Chapter 1107 Sister-in-law is like a Mother 26



In this age of gold, it is so easy for Lin Xiaoman to get rich. Unfortunately, she has too many restrictions on maintaining her image.

Just take it slow.

Get rich, start from selling vegetables!

If you make money, buy more houses and wait for demolition, you will be a real estate stuntwoman in the future. For the sake of the landlady, the original owner may come back.

Well, come on!

Wandering around, Lin Xiaoman recalled the information he had gathered from the field investigation. The temporary vegetable market area had now begun to take shape, and it would be the town's "commercial district" with the largest flow of people in the future.

The future vegetable market and small commodity market will be here. In the next ten years, this will be the commercial center of the town. That is, a few years before the original owner died, because there were more cars and the traffic was a bit congested, the economic circle began to develop towards the south of the town... Anyway, in the next fifteen years, this will be the most prosperous area of the town.

The owners of the shops along the street were definitely the first group of people to become rich.

Lin Xiaoman immediately thought of Aunt Xiao, the person who had taught the original owner the tofu-making skills.

Aunt Xiao's house was on the street and had a yard. It had an excellent location. At that time, she sold tofu in her own yard.

The original owner, Mu Xiaoxiao, met Aunt Xiao half a year after she started selling wontons. Aunt Xiao felt sorry for her and since they were both widows, she symbolically accepted a small amount of money from her and let her set up a stall in her yard. She asked her to help out on weekdays, and after they became more familiar with each other, which lasted about a year, Aunt Xiao passed on her tofu-making skills to her. The original owner took over Aunt Xiao's job and started selling tofu. Less than a year later, Aunt Xiao's daughter took her to the city, and the old yard was sold.

The original owner really liked this yard, but unfortunately, he had no money.

Or...buy it?

Before he knew it, Lin Xiaoman had arrived at Aunt Xiao's yard, which had a side door and was right next to the road.

It was not yet 7 o'clock, but for the vegetable sellers, it was not too late, and Aunt Xiao had already started her business.

The wooden gate to the courtyard opened inward, and outside the gate stood a wooden board with the word "tofu" written in coal ash and the price below: "20 cents per piece, 50 cents for three pieces."

If you stop and look into the yard, you can see a simple table with white gauze on the top.

Looking over, the moist gauze was covered with tender white tofu, including tender water tofu and firm tofu. There was also a lot of dried tofu in the basket beside the table.

As Lin Xiaoman paused to look around, an old lady carrying a bamboo basket came in and shouted, "Sister Xiao, three pieces of tender tofu!"

"Okay!"

In the corner of the yard, Aunt Xiao, who was washing clothes, wiped her hands, stood up and walked over.

Lin Xiaoman followed her in and watched the old lady pay the money and put the tofu into the iron lunch box and then into the bamboo basket.

Pretending to buy tofu and taking a look, Lin Xiaoman quickly showed an admiring expression, "Auntie, your tofu looks so tender and delicious! Give me three pieces of tender tofu."

"You have good taste, little girl!" Craftsmen love to hear others praise them. Aunt Xiao said happily, wrapping three pieces of tofu in paper and giving her four pieces of dried tofu. "Cut them into slices and put them in stir-fries or when roasting meat. They are both delicious."

"Thank you, Auntie."

After paying, Lin Xiaoman didn't leave. Instead, she tried to get closer to him. "Auntie, you live here, so you must be familiar with the surrounding area, right?"

"Of course, I'm very familiar with this place. I know all the ladies living here. Little girl, do you want to ask something? Just ask." Aunt Xiao was very enthusiastic.

"Auntie, this is the case. My sister-in-law and I want to start a business in town. Do you know where we can rent a storefront, or do you know where to sell a house?"

"Ah, buying a house?!" Aunt Xiao was surprised. Those who could afford to buy a house these days were definitely a minority. "I do know a few families who are renting, and as for selling their houses... there are one or two too. But buying a house is a big deal!"

"Well, I'll ask around first. If there's a suitable one, we'll take a look together as a family..." Lin Xiaoman smiled, feeling a little regretful. It seemed that Aunt Xiao had no plans to buy a house at the moment. Of course, it might also be because it was their first meeting and they weren't very open with each other.

Afterwards, after a few more friendly words, Lin Xiaoman left with the tofu. He walked around the town and observed every store. Lin Xiaoman had an idea in mind and then returned to the temporary vegetable market.

Lan Yachun had finished selling her vegetables and was waiting by her bicycle with a basket in her arms.

"Sister-in-law, are you sold out?" Lin Xiaoman ran over.

"Yes, it was sold for 2.38 yuan!" Lan Yachun smiled happily.

She had heard before that she could sell the vegetables from her farm to urban residents who didn't have vegetable gardens in the town, but unfortunately her husband was lazy and ashamed, and she, a woman, didn't dare to come to the town alone to do business.

Now that she really made money from selling vegetables, Lan Yachun was so excited. If she couldn't finish eating all the vegetables, they would rot in the fields. If she could sell them, it would be an income!

If I had more than 2 yuan every day...

Well, this is not realistic. I harvested a wave of vegetables this morning, and I’m afraid that the vegetables in the garden will only be enough for our family to eat within a week.

Back to reality, Lan Yachun started thinking about dividing the money. "Xiaoxiao, look at the money. How about we split it in half?"

"Just buy a fish!" Lin Xiaoman really didn't care about the 2 yuan. He said, shaking the tofu wrapped in paper in his hand, "I bought tofu. Let's go back and make tofu fish soup."

"Why waste this money?" Lan Yachun, who is a stingy person, was obviously unhappy. She hadn't even warmed up the money!
