He's a father of two and has been a team leader for half a year, but Gouzi is still as unreliable as ever.
"How much did you earn? We'll talk about it inside. Don't attract thieves outside."
Zhang Yan was a cautious person. Seeing her husband's excited expression, she knew he had made a lot of money. She quickly pushed him into the house and told him to talk about it once they were inside.
"We took a hundred pieces of clothing out today and went to two places, and they were all sold out! Since the main purpose was to test my ability to sell them, I sold most of these clothes myself. The team leader just watched from the side. Let's say 60 pieces were sold. I made 5 yuan per piece. I made 300 yuan just from the ones I sold today!"
Without the team leader, I wouldn't have earned this money, so I'll split it with him. But even so, I still earned 150 yuan. If I work alone in the future, even if I don't earn that much, I think earning ten or twenty yuan a day wouldn't be a problem!
The dog was incredibly excited. He had already been excited several times outside, but when he came back and told Zhang Yan, he couldn't help but get excited again. 150 yuan! That's all you can earn in a year in the countryside!
However, the team leader also told him that there was an element of chance in earning so much today; only a few people can sell so much at once, and he shouldn't have such high hopes. After all, in business, there are always busy and slow periods.
He never imagined he'd earn so much money at once. His goal was just 10 yuan a day. That would be 300 yuan a month, enough for their expenses here, and they could save a lot too.
Even if I can't earn 10 yuan a day, as long as I can earn more than 50 or 60 yuan a month, I can manage. I can use 30 yuan for basic expenses and save the remaining 20 yuan, send my child to school, or do other things.
"so much!"
Zhang Yan was also incredibly surprised. She could hardly believe it. She knew how to make money, but she never imagined it would be this profitable.
"Then let's stay here! We'll play here for a few days, then go back and tell our parents about it, then pack our things and come up. Before we go back, let's rent a house first."
If Mom and Dad are willing, they can come up with us and help take care of the child. If not, we'll have to leave the puppy at home with Mom and Dad. When Gou Dan reaches school age, we'll bring him up with us so he can attend An'an School.
Zhang Yan made her decision immediately. With such huge profits in front of them, it was impossible for them not to be tempted. She believed that Gouzi's parents would also be willing.
"That's right, let's do it that way!"
Gouzi finalized the deal with Zhang Yan in just a few words.
Yu Jiu and Xu Zi watched with smiles. She knew that as long as they could see how profitable business could be, no one would be unwilling to do it.
For example, Lin Xiaonong, he basically doesn't act as a middleman anymore. He feels it's too much of a waste of his money, and he'd rather just set up a stall and earn more. This month, he's been setting up his stall every day, selling at least four or five pieces of clothing each day. If he earns two yuan per piece, he can earn at least eight yuan a day, which adds up to 240 yuan a month, which is really good.
Moreover, they can change locations at any time. Since it's a stall, if business isn't good here, they can move to another place and continue selling. Selling a few pieces of clothing a day is really not difficult. The hardest things in doing business are capital and sourcing channels. Now, these two bottles of Yu Jiu and Xu Zijiang have solved those problems for them. It's purely about making money; how could anyone not make it?
Unless someone is extremely dull and has very low emotional intelligence, they won't be able to do any business at all.
"Then we'll help you find a place in the next few days, preferably somewhere near us, that would be more convenient. But when it comes to finding a place, you should still contact that young man. He'll come over later, and I'll introduce you two."
Yu Jiu said warmly.
"Okay, then I'll trouble the team leader and Yu Zhiqing."
The dog smiled and refused to drink the remaining wine, and Xu Zijiang was being too formal; there was no need for that.
However, they didn't know when Lin Xiaonong would come over. Sometimes he would come back from his stall late, around 7 or 8 pm, and sometimes 5 or 6 pm. They were about to go eat now and didn't plan to wait for him. Anyway, they lived nearby, so he could go home first and come back to find them later. That's always been how it was.
"Let's go eat."
The four adults took the four children out to eat again. At noon, Yu Jiu took them to a small restaurant that served all kinds of dishes. In the evening, they were going to eat at a restaurant that specialized in mutton and beef stew, which was especially delicious. Yu Jiu and Xu Zi often bought it back for extra meals.
An'an and Gou Dan have good teeth and can eat these, but Yuan Yuan and Gou Zai are still too young to eat them, so we went to the restaurant next door to buy them steamed eggs and porridge before coming back here to eat together.
It was equivalent to four adults and two children eating together. In the end, Xu Zi was the one who went to pay the bill, and Gou Zi went with him. He was planning to see how much a meal cost here.
"My goodness, this meal cost 28 yuan?"
In the countryside, even working in a department store would only earn you 20 yuan a month, but here you've eaten a whole month's salary in one meal! It's true that making money is easy, but spending it is just too easy.
"A meal like this costs so much, yet so many people still come to eat here. It's true that there are more rich people in big cities!"
The dog exclaimed in surprise, "I wish I could be like that too, spending twenty or thirty yuan on a meal without batting an eye!"
“We don’t eat this expensive every meal. First of all, there are four adults here. You and I both have big appetites, and my wife and your wife eat quite a lot too. Only the two kids eat less. We ordered two jin each of beef and mutton, as well as beef brisket, offal, and other miscellaneous dishes. We also added several other dishes.”
We've really loosened up our portions, so we're actually eating less meat in our rice dishes, which is why the prices are definitely higher. Normally, we wouldn't eat this much. You can look at other people's tables; each person only orders a bowl of beef offal, or beef brisket, or beef, and the meal only costs two or three yuan. It's not that outrageous.
Xu Zi raised his chin, gesturing for him to look. Gouzi looked around and found it was indeed true.
"So, how much do you usually spend when you buy snacks to add to your meals?"
Gouzi wasn't interested in finding out exactly how much money Xu Zijiang and Yu Jiu had; he mainly wanted to know how much it would cost per month to reach their standard of living, and whether he could earn that much.
If he can't do that, he'll probably have to go back to the countryside. It's easier there, closer to home, and he won't have to leave his hometown. He can save every penny he earns, so the pressure is relatively less.
"Four or five yuan is usually enough. I can stir-fry some greens and eat them with the leftovers from lunch. That's enough."
Xu Zijiang didn't mind; he told Gouzi what to do when he asked.
That seems alright. Anyway, they don't eat extra meals every day. It's already pretty good if they can have this once or twice a week. After all, when they lived in the countryside, they couldn't eat meat all year round. They couldn't even eat pork, let alone beef.
Gouzi has thoroughly researched all the expenses here, including how much it would cost for Gou Dan to study here. He believes he can earn that money and won't let his wife and children suffer, so he doesn't need to change his decisions.
