"Sure, why not? Where do you want to set up your stall? What do you want to sell?"
In this life, my family moved to the city first. Under the current circumstances, the couple definitely can't follow her to do business like they did in the previous life. There is no place to live in the city. It would be nice if I could do some small business in my hometown first.
"Xiaobei and I have discussed the idea of collecting eggs from every household and selling them in the city. What do you think? During the two years I lived in the city, I knew that they were short of everything they could buy. At that time, I thought it would be great if we could take some of the food that we couldn't eat in the village to the city to sell. Now that we can sell it, I've got this idea back."
Ye Qing looked at her with appreciation, "That's great. If you collect a lot, you can go to state-owned restaurants, guesthouses, supply and marketing cooperatives and other places that consume a lot of eggs, talk to them and deliver the eggs to them every day. This will save you a lot of effort than selling them bit by bit by yourself.
After a while, everyone will know that you collect eggs, and you may not have to go to their homes to collect them, as they will deliver them to their homes.”
Xiang Chunling's eyes lit up. "Second sister-in-law, you are really smart. I didn't even dare to think about these things. I just thought it would be great if someone would buy it."
Ye Qing smiled and said, "It's okay. With this head, you can think about it in the future!"
Xiang Chunling raised her hand and called Wu Xiaobei, "Xiaobei, did you hear what our second sister-in-law said? Go collect the eggs tomorrow! Just do as our second sister-in-law said, and you will definitely make money!"
Wu Xiaobei grinned and nodded naively, "Okay, I'll go there early tomorrow morning!"
After listening for a while, Li Gui'e also became interested. She looked at Ye Qing a little embarrassedly and said, "Sister-in-law, can you help me and your elder brother to come up with some ideas? We also want to earn more."
When you don't have a son, you want to have one. After you have a son, the pressure increases. Nowadays, young people want the three major items when they get married. When your son grows up, he may want more. There is also the child's tuition. You will never be able to afford it in your lifetime relying on the few work points you earn throughout the year.
Ye Qing thought for a moment and said, "Don't you know how to make tofu? Why don't you make tofu and sell it?"
"Tofu? But we don't have many beans at home!"
She does know how to make tofu, and it tastes pretty good. During the Chinese New Year, the neighbors would ask her to make it, and they would give her a dollar as a reward for her hard work, so they wouldn't have to make it at home. But they didn't have much beans, so they couldn't make much.
Ye Qing smiled, "You are so smart, but sometimes you can't think straight. Can't you let people exchange beans for tofu? If you want to pay, give money. If you don't have money, use beans! If you sell in our village or commune, I think more people will exchange beans. If you take it to the county town, more people should pay. After all, people in the city don't farm, and they won't buy many beans even if they have money.
If we can grow bigger and produce a fixed amount every day, we can also negotiate cooperation with state-owned restaurants or factory canteens, so we don’t have to go door to door.”
"Oh, Qingqing, you are really my sister! You have seen a lot after staying in the city for a long time, and you have a very smart brain!"
Li Gui'e clapped her hands in excitement. If this business was successful, their family would no longer have to worry about money!
"In fact, the higher-ups allow us to do business on our own now. We can make money by selling anything, but some make big profits and some make small ones. We are just ordinary people and we don't want to be rich. We just hope that our children don't have to suffer the same hardships as us!"
Ye Qing said this to comfort them. She was definitely planning to take advantage of this favorable situation to get rich. When she returned this time, she planned to open a shop, and then think about doing something else to make money quickly.
"You're right. We work so hard just to give these kids a good life! Your eldest brother and I have already discussed it. As long as the four of them can continue their studies, we will support them no matter what we sell our belongings! If our family can produce a college student, I will be able to close my eyes in peace when I die!"
Ye Qing smiled and said, "What are you talking about? Xiaoru and the others are all smart kids. When they get into college, you and my brother will have to enjoy the good life. You can't die!"
Li Gui'e laughed, "Yes, yes, yes, I can't die, I still have to watch them get married and have children!"
After finally coming back, Ye Qing had to visit her parents' home. After having lunch at her husband's house, he and his wife packed their belongings and took their children back to her parents' home.
Ye Erzhu and his friends knew that their daughter and her family would come over in the afternoon, so they were waiting at home.
When the couple saw their five grandchildren, they hugged them in their arms and adored them for a long time and were reluctant to let go. They only let go because the children wanted to play with their uncle.
"You've lost weight again, and your eyes are dark!"
Wang Juan felt so distressed when she saw her daughter getting thinner and thinner.
Ye Qing smiled and comforted her, "It's okay, setting up a stall will definitely be a bit of a pain, I know that!"
Wang Juan raised her hand to tidy up her hair and asked, "Can you stay a few more days this time?"
"Well, we can stay for a week this time. Changlin has to go back to the city in the afternoon and has to go to work tomorrow. He can come and pick us up next time he is on vacation."
"Well, then don't cook for the next few days and bring the children to eat at home."
"OK."
Ye Qing agreed with a smile. It was not easy for him to come back, so he had to come over a few more times to spend time with his parents.
"Sister, Pingping and I have both been admitted to the county high school!" Ye Lan shared the good news with her sister excitedly.
"Great! I was thinking of asking you two, I almost forgot! If you go to the county to study in high school, you have to live in the school, right?"
Ye Lan smiled and nodded, "Well, I can only come back once a week."
Ye Qing gently touched their heads and said, "You two are the most promising ones in our family. Do you have the confidence to be admitted to university?"
Ye Lan shouted confidently, "Yes!"
Ye Ping was a little timid, "I'm not as good at studying as my third sister. I don't think I can pass the exam."
After saying this, the more I thought about it, the more useless I felt, and I actually started to cry.
Ye Qing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Why are you crying? If you can't pass the exam, then you can't pass it. Aren't high school students also very capable? You still have a bright future!
Besides, you haven't even started high school yet. A lot can change in two years. The fact that you can get into high school now means you have the potential to go to college. Don't be discouraged. I believe you can do it!"
Ye Lan also comforted her sister, "Big sister is right, your high school entrance exam results are not bad, and your college entrance exam results will definitely not be bad in the future. Third sister will help you. We will go to college together!"
Ye Ping wiped her tears and said worriedly, "If I fail the exam, won't the tuition fees for the past few years be wasted?"
