Chapter 56 What did you buy?
Seeing Song Hua accept the money, Zheng Wenbin smiled sincerely.
After returning home, Song Hua couldn't wait to put down her things and count the money.
The small bag for money is bulging, and has already attracted many people along the way.
They all fell on the kang, scattered and piled up in a pile.
Song Hua and Nan Nan counted together and finally said, "One hundred and twenty-one dollars and fifty cents! Sister! We actually earned so much!"
Song Rui nodded calmly and wrote down the number in the notebook.
It was their first time setting up a stall, so they prepared very little.
A total of fifty-two copies were sold.
Most of them are odds and ends of eggs and vegetables.
After deducting the costs, I made a net profit of about sixty yuan.
Song Hua counted on her fingers excitedly.
Today we only sold for two hours at noon, and we didn’t prepare enough.
If I sell it at noon and at night, I can make a net profit of more than 3,000 yuan a month!
That’s three thousand dollars.
She is a living person and she only has four thousand yuan.
Song Hua smiled, but her eyes were a little red.
After digesting unnecessary emotions, Song Hua went to the vegetable market again.
Starting tomorrow, she will set up the stall twice.
Marinate the meat to be sold at noon the night before.
Wait until she gets up in the morning and then braise the meat to be sold in the evening.
This way, when I come back in the afternoon, I just need to stew the rice and blanch some vegetables and then I can continue to set up the stall.
Song Hua is full of energy and seems to have endless strength.
But Song Rui felt that this business was still lacking in something.
Setting up the stall twice a day, Song Hua has to be like a little ant, never idle for a moment.
Moreover, pushing the snack cart back and forth meant there were too many people and it was hard to carry them all, so sales were still limited.
The next day, when she followed Song Hua to set up the stall again, she took advantage of the free time and strolled across the street.
There is actually a takeout restaurant on the first floor opposite.
The boss's house has an area of about 60 to 70 square meters and is still occupied. The house looks relatively clean.
The owner of the house was a man who looked honest and called himself Brother Wang. Seeing Song Rui asking, hesitantly quoted a price.
"Eight or eight thousand."
Song Rui didn't rush to say whether it was okay or not, but started chatting with him about family matters.
It turns out that this house was allocated by the unit where Brother Wang’s wife works.
Last fall, his wife suddenly fell ill at work and could not be saved.
He was left with a daughter and his father, and life in the city was not easy, so he simply wanted to sell the house and take the money back to his hometown.
Thinking about having a house and a field in the countryside and having some money, life would be much better.
Song Rui asked, "The company should have given some pension, right? Brother Wang, have you ever thought about finding a job or doing business so that you can continue to stay in the city?"
After all, the education children receive in the countryside is much worse than that in the city, especially in this era.
He is a grown man and looks strong. There is no reason for him to go back to the countryside just because his wife is gone.
If you stay and endure for a few years, life will be better.
But Brother Wang waved his hands again and again, "I, I can't do it. I have only farmed in my life. If it weren't for my wife, I wouldn't have moved to the city."
Seeing that he looked honest and had made up his mind to sell the house, Song Rui started talking about the price.
It's on Dongshan, facing the street, on the first floor but without a yard.
The north window is right next to the road, so cars and people alike pass by the window.
As far as living conditions are concerned, this house is really bad.
Brother Wang obviously knew these shortcomings and the price he gave was fair.
Eight thousand yuan was not enough for Song Rui, so the money Ling Ye gave her before was enough.
Once the goods from Yicheng arrive, Song Rui is confident that she can earn back all the money before the New Year.
After she had made up her mind, she was about to put down the deposit when an old man with white hair and a walking stick appeared out from nowhere.
"No! Eight thousand is not enough. Our house costs at least twelve thousand!"
Song Rui took out the deposit and put it back.
Whether it is eight thousand or twelve thousand, it is cost-effective if it is converted into a shop.
But she doesn't tolerate this habit of raising prices at the last minute.
If she agreed, the price would inevitably become 22,000 in a short while.
Song Rui put away the money, stood up and wanted to leave.
She just doesn't believe that this is the only street where they sell houses.
Seeing that she was about to leave with a sullen face, Brother Wang quickly pulled her back.
"Sister, sister, don't be in a hurry to leave. My father doesn't understand. Let's just follow the agreement..."
"What eight? The store on the second floor sold it for twelve thousand! Why should we only sell it for eight thousand? No way! Absolutely not!"
"Dad! Stop talking!"
Brother Wang pulled Song Rui, bent over with his eyebrows drooping, and said in a negotiating tone, "Sister, let's talk about it. If it's not okay, you can give us a little more. My father is telling the truth. The house upstairs in our house was sold for 12,000 yuan. How about you give us 10,000 yuan?"
"Ten thousand is already cheap for her! In my opinion, it must be twelve thousand!"
Song Rui sneered and pulled her arm out, "No need, I'll go to someone else's house to have a look."
Look at how well they are coordinating and working together. She wouldn't believe that this wasn't discussed in advance.
One is the bad guy and the other is the good guy. She has seen this kind of drama too many times.
She doesn't want to deal with people like this.
When the value of this house increases in the future, they will inevitably come to cause trouble.
Song Rui walked away briskly, not giving them any chance to talk nonsense.
Brother Wang and his father chased her for a few steps, shouting at her to go back, but Song Rui didn't even turn her head.
After going out, Song Rui looked at the street again.
In the twelve years of reform and opening up, many bold and clever people have made money, the gap between the rich and the poor has begun to appear in society, and changing houses has become a common phenomenon.
Although there are only a few commercial housing units today, most of them are allocated by work units.
But the distribution of units also depends on whether it is good or bad.
Who would like to live on the first floor facing the main road?
Anyone who has the means wants to move away.
Song Rui didn't walk far before she saw another store selling something.
This household has moved away, leaving only a landline number.
Song Rui found a public phone and called. After a while, a middle-aged woman dressed fashionably came over.
This family is different from the previous one. The middle-aged woman is called Liu Jie, and she is the workshop director of the fabric factory where this house originally belonged.
But she has already resigned and is now running a small business.
The reason for selling the house was that her son was admitted to a university in the coastal area.
She and her husband went there several times and saw that the development there was much better than that in the Northeast, so they became interested and decided to move their whole family there.
Naturally, all the houses we own will be sold.
Liu Jie is also a businessman, and she was very happy to negotiate the price. She gave a flat price of eight thousand five hundred.
Song Rui went to take a look at the house. It had the common old-style decoration, but fortunately it was clean and upright. More importantly, no one lived on the second floor of this house. It had not even been renovated. It was an empty house with no owner.
This has avoided many disputes among neighbors.
After all, she will open a business in the future.
Song Rui was also happy. Seeing that it was still early, she went home immediately to get her household registration booklet and money, and went to the Housing Authority with Liu Jie to transfer the ownership of the property.
Song Hua took Nan Nan to sell the goods, and when she saw that Nan Nan hadn't come back yet, she became a little anxious.
Just as I was wondering where this person had gone, Song Rui got out of the taxi with a big smile on her face.
"Sister, where have you been? We were both worried sick."
Song Rui smiled and said, "I didn't do anything, I just bought a house."
Song Hua tilted her head in confusion.
Her sister asked, what did you buy?
