Lin Xiangyi: “…”
"I have rarely seen a man who feels sorry for his wife because she is pregnant and doesn't let her work, but I have seen it before. It's nothing unusual. But I have never seen a man who says that the wife is the boss of the family and says it so calmly and confidently!"
Grandma Liu said in surprise: "Even if he is a live-in son-in-law, the wife is the one who makes the decisions at home, but she is afraid of being laughed at outside, so she insists that she is the head of the family."
Grandma Liu: "Isn't your husband a live-in son-in-law?"
Lin Xiangyi: "No..."
"I knew it wasn't his case. Your man looks a lot stronger than you and doesn't look like a gigolo," said Grandma Liu.
"..." Lin Xiangyi originally thought that Xie Qingxiao was very good to her, but after hearing what Grandma Liu said... it seemed that Xie Qingxiao was indeed very good to her?
"He looks like such a tough man, but he can be so accommodating to you. Such a man is really rare! Xiangyi, you must cherish Axiao!" Grandma Liu advised earnestly.
"Yeah," Lin Xiangyi nodded quickly, "I know!"
She felt that if she didn't respond to Grandma Liu again, Grandma Liu would probably think that she was ungrateful for what she had.
Grandma Liu immediately looked at Lin Xiangyi with satisfaction.
Xiangyi is a very good person! Xiao didn't marry the wrong person.
This young couple is really great!
Soon, they arrived at Grandma Liu's house.
"Come in, come in," Grandma Liu greeted Lin Xiangyi with a smile. Their home was in a building, which was a bit crowded and narrow. "Sit on the sofa for a while. I'll pour you a glass of water."
Grandma Liu was very enthusiastic and was busy greeting Lin Xiangyi.
The bedroom door opened, and Grandma Liu's daughter-in-law came out: "Mom, what are you doing? Hey, aren't you the girl who sells braised food?"
"Aunt Liu, yes," Lin Xiangyi stood up and said with a smile.
"I invited her to come over. Didn't I tell you that? I wanted to sell braised food with them, and she came to discuss this with us," Grandma Liu said with a smile, "Big brother's wife, if you are free, go and call Mrs. Liang and Ah Ming for me. Tell them that Xiangyi is here, and they will come over."
Aunt Liu looked at her mother-in-law, thinking for a moment, and said, "Okay, I'll go call them."
"Xiang Yi, wait a minute. There are two other people who want to sell braised food with you guys just like me," Grandma Liu said with a smile, "We'll talk after they get here."
It’s good to have more people. Lin Xiangyi smiled and said, “Good.”
Soon, Liang Pozi and A Ming, whom Grandma Liu mentioned, arrived. They were also frequent customers of Lin Xiangyi's braised food. Lin Xiangyi knew them and they chatted quite well.
After chatting for a while, Grandma Liu got to the point: "Xiangyi, Xiao told you that we want to sell our goods with you. What do you think?"
"Of course," Lin Xiangyi said.
Grandma Liu and the others were very happy to hear this, and then they heard Lin Xiangyi say: "However, we have to change the way of cooperation."
Grandma Liu and the others were stunned and asked hurriedly, "What kind of cooperation method are you changing? Not with that person? Is it the same as Pengfei and Guoqiang? We buy the goods from you and then get commissions."
Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang also came to the gate of the textile factory's staff quarters to sell braised food. Grandma Liu and others saw that they bought the same braised food as Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi, so they asked them about it.
So they knew that Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang bought goods from Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi and got commissions.
Of course, Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang did not say how much commission they received.
But Grandma Liu and the others did the math: Even if Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang made 1 cent per kilogram of goods, business was so good that they could sell at least 20 to 30 kilograms a day, so it would be no problem for them to make two or three dollars a day.
At the end of that month, the income was sixty to ninety yuan!
Before, Grandma Liu thought that doing business was shameful. When she first saw Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi selling goods, she thought they were forced to do so and felt quite sympathetic towards them.
After doing the math, she found that the salary from doing business was two or three times higher than that from working in the company. She immediately forgot about the idea that "doing business is shameful".
She had the idea of doing business with Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi.
The same is true for Mrs. Liang and Amin.
But now, Lin Xiangyi said he wanted to change the way of cooperation?
Grandma Liu and the others looked at Lin Xiangyi in confusion.
"Yes," Lin Xiangyi took a sip of water and said, "Let's change the way of cooperation. We sell the goods to you at a discount, and you raise the price and sell it back, making a profit from the difference."
"This..." Grandma Liu and others looked at each other in bewilderment.
"In other words, we buy the braised food from you at a low price, and then we resell it. How much profit we make is our business and none of yours?" asked Amin, a boy in his twenties.
"Yes," Lin Xiangyi nodded, "Once the goods are sold, they cannot be returned or exchanged. You are responsible for your own profits and losses."
Grandma Liu and others: “…” Doesn’t this mean that their risk has increased?
If they buy the goods but can't sell them, wouldn't that be a waste of money?
This was a fair way of trading, but Liang Pozi, who originally thought that she could be like Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang without taking such a big risk, was a little unhappy: "Then why don't Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang bear their own profits and losses?"
But she heard that Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang didn't have to pay any money, and if they couldn't sell the goods, they could take them back and give them to Xie Qingxiao and Lin Xiangyi to sell together.
Lin Xiangyi said calmly: "They are all our brothers."
Grandma Liu and A Ming understood. Since he was their younger brother, wasn't it normal for him to be treated better than outsiders like them?
Mrs. Liang still wanted to fight for it. She tried to play the emotional card with Lin Xiangyi: "Xiangyi, we have bought braised food from you so many times, why are you still so distant with us? Just let us sell goods with you like Pengfei and the others."
"Grandma Liang, this really won't work," Lin Xiangyi smiled and shook her head. Zhang Pengfei and Xie Guoqiang were close to them and had been working with them from the beginning. They could let them take back the unsold goods and they could work together to find a way to sell out the goods.
But when Grandma Liu and her friends took the goods out to sell, they could not give them such a promise.
After all, if they want to engage in wholesale in the future, it means that more and more people will come to them to purchase goods. If those people who purchase goods cannot sell all of them, will they have to give them back?
"Sister Liang, this is your fault. How can such a good thing happen in the world? You want to make money and you want others to take risks for you?" Grandma Liu also spoke up for Lin Xiangyi:
"If you're worried about not being able to sell the goods, then don't buy so much. Xiangyi, don't listen to her. Just tell us, how much discount can you give us if we buy the goods from you?"
