Chapter 27: All are drama queens

~11 min read 2,184 words

"Go, go, go, go play on the side!" The boss had never looked at Wu Cheng straight, just like chasing flies, waving his hands impatiently, "I am a non-staple food store, what do I want your calendar for."

Wu Cheng looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "Cheap, six yuan a copy."

The boss was stunned. Six yuan a copy? He hadn't thought about it, entering some calendars and New Year pictures to sell before the New Year, but the purchase price was too high, especially the calendar. The quality was not very good, the purchase price was seven or eight yuan, the quality was good, it was more than ten yuan, or even twenty. He was a non-staple food store, what if he couldn't sell them? This thing is not white vinegar or soy sauce, it doesn't have a shelf life, and it can be stored for a year or two. Calendars can't, it's just a month or so before the New Year. If it can't be sold after it passes, it can only be treated as waste.

"So cheap?"

Only then did the boss look at Wu Cheng, and then discovered that this kid was not old, and was wearing the work clothes of Jiangzhou Distillery. He was no stranger to Jiangzhou Distillery. Two years ago, he still had Big Gaoliang for sale in his store. In the past two years, Big Gaoliang was not easy to sell, so he didn't enter the goods again. Hmm? Why is this little brat so sneaky? This couldn't help but make his heart move: "Let me see your calendar, how is the quality."

Wu Cheng nodded and bowed, saying a series of good things, with a flattering look. If Zhou Andong saw it, he would definitely sigh that this kid was born late. If he was born a few decades earlier, he would definitely be a traitor.

"Look, this quality, it's not worse than the calendars on the market."

Being able to do business in this era, being an individual household, that's all a human spirit. As soon as he saw the calendar cover, his heart understood seven or eight points, and he looked at Wu Cheng with a smile.

"Kid, where did this calendar come from."

Wu Cheng's face changed, stuttering, and didn't say anything, reaching out to snatch the calendar back; "I'm not selling."

The boss's hand shrank: "Eh? What are you doing?"

Wu Cheng stared: "I'm not selling."

"You say not selling, and it's not selling." The boss looked at Wu Cheng with a smile, "This calendar, it shouldn't be circulating on the market."

It has to be said that Wu Cheng, this kid, is really a drama queen. The last moment he was staring, with a very stubborn look, the next moment he was tearful, as if he would cry at any time.

"Uncle, let me go, I don't want the calendar, I'll give it all to you."

The boss picked up the water pipe and took a puff: "How can that be, I am such a big person, can I bully a child like you?"

Wu Cheng gritted his teeth: "This Jiangzhou Jiangzhou Yugong Liquor is *** liquor given to big leaders in Jingcheng, internally called Red Dragon VIP, not on the market. This calendar is a matching New Year gift given to ministry and commission organs. Because the factory couldn't pay wages, and the New Year was coming, the family couldn't even open the pot, so I stole a few calendars to sell, wanting to get some money for the New Year. And didn't dare to sell in Jiangzhou, so I ran to the provincial capital."

Wu Cheng gritted his teeth: "This Jiangzhou Jiangzhou Yugong Liquor is a special supply liquor for the top leaders in the capital. We call it 'Red Dragon VIP' internally; it's not on the market. These calendars are the accompanying annual gifts for ministry and commission officials. Because the factory couldn't pay wages and the New Year is right around the corner, and our families are struggling to put food on the table, I stole a few calendars to sell, hoping to scrape together some money for the New Year. I didn't dare sell them in Jiangzhou, so I ran to the provincial capital."

The boss flipped through the calendar, his eyes flickering: "This *** liquor is not for sale?"

Wu Cheng shook his head: "If it were for sale, how could the wages not be paid."

The boss said seemingly unintentionally: "Calendars can't sell for a few dollars. If you can get two boxes of this liquor, that's what you call having ability."

Wu Cheng stiffened his neck: "Who said I didn't get the liquor..." Halfway through, this kid immediately closed his mouth, looking at the boss very nervously.

The boss smiled: "How many bottles do you have, bring them over, I'll take them."

This old guy, as soon as he heard Jiangzhou Jiangzhou Yugong Liquor was ***, not on the market, he was moved. After all, the power of the two words *** is not generally big in the hearts of the common people. If this liquor could be obtained, not to mention how much money it could sell for, just placing it on the store's shelf, the style would be full.

As for being cheated, look at this calendar. Although the people on it are not recognized, they are so beautiful, they must be big stars. Liquor advertised by big stars, and the calendar is a New Year gift for ministry and commission organs, how could the liquor be fake.

Wu Cheng hesitated: "I only have one bottle."

"Only one bottle?" The boss didn't quite believe it.

Wu Cheng said: "The packaging box is a bit big, it's not very easy to take this bottle of liquor out."

The boss nodded: "Alright, one bottle is one bottle, I'll take it."

Wu Cheng hesitated for a while, the boss frowned: "What's wrong? Not willing to sell to me?"

Wu Cheng said: "It's the price!"

"Price?" The boss said unhappily, "Just now I saw, there is a price on the calendar, eight."

Wu Cheng said: "That price has no practical significance. This is *** liquor, not on the market, don't want eight, even if it's eight, there is no place to buy it."

The boss asked: "How much do you want to sell?"

Wu Cheng pondered for a while: "One hundred!"

"Why don't you go rob?" The boss was a bit angry, "Just follow the marked price, if you don't agree, I will call your factory and report you."

Wu Cheng was full of anger, after a long while he gritted his teeth: "Good, eight, do you want the calendar?"

