But there is no refrigerator at this time, so I’m afraid it will go bad. Fortunately, the weather is getting cooler now, so I don’t have to worry about the hot pot base I just made going bad.
Li Mu only needs to find Brother Shen and his friends at the place where he met them last time tomorrow, then go back to the village to get some vegetables and fresh fish and try to set up a stall for business.
In order to make the hot pot base, it was already evening and it was too late to cook. Li Mu simply scooped out a spoonful of the prepared hot pot base and prepared to make hot pot today.
But thinking that Ruoruo couldn’t finish it, I decided to fry a tomato base for Ruoruo myself.
When Li Mu had finished all the preparations and asked Lin Wan to call Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang walked into the yard holding Ruoruo in one hand and holding a few big buns in the other.
"Xiao Mu, Wan Wan, you must be hungry after working so long."
The two of them looked up at the same time and saw big hot buns being served in front of them. He smiled and said at the same time: "Thank you, Aunt Wang."
Li Mu immediately said, "I was just about to call you, Auntie, please sit down and try my new product, hot pot."
Aunt Wang looked at the various vegetables and meats on the table and asked curiously, "What is this? Is this the hot pot base that Wanwan mentioned today?"
"Yes, Aunt Wang, you try it, it's not bad. And give me some advice." Li Mu said with a smile.
...
...
Aunt Wang walked to the table, put down the big buns, and was about to refuse, but Li Mu said directly: "Aunt, you are my second customer, please help me try it and see how it tastes."
After hearing what Li Mu said, Aunt Wang couldn't refuse and could only agree.
Aunt Wang kept praising the hotpot made by Li Mu while eating it, which made Li Mu feel embarrassed and he wished he could set up a stall tomorrow.
Li Mu stayed by the side and watched the three people happily eating. He felt that his current life was very good.
If I didn't have a second life, I would never be able to experience the feeling I have now.
————————
After eating, Lin Wan carried Ruoruo back to her room to sleep, and Li Mu sent Aunt Wang back next door.
As soon as they reached the gate of the yard, Aunt Wang pulled Li Mu aside and said:
"Xiao Mu, you should be more careful when setting up a stall in the future and don't get into conflict with others, got it? You have changed now and should be nicer to Xiao Wan. It has not been easy for Xiao Wan over the years."
Li Mu nodded and kept it all in mind.
Seeing Li Mu like this, Aunt Wang didn't say much and turned back into the house. Before leaving, she said, "If you are too busy, just send Ruoruo over here. I can help you take care of her."
Seeing Aunt Wang being so good to him, Li Mu kept it in mind. No matter what happened, he would always be kind to Aunt Wang.
After returning home, Lin Wan pulled Li Mu aside and asked if there was anything else they needed to prepare for setting up the stall and whether he wanted her help. Li Mu shook his head, indicating that he knew what he was doing.
When Lin Wan saw Li Mu like this, she just said, "Then you take care of it. If you are too busy, I'll be there for you."
Li Mu felt warm inside after hearing this.
——————————-
The next morning, Li Mu saw the three thousand yuan of money that Lin Wan had prepared for him on the table. He put it solemnly in his chest pocket and went to the kitchen to check the hot pot base that he had made yesterday.
Looking at the already formed hot pot base, which was all divided into blocks, I prepared to go out to buy some oil paper bags to pack them all, and by the way, go to the place where I rented a car last time to find Brother Shen and the others to talk about future delivery matters.
When Li Mu walked to the breakfast shop, he did not see Brother Shen and his friends. Li Mu asked the owner of the breakfast stall with some confusion and learned that Brother Shen and his friends usually waited at the intersection of the street ahead for guests to see off.
So Li Mu bought a few big meat buns from the stall owner and headed in the direction the stall was pointing.
Li Mu walked around the street several times but didn't see the two people. He had no choice but to find a place to sit and wait. After an unknown amount of time, a familiar car stopped not far away.
Li Mu walked forward impatiently, and when he saw Brother Shen, he immediately said, "Why didn't you go to Auntie's to eat today? I didn't see you guys when I went there early this morning."
When Brother Shen saw Li Mu, he looked worried. He sighed and said, "Oh, don't mention it. Something happened at home, so I came out late today."
"Brother Shen, I have a business I want to discuss with you. Are you interested?"
Li Mu raised his eyebrows and said.
Hearing what Li Mu said, Brother Shen became interested and immediately said, "There is no business now anyway, so you can talk first."
"It's like this. I'm going to set up a stall soon, and I may need you to help me bring some food from Qingshui Village. I'll give you 500 yuan a month, and it won't interfere with your business. I'll deliver it around 4pm every day. The money for you delivering the eels to me as agreed before is separate."
Li Mu had this idea and thought about it for a whole night before deciding on the price, so he said.
When Brother Shen heard that Li Mu would give him 500 yuan just for helping to deliver the vegetables, he was very tempted. It would not affect his business and he could also earn an extra 500 yuan, so he agreed without thinking.
"Okay, Brother Shen, do you have a pager? Give me your number so we can contact each other later. If you can take me back to Qingshui Village later, I'll give you 20 yuan to help me find some goods."
Li Mu said to Brother Shen.
Brother Shen dug out a piece of paper and pen from the car and handed it to Li Mu. He said a little embarrassedly, "I can't write. Since you are an educated person, I will read to you and you can write. Please get in the car first."
Li Mu sat in the passenger seat without hesitation.
"52228."
Li Mu quickly wrote down something on a piece of paper and put it in his pocket. After preparing to bring the ingredients back, he immediately went to the mall to buy three pagers, one for Lin Wan, one for himself, and one for Zhou Qiang for easy contact.
Along the way, Li Mu learned from chatting with Brother Shen that his mother-in-law had been in poor health recently and wanted to buy some Polygonum multiflorum for nourishment. Although sports cars can make money, Brother Shen is really helpless about such an expensive item and is worried about it.
Li Mu didn't say anything when he heard it, but he remembered that there were still two small Polygonum multiflorum at home that had not been sold, and he would sell one to Brother Shen at a low price when the time comes.
Driving is still much faster than taking a bus. There is no need to stop and go along the way. Li Mu arrived in less than an hour. After entering the village and telling the village chief what ingredients he wanted, he took Brother Shen to find Zhou Qiang.
The three of them had a very pleasant chat. Li Mu could feel from the conversation that Brother Shen was a very honest person, and he had some plans for him in his mind.
By the time Li Mu had gathered all the things, it only took him three hours to reach the town. He gave twenty yuan to Brother Shen and asked him to deliver the things to his home.
Li Mu went to the mall and walked to the counter selling pagers. Before he even asked, the teller enthusiastically introduced it to him.
In fact, what Li Mu didn't know was that when he walked over here, the teller noticed him and was already fascinated by his handsome appearance.
