When Zhang's parents and Liu Hai's parents saw the five hundred yuan, the eyes of the four elderly people lit up.
They split the five hundred yuan right there on the spot.
Of course, Ning Hong wasn't stupid either. He even had several elderly people and the village chief come to testify that he had paid them the money, and that would settle the matter.
Zhang Wei felt that Ning Hong looked a little strange.
But if you really asked her what was strange about him, she couldn't say.
Mr. Liu took out fifty yuan and handed it to Zhang Wei.
"Weiwei, here's the money. You can buy some things you like when you go to town occasionally."
"Thank you, Dad." Zhang Wei accepted the money without refusing.
This money is just a small amount.
It's 1980 now, opportunities are everywhere.
She plans to set up a stall selling skewers. She's confident she'll earn even more money in the future.
After repaying the money, Ning Hong calmly took Ning Xiaoshuang to town.
"Brother, what are you planning to do next?"
"It's very simple, just open a shop and do business."
"Brother, opening a shop is not an easy thing."
"I know, but to be honest, it's not that difficult."
Ning Hong then led her people directly to a state-run restaurant that was struggling financially.
The person in charge of this state-run restaurant was found.
He then proposed to take over the restaurant.
"Are you kidding me? To lease a restaurant?" This was the first time he had ever heard of someone wanting to lease a restaurant. Aren't people usually leasing land or hilltops?
How did it become a restaurant contracting arrangement when it came to him?
“I know Manager Liu may find it hard to understand, but I mean it sincerely.”
"Alright, bro, stop joking around."
"Listen to me first."
"I won't listen. There's no room for discussion on this matter."
Ning Hong was kicked out, feeling rather displeased, but she also understood that her approach was somewhat problematic.
"Brother, they won't allow it."
"It's okay, if they don't want to, they don't want to. I'll just set up a stall first, there'll always be a way."
He was lucky enough to win the intermediate cooking skill level in this lottery. With that skill, he's sure he'll find a way to succeed.
The moment he turned around.
He saw a very small shop, only about sixteen square meters.
They renovated their own houses and rented them out.
This family has many members, and they managed to squeeze out sixteen square meters to rent out.
Ning Hong rented the small house for ten yuan a month.
The small house wasn't very big, but it faced the main street.
Ning Hong then found a thick wooden plank and cut out the front and back sections.
"Brother, are you really going to open a shop?"
"The shop has already been rented, and two months' rent has been paid. We're definitely going to open the shop."
"So what are you planning to sell?"
"Braised food and steamed buns."
"Brother, but I didn't cook these two things well."
Ning Xiaoshuang thought her brother wanted her to do it.
Ning Hong shook her head, "I'll do it myself."
"Oh, you made it yourself?"
Is it safe to eat? Will there be any problems? Will it upset my stomach? In an instant, a series of questions flashed through Ning Xiaoshuang's mind.
They've already done some minor renovations.
They set up a table near the main street.
Ning Xiaoshuang sat down at the table, watching the shops around her bustling with people, and the business seemed quite good.
A few men, however, wanted to harass Ning Xiaoshuang, and when they looked at her face, they revealed lewd expressions.
"Hey, miss, what are you selling?"
The table is empty, yet they're still selling it for money; they must be selling this young lady.
"If you lower the price, I'll buy you."
"Get out of my way, don't mess with my sister."
"What's wrong with us? We just wanted to ask this young woman what she's selling?"
There are people who open their doors to do business but don't display anything.
Ning Hong carried a box of steamed buns and a pot of braised meat.
As soon as the lid was opened, wisps of fragrance rushed out.
It smells so good, it's absolutely delicious.
The aroma wafted across almost the entire street.
This made everyone who was eating suddenly lose their appetite.
Those who were teasing Ning Xiaoshuang were standing the closest, so when the smell wafted out, it covered their heads and faces.
They felt like they were about to drool.
"That's the kind of thing you sell."
"Yes, we'll sell this one."
Ning Hong then took out a pair of chopsticks, deftly pulled a snow-white steamed bun from another steamer, broke it open, and added braised meat.
"Sell it for one dollar like this."
"What? One yuan? That's so expensive."
Putting aside those who were attracted by the aroma, even Ning Xiaoshuang couldn't help but blush a little.
This is something like that, and the older brother wants to sell it for one dollar.
Isn't this going a bit too far?
But her older brother is currently running a business, and she can't afford to hinder him.
"I only sell them for one yuan, so what? Look at my steamed buns, and look at my braised meat, they smell so good."
It smells amazing.
Ning Xiaoshuang couldn't help but swallow.
This drew laughter from the onlookers.
"Boss, give me one to try. I want to see if this thing is worth a dollar."
Someone took out a dollar and accepted the steamed bun and meat from Ning Hongze's hand.
To dare sell something like that for a dollar, this guy is really bold. A meat bun costs at most 25 cents, he's certainly daring.
