Chapter 145 Ring Toss Game 2
Jiang Shuhuai twisted his nose, and happily went out to greet the customers with a smile on his face.
When closing the stall and going home in the evening, Jiang Shuya counted the remaining small commodities. Most of the small commodities that were easy to be locked up had been given away. Only some toy guns, robots and lanterns, as well as gift-boxed building blocks and lifelike dolls were left.
The two sat contentedly in front of the table in the living room. They happily took out the canvas bag and Jiang Shuhuai poured out all the money in it. Seeing the scattered bills, he smiled so hard that he couldn't close his mouth. He leaned over the table and counted the money one by one. After a while, the data was added up to 3216.
According to the price recorded in Uncle San's account book, minus the approximate cost, the net profit was two thousand yuan. Jiang Shuya put away the two thousand yuan and joked;
"Do you regret quitting your job now? Which one earns more?"
Jiang Shuhuai scratched his ear and said cheerfully;
"I knew my elder sister would take me out to play. According to this calculation, as long as I set up the stall until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, I can easily become a millionaire."
"That's a must. I'm not saying this to you. Don't just work hard next time. Use your brain. Look, I'm the only one who plays with you. Your serious and academically savvy second sister doesn't play with you at all."
Jiang Shuya pointed at Shuhuai's forehead and said seriously;
"Don't tell my parents that I'm here with you, you hear me?"
Jiang Shuhuai looked puzzled;
"Why, you haven't told me why you ran away from home and had a conflict with your brother-in-law."
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. I'm helping you make money. Go cook. I'm hungry!"
Jiang Shuya looked impatient.
Jiang Shuhuai hung his head, not getting the answer he wanted, and reluctantly went to the kitchen, and then heard;
"There are only frozen dumplings in the refrigerator. Is that ok?"
"Sure, I eat everything. I'm not picky."
Jiang Shuya knew very well that she didn't cook or wash dishes, so she was never picky about food.
On the second day, Jiang Shuya took three times more goods from her uncle than yesterday, and also added toys with higher prices. Her uncle watched her distribute the goods with a smile on his face, and guessed that she must have tasted the sweetness yesterday, so he quickly asked:
"Xiao Ya, your cousin is at home watching TV dramas all day during the holiday, and her eyes are almost blind. I asked her to come over to help you, can you take care of her?"
Jiang Shuya opened her eyes wide when she heard this and said with a smile:
"Uncle San, are you kidding me? A business like yours is taught by example, so why do you need me to interfere? My cousin is still young and at the age of playing, so it's normal that she can't settle down to help you guard the stall."
"She's already sixteen, not a kid anymore. She stays at home doing nothing all day, and her mother can't control her. She always talks back at me, and we can't do anything about her."
Uncle San sighed helplessly. When it came to his daughter, he was actually overwhelmed. He was busy like a top all day long just to give his children a financially prosperous home.
An outsider settled down in Jinling City on his own, bought a house, moved his daughter's household registration from his hometown, and went to high school in Jinling. Fortunately, his cousin Jiang Shuyun was quite hardworking and had a talent for studying, but her relationship with her third aunt was very subtle and not as close as that of a mother and daughter.
After saying goodbye to their third uncle, Jiang Shuya and Jiang Shuhuai sat on a tricycle and first came to yesterday's Fenghuang West Street venue. After the two of them set up the stall, Jiang Shuya took a large canvas bag filled with spare goods and gave it to Jiang Shuhuai, then rode alone to Cha Ting East Street.
As soon as I arrived at the location, I saw a crowd of people on the street, people coming and going, and a lively scenic spot selling all kinds of things, even rare art acrobatics. The further I walked in, the more I discovered that there was a ring tossing game, and I felt that something was wrong.
It is normal to have such a prosperous East Street, which is close to the scenic area.
Jiang Shuya sat in the car and stood facing the ring-tossing stall for a long time, observing for a while. The man might have just arrived and found that the small commodities displayed on his stall were all cheap goods. Many toys and supplies were mostly disposable, with questionable quality. They were just cheap lottery tickets for temporary interest and fun, and many of them were really not presentable.
After observing for a while, Jiang Shuya continued to walk inside and finally found a larger area at the T-junction on the street corner. She arranged the goods neatly according to the size of the stone bricks. Just like yesterday, she placed the stationery that she had carefully selected for today in the front.
Music box glass toys and lifelike dolls were placed in the middle, and at the back were still lantern robots, toy guns, and exquisite porcelain dolls. Everything was available, and before they were put away, an elderly grandfather came to the stall holding a little girl of five or six years old.
The girl looked at her grandfather who kept pointing at the porcelain doll:
"Grandpa, I want that, buy it."
Jiang Shuya greeted the cute little girl politely:
"Little beauty, we are playing the ring tossing game. It costs one dollar per ring. Do you want to try it?"
"Then give us ten circles so she can experience it." Grandpa said as he handed over a ten-yuan bill.
Jiang Shuya drew the lines and quickly counted out ten circles for the little girl. Her grandfather stood beside her and looked at her with a smile, his eyes full of love.
The girl threw out several circles but none of them got close to the target. She threw out the last few circles in her hand but none of them hit the target. She was so anxious that she stamped her feet. The grandfather standing by asked for another twenty circles and told her to throw them one by one and not to throw them all out.
The girl understood what he meant and threw each circle carefully. However, due to lack of strength, she still got nothing. After throwing the last circle, the little girl looked at her grandfather with tears in her eyes, reluctant to part with the porcelain doll. Finally, the grandfather asked directly:
"Girl, are you selling this doll? My granddaughter really likes it."
Jiang Shuya smiled when she heard it, glanced at the little girl, and said softly:
"That porcelain doll costs fifty. How about this? You buy twenty rings. If you hit the target, it's yours. If you don't, I'll give it to you. It's not worth it for you to pay fifty now."
At this time, the girl stamped her feet, looked up at her grandfather expectantly, and received a look of agreement. She ran to the stall with her hands full of joy, picked up the ring on the ground and started throwing again. The grandfather smiled and took out another twenty yuan, nodding continuously:
"Thank you, girl! You are really good at business and you are a conscientious person."
The little girl stopped for a moment, and after a few random throws, she actually hit a shuttlecock. Although it was not what she wanted most, the girl still jumped up happily:
"Grandpa, look, am I really amazing? This is what I got."
Grandpa looked at her encouragingly, gave her a thumbs up, and saw the porcelain doll Jiang Shuya handed over and said, "You can only choose one, which one do you want?"
