Qiao Zhixia took advantage of the moment when Aunt Qiao San was laughing and paid everyone who helped plant the vegetables in front of everyone watching the excitement.
"Oh, that's so much!" The aunts and uncles hurriedly stood up, wiped the mud on their hands on their trouser legs, and happily took the money.
“It should be.”
"Xiao Qiao, have you found a way to make money? Next time you have such a good job, don't forget to come to us again!" The bearded uncle said happily after receiving the money.
Qiao Zhixia glanced at the envious eyes around her, turned around and smiled faintly: "That's for sure, remember to come to my house for dinner later, 꿷꽭 asked my mother to stew pork belly."
"Okay..." The aunts, uncles and aunts were overjoyed, and when they squatted down to work, they were all full of energy.
Qiao Zhixia pushed away Aunt Qiao San, who had a stern look on her face. She looked as if the money Qiao Zhixia gave out was hers, which was really funny.
After leaving the family's vegetable fields to her parents, she set off for the county seat.
꿷꽭 is the day I signed the agency agreement with Boss Zhao.
According to the agreement, they would earn fifty cents for every vegetable they helped her sell. Based on her previous sales of several thousand vegetables each time, the commission income of each sales outlet would be hundreds of yuan.
But she also saved time, management and store costs.
So it’s a win-win situation.
The agency agreement was temporarily signed, which can be regarded as an assessment of both parties.
After leaving the county town, she went directly to the city to find her own store.
She knew about the new urban planning in two days, so she simply avoided those areas that were bustling temporarily but would become bustling later.
She chose a location near a farmers' market, which would be demolished in two days and turned into a new station, and a city hospital would be built two kilometers away.
After walking around for a while, she saw a shop about one hundred square meters on the roadside north of the market.
This store belongs to the cannery at the back. Due to various reasons, the cannery is not doing well and wants to sublease its own store.
This canning factory will not be demolished for another two years. It seems that it will be reformed as a state-owned enterprise and will receive foreign investment.
Qiao Zhixia found the person in charge of the canning factory and discussed it with him.
Although the rent is not expensive, you need a letter of introduction from a state-owned enterprise to rent it.
Qiao Zhixia was in a dilemma. Who should she ask for the letter of introduction?
She was feeling worried on her way back when she heard the sound of a car horn in front of her.
"Isn't this Xiao Qiaozhi?" The back window of Santana rolled down and a Chinese man wearing glasses stuck his head out.
Qiao Zhixia was slightly startled, then she put on a smile: "Deputy Mine Director Yang, what a coincidence!"
Isn't it just a coincidence? Deputy Mine Director Yang promised last time that if I need help, I can look for him.
Don’t we have the letter of introduction?
A few days later, she brought all the necessary documents, found the person in charge of the canning factory again, and finally signed a five-year contract with a rent of 300 yuan per person.
The next thing is to decorate the store. She had already discussed it with her father, and the decoration work would be handed over to Uncle Gao to find a construction team to do it.
This is also to take the opportunity to let Uncle Gao make some money.
After the store issue was resolved, she stopped by the county town's clothing mall on her way home.
She hasn't been here since she and Chen Jidong opened the store. She just wanted to see how Chen's clothing store is doing.
After walking through the alley, she arrived at the Chen family's first store at the end of West Street, but before she got close, she was surprised to find that the clothing store had changed its sign.
When I got closer, I asked the owner of the next door store and found out that Chen Jidong had already sold the store.
"Xiao Qiao, didn't you marry Boss Chen? How come you didn't know that he sold the store?" The owner of the clothing store next door looked at Qiao Zhixia with curiosity on her face.
"Last time I saw him coming with another woman. They looked very close. You, the boss lady, should be more careful! Men will become bad when they have money."
Qiao Zhixia had no intention of hiding anything and directly told the story of herself, Chen Jidong and Wang Ruqiu.
Several bosses nearby gathered around to watch the excitement.
Everyone suddenly realized, "No wonder there are so many people pointing and talking at the door of Mr. Chen's store recently, but there are only a few people going in to choose clothes."
"That Chen Jidong is really a wicked man. What a girl Xiao Qiaoduo fucked! When she was around, how many businesses on this clothing street bypassed her?"
