Reborn in the 70s, doing whatever it takes to make money

Chapter 32 Dining out at a state-owned hotel

The bald middle-aged Director Chen’s eyes lit up and he thanked Director Liu repeatedly.

The two chatted for a while, then Director Liu turned back to the hospital, and Director Chen also walked outside the hospital.

When the bald middle-aged factory director Chen approached, Xu Qing immediately walked up, first smiled sweetly, and then enthusiastically made a sales pitch, "Brother, do you want turtles?"

Director Chen held a dozen packages of Chinese medicine and waved impatiently at Xu Qing as he walked.

Xu Qing was not discouraged.

She has been observing Director Chen for a long time.

Bald head, slightly pale face, frivolous pace, big bag of Chinese medicine...

He probably guessed Director Chen’s condition.

Eight out of ten middle-aged men have kidney deficiency.

Xu Qing followed Director Chen and said, "Brother, turtle is a good thing. It is a top-quality food. It has the effects of replenishing qi, nourishing yin, strengthening yang, and strengthening the kidneys. Eating turtle can relieve waist pain caused by insufficient kidney qi." Symptoms include sore knees, nocturnal emissions, dizziness and tinnitus, insomnia and dreaminess..."

Director Chen originally had an impatient expression, but after hearing Xu Qing's words, he stopped suddenly and looked at Xu Qing, "Little girl, don't lie to me. Are turtles really as good as you say?"

Xu Qing was overjoyed, as she had guessed right. No matter now or in future generations, old people love health care products, women are obsessed with skin care products, and men have a special liking for aphrodisiac foods.

"If you don't believe me, there is a hospital behind you. You can ask the doctor. If what I say is false, I will give this turtle to you for free."

Xu Qing said confidently.

She didn't lie.

Turtle does have aphrodisiac properties.

But what she didn’t say is that there are many foods that aphrodisiac, such as mutton, leeks, walnuts, pork kidneys, dog meat, etc.

Many foods have the effect of aphrodisiac, but the effect is not obvious, and the effect is not immediate after eating it.

Director Chen saw Xu Qing's confident face and couldn't help but believe it. In his opinion, Xu Qing didn't need to lie to him. After all, how could a little girl know about his condition?

Think about this.

He was moved.

The illness has tortured him for too long, leaving him physically and mentally exhausted. As long as the treatment can be effective, he is not afraid of spending money, because as a factory director, he is not short of money.

When Xu Qing saw Director Chen's heart moved, she immediately opened the fish basket and said, "Brother, look, this turtle weighs eight or nine kilograms. It is rare. This is the first time I have seen such a big turtle..."

Director Chen couldn't wait to ask: "How much is it?"

Xu Qing was so happy that she opened her mouth and asked for a price, "One dollar and fifty cents per catty. This turtle weighs eight or nine catties. Brother, please give me 13 yuan. What do you think?"

Nowadays, the price of soft-shell turtle is only a few cents per catty, which is lower than the price of pork. In the late 80s and early 90s, the price of soft-shell turtle became very high, once reaching 200 yuan per catty. Nowadays, people lack oil and water in their stomachs, and their first choice is pork. , and it is also fatty pork, so the price of pork is higher than that of chicken, duck, goose, and fish.

"What? One dollar and fifty cents per pound?"

Director Chen was surprised and said, "Little girl, this turtle is so expensive. Pork is not even that expensive. It's too expensive, too expensive."

Xu Qing said quickly: "Brother, as the saying goes, rare things are valuable. When have you ever seen such a big turtle? The older the turtle is, the greater its nutritional value. Generally, a turtle weighing one or two kilograms costs a few cents. The money is less than one yuan per pound, but look at my turtle, with a black back and yellow background, the size of a washbasin. It looks like a turtle, but it is actually a walking nutrient bank..."

"But it's still too expensive."

Director Chen shook his head and said.

13 yuan is not a small amount, it is equivalent to less than half a month's salary of a worker.

"Brother, if you think it's expensive, then this turtle seems to have no chance with you."

Xu Qing gave in to her desires and used retreat to advance.

When doing business, you cannot just make price concessions.

Sometimes, if you give in, the other party will take advantage of you.

and.

He clearly felt that Director Chen was very attracted to this turtle.

really.

"No, no. Little girl, see if you can get it cheaper."

Director Chen immediately became anxious when he saw that Xu Qing would not sell to him.

Xu Qing saw that Director Chen didn't have enough money, so she changed her mind and said, "Brother, don't you have enough money? If not, you can use coupons, food stamps, meat stamps, and bicycle tickets."

At last.

The deal between Xu Qing and Director Chen was completed perfectly.

Xu Qing received a total of nine yuan and eighty cents in cash, ten kilograms of food stamps, one kilogram of meat stamps, and half a kilogram of candy stamps.

In excitement, Xu Qing gave the fish basket directly to Director Chen. Anyway, the fish basket was not worth much. When she met an old fishing man later, she gave him a few cents and bought it.

……

"Why hasn't my little sister come back yet?"

Under the big tree, Xu Jiandang and Xu Jianye looked up from time to time in the direction Xu Qing was leaving. They waited left and right, but Xu Qing was still nowhere to be seen.

In fact, Xu Qing had not been away for long, but in the sultry environment, coupled with various psychological factors such as worry, Xu Jiandang and Xu Jianye felt like the days were like years.

The two kept walking back and forth under the big tree.

Unknowingly, my body was wet with sweat again.

"I'm coming."

Xu Jianye's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted loudly.

Xu Jiandang looked over, and sure enough, the little girl was back, and the fish basket in her hand was gone.

Sold out?

How much did it sell for?

Doubts lingered in their hearts.

Xu Qing trotted over and smiled at her second and third brothers: "Brother, let's go to a restaurant to eat!"

"Eat, eat? Little sister, are you rich?"

The second brother asked stupidly.

Xu Qing patted her pocket and said, "Not short of money!"

The third brother reminded: "Little sister, I heard that eating in the city not only requires money, but also food stamps."

"You have money and tickets, don't worry."

Hearing Xu Qing's words, the second brother and the third brother were overjoyed.

They were all so hungry that they were dizzy.

If we go back now, we won't be able to get home until the sun goes down. Although we won't starve to death, the feeling of starvation is not pleasant.

……

The state-owned hotel is decorated in a grand style, with two floors, so grand.

Hotel entrance.

Xu Jianye and Xu Jiandang suddenly stood still, with nervous expressions on their faces.

When Xu Qing was about to enter the restaurant, she suddenly realized that her second and third brothers were not following her. When she turned around, she saw that her second and third brothers were standing ten meters away, motionless.

"Second brother, third brother, the hotel is here, let's go."

Xu Qing shouted at the two of them.

"Little sister, you, come here."

The second brother waved to Xu Qing, with a hint of embarrassment and nervousness in his voice.

When they arrived at the door of the hotel, the two became nervous.

Xu Qing walked over doubtfully.

"Little sister, let's not eat anymore and go home."

The second brother whispered.

Xu Qing became even more confused, "Second brother, you're already here, why don't you eat? We're not short of money."

"No, little sister, this hotel is too grand. Let's, let's..." The third brother hesitated.
