After Chen Yuan and Liu Chuan finalized the specific matter, this matter was settled like this.
Seeing that the weather was getting hotter and hotter, Shen Mingyuan went to set up a stall under the sun every day, and one day he was almost so hot that he suffered from heat stroke, but Shen Huai even brought a car to carry it back for him.
These days, Chen Yuan was busy drawing sketches at home, and didn't pay attention to Shen Mingyuan's life. In fact, he is earning a lot more money now than before, so his life should be relaxed, and he should rest when he should. He shouldn't be as nervous as before.
But Shen Mingyuan knows what it's like to be poor. After being poor for more than 20 years, the days of being looked down upon by others almost drove people crazy. It's all hard money, and you have to work harder while you are young. If you don't work now, what will you do when you get old
With this in mind, Shen Mingyuan sells melon seeds desperately every day, with almost no time to rest. Sometimes Shen Huai secretly visits him to make meals for himself. The most common food is steamed buns and pickles. Occasionally, he can buy some steamed buns for lunch. It is one of the few that say it is so convenient and cheap.
We can only ask him to come to Shen's house for a meal every week, so that he will not suffer from malnutrition.
The weather is hot in summer, the sun outside is already very poisonous, and the business in the morning is not particularly good. Both Shen Huai and Chen Yuan suggested that he should not be allowed to set up a stall during the day.
However, since Shen Mingyuan lost his furniture business, he was particularly concerned about the business of setting up a stall, and he didn't want to miss any time for setting up a stall.
When this silly boy was brought back by his brother, his whole body was already drenched in cold sweat. If it was a little later, he would have fainted.
Chen Yuan gave him first aid measures, and he managed to recover. It would be impossible to watch Shen Mingyuan continue like this, but this kid has a stubborn personality, and nothing can stop him from setting up a stall to make money. It is impossible to watch him during the day, It's definitely not the way to keep him out.
So let Shen Huai buy him a big umbrella, and put the umbrella on when he goes out to set up a stall, so that he can't get out of the sun
Using an umbrella can solve part of the problem, but the weather is still very hot, so Chen Yuan thought of setting up a stall to sell cold drinks along the way. Shen Mingyuan, who has such a strong endurance, can't stand such a hot weather, and ordinary people may feel even hotter.
I want to eat cold when it is hot, so cold drinks are definitely the best choice.
However, there are several types of cold drinks, and the choice of cold drinks is also particular. First of all, it still meets two conditions, one is good taste, the other is very cheap, and the third is easy to make and low cost.
Besides, this secret recipe is for Shen Mingyuan to use, if it is done too cumbersomely, it will take up his time for frying melon seeds.
In the end, there are two choices, one is orange popsicles, and the other is orange ice water.
Orange popsicles need to be made with abrasive tools, and there are already many people selling popsicles. Now you can see middle-aged men pushing bicycles everywhere in the streets. There is a thick cold drink box on the back seat, because popsicles are very It is common, so Chen Yuan thinks that orange-flavored ice water is the best choice.
What's more, ice water doesn't need grinding tools, only packaging bags are needed, and the packaging bags for cold drinks are made by special factories, and they can be used directly after being wholesaled and sterilized.
Put the ice water in a packaging bag and seal it with a plastic sealer. In this way, a bag of ice water costs five cents, excluding the one-cent outer packaging cost and one-cent seasoning cost. There is a freezer in the frozen Shen family that can be used for free. The main ingredient is boiled water, so a bag of ice water has a profit of three cents, because its timeliness is only in the summer months, so it is similar to the money earned by melon seeds.
Although the profit is very thin, this product is very easy to make. You can make hundreds of bags of ice water in the time it takes to fry a pot of melon seeds. The taste is Chen Yuan's secret recipe. It can be said to be clean, cheap and delicious, and it is very convenient to carry , The packaging bag is strong and tight, just bite the bag and drink the ice water directly.
As for the orange ice water, Chen Yuan didn't plan to split the bill with Shen Mingyuan. As long as Shen Mingyuan spent ten yuan to buy out the method of making orange ice water, all the net profits in the future would be his own.
