Chapter 111: Goods from the Railway Station



Zhang Qiu glared at her and said, "You're doing well in the state-owned restaurant. Why do you want to give up such a good job?"

Xia Wanshu nodded. "No, this state-owned restaurant looks good now, but it's not a long-term job. The managers are all looking for other opportunities, and I have to think about the future."

Xiangnan smiled and said, "Wanshu, if you really come with me to make cakes, Manager Yu will probably scold me for stealing his employees."

"Sister Xiangnan's cakes are very profitable. I earn 30 yuan a month at a state-owned restaurant, but Sister Xiangnan can sell 30 yuan of cakes in a day!

Water flows to the low places, people go to the high places!"

Zhang Qiu disagreed: "Don't just look at the present. State-owned restaurants are stable jobs. You get a pension after retirement. You can sell things yourself and make money, but you still have to pay taxes and various management fees..."

"Uncle Zhang, I've made up my mind. I like eating cakes, and I like all the flavors of cakes made by Sister Xiangnan. I want to learn how to make them.

Sister Xiangnan told me that there are many more desserts that I want to learn. I think I will be very happy if I can make sweet and delicious cakes! "

In fact, it was not for money. Xia Wanshu really liked the cakes made by Xiangnan. She also liked sweets and thought they were cute.

Especially when Xiangnan told her that there were many desserts, such as mousse, donuts, pineapple buns, etc., her heart flew away.

She was waiting for a store to open in the south, so she flew over to learn.

"What a silly child! Everyone else is trying so hard to get into the state-owned restaurant, but she's the only one who wants to leave."

Xiangnan smiled and said, "That's no problem for me. Wanshu, you have to convince your family."

Lin Tian said, "I have a cousin who is very honest and hardworking. Something happened at home recently and she is looking for a job. You can ask her to try."

Xiangnan nodded: "Okay, bring her here tomorrow afternoon."

After dinner, Xia Wanshu and Yang Xiao accompanied Xiangnan to visit the night stalls.

The night stalls in An County are stalls set up at night. The advantage of setting up stalls at night is that you don’t have to pay industrial and commercial management tax, also known as land tax.

Find a good place to set up your stall.

The night stalls in An County are quite lively, especially in the summer. When the weather cools down at night, everyone likes to go out for a walk.

There are many people in the city who eat commercial grain, and they have more or less extra money, so many of them buy snacks and small accessories.

Many young people who are in love come to the night stalls.

Xiangnan bought a lot of small things, two bows for Wanshu, and a big door for Yang Xiao.

This cigarette is not easy to buy, even in packs, but it is really good to smoke, and it is not expensive at night stalls, only 30 cents a pack.

It’s much cheaper than the Hongtashan cigarette she bought last time.

"I didn't expect that I could buy them in cartons. These cigarettes are not expensive, but they are ugly and hard to buy." Yang Xiao accepted them happily without refusing.

"There are still a lot of treasures at the night stall." Xiangnan said as he walked towards the stall selling clothes.

The clothes at this night stall are pretty nice. You can tell they're from Guangzhou. The quality is slightly lower than those sold in department stores, but they're much prettier and more fashionable than those at other stalls.

Xiangnan pointed to a pair of large yellow bell-bottom pants and asked, "How much is this?"

"Five yuan. Don't be fooled by its high price. This is authentic Guangzhou product. You can't buy it anywhere else."

"Can you sell it for four dollars?" Xiangnan bargained.

"Lady, you're bargaining too hard! This is genuine Guangzhou merchandise. Don't think it's bad just because I'm setting up a night stall. The minimum price should be 4.80 yuan, otherwise I won't make any profit."

The stall owner was a thin man in his thirties with a shrewd look on his face.

"Who knows if the goods from Yangcheng are genuine? How can I believe you? Yangcheng is seven or eight hours away from here by train. How can you go to Yangcheng to buy the goods yourself?"

"Oh, you don't understand. Someone brought the goods from Guangzhou to us. I picked them up at the train station. I paid four yuan for them!"

"Four dollars and fifty cents. I want to buy more from you. This one, this one, this one, this one, this one, all of them." Xiangnan ordered more than ten pieces of clothing in one breath, including skirts, tops, pants, half-skirts, and jeans.

When the stall owner saw that Xiangnan wanted to buy even jeans, he knew that she was an expert and someone who knew what was good.

He thought for a moment and said, "Four dollars and sixty cents, little sister, you have to let me make some money. The goods from Yangcheng are not available every day. I can only get the next batch in five days."

"Okay, four dollars and sixty is four dollars and sixty, these are all the same price."

"Yes, they are all the same price. I bought them at my discretion. Little sister, you are also a person who buys the goods. I heard from the people who bought the jeans in Guangzhou that they are just becoming popular there.

Bell-bottoms are just becoming popular here, but few people like them there anymore."

Xiangnan smiled and said, "You can ask them to sell bell-bottom pants at a lower price in the future. They are just becoming popular here so we can sell them at a higher price."

"That's what I said, but they charge a flat price of four dollars for everything, big or small. They sell quickly, and they have to leave when the train leaves."

Xiangnan bought nearly twenty pieces and gave more than eighty yuan to the night stall owner Zhao Peng.

Zhao Peng was very happy to have earned more than ten yuan in one night. He smiled and said, "Little sister, if you need to buy something next time, come to me."

"I will definitely buy more in the future, but these are the only clothes you have that I like. The others are hard to match.

If you like, next time the Yangcheng goods arrive, ask me to go with you to pick them up. I will give you 20 cents per piece as a reward for your hard work."

Zhao Peng was a little hesitant. At 20 cents per piece, he didn't have to work hard to set up a stall here to sell it, so it was indeed possible.

But he was afraid that Xiangnan would dump him after he knew the source of the goods.

"You don't have to worry about me leaving you behind to buy from them. I can sign an agreement with you."

Zhao Peng laughed. This little sister was quite sensible and could see at a glance what he was worried about.

"Okay, let's sign an agreement. You can come with me when the goods arrive in a few days."

Yang Xiao took a pen and paper from the car, wrote an agreement to Xiangnan and signed it: "Keep it, but don't worry, if I really want to steal your business and not pay you, you can go and smash my storefront, and I will open a store in the First Market."

Zhao Peng put the agreement away and said, “I see you bought a lot of other goods, and the delivery person from Yangcheng also has other goods.

They have shoes, necklaces, and other accessories for girls. You can get them anything you want."

"Okay, take me there, and I'll pay you for your hard work."

"Okay, take care then."

Tired from strolling around, Yang Xiao bought a popsicle for everyone to eat while sitting on a roadside stall. Xiangnan was a little disgusted: "It tastes like saccharin. It can cool you down, but it's not tasty."

Xia Wanshu asked happily, "Sister Xiangnan, can you make other popsicles?"

"Yes, I'll make it for you when our cake shop is ready. The creamy ice cream at home is delicious."

"Sister Xiangnan, I'll go home with you tomorrow!"

Yang Xiao said with a smile: "Not only did this girl lose her job for food, but now she wants to sell herself."

"She's the only reason my business is here. Are we having barbecue tonight? I've been walking around for so long and I'm feeling hungry."

"What is barbecue?"
