When they arrived at Building 3 again, Xu Manman had learned her lesson and asked Xiao Jin to turn on the lights in the room first.
The house was brightly lit, and from the outside, one could seem to see the former prosperity of the house, which was much more pleasing to the eye than the dead appearance of Building No. 5, which looked like a haunted house at first.
The yard here is not as big as the No. 5 yard, but the area of the main building is about the same. There is also an auxiliary building covering an area of more than 200 square meters behind the main building, which used to be where the servants lived.
The style of the house here is different from that of Building No. 5. If that one is a combination of Chinese and Western styles, then this one is pure Western Baroque style. Compared with Building No. 5, there are more rooms here. Xu Manman does not plan to live in it herself. She can use it to run a club or hotel B&B in the future, but that is all in the future.
"The main structure of Building No. 3 should not be changed. The sewerage and various pipes need to be rearranged. As for the rest, they can be renovated on the original basis." Party A put forward the demand.
Party B immediately responded, "Okay, host."
After looking at the two small Western-style buildings, Xu Manman was tired, so she went back to her space, took a shower, and fell asleep.
In the next few days, Xu Manman's life was relatively calm. Neither the newspaper nor the publishing house responded that quickly. She didn't rely on the royalties to make a living. If it didn't work this time, she could try again next time, so she was relatively calm.
There has been no notification from the school about the cross-disciplinary minor subject. I don’t know what the counselor is busy with these days. Xu Manman hasn’t seen him and has no chance to ask about the progress.
However, the few people in the dormitory had a good harvest. Each of them was equipped with a bedside table. Although the wood materials were different, the size and style were the same.
It is said that they found the wood at the scrap yard and Wang Zhen's husband helped them make it.
The third child, Wang Zhen, was a little embarrassed and brought a box of biscuits. "Manman, my husband partnered with someone to make some tables..."
Before she finished speaking, Xu Manman understood. It must be that her husband discovered a business opportunity and asked someone to make some small tables to sell.
Wang Zhen came to her now, probably because he thought that this was her idea in the beginning and they were using it to make money.
Xu Manman waved her hand and confiscated the packet of biscuits. "This little table wasn't invented by me. In ancient times, people placed small tables on couches or kangs. I just made it to make things more convenient for myself. My brother-in-law was able to find different opportunities from it, which shows that he has a quick mind and doesn't want to do anything else."
It wasn't her idea in the first place, and she didn't have the energy or interest to make money from it, so she decided not to accept the salary, otherwise the whole meaning would change, which wouldn't be in line with her original intention.
"That being said, if you hadn't done this, we wouldn't have thought of it, and my husband certainly wouldn't have thought of it, let alone now."
Xu Manman stuffed the biscuits back into her arms and said, "Third sister, I haven't finished the ones I bought last time. It would be a waste if you leave them for a long time without eating them. So, you can save these for a dinner snack. You need nutrition right now. If you really want to thank me, then give me two more red eggs after the baby is born. I will definitely not refuse."
Wang Zhen was also amused by Xu Manman, "You little girl, okay, then don't just talk about two, I'll give you six or eight."
The matter is finally over.
Xu Manman thought that the matter was over, but she didn't expect that in the dormitory, this matter had just begun.
The raw materials and production of the front end of the product were handled by Wang Zhen's husband and several of his friends, but after the product is produced, it must be sold.
Theirs is a small private workshop and is still considered a gray industry, so they cannot advertise openly.
As the first users, the members of dormitory 208 became potential salesmen for the bedside table.
Led by Wang Zhen, the first to respond were the fifth and eldest brothers, and then even the second and fourth brothers joined in.
Xu Manman declined this "work-study" opportunity on the grounds of attending classes.
Regardless of whether there are performance appraisals and indicator requirements, Xu Manman hates the job of salesperson. She has had enough of it in her previous life.
Even without Xu Manman's participation, the bed table business in Dormitory 208 is also booming. Not only in the girls' dormitory, but when I met my cousin in the library on Friday, I learned that their business has expanded to the boys' dormitory.
“说是从公社家具厂拿的货，我看了他们买的桌子，都是老木头，还上了漆价格虽然没有我们在废品站淘得那么便宜，以这个做工和用料来说，也算是实惠了。”
