When Huo De saw her happy, he felt fulfilled in his heart. His wife was so easy to satisfy.
"Why don't you open the passbook and take a look." Hood said with a smile.
Xiangnan showed an expectant look, raised the corner of his mouth and opened the passbook, then his oily little mouth shrunk into an O shape in surprise: "How can there be so much?"
Xiangnan was a little bit unbelievable and counted the zeros again. Four zeros!
Although she has counted as many zeros as possible in later generations, in this era, a passbook with four zeros is more valuable than those zeros!
Although the first number is 1, Hood is only 28 years old. He is still so young and has saved more than 10,000!
These days, anyone with a monthly income of 10,000 yuan will be reported in the newspapers.
Huo De pinched her lips and said, "Close your mouth quickly. It's full enough to hold a goose egg."
This girl is the kind of person who would dare to run around with 20,000 yuan in her pocket, but she makes such a fuss when she sees 10,000 yuan. She's really a treasure.
Xiangnan hugged his waist and looked up and asked him: "Husband, how do you have so much money? The army is so profitable."
"I gave you all the money from the army last time. The money in this passbook was given by our elders. We can use it for our wedding, to buy a house, home appliances, whatever you want."
Xiangnan blinked. What kind of elder is this? Giving ten thousand for one... This is not an elder at all, he is simply the God of Wealth.
"Hehe, I got a great deal by marrying Brother Huo."
I originally thought his house only had three thatched houses, but it turned out that this guy hid them all.
Huo De tapped her forehead and said, "You dare to spend 10,000 yuan to rent a house, and you will care about this little money."
"That ten thousand was borrowed, and this ten thousand is our own. How can they be the same?"
Borrowings must be repaid eventually, but she is not worried. Once the market develops, the ten thousand yuan will be returned.
Huo De said lovingly: "Go ahead and buy whatever you want. Don't you want to buy a washing machine and a TV?"
Xiangnan shook his head: "I want to use it for investment. When I make money, a washing machine, TV and air conditioner will be a piece of cake."
The more money you have, the higher the return on your investment. In this era full of business opportunities, you may come across a big opportunity to make money while walking on the street.
"Then it's okay to make some roast duck tonight, right?" asked Hood.
Xiangnan kissed him and said, "Of course, I have to feed my brother Huo."
Zhou Xiumei only has a few ducks at home. She bought two from Xiangnan at noon today, so there are only two smaller ones left at home.
Xiangnan thought that he had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he left the task of building the house to Zhang Dalei, and asked Zhang Dalei to ask Huo De if he was unsure about anything.
Li Mo, Zhou Xiumei and three hired aunts baked cakes at home, and the three brothers of the Huo family ground beans. She could go to the town market to set up a clothing stall and then buy some vegetables.
We prepared two large tables for lunch today. The stock at home has been used up, so I will go with Aunt Qin to buy a few ducks.
When Doctor Wu mentioned Beijing roast duck, it reminded Xiangnan that Aunt Qin's family raised so many ducks. If they made them into roast duck and sold them in the county, wouldn't it be easy money?
It’s better than just selling ducks and duck eggs.
Xiangnan rode her bicycle and went out with her clothes stall. Li Youyou took cakes to sell this morning, so Xiangnan only took ten bottles of braised garlic sprouts and five bottles of bean curd sheets out.
Even though Heping Town can only be considered a rural area, not everyone is poor. There are still people with money in their pockets.
For example, Aunt Tang, the richest woman in Tianhe Village, who is from Zhou Ting’s village, buys several sets of skirts every time she comes to buy. Her family burns a kiln and sells red bricks.
Red bricks are selling well these days, and her family is the best seller of red bricks in the entire An County, so she is rich.
Xiangnan had just arrived at the market and set up his stall when Aunt Tang came with two other aunts. The two aunts didn't look like they were from Heping Town and spoke standard Mandarin.
Nowadays, only city dwellers can speak standard Mandarin, and even school teachers in the countryside teach in dialect.
Aunt Tang smiled and said to Xiangnan, "I told them you have some beautiful skirts, but they didn't believe me, so I brought them here to see.
You come and match a dress for each of them. As long as they change their minds and are satisfied, you can spend any amount of money."
Before Xiangnan could even begin to speak, a sharp-faced woman next to Aunt Tang said with disdain, "Just these skirts? They're not as good as the ones you'd find in the county department store. They look cheap and worthless."
The other round-faced man was very amiable: "Don't say that. Sister Tang said it's good, so it must not be bad."
Xiangnan said calmly, "Auntie, these skirts of mine are all purchased from the county department store. It seems your taste is not very good. You can't even recognize them."
"You said these rubbish were from the department store. I go to department stores all the time, but I've never seen them before. Who are you trying to fool? You're such a dishonest girl, selling inferior goods as good ones."
Aunt Zhu looked incredulous when she heard this. How could this shabby place in the countryside have goods that are sold in a department store?
Xiangnan took out the receipt issued by the department store, which was stamped with the department store's official seal.
"Auntie, if you don't believe me, you can take a look. I'm honest in my business. The skirts in the department store are all imported from Guangzhou. They're expensive, but there's only one of each style.
Just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it’s not sold in department stores; it just means you’re not well-informed.
You can choose not to buy, but don't start by slandering other people's products. Do you know that defamation is a crime? If it affects my business, will you compensate me?"
Xiangnan hates people who are ignorant but pretend to be superior to her the most. What’s so great about being able to speak Mandarin?
He couldn't even tell whether it was from Guangzhou or from the department store. He had no idea about the goods, yet he still pretended in front of her.
Sorry, I won’t spoil you.
"Alright, alright, little girl, she just can't talk much and often offends people. Sister Tang has brought us here, so little girl, help us pick out a couple of outfits to try."
The other round-faced guy quickly tried to smooth things over and pulled his friend who was so angry that his face turned blue.
Aunt Tang smiled and said, "Sister Zhu Hua, Xiangnan is not an ignorant girl. Don't bully her just because she is from the countryside. Her goods are genuine and of high quality.
Xiangnan, don't bother with her. That's just her nature. She doesn't forget even the things she's suffered."
Xiangnan immediately smiled and said, "Aunt Tang, since you said so, what else can I care about? In business, harmony brings wealth. I am also a little impatient.
I will pick out one for each of them and give it to your two sisters who have changed so much."
Xiangnan naturally wouldn't care anymore. Aunt Tang was a customer and her God of Wealth. There was no need to offend the God of Wealth for an ignorant thing.
Xiangnan chose two cheongsams for the two aunts according to their body shapes and face shapes.
A black cheongsam is given to the aunt with a round face. Black can make you look thinner without showing a belly. The cheongsam collar is a stand-up collar, and white buttons are placed around the neck as an embellishment.
The sleeves are short and just reach the elbows. The cuffs and the hem of the skirt are decorated with a layer of white. Although it is dark, it is not dull at all.
Wearing it instantly enhances your temperament.
"Auntie, you need to trim your hair, can you do it?"
