Looking for a cart to inquire, where is there a chemical store in the city, are shaking their heads, these years chemicals are definitely tall things, ordinary people have never heard of it, and finally a driver said: "Sir, I remember that there is a shop, which is opened by foreigners, it seems to sell the things you said, but in the east of the city, far away." ”

"The car is enough for you." Jiang Hao said and got into the rickshaw.

The rickshaw sped up and ran through the streets and alleys for half the city, until it finally came to the door of a store called "George Chemical's Store".

Looking at the name, Bacheng was opened by a foreigner.

Walking into the store, the store was deserted, there were no customers at all, only a guy was dozing off on the counter, Jiang Hao walked over and quietly tabled, the guy woke up, looked at Jiang Hao and hurriedly said, "This gentleman, what do you want." ”

Jiang Hao said a lot of chemical terms, some guys knew, some felt plausible, and some were unheard of, the guy held back a face and said: "I'm sorry sir, I've only been here for three months, and some things are not very clear, or I'll ask my boss." ”

"Okay, tell your boss that this is a long-term business, and I just want to talk to your boss in person." Jiang Hao said.

The guy ran upstairs, and not long ago brought a brown-haired and blue-eyed foreigner down, this guy looked in his thirties, but the foreigner's head was wearing a Chinese-style long shirt, looking nondecent, after seeing Jiang Hao, he said in very lame Chinese, "Mud howl, what do you want for incense." ”

Jiang Hao almost didn't laugh, and said in English: "We can communicate in English." ”

As soon as the foreigner heard that the person on the other side could speak English, he immediately smiled and said in English: "I am an American, my name is George, George Lee, oh, your English is really standard, have you ever studied in the United States?" ”

"No, I taught myself." Jiang Hao said.

"Oh my God, you're such a genius, I've been teaching Chinese on my own for more than a year, but I can only understand part of the everyday language."

The two chatted for a while, and George asked, "By the way, what do you want, please say it again, okay, my buddy doesn't know much about chemistry, you know, there is almost no chemistry in China." ”

Jiang Hao said again what he wanted to buy, George was much better than that guy, and quickly replied, some have, some don't, Jiang Hao looked at the chemical list and considered it, and finally selected some.

With these things, Jiang Hao can make several liquor additives that he needs, which are mellow and delicious enough.

The guy went to prepare something, George pulled Jiang Hao to sit down, and continued to chat, probably because no one spoke his native language to him for a long time, which made this guy have a great desire to communicate, so he talked endlessly.

"You know, I used to run a chemical store in the United States, but then the economic crisis and the demand for industrial goods dropped sharply, and my store was losing money every day, which made me sad."

Economic crisis?

Oh, the Great Depression in the United States.

Jiang Hao remembered.

"Then my cousin Baker wrote to me that he was in China, and China was an uncultivated virgin land, and there were a lot of opportunities here, and by the way, my cousin was the secretary of Professor Roharto, who was an economist, and the economic adviser to your chairman, Chang. ”

Hearing that name, Jiang Hao's heart jumped unconsciously.

"With such a relationship, I felt that it should be very promising, so I said goodbye to my wife, Suzanne, and came over with all my belongings, and did a steamship for 20 days, you know, the days of wandering at sea are not easy."

"But after I came, I found that this place has indeed not been cultivated, but he is too desolate, so desolate that very few people use chemicals, they only have needs for the most common things, such as acids and alkalis, and others, no one cares about them at all, and many of my things are backlogged there."

"You look here, often there is no customer coming in for a day, I wanted to open the store in Shanghai or Nandu, but my cousin disagreed, he said that it is not safe there, it is better to open in an inland city, so I came to Rongcheng."

"But the business here is really not good, so I am very idle, and I have learned to drink tea and listen to music." Speaking of this, he approached Jiang Hao and said: "Later, I saw a beautiful young lady who was singing, and I wanted her to be my girlfriend, you know, and then she took the initiative to tell me that she wanted to be my aunt's wife." ”

After speaking, he raised his eyebrows at Jiang Hao, "Chinese women are very gentle and very good at serving, I feel that I am almost inseparable from her." ”

"And what about your wife, Suzanne?" Jiang Hao asked.

George shrugged, "You know, it's very lonely to be alone outside, I love Susanna, but I'm also lonely, I don't think it's betraying her, you're also a man, what do you think." ”

Jiang Hao's own butt was not clean, so he nodded and said, "I think, it shouldn't be counted." ”

George smiled and clapped his hands, "Man, I think we can be friends." ”

When it comes to men's topics and women, as long as they are not rivals in love, it becomes easy to communicate.

"That's right, Yu, the guy said that you want to cooperate for a long time, that's great, I can give you a discount, it's 95% off now, and the more you use it in the future, the bigger the discount."

