With the strong addition of pickled duck, profits increased by more than two times. At the end of the year, after deducting the principal and the "dividends" given to Ma Fuguo, Li Hongmei and her husband had nearly four figures in their hands.
In this era where a person with a monthly income of 10,000 yuan can be published in the newspaper, one thousand yuan is definitely a huge sum of money.
During the prosperous New Year, Li Hongmei started thinking about opening a shop in the town. After coming up with the idea, when Ma Fuguo brought his wife back to his parents' home on the second day of the New Year, Li Hongmei mentioned the matter to him.
Ma Fuguo readily said that he would take care of the matter of finding a store.
A few days after the Chinese New Year, Ma Fuguo told Ma Jianguo that he had found the store and he could go and have a look when he had time.
Ma Jianguo and Li Hongmei were eager to go to the town, but Lin Xiaoman kept pestering them to go with them for various reasons, fearing that they would be cheated.
Because Wang Xiaoli was looking after the children and Song Ping was always at home, Li Hongmei had nothing to worry about.
So, the family of three went to the town to look at the shops the next day.
Ma Fuguo looked for several shops and after some on-site inspections, under Lin Xiaoman's seemingly unintentional instigation, he finally chose a two-story house along the street, with two shops on the ground floor and living space upstairs.
You can rent the store alone or buy the entire thing. The owner is asking for twelve hundred yuan.
This price is definitely expensive. However, this area will become the center of the town in the future, and shops will be hard to find, which is exactly what the saying "one shop can support three generations" means.
After returning home, the couple discussed the issue of renting or buying for several days. Li Hongmei was more inclined to buy, while Ma Jianguo was more inclined to rent. He wanted to use the money he had to build a house in the village.
Lin Xiaoman wanted to incite Ma Jianguo, the short-sighted man, but unfortunately she was too young and could only constantly persuade Li Hongmei and encourage her in various ways.
Finally, Li Hongmei gritted her teeth and made a firm decision: buy it! And put her name on the house. After all, she earned the money!
Then, they raised the price and bargained on the spot. After a lot of back and forth, the final transaction price was 1,008 yuan. They had to pay 500 yuan upfront and the balance three months later.
They already had a shop and a house, and they also needed a car, so the couple went to buy a bicycle that day.
When I came back, my brand new bicycle was a big hit in the village for a while.
For the next half month, Ma Jianguo rode his bike to the town every day to deliver goods while also being responsible for decorating the store.
Finally, after twenty days, Hongmei Delicatessen officially opened.
Two strings of big red firecrackers were hung high in front of the store. On the opening day, Li Hongmei, wearing a red cotton-padded jacket, smiled happily, holding Ma Ruzhen, who was also wrapped in a red jacket. On her right was Ma Jianguo, who was also wearing red, and on her left was Lin Xiaoman, who was also wearing red. The whole family was dressed neatly in red and stood in front of the store.
When the auspicious time arrived, with Ma Fuguo and his wife, Ma Qiangguo's family, customers who came to support the event, and villagers who came to watch the fun... under the witness of everyone, firecrackers were set off...
The store was announced to be open.
The crackling sound of firecrackers is deafening!
Just as Lin Xiaoman was covering his ears, a strange feeling suddenly came over him. It was a kind of attraction. The whole person seemed to be sucked into the depths, floating in the space. He could not help but watch the screen in front of him.
Lin Xiaoman: This is a familiar and long-lost feeling!
It’s a regulatory model!
Lin Xiaoman tried to turn his head and look elsewhere, but unfortunately, the scene in front of him was still stuck on the dazzling firecrackers, without moving at all.
Well, it’s confirmed.
Lin Xiaoman quickly called the system, "Tongzi, send a message to ask, is it No. 75 who intervened?"
System 666: 'Good Master.'
About a second later, "Master, the 75 system replied that they did not intervene. This should be the original owner's autonomous behavior."
'Okay, I understand.'
Lin Xiaoman thought about it and understood. The original owner, Malaidi, was reluctant to give up everything she had, but was also afraid that she wouldn't be able to live well now. So, her business nature meant that even if she returned, she would still want to maximize her profits.
As for the supervision model, with her as a service staff, there will definitely be no problems.
"Tongzi, explain our situation to System 75 and ask if it will have any impact on them."
'Master, the situation report has been sent.'
'Master, the other party replied, no effect.'
'Oh, that's good.'
After receiving the reply, Lin Xiaoman felt that he could watch the movie with peace of mind. Well, the regulatory model is so boring, and this time it will probably take seventy or eighty years.
But, the source of the soul!
Persevere, victory is just around the corner. What is a mere eighty years? It will pass in the blink of an eye!
The original owner, Malaidi, is online, and Lin Xiaoman has switched to being a behind-the-scenes supervisor, just watching like this.
With salted duck eggs and pickled duck as two main products, the store is doing a booming business. In addition to the regular customers brought in by Ma Fuguo, retail sales have also increased significantly.
Li Hongmei and her husband earned more money and were also busier. This time, Li Hongmei called her younger brother to help, paying him 15 yuan a month.
After the tasks were assigned, Li Hongmei started thinking about new things.
Three months passed in a flash, and the final payment for the house was paid off. The family still had more than 500 yuan left, making them a definitely wealthy family.
She sold a variety of cooked food, and after accumulating enough money, Li Hongmei bought a house and switched to the restaurant industry, and her business grew bigger and bigger.
Time is like running water, gurgling...
Malaidi is 7 years old...
Malaidi is 8 years old and goes to school.
Ma Laidi was 9 years old when Ma Sanya was born. Li Hongmei named her Ma Rubao.
