Chapter 20 Business Failure Leads to Staying Home and Living Off His Wife



When Lu Wanling got home from get off work that evening, she saw the father and son squatting in the yard, fiddling with a large iron pot.

Although the relationship between the father and son has indeed become very good, Lu Wanling cannot understand why she sees her husband and son fiddling with strange things every day when she comes home.

Yesterday, my husband and son cleaned crayfish when I came home. Today, I saw the father and son working together on a big iron pot.

It's obvious from the appearance of the iron pot that it's new.

After entering the room, Lu Wanling stood there for a while before finally speaking.

"What are you two doing? Where did you get such a new, big iron pot?"

Feng Qifan immediately looked up excitedly and said, "Mom, you're back! Dad said he's going to use this big iron pot to do business. He said he's going to use the big iron pot to cook crayfish and sell them."

Hearing her son's words, Lu Wanling looked at her husband with some surprise: "You're going to make crayfish and sell them on the street? Where do you plan to sell them?"

Feng Haidong looked up at his wife and said, "Of course we should sell them on the street. We can sell them at the night market food stalls at night."

After listening to her husband's words, Lu Wanling thought about it seriously and asked, "You want 20 cases of beer at once? Are you planning to sell them at the night market stalls?"

Feng Haidong nodded and said, "Yes, I was planning to sell it."

At this point, Feng Haidong looked at his son and asked, "Son, do you want to come with Dad?"

Feng Qifan immediately shouted that he wanted to go: "I want to go, I want to go sell crayfish with my dad."

Looking at the father and son, Lu Wanling felt a little amused and exasperated.

"You two, father and son, think you can set up a food stall and do business at the night market?"

Feng Haidong said, "Don't underestimate us. Maybe we'll become an instant hit after we start selling here. If we don't set up our stall anymore, many people will miss us."

Seeing her husband's expression, Lu Wanling really couldn't understand it.

Because in Lu Wanling's memory, her husband had a certain scholarly temperament and was always very concerned about saving face.

But these past two days, my husband seems to have suddenly changed his personality.

On the one hand, he became more tolerant of his son at home, no longer yelling at him casually, but instead reasoning with him more, consciously guiding him and boosting his self-confidence.

On the other hand, the husband surprisingly lowered his standards and even planned to go into business.

These are things that Lu Wanling never dared to imagine her husband would do.

As Lu Wanling watched her husband continue working on the newly bought large iron pot, she went over and told her son to go inside and do his homework.

Although Feng Qifan was somewhat unwilling, he was still quite obedient to his mother, so he went back to his room to do his homework.

After her son went back into the house, Lu Wanling squatted down next to her husband.

Before she could speak, Feng Haidong handed her the small stool he had just sat on.

"Sit down. You must have walked all the way home from get off work. You must be exhausted. Sit down and rest for a bit. After I finish washing this pot, I'll go cook for you and our son."

Lu Wanling originally wanted to decline, but seeing her husband's firm insistence on giving her the small stool to sit on.

She had no choice but to obediently sit down on the small stool.

After sitting down, Lu Wanling said, "Haidong, is it because your factory hasn't had any work lately and you're only getting basic wages, which is putting a lot of pressure on you?"

Feng Haidong looked up at his wife and said with a smile, "Didn't you already ask that?"

Lu Wanling said, "But are you really going to set up a stall at a food stall or night market?"

Feng Haidong said, "Yes, I've already decided. Tomorrow I'll go to the factory and ask Brother Tang to help me get a small cart. Then I'll push the cart there and sell crayfish and beer."

Lu Wanling asked with some concern, "Are you sure you can do it?"

Feng Haidong laughed and said, "What's wrong? Does my wife have so little faith in you?"

Lu Wanling said, "But you've never done this before."

Feng Haidong said, "What does it matter if you haven't done it before? Isn't everyone going from not knowing to knowing in life? If you haven't done it before, just learn how now, and you'll gradually learn how, right?"

Hearing her husband say this, Lu Wanling finally understood that he wasn't joking this time.

Feng Haidong put down what he was holding, squatted down in front of his wife, and said earnestly, "Wife, I've thought it over. Now is the perfect time for us to start a business. Think about it, our factory is still there. Although it's not doing well right now, as long as the factory is still there, I can go to the factory to fill up with liquefied gas."

This way we can save some money. Also, your company now has a large liquor market, so we can buy various liquors from you at a lower price, which will save us even more money.

Listening to her husband's words, Lu Wanling was surprised to find that he had thought so much about it.

Feng Haidong concluded, "With so many conveniences, we only need to pay some capital for raw materials. I'll try selling them first with a pushcart. If the food stall owners there recognize our business, we'll set up a stall there and get started properly."

After listening to her husband's analysis, Lu Wanling also felt that it seemed like she could indeed do this business.

But she still had some worries in her heart.

After all, neither she nor her husband had ever run a business before.

Doing business, especially on the street, is completely different from her husband's identity as a worker.

Lu Wanling was genuinely worried about whether her husband could really make the business successful.

However, Lu Wanling thought about it again and was no longer very worried.

My husband said he would give it a try; if it really didn't work, the worst that could happen was that he would just lose the money for the raw materials.
