Transmigrating to the 80s: I Rely on a Supermarket System to Get Rich

Welcome to the 80s—

Zheng Dandan unexpectedly transmigrated and bound a supermarket system. She does business, gains experience, and upgrades to unlock various products: grain, oil, rice, n...

Chapter 12: Moved, each calculating

"Where do we get so many apples to sell?" Sun Cuilan asked Zheng Dandan. Selling them was easy, but where did the apples come from? Even if they could be found in the mountains, how many would there be?

"Leave this matter to me. As long as you agree, I guarantee that there will be no worries." Zheng Dandan said confidently.

Although Sun Cuilan was nervous, she couldn't bear to question Zheng Dandan, so she nodded and said, "Okay, let's try it tomorrow."

How could someone who could publicly throw a tantrum and force Cheng Huadong to marry Zheng Dandan not have some courage to risk everything? She was afraid and uneasy, but that was nothing compared to life.

"Well, let's set off tomorrow. I've been busy these two days and found some things in the mountains. I hid them in the cabinet!" As he spoke, Zheng Dandan opened the cabinet.

"Why didn't you call your brother and sister-in-law when you went to the mountains?" Sun Cuilan was still frightened by the last time Zheng Dandan fell down the slope. However, the next moment, she was stunned, and all the thoughts in her mind disappeared in an instant, leaving a blank.

Potatoes, cabbage, radishes, apples, oranges... the cabinet is full.

"Girl, where did you get these?" Sun Cuilan asked in shock. She couldn't believe there were so many things on the mountain.

Zheng Dandan also thought it was absurd to say that they found all the apples in the mountains, so she said, "Some were found in the mountains, and some were exchanged with Cheng Huadong. You know, he likes apples."

Sun Cuilan didn't know that Cheng Huadong was interested in apples because he saw business opportunities. After hearing what Zheng Dandan said, she just thought that Cheng Huadong liked eating apples, so he made an exchange with her.

"Girl, how do we set the price?" Sun Cuilan asked after resolving her doubts.

"Radishes, cabbages, and potatoes are five cents per pound, and apples and tangerines are 1.2 yuan per pound," Zheng Dandan replied. Within the supermarket system, potatoes are slightly more expensive than radishes and cabbages, at two cents per pound. Considering the current market conditions, she offered the same price, which was convenient. The same applies to tangerines; overall, both sides are profitable.

After the two of them had discussed it, they couldn't help but look forward to tomorrow.

In the evening, Zheng's brothers and sisters-in-law returned home dejectedly after work. In the fields, they had been subjected to a lot of pointing and talking, and they were in a depressed mood, with almost everyone having a gloomy face.

"Mom, after Dad was suspended from his job, our family isn't as comfortable as before. The burden is too heavy. Do you think you can let your younger sister try working in the fields? She can help out a little and get more food." During dinner, the second sister-in-law Fang Xiaoyu suggested.

When Sun Cuilan heard this, her face darkened and she looked at Fang Xiaoyu with a stern face.

Although Fang Xiaoyu was afraid in her heart, she remained calm. "Mom, just do something easy. I don't want to see my little sister suffer. But without Dad's salary, our family's financial situation doesn't allow her to be idle like before."

"Dandan won't be idle. She has something to do tomorrow. If you really can't stay at home, I will go to work and Dandan will take care of the house." Sun Cuilan said, looking at Fang Xiaoyu.

If business goes well and the family is no worse off than when there were workers, that would be great. But if business doesn't go well, Fang Xiaoyu's words are not without reason, and the family burden is heavy, then she can go to work in the fields!

Sun Cuilan really couldn't bear to see her daughter suffer. In the past, their family had a good environment and Zheng Dandan had never suffered. Now that she was suddenly asked to go, how could she bear it?

Second sister-in-law Fang Xiaoyu was afraid of Sun Cuilan from the bottom of her heart. She finally mustered up the courage to ask Sun Cuilan for something. Although Sun Cuilan didn't agree, she had already made a compromise. How could Fang Xiaoyu dare to act rashly?

