Late 60s Alien's Daily Life

Alien Yeshi starved to death, yet miraculously came back to life. She arrived in a strange place where the creatures weren't very hairy, liked to wear a layer of "skin" on their bodies,...

Chapter 129

She just couldn't understand it. They were clearly making money selling clothes, but her daughter couldn't see the money; she could only see the small things that could be solved.

Yu Guiping felt that her daughter was nothing like her. Although she was not old, she lived like an old lady, just guarding her small plot of land.

"She has no drive or ambition whatsoever, just like her dead father!"

Even though she was furious, Wang Ma couldn't let Grandma Yu's money go to waste.

Knowing that the Mei family had been extremely busy lately, Wang's father didn't bother them. He borrowed a car from a colleague, and the three of them went to pick up the goods together that night.

Although Grandma Yu was unreliable, she was right about renting a shop. Wool sweaters are different from those other blouses; it would be a waste to sell them at a street stall.

Because Wang's parents had to go to work, the task of finding a shop fell to Wang Ce Lou, who didn't have many classes.

Whenever Wang Celou had free time, he would ride his bicycle around looking for empty shops.

However, by this time, most of the shops along the street had been rented out, and Wang Ce Lou searched for several days but could not find a suitable shop.

Mei Si had dinner with Wang Ce Lou and then went back to his room with him.

"Ce Lou, what's wrong with Uncle and Aunt? They look just like that Grandma Xu from the street ahead." Mei Si had wanted to ask about this earlier, but when she saw Ce Lou glaring at her, she didn't ask in front of Wang's parents.

"Pfft! How can you describe it like that? If my mom heard that, she'd definitely pinch you!" Wang Celou was amused by Mei Si's description.

Upon closer reflection, he realized that his parents' worried and distressed appearance these past few days was indeed similar to that of Grandma Xu, who had lost her husband on the street ahead.

“That’s right! It’s leaking, but neither Uncle nor Auntie is missing, so what are they worried about?” Mei Si leaned forward, closer to Wang Ce Lou, and asked in a low voice.

"These things are none of your concern, little girl!" Wang Celou pointed his index finger at Mei Si's forehead and pushed her away slightly. "Have you started training lately?"

“Training has started, but I took the day off because my brother’s shop is opening today.” Mei Si sat up straight as Wang Ce Lou pulled her up, grabbed Wang Ce Lou’s fingers that he was trying to pull back, and fiddled with them in her hand.

"Your main focus is on training; you don't need to worry about anything else."

Wang Celou tried to pull his finger out, but couldn't, so he stopped bothering with it and let Mei Si do as she pleased.

"Oh!" Mei Si nodded obediently, deciding to stop thinking about it.

A few days later, Wang Ce Lou finally found a shop in a good location, paid the rent, and his family went there that evening to clean.

"Should we spend money to make a signboard?" When Wang's father came back from taking out the trash, he saw that other shops had signs, but his own shop was empty.

"I'll find someone to get the plaque made tomorrow." Wang Celou was sweeping dust off the ceiling when he heard his father's words, so he stopped and said.

"Don't go for anything too expensive. We'll only rent it for six months. Once we sell the sweaters, we'll quit," Wang Ma interjected.

"clear."

Wang Celou did not tell his parents that he planned to keep the clothing store open.

Lately, he's been thinking about what industry he should go into. Now that Grandma Yu has gotten hold of such a sought-after item as a wool sweater, he's finally decided to try selling clothes.

“We have a shop, but it’s quite far from your maternal grandparents’ house. We have to transfer buses. In another month, if it snows, your maternal grandparents…” Wang Ma began to worry about who would take care of the shop after the snowfall.

After deciding to rent the shop, the whole family unanimously decided to let Grandma Yu run it, so that she could no longer be a hands-off manager.

Last time, it was because she didn't sell the clothes, and the money came too easily, that she kept ordering more and more stock.

This time, we must let Grandma Yu know just how difficult it is to do business, so that she will give up the idea of ​​doing business.

“Grandma only needs to come for a few days. Once we hire someone, Grandma won’t need to come anymore,” Wang Celou said, turning around as he propped the broom up against the wall.

"Huh? Hire someone? That won't do. How much would it cost to hire someone? No way!" Aunt Wang waved her hand and said.

"Leave this to me, I guarantee the clothes will sell fast!" Wang Celou had thought about this before. Neither his mother nor his grandmother were cut out for business. If he let them sell wool sweaters, they might actually lose money or not be able to sell them at all.

Wang Celou: To sell things, you still need to find someone who can talk well.

“Since our son has already figured things out, you shouldn’t get involved. Our mother isn’t cut out for business. Can you really trust her to sell it?” Mr. Wang felt that business decisions should be made by his son, since he was the only one in their family who was smart.

"Well... how about we hire someone and give it a try?"

“But we can’t tell Grandma about hiring people yet,” Wang Celou suddenly said.

"Why not tell... Oh! That's a good idea!" Just as Wang Ma was about to ask why they couldn't tell Grandma Yu, she realized her son's intention in doing so.

"You guys! I don't know anything about this!" Wang's father quickly distanced himself, deciding that if Grandma Yu asked about it in the future, he would say he didn't know anything.
