After hearing this explanation, Grandma Qiu became even angrier.
"Aren't you human? You can't even do this simple thing right, what else can you do?"
"I......"
Ye Beiping pointed to himself, his eyes widening, and said, "I want to make money, Grandma Qiu."
There was a hint of bitterness in his voice.
It seems I regret renting this house; why did I end up having an elder managing me?
Perhaps it was because the all-inclusive meal deal was just too tempting at the time.
But I never expected the landlord to be such a tyrant, the kind you can't scold or beat.
Grandma Qiu perked up at the mention of making money: "You make money? What kind of money do you make? Show me how much money you've earned! You don't go to work every day, just wander around, and you still say you're making money? I bet you're going to be starving. You're not making money, yet you hire a nanny. Are you acting like a landlady?"
As the words grew increasingly harsh, Ye Beiping didn't know how to respond, so Su Xinyi immediately stopped Grandma Qiu.
“Grandma, he’s planning to start a business in Beiping, but he can’t go out these days because he hasn’t been able to settle things at home. He’s mainly worried about me. Once things are settled at home, he’ll start making money.”
Su Xinyi was afraid that Grandma Qiu wouldn't believe her, so she pulled her to sit down at the dining table: "Grandma Qiu, Beiping is really amazing. He can fix radios and other things, and he cooks delicious food. Please don't scold him."
As she spoke, she kept giving Ye Beiping meaningful glances.
"Repair a radio?" Grandma Qiu looked at Ye Beiping with some skepticism, then glanced at the radio in her living room and said, "Okay, if you really know how to fix it, fix the radio in my living room, and you won't have to cook dinner."
puff!
Ye Beiping almost coughed up blood.
Does fixing a radio mean I don't have to cook dinner? What kind of nonsense is this? Is it voluntary labor?
But considering that Su Xinyi would be eating here every day from now on, he could only nod in agreement.
Seeing that Ye Beiping was actually tinkering with the radio and asking about tools and such, Grandma Qiu watched for a long time but found that she couldn't understand it, so she could only pull Su Xinyi to the kitchen with her.
While she was chopping vegetables, Grandma Qiu asked, "Xinyi, what kind of business is this boy planning to start?"
Knowing that Grandma Qiu was concerned, Su Xinyi didn't hide anything and told the truth.
"He wanted to go to Wenzhou to get some leather goods to sell back in Hangzhou."
"Oh." Grandma Qiu was an experienced person, so of course she knew that Wencheng's leather was famous. She then asked, "Isn't he afraid of getting arrested for doing this business? Look at those stalls on the street, they change groups of people all the time. They either get arrested or lose money."
"Nowadays, people prefer to buy things from reputable places. Cheap goods on the street are unwanted. And I've seen people charging all sorts of random fees there. You might end up losing all your money before you even sell anything."
After all, Grandma Qiu was once a wealthy young lady, and although the times didn't allow it, she was still very open-minded about doing business.
A living person can't die from holding in their pee.
They can't afford to eat, they have no jobs, and they're not allowed to live.
Su Xinyi hadn't thought about these issues, and said with a smile, "Beiping has his own ways; he's also very good at business. Before, we..."
Su Xinyi also told everyone about the Jiangshan Brewery.
Although she had mentioned it before, it was only briefly; this time, she told everyone she knew.
This made Grandma Qiu's gaze change as she looked at Ye Beiping, who was intently repairing the radio in the living room. She hadn't expected the little guy to be so clever.
Time always flies when you're chatting while cooking.
Before long, Grandma Qiu's dinner was ready.
When Ye Beiping was called to dinner, his radio was also repaired.
"Dinner's ready."
"It's fixed."
Their unanimous words startled all three of them.
Grandma Qiu pointed to the radio on the coffee table with some disbelief and asked, "It's fixed already? So fast?"
You have to understand, this radio is an old relic. Before, when I took it to get repaired, those small stalls would tinker with it for at least several hours.
Even if it's repaired, it breaks down again soon after you bring it back.
Ye Beiping nodded and tapped the radio with a screwdriver: "Grandma, your radio is too old. It's probably more than 30 years old, right?"
"Even if it's fixed now, it'll probably break again in a short time. One of the wires inside is worn out, and to fix it completely, the wire will have to be replaced."
"No wonder."
When Grandma Qiu saw that Ye Beiping spoke logically, she immediately understood why the repair had broken down again not long after it was fixed.
It turns out those people didn't actually replace the cable; they just fixed it and made it work.
I just want to make money several times over.
