Chapter 46: I love the feeling of working so hard but not making any money
It seems that Lin Ranran still doesn't believe in evil.
Ye Ying smiled and shook her head, preparing to release the remaining chicken and continue eating her corn kernels!
But when she opened the carton, she found the chicken inside was twitching slightly and looked like it was dying.
No wonder it's so quiet!
It turns out that this chicken is...about to croak!
She picked up the chicken and examined it carefully, and found that its comb was purple. She then opened its beak and found some mucus on it, indicating that it had eaten something poisonous.
This chicken is definitely inedible.
No wonder Lin Ranran was still so unscrupulous in showing off the corn today. It seemed that he had already secretly cooked her chicken!
Staring at the chicken that was about to die, Ye Ying just couldn't swallow this anger!
She did not make this matter public. She quietly dealt with the dead chicken, then went to the gate of the compound and picked up the stray cat that often wandered on the roadside.
Soon, the stray cat ate all the salted fish that Lin Ranran had hung out to dry in the corner.
This stray cat is also very cute. After eating its fill, it didn't forget to give one to its companion.
Looking at the salted fish that had been bitten into pieces on the shelf, Ye Ying left with great satisfaction, her mouth almost grinning to her ears!
But when she thought of the chicken that was poisoned to death, she felt heartbroken!
A chicken is not cheap at this time, it's all hard cash.
From this perspective, isn't it what is meant by killing one thousand enemies but losing eight hundred of your own?
But at the moment it seems like she is the one who suffers the most.
In the afternoon, Ye Ying came back early after selling popsicles.
She looked around and found that the gnawed salted fish had been taken away and there was nothing left drying there.
It seems that this tactic is beginning to show results!
But the peanuts and corn remained untouched and were still drying in the same place.
Is Lin Ranran determined that she cannot touch her peanuts and corn kernels?
She really couldn't just catch a few mice to steal food, so she came up with a relatively unsound idea.
After waiting for the opportunity for several days, Ye Ying finally waited for a cloudy day without the sun.
For several days in a row, she quietly poured water on the peanuts and corn that Lin Ranran had hung out to dry on the ground, and then poured some vinegar on them.
Water it two or three times a day!
Not long after, Lin Ranran discovered that the peanuts and corn she had dried had turned moldy.
After that, Ye Ying didn't see anything drying in those places anymore.
And during this period, Lin Ranran did not come to cause trouble, which is really strange.
After all this hard work, Ye Ying's weight loss plan was finally put on the agenda.
She continued to lose weight while selling popsicles, and persisted for some time. By then, the doorman of Datian Ice Factory had become very familiar with her.
Although she did not bring cigarettes for the concierge every time she came, she would occasionally give him one or two popsicles to help him cool down after they came out of the factory in bulk.
So the grandfather would occasionally tell her some things, such as which areas were selling well, who would come to purchase goods every few days, and how much goods they would purchase each time.
The doorman would talk to her about gossip like this from time to time and give her some suggestions on where to set up the stall.
She went to the place the concierge told her to sell popsicles for a while, and the sales of popsicles did increase a lot.
But after struggling for a while, when I counted the money, I found that I didn't make much.
She really likes the feeling of working so hard but not making any money.
That night, Ye Ying couldn't sleep at all as she looked at the twenty-odd dollars in her pocket that she had worked so hard to earn.
This little money is not enough to support myself, let alone keep a gigolo.
She even wanted to lie down at one point. It was too difficult to earn such a small amount of money.
I don’t know what time it was when Ye Ying fell into a drowsy sleep.
In her dream, she dreamed that the scumbag He Tao became someone else's son-in-law with his new identity and was very proud of himself.
He easily owned a big house and a luxury car, while she worked hard for half her life, but still had mortgages and car loans that she could not pay off.
Finally, overwhelmed by the mortgage, she committed suicide by jumping into the river.
It was precisely because of this painful nightmare that after waking up, Ye Ying's lost fighting spirit miraculously returned.
How could that damned scumbag live better than her? She was unwilling to accept it!
This is the time when bigwigs are rushing into the industry to show off their talents. If she can catch up with this good time, she will definitely be able to get a piece of the pie, right? !
She just doesn't believe that making money in this era would be as hard as in the 21st century.
You definitely won't make much money just from the little profit from selling popsicles.
She has to become the middleman who "earns the difference"!
Ye Ying knew that it was very popular to be a traitor in the 1980s, and it even existed in the 21st century. It was just a different title.
So she decided to start with wholesale distribution, which is commonly known as a "second-hand merchant"!
Thinking of this, Ye Ying quickly got up and dressed. After finishing her exercise, she rode out on her 28-bar bicycle.
It is almost mid-August now, and popsicles can only be sold for a month at most. No one will eat them when the weather gets cold.
She had to hurry.
Ye Ying spent several days inspecting and visiting many small shops and department stores, at least fifty if not hundreds of them, and obtained the purchase price of popsicles in some of these stores through various means.
After getting their purchase price and average monthly sales volume, she once again found Manager Li of Datian Ice Factory.
Manager Li was particularly impressed by Ye Ying's appearance. When he saw her, he almost kicked her out.
"Manager Li, please don't rush to chase me away. I really have a big business to discuss with you this time!"
Manager Li curled his lips in disdain: "You are a rural woman, what big business can you talk to me about?"
Ye Ying secretly complained in her heart, but smiled: "Why don't you listen to what I have to say first?"
Manager Li rubbed his ear with his little finger and said impatiently, "Go ahead, I'm all ears. Let's see how big your business can be."
"What's the lowest purchase price you can give me? I have dozens of regular customers."
"Dozens of customers? What kind of customers?"
Manager Li still looked disdainful and didn't seem to be very interested in this.
“Of course there are department store owners.”
Ye Ying admitted that she had exaggerated, but if she didn't say so, she was afraid that Manager Li would not cooperate with her at all.
"Is it true?" Manager Li seemed to be interested and sat up straight from his slumped body in the chair.
"How do you want to cooperate?"
