Yu Li slapped him lightly and whispered, "Who acts like they won't let someone leave until they do something for them? Dad wouldn't hurt us. Let's see what Sister Huai Ru says later. If Dad doesn't mention it, I'll find an excuse to go to the department store with her and sound her out."
Upon hearing this, Yan Jiecheng suddenly realized, "Yes, I was a bit too hasty. I was wrong."
"Don't rush." Yu Li squeezed her husband's hand.
She knew that her own little family was having a hard time, mainly because the factory's profits were getting worse and worse.
The steel rolling mill is doing alright, but the textile mill is getting worse every day.
So the couple started thinking about whether they could find some small jobs that could earn them money.
The two of them were truly broke; otherwise, they wouldn't have come to Yan Bugui to borrow money to set up a small stall.
Upon entering the room and seeing the hot dishes on the table, Yan Jie was stunned.
He felt that the world was too crazy, and that old miser was really gone?
He even dares to eat meat dishes now!
Yu Li was also shocked; when she married into the family, the food was never like this.
Qin Huairu, on the other hand, remained calm. This thing was a level below Qin Family Village. It was clear that although Yan Bugui was provoked, he had not lost his mind.
Well, in layman's terms, he's still very stingy.
After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Yan Bugui naturally steered the conversation toward Yan Jiecheng.
“Huai Ru, look, we’ve been neighbors in the same courtyard for a long time. If you want to blame me for not being capable enough, life has really not been easy for me…”
He was aware of Yan Jiecheng's current situation.
To put it simply, if we lived a miserable life like before, we could manage.
However, he has a health problem, probably due to severe hunger in his childhood, which makes it difficult for him to conceive now. It can be cured, but the couple will need to spend money on treatment, which means they don't have much money.
Yan Bugui was unaware of this, but he was well aware that the couple's life was not going well.
So, I have to bring this up, even if it means swallowing my pride.
"That's simple." Qin Huairu nodded: "There are quite a few ways to make money. It just depends on which method you plan to use."
Qin Huairu wasn't picky about who she sold things to; she didn't care who she sold them to.
"Then, Sister Qin, is there anything we can do together?" Yu Li asked.
"It depends on what you plan to do. There are a few options. The first is to do what the people in our village do: get the goods from the village and sell them in the city. This route is quite stable, but the profit is not high. You might only make a few dozen yuan a month, depending on whether you can sell them or not. If you're lucky, you could probably make a little over a hundred yuan a month. However, you might not be able to continue working in the factory."
"A few dozen yuan?" Yan Jiecheng asked with some doubt, "Then..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Li stopped him.
Yu Li rolled her eyes at him and continued, "Then, Sister Qin, besides the first one, what else?"
"The second option is to get the goods from us, set up a small stall in the city, and our village will tell you how to do it. In Shouren's words, this is considered deep processing, directly setting up a small stall to sell snacks. If you do this job well... well, to be honest, we haven't started yet, but the profit should not be low." Qin Huairu pondered for a moment, but ultimately did not say how much money they could make.
But Wang Shouren said that this thing is probably very profitable, so it must be very profitable.
"If you choose the second option, it might be more tiring. In any case, I suggest that one of you go out and do some work. Factory wages aren't very high these days, and prices outside have risen quite a bit."
“Indeed.” Yan Bugui nodded in deep agreement. Although the price increase was not exaggerated, it was still quite significant compared to the stable years.
"But anyway, I still have to thank you, Huairu, for giving us this opportunity. Let's discuss it and give you an answer later. Also, Jiecheng and Yuli need to take care of their work at the factory."
"good!"
After a satisfying meal, Qin Huairu took her leave.
As soon as Qin Huairu left, Yan Jiecheng spoke up: "Dad, your salary is so much, how come mine is so little, just a few dozen yuan a month, this..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Li interrupted him: "Come on, Dad has his own abilities, what abilities do you have? All you know is how to eat!"
Yan Jiecheng: ...
Yan Bugui laughed, poured himself a small glass of wine, took a sip, his features scrunched up, then suddenly relaxed: "Ah~ this wine, it has to be undiluted, that's how you drink it!"
"Dad, you..."
"What do you mean, 'you'?" Yan Bugui glared at him. "How can you be the same as me? Do you know which alleys around here have a lot of people and which have few? Do you know where the families who are willing to spend a lot of money on eggs are concentrated? Do you know how to sell things quickly? You don't know anything. From childhood to adulthood, all you've ever known is how to focus on the few cents in your pocket."
Everyone knows Yan Bugui is stingy, but he's not the kind of stingy that's repulsive. He takes advantage of small things, but he also says nice things. In today's terms, he practices the theory of sustainable development. He doesn't take advantage all at once; he does it in batches, and each time he does, he gives the other party corresponding emotional value.
Therefore, he got along quite well with his neighbors.
Yan Jiecheng is no good. He's far inferior to his father, only knowing how to focus on what's in front of him and completely disregarding any subsequent developments.
"This is your decision. Whether you plan to sell vegetables, set up a small stall, or not participate at all, this old man won't interfere." Yan Bugui waved his hand, then paused and said, "If you really care, go to Qin Family Village and see what the situation is like there. Also, ask Qin Huairu if her attitude is the same as it is today. If so, you don't need to go."
Yan Bugui was also somewhat helpless; this Yan Jiecheng didn't learn anything good at all.
You come in asking for a high-paying job right away, what's wrong with you? Does Qin Huairu owe you something?
Yan Bugui had seen this kind of thing many times before, so he figured it was best to let him run into a wall.
Yan Jiecheng wanted to say something more, but Yu Li pulled him away from the side.
"Dad, we understand. Let's go home and discuss it." Yu Li pulled Yan Jiecheng away without looking back.
"Dad, why don't you help the child?"