"Want!" The boss smiled. Without the calendar, who would know the liquor is ***, even if said, no one would believe it: "But, six yuan is a bit expensive."

"You..." Wu Cheng was so angry that his face turned red.

The boss looked at Wu Cheng with a smile, and didn't speak. Finally, Wu Cheng compromised: "Good, the liquor is at the hotel, I'll go back and get it for you."

The boss patted the calendar in his hand: "Put it here, wait until you bring the liquor, and settle the account together."

Wu Cheng nodded. At the moment of turning around, a trace of triumphant smile appeared on his face, and then he walked out of the store quickly and returned to the hotel.

"Back so fast?" Huang Shanhe was lying on the bed smoking. Seeing Wu Cheng come back, he turned over and sat up.

Wu Cheng laughed: "I sold a bottle of liquor, came back to get it." After speaking, he hugged a bottle of liquor and ran.

For the next half day, Wu Cheng sold all the calendars and liquor. And the other six people didn't have such good luck. Even the calendars didn't sell, let alone the liquor. When they heard that Wu Cheng had sold all the liquor, they opened their mouths wide, looking at Wu Cheng.

"Fuck!" Jiang Guoguang cursed, "How did you sell it, kid, hurry up and tell us."

Wu Cheng asked: "You guys tell me first, where did you go."

A few people talked about it in a mess. Wu Cheng curled his lips while listening, which made Jiang Guoguang very unhappy, and he patted him on the head.

"Little brat, what are you curling your lips for."

Wu Cheng rubbed his head and said dissatisfiedly: "You guys are stupid. Going to state-run stores, people won't pay attention to you."

Jiang Guoguang stared, unconvinced: "Then where to go?"

"Go to individual stores, big or small doesn't matter, don't push our liquor as soon as you come up, you have to use the calendar to guide, let him be interested in the liquor himself." Wu Cheng said and waved his hands, "Saying too much you guys won't understand, like this, let's go eat first, I'll help you sell tomorrow."

Hu Yang City is more than thirty kilometers away from Jiangzhou. It was originally a county under Jiangzhou's jurisdiction, upgraded to a prefecture-level city, implementing a leadership system of the city managing the county. At the same time, the Lianhong District was formed, and one county, two districts, and one county-level city managed by Jiangzhou were placed under the leadership of Hu Yang City.

And the development of Hu Yang City since its upgrade to a prefecture-level city can be called rocket speed, whether it is urban planning and construction or commercial economy, Jiangzhou, the former father, can't catch up.

The next day, at noon, past eleven o'clock, Yao Jun combed a big back head, hung a big gold chain around his neck, wore a black suit, and held a genuine leather briefcase, appearing in front of the Hu Yang Municipal Committee Guesthouse.

Beside him followed a very beautiful short-haired girl, who pushed the door open very respectfully: "President Yao, please come in."

This scene made passersby look sideways, all guessing who this man who was not tall but had a lot of style was. The little honey he brought was actually so beautiful.

Yao Jun stepped in, a waiter walked over quickly, the tone was very respectful: "Sir, how many are you?"

The Municipal Committee Guesthouse was only opened to the outside world last year. It was originally to reduce the financial burden, but didn't expect that as soon as it opened, the business would be so hot that it was unimaginable. And those who can come here to eat are either powerful or rich, so the waiter's service attitude was still quite good.

Yao Jun said: "Today I want to entertain a very important guest, from Jingcheng, arrange a private room for me."

The waiter said embarrassedly: "Sorry, sir, the private room is gone."

Yao Jun frowned, helplessly saying: "Then arrange a scattered table."

"Good!" The waiter made a gesture of invitation, "Please follow me."

There were more than twenty scattered tables, and half of the guests had already been served at this time. The waiter led Yao Jun to a table next to the cashier.

"This is the menu!"

Yao Jun waved his hand: "No need to look at the menu, arrange eight of your most expensive and best signature dishes for me."

The waiter was stunned, then smiled, took the menu and left. She was the first time she encountered a guest who ordered dishes like this, walked a few steps, and looked back again.

After a while, Zhou Andong entered the guesthouse. This guy cut a crew cut, wore a gray casual suit, and had shiny black leather shoes on his feet. Although he was only one meter tall, the white shirt inside, the slightly rolled-up sleeves, made him look very capable and refreshing.

Jiang Yuyue was in a small black suit, with a beautiful face, perfect figure, and outstanding temperament. Standing beside Zhou Andong, it really made people look like a talented man and a beautiful woman.

As soon as the two appeared, they attracted everyone's attention. Because men and women with such outstanding temperament like Zhou Andong and Jiang Yuyue are really rare in this small city.

It was that waiter again, hurriedly walked over, and said with a more respectful attitude than treating Yao Jun: "Sir, Madam, how many are you?"

"We are looking for someone." Jiang Yuyue had already seen Yao Jun, pointed her finger, and then walked over with Zhou Andong.

"Oh my, Brother Dong, finally waited for you." Yao Jun stretched out both hands, grabbing Zhou Andong's hand and shaking it.

Zhou Andong smiled and said: "Kept you waiting."

"Don't dare, don't dare!" Yao Jun stepped aside, "Please sit!" Then said to the waiter, "What good liquor do you have here?"

The waiter said: "Mao liquor has it."

Yao Jun asked Zhou Andong: "What to drink?"

Zhou Andong smiled slightly: "Who drinks Mao liquor now, do you have Jiangzhou Imperial Tribute Liquor?"...
