Chapter 27: Ceiling fans can be priced...
Chapter 27
It is not uncommon for a shop to be rented by two tenants.
One family uses it during the day and the other uses it at night.
This is what Lin Mujin meant, but the rent cannot be shared equally, and we are not stupid.
Boss Feng understood, "You are planning to put some things in my shop tonight."
Lin Mujin gave a thumbs up, "Boss Feng is wise!"
If you want to bargain, you should first give them a compliment.
Boss Feng smiled and said, "Aren't you looking to rent a warehouse?"
Lin Mujin immediately understood what Boss Feng meant. How could she have the nerve to pay him only a hundred dollars a month for the warehouse when the rent was so high?
"There are probably just two bicycles and a four-wheeled vehicle, nothing else. It won't contaminate the clothes in the shop with bad smells."
Boss Feng asked again, "Can I push everything away when I open the door in the morning? Won't that affect my closing time?"
Lin Mujin paused, because it might be late at night. "It's okay in the morning, but it has to be later in the evening, after dinner time."
Boss Feng waved his hand, "That's not possible for me. I can leave work one or two days later, but not every day."
Lin Mujin scratched her head, thinking that she had not thought it through.
As for asking Boss Feng for the key, she had never even thought about it.
Even if Boss Feng was willing to give it to her, she wouldn't take it because she couldn't take the responsibility.
Don’t think that sewing shops don’t have valuable things. Many fabrics are not cheap.
Boss Feng smiled and said, "You can ask our landlord. She has a wide network of contacts and may be able to help you find a cheap warehouse."
Lin Mujin smiled awkwardly, she was being manipulated.
Forget it, just pretend you didn’t understand.
He waved to Boss Feng and said, "See you tomorrow!"
When I went to Cousin Lin's place, I saw two sewn quilts and picked them up directly. "I'll carry them upstairs first."
Lin Mujin put quilt covers on the quilt, one was hers and the other was her cousin's.
Turn the quilt cover over, align the four corners, and then flip it over. It is easy to do by one person.
Her bed has changed a lot now.
She put all the old bedding at the bottom of the bed, on top of which was a new mattress weighing four pounds, then a mat wrapped with a new border, and on top of that was an old coarse cloth that had been rinsed with water.
Now I have a new quilt, which matches perfectly.
The pillowcases are also new, with the same pattern as the quilt cover, which makes it more harmonious and beautiful.
Unfortunately, the pillow core is old, which is a bit of a flaw.
“I’ll replace it with a new one sooner or later…”
Lin Mujin couldn't help but mutter.

Time flies and it is Sunday.
Cousin Lin started making hot dough early in the morning. In order to do this, she got up in the middle of the night to prepare the batter and starch paste.
Why didn’t we make it the night before? Of course it’s because we didn’t have a refrigerator. If it was at room temperature, the batter would have gone sour.
Lin Muli was the most enthusiastic and ate two bowls in one go.
He was about to eat more when Lin Mujin stopped him, "Alright, overeating is bad for your health. I've already eaten the hot noodles. Give me a review?"
Lin Muli reluctantly put down the bowl and gave a thumbs up, "It's delicious!"
Lin Mujin then asked, "How much do you think a bowl of hot noodles would cost? In other words, how much would be more attractive to you?"
Lin Muli quickly replied, "No money!"
Seeing that the elder sister was about to raise her hand to slap him, she immediately changed her words and said, "Eight yuan."
Lin Mujin became interested and asked, "How did you get the price?"
Lin Muli explained, "The clear soup noodles at the noodle stall are only eight yuan a bowl. They're cheap and large, so many people like them. This hot noodle is delicious... but the portion is small. It's too expensive, so I probably won't buy it."
Cousin Lin said from the side, "One bowl is enough for girls, and we can add more toppings."
Cousin Lin was more thoughtful and said, "Let's not rush into pricing yet. Let's look at the cost first."
"Sister, there is still one bowl left." Lin Muli meant that he wanted to eat more.
Lin Mujin glared at him and said, "This bowl is for someone else."
This was suggested by cousin Lin, as she seemed to have disturbed the neighbor by getting up early.
Besides, other people's kitchens are rarely used, so they are getting a great deal, so it's only right for them to take the initiative.
"Sister, come with me (deliver hot noodles)."
Cousin Lin had been curious for a long time, so she naturally agreed.
The two of them stood at the neighbor's door, feeling a little awkward.
Lin Mujin subconsciously looked at her clothes: a casual T-shirt and cropped pants.
It’s not a brand name, but it’s comfortable and clean, that’s enough.
Lin Mujin was holding a bowl, so it was cousin Lin who knocked on the door.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
There was a gentle knock on the door.
Lin Mujin was afraid that no one in the house heard it.
“Who is it?”
This is heard.
Lin Mujin replied, "Hello, we are neighbors next door."
The door was opened, and Lin Mujin confirmed that it was the beautiful girl at the corridor entrance.
With a smile on her face, she handed over the bowl, "My name is Lin Mujin, and this is my elder sister, Lin Muqi. I'm sorry to bother you today because of something at home. This is a little gift for you."
The beauty was probably still asleep, and was confused for a moment, but soon she smiled and said, "My name is Li Xiuying, it's okay, I'm just a light sleeper."
Still, he took the bowl, "Thank you."
Cousin Lin added, "This is dough. It can't be kept for long. Eat it as soon as possible."
The beauty thanked him again, "This bowl?"
Lin Mujin said, "Just put it in the kitchen. We won't bother you anymore. See you later."
The beauty nodded, "See you later."
Cousin Lin nudged Lin Muli and said, "Her name is Li Xiuying, and it's a pretty nice name."
Lin Mujin wanted to tease her, wondering if her cousin was paying too much attention to her. Could it be that they were destined to be a lesbian couple?
But then I thought that my cousin probably didn't even know the meaning of "lily", so I lost interest.
The two sisters went to do their own things. It was too early to go out because the shops they wanted to go to were not open.
Lin Mujin naturally went to finish the manuscript. Since she had to be outside for most of the day, the time she spent on writing would be greatly shortened.
But there is no need to be afraid, as she has saved some manuscripts.

Cousin Lin pushed the bicycle, and Cousin Lin carried the washing machine up and down the stairs. Lin Mujin followed behind with her hands in her pockets.
As for Lin Muli, he had already gone to the Chinese medicine shop, but he also went there with a mission.
The first stop for the three siblings was an electrical appliance repair station.
It wasn’t the store where Lin Mujin wanted to buy a second-hand typewriter; it was too far away.
They found it nearby and heard that it had a good reputation.
Cousin Lin knows a little bit about it and is discussing it with the boss.
Lin Mujin and cousin Lin were both at a loss for words.
I just wandered around the repair shop and browsed Taobao.
You know what, I actually saw something usable.
The electric fan is not a floor-standing one, but a ceiling fan embedded in the roof.
"Sister, take a look."
Cousin Lin squatted down and looked at it carefully. "It looks quite new. I don't know if it can be used."
The boss was very observant and attentive. "It works! I put three fans together to make it. It will definitely work."
Lin Mujin and cousin Lin looked at each other and understood what the other meant. They decided to ask about the price.
