Eighty's Military Marriage: The Disliked Me Became the Richest Man in the City

Originally the female CEO of a high-end catering brand, Xia Enruo drowned while vacationing in Hainan to watch the underwater starry sky and transmigrated to the 1980s. Her past life was full of gl...

Chapter 207 Earning Eight Thousand Yuan

Ge Qiuqin never imagined that Zhao Mingyan had lived such a hard life before that she had even thought about death.

Compared to her past life, what did her marriage amount to? Wasn't it just that she married the wrong man?

"Sister, it breaks my heart to hear you say that."

"I never imagined you had suffered so much before, Mingyan, you've been through so much."

Ge Qiuqin almost burst into tears as she listened. She was soft-hearted and couldn't bear to see children suffer.

She took Zhao Mingyan's hand and gently brushed the stray hairs from her ear. She seemed to be a kind-hearted girl, and she never imagined that her past life had been so difficult.

"Sister-in-law, Boss Xia has sent my brother out to gather evidence. I think he will be able to help you get out of your unhappy marriage and punish those who hurt you."

"Our lives will definitely get better and better in the future."

Despite her young age, Zhao Mingyan is very experienced and her thinking is more mature than that of her peers.

"Okay, Mingyan is right, our lives will get better and better from now on."

The two picked up their clothes, sorted them, and started washing them in the washing machine.

Zhao Mingyan followed Ge Qiuqin for more than half a year, and her embroidery and sewing skills improved a lot.

Now, Zhao Mingyan does most of the finishing work, including the difficult-to-finish cuts and other chores.

The two worked together seamlessly, leading the workers with exceptional efficiency.

The next day, Xia Enru woke up early to prepare to go to the shop to cook.

She still prepares all the dishes for the four stores every day.

Gu Shaoxuan couldn't bear to see his wife working so hard, especially now that she was pregnant.

"Enruo, how about I cook for you? You can just direct me. You're getting too tired doing this every day."

Gu Shaoxuan helped his wife put on her shoes and then offered his opinion.

"Shaoxuan, you're being a bit too protective of me right now. Even though I'm pregnant, I'm not at the point where I can't lift a finger or carry anything."

“Didn’t you hear what Sister Qiuqin and the others said? Some women in the village were pregnant but still went to work in the fields, and they still gave birth in the end.”

Gu Shaoxuan knew that Ge Qiuqin had said such things, but if he didn't cherish his own wife, who would?

Besides, what were the conditions like in the village, and what are they like now?

He wished he could skip work and stay by her side at all times.

“Enruo, Sister Qiuqin did say those things, but times have changed. Since we have the means to have healthy babies, we must protect them.”

“You’re now a top priority for our family, like a giant panda. If all else fails, I’ll call Mom and ask her to come over so we can have someone to take care of you.”

Xia Enruo immediately refused, saying that she was not so fussy as to cause trouble for the whole family just because she was pregnant.

If that's really the case, I won't be able to sleep peacefully at night, and I'll feel guilty.

"Shaoxuan, you can't let Mom come over. My little sister is taking the college entrance exam in a month. It's a crucial time right now, and Mom has to stay home with her to help her with the exam."

"If my actions affect my younger sister's college entrance exam, I, as her sister-in-law, will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

"Okay, okay, I won't tell Mom yet. I'll tell her after my little sister finishes her college entrance exam."

When Xia Enruo arrived at the store, Zhao Minghui had already instructed the employees to wash, cut, and shred the vegetables, just waiting for Xia Enruo to cook them.

In this way, Xia Enruo saved a lot of time and greatly improved her efficiency. Zhao Minghui was really a good helper.

He can handle any job, and most importantly, he has a keen eye. He can figure out the process of any task after just one look. Who wouldn't feel at ease with an employee like that?

"Minghui, was the store crowded yesterday?"

Xia Enruo didn't come to the medical university store yesterday, so she doesn't know what's going on there.

"Boss, there are a lot of people. It's probably because the new store is opening. Many people see that there are too many people queuing at the new store, so they come to the old store instead."

"All the meals from yesterday were sold out, not a single one was left. The supermarket on the second floor was even more crowded, and we had to restock four times. Fortunately, we had practiced beforehand, and the staff were very efficient."

"That's good. Remember, service comes first, and your attitude must be excellent."

"Boss Xia, we haven't reported yesterday's accounts to you yet. You probably can't imagine how much our total revenue was yesterday?"

Seeing Zhao Minghui's excited, shining eyes, you could tell that he must have broken the store's opening day record yesterday.

"2000 yuan?"

Xia Enru guessed a number.

Zhao Minghui looked at her and shook his head, only smiling.

3000 yuan

Zhao Minghui shook his head again.

"Is that too high or too low? 1500 yuan?"

This left Xia Enru somewhat puzzled.

"Low, too low, you could say extremely low!"

"Minghui, I have no idea how to guess that, just tell me!"

"Our store's turnover yesterday was a total of 8,721.3 yuan."

Zhao Minghui spoke with pride, as if he had won the championship.

"What? More than 8700 yuan?"

This was completely beyond Xia Enruo's expectations; she hadn't imagined the income would be so high! And it was just from one store!

Gu Shaoxuan, who was listening nearby, also widened his eyes. More than 8,000 yuan was more than the combined monthly salary of everyone in the regiment.

My wife can actually earn so much money now? This isn't just earning money, it's like money is falling from the sky!

"Minghui, are you kidding me? There are so many?"

"Boss, would I lie to you about this? Look at the bags of money in the shop, they're bulging. I slept in the shop yesterday, afraid someone would come and steal them."

"Minghui, you're right to be cautious. You did the right thing. It seems we should settle accounts every night from now on, otherwise this could really be a problem."

Zhao Minghui nodded. He was stunned when he counted the money yesterday; he had never seen so much money in his life.

He didn't even go home that night, sleeping in his dormitory on the second floor with his bag, afraid that something might happen.

"Boss, you have no idea what happened yesterday. Even the merchants who deliver goods to the supermarket were exhausted from running back and forth. They said they had never seen so many goods sold in a single day in their lives."

"They also said that the wholesalers around them are envious and want our supermarket to stock their products. They're even planning to come and discuss it with you!"

Xia Enruo was overjoyed when she heard this. Before, she had to go out and select items one by one, but now that things were popular, she had to go door-to-door to sell. But it was good, as long as the quality was good and the price was right, she could put them on the shelves. The more complete the product range, the higher the customer attraction rate.

Everyone wants to buy everything at once.

"Minghui, if someone comes to sell me a product while I'm not around, have them leave their contact information so we can discuss business cooperation another time."

"Okay, Mr. Xia. Next time I'll have to prepare a big phone book, otherwise I don't think I'll be able to remember them all."

"Is it bad if we can't remember them all? The more revenue our store generates, the more money everyone earns, and the better our lives become."
