Chapter 57 Actually, Liu Zhaodi wanted to say that she was...
In their small town, Warrior's sneakers were the best. They were even the most expensive shoes in Qin Yang's shop, more expensive than adults' leather shoes.
"That's better!" Hearing Chen Pan say this, Qin Yang smiled with satisfaction, and then quickly found shoes for Chen Pan.
In this era, a pair of Warrior sneakers costs about 30 yuan. Of course, if you buy them in a big shopping mall, they will definitely cost 40 or 50 yuan.
But here, the lowest price for these shoes is thirty yuan.
Of course, this so-called lowest price is also the lowest price that merchants tell customers.
Anyone who has done business knows that the wholesale price and the lowest price are definitely different.
Anyway, at this moment, Chen Pan took advantage of Qin Yang's family again.
And she still felt very comfortable taking advantage of this.
A few minutes later, when Chen Pan returned to her store next door carrying a pile of shopping bags, Grandma Chen and Grandpa Chen were both surprised to see the things she brought.
"I thought you were just buying a few small gadgets, why did you buy so many!!" Grandpa Chen couldn't believe it.
"Hey kid, we just bought some clothes and pants not long ago, you don't need to buy any more. And you bought too many school bags!!"
Seeing her carrying a plastic bag of clothes and a very obvious shoe box, Grandma Chen also shouted loudly.
"Among these clothes and pants, there's a set I bought for Second Grandma. Among the shoes, there's a pair of sneakers I bought for myself, and there's one of my schoolbags. The rest are gifts I gave to Aunt Xiufen and Aunt Yang. Get rid of all these things, and what's left is for you."
He put down everything in his hands with a happy look on his face, and then Chen Pan talked about them one by one and started to distribute them.
After knowing that Chen Pan was going to give gifts to her second sister-in-law who had helped her recently, the Yang family next door, and Yang Xiaomei's mother, Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen had complicated feelings.
They wanted to tell Chen Pan not to bother with all this.
They thought that the high salary she had given them before was more than enough.
But through all the previous incidents, they have actually seen that their granddaughter Chen Pan is much better than them in doing business.
Because they were afraid of affecting her business and arrangements, Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen tacitly agreed not to say anything about giving gifts to others.
But when they saw the clothes and shoes their granddaughter bought for them, they were very dissatisfied.
"Panpan, how about we return some of these things?"
"Yes, Chinese New Year is coming soon, it's not appropriate to buy autumn clothes now!"
Looking at the clothes and pants packed in the exquisite handbags and the leather shoes that looked very expensive, Grandma Chen and Grandpa Chen walked one after the other.
"I won't return them. If you want to return them, go do it yourself. By the way, Grandpa, your Mao suit, and Grandma, your plaid jacket, are both fifteen yuan each. Your trousers and leather shoes are each ten yuan. If you really don't like them, you can go next door and return them."
After casually quoting a price, Chen Pan picked up his own things and the gifts he was going to give and walked inside.
"What? A Zhongshan suit is only fifteen yuan?"
"No way? How can the neighbors make money like this?"
Upon hearing Chen Pan's words, Grandpa Chen, who was familiar with the prices of Zhongshan suits, jumped up immediately, and Grandma Chen, who had been pulling out those clothes and pants, also had a look of disbelief on her face.
"He gave it to me at the cheapest price possible, saying it was to thank me for suggesting he go to the market. Grandpa knows this. Anyway, that's it. I'm going back to rest. It's up to you whether you want to return the items or not."
Chen Pan, who was familiar with their personalities, immediately put on an impatient look and carried his things back to his cabin.
After putting the things away, she immediately took the 120 yuan and went out the back door. Then, she walked around from the main gate of the Qin family to the front door of the Qin family shop and handed the 120 yuan to the other party very lightly.
After paying the money, Chen Pan turned another corner, entered the Qin family's main gate again, and then went back through the back door of his own shop.
“…”
Qin Yang looked through the two windows in front and back of his house and watched Chen Pan sneak over and sneak back.
Looking at her figure, Qin Yang wanted to say that she could actually come in through the back door of his shop to give him money.
