Chapter 40 You Have to Pay for What You Eat



Xiangnan said: "I'll go out and take a look."

When she went out, she saw Li You: "Hey, your injury is healed. I heard from your grandma that you were beaten so badly that you couldn't get out of bed."

"You're used to being beaten. Just lie down for two days and the injury will heal. Why didn't you go to town today? I heard from them that you haven't been there for two days. They are all missing you."

"I'm researching new food at home. You can try it."

Xiangnan brought out a plate of braised garlic shoots. Ever since Li You had eaten the delicious fish and meat that Xiangnan treated him to, he looked down on these vegetarian dishes and still ate the braised pork.

But he couldn't ignore the face his sister gave him.

He picked up a little with chopsticks and put it in his mouth, then picked up a little more and put it in his mouth, and finally his eyes lit up: "Sister, this is garlic shoots, can garlic shoots be eaten like this besides stir-fried with meat!"

"It tastes good, doesn't it? Do you think we can sell this in the county town?"

"Of course we can have it. It's so delicious. There are a lot of rich people in the county town, so there will definitely be people who will buy it. Even if you put it in the town, people will buy it."

“Okay, I’ll do it and you help me sell it.

I'll give you the cost price, and then you can sell it for as much as you want, and all the profits are yours."

Li You thought someone would definitely buy this thing, but...

"Sister, my dad agreed to let me start a business, but he only gave me 20 yuan as capital. I can't afford it."

"Then start small. You can sell cakes first. You don't need to invest any capital. Just give me fifty cents for each cake you sell."

She wanted to develop Li You's sales ability. This young man was good-looking and had a natural advantage in sales.

"Sister, aren't we going to Guangzhou to make a lot of money?" Li You asked doubtfully.

Xiangnan slapped him on the back of the head and said, "You're thinking about flying before you even learn to walk, right? Start with small things.

Selling braised dishes and cakes can both train your sales ability. As long as you learn how to sell things, you won’t have to worry about money in the future.

I'm not in a hurry to fly, so why are you flying? Aren't you afraid of falling to your death?"

She used to make tens of millions with a wave of her hand, but now she saves money penny by penny.

This kid Li You complains that he doesn't make enough money from selling cakes. Who gave him the courage to be so dissatisfied?

He is really a young boy who has never suffered any hardship.

Li You touched the back of his head that was hurt by the beating and smiled: "Sister, I understand. I'll go to Yangcheng later."

Xiangnan gave him a bowl of braised garlic sprouts and said, "Take these back for your family to eat. We only have 30 cakes at home now. Take them to town and sell them.

Now that your injury has healed, you should start working. Come back tomorrow to get the cakes. You have to sell me 100 cakes in three days, otherwise you can go home and study."

Li You patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, sister. I promise to complete the task."

"Remember this: harmony is the most important thing in our business, but even if someone bullies you, you don't have to be polite."

"Well, if you have any problems, I'll come to you. I can definitely kill them."

"What nonsense are you talking about? In a society ruled by law, we must abide by the law. How can we do whatever we want?

But don't be afraid of others looking for trouble. As long as we stand on our own merits, we won't be afraid even if the king or the emperor comes."

"Okay, sister, I heard that my brother-in-law was injured, so I brought two lucky fish here today. How is my brother-in-law now?"

Xiangnan smiled and said, "You are thoughtful. He is not seriously injured. He was unable to get out of bed for half a month after injuring his leg. He is sleeping now."

"Then I'll leave for now. There will be plenty of opportunities later."

Xiangnan nodded: "Be careful on the way. The cakes are all wrapped, put them in the basket."

Xiangnan packed the cake for Li You and also brought him a large bowl of braised garlic sprouts.

Li You happily rode away on his bicycle. When he passed the old elm tree at the entrance of the village, someone noticed him with sharp eyes.

"Li You!" Aunt Yang Shengli called out to him, "Why are you in our village? Would you like to come to my house and have a seat?"

Yang Shengli and Li You's second aunt are from the same village, and they are somewhat related.

Li You is not exaggerating when he says that he has relatives all over Heping Town.

"No, I'm here to see my sister, and I still have to go to town to sell cakes." Li You stopped his bike and greeted her.

Even though he is not someone I know very well, it is not easy to ignore him since we have such a small relationship.

Yang Shengli asked curiously, "Your sister married into our village? How come I didn't know?"

"My sister got married a long time ago. I'm talking about Xiangnan, your village."

Aunt Yang chuckled: "Xiangnan is really capable. She even asked you to recognize her as your sister."

"My sister is really talented. She says she's the only one who can make these cakes. She sells them in the county for one yuan a piece, and people are scrambling to buy them. She can sell hundreds of them in just one morning.

Who among you can earn as much money as she does? My sister is very kind and took me into business together."

When Li You talked about Xiangnan, his face was full of pride.

It just happened to be in Xiangnan’s village, so I had to praise Xiangnan a lot.

"Can this thing really be sold for one dollar in the county? There are actually people who eat it when it's so expensive?" Yang Shengli couldn't believe it.

If that's the case, that damn girl Xiangnan will definitely make a fortune.

She kept it a secret and didn't tell anyone in the village. She wouldn't even bring anyone in with her when she saw the news of her getting rich!

"There are many rich people in the county town. The main thing is that this cake made by my sister is delicious. Whoever eats it will miss it."

"This is the cake. Let me try it."

Yang Shengli walked over and lifted the cloth covering the cake. He took out a piece of cake, unwrapped the wrapping paper and threw it away, then took a bite of the cake.

Li You was stunned: "Auntie, I'm going to sell this for money. You have to pay for it if you eat it."

Yang Shengli waved his hand and said, "Young man, we are all neighbors. We took care of Xiangnan when she was little. We are all her elders.

You are helping her sell it, she usually gives us food.”

"Aunt Yang, is this delicious?" He Jinzhi also came over and took one: "Let me try it too."

Li You's face turned ugly: "This is for sale, you can't just take it casually, you have to pay after eating it."
