Xia Enruo visited the three newly opened stores, and their revenue on the first day of opening was phenomenal.
The total net profit from the four stores reached 18,090.78 yuan per day.
At this rate of return, the investment can be recouped in less than 3 days; it's like grabbing handfuls of money.
Xia Enruo led Gu Shaoxuan to deposit the day's earnings into the bank. The bank was surprised to see that the two young people had deposited nearly 20,000 yuan in one day.
All the bank staff came out to help count the money; it was quite a lively scene.
The people who came to conduct business were also seeing this scene for the first time, and they whispered among themselves, finding it unbelievable.
"My God, look at all that money on that table! I've never seen so much money in my life!"
"It looks like it costs tens of thousands. We only make a few dozen yuan a month. We could never earn that much money in our entire lives."
"And she's just a young girl, that's incredible. What does she do? Does she run a money printing factory?"
"Hey comrade, do you know what that girl does for a living? How did she accumulate so much money all of a sudden? Is she building houses?"
Some people couldn't resist asking the bank tellers.
The bank employee smiled and shook his head.
"I guess it's the God of Wealth descending to earth, but I don't know for sure."
Xia Enruo was naturally cautious and intelligent; she disliked being high-profile and preferred to keep a low profile.
These days, it's not the number of thieves that's scary, it's the thieves who have their eyes on you. Besides, now that I've opened a supermarket, it will definitely create competition for some people.
If word got out that he could earn that much in a day, he would make a lot of enemies, and then people would definitely cause trouble openly or secretly.
So when the bank staff asked about her job, she just smiled and said she was self-employed, without revealing a word about what she actually did.
Gu Shaoxuan protected Xia Enruo like a bodyguard.
She's heavily pregnant now, and she brought a sack of money with her, making her a prime target. This is too dangerous.
Although if Xia En were to carry money in a woven bag, people might mistake it for junk from the outside, but if this continued for a long time, word would inevitably get out.
If you get targeted by bad guys, it's really hard to guard against.
As the two left the bank, Gu Shaoxuan couldn't help but say something.
"Enruo, next time I'll borrow Yuan Qiang's car to take you to the bank to deposit money. That way it's both safe and convenient."
"Otherwise, no matter how well we cover it up, it won't stop people from spreading the word, and eventually everyone will know."
"Didn't you see? Just now at the bank, the people handling our business kept staring at us. I was really worried you might be in danger, okay?"
Xia Enruo knew that Gu Shaoxuan's concerns were valid, but borrowing Yuan Qiang's car once or twice a day to save money was fine, but doing it too often was just getting distorted.
"Shaoxuan, I know what you're worried about. I'm planning to buy a truck in a couple of days, firstly for the convenience of delivering vegetables, and secondly for saving money as insurance."
"Don't lend Yuan Qiang's car anymore, it's too much trouble for him every day. Besides, didn't you ask Lu Tuan for leave these past two days so you can stay home and keep me company?"
"With you by my side, what am I afraid of? At this rate of income, I can buy a truck in less than two days."
In the 1980s, the price of a small truck was between 10,000 and 15,000 yuan, while a larger domestically produced truck cost around 30,000 yuan.
At the rate my wife is making money, we can buy a car in less than a week.
"That plan will work! In any case, your safety must be the top priority. I will never let the kidnapping happen again."
Gu Shaoxuan gripped his wife's hand tightly. The kidnapping case was a nightmare he could never shake off for the rest of his life.

Zhang Baozhu and Wang Yue'e arrived in Yongning by train. The two first went to Yongning City Prison to visit their son, Zhang Guohong.
Zhang Guohong was bullied a lot in prison, where many of the other inmates were gangsters and street thugs.
He's used to fooling around on the streets, so it's certain that a pale-faced scholar like him would get beaten up if he went in.
Wang Yue'e felt terrible seeing the bruises all over Zhang Guohong's face.
"Son, what happened to your face?"
She wiped away her tears and asked.
Zhang Guohong dared not speak, and could only turn his face to the side and lower his head.
"Mom, I bumped into something while working in prison... It's nothing, it'll be fine in a couple of days."
“Son, hang in there for another five months. Your mom and dad will come to pick you up and take you home in person after five months.”
After listening to his mother's words, Zhang Guohong sniffed, his eyes filled with tears.
Zhang Baozhu took out the things he had brought and placed them on the table, then said:
"Guohong, your grandfather fainted as soon as he heard you were in jail. He's currently hospitalized in the county hospital, and the doctor said it will cost a lot of money to cure him."
"Your father and mother came to Yongning this time not only to see you, but also to ask Xia Enruo, that jinx, for money. She caused you to go to jail and lose your job."
"She caused your grandfather to fall ill and be hospitalized again. We have to get this debt back from her. Tell Mom and Dad where Xia Enruo lives and where she sells boxed lunches."
Upon hearing that his grandfather had been hospitalized, Zhang Guohong clenched his fists in anger.
I hadn't even recovered from the gloom of losing my studies and my job when I heard this devastating news.
Xia Enruo, you are truly cruel. Do you only feel happy when you see your family destroyed?
“Dad, I don’t know exactly where Xia Enruo lives. She’s probably selling boxed lunches at the entrance of the medical university every day at noon and in the evening. If you go to find her at those times, you’ll definitely catch her.”
Zhang Baozhu remembered the location and led his wife Wang Yue'e out of the prison. The two asked some passersby on the street for directions to the medical university, and then took a bus to the place.
Since it was afternoon, there were almost no stalls selling business near the school gate, except for two fruit stalls.
Zhang Baozhu was thirsty from the journey, so he asked Wang Yue'e to buy two oranges. The two of them sat on the curb and ate them while waiting for Xia Enruo to set up her stall that evening.
"Honey, when you block Xia Enruo, don't be soft-hearted. Speak loudly and try to get the students and vendors around to come over."
"No matter how arrogant Xia Enruo is, she can't afford to lose her temper in front of so many people. Since she's setting up a stall to do business, she's probably afraid of ruining her reputation, so maybe she'll just hold back and take out the money!"
Zhang Baozhu nodded after hearing what his wife said.
"I'll speak first. If I can't win the argument, then you can go up."
“This girl has changed. Didn’t you see how sharp her tongue was last time? She wouldn’t let a single word go unpunished.”
“This child’s personality has changed a lot. She’s not the little girl who used to be quiet and wouldn’t say a word when she was beaten or scolded.”
After hearing this, Wang Yue'e spat on the ground.
"Pah! No matter how she changes, she's still a bastard without parents. If her husband knew she had no parents and was adopted from an orphanage, wouldn't he also despise her?"