The fifty-fifty split before was just to take care of Shen Mingyuan's self-esteem. The money is actually not much, and this recipe is not a rare thing. It is not at the same level as the multifunctional study desk and chair, let alone the same thing, but this secret recipe What he bought was Shen Mingyuan's own, and it had nothing to do with Chen Yuan. He was responsible for whether he made money or not.
Shen Mingyuan resolutely bought the secret recipe of orange ice water. It was the first time for him to take the recipe by himself and exercise and start a business by himself. After all, he always wanted to be independent, and he certainly couldn't rely on his second sister-in-law forever.
In the evening, after the orange ice water was ready, let the whole family taste the taste, which was highly praised by the children.
Dabao Erbao firmly believes that someone will buy this thing at the school gate, and it is most suitable to drink a bag with great enthusiasm.
However, because children tend to have stomach problems if they eat too much cold drinks, Chen Yuan asked each of the children to taste some, and they were not allowed to eat any more, which made Dabao Erbao Niuniu and the others lick their mouths greedily.
"Wait until the next time I ask your third uncle to make something that is not iced."
The next day, at the entrance of the elementary and middle schools, orange-flavored ice water appeared, and the ice water can be frozen into ice cubes. There are two options: ice water can be drunk directly, and the ice cubes can be licked slowly. It tastes completely different. .
Shen Mingyuan's ice water is packed in a foam cardboard box after being frozen at home, and some ice cubes are also put in the cardboard box, so that the continuous cooling can last for a whole day.
He set up a stall and took out a cold drink sign with that written on it. It didn't take long for someone to come up and ask for a purchase.
The ultra-low price of five cents has made many people eager to spend money to relieve their heat.
It was really because the weather was so hot that some parents came out at noon to buy groceries and pick up their children from school, so while waiting at the school gate, they were covered in the sun as if they had exploded.
Just at this time, when I saw Shen Mingyuan selling cold drinks, it was like seeing a source of water in the desert. Everyone was so excited that they quickly surrounded his stall, and some even bought some melon seeds by the way. go back.
When the parents hold the ice water bag, they feel that the packaging is very convenient. After they bite into the mouth and drink it, they feel the cold, sour, sweet and delicious taste, which nourishes the hot and dry heart. It is really comfortable and thirst-quenching.
The primary school students also used their money to buy ice water after school, and some bought five or six bags directly to go home. The drinks were delicious and cheap. Shen Mingyuan's ice water business was booming.
By noon, the ice water was sold out, and Shen Mingyuan planned to close the stall and go home.
There are very few stalls on the school side, and there are only a few hawkers in twos and threes. Because today's business is good, he plans to set up stalls here in the next few days. The place opposite him is a small toy stall with a lot of spinning tops, cards, and bombs. Beads, and hairpin bow decorations.
In front of the small toy stand was a thin young girl with a winking ponytail. The girl looked to be in her twenties, with a pair of almond eyes and a pretty bridge of nose. She was a handsome girl and looked quiet.
There was no one in Shen Mingyuan's stall, and occasionally he looked towards the opposite position, and didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but once he noticed a detail, a student went to her stall to buy toys, and asked how to play, The girl didn't speak at all, she just pointed at the toy with her finger, wanting to demonstrate how to play it.
But I didn't communicate well with the children who bought things, and the children just left without toys.
So that girl didn't sell many things for a long time, and from time to time, she would look at Shen Mingyuan's hot-selling ice water, with a hint of envy flashing in her eyes.
"The city management is here! The city management is here!"
At this time, a vendor suddenly yelled hoarsely from a distance. The sound was like lighting a gun, which shocked all the vendors at the school gate.
Shen Mingyuan also packed up his ice water stall anxiously. He was thinking that this was the first time he met the city management during his days of setting up a stall, but he heard from other people that if he was caught, his property would definitely be confiscated and he would be fined. .
Just as he was about to push the bicycle and run away, he saw the girl across from him flustered and spilled the toy cards all over the floor, and tears were about to come down.
