After asking around, Qu Songsheng learned that there was a newly built commercial market in Lin City.
There, he found a store that specialized in selling Liberation shoes and rubber shoes.
The next day at noon, he returned to the riverbank carrying a large bag of shoes.
As soon as they spread out their shoes, they started shouting, "Liberation shoes, genuine 3544 Liberation shoes. Rubber sole and canvas upper, wear-resistant, waterproof, non-slip and comfortable to wear. Only three yuan a pair, one pair is worth ten pairs of cloth shoes."
"And there are rubber shoes, high-top rubber shoes, scratch-resistant and wear-resistant, you can wear them directly into the water. Only five dollars a pair, five dollars..."
The river workers had been working for more than a week, and many of their shoes had already rotted away.
When they saw suitable Liberation shoes and rubber shoes, they immediately swarmed over.
Although shoes that cost three or five dollars a pair are a bit expensive for them.
But the cloth shoes I made with thousand-layer soles would rot after a few days of soaking in water, especially in such a cold weather. They were still frozen in the morning, and no one could stand working with their feet soaked in muddy water and ice debris...
Gritting their teeth, they rushed to buy.
In less than two hours, the 100 pairs of Liberation shoes and 20 pairs of high-top rubber shoes that Qu Songsheng wholesaled were sold out.
Excluding the original cost of three hundred.
He made a net profit of 100 yuan on this trip.
Adding the money from selling meat soup and pancakes, the net profit for the day is one hundred and fifty.
That’s 150 yuan a day. If you keep going, you can earn more than 1,000 yuan in half a month.
So Qu Songsheng struck while the iron was hot and went to the city the next day to buy more shoes...
By the time other people in the village saw the business opportunity and started buying shoes in bulk, the river workers no longer had much demand for shoes.
Qu Songsheng then started selling socks and work gloves, and even found a tool manufacturer and got better shovels and spades...
The goods sold on the street stalls change every few days, and those who follow the trend don’t make as much as Qu Songsheng.
By the time the taste of the broth had been imitated by many people, many people knew how to make pancakes.
The food business began to decline.
While working as a wholesaler, Qu Songsheng actually learned how to make knife-cut noodles.
So the business of selling meat soup for 20 cents a bowl suddenly turned into selling beef sliced noodles for 30 cents a bowl.
As soon as it was launched, the stall was immediately surrounded by river workers...
While busy, the couple was watching over the street stall and running the snack stand at the same time.
Even though their mother-in-law, Yu, often came to help them take care of Qu Manman, the couple were often too busy.
"Brother Song, please collect the dishes. The table is full."
On this day, a worker hurriedly shouted to clear the table.
It just so happened that Qu Songsheng was cutting noodles and Lin Wanxia was collecting money and selling small commodities, and they were both too busy to handle it.
A thin figure took the initiative to help and quickly put all the used dirty dishes into the bucket.
Clean up the trash, wipe the table...
Seeing him, Qu Songsheng was surprised: "Chang Ke, why are you here? Isn't school already open? Why aren't you in school?"
Li Changke lowered his head shyly: "I, I don't have money to pay for tuition. Uncle, I will come to help you set up the stall in the future?"
Qu Songsheng looked at the young man's glint in his eyes and sighed softly: "Okay, you help first, I have something to tell you later."
When most of the things were sold out, there were few river workers coming.
Qu Songsheng served a large bowl of beef noodles.
He personally brought it to Li Changke and said, "Sit down and eat!"
"Um--"
Li Changke took the noodles and immediately sat down and started eating.
You can tell from the way he eats that he is indeed very hungry.
"Eat slowly, don't choke, there's more."
Qu Songsheng felt unhappy when he saw Li Changke eating voraciously.
No matter what happens in the future, Li Changke will always be Qu Manman's savior.
Qu Songsheng will remember this kindness for the rest of his life.
Li Changke is in trouble, he must help.
After Li Changke had eaten his fill, Qu Songsheng took out twenty yuan and stuffed it into his hand: "Use this to pay your tuition."
"No, uncle—"
Li Changke was shocked when he saw the money and subconsciously wanted to push it back.
"Take—"
Qu Song stuffed it into his hand and said, "Study hard. Uncle knows that you are a good student. You will definitely be able to study hard and make a name for yourself in the future."
"I?"
Li Changke lowered his head. He also hoped that he could make a name for himself.
He believed what Qu Yingying said about his future becoming rich and powerful.
But these days are so hard to bear.
God knows he couldn't afford the tuition, so he just audited classes for a while.
How embarrassing it is to be kicked out of the classroom!
In order to go to class, he could only bring multi-grain pancakes for lunch every day.
I could only grab a few grains of coarse salt for the side dishes and secretly take a bite when the classmates were not looking...
How painful it is to still not have enough to eat!
He couldn't help it, so he came to Qu Songsheng's stall to help.
He knew that Qu Songsheng was kind-hearted and would definitely treat him to noodles.
But unexpectedly, Qu Songsheng actually gave him twenty yuan.
Twenty dollars, that’s too much!
Fighting back the tears, Li Changke wanted to return part of the money: "Uncle Songsheng, this is too much. I only need nine dollars for tuition per semester, so I don't need so much."
Qu Songsheng: "Take it all, and pay the rest to the school cafeteria for food expenses. You are in the growth stage, so you should eat more."
"Uncle..."
"Good boy, you are Manman's savior. I will never forget you."
"If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me, don't be embarrassed..."
"Uncle, when I am able to do so in the future, I will definitely repay you."
Li Changke's thin shoulders trembled. He stood up, bowed solemnly, and made a promise.
