Wen Zhichao was quite surprised that his wife had earned a few more yuan with just one trick. He had assumed the soy milk was just a bonus. Back home, you needed sugar coupons to buy sugar at the supply and marketing cooperative, but here, you could buy it at state-owned stores with cash, and it was cheaper. Even at its cheapest, it was still an expensive commodity. Wen Zhichao was prepared; just recouping the cost of the soy milk was a good thing.
Now the soy milk can barely make back the cost, but it has driven other sales, just like its own posters, which look like extras but can actually boost the sales of tapes.
Wen Zhichao figured out these principles after working in business for some time. He didn't expect that his young wife would also use this method unintentionally.
"You are so nice!" Wen Zhichao said from the bottom of his heart.
Xia Ruzheng said proudly: "Of course, I can fly as high as you give me. Just wait and see!"
In the past two days, Xia Ruzheng has felt the freedom and mental strength she has never felt in her two lifetimes. She feels that she still has a very long future ahead of her.
Wen Zhichao looked at her face, which was full of life and vigor, and felt that this woman was worthy of being held in his hands and pampered.
"Of course I won't just watch. We two must be together, no matter where we are." Wen Zhichao said very seriously.
Xia Ruzheng's heart suddenly twitched, and a sour and sweet feeling surged from the bottom of her heart, running through her limbs like an electric current, making her unable to help but tremble slightly.
"Yes, together. We must truly be husband and wife, and never be apart wherever we go!"
Initially, Xia Ruzheng only wanted to escape Huang Zhong; she was willing to live any life. She had never imagined that she would meet such a person, gain such a relationship, and have a close lover who was willing to let her fly and fly with her.
"Also, a wife follows her husband. I will support you no matter what you want to do or what you are happy to do." Wen Zhichao said seriously.
Xia Ruzheng was extremely moved.
Not to mention the tenderness and sweetness of that night, the next day, they still went about their business.
After a few days, Xia Ruzheng's business gradually stabilized. Just as Xia Ruzheng had anticipated, some lazy housewives began sending their children and husbands to buy breakfast from Xia Ruzheng in the mornings. Some families, whose elderly parents cooked breakfast, felt sorry for them and asked them to skip the early morning rush and buy food themselves. Besides these, he also had a few regular customers.
Xia Ruzheng was good-looking, dressed neatly, and would greet familiar faces from afar. She was eloquent and articulate, and everyone loved her. Furthermore, Xia Ruzheng knew how to take advantage of others. She'd order more of whatever dish someone liked, filling the wraps with puffed filling, slathering the pancakes with sauce, and even adding a large egg. If you bought all three, she'd give you a free bowl of soy milk.
In any case, even if others are still used to eating breakfast at home, they have heard of the good reputation of Xia Ruzheng's breakfast stall. It is clean, affordable and comfortable to eat.
Doing business is indeed a good way to get to know people. After about ten days, Xia Ruzheng had a rough idea of who lived where in the neighborhood and who lived there. This can be considered a talent.
In the evening, the two of them were counting money at home again, but it was Xia Ruzheng who was counting, and Wen Zhichao was watching from the side, not looking at the money, but at his beautiful young wife.
"Ah! We've earned one hundred and thirty-six dollars and eighty-five cents in the past ten days! Comrade Wen Zhichao, we've had a great harvest!"
If they can earn this much in about ten days, then the couple can earn three hundred yuan a month, which is much more than the monthly salary of an ordinary worker!
Wen Zhichao then discovered Xia Ruzheng's true nature as a money-grubber. The Xia family wasn't short of money, and Xia Chunfu was kind to them. He was a natural money-grubber, no matter what kind of family he was born into.
Xia Ruzheng's eyes sparkled as he said, "We earned this ourselves, it wasn't given by my father!"
Wen Zhichao finally understood why Xia Ruzheng was so excited. Earning money with one's own hands was truly thrilling, especially when it was quite a bit. When he first earned his first pot of gold, it was much harder and less than what he was making now. He was equally excited, as if he had finally found a way out of his gloomy life.
Xia Ruzheng is different from herself, but she is also suffering in her heart, and it is not enough for others to comfort her. Now she is just like herself back then, and she has finally found a way out in life.
Unexpectedly, the two people's exits were the same.
Wen Zhichao felt even more that this was a fate given by heaven, and that the two of them were made for each other!
Xia Ruzheng held the money box in his arms and lay in Wen Zhichao's arms, imagining the future: "When we save enough money, we'll buy a house. I want one with a storefront and open a small restaurant. We'll live in the back. If you want, we can also open a store and sell tapes. You can also put a tape recorder in the store, right at the door, and play whoever's tape is good. Then people will know that you sell tapes here, and they will buy your tapes if they like!"
In later times, shops always played music at the entrance to attract people's attention. People in later times were numb to it, but for this era, it was still fresh.
Wen Zhichao hugged Xia Ruzheng and said, "I don't plan to open a shop for this. If I did, I wouldn't do this. But your idea is very good."
Xia Ruzheng said, "You're right. When cassette tapes become unpopular, you won't be able to make money. And selling cassette tapes isn't going to be a big business. But you can open a store and ask others for help. Running a store doesn't take much energy. You'll also be able to free up your time to do what you want to do."
