"Mom, the revenue from this week is only 500 yuan? How can you say that?"
After Chen Jidong came back, he and Xia Hongmei checked the sales revenue of the past few days and then counted the inventory to see what goods they needed to purchase.
Little did they know that during the ten days they were away, the store had a total business of 500 yuan, but after deducting various expenses and living expenses, there was no profit at all.
When Qiao Zhixia was here, I would sometimes sell goods worth 500 yuan a day.
The contrast is simply horrible.
Xia Hongmei got angry at her son's scrutiny and suspicion: "This business is so good, what can I do? If someone passes by and comes in, I can always drag them in, right?"
Chen Jidong felt annoyed. The crowds on this clothing street were huge, but the competition was really fierce!
When Qiao Zhixia was around, he never worried about having no business, but now he felt uncertain.
"Brother Dong, don't worry. Business is urgent. I will work hard with you, and everything will be fine." Wang Ruoqiu saw that the atmosphere was right, and immediately stepped forward to comfort him with understanding.
After the repair treatment, her face has recovered to about 100%. Although there are no obvious marks as before, if you look closely, the adhesion part at the corner of the eye has not changed at all.
Her face could never be restored to its original state.
Chen Jidong felt relieved and held her in his arms affectionately. "I know Qiuqiu is the best. I want to marry you home right away. Are you willing to marry me?"
Facing his sudden proposal, Wang Ruoqiu was stunned for a moment, hiding the embarrassment in her eyes.
After all, this is far from my ideal proposal scene.
"I..." Wang Ruoqiu hesitated for a moment, then turned around and saw a familiar figure in front of the noodle shop opposite.
The man had a cigarette in his mouth, his hands in his pockets, and was staring at her with narrowed eyes!
She suddenly became nervous and avoided his sight guiltily.
"Brother Dong, don't worry about getting married. I still want to get my parents' blessing first!"
When Xia Hongmei heard Wang Ruoqiu mention her parents, she immediately smiled and said, "Yes, yes, marriage is a big deal! My parents-in-law should know about it."
"My mom is right! Qiuqiu, what do your parents like? Do you want me to buy some gifts and visit them in the provincial capital?"
Wang Ruoqiu told the Chen family that her father was a director-level official in the provincial capital's Labor Bureau, and her mother was a middle school teacher. They were a typical highly educated family.
Her family strictly taught her that she must find a partner who is of equal social status.
But she was so devoted to Chen Jidong that she even broke up with her parents.
After his rebirth, Chen Jidong decisively chose Wang Ruoqiu. He was determined to repair the relationship between Wang Ruoqiu and her parents.
After all, there was no other girl in the world who loved him as much as his Qiuqiu.
His Qiuqiu missed the college entrance examination for him, fought against her parents, and even faked her death when she left so that he would forget her as soon as possible.
Thinking about how he had missed such a treasure because of a money-hungry woman like Qiao Zhixia, he regretted it.
He must hold such a good girl in his hands and cherish her.
Wang Ruoqiu knew what he was thinking, and he found an excuse and left the store in a hurry.
She came to the small park diagonally across the clothing street. The man whom she pushed off the window sill of the guesthouse last time was sitting on a cool chair waiting for her.
"Zhuang Shengli, I gave you all my money, why are you here again?"
Zhuang Shengli smiled wickedly:
"Don't worry, I'm impressed by your current face. As for the little money you gave me, I don't have much left after paying the medical bills. If you want me to completely disappear from your and Chen Jidong's lives, give me a thousand dollars and we'll be even."
Wang Ruoqiu got angry when he heard this: "How can you say that? I've already given you two thousand. You just sprained your ankle. Why do you need so much money?"
She had flirted with Zhuang Shengli and asked him to come from the provincial capital to pick her up. Zhuang Shengli's family was working class and their financial situation was average.
But who made Wang Ruoqiu beautiful, petite and soft and able to coax men, so he came.
But instead of picking him up, he was pushed off the windowsill and nearly broke his leg.
When he saw his former 'goddess' again, her face had been ruined, and although it was extremely ugly, she was no longer as beautiful as before.
Wang Ruoqiu knew that she had already missed many choices in her current situation, so she might as well hold on to Chen Jidong.
After all, Chen Jidong's devotion to her has never changed.
So she managed to get 2,000 yuan from Chen Jidong in an attempt to get rid of Zhuang Shengli. Zhuang Shengli agreed at the time, but she didn't expect that he would come again after only one month.
Zhuang Shengli looked like a dead pig afraid of being boiled in boiling water, and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, this is the last time. Give me 1,000 and I'll get out of here right away. Of course... you know. If that idiot Chen Jidong knew, your father is just an ordinary worker in the provincial capital, and your mother is just a food worker in the middle school cafeteria. You've had several lovers before, do you think he will still want you?"
"You..." Wang Ruoqiu clenched his fists tightly.
"Give me some time, I'll think of a solution. After all, a thousand dollars is not a small amount."
"Okay, I'll give you a week. Chen Jidong's family is worth at least 10,000 yuan. Don't play tricks on me..."
Qiao Zhixia entrusted the store decoration to Uncle Gao. When Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao learned that she was going to open a store, they were naturally happy for her and promised to do it according to her requirements.
During the time when the store was being renovated, she continued to go to the city to sell her Jingyang vegetables.
That day, she brought two thousand kilograms of tomatoes and two thousand kilograms of white radishes to the market where she had set up her stall before.
This time it went much more smoothly than before. As soon as the stall was set up, a large number of customers rushed in to buy.
Regular customers have found that her radishes are effective in reducing internal heat and removing dryness, and tomatoes are surprisingly delicious whether eaten raw or cold, and can even be considered a high-end fruit.
Some of those rushing to eat were old customers who had eaten Jingyang cuisine before, and some just came over to join in the fun.
But in just over two hours, her dishes were already selling much worse.
늀When she was about to move to the next place, a middle-aged man in a suit stood in front of her with a smile on his face.
"Hello, Ms. Journalist! I am the purchasing manager of Yonghui Food Processing Factory. My last name is Wang."
"Hello, Manager Wang, what can I do for you?" Qiao Zhixia anticipated something when she heard the visitor's self-introduction.
Manager Wang got straight to the point: "Our food factory is very interested in your Jingyang vegetables. Last time, our factory director bought two Jingyang tomatoes and found that your tomatoes are very juicy and very suitable for producing high-quality tomato sauce."
Qiao Zhixia smiled calmly: "So your factory wants to..."
"We know how many tomatoes of this kind you have. We want to buy a batch as raw materials and process them into sauces. If the sales are good, we can cooperate with you for a long time."
"How much do you want?"
"Tentatively, 5,000 kilograms. Do you know if there is any discount on the price?"
Qiao Zhixia curled her lips, her attitude gentle and calm: "If your factory marks the packaging materials as Jingyang tomatoes, I can give you a profit of one cent. I'm sure Manager Wang can see that. My Jingyang vegetables are worried about having no market..."
