That's why he doesn't want to be looked down upon by his colleagues once he gets married.
"Okay, Sister Huifang, since you've already made up your mind about this matter, let's think of another way. Sister Huifang, would you like to go to the commune and set up a stall in the morning?"
"I'm going to set up a stall too? I don't even know what I can sell?"
"There are so many things you can display! Sister Huifang, you can try selling breakfast. It doesn't have to be too complicated! Just sell steamed buns, steamed bread, and flower rolls. You can also add fried dough sticks and steamed buns. See what sells best and make adjustments then."
"Our commune has a total population of over 10,000 people across all the brigades. During the past few months I've been setting up stalls in the commune, I've discovered that there are still a small number of families who are well-off and willing to spend a little on food and clothing."
"This small number is more than enough for a small stall like ours to get customers every day. If there are more, we won't be able to handle it for the time being!"
"Even if we want to expand our stall and absorb more, there are still some risks nowadays. It's safer to set up a small stall first, so that others won't think we've made a lot of money and are not taking the right path, and then get jealous and try to harm us behind our backs!"
"Xiaobei, is it really possible? I can try to make all the things you mentioned, but I've never set up a stall before. I'm afraid if I can't do it well, I won't even be able to make back my investment."
Fan Huifang was somewhat moved by Shen Xiaobei's suggestion.
In any case, if I marry Ye Zhicheng in the future, it would be better to work outside on my own than to accept the logistical job that Ye Zhicheng introduced to me.
"Sister Huifang, as long as you make good products, you will definitely make back your investment!"
"Actually, I was thinking that cold dishes might not sell well in cold weather, so I thought about switching to selling the breakfast items I just mentioned for a while in November and December. Then, next summer, I'll go back to selling cold dishes."
"However, my cold dishes are still selling well every day, and I have many regular customers. Therefore, I am not thinking about switching to selling breakfast for the time being. It just so happens that you, Sister Huifang, can do it!"
"Xiaobei, if I also go to set up a stall, then I won't be able to work the morning shift. If neither of us works the morning shift, I wonder if Captain Ma will have any objections."
"Captain Ma probably won't do that. He treats us educated youth differently anyway. Besides, we haven't missed our morning and afternoon work!"
Persuaded by Shen Xiaobei, Fan Huifang agreed to give it a try and went to the commune to sell breakfast in the morning.
However, she had not yet married Ye Zhicheng, so she naturally could not live with him in the commune. In order to go to the commune to set up her stall every day, she must have a bicycle to ride there.
The idea was proposed by Shen Xiaobei, and the task of going to the county town to help Fan Huifang find an old bicycle naturally fell on Shen Xiaobei.
She took advantage of a half-day holiday in the production team and went to the county town to find Brother Qiao, who had sold her the bicycle last time.
Brother Qiao is naturally very enthusiastic when it comes to returning customers.
He didn't have any old bicycle to resell for the time being, but he immediately took Shen Xiaobei to a ragtag guy he knew and bought an old bicycle from him for 25 yuan.
In Fan Huifang's view, an old bicycle is a valuable item, so she naturally would not accept it for free.
At her insistence, Shen Xiaobei accepted an IOU she wrote, and she happily accepted this means of transportation that could belong to her.
After spending a few days assisting Fan Huifang in officially launching the breakfast stall, Shen Xiaobei finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When she closed the door at night, under the gentle candlelight, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips and reviewed the four paintings by Duan Xichuan twice.
Then, a person began to "write back" to Duan Xichuan romantically and sweetly.
