MTL - How to Feed an Abyss!-Chapter 126 business failure
Shi Yuan's flower shop project was very successful at the beginning.
He originally thought that he would grow flowers from scratch, but Lu Tinghan told him that he could go directly to wholesale.
The "Overlook" project has preserved many fertilized eggs and seeds, including flowers. After the abundance of food, in recent months, a greenhouse has been set aside for planting flowers, and Shi Yuan has caught up with it.
"Before, everyone was growing Xuejian at home. Xuejian is easy to grow, and it can survive for ten days and a half months, and it is still a union flower." Lu Tinghan told Shi Yuan, "There are so many different flowers in the greenhouse. First time since Rielton."
"Wow!" Shi Yuan was very happy, "Then how can I buy them?"
"We have to contact the relevant departments." Lu Tinghan said so, stroking his head, "Let me go and talk."
Shi Yuan knew that the "relevant department" was a very mysterious human organization, which seemed to cover everything in the world and be responsible for all kinds of things. He waited patiently for a few days, and Lu Tinghan brought back good news, saying that he had ordered a batch of flowers for him, including roses, hydrangeas, sunflowers, and gladioli, and they would be harvested in about three months.
After solving the flower source, the next step is the problem of the storefront.
The land of Dunton is very large, and with the multi-storey underground structure, the area is more than sufficient.
But to open a store, you naturally have to go to a lively place. Lu Tinghan found a few days to spare, and walked with Shi Yuan through the streets and alleys, specifically picking out rented or vacant stores.
—It is said to look at the storefront, but in fact the efficiency of the two is extremely low.
Go shopping slowly, there are always novelties on the streets. Shi Yuan's attention was diverted: In just a few days, he ate warm egg rice rolls, drank fragrant corn juice, sat in a coffee shop with Lu Tinghan, and studied coffee latte art for a long time The two passed by the news agency and listened to the editor-in-chief explain how they restored the printing factory, and got a book that was just printed and smelled of ink; they met a lost girl at the end of the alley, sent her home, and came back Shiyuan saw a robot on the road, and he happily sat on it, listening to its voice of "Warning! Warning!", and walked forward slowly.
Every afternoon, Shi Yuan suddenly thought of the flower shop.
The two hurried to look at the store, researched it, and finally returned home in the dark.
Shi Yuan would lie on the bed and say, "We must not wander around tomorrow, we must concentrate on looking."
Lu Tinghan: "Yes."
Then the two played for another day.
Fortunately, Lu Tinghan did his homework, contacted people from the "relevant departments", got information on suitable stores, and rushed there specifically.
On the seventh day of their shopping, Shi Yuan took a fancy to the shop at No. 79 Gaota Street.
It's not because there is a good flow of people there, but because there is a sentry tower on that street, which is tall and straight, and its shape reminds him of the No. 4 tower in Fengyang City.
"Then let's go here." Lu Tinghan looked up at the interior structure, "The location is good, and the flower shop doesn't need too complicated decoration."
So it was settled.
In the next few days, Shi Yuan was busy rehearsing the script, leaving early and returning late every day.
After finally having a leisurely night, he reacted belatedly and asked Lu Tinghan: "What about the money for buying flowers and the rent of the store? I don't have much money now."
The missing 4,713,351 yuan really made his financial situation worse.
—although it never got better.
"It's all been paid." Lu Tinghan replied, "You don't need to pay the rent, it's your storefront."
Shi Yuan's tail froze: "How much is it in total!"
Lu Tinghan didn't tell him, saying it was his birthday present. He said: "Shi Yuan, you are thousands of years old, and I have never given you a birthday present. So many years of gifts added together, this little thing is not enough." He also told Shi Yuan, "Birthday gifts are human beings. tradition of."
— He didn't say that humans generally don't pay for birthday presents in the past.
Especially millennial birthday presents.
Shi Yuan said, "I don't feel right, but I don't know what's wrong."
"That's all right." Lu Tinghan smiled and kissed him, "Or if you think so, wait until you have money from acting and selling flowers, and then buy me presents."
