Chapter 202: Changing Another Destiny Line
"Jingyu, didn't Ai Li also open a store? Why doesn't she have any business?"
After lunch, Tong Guixiang, who was tidying up the table, asked her eldest daughter-in-law.
Seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law's business was so good, but the younger daughter-in-law had no business, Tong Guixiang was worried.
Compared with her eldest son's family who have good living conditions, her younger son's family has not had any improvement, which has always been a concern for her as a mother.
“I can’t explain this clearly.”
"Dad, has my aunt opened a Taobao store as well?"
Zhou Anan, who was sitting in the living room, asked in surprise after vaguely hearing what her grandmother said.
He hadn't heard much about it during his previous phone calls with his parents, but it was normal when he thought about it.
In the countryside, it is normal for a wealthy family to lead its relatives to engage in the same industry.
Taobao is such a vast market that as long as there is no malicious price war for the same products, adding one more store will have no impact at all.
"It's newly opened, and we sell thermos cups and small fans, but there's not much business."
After taking a bite of ice watermelon, Zhou Youliang briefly explained the situation.
After listening, Zhou Anan nodded thoughtfully.
Although the products sold in my aunt's store are similar to those in my mother's, the brands are different and the prices are more favorable than theirs. However, because it is a newly opened store, there is almost no business, with only two or three orders a day.
Given my aunt's lazy personality, she probably wants to back out.
In the past two years, my uncle has been driving a tractor to transport stones in a quarry. With my father's care, his income is much higher than those of his peers, at least 40,000 to 50,000 yuan a year. Compared with the average living standard of Lizhou people, it is already very good.
But a few years later, Zhou Anan realized clearly that her uncle had not saved any money at all.
Firstly, my uncle is a straightforward person and often invites friends to dinner; secondly, my aunt loves to enjoy herself and does not have a stable job.
If one person earns money and three people spend it, there will naturally be no money left.
This is why those people who also transported stones built new houses a few years later, while my uncle's family is still living in the old house.
“It still needs to change.”
Although Zhou Anan couldn't stand her uncle and aunt's living habits, they were her direct relatives after all, and she couldn't just stand by and watch.
The most important thing is that this may concern grandpa's future.
The school store temporarily changed the fate of his uncle, but Zhou Anan was worried about his grandfather's fate.
As long as grandparents still live in the old house and there are few people at home, the tragedy of two years ago may happen again.
Now my cousin Zhou Shun’s work is on track, but it is almost impossible to rebuild the old house within two years.
The only breakthrough may lie with my uncle and aunt.
Otherwise, unless the old house is renovated, my grandparents would never move no matter what.
Furthermore, even if it is not possible to renovate the old house, the old house cannot be left empty.
The last time, because there was no one at home to look after him, grandpa's blood pressure rose when he got up from a nap and walked to the door of the room. He fell down and no one noticed, so there was nothing that could be done to save him. Only a few deep scratches were left on the wooden door.
Zhou Anan clearly remembers that when she was a senior, she took a bus back from school overnight and looked at her grandfather who was lying on the intensive care bed with many tubes inserted. She cried as she watched the doctor remove the equipment.
At that time, my grandfather, unable to open his eyes, shed tears and passed away weakly.
Whenever Zhou Anan thought about this, she couldn't let it go.
In this life, Zhou Anan would never let this incident happen again.
"Mom, has my aunt's shop been upgraded?"
When her mother finished washing the dishes and put them into the sterilizer, Zhou Anan asked.
"Not yet. Your aunt is reluctant to spend the money."
“.”
After a full meal, one naturally needs to digest the food. Zhou Anan strolled to the Daming Hall and casually came to her uncle's house.
Coincidentally, my uncle, who had just returned from work, was also at home eating.
Simple, green vegetables, tofu and a scrambled egg.
"Uncle, aunt."
"An An, when did you come back? Have you had lunch? Do you want to eat something?"
Zhou Youfa is still very enthusiastic towards his eldest nephew.
"No, no, I just ate at home."
After chatting for a while, Zhou Anan casually glanced at the computer in the room and asked, "Aunt, have you opened a Taobao store too?"
"Yes, your aunt spent several thousand dollars to buy computers and thousands of dollars to purchase goods, but now there is no business. If you ask me, your aunt is not destined to open a store. The supermarket our family ran before didn't go bankrupt."
When it comes to this issue, Zhou Youfa is obviously more excited than his wife, and his words are full of complaints.
