about 20 square meters can be charged more or less for three or five yuan a month. With this three or five yuan, eating meat and buying vegetables is enough.

At the beginning, he was holding the glimmer of hope that his children could come back, and he was always empty and couldn't bear to rent it out. Now he has broken up completely. The old couple knew that Zhuo Lin was enough to live in one room by herself, so they wanted to rent out other houses.

But not everyone can rent it. Look at the old, young, and girls in this yard, so since the New Year has passed, I have never found a suitable person.

Xu Yang suddenly had a bold idea: "Do you want to expand this stall you set up?"

As we all know, Haidian District has gathered many universities. Coincidentally, the schools of the three of them are all in Haidian District. If he frees up the weekend and concentrates on selling food, isn’t it better than doing odd jobs?

He also saw that the tricycle was welded very well. If they rode their bikes to the gate of their school to sell the snacks made by Zhuolin, not only did they increase the amount, but did they also gain popularity?

Zhuo Lin is so sophisticated. The word "expansion" used by Xu Yang made him understand in an instant: "Tell me what you think."

"On the weekend we come to help you make semi-finished products together, and then we put semi-finished products to sell at the gates of each school. You can give us a wholesale price. When we go to sell, it is equivalent to making your signature. You will definitely not suffer any loss. The wholesale price is profitable. So I suggest that the east wing room be transformed into a workshop. We rent the main room. If we both help you do it, your workload will be reduced a lot. What do you think?"

Zhou Tao, who was standing aside, was shocked when he heard this proposal, because he had never thought about it. Now seeing Xu Yang so eager to try, he was a little excited.

"Is it OK? Is it OK?"

"Do you have the money you invested in the early stage?" Welding tricycles are enough to buy pots, pans, and briquettes, all of which are the costs!

Xu Yang smiled like a fox: "We didn't have money in the early stage, but we can work for you, when will we pay it back, and when will we pay them again?"

Zhou Tao was a little weak at first, but now after Xu Yang’s advice, I think it’s really profitable, especially during the whole summer vacation. What should I do when I stayed in Beijing to make money, isn’t it good?

In fact, Zhuo Lin's business really has the potential to expand, but she can't work alone and earn more than 30 yuan a month, and she is already very satisfied. But if the two of them join in now, they will earn more than 20 to 30 yuan in the future. Moreover, she has many ideas in her mind. All they want is semi-finished products and has no intention to ask her to give them the secret recipe. This is considered to be extremely respectful to her. If she wholesales these to them, it would be a good idea!

But she still needs to think about it in detail, so she said to the two: "In this way, I'll think about it tonight. If you have time on the weekend, come and have a look at my business and taste the cakes I made. If you think it's OK, then let's talk about cooperation in detail. As for renting a house, there's no hurry."

Xu Yang and Zhou Tao were both very happy. After eating and drinking, the two of them took the lead with their own thoughts, leaving Zhuo Lin to clean up while thinking about the specific implementation plan.
