Chapter 87 Finding the Rhythm and Finding Yourself
This time, Shi Qingqing used more than 200 points to exchange for nearly 700 cash.
Because Sister Xu also plans to sell this drink, although for a small amount.
"That inconspicuous little shop sells snacks and laundry detergent from Luzon. The prices are more expensive than the big brands in the supermarket. I think the drinks and juices there are not as good as yours. There is a group of people waiting for the boss to get new goods."
Shi Qingqing still reminded him that these were the end-of-stock products from a big factory and could only be sold in a low-key manner, so he shouldn’t compete with such a store.
"I know, I know. I've thought about it. When the weather gets warmer, I'll mix it with some ice and say it's pure juice. As long as you don't put shady things in it, you can use a lot of tricks."
Seeing that Sister Xu was so savvy and could even conceal her own purchasing channels, Shi Qingqing felt that doing business with such a person was worth looking forward to the next transaction.
Just as I was about to leave, Sister Xu told me a message.
There was a person who drove a modified tricycle to carry passengers and went to her friend's brother's recycling station, which was a scrap recycling station a few dozen meters away, to sell a car.
For some unknown reason, the couple wanted to sell this passenger vehicle with an extra carriage.
Sister Xu felt that the human-powered tricycle was enough for her, so she had no plans to buy another one. After all, it would cost several hundred yuan.
Shi Qingqing listened to him. She just needed a car that was easy to drive.
So I followed Sister Xu to see the cars that had been purchased.
The front lights of this car were knocked off, and the handlebars are a little crooked, but it only costs a few dozen dollars to repair them.
She even tried riding it.
It is barely controllable, and the price can be higher after it is repaired.
But because Shi Qingqing came at the right time, and Sister Xu beside her helped to find faults with the car, she finally bought it for 600 yuan.
Shi Qingqing took the car to the town for repairs, and was told it would take two hours to get it back, so she thought she might as well go to her uncle's house since she was already there.
Just be careful to avoid those people. You are not a thief and you can't keep dodging like this all your life. If you really run into someone you don't want to see, then talk to them.
Shi Qingqing got some fruit and went to her uncle's house.
The uncle was very happy to see Shi Qingqing because he saw a spirit of energy.
This time, even Aunt Shi felt that Shi Qingqing was different, so her attitude naturally changed as well. She even diligently poured tea and washed some fruits and placed them in front of Shi Qingqing.
Afterwards, he asked Shi Qingqing if she had found a way to make money, and whether she could make money with her cousins, as they are all family.
Shi Qingqing was not embarrassed by Aunt Shi's words.
Because she has learned to adjust her emotions, and she tells herself that there is no need to care about or get angry with people like this.
When they were in trouble, they were afraid that she would come to their house for a meal. Even though she was not so poor that she had to beg for food at other people's homes, Aunt Shi would be on guard against her.
Now he confidently says there is an opportunity to make a fortune and asks her to lead him.
Shi Qingqing simply responded with words that were not what she meant. She said it was simple. With the 2,000 yuan start-up capital, she could start making money and she could earn back the capital in half a year.
Aunt Shi was too thick-skinned to say, "Why don't you help me with the explanation first?", so she just stayed with him with a fake smile.
From time to time, I looked at the shoes on Qingqing's feet, the clothes on her body, and her comfortable and relaxed expression without any trace of sadness.
She did have two thousand in her hand. After so many years of managing the family, she couldn't even take out two thousand. It would be better for her not to be a housekeeper. But that was emergency money, so she didn't dare to take it out as start-up capital.
But Shi Qingqing had made excuses for where her money came from, saying that she sold small commodities, eggs and rice, that she picked up bottles and cardboard in her spare time for a living, that her husband's salary came in and she pooled together 2,000 yuan to sell things at the market, and that every now and then she would go out on a boat and risk selling goods on the water.
According to Shi Qingqing's own fabrication, she now has a hand-cranked boat.
Hearing this, a stable monthly income of eight hundred, one thousand is very reasonable. This amount of money is enough for people with ordinary living expenses to live a stable life.
There are two people earning money in her family. If one thousand is added together, that’s two thousand, right?
After Shi Qingqing left, Aunt Shi finally responded. "How about letting our two children try it too?"
"Try? How? Are they willing to work hard and hold multiple jobs, to bear the pressure of life without a house or a car, or are they willing to lower themselves to pick up garbage and do business with strangers?"
However, Uncle Shi did not object to his wife telling the two children about Shi Qingqing's current changes. On the one hand, it can motivate the children that it is not a problem to start a career after getting married.
Secondly, there are some rumors about Qingqing and her husband that have not been eradicated. If the daughter-in-law tells the story of how Shi Qingqing works hard to earn money, it will somewhat dilute some of the rumors.
"Apart from that unreliable elder sister, who else would want to harm Qingqing with all kinds of messy rumors?" Even he, an old hard-working farmer, has heard this several times.
At first, there was talk of her receiving some man from Hong Kong, but it was obvious that the host was a woman!
She also said that she picked vegetables to eat and waited for him to deliver them to her. Later she found out that she was picking vegetables with her neighbor to feed the chickens.
"If rumors are a disaster, Qingqing is really suffering from many disasters." However, Uncle Shi feels that the people he has known and heard of since childhood seem to have better lives if they are surrounded by rumors.
Maybe this is an essential process for capable people to make their fortune?
After Shi Qingqing visited her uncle, she came out and bought a goose, two ducks and two chickens.
There was a lot of chirping noises in the bag along the way.
The car was almost repaired. I added a light for 78 dollars, and tightened the faucet and replaced it. Now it can be used.
Shi Qingqing drove the car away quickly. She was still a little unfamiliar with controlling the car, but there were basically no cars on the road outside the town, and the road was an asphalt road repaired a few years ago, so the car was relatively stable all the way.
The urea bags containing the chickens and ducks were pierced with several holes for ventilation, and the bag openings were tied tightly and tied to the truck.
More than an hour later.
Shi Qingqing drove back to the fishing village.
Guo Yumei was wandering on the side of the road. She went back and thought about it that day and found that her expression that day was really bad.
Shi Qingqing was responsible for all the polite words, basic communication, and even driving the boat.
She just stood there like a board, not helping at all.
Seeing Shi Qingqing at this moment, she was filled with thoughts of making amends.
Fortunately, in Guo Yumei's eyes, Shi Qingqing did not change her attitude. Instead, she trusted her and gave her the chicken and duck, asking her to pick one and slaughter it for the two of them to eat.
Upon hearing this, Guo Yumei happily killed the duck with the worst mental state and ate the beer duck made by Shi Qingqing.
"Is this what we do here? Cooking with beer?"
Shi Qingqing paused.
Could it be that the residual memory of that dream allowed her to instinctively cook dishes that she had never cooked as a girl?
"It's the same as braised dish, just replace the cooking wine with beer." Shi Qingqing then said perfunctorily.
After dinner, Shi Qingqing wanted to walk around the neighborhood, but there were three new creatures at home, so she decided to tidy up the temporary chicken coop that she had built before the New Year and decide not to go out to sea today.
With the rhythm of life back in her own hands, Shi Qingqing had more free time to pay attention to more trivial matters. After checking the things at home again and replenishing them, she sent a message to Zhao Fengnian, saying that she would go to see him the day after tomorrow morning.
Zhao Fengnian called back more than half an hour later.
Shi Qingqing immediately ran to the store and called him.
"Hello?"
