sell flowers on valentine's day......

When I was in China, my only working experience was selling flowers on valentine's day for twice.
Several good friends got together and came out with an amazing idea: why not sell flowers on valentine's day? it can be interesting!! Just after a short time, we started our first "career"
We were seperated in different areas because none of us wanted to compete with each other. Maybe our flowers looked more pretty and fresh, we got a lot of customers. Staring at the lovely money I got, my heart was almost flying to the blue sky, for it was the first time I could earn money myself.
All of us got good news, all the flowers were sold out, and we got almost 1500 yuan. How exciting!!!
After a short discussion, we decided to have a big dinner with this large amount of money. We chose a fantastic restaurant and steped into it with happy faces. We ordered a lot of dishes and had a great dinner.
However, when the waiter brought the bill in front us, we were a little shocked and then burst into laughter. The dishes we ordered were out of the money we got, so everyone added some and finally we paid the bill.
Before selling the flowers, we just wanted to earn some pocket money, but in the end, we put some extra money from our pockets, it is funny . But we all enjoyed it, I think we were a good seller, especially in selling flowers:-)