But looking at Chen Pan who had quietly returned, Qin Yang said nothing in the end.
Chen Pan bought clothes and shoes for her grandparents, but they never returned them.
Chen Pan, who had money and her own considerations, gave the gifts to everyone on the 25th, their last day of work.
"Aunt Yang, give these two schoolbags to Xiaofang and your Xiaokang. I gave Meimei's before, so I didn't buy one this time!"
"Aunt Xiufen, these are for Dongdong and Juanjuan. The style is exactly the same as Aunt Yang's, and the colors are exactly the same, red for the girl and blue for the boy."
"Third Grandma, since you don't have any children at home, I took the initiative to get you a set of clothes. Do you like it?"
As soon as everyone arrived in the morning, Chen Pan immediately took out all the gifts he had prepared and gave them to them one by one.
"You kid, why did you buy so much for me? Do your grandparents know? Did you buy it for them?"
Liu Zhaodi, the oldest, was the first to react after receiving the things from Chen Pan. She spoke excitedly, her hands holding the clothes and pants trembling slightly.
She had been married to Grandpa Chen Pan for over thirty years, and aside from the two nice sets of clothes she had when they first got married, she hadn't bought any new clothes in years, all the while trying to find wives for her two sons and pay off the family's massive debts. Even the outfit she was wearing now was secretly bought for her by her mother, who couldn't bear to see her wearing it, when she visited her parents' home on June 6th two years ago. She meticulously washed even this one set of clothes, because strictly speaking, it was the only unpatched piece of clothing she owned.
Holding tightly the clothes and pants given by her cousin Chen Pan, Liu Zhaodi's hands couldn't help but tremble slightly at this moment.
"Yes, Panpan, why are you still sending us things? Your brother Dongdong and sister Juanjuan both have schoolbags!"
As soon as Chen Pan's second wife spoke, Chen Xiufen reacted and immediately raised her voice in embarrassment.
"Yes, my Fangfang and Xiaokang also have schoolbags. You are so polite, Panpan!" Yang Xiaofang, who was standing next to Fang Qinghua, was already very happy, but Fang Qinghua was still subconsciously polite.
"It's okay. This is all my thanks to everyone. Third Grandma is my dear Third Grandma. I often receive insoles and shoes made by you. This little thing is nothing. The two aunts, Aunt Xiufen, often helps our family. Now she helps us take care of our little black boy. These two schoolbags are what we deserve.
As for Aunt Yang, Xiaomei and Fangfang have been very helpful to me in my small business this time. You also helped me with the accounting later on, which is all due. Anyway, I am very grateful for everyone's help. In addition, I have made money thanks to you, so naturally I have to repay you a little bit.
The more gifts you give, the less blame you will get. These things are worth less than 20 yuan to each person.
Anyway, at this moment, Chen Pan showed great maturity and put a perfect end to their last day of work.
They didn't bring much that day, and almost everything was sold out by 1:30 in the afternoon.
Even if it was only half a day, Chen Pan gave everyone a day's salary.
After bringing everyone to the food street at the North City Farmers' Market, Chen Pan even took the initiative to treat everyone to a hot pot restaurant that they rarely went to, and had a good meal with everyone.
To be honest, neither Chen Pan's second grandmother nor Yang Xiaomei's mother had ever been to a store like this before. Even though this store was located in a farmers' market that they were familiar with, they had never actually walked in.
Even Liu Xiufen, who had been to the big hotel once or twice before, looked at Chen Pan with a different look at this moment.
If she is like this, what about Yang Xiaomei who grew up with her?
"Panpan, how come you've become completely different in just half a year?"
She felt that her good friend was frighteningly mature, and she also didn't like the materialistic side of things. Yang Xiaomei, who had just learned the word "materialistic", couldn't help but suddenly say it when they went to the bathroom of a hot pot restaurant together.
"I've been helping my grandfather run a bakery for the past six months, so naturally things have changed. Okay, stop imagining it and go back quickly. Oh, and hide your money. Don't give it all to your parents!"
He raised his hand and touched the other person's head, then Chen Pan pulled the other person back.