"Okay," Shi Yuan was very happy, "It's a deal! I really like your gift!"
He quickly ran to the side of the sofa, threw himself on Lu Tinghan and gave him a big kiss.
Something went wrong with this one.
Sitting on Lu Tinghan's body, although Lu Tinghan won't say "Warning! Warning!", he will do other things.
Both of them slept until noon the next day.
It was Lu Tinghan who woke up energetically, cooked noodles and waited for Shi Yuan to wake up.
In the following days, Shi Yuan ran back and forth between the theater and the flower shop.
The workers simply decorated the storefront, welded the iron frames for the flowers, and installed the lamps. The overall atmosphere is very fresh and simple.
Shi Yuan said that he wanted to give the flower shop a commemorative name.
Lu Tinghan thought he would see things like "Little Devil Flower Shop", "Tingting Flower Shop" or "Lighthouse Flower Shop" and "Time Flower Shop". Three days later, he faced a big flower shop sign. The word "1" fell into deep thought.
He asked, "What is '1'?"
"It's you!" Shi Yuan answered him happily.
Lu Tinghan: "..."
Lu Tinghan said: "Shi Yuan, we can't do it, let's change the name, this one is a bit wild."
"But I like it." Shi Yuan said, "I told everyone at the beginning that I would go to the city to find 1." He thought for a while, "Although I know what it means, I still think it is very commemorative."
"No," Lu Tinghan said, "This really won't work."
"Ah, don't you think it's commemorative?"
"Yes, but no."
"but…"
"no."
Lu Tinghan's attitude was very firm, Shi Yuan had no choice but to give up this idea with regret.
They muttered and discussed in bed for two days.
Finally, the sign of "Long Tail Flower Shop" was put up.
Shi Yuan waited happily for the flowers to bloom.
Until one night two months later, when Lu Tinghan came home, he looked very hesitant.
"What's the matter?" Shi Yuan asked him, "What happened?"
Lu Tinghan: "Shi Yuan..."
"Um?"
Lu Tinghan said: "Shi Yuan, all your flowers are dead."
Shi Yuan:? ? ?
The next day he came to the greenhouse and saw a large area of withered flowers.
This is the first time that people have planted flowers in a large area here, and they are not skilled in the business. The night before yesterday, the soil moisture, ventilation and light were not set properly, and all the budding flowers were wilted due to negligence.
Shi Yuan squatted on the edge of the field, reaching out to pick up a flower bud.
It was limp and weak, and when the hand was released, it immediately lowered its head.
Time Yuan: qaq
Lu Tinghan comforted him: "It's okay, there will be a new batch of flowers in another month. We will not miss one."
The long tail flower shop can only postpone the opening.
Almost a month later, Lu Tinghan came home one night with a hesitant look on his face.
"What's wrong?" Shi Yuan immediately became alert, "My flower died again?"
Lu Tinghan: "No."
Shi Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Tinghan said, "Your shop is on fire."
Shi Yuan:? ? ? ?
When he came to the store the next day, half of the store was burned down.
The back kitchen of the restaurant next door caught fire. Although the firefighters put it out in time, no one was injured or injured, but the back kitchen was next to the flower shop, and it was completely burnt down.
Lu Tinghan said: "Ahem, they will compensate you for rebuilding."
Time Yuan: qaq
Lu Tinghan rubbed Shi Yuan all night before making the little devil happy, and he made the snoring sound again.
It took a month or two to rebuild, during which time they missed the flowering period in the greenhouse.
The next wave will have to wait for several months.
And Shi Yuan also got busy.
"Eternal Heroes" reached a critical moment. As one of the leading actors, he had a heavy task, and often rehearsed all day long.
In the past, he always waited for Lu Tinghan to come home, but this time it was reversed, Lu Tinghan was always waiting for him outside the theater.
Every time the rehearsal is over, when Shi Yuan goes out, he can see the black car. After he went up, the tip of his tail swayed happily, and when the vehicle drove through the night street, he happily shared interesting stories about the troupe with Lu Tinghan. The soft light of street lamps swept across their faces over and over again, like waves, and they always exchanged a lingering kiss at the end.