After finishing the tasteless meal, I quickly packed up and went back to my room.

"Jiangong, Mom won't hate me, right? I really have no choice. We are so tired every day, and we are pointed at and laughed at in the fields, but I have no complaints. Now Dad has been suspended and is not working, Mom is at home, and my younger sister is still idle. There is not much harvest in the fields, how can we support three idle people?" In the room, Fang Xiaoyu confided to Zheng Jiangong, the second brother of the Zheng family. She was very uneasy.

"It's okay, you're right, my little sister isn't laughing anymore." Zheng Jiangong, the second brother of the Zheng family, patted Fang Xiaoyu on the back and comforted her.

He had indeed felt a little uncomfortable because of his wife's words, but after careful consideration, he believed that his wife really had no choice. The family was in a difficult situation! One worker could support a family. In the past, when conditions were good, no one cared. Now that Zheng's father had been fired and had no source of income, the Zheng family was suddenly stretched to the limit.

Even though you have a certain amount of wealth, can you still live off it all?

"My sister-in-law is just as thoughtful as I am, but she keeps quiet, waiting for me to speak. I'm so stupid!" Fang Xiaoyu said sullenly. Sisters-in-law understand each other very well. Zheng's sister-in-law is also quite thoughtful, but she tolerates it and rarely speaks, always waiting for Fang Xiaoyu to speak out. This time was no exception, and Fang Xiaoyu was very unhappy.

"It's okay, Mom won't blame you." Zheng Jiangong didn't know how to say anything to his sister-in-law, so he could only keep comforting his wife.

In the room of the eldest brother Zheng Jianye, the eldest sister-in-law He Yuegui was also commenting on Zheng Dandan's work in the fields.

"It's good for Dandan to take care of the family. If she goes to work, she might even end up doing more harm than good. It'll be a little easier for us when Mom goes to the fields. I just don't know if Dad can..."

He Yuegui is more thoughtful than Fang Xiaoyu, and her eyes are not only on Sun Cuilan and Zheng Dandan.

In the past, Zheng's father was a worker. He had to go to work and contribute a lot to the family, so of course he didn't need to go to the fields. But now he has been suspended from work, and he is old enough to work, so why can't he go to the fields?

The eldest brother Zheng Jianye frowned when he heard this. "What are you thinking? Dad has given so much to the family over the years, how can he go back to the fields?"

"Why not? Dad is still in good health and can work!" He Yuegui disagreed.

"Don't say that casually." Zheng Jianye warned He Yuegui seriously.

"I know. I'll wait for my second brother's wife to speak." He Yuegui agreed. She didn't plan to bring it up herself.

"Don't push my second brother and his wife!" Zheng Jianye's face was very bad. "Dad has worked hard for many years and deserves this family. We are used to working in the fields and don't think it's a big deal, but Dad can't stand it!"

He Yuegui didn't think much of it. They were all farmers, so what was there to be upset about? Besides, because of Zheng's father, they had been talked about and criticized recently. If Zheng's father went out, wouldn't they also be relieved of the pressure?

Seeing that He Yuegui didn't take his words to heart, Zheng Jianye warned, "Follow me and work for the next two days, and don't go to see my second brother's wife."

It seems that Fang Xiaoyu, the second sister-in-law of the Zheng family, is thoughtful and always calculating, but Zheng Jianye knows clearly that Fang Xiaoyu is often instigated and influenced by his wife.

Although He Yuegui was not happy that her man was serious, she did not object in the end.

Sun Cuilan had no idea what He Yuegui was planning. She lay in bed, thinking about business matters, very excited, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Because the goods were provided by Zheng Dandan, she and Zheng Dandan agreed that she would give Zheng Dandan a portion of the profits. But even so, the profit was still very attractive. Besides, isn't Zheng Dandan's also the Zheng family's?
