Chapter 1196 Opening a Store

"In the early stages, I'll mainly sell tobacco, alcohol, sugar, tea, and other non-staple foods, along with some needles, thread, and daily necessities. I estimate I can set the store up with just over 2,000 yuan."

"Two thousand! How can I get that?" An Lizhi's heart, which had just ignited, was extinguished again.

Two thousand is just the cost of opening a store. You have to buy or rent a house in Chengshan Commune, which is another expense.

Don’t even think about opening a store without four or five thousand yuan.

Her family doesn't even have four or five hundred, let alone four or five thousand.

"Money is not a problem, you will make some money soon." With a god of wealth like Wan Feng living in his house, making a little money is like playing.

"Will you make a fortune soon? Where will you make it?"

"I'll give you a deal in a couple of days. All you have to do is run some errands. I'll give you a 10% commission. If you close this deal, the money you earn will basically be enough to start your own business."

Zhan Honggui was completely confused as to what kind of business he could do to earn three or four thousand yuan.

"Let's put the store opening aside for now. Let's focus on slaughtering the pig tomorrow. You have to find a few people to catch the pig tomorrow morning. Sister-in-law, you don't have to go to the fields tomorrow. Just stay at home and take care of the pig tomorrow morning."

"Don't go to the fields? My land is already not ready for harvest. If I don't go to the fields now, won't it delay it even more?" An Lizhi was so worried about this little bit of land. If she delayed it for another half day, it would delay it even more.

"Someone will come to work on your land tomorrow. Once the pig is killed and cut up, you will just be responsible for making lunch. Someone will be here to eat at noon tomorrow."

An Lizhi was confused. Aren’t the pigs taken away after they are slaughtered?
