Chapter 423
Lin Wang smiled and said, "Mom! It's okay, today we're just trying it out, we can cook more tomorrow!"
You cook two pots in the morning and two more at noon. I'll go out early to sell them, and by one o'clock they'll be mostly sold. I'll come back and make another trip, and I'll earn twice as much."
Mother Lin said distressedly, "Will you be out in the heat all day? That's not okay. The temperature is 37 or 38 degrees Celsius every day now. What if you get heatstroke?"
"It's okay! I sell under the shade of trees. It's not that hot, and I can either stand or sit. It's much more comfortable than carrying goods some time ago.
The point is, the salary is several times higher than before! Mom… I… I want to make money, I want to repeat my studies!
Mother Lin's tears suddenly burst out. Ever since her eldest son failed the preliminary exam some time ago and came back saying that he was far from the passing score and that repeating the exam would not be very effective, she has never mentioned this topic again.
But she knew that her son secretly read in his room every night. After ten years of hard study, how could she be willing to give up?
"Mom gets it, good boy. Let's build up the business together. When the time comes, you can go back to school to repeat your studies, and I can go out and sell sweet soup myself. It won't delay you. I will definitely let you go back to school!"
"No, Mom, grandma can't be left alone for a long time. You take care of the house and I'll go set up the stall.
I've thought it through. There are still two months left before the next school starts. If I can maintain this income, I can make a lot of money.
After returning to school, I used my weekends to go to crowded parks to sell them. Su Miao said that this thermos can keep both cold and hot food in. When the weather gets cold, we can just heat it up and sell it outside, and we can still get business."
"Xiao Wang, we were able to find this opportunity thanks to your classmate Su Miao. Most people only feel that they don't earn enough, and they don't want to teach others how to make money. She is such a good person.
We must remember her kindness, and if there is anything we can do for her in the future, please let her know."
"Okay, I know."
Over there, Lin Wang was selling sweet soup briskly, while over here, Su Miao was studying hard.
Sometimes I am so tired that I lie down on the table and take a nap during class. When I open my eyes again, the confused feeling is exactly the same as when I was preparing for the exam in my previous life. I even feel like I have not been reborn, but just had a long dream.
This feeling was really not pleasant, so Su Miao encouraged himself, relaxed himself, and treated it with a normal attitude. He no longer stayed up late to read at night, and his mind became clearer.
The countdown is getting longer day by day, and there are only three days left until the college entrance examination.
Su Miao uses her brain a lot and gets hungry quickly, so there is always a supply of snacks in her bag. However, recently she feels that only meat can replenish her energy, so she runs very fast after school every day and goes home to eat the "special meals" made by her father.
Su Miao saw his father and Lin Wang talking at the door of the store from a distance and hurried over.
Seeing his daughter coming back, Su Yuanzheng immediately said: "Miaomiao, you're back just in time. Lin Wang, you're so polite!
I lent him two old thermoses before, and he actually bought two new ones to return. Tell him to take these two new ones back.
Su Miao looked down and saw two brand new thermoses by the door. He understood what was going on and said, "The thermos I lent you before was old and unused. You can just return it. You can take these two new ones back and set up your stall."
Lin Wang laughed and said, "How can that be possible? I've used those two thermoses for a while now, so how can I return the old ones?
As for those small bowls and spoons, I see your store has plenty of tableware, so why not just sell them to me? You can keep the ten dollars."
After saying that, he stuffed the ten yuan in his hand into Su Miao's hand.
Su Miao pushed it back and said, "Those old tableware are not worth ten dollars! Just give me three or four dollars."
Lin Wang refused to take it, turned around and was about to get on his tricycle and run away, saying, "I want it, I want it, put it away quickly, I'm going back first."
Su Miao shouted from behind: "Okay, okay, I'll take it. Don't run away yet. I have something to tell you."
After hearing this, Lin Wang stopped.
Su Miao asked his father to put the thermos away first, then asked Lin Wang, "How's business been lately?"
Lin Wang said with a very satisfied smile: "Now I sell four buckets of sugar water every day and can earn 20 yuan a day.
My mother has stopped being a nanny. I originally wanted her to just take care of the family, but she was worried about me so she insisted on following me to the stall. This way I would have an easier time and could sell faster.
I open the stall at 10 o'clock every day and close it at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I can use my free time to take care of my grandma, Su Miao, thank you so much."
"You've already thanked me many times, so there's no need to be so polite."
"Yes, my family is very grateful to you for your help and advice. It solved our urgent problem. My parents said that if we need any help in the future, please let us know."
"Okay, I'll definitely come to you if I need anything next time, so don't thank me anymore. I've got another idea, would you like to hear it?"
"Okay? What's the idea?"
Like everyone before him, Lin Wang was now very convinced of Su Miao's "idea" and asked quickly.
"Does your mother know how to make zongzi?"
Lin Wang nodded and replied, "Yes, we sell the rice dumplings and the sugar water together?"
"On the day of the Gaokao, there will surely be scores of parents waiting outside each exam hall. Ask your aunt to make some small zongzi (rice dumplings), then find some bamboo poles to tie the dumplings to the top. The bamboo poles will rise higher and higher, and the dumplings tied to them will become 'Gao Zong (middle)'. I'm sure many parents will be willing to buy them!"
Lin Wang was stunned and stammered, "It's...it's still possible?"
Su Miao said confidently: "Of course you can, there is no need to make it as troublesome as making rice dumplings, just make those small strips of rice dumplings, which will have a good meaning. If you go there that day and your taste buds are sweet, it will definitely sell well.
Those parents waiting outside, feeling hot and impatient, never let the rock sugar water run out, just keep making more pots. There are so many exam halls, so once this one is almost sold out, go to the next one. A hard day's work will definitely double your profits!
The more Lin Wang listened, the more he thought this idea was brilliant. It captured the hearts of the students and their parents, so he excitedly said, "Okay! I'll sell it that day! Su Miao, which exam room were you in that day? Was it our school?"
Su Miao shook her head. "No, this year our school is the liberal arts examination center. We have to go to No. 2 Middle School to take the exam. It's quite troublesome, but my dad will take me there on his bike. It's not far, so it's okay. We'll go to see the examination center tomorrow."
Lin Wang nodded in understanding and said with a smile, "Okay! I'll go to No. 2 Middle School early that day and give you all 'Gao Zong (Zhong)'. I wish you all success in the college entrance exam!"
