Chapter 31 Flyers
June 29, Sunday, was cloudy, a good day to distribute flyers.
Jiang Qida's scheduled time for handing out flyers is from 4 to 7 p.m., and the locations are several film areas near the script-killing shop. This area is in the old city, there is no commercial center or large shopping malls, and the middle schools are already on holiday, so there is no value in distributing flyers.
But there are many old residential buildings and alleys here. There are many small shops in the alleys where young people come to eat at night. There is also a night market nearby. Generally speaking, the flow of people is okay.
If distributing flyers in this area is effective, Jiang Qi will continue distributing them in business districts further away.
Anyway, these flyers are free.
As of 4 o'clock in the afternoon, only 5 of the 9 originally scheduled people had come, 3 boys and 2 girls. It was the first time for 2 girls to hand out flyers. It was just a fresh idea. They took advantage of the time between finishing the final exam and leaving school to go home. We took over this job together during a few days of free time.
Jiang Qi distributed 100 flyers to each person first. Because there were 4 fewer people than expected, he had to delete 4 areas with low traffic and give each person one area.
When they heard that they could drink whatever they wanted, the five cheap laborers seemed very excited.
After assigning the tasks, the five people went to their respective areas. Jiang Qi asked Huang Fugui to stay in the store to look at the store and read the book. If a customer came, he would be notified at any time, while he took 200 flyers and went to the residential area to sweep the buildings.
As soon as he went out, Jiang Qi bumped into Liu Lan, whose mascara was not applied properly and the corners of his eyes were smeared.
"Great, you haven't left yet, which area should I distribute to? Hey, where are the other people distributing flyers?" Liu Lan saw that he was running over in a hurry and asked while breathing heavily.
Jiang Qi:?
"Don't you have a day off today?"
Liu Lan's summer job has a basic salary of 1,000 and 4 days off per month. Liu Lan hasn't had a day off since Jiang Qi took over the script store.
Last night Liu Lan opened the book until about five o'clock in the morning. As soon as she finished, she sent a message to Jiang Qi who was sleeping and said that she was asking for leave today, and Jiang Qi agreed.
Why did this person who was taking a break come to work again?
"Didn't you see the message I sent you? I agreed." Jiang Qi asked.
"You see, I have a day off today, but isn't it 4 o'clock in the afternoon to hand out leaflets? I must be here to hand out leaflets." Liu Lan looked like there is nothing wrong with this.
Jiang Qi:......
Please take some time off to distribute flyers, it’s really yours.
Jiang Qi gave the flyer in his hand to Liu Lan and went in to get it himself.
Seeing that Huang Fugui was the only one in the store, Liu Lan asked, "Is Teacher John off today?"
"right."
"Uncle Huang, what days of the week do you have off?" Liu Lan thought Old John had a fixed Sunday off.
"Me?" Huang Fugui raised his head, "I don't take a break. How can I get a break at work?"
Liu Lan:?
More curly than me?
"Let's go Lanlan." When Jiang Qi was getting the flyers for himself, he took out two bottles of ice water and handed one to Liu Lan.
Jiang Qi didn't hear the conversation just now, and didn't pay much attention to Liu Lan's expression: "The two of us went to a residential building."
In this way, Jiang Qi and his party started their career of distributing leaflets.
On Monday afternoon, Qin Can, another summer worker in the store, started work on time.
Qin Can is Liu Lan's high school classmate and lives nearby, about ten minutes' walk away. As an excellent dancer, Qin Can performed a skyward kick to his colleagues and boss on the first day of his employment at the instigation of Liu Lan. After winning warm applause from everyone, he was assigned to hand out leaflets.
Jiang Qi established a work group after Qin Can joined the company, and even Jiang Bing, who was far away from abroad, joined the group to gather people. After all, theoretically, Jiang Bing is the real owner of this store.
I don’t know whether it’s because Jiang Qi is lucky or because college students who work part-time these days are generally hard-working and down-to-earth. The five people Jiang Qi randomly hired to distribute flyers in the part-time group were all honest people. Even the two little girls who came to experience life only handed out flyers for three days and then left. No one was lazy, they distributed leaflets honestly every day and took the initiative to drink drinks.
The two thousand leaflets printed by Jiang Qi were almost distributed on the first day. When he returned on Sunday night, he printed more overnight.
As of 7 pm on July 1, Jiang Qi paid the five part-time workers who distributed flyers. After the five people happily returned to school with the drinks Jiang Qi gave them, Jiang Qi asked Liu Lan to think about it. The result of two days of leaflet distribution.
The results are very gratifying.
Maybe it's because the flyers designed by Jiang Bing are too eye-catching and unforgettable, or maybe it's because the five college students hired by Jiang Qi to distribute flyers are all honest people who distribute flyers diligently every day and never throw them away. These flyers brought Jiang Qi two carloads of individual tourists and more than 40 potential customers who added WeChat.
The effect can be said to be quite good.
Jiang Qi asked Liu Lan to join him in a part-time job group. He directly posted messages in the group and recruited some people to distribute flyers.
"Should we change the location tomorrow? I feel like I've posted in residential areas nearby for three days. Do we have to go further? The pedestrian street in the city center is good. I always liked it when I was in high school. I asked my classmates to go shopping in the pedestrian street." Liu Lan suggested.
