"I've told you all the secrets. In exchange, please lend me your household registration to buy a house."
It was like a bucket of cold water was poured over his head, wiping out all the joy and excitement in Lingchuan's heart.
He looked at his wife, his dark eyes unable to hide the loss and hurt, "Momo, even if you don't tell me the secret, I will give you whatever you want as long as I have it."
Realizing that her words might have hurt the man's feelings, Yun Mo made amends by complimenting him, "Lingchuan, you are a good person."
He should have been happy that his wife praised him, but he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was.

It is better to buy a house as early as possible. The next day, Yun Mo asked Fang Chongzi to help her make an appointment with the landlord to discuss the purchase of the house.
After some bargaining, the sales contract was finally signed at a price of 13,800. Yun Mo paid a down payment of 7,000 first, and the rest would be paid in one lump sum after the transfer procedures were completed next week.
According to the old rules, after buying a house, one should invite relatives and friends to come over to celebrate the housewarming or something, but Yun Mo didn't want to show off.
As the saying goes, don't show off your wealth and don't show off your riches.
Truly smart people make their fortunes quietly and live their good lives behind closed doors.
Furthermore, if someone asked her about the source of the money for buying the house, she would have a hard time explaining.
After buying the house, Yun Mo immediately started to renovate the goose house.
Ling Chuan also called Ling Jiang and Zhou Xiaowei. The three men were all good workers and they built a new two-story cabin in just half a day.
After that, it took another two days to expand the 5-6 square meter pond to 10 square meters. By the way, a circle of cobblestone path was paved in the yard, which was specifically for Yunmo to relax and relieve stress when she was tired from studying.
After the renovation of the goose house and pond was completed, Lingchuan began to prepare to go to Urumqi to purchase goods.
Twenty thousand pieces of goods are not a small amount, so we have to find a warehouse to store the goods first.
The business had just started, so they tried to save as much as possible. There were enough rooms in the courtyard house anyway, so Yun Mo directly gave the four back rooms to Ling Chuan to use as temporary warehouses.
The space in the four back rooms is sufficient, but it still needs to be renovated.
The windows are equipped with anti-theft nets to prevent theft and rats; all the aging electrical wiring lines are replaced with new ones to prevent fire hazards; the walls are repainted to reduce dust, and even the floor is covered with moisture-proof and humidity-proof mats.
It is not enough to just renovate the room. Hundreds of small accessories of all kinds cannot be piled on the ground. They need shelves.
Ling Chuan took Zhou Xiaowei to several flea markets and bought back 30 sets of old shelves that others had discarded for very little money.
After repair, polishing and repainting, the 30 sets of old shelves were all brand new. After the paint dried, they were placed in four rooms respectively, and a fully functional warehouse was formed.
Now that we have a warehouse, the next step is to go to Urumqi to pick up the goods.
The night before departure, Yun Mo handed the payment for the goods and the research materials she wrote herself to Ling Chuan.
"Momo, did you write these yourself?"
"Well, I have listed clearly above how much of each variety to import, and what styles, colors, and patterns to choose. You can just choose the goods according to this list."
Looking at the beautiful lines of handwriting on the snow-white paper, Ling Chuan felt both happy and distressed. Seven or eight pages of paper were all filled with writing. Even if he wrote non-stop, it would take several hours.
He must keep these materials well, because every word on them embodies his daughter-in-law's wisdom and hard work.
After collecting the information, he reminded her worriedly, "Momo, I won't be home these few days, so you have to be careful and lock the doors and windows at night."
"Yes, I know."
Yun Mo never worried about her personal safety. She had plenty of self-defense weapons in her space, so dealing with a few thieves was no problem.
The next day was Monday, the day Yunmo reported to No. 3 Middle School.
He had already walked out of the house, but as if he had thought of something, he turned back, took out the photo from the bedside frame, put it in the inner pocket of his coat, pressed it with his hand, and then left home contentedly.
When they were about to reach the gate of No. 3 Middle School, Yun Mo saw Zhong Weimin standing at the gate, looking around expectantly.
Could he be waiting for her on purpose? Just as she was thinking about it, she saw Zhong Weimin waving at her.
Yun Mo quickened her pace and walked towards the other person, "Teacher Zhong, what a coincidence."
"I waited for you here on purpose, in case you couldn't find my office."
You're worrying too much. I can even get into the broadcasting room, so how can I not find your office?
Yun Mo complained in her heart, but she still said with gratitude, "Thank you, Teacher Zhong."
"You're welcome. Come on, I'll take you to complete the admission procedures."
"Um."

As soon as she stepped into the school gate, Yun Mo attracted attention from all directions.
Although she was a transfer student, she had been to No. 3 Middle School several times before, and many people knew her. Moreover, even those who didn't know her would take a second look at her because of her appearance.
"Look, it's Yun Mo! She really transferred to No. 3 Middle School!"
"Zhong Weimin personally took her to complete the formalities. It seems that she will definitely join the first class."
"That's nonsense. Her unified test scores ranked eighth in the city. Which class can she go to other than Class 1?"
"Don't you think she's very beautiful? She just made eye contact with me and my heart beat so fast."
"She is quite pretty. If she had come here a month earlier, the title of school beauty wouldn't have gone to a junior high school girl."
The admission procedures were quite simple. Of course, it might also be that Zhong Weimin had already arranged everything for her, including filling out forms and submitting photos. The whole process took less than 10 minutes.
"You have to wait until the Academic Affairs Office comes to work before you can get your student ID. I'll take you to the classroom to study first."
"good."
It would be a lie to say that she wasn't nervous as she had just arrived, but Yun Mo concealed her emotions very well. On the surface, she looked generous and calm. Zhong Weimin frequently cast admiring glances at her.
"Yun Mo, the school is going to select a group of people to participate in the Olympic Games. Are you interested? I have seen your grades in various subjects. You are outstanding in mathematics. If you want to participate, you can sign up for the Mathematical Olympiad."
Yun Mo shook her head without even thinking about it, "No, Mr. Zhong, I don't want to go the competition route."
Zhong Weimin was not very surprised to hear her answer.
At that time, the Olympiad was not as popular as it is in later generations. Many people didn’t even know what it was. For high school students of that era, the college entrance examination was the right way.
It’s not time for class yet, but the classroom is almost full of people, all of whom are concentrating on their studies, creating a very tense atmosphere of senior year in high school.
Even when she entered the classroom, no one noticed. It was not until Zhong Weimin spoke that everyone looked up and saw surprise and curiosity on her face.
"This is Yun Mo, the new student who has transferred to our class. Please introduce yourself to everyone."
"Hello everyone, my name is Yun Mo, Yun as in the white clouds and Mo as in jasmine. I'm very happy to be your classmate."
As soon as he finished speaking, warm applause broke out in the classroom.
