soda pop stand

Ji "The Capitalist" Sayo decided to set up shop outside our house here at Ye Olde Golfe Binks the other day. Phet and I were preoccupied with our usual preoccupation ("doing stuff on the computer"; also known as THE BANE OF JI'S EXISTENCE) and so Ji got everything togther on his own. He found a box and drew some fizzy, tasty looking sodas on it and wrote "sodu popp" on it. Then he made a sign for our exterior gate, got out a wicker chair to sit in, and propped up a single (and dirty!) soda water (no cup!) (no straw!) on his box and got ready to rake in his first million.

Unfortunately our passers-by numbers are low, low, low in this neighbourhood. At the end of an hour Ji had sold a single sip of soda. To me! But boy, did I pay well. Poor old Ji. He really needs a factory, a team of lab assistants, and a roadside shop to make his dreams come true. If I were you, I'd start investing with Sayo Inc as soon as possible.

And just for fun, here is a video of Ji explaining why he didn't make big bucks.