Seeing that the flowering period was approaching and Shi Yuan was still so busy, Lu Tinghan suggested that he find a clerk to help manage the flower shop.
No matter what era, the pursuit of beauty is eternal, and there are not many people who are interested in running a flower shop.
The first to settle was a young girl.
After a few days, she suddenly said that a relative in the family was sick and she had to take care of her.
Shi Yuan was very sorry, but still expressed his blessing to her.
It was a young man who settled for the second time.
A few days later, the young man said that he had a dream about a very cute lamb. He thought it was some kind of omen, so he decided to work in the ranch.
Shi Yuan:? ?
The third time was an old lady.
A few days later, the old lady said that she picked up a kitten on the side of the road. It was so small that she was worried about letting it stay at home alone, so she had to give it up.
Shi Yuan:? ? ?
The fourth time was a middle-aged uncle.
After a few days, the uncle called Shi Yuan: "I... something miraculous happened to me..."
Shi Yuan said, "Ah, what's so miraculous?"
"It's, it's really amazing." The uncle is still twitching, "You will never guess."
Shi Yuan held his tail and guessed: "Mr. Li, you probably picked up 50 cents on the side of the road after eating. You remembered the story of fishing by the river in your childhood and fell into the water. You planned to disguise yourself as a woman and go to the factory to make squirrel toys. , and then sent to welfare organizations.”
The uncle was shocked: "I'll go! How do you know?!"
Shi Yuan:? ? ? ?
—As confirmed by Lu Tinghan, the reasons of these four people are all true.
Shi Yuan couldn't find a suitable shop assistant in the end.
He curled his tail in confusion: "How could this be? How could it be?"
This time, even Lu Tinghan fell into deep thought: "Yes, how could this happen?"
They thought about it for a few days, but to no avail.
The two leaned side by side on the head of the bed—
Shi Yuan: It's too weird, I'm going to use my brain to think about jpg
Lu Tinghan: I have already used my brain to think about it, but it is still very strange.jpg
Flowering was missed again.
What followed was overwhelming applause in the theater.
The performance of the new play by the Wild Rose Troupe was a great success. At the curtain call, Shi Yuan and the troupe members held hands and bowed. When they looked up, they saw Lu Tinghan in the audience.
Lu Tinghan smiled and applauded him, his gray-blue eyes were so bright, like a gentle sea.
On the way home, Shiyuan was very excited, and told Lu Tinghan a lot about the performance. He said that he had never seen so many audiences, and he almost suffered from anthropophobia; he said that Cheng Yi's script was very good, and several people cried during the audition; he said that he thought Lu Tinghan didn't have time to watch it , the result still came, he was really happy.
After Lu Tinghan finished listening, he told Shi Yuan: "Open your terminal and have a look."
Shi Yuan opened it.
There was a transfer notification 3 hours ago.
It is exactly 4,713,351 yuan.
Lu Tinghan whispered in his ear: "I applied to the alliance to restore your data. It took them a while to go through the process, and now, all your deposits are back."
Shi Yuan: "Wow!"
Wages lost and recovered.
His humans are still so powerful.
Unfortunately, the next flowering period is next year.
In this way, due to various uncontrollable mysterious reasons, Shi Yuan's business plan was postponed until next year.
The two picked a day to go to the plantation, and took two pots of Xuejian to go home. No matter what, the little monster who loves flowers still wants to see a blooming flower.
Shi Yuan watered it every day, and squatted in front of the flower pot to observe every day when he got home.
The green buds grow up slowly, become thick and healthy, and the flower buds are also very full. Finally, one night, the snow saw the flowers bloom.
The two looked together in front of the flower pot, the faint light fell in their eyes.
The weather was cold, Shi Yuan spoke a little white. He said: "Lu Tinghan, let's try the flower shop again next year—"
"Yeah." Lu Tinghan rubbed his head and said with a smile, "It will definitely succeed next time."