"What do you think, A-chan?"
Qin Can was craning his neck to look into the noodle pot. He didn't listen to Liu Lan's words at all and nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, I think it's good."
Then Qin Can asked Huang Fugui expectantly: "Uncle Huang, when will this noodles be ready? Can I add an extra egg? I ate 4 bowls of noodles in one go last night and I couldn't fall asleep at 2 o'clock in the morning. , If I eat like this every day when school starts, I will definitely be scolded by the teacher. I only eat one bowl today, can I put two eggs in it?"
Jiang Qi and others had eaten green vegetable noodles for several days, and they had become resistant to the temptation of green vegetable noodles and could only eat a normal amount at each meal, but Qin Can was different.
She joined the company late and was caught handing out flyers as soon as she got to work yesterday. This kid is more honest in his work than Liu Lan. When Liu Lan distributes flyers, he always finds spots with high traffic and stands still. Qin Can feels that this is too slow. He distributes leaflets while walking. After 3 hours, he walked out of 2 10,000 WeChat steps.
Qin Can, who was tired and hungry when he returned to the store, couldn't hold back when faced with the fragrant green vegetable noodles that Huang Fugui had just cooked, and ate 4 large bowls in one go.
This is one bowl more than Liu Lan’s original record of three bowls.
This appetite shocked Huang Fugui. On the way home from work, he lamented to Jiang Qi that the little girl Qin Can looked thin and small (she was a dancer with a slender figure), but she didn't expect to eat such a big appetite. It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
When Huang Fugui heard that Qin Can, who had eaten four bowls of noodles yesterday, only ate one bowl today, he suddenly became worried: "Girl Qin, is one bowl enough?"
Qin Can hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded firmly: "That's enough."
Anyway, you can eat it every day from now on. Qin Can quietly asked Liu Lan after eating the noodles yesterday. This vegetable noodles is an employee benefit. As long as Huang Fugui is not busy, he can have it every day. At first, she thought the summer job salary at the store Liu Lan was looking for was a bit low, but now Qin Can only felt that Liu Lan had found a really good summer job.
If you have such a good job, don’t forget to bring yourself with you. Liu Lan is truly his good sister!
While Qin Can and Huang Fugui were talking, Liu Lan had already put out the side dishes for eating noodles. Peanuts, dried soybean paste, chili sauce, kimchi, pickles, dried radish, soybean paste, fermented bean curd, sugared garlic, everything was available in a row. The front desk was full immediately after opening.
Jiang Qi had just been replying to the new flyer he found in the part-time group. He didn't even notice who was talking. Liu Lan repeated the previous question before Jiang Qi heard it.
"Starting from tomorrow, we no longer need to hand out flyers. I have found a dozen more people to hand out flyers. The new place for handing out flyers is too far away from the store. Everyone has worked hard these past three days. From now on, we no longer need to hand out flyers." Jiang Qidao.
He promoted the three honest and reliable boys who originally distributed leaflets to supervisors, and paid 15 yuan per hour to supervise the new leaflets. The people in the store were completely hands off and focused on the store.
The peak season has arrived, but except for Liu Lan, no one in the store has even read the book, so wasting time on handing out flyers is putting the cart before the horse.
"Okay." Liu Lan was a little disappointed. Her extra money of 15 yuan an hour was gone.
"By the way, I've already finished watching "Time Cinema". There will be a busload of assembled guests playing the mystery book at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon. That teacher Ben John just finished reading it yesterday and revised it, so he can take care of it. The only remaining ones are the ones who just added the customer service the day before yesterday. A girl in the store wants to play a love game at 8pm. The only love game available in the store is "Mask Club". I will try to help her recruit people, but there is a high probability that she will not be able to do so. There will be no guests tomorrow night, how about we play "Mask Club" Let’s test Time Cinema,” Liu Lan suggested.
Jiang Qi had no objection: "Okay, are there enough people to test the book?"
Liu Lan did the math: "It's enough for me to call my roommate and then Wanwan. There are no requirements for men or women."
Because Liu Lan said before that he wanted to test the book, Jiang Qi could not bear to watch "Time Cinema". Now that Liu Lan said that the emotional book had no requirements for men and women, he became more curious about this book.
Jiang Qi just wanted to ask a few more questions. The green vegetable noodles at Huang Fugui's place would be good.
"The noodles are ready, let's eat noodles!" Huang Fugui happily greeted everyone to eat noodles, and handed Qin Can the green vegetable noodles with two eggs.
"Thank you, Uncle Huang!" Qin Can took the bowl and went to the front desk to add side dishes.
Old John also put down his book and came over to eat noodles.
"Teacher John, how do you like the book you read today?" Jiang Qi asked.
He saw that Old John didn't take any notes when reading the book today. He thought that there was nothing wrong with the book and did not need to be corrected, so he felt surprised and asked casually.
"Not very good." Old John said very honestly, with a rare expression that was hard to explain.
Old John looked at Qin Can, who had already started to devour the food, Liu Lan, who was blowing on his face, and Huang Fugui, who was studying whether to go with fermented bean curd noodles, dried radish noodles, or both today. He hesitated for a while, but finally couldn't hold it back.
"The murderer used a condom to suffocate the deceased. How did he come up with this method? It's so outrageous that it can't be changed."
Jiang Qi:......