"Yeah, I get it. My sister and I hid our money very carefully and didn't give it all to them!"
Yang Xiaomei's expression relaxed unconsciously when she mentioned money, realizing that the things they had just ordered would cost at most twenty yuan. She and her sister each had over two thousand yuan, and the friends around them should all have three or four thousand yuan.
Knowing that this twenty-yuan lunch was nothing to the other party, Yang Xiaomei, who had two pigtails today, stopped worrying about it.
After lunch, Chen Pan took everyone out and bought each of them a cup of sour plum soup for 20 cents. Then, their month-long money-making journey came to an end.
When everyone bought things later, Chen Pan did not rush to the rich man again.
After everyone had bought some things, Chen Pan escorted them to the bus back to the village from the Chengbei Bus Station. She then quickly parted ways with the others, using the excuse of having an appointment. This time, she didn't make any more noises and stayed with everyone until the bus left.
As she walked away, Chen Xiufen, who had been watching her, couldn't help but say again, "This child is really sensible and knows how to behave!"
Being sensible and having good manners may sometimes be used in a derogatory manner, but at this moment Chen Xiufen was really praising Chen Pan.
"This child has been sensible since she was young."
Second Grandma Yang was the least surprised by Chen Pan's maturity and understanding. Knowing that the car would not leave for a while, she unconsciously talked about how Chen Pan had known how to herd cattle for the family since he was a child, and on the side he would dig and peel herbs outside and sell them for money.
In fact, almost all rural children do these things.
For example, Yang Xiaomei and Yang Xiaofang both had experience in helping their families herd cattle. As for getting herbs to pay back their debts, they had done that not long ago.
"No, you guys are a family with only one cow and a few sheep. Even if you help out, it's only occasionally, not all winter and summer vacations, right? But Panpan, as long as it's winter and summer vacation, she will help out the entire holiday. She has a cow and more than a dozen sheep at home. An adult may not be able to do this kind of work every day. But as long as her family doesn't let her stop, she will keep going.
Two years ago, her grandfather broke his leg in an accident, and during that holiday, she was the only one who came to herd the cattle and sheep. Later, during the autumn harvest, she even used the cart and worked with my brother and sister-in-law to haul all the wheat and rapeseed from the fields. My brother and sister-in-law explained that she was in charge of pushing the cart from the back, while Panpan drove the cattle.
Anyway, ever since that incident, I knew this child was something special. At twelve or thirteen, how many people could drive a loaded oxcart down from a mountain as high as ours? How many people have the guts and courage to do that? Even my two sons wouldn't dare drive a cart down there!"
Liu Zhaodi actually wanted to say that she felt very sorry for the child at the time, forced to do men's work at her home at such a young age. So when she later made shoe insoles, she subconsciously made one for him as well. And so every time he came to her house, she couldn't help but give him some of the goodies at home.
But such words are obviously not appropriate to say now.
So now, Liu Zhaodi, who was carrying two shopping bags and some fruit snacks, could only say this.
"Yes, I also heard that it was she who proposed opening this pancake shop. She also handled all the lease contracts and all the subsequent procedures."
Liu Xiufen, who had recently earned over 300 yuan, unexpectedly received two new school bags today, and even had a good meal, immediately told the rest of the things she knew, and looked at the Yang family's second grandmother beside her as if to verify it.
Liu Zhaodi understood her look and nodded hesitantly: "That's indeed the case—"
Second grandma was particularly happy today and couldn't help but say a few more words.
Yang Xiaomei and Yang Xiaofang listened in disbelief. It was clear that they had never known anything about Chen Pan's actions before. Hearing everyone talk about this today, they were both excited and incredulous.
Listening to their words, Fang Qinghua, who had always wanted to start his own business and change his destiny, became more and more excited, and his heartbeat became faster and faster.
Of course, others didn't know or see the excitement and excitement in her heart at that moment.
He tightly grasped the two packed red and blue backpacks and stared at Grandma Yang's mouth as she kept talking.
No one knew that at this moment, her desire to start her own business, make money and change her destiny had reached its peak.
