Chapter 158: Earning more than two hundred dollars a day, how scary is that?
He sat at the head of the bed and sighed, while Liu Guizhi and Xu Dongmei continued to laugh in the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with your Xiulan's brain? How did she invent this thing called sweet plum powder?"
"Who would have known? Just two days after selling noodles, she came up with sweet plum noodles. I've never heard of this thing before, but I didn't expect it to be so popular."
"That's right. I'm going to town tomorrow and will buy some of your fries to try. Remember to give me some more."
"That's for sure. We are all family. How can I let you down?"
Xu Dongmei's hands were quick and she finished sewing the insole quickly. She then wrapped up the remaining thread and put it back into her pocket.
"Sister-in-law, how come your Xiulan can make money no matter what she does?"
"How is this sweet plum powder made? Can you tell me so I can open a shop when I get home?"
This is her real purpose for coming here.
She had been chatting with Liu Guizhi for such a long time, but she had never been able to speak. But now that the soles of the shoes had been sewn, if she didn't say anything, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?
So I shamelessly mentioned it, pretending to be joking.
She thought that Liu Guizhi might not agree, and even thought of a way out.
But she never expected that Liu Guizhi was extremely happy when she heard that she wanted to sell sweet plum powder.
"You want to sell sweet potato starch?"
"OK!"
"Of course, but I can't give you the formula. I can provide you with the supply."
Xu Dongmei: "What does this mean?"
Liu Guizhi took off the apron around her waist and moved a stool to sit down.
"Back in the New Year, my sister-in-law heard that my family was making money and wanted to join us."
"My daughter opened a franchise store for her, and now she's making a lot of money."
"What is a franchise store?"
"We were responsible for producing the seasonings, and she used the money to buy from our store, then sold them in hers, making a profit from the difference."
Xu Dongmei was worried: "Can I make money with that?"
Liu Guizhi leaned back and straightened her back. "We just earn hard-earned money. We have to get the formula and packaging right. It all depends on the volume. In the end, whoever opens a store gets the lion's share."
"Besides, they sell more than just sweet potato starch. They also sell a lot of sauces, French fries, disposable tableware, and everything else!"
Xu Dongmei put her hands into her sleeves, feeling a little excited, and stretched her neck a little further.
"How do you sell so much? How do you make the sauce? And the disposable tableware, do you make them all yourself?"
Liu Guizhi waved her hand. "No, I made the sauce myself, and the tableware is from a tableware factory! Tableware is a must. It's very convenient for storing French fries. We use it while selling them."
"Oh..." Xu Dongmei began to think.
Liu Guizhi added, "During the New Year, two more franchise stores opened in our town, and they made over 200 yuan in profit that day."
Hearing this number, Xu Dongmei's eyes lit up with excitement. "Two hundred? That's so much!!!"
She never imagined that she could make so much money just by selling sweet potatoes and seasonings.
She really wanted to join now.
"What happened? Tell me in detail."
Liu Guizhi also put her hands into her sleeves and pretended to be sophisticated: "Then you just find a store, decorate it, and then I will give you the seasonings and you can sell them."
"I won't charge you any money on the first day. I'll settle accounts with you when you make money. You see, we still have security."
At this time, Xu Dongmei was completely immersed in the dream of earning two hundred yuan a day.
Earning two hundred yuan a day means six thousand yuan a month, and at least sixty thousand yuan a year. It only takes two months to become a millionaire.
But the arrival of Liang Xiulan shattered her dream of becoming a millionaire.
Liang Xiulan came to discuss the matter of planting sweet potatoes with Liu Guizhi.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, Xu Dongmei pulled her excitedly.
"Lanlan, can your shop really make over 200 yuan a day?"
Liang Xiulan looked at Liu Guizhi suspiciously. What did she say to her?
Liu Guizhi casually explained, "Well...your aunt wanted to make money, so I told her to open a franchise store. I'm telling her that right here."
Liang Xiulan said "oh", poured herself a glass of water and sat down at the table.
“It’s not certain that I can make 200 yuan a day, but I can make over 100 yuan in the first few days of opening.
The rest of the time, if it’s not a holiday, I only make a few dozen yuan a day.”
"Dozens?"
"About forty or fifty."
Forty or fifty yuan is equivalent to a laborer's monthly salary in the factory.
Even if it was only forty or fifty, Xu Dongmei would be happy.
"Forty or fifty is fine! Help my aunt run a shop."
Liang Xiulan took a sip of water and asked her, "Where do you want to open the store?"
"Where else could it be? In our town."
Liang Xiulan pursed her lips, her expression slightly difficult.
"It's not impossible, but there are already two spice shops in our town, plus mine, that makes three."
“Business probably won’t be very good then.”
"Then what do you say we should do? Why can you open it but I can't?"
"It's not that you can't drive, it's that you should drive somewhere else, not in this town."
"Huh... so what you said, I have to go far away to make money."
Liang Xiulan looked at her teasingly.
"That depends on your determination to make money. Some people even go abroad to make money, and when they come back they make hundreds of thousands. The further you go, the more you earn."
Xu Dongmei smacked her lips and fell into deep thought.
Why is it that what is so easy for others is so difficult for her?
I looked at the time and it was getting late, so I stretched, lifted my butt off the stool and stood up.
"Okay, you guys have been building the house all day, you should rest early. I won't bother you here anymore. I'm leaving now."
Liu Guizhi stood up to see him off: "Won't you sit for a while?"
"No, I have to get up early tomorrow to cook, and the kids have to go to school."
"Okay, go ahead."
He walked the person to the door, bolted it, and then came back.
Liang Xiulan said, "Mom...don't tell anyone else that you can make over 200 yuan a day. It's just a spice shop, it's not that scary."
Liu Guizhi said indifferently, "Well...it's just a small talk. I didn't swear to her, and she didn't agree to open it."
"It's all in vain if all the talk goes in vain."
Liang Xiulan didn't continue her conversation and told her that she was planning to grow sweet potatoes on a large scale.
He also said that if the land on the mountain cannot be cultivated, then we can contract some land that is easier to cultivate.
Whenever her daughter has an idea, Liu Guizhi will definitely be the first to support her.
But she refused to contract the land. Leaving her own land uncultivated and contracting someone else's? Isn't that stupid?
I discussed this matter with Liang Jianguo at night.
Liang Jianguo put the difficulties first.
"There are so many sweet potatoes, how can we plant them right away? We don't have the manpower, and we're still building a house."
“If it were up to me, I’d go door to door and collect sweet potatoes. Then your neighbors would thank you.
It's such a simple thing, why do you have to do this and that, and exhaust yourself to death."
Liu Guizhi knew the condition of her family's land, but if she didn't want to cause so much trouble, she still had to farm it herself.
After thinking for a long time, he said, "Why don't I ask my brother to come and help us plant the land. As for watering the dry land, we can just drive a tricycle to fetch water for it ourselves."
"Why don't we just call someone to collect the harvest when it's time? We have plenty of laborers at home."
Liang Jianguo smacked his lips, looking annoyed.
"Oh... there's so much land. Why did you call your brother over? Isn't he working? And his children are also working."
"Besides, doesn't my family have land? Do you feel bad about constantly bothering me like this?"
Liu Guizhi sat up suddenly. "Why should I be embarrassed about that? I can just settle the wages when the time comes. It's better than hiring outsiders, right?"
"One word from me, and my brother will come!"
"We in the Liu family are not like you in the Liang family. We don't help at all and we only harm our own people. Humph!"
Liang Jianguo curled his lips in annoyance, turned around with his butt sticking out, and said, "You are the only one who can do it. Do whatever you want. I don't care!"
