Bai Yaotian stood by the door and looked outside, then said, "What do you want to eat? Let's go buy it."
"Dad, just buy something to make do with it. I'll treat you guys to a delicious meal in the evening." Bai Wei took out a handkerchief washed with cold water and wiped her cheeks.
There are fewer customers now, but we don’t know when they will come again, so we can only have a simple meal at noon.
Finally, Bai Yaotian and Shen Juan went out to buy lunch together. There were delicious臊子面 and fragrant rice, as well as various roadside snacks that Bai Wei liked to eat. In Shen Juan's words, she really wanted to move all the stalls back.
The family took turns having lunch, and before they had rested for long, after one o'clock, many customers slowly came in.
The streets outside are busy, and the shops inside are also busy.
It was busy until five or six in the afternoon, and the flow of people gradually decreased.
At seven o'clock in the evening, the customers in the store returned to normal, and a few people came in to shop every once in a while.
Bai Wei stood outside the door and looked in, ready to close the door in a moment.
Today is National Day, and everyone wants to go out and have fun.
Besides, today is so busy and everyone is tired after a day of work. Plus, business isn’t as good at night as during the day, so we might as well close the store early and let my parents go home and rest early.
Bai Wei went back and said, "Mom and Dad, you've been busy all day and you've worked hard. Why don't you go home early? Lu Siting and I will clean up the store and then we'll close it and go home."
"Weiwei, you can close the door at any time. You need to clean up, right? Then let's do it together. After we're done, we can go home earlier."
"That's fine, Mom, Dad, let's go find a restaurant to eat together later, so you don't have to cook when you go back."
Shen Juan and Bai Yaotian helped in the store all day, and now when they go out for dinner at night, Bai Wei will definitely pay.
There are so many people here today. If the four of them go out to eat, they might have to queue. It would be better for them to cook something at home.
Shen Juan quickly said, "No need, Weiwei, your dad and I will go back and make something to eat. If you don't want to cook, just eat outside."
In the end, the two left.
There were fewer and fewer people. After Bai Wei and Lu Siting cleaned the store, she sat at the counter and started to count the bills.
After adding and subtracting all these numbers, Bai Wei was stunned for a moment when she saw the final number.
Today, from eight in the morning to seven in the evening, her shop made forty-two dollars and thirty-five cents.
Although a small part of it is a deposit, Bai Wei is confident that she can finish the job in about two days.
The shop was closed at this time and it was still quite lively outside, so Bai Wei and Lu Siting ate outside and went shopping for a while before going home.
The store is now short of a lot of jewelry. Bai Wei had just come back from shopping and was so excited that she couldn't sleep, so she pulled Lu Siting to make jewelry.
After doing it several times, Lu Shiting became more familiar with it. He could make those simple accessories that did not require any skills by himself.
The two of them didn't go to bed until eleven o'clock in the evening.
The next day, Bai Wei and Lu Siting both got up very early.
When the two of them finished their meal and went to the store, Shen Juan and Bai Yaotian had just arrived.
There are not as many customers today as yesterday, but overall there are still quite a few. People started coming in after nine o'clock and have never stopped coming.
Lu Siting went out to buy lunch this afternoon and brought back a lot of delicious food.
At night, Bai Wei started to count the accounts before closing the store.
The difference with yesterday's turnover is not that big, it is exactly thirty-nine yuan and seventy cents.
That’s quite a few.
Bai Wei thought happily.
The National Day is a seven-day holiday, and as the holiday is coming to an end, there are not as many customers as at the beginning.
However, the daily turnover can be maintained at around 30 yuan.
Seeing that there were not many people around, Bai Wei asked her parents to rest at home. Bai Yaotian happened to be on vacation, so the two of them could go out for a walk.
Chen Juan said that she didn't want to go anywhere, and finally, just like before, she prepared meals for Bai Wei and the others at noon every day, helped out in the store during the busiest time in the afternoon, and went home before six o'clock.
National Day is finally over.
On the last day, there were not many people on the streets in the evening.
Bai Wei sat behind the counter and started to calculate the bill.
The warm-up activities started five days before the end of the month, which is when the daily turnover was decreasing.
Bai Wei added up all the money from the seven days of National Day and the four days at the end of last month and then divided it equally.
The daily turnover is more than twenty yuan.
It’s more than ten yuan more than usual.
Bai Wei happily shared the news with Lu Siting and received praise.
However, this event only lasted for several days, and there will probably be very few customers in the following period.
Next, Bai Wei spent another two days to finish making the jewelry that had been pre-ordered, and then she delivered the items to customers after they arrived.
The price of the pre-ordered goods is half of the total price. With the addition of scattered customers and customers who came from Bai Qiangwei with invoices, Bai Wei found that the daily turnover did not decrease much.
Counting the money in her hands, Bai Wei felt that her plan to become a wealthy woman had taken a big step forward.
That night, after returning home, Bai Wei went to discuss with Lu Siting: "The store has made some money, and I want to find a suitable location and buy a house."
Unexpectedly, Lu Siting didn't ask too much, didn't say anything else, and agreed directly.
"OK."
Lu Siting looked at Bai Wei and said, "I have no objection, but the money you have now should not be enough. You can calculate how much you need. If you are still short of some, I will pay for the rest."
Bai Wei was stunned by such eloquent words.
Bai Wei actually didn't know how much Lu Siting's exact salary was, but she estimated that it was just over a hundred yuan a month, or at most two hundred yuan. Even if it was two hundred, that would only be 1,200 yuan in half a year.
During this period, he paid for the family's groceries and water and electricity bills. He also drove a car, which cost a lot of gas. They occasionally went out to eat and go shopping, and it was all his money, including buying her small gifts.
When they got married, all expenses, from the wedding banquet to the betrothal gifts, were basically paid by Lu Siting alone, and he never asked the Lu family for money.
In his words, why should Lu Siting ask the Lu family to pay for his marriage? It's not like he can't afford it.
The betrothal gift was 1,888 yuan, plus the things to buy for the wedding and the banquet on the day, it would cost at least a little over 2,000 yuan.
They have only been married for half a year. How much money can Lu Siting save?
Can you still buy a house?
Bai Wei asked doubtfully, "Didn't you say before that the betrothal gifts were almost all your savings? After the wedding banquet, you have no money left."
