Chapter 973 (Page 1/2)
Song Jingjing was really feeling a bit overwhelmed at this moment. She had gone to Yangcheng to purchase goods before, and her mother stayed to help her look after the store.
Her mother had even loaned her an extra two thousand yuan for this purchase. Adding to the store's original payments, she'd spent a fortune on this trip to Yangcheng, buying a whopping twelve thousand yuan worth of goods!
And this purchase was very convenient because she had a very obvious scar on her face, which made her face look a little hideous, and she looked like a vicious and evil woman at first glance.
Because of this, passengers kept their distance from her and did not dare to approach her.
Even those scammers, seeing Song Jingjing's appearance, didn't dare to approach her easily, let alone cheat her.
Moreover, this time she went out in a sleeper car, which was relatively safer.
Song Jingjing successfully returned with her goods. As the weather gradually got colder, more and more people came to buy cotton-padded jackets, and her store's business naturally became better and better.
Although her shop is not as big as Lin Man’s clothing store, fortunately she rents a shop with a superior location and a large flow of people, which also brings a lot of convenience to her business.
With a bulging purse, Song Jingjing looked forward with great joy to making a fortune this winter and having a prosperous New Year.
After seeing off the two customers, Song Jingjing said to her mother, Tang Lihong, "Mom, I plan to celebrate the New Year at home this year."
Tang Lihong was surprised and said, "The old man is here, aren't you all going to go over and spend the New Year with him?"
"Just go and pay New Year's greetings to Grandpa on the first day of the new year. I want to celebrate the New Year at home this year. I've made some money this year, so I'll buy more New Year's goods. I'll return the four thousand yuan to you before the New Year."
"You can use the money first, there's no rush to pay it back. But you're spending the New Year at home alone, I wonder if your parents-in-law will have any objections!"
"I can invite my parents-in-law to come and celebrate the New Year with us. Now that I have money, my father-in-law won't look down on me anymore!"
Tang Lihong felt her daughter was getting carried away by the money she made, so she said, "Jingjing, you've made money, but your sister-in-law has so many stores, and their locations attract even more people than yours. I wonder how much money she's made. I guess they have tens of thousands in savings."

Hearing this, Song Jingjing's eyes trembled violently as if they were hit by a sledgehammer.
She thought to herself, if she could make money, then Lin Man's stores were doing so well, wouldn't she make even more money? The moment she thought of this, the discomfort in her heart grew stronger.
"Mom, when I make enough money, I'll open another clothing store on another street tomorrow! I'll return your four thousand yuan when I have enough money.
"When the time comes, I'll leave this store to you, and I'll look after the other store and hire two more people to help." Song Jingjing said.
After hearing this, Tang Lihong thought for a moment and then said, "Jingjing, your sister-in-law also wants to quit her job. Why don't you open another clothing store with her? That way, you two can run the business together and look after each other."
However, Song Jingjing was not happy about this. She knew that business partnerships often lead to conflicts and disputes, and if the conflicts intensified, her mother would definitely be caught in the middle and would be in a dilemma.
"Mom, if my sister-in-law wants to open a clothing store, I can teach her some experience and skills, but forget about opening a store in partnership!
I'm worried that conflicts will arise between us over time, and then it will be difficult for everyone.
Didn't Lin Man open a leather shoe store? I think my sister-in-law could follow her example and open a shoe store too," Song Jingjing explained.
Tang Lihong listened to her daughter's words and felt that there was some truth to them. She thought for a moment and said, "Well, either a shoe store or a clothing store is fine. After all, the profits from shoes and clothing are very considerable.
It’s just that it’s hard to rent a shop on the pedestrian street, and the rent is expensive. Your uncle and his family bought such a big building, and I don’t know where the money came from.”
Song Jingjing pursed her lips. "I suspect that the money they used to buy the shop was given by Grandpa Huo Qingyan, but they all deny it. My eldest uncle even swore in front of everyone, so there's nothing we can do about it."
