"Are you going to the countryside?" Su Xinyi asked in surprise.
Su Xinwan asked shyly, "Is there anything wrong with going to the countryside?"
Seeing Su Xinyi like this, she thought it was pretty good.
Only Su Xinyi knew how much she had suffered before meeting Ye Beiping, someone who treated her so well.
Even her classmates of so many years wanted to frame her.
If it weren't for Ye Beiping's rescue, she might have already hanged herself.
"Xinyi?"
"Xinyi?"
Suddenly, Su Xinyi and Su Xinwan heard a faint male voice outside the window.
Su Xinyi recognized the voice and, realizing something, quickly ran to the window and looked down.
Sure enough, it was a familiar figure who said in a low voice, "Why aren't you coming up?"
Seeing that Ye Beiping was still carrying something, Su Xinyi immediately understood why.
This is because they were worried I wasn't eating well, so they specially sent me food.
"Wait for me a moment, I'll be right down."
As she spoke, Su Xinyi prepared to run downstairs.
Su Xinwan immediately stopped her, afraid that her sister and the man downstairs would run away: "Sis, if you go out like this, Dad and Mom will definitely find out. How about I go downstairs and get it for you? They won't suspect anything if I go out."
Upon hearing this, Su Xinyi felt that her sister made sense, but she also wanted to see Ye Beiping and had many questions for him.
"Let's go down together," Su Xinyi suggested, using a suggestion from the drama.
With Su Xinwan's consent, the two went out.
When Su Qingwen questioned her, Su Xinwan made up an excuse to go out for a walk.
Su Ze, who was standing next to him, watched the door close, raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying, "Dad, Mom, I'm full, I'm going back to my room."
Su Qingwen and Min Yuehua had no doubts; they were still thinking about Su Xinyi.
downstairs.
When Ye Beiping saw Su Xinyi come down, she was followed by a girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old who looked somewhat like his wife.
"Xinyi, you must not have eaten well. I packed some chicken soup and braised pork for you." Ye Beiping said, lifting the packed food in his hand.
Actually, it wasn't a takeout; he just brought over the plates from the state-run restaurant, paid a deposit, and could get a refund later.
Seeing so much delicious food, the two sisters, Su Xinyi and Su Xinwan, swallowed hard.
The three of them found a stone table, with a lamp shining nearby.
When Ye Beiping presented the chicken soup and braised pork, Su Xinwan exclaimed, "Wow, I haven't eaten meat in so long!"
This scene really embarrassed Su Xinyi.
Thinking back to that home, Su Ze was always given the best food first.
They could only eat after Su Ze finished.
But after each meal, the most we could do was taste the leftovers.
"Um, this is my younger sister. She's usually very outgoing..." Su Xinyi didn't know how to explain.
Ye Beiping didn't care about any of this and simply pushed the dishes in front of the two of them: "Xinyi, sister, you can eat slowly."
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
Suddenly hearing Su Xinwan call him brother-in-law, Ye Beiping's heart leaped with lust.
Su Xinyi, on the other hand, felt a little embarrassed.
"Alright, alright, if my sister likes it, I'll bring it to you every day." Ye Beiping wasn't afraid of exaggerating and saying that the two dishes cost nearly eight yuan.
It costs eight yuan a day, which adds up to 240 yuan a month.
Upon hearing this, Su Xinyi frowned but didn't blame Ye Beiping for saying that. Instead, she asked curiously, "Why did you suddenly come to bring food?"
Speaking of this, Ye Beiping was fortunate to have overheard them at the state-run restaurant saying that the educated youth who had gone to the countryside had quarreled on their first day back home.
“I know your aunt and uncle will ask a lot of questions today, and you will be impatient. You probably won’t eat much for dinner, so I thought I’d come and bring you some food, just in case you’re hungry.”
Su Xinyi felt incredibly warm inside, and blushed as she lowered her head.
Su Xinwan, with her mouth full of braised pork, looked on enviously at her sister and...brother-in-law.
Yes, he really is my brother-in-law. Judging from his heartwarming attitude, Ye Beiping is indeed my brother-in-law.
Seeing that Su Xinyi hadn't touched her food, Ye Beiping quickly urged her to start eating.
Su Xinyi used to never talk while eating, but I don't know when she started, she asked, "Have you found a place to stay?"
"Found it." Ye Beiping helped pour the chicken soup and answered without looking up, "I'll look for a house in the next few days."
"Uh-huh."
Hearing Su Xinyi's reply, Ye Beiping looked up and said with a smile, "Xinyi, I've found a place to make money."
make money?
These two words instantly caught the attention of Su Xinyi and Su Xinwan, and the two sisters looked up at Ye Beiping.
How long have you been in Hangzhou?
"So fast?" Su Xinyi exclaimed in surprise.
"Hmm." Ye Beiping nodded and explained, "When we were having dinner earlier, I heard them say that some factories in Wencheng are selling leather shoes quite well, so I'm thinking of getting some leather shoes to sell."
"Leather shoes?" Su Xinyi and Su Xinwan asked in unison.
Everyone in the city knows that leather shoes aren't cheap.
Even the cheapest pair costs fifteen or twenty yuan, which is half a month's wages for an average worker.
The expensive ones cost tens or even hundreds of dollars.
Ye Beiping nodded emphatically: "A pair of leather shoes costs only a few yuan in Wenzhou, but back in Hangzhou, they start at least at fifteen yuan. If you buy them in Shanghai, they start at twenty yuan."
"The profit is three to four times."
Upon hearing this, Su Xinyi felt the profits were indeed good, but her only concern was: "But wouldn't what we're doing be considered reselling? Isn't that a bit dangerous?"
“Yes, yes, that’s exactly what happened to my classmate’s dad,” Su Xinwan chimed in.
Ye Beiping knew all of this.
In the 1970s, doing business was a game where the bold got rich and the timid starved.
"Don't worry," Ye Beiping said firmly, explaining, "I have a way to solve this problem."
It's just a matter of avoiding the people from the Industry and Commerce Bureau.
At worst, you can spend some money to bribe state-owned department stores and make a profit from the difference; that amount of money is not insignificant.
"How are you going to solve this? Besides, those state-owned factories won't..."
Before Su Xinyi could even ask for it, Ye Beiping explained with a smile, "Those factories are all affiliated with state-owned factories; they're all privately owned."
"What?"
This news shocked Su Xinyi and Su Xinwan once again.
Is this even possible?
Isn't this exploiting a loophole?
Ye Beiping was not surprised by the two people's surprise. This was due to the information gap. Many people did not know that Wencheng's goods would have been distributed all over the country long ago.
"So there's no need to worry about getting the goods. As for selling them, I have my own methods."
Su Xinyi wanted to say something, but Ye Beiping stopped her.
"Xinyi, trust me."
For some reason, upon hearing this, Su Xinyi unconditionally chose to believe it.
But there are still concerns.
After all, Hangzhou is different from the countryside; the regulations here are very strict.
