Standing in front of the cash register, Zhang Zian asked Lu Yiyun to order a batch of self-adhesive stickers from the Internet. He plans to follow the example of Reina and Carl's pet store, and put labels on each of his fish tanks, so that customers can know what kind of creatures are kept in the fish tanks, what kind of breeding environment they need, and how difficult it is to raise them without asking the clerk. .
This can greatly save the time of the clerk, otherwise it would be really annoying to ask every customer, and the clerk will inevitably lose patience after a long time.
When he was in Germany, he took a lot of photos, and sent them to Lu Yiyun about the label style, and asked her to pass them on to the e-commerce sellers.
As soon as I ordered this matter, a man with gray hair walked into the store with a smile on the left and right of the store door. The gray hair is not the popular "grandma gray" hair dye, but really gray.
Grandma Gu was still dressed similarly to the last time I saw her, with a pair of reading glasses hanging on her chest, a few small books under her armpits, and a red armband of "Neighborhood Committee Street Office" on her arm.
The old man was weak, Zhang Zian had already put on a jacket, and she was still wearing a down jacket, but it was normal, "February and August, don't dress like that".
This was Zhang Zian's first day back in the store, and he knew that someone would definitely come to him. After all, the Berlin Film Festival was such a big sensation. Regardless of whether people are praising or scolding, they are objectively making a name for Phimas.
"Hey, Grandma Gu, please sit down! Wang Gan, bring a chair for Grandma Gu!" He called out loudly.
Grandma Gu waved her hands with a smile, "No, no, I'll leave after saying a few words, grandma."
Nevertheless, Wang Gan moved a chair and asked her to sit down.
"Grandma Gu, I was going to thank the neighborhood committee for their help and support over the years, but I forgot the words when I was nervous..."
Zhang Zian explained nervously that he thought Grandma Gu had come here to inquire about the crime, because he didn't mention the neighborhood committee either in his acceptance speech or in the interview.
"Cough!" Grandma Gu waved her hands again and again, "Don't mention that. Grandma just happened to visit my grandson in other places and asked for a few days off. As a result, the newcomers from the neighborhood committee couldn't handle things... To be honest, Xiao Anzi It’s not easy for you to run a store by yourself, I’ve seen Grandma Gu, and I should have given more support, but the work of the neighborhood committee should be equal, you can’t treat one more favorably than another, right?”
Zhang Zian gave a thumbs up, "Grandma Gu, you said it so well! That's the reason!"
Grandma Gu chattered about for a while with the trivialities unique to the elderly, asked if she was used to the food in Germany, asked if there were any difficulties in running the business, and asked when the movie would be released. , said that when the time comes, the neighborhood committee will organize everyone to join in the show, and by the way, also concerned about Zhang Zian's personal problems, and vaguely reminded that it is best to find a Chinese girl to marry...
Zhang Zian's left ear went in and out of his right ear, and he said a few perfunctory words casually.
After exchanging pleasantries, Grandma Gu changed the subject and talked about serious business.
"Little Anzi, Grandma Gu came here today to tell you the truth!" She looked at no one around, lowered her voice, and said mysteriously.
"Oh? What's the matter, Grandma Gu? Is there a girl who has taken a fancy to me?" Zhang Zian lowered his voice in cooperation, making it almost like an underground party.
"That's not true, it was the last time I asked you to declare as a March 8 Red Banner Bearer." Grandma Gu put on her reading glasses.
"It's a May Day model worker." Zhang Zian corrected.
Grandma Gu slapped her thigh, "Yes, it's a May 1st labor model! This labor model was selected by our Dongcheng District...Grandma, let me tell you the truth, originally you didn't have much hope for Anzi, but since you won the award at the Bailin Film Festival... "
"It's Berlin, not Bailin." Zhang Zian corrected again, "The other award is not mine, it's Fimas."
"Cough! Look at my memory, grandma, I said Zhang Baizhi said it well!" She slapped her thigh again, ignoring the second half of the sentence.
Zhang Zian could only laugh along with him.
"Since you won this... Berlin Film Festival award, grandma, I found out that you are a model worker in Zhunxin Dongcheng District. You are absolutely sure!" Grandma Gu said, smacking her chest confidently.
However, Zhang Zian's expression upon hearing the news was not as ecstatic as she had expected.
"Xiao Anzi, why are you unhappy?" She asked in confusion.
Zhang Zian smiled wryly, "I'm very happy... Do model workers get bonuses?"
"Of course there are bonuses." Grandma Gu said, "There are 10,000 model workers in the province, 4,000 model workers in the city, and 1,000 model workers in Dongcheng District."
Well, mosquito legs are also meat, and 1,000 yuan is also money, which is better than nothing.