After paying a little attention to her aunt's expression, Zhou Anan resisted the urge to follow suit and said tactfully, "That shouldn't be the case. It's very easy to open a Taobao store now. My mom upgraded the store level, and business got better."
"Ally, has your store level been upgraded?"
After hearing what his nephew said, Zhou Youfa asked his wife in confusion.
"It costs 1,600 to upgrade the store, and I haven't decided yet."
Li Aili was unable to refute her husband's words, and her defense was also weak.
After hearing what her aunt said, Zhou Anan was unable to complain and could not help but sigh at the soaring prices.
It seems that he fooled my mother last year and said it was 100 yuan, but in fact it was only 800 yuan. Now the price has doubled.
The only good thing is that the other party provides free store decoration services, which is actually just a simple modification of the page.
"I've already invested nearly 5,000 or 6,000 yuan, and I still need 1,600 yuan. An An, I'll give you the money, and you help me upgrade the store."
Unexpectedly, his wife was so petty. Zhou Youfa generously took out the freight he had just brought back from the construction site today, counted out 16 bills and handed them to his nephew.
"alright."
Zhou Anan successfully persuaded her uncle to invest, and after some operation on the computer, it was done.
In past and present lives, Zhou Anan, who knows her uncle's character, can easily find a breakthrough point.
Plan the first step and complete it easily.
Of course, the blacksmith must be strong himself.
In addition to the store level, Zhou Anan asked her aunt to take a look at a product that will be very popular in the next two years - the Haoshen Mop.
In the next two years, among the popular TV shopping advertisements, the Haoshentuo was the most popular practical product.
It is better not to sell fake chains that wholesale at a few cents each but are sold for hundreds of dollars.
As for whether you can get the Haoshenmo product, that would be underestimating the wisdom of the people of Lizhou.
In order to keep her aunt's shop running for a long time, Zhou Anan has put in a lot of effort.
"I have a few more buses this afternoon, so I'll take some time tomorrow morning to go with you. An An, thank you for your help."
Zhou Youfa attached great importance to the opinion of his eldest nephew, a college student, and decided to handle it in the afternoon.
"You're welcome."
After the work was done, Zhou An decided on a general direction. Whether he could make money depended on his aunt's management.
If we continue to follow his line of thought, at the very least we will have at least a few orders a day.
If it really doesn't work, Zhou Anan can't help but reveal some of her wealth and build a new house for her uncle and aunt for free, but that would cause a lot of trouble.
After being reborn, Zhou Anan likes the sense of control that subtly changes the surroundings.
"Phew, luckily it was just a dream"
After staying at home for one night, smelling the familiar scent of sunshine, Zhou Anan woke up from her dream covered in sweat, with tears still in the corners of her eyes.
In his dream, he found that he still could not change his grandfather's fate, and he burst into tears.
The electric fan was blowing overhead. Zhou Anan touched his sticky arms and couldn't fall asleep anymore.
Looking at the time, it was only half past five in the morning, so Zhou Anan got up and went out for a run.
When I came back, my mother was cooking breakfast.
"The young man is so diligent. If he had been like this earlier, he would have been taller."
“.”
Facing his mother's praise, Zhou Anan wanted to say that if he had not taken too much Longmu Zhuanggu Granules when he was a child, he would definitely not have developed so slowly.
Among them, there is also genetic inheritance from my father.
Just like my uncle's family, my uncle is 176cm tall and my cousin Zhou Shun is so lazy, he is 178cm tall. There is nothing to complain about.
Of course, there is no need to say this out loud. Just think about it in your heart so that your mother won’t be sad when she hears it.
Once I tell my dad about this, a battle between father and son is about to begin.
After taking a shower, having breakfast and looking at the busy scene, Zhou Anan helped for an hour and then expressed that he didn't care whether he was interested in this not-so-busy job.
After saying something to her mother, Zhou Anan slipped away openly.
After enjoying the artificial sauna again, Zhou Anan got off the urban-rural bus and took a taxi directly to Jinshui Bay. She had no intention of slowly appreciating the Lizhou city area.
"It's still so comfortable."
After taking a shower, lying in the hall with central air conditioning on, pouring a cup of hot tea, and looking down at the scenery in the distance, Zhou Anan said that this is life.
"Son, where are you? Let's go choose an air conditioner."
Before Zhou Anan had enough rest, his mother called him, making him regret the rude words he said when he left home in the morning.
