Chapter 46: Listen to Persuasion
The slow sales speed was just the beginning of Ning Weimin’s frustration.
He soon paid the price of his health in order to raise fish.
Ganqing also showed signs of giving birth because of another pair of "zebra gods".
Ning Weimin rushed to build two more fish tanks.
This time, his cabin was filled with six large glass tanks filled with water.
He also had to use light bulbs to bake from time to time, which made the room full of moisture.
In addition, the weather is getting hot, people often sweat when they move, and the windows in the back room are few and stuffy, so can anything happen?
Unconsciously, some red bumps appeared on the boy's back. They were painful and itchy, and he couldn't stop scratching them all day long.
He himself didn't take it seriously, he just thought it was prickly heat.
But when Kang Shude saw Ning Weimin taking off his vest, revealing his red and swollen back like a toad's skin, he was really shocked.
The old man has experience and knows that this is caused by too much moisture.
He quickly forced Ning Weimin to stop everything he was doing and go to the hospital to see a doctor.
As expected, the doctor told him it was eczema.
Ning Weimin felt depressed after getting back a lot of money from the hospital.
Of course, the old man felt distressed, so he cooked red bean porridge when he returned home, and also made two special dishes: boiled winter melon meatballs and stir-fried bitter melon to help Ning Weimin get rid of moisture.
I will inevitably have to persuade you at the dinner table.
Kang Shude raised his head tactfully.
“You, this business is really not easy.”
“Who says it’s not? It’s only been half a month, even roasting and drying, and I’ve exhausted myself to death. , it only cost fifty yuan to make such an itchy body, and after considering the cost of making these things, I only made twenty yuan in profit.”
Ning Weimin felt sad and naturally complained about his suffering.
I didn’t expect the old man to say that.
"I thought you didn't know, but you know? Then what do you think? Now that something has happened to your body and bones, what are you going to do in the future?"
Suffering life and death Stopped a run.
But knowing that Master cares about him, what can Ning Weimin say?
All I can do is work hard and make things right for myself.
"Hey, I know you feel sorry for me, but what do you think I can do? My three-color fairy has more than a hundred small fish left, and this zebra fairy has come out with another 400. I...can't throw them all away?"
"It's a pity not to mention that it's a waste of more than a hundred dollars. These things are just living things."
" There is no chance of letting them live, these foreigners will die if they are put in the pond. I can only do what I do..."
But this time, the old man's words became even more "nice".
"Well, you're right. We have to accumulate virtue and do good deeds. We can't harm little creatures, otherwise we will suffer retribution."
"The most important thing is that we can't throw away more than a hundred yuan in vain. Also, Not all small businesses are like this, just like selling vegetables..."
"Yes, you are selling fish, it's the same thing. It's an ascetic business, what else can you do if you don't do this? It is necessary to endure hardships and be careful with your budget..."
Ning Weimin was so ashamed that he couldn't hold his head up.
"Yes, I heard it. You are trying to bully me. Do you think I am willing? But I can't just sit back and have nothing."
"Actually, to be honest, this business is really good. I have a way of raising fish that no one else has, and it's a one-of-a-kind trick. As long as I can hire people, have professional equipment and a dedicated place, it's actually pretty good. ”
“It’s just that the timing is a bit wrong, the market is not good, the policies are rigid, there are no places, and we can’t even find people to work, so there is no match anywhere...”
As a result, when Kang Shude heard this, he agreed even more.
"Well, yes, it makes sense. You are absolutely right. Hey, youth is your skill anyway, so what does it mean to go against the grain? I just want you to feel good about it."
But the next sentence directly hit Ning Weimin's heart.
"But let me tell you, if you continue to work, be careful of the precious stamps in your box. No matter how good the camphor wood box is, it can't withstand so much moisture. Didn't you look, there are mushrooms growing on your windows? I dare say that in half a month at most, your clothes will be moldy and moss will grow on the foot of the bed. Do you believe it? "Isn't Ning Weimin in a hurry?
That was a long-cherished wish in the previous life, and a big plan was made in this life.
If this really happens, he will definitely hit the wall.
"Oh, I believe it! I believe it! Don't take my pleasure, old man. Thank you for reminding me! When I get back, I will put my box in your room first."
Following him was like a deflated rubber ball, asking for mercy.
"I said, don't be so arrogant. In fact, I know that I have annoyed you so much recently and interfered with your normal life and rest."
"I won't say anything else, I was wrong, I was wrong. I will seize the time as soon as possible and deal with these fish. I will also give away these fish tanks. I will think of other things later..."
Seeing that Ning Weimin admitted his mistake, Kang Shude finally accepted it.
He nodded happily and reminded him of some issues that he had not ignored.
"Well, that's right. As the saying goes, listen to others and eat enough. In fact, it's not that I bother you, the key is that the neighbors are also annoying you. That is to say, the Mi family and the Bian family have just benefited from you, and they don't talk about it. That’s all.”
“Listen to what I say, don’t turn a deaf ear. In these two days, find some free time and talk to each of our families about this month’s water bills. You've already paid the electricity bill, so you won't make such a fuss about it in the future."
"Especially the Luo family at the entrance of the courtyard, they don't owe you anything, they haven't given you a word, they are just giving you face. "You have to accept this love."
"Don't come to the Luo family empty-handed. Is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Luo family not pregnant? You can buy some brown sugar and millet." Eggs.”
Ning Weimin couldn’t help but be convinced.
Only then did he realize that there were some things that he really didn't think carefully about.
"Okay, everything is up to you. Look at what happened, what did I gain from this? It's like "I received three or five more buckets", don't I give it to myself? Are you looking for trouble?”
Now the old man was happy and asked deliberately.
"Do you regret it? To be honest, have you ever thought that it would be better if you didn't give up the job?"
If Ning Weimin is really a man, he won't say harsh words at all. vague.
"No, really not. I still say that this job is nothing to me. Who am I? What I am best at is digging out cakes from the ground and grabbing gold with my hands. Please bear with me for a few days, and I'm sure I can find a new job. I’ll show you how to make money by turning stone into gold.”
Kang Shude liked his energy and couldn’t help but praise him.
"Okay, you have ambition and a bit of indomitable steel fork."
Then he revealed a piece of good news that really surprised Ning Weimin.
"But, I have found a way for you to make money. In this way, you will take a hundred yuan after dinner and go to the trust store to pick out a car with a back seat. Bicycle. Get up early tomorrow and I’ll take you to pick up money under the altar.”
But he was happy, but Ning Weimin didn't understand.
"You are so humble? You want to buy a car? You have a lot of money... What kind of money do you want me to pick up?"
Then he slapped his forehead, but One thing came to mind.
The so-called altar root actually refers to the foot of the wall of the Temple of Heaven.
Due to the abandonment of the park during the movement, the walls of the Temple of Heaven at this time were in dilapidated condition.
The park is also full of wild smoke, thorns and thorns, and many scorpions breed there.
As we all know, scorpion is a valuable Chinese medicinal material that can be used to treat rheumatism. At this time, pharmacies also charge a lot of money.
If you are good at catching scorpions, you can make money this way.
So he thought he had a clear mind and shouted as if he suddenly understood.
"Oh, I understand, are you going to catch scorpions? The pharmacy charges a lot for that stuff. Do you understand this?"
Unexpectedly, the answer was completely wrong.
The old man glanced at him disdainfully.
"Go away, what are you thinking about! I don't have that ability! Can my presbyopia catch a scorpion? A scorpion stings me. Besides, is this the right month for you? Don't talk nonsense, what do you want to do? Just do whatever you want, you will know when the time comes.”