Jiang Hao smiled, "That's great, George." ”

The guy got things ready, there were a dozen kinds of raw materials, many of them were packaged in glass bottles, and a bunch of beaker reagent bottles and so on, these were tools for making additives, and the outside was wrapped with straw mats, and it was very fine.

"George, I'm going to go around the other places and buy some gifts for my wife, and I'll put them here and take them when I get back from shopping." Jiang Hao said.

"No problem."

Jiang Hao said goodbye to George, made a car to Chunxi Road, Chunxi Road was named in 1924, known as the century-old gold street, is the most prosperous street in Rongcheng, silk shops, jewelry shops, leather shops, shopping malls on both sides of the street abound, walking on this street, its prosperous feeling and the pedestrian street of later generations have a comparison.

Bang Bang!

A sound came from a distance, and Jiang Hao saw a tram coming over, because it made the sound of bells and bells from time to time, so the locals called him the bell car.

Walking into a shopping mall, spacious Chengdu is not inferior to the shopping mall of the future, Jiang Hao turned around, stopped in the jewelry area, and found that the things here are very expensive, not to mention those jade and jade jewelry, even a piece of gold jewelry is worth a lot, and he can't afford it now.

Coming to the cosmetics area, the cosmetics are now very complete, alabaster, talcum powder, shampoo, perfume, lipstick, Jiang Hao stopped at the lipstick counter, picked up a few and looked at them, and found that they were all foreign brands.

"Sir, do you want to buy a lipstick for your wife, this is the American "Danqi", the latest rotary design, applied to the mouth, can definitely multiply the woman's gorgeousness, you look at my lips, it is this lipstick that is applied. The waitress pursed her lips slightly.

"How much does this cost?" Jiang Hao asked.

"5 oceans." The waitress said lightly.

My damn, just such a lipstick costs 5 oceans, do you know how much grain you can buy with five oceans, do you know that five oceans are enough for a family to spend half a month, five oceans, can I make you a basket out.

Jiang Hao can do this by himself.

Making lipstick is not complicated, it can be said that it is very simple, there are many videos of making lipstick on the Internet, and there are no less than 100 kinds of formulas, which are sold directly in Weixin, and they are available for a few dollars.

"Okay, get me one." Jiang Hao took out 5 silver dollars and handed them to the waiter.

Back at the chemical store, Jiang Hao asked if George was there, and the guy said that he took his aunt and wife to listen to the music, a ball, and lived more chic than his own traverser, Jiang Hao took a turn in the store and bought a few things, so he called a coachman and took his things to the inn.

The next day, when Jiang Hao got up in the morning, he hired a car and pulled everything back to the county seat, and as soon as he got home, Jiang Hao vacated the east wing and turned it into a laboratory, although this laboratory looked too simple, with only some flasks and reagent bottles and two stoves.

But simplicity does not mean simplicity, and the career starts here.

At this moment, a black and strong guy knocked on Jiang Hao's door, opened the door and saw someone coming, still carrying two packs of snacks in his hand, Jiang Hao asked with a smile: "Chef Fang, why did you come to me if you don't run your restaurant?" ”

The person who came was the owner of the small restaurant where Jiang Hao took Jiu'er to eat the day before yesterday, Fang Dazheng.

Boss Fang smiled and said, "Boss Yu, I'm here to learn from a teacher." ”

Since eating boiled fish yesterday, Fang Dazheng has never forgotten it, he feels that if he learns that dish, business will definitely be popular, so he has the idea of learning art.

I thought about it for a day yesterday, and today I finally came to the door.

"It's okay to learn art, but how can we settle accounts." Jiang Hao asked.

Fang Dazheng also knew that learning art was not so simple, and said: "I prepared a gift of 30 yuan, and I want to learn Boss Yu's boiled fish, can you see it." As he spoke, he placed a money bag on the table.

30 yuan, which is already a lot.

Jiang Hao immediately wrote down the recipe and cooking details of the boiled fish and handed it to Fang Dazheng, 30 yuan in exchange for a piece of paper, and he didn't know if he lost money and earned.

Just when Fang Dazheng was about to say goodbye, Jiang Hao said: "By the way, I will have a lot of other dishes, which don't taste like boiled fish, such as sauerkraut fish or something." ”

Fang Dazheng almost fell.

After Fang Dazheng left, with his memory, Jiang Hao began to tinker with alcohol additives, although he failed twice, but in the end he still succeeded.

Jiu'er also came to see it, but she couldn't understand what the man was doing, but she knew that the man must be doing big things, she had no culture, and she couldn't help the man, so she would serve him well.

Eat and drink well every day, almost don't feed it directly, wash your feet in the bath at night, and take the initiative to sit on it and shake it yourself when you are afraid that the man will be tired.

A week has passed, and the several additives that Jiang Hao asked for have finally been made, looking at the reagent bottles, Jiang Hao laughed, and thanked his high school teacher again.