Grandma Gu said earnestly: "Xiao Anzi, Grandma knows that you young people think that model workers are just an honor, which is useless, but don't underestimate this honor, when the time comes, hanging the pennant and award certificate on the wall will be very beneficial to your business. The same two stores that have benefits, why don’t people come to buy things from the model worker’s store? Even if it’s more expensive, it’s more reassuring.”
Zhang Zian nodded seriously, indicating that Grandma Gu was right.
"And..." Grandma Gu lowered her voice again, "Grandma will let you know more, maybe you will be a model worker in Binhai City this year!"
"Really?" Zhang Zian was surprised, the meaning of city model workers is much more powerful than district model workers.
"Grandma doesn't dare to guarantee the ticket, but she is quite sure." Grandma Gu said, "Xiao Anzi, if you are really elected as a model worker in the city, you will be interviewed by the city leaders, and then the photo of you and the city leaders will be posted on the wall On the first line, whether it is industry and commerce, taxation, sanitation, fire protection, or urban management, they will all give you a little bit of support, and it will be more convenient to go to the government to go through some formalities."
Zhang Zian nodded frequently. What Grandma Gu said was true. Anyone who has done business knows how difficult it is to serve these departments.
He has seen in the movie that even the rich businessmen in the United States will hang a photo with the president in the most eye-catching position in the office. It is the same reason, saying that I am friends with the president, and you should think carefully before you punish me. .
This approach may seem vulgar, but it is really effective, giving confidence to swaying friends and deterring potential enemies.
"In addition to these, once there are any large-scale municipal projects, the city's model workers will be given priority. After being elected as a city model worker, Liang San, who was engaged in engineering in the street next to him, contracted to build the newly opened expressway to the west. You'll get rich..." Grandma Gu sighed, "But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, Anzi."
"That's not necessarily true." Zhang Zian laughed, "Maybe the municipal government is going to build a fish pond in a park or something. It needs to introduce a batch of fish, and I can bid for it at that time."
"Fish?" Grandma Gu put down her reading glasses suspiciously, and looked into the store, "Little Anzi, aren't there cats and dogs here? Where did you get the fish?"
Zhang Zian pointed to the next door and explained: "Grandma Gu, didn't I sell the shoe store next to me a while ago, and I'm planning to open a branch in the next few days, mainly for raising fish and other aquatic creatures, and the name of the store is Qiyuan If the neighborhood committee of the aquarium wants to raise fish, I will send you a few for free."
"Don't! Don't! What's the purpose of the neighborhood committee raising fish? There's a lot of work to do, how can I have time to serve the fish?" Grandma Gu shook her head, "But it's good to have an aquarium. There seem to be quite few aquariums in our city. There were a few before, but the business conditions were not very good.”
He was joking, even if the municipal project needed to build a fish pond, he would not raise any expensive fish in the fish pond, he probably just bought some koi and threw it in, but Grandma Gu had a different opinion on this.
"Xiao Anzi, this matter is really uncertain. Grandma, let me read you a new document issued by the city government." She took the small notebook under her arm, turned out a page of the red-headed document, and read: " …After the research of the municipal party committee, the city will do a good job in economic transformation in the future, abandon the extensive economic development at the cost of high energy consumption and high pollution, and gradually transform the city into a new type of seaside garden city oriented by entertainment and tourism. "
"Did you hear that? Entertainment and tourism-oriented, that is to say, in the future, Binhai City will vigorously support related enterprises, institutions and individuals. Xiao Anzi, you won that award in Berlin, so it has something to do with entertainment and tourism, right?" After she finished reading, she folded the document and put it away again.
"Let's get a little more involved." Zhang Zian corrected, "Actually, Femas won the award, not me..."
He used to pay little attention to these policy documents, and basically did not watch local news channels, because he subconsciously felt that these things were far away from his life, but now they are unknowingly related to policies.
"That's it." Grandma Gu said earnestly, "The entire Chinese economy is undergoing transformation, and we can no longer follow the old path of pollution first and then governance. Our Binhai City can't fall behind either. Little Anzi, get ready, maybe when Opportunities come, and when they come, we must seize them.”
"Grandma Gu, you are so right." Zhang Zian said sincerely.
Older gingers are more spicy.
He used to think that the grandmothers and aunts of these neighborhood committees had no other skills other than racking their brains to collect fees. Now it seems that they underestimated them. Standing on the wrong team.
Grandma Gu nodded in satisfaction, got up and said, "Okay, grandma, I just came here today to congratulate you, I didn't expect to talk so much... It's getting late, grandma, I'll take my leave first, and there are a few others from the family. Sanitation fees were not collected."
Zhang Zian sent her outside the store, and she took a look at the next door with great interest, and gave some layman's advice on the aquarium's furnishings, before turning around and leaving, rushing to other businesses on the street.
