Chapter 272 What is Planning?
"You're staying this long! I thought you'd only stay for three to five days at most!"
"What? Business isn't busy lately?" Yao Shula asked, fanning herself with a banana leaf fan.
Lei Jingwu, however, fanned the fan in his hand even larger.
"Not bad! Business is never-ending! I'm here today for some business."
Firstly, I wanted to see Xiaotian and see if he was being naughty. Secondly, Zhou Pingan got married, and I've known him for so many years, so I definitely had to come and visit.
Thirdly, I've also come to tell you something. Lei Jingwu watched as Yao Shula fanned herself even faster with the banana leaf fan in her hand.
Yao Shula raised an eyebrow; it seemed this matter was related to her!
"What's wrong?" Yao Shula leaned forward.
Lei Jingwu lowered his voice and glanced outside the courtyard.
"It's about the little shop that rents your house. The information I've heard is that the supply and marketing cooperative is going to close it down," Lei Jingwu said in a low voice.
Yao Shula's eyes lit up immediately.
"Is that little shop closing down?"
"Yes, you won't have to pay 20 yuan in rent every month anymore. But if you rent the house to someone else, it will be more than 20 yuan a month. You might even be able to rent it for 30 yuan a month or more!"
However, I don't think you need to rent out that house. It's in a good location. You can take it over, open a small shop, and then install a telephone.
The shop is in the front, and you live in the back; it doesn't interfere with your daily life.
"Isn't this better than that previous recreational ball stand?" Lei Jingwu said.
Yao Shula's recreational ball stall was transferred last year.
To whom was it transferred?
It was Brother Liu, who used to enjoy playing pool here and had some business dealings with Lei Jingwu. He spent 300 yuan to buy all three sets of pool tables.
I heard he opened a stall near his house, and his elderly mother runs it.
Yao Shula was still thinking about doing something else...
"The supply and marketing cooperative really isn't operating here anymore! That would be wonderful."
Chun Nian told me the other day that she was going to rent a room next door specifically to sell peanuts.
That little shop is connected to the house that Sister Chun Nian has her eye on. If I'm busy, Sister Chun Nian can help me keep an eye on it!
Lei Jingwu, is this news confirmed? If it is, that would be great.
"That way I can rent out all three newly built storefronts in front!" Yao Shula was so happy that she kept fanning herself with her banana leaf fan.
Lei Jingwu was happy for Yao Shula when he saw her so happy.
Open your own small shop, and then find someone to install a telephone here... It will be much more convenient to make phone calls in the future.
The other three storefronts can also generate rent, and with the subsidies from the machinery factory, Yao Shula and her brother's lives will only get better and better.
"It's almost certainly true! I've got someone keeping an eye on it for you!"
I'll have Brother Liu keep an eye on what to sell in the shop. He's doing quite well now, and he has connections with all kinds of goods.
"I'm sure I can make your shop even more bustling than before," Lei Jingwu said readily.
Yao Shula nodded.
This scene appeared in her mind...
It was a sweltering summer day. The sun was high in the sky, cicadas were chirping in the treetops, and the leaves didn't even twitch. She ran a small shop, with an ice cream freezer outside selling popsicles. She lay on a wicker chair behind the counter, an popsicle in her hand, enjoying the breeze from the electric fan...
When someone comes, I get up and sell something...
This life is so comfortable!
As Yao Shula thought about it, her eyes narrowed.
Lei Jingwu watched as Yao Shula pursed her lips, sometimes smiling and sometimes humming triumphantly, and suddenly felt a sense of comfort in his heart.
Over the years, Yao Shula has always struck him as a self-reliant, strong, and exceptionally independent girl.
It seems that Yao Shula is always on edge, she doesn't dare to relax for a moment, she only thinks about her younger brothers and sisters, oh, and also little Tiantian.
Yao Shula now... seems to have come back to life.
Yao Shula let out a long sigh of relief. She put down the banana leaf fan and served Lei Jingwu a bowl of mung bean soup.
"You'd better pay attention to this! I'll be waiting at home for your good news."
Lei Jingwu agreed immediately.
...
The two chatted about other things, and Yao Shula turned to the side and squinted at the clock in the main room. It was still early, and there was still some time before they could prepare dinner.
"When my cousin Yamin and Zhou Ping'an get married, are you going to give a wedding gift or a present?" Yao Shula asked Lei Jingwu again.
"I brought a tea set with me, and I also bought them a pair of plum blossom watches."
Oh, and I'll add an extra 100 yuan as a gift!
"What are you planning to give?" Lei Jingwu asked Yao Shula.
Yao Shula nodded in agreement when she heard that Lei Jingwu had prepared these things.
These gifts are quite generous! There are congratulatory gifts, watches, and even a hundred yuan in cash.
This completely outshines other people's gifts of bed sheets, blankets, hot water bottles, and washbasins.
"Here? I made two sets of bed sheets and duvet covers for my cousin Yamin, as well as two sets of curtains, and bought two sets of clothes for her."
"I'll also give my cousin Yamin a gift of fifty yuan," Yao Shula said, explaining her preparations.
Lei Jingwu nodded quickly upon hearing this.
That's quite a lot!
"Shura, didn't you leave five hundred dollars with me before? Later, you made a lot of money from it, and now you have quite a bit of money."
"Do you want to take some back?" Lei Jingwu asked.
Yao Shula shook her head.
"No need, I don't need the money right now, you can keep it."
"Oh, is that so? Then how about I use your money to buy you a house in Shanghai?" Lei Jingwu looked at Yao Shula's expression.
Yao Shula...
"You have that much money? Enough to buy a house in Shanghai?"
"Buying a big house is probably out of the question, but a not-too-big house is still an option."
"It's all about luck; you can't just buy it whenever you want!" Lei Jingwu said.
Yao Shula nodded immediately.
"Great! Buy whichever you need! As long as it's in Shanghai."
"Lei Jingwu, I can't go see him, so I'm leaving this to you!"
"What's the big deal? It's just a small thing. Recently, many families in Shanghai with some savings are thinking about going abroad and are planning to sell their houses!"
"Don't worry, I've got it covered!" Lei Jingwu patted his chest.
Yao Shula's eyes were filled with excitement.
In Shanghai now, any house you can buy is a good one!
This is like a windfall!
"that……"
"Have you thought about which school Shuxin should apply to?" Lei Jingwu suddenly asked.