"That's right. Some men just don't know how to appreciate the good things they have. I've seen the vixen he found before. She looks just like that and she's so coquettish. It's really fucking disgusting."
When Qiao Zhixia heard these old acquaintances criticizing Chen Jidong, she felt happy.
"Thank you very much for your kindness, brothers and sisters. I no longer sell clothes but vegetables. My vegetables are available on Dong'an Street. If you need them, please go to Jingyang Vegetables..."
After escaping from the crowd of enthusiastic people, she still went to the largest store of the Chen family.
Their family lived on the second floor of the store. If nothing unexpected happened, Chen Jidong took Wang Ruqiu to the city to treat his face. Now the one who was looking after the store should be his greedy mother.
Sure enough, she was still standing across the street when she saw her 'ex-mother-in-law' standing in front of the store, craning her neck and looking around.
Obviously, business is not optimistic!
Then she looked around and saw that the shops next door were all full of customers, but her shop was empty. No wonder she was anxious.
Seeing them looking so miserable, she felt relieved.
When he turned around and was about to leave, he ran into an acquaintance head-on - his "former father-in-law" Chen Wen'ge.
"Xiao Qiao, you're here?" Chen Wenge was a little surprised to see Qiao Zhixia, but more of it was embarrassment.
Facing this man who barely treated himself as a human being in the Chen family, Qiao Zhixia didn't know what expression to put on her face for a moment.
But it wasn't that Chen Wen-ge was really good to her. It was just that he was smarter than the mother and son and knew what choice was best for them.
"I went into town to buy some things, so I stopped by to look around and will be leaving soon."
"Alas~ It's my son who is a good-for-nothing. He has let you down!" Chen Wenge lowered his head helplessly and dejectedly.
"It's okay, Uncle Chen. Everything is over. I'll leave first. You and aunt can go about your business!" Qiao Zhixia smiled indifferently, turned around and left gracefully.
Behind him was Chen Wen-ge's heavy sigh.
"Didn't you go out to buy groceries? Why did you come back empty-handed? Don't you know that 꿷꽭 Dongzi and Qiuqiu are coming back?"
As soon as Chen Wenge entered the store, Xia Hongmei started complaining when she saw that he had nothing in his hands.
In her opinion, Wang Ruoqiu was a decent city girl, well-educated and well-mannered. If she married her son, she would be marrying down, so she naturally had to treat her well.
"No, go buy it yourself." Chen Wenge went upstairs with a sullen face.
"No, who are you showing that displeasure to?" Xia Hongmei was already furious about business matters, and she became even angrier when she saw the old man's sour face.
"I will move back to my hometown when Dongzi comes back, and you should stay and mess with them! You don't want to give up your daughter-in-law, but want to treasure a beautiful girl from the city. Sooner or later, this family will be torn apart by you."
Xia Hongmei couldn't believe it. What was he saying?
"I knew your heart was with that Qiao. How can she compare to Qiuqiu? She has no education, no family background. When she was with our Dongzi, people who didn't know her thought that this shop was opened by her, Qiao Zhixia. A woman who loves to show off so much will become wild sooner or later. Qiuqiu is so good, gentle and well-behaved, everyone who sees her will be happy."
"Just do it! When Xiao Qiao was here, she helped us open three stores and managed them in an orderly manner. What about now?"
"How dare you mention that bitch Qiao Zhixia? If it weren't for her, would our daughter have gone to jail? If it weren't for her, would Qiuqiu have hurt her face and needed to sell the store to get treatment? This is all her fault!" Xia Hongmei's roar scared away the only customer who wanted to enter the store.
Chen Wen-ge was too lazy to argue with her because she wouldn't listen to reason when she was angry.
"Just don't regret it later." He said lightly and went upstairs.
Chen Jidong and Wang Ruoqiu returned around six in the afternoon. As soon as they entered the store, someone outside was pointing at them.
"Is this the shop where the boss is having an affair?"
"Now the slut has been brought back. The one next to him is the one!"
"I thought she was so pretty! She's not like us, with two eyes and a mouth. I've seen his previous wife before, she was pretty. What is this man thinking?"
"The shit outside smells so good..."
