Chapter 359
Zhong Lan and Cui Li were both surprised, and then hesitated.
"Can we... do it?" Zhong Lan said.
Cui Li asked, "Won't we get caught if we set up a stall now?"
"It's not bad, but we still need to be more careful." Ye Fuyue said, "While there are fewer people setting up stalls now, we can seize the opportunity and make money first. Later, when more and more people come to their senses and set up stalls, it will be harder to make money."
Zhong Lan and Cui Li were still pondering.
The two had never thought of such a way to make money before. More importantly, the words "speculation and profiteering" were deeply imprinted in everyone's mind, making people fear from the bottom of their hearts and difficult to break free from the shackles of these four words.
"Isn't this really considered speculation?" Zhong Lan asked.
"The country is encouraging individual businesses, so it doesn't count as speculation." Ye Fuyue said affirmatively.
Zhong Lan and Cui Li were still uneasy.
Cui Li asked, "Even if it's not speculation, if we sell what we make, will anyone buy it?"
"I've already told you that what you make is much more delicious than what's sold at the street vendors outside. There will definitely be people who will buy it," said Ye Fuyue.
Zhong Lan said: "Even so, doing business requires capital. I don't have much money on hand, not enough to do business."
Cui Li nodded in agreement.
If Zhong Lan had some money, then she had no money at all.
Ye Fuyue was waiting for them to say this. She smiled and said, "I have money. I'll invest in you and give you the start-up capital. When the time comes, the profits will be divided among the three of us."
Zhong Lan and Cui Li were both surprised.
Cui Li asked, "Do you want to join us?"
Ye Fuyue shook her head. "To be precise, I'm just investing in you and giving you money as start-up capital. We can discuss what kind of food to sell, and I can sell it with you, but making the food still depends on you two. After all, I still have to go to school, and I have to go to Xiangyang Furniture Factory from time to time, so my energy is limited."
"That's fine! We'll feel more at ease knowing you're with us," Cui Li said.
Zhong Lan also smiled and nodded.
Just the two of them, they really have no confidence at all, they have never done anything similar before, nor have they done anything extraordinary. If Ye Fuyue is with them, they will be much more confident.
After all, Ye Fuyue is a college student and is much more knowledgeable than them. Moreover, Ye Fuyue is also designing furniture for Xiangyang Furniture Factory. She is very capable and has both insights and foresight.
"You guys go back and think about it first. Once you've thought it over and decided to do it, we can discuss what to do next." Ye Fuyue said.
Zhong Lan and Cui Li both nodded.
Both of them were very excited when they left the Shen family.
Cui Li asked Zhong Lan, "What do you want to do with Fu Yue?"
Zhong Lan nodded without hesitation: "Yes. What about you?"
"I want to, too." Cui Li said, "But should we tell our family about setting up a stall outside?"
After a moment's hesitation, Zhong Lan said, "I should tell you, but my family will definitely not agree."
"I think so too," Cui Li said. "They wish I could stay home all day, take care of the kids, and take care of their lives."
"My family is the same." Zhong Lan smiled bitterly.
"But I feel like this kind of life is really boring," Cui Li said. "Especially since the Liang family treats Liang Tianxiong like a treasure and gives in to him in everything. I originally thought that with Laibao, my life would be much better. But in reality, my life hasn't changed much. I wonder, if I follow Fu Yue and make money, then can I live the life I want?"
Zhong Lan was also thinking about this question and didn't speak for a long time.
After Zhong Lan and Cui Li left, Chen Guifeng asked Ye Fuyue, "Do you really want to do business with them?"
"Well, I've thought it through and decided what kind of business I want to start with." Ye Fuyue said.
"But isn't this really speculation?" Chen Guifeng said worriedly.
"Now that the policy is open, it's not considered speculation. We're not opening a shop, we're just hawking our wares from door to door, so it's not a big problem." Ye Fuyue said.
"Will it affect your and Shen Yao's work?" Chen Guifeng was still very worried.
"No." Ye Fuyue said, "If it really has an impact, we will quit." She added.
Chen Guifeng was unsure about this matter: "You discuss it with Shen Yao. If he has no objection, then you can do it."
"Yeah." Ye Fuyue nodded.
That night, Ye Fuyue told Shen Yao about this.
"You just invest money, but don't make things to sell yourself?" Shen Yao asked.
"Yes." Ye Fuyue nodded: "I don't have that much time to cook for myself."
"I'm just worried that if you still have to make and sell it yourself, it will be too hard for you." Shen Yao said: "Recently, there have been more people setting up stalls on the street. If you want to do it, just do it. Don't worry."
"Mom is just worried that it will affect your work and mine, as well as my school." Ye Fuyue said.
"She's old and loves to worry about all kinds of things. You can try it first. If there are really any bad effects, don't do it for the time being." Shen Yao said.
Ye Fuyue smiled brightly: "I think so too."
A day later, Zhong Lan and Cui Li came to see Ye Fuyue again.
"Have you thought about it?" Ye Fuyue said with a smile as she looked at the two of them.
Zhong Lan and Cui Li both nodded firmly.
"Have you told your family about this?" Ye Fuyue asked.
Zhong Lan and Cui Li exchanged a glance, and Cui Li spoke first: "I didn't say it explicitly, but I asked Liang Nan. I asked him what would happen if I went out to set up a stall to sell things. Liang Nan laughed at me and said that with my craftsmanship, no one would buy what I made, and told me to stop messing around. So I didn't say anything."
Zhong Lan nodded and said, "It's pretty much the same here. I asked Yao Hong if I could set up a stall to earn some extra money. Yao Hong told me to stop, saying I wasn't busy enough with things at home. He also said that if I felt I wasn't busy enough, I should take better care of his mother. He also said that setting up a stall was speculation and if I were caught, he wouldn't know what would happen to me, but if he lost his job because of me, the whole family would be left with nothing. I didn't tell him that I had decided to set up a stall."
"Okay, once you've thought it through, let's get started." Ye Fuyue said, "But do you want to keep this a secret from your family first?"
Zhong Lan and Cui Li both nodded.
Cui Li said, "We want to try out what we can do first. It would be best if we don't let our family know."
"Okay." Ye Fuyue explained, "I originally wanted you to sell breakfast first. But if we don't want our families to know, we can only sell in the morning and afternoon. If we sell in the morning and afternoon, we can sell the mung bean cakes and mung bean soup you made earlier. I'll pay for the ingredients, and after we make money, we'll split the profits: 40% for me and 30% each for you two. Is that okay?"
