In the days that followed, Zhao Jianguo arranged with the hotel staff to pick up the goods at night, every two days. This way, Zhao Jianguo wouldn't miss work and still have time to catch the last bus home after the delivery! As for the goods, Zhao Hanyun now had Xiao Yuanqiu load the items into his Jiuli pot. When there was less cargo, Zhao Jianguo would just take Xiao Yuanqiu with him. Zhang Xun always had someone bring the payment to settle the bill, and now Zhao Hanyun's family had at least 100,000 yuan. Yan Jinlan was so worried every day that she finally gave it all to Zhao Hanyun and asked him to keep it safe. Zhao Hanyun was under tremendous pressure! Was this a sign that she was going to take charge of the family finances?
"Wife, I went to deliver the goods a little early today and met someone who used to buy things from us. He was asking if we had moved and he wanted to buy things from us again! You said last time that you wanted to open a store. Why don't we go and have a look some other day and find a place to open a store!" Zhao Jianguo was sitting on a mat watching TV in the evening when he remembered what an uncle had asked him today. Opening a store is not a bad idea. Anyway, the family doesn't have to worry about financial problems now.
"Okay, I'll ask around first!" Yan Jinlan agreed readily. Although her family's income was good now, it would be safer to open a store!
When Zhao Hanyun heard that she was going to see a store, she remembered something. Her place was just starting to develop, and many people were still buying houses on the old streets. In fact, the construction of the new district of the town had already begun, but the road was not open yet, and everyone felt it was unreliable. As a result, in less than three years, after the road was paved, many shops moved to the new district, and the old streets were directly abandoned, which made many people regret it!
"Mom, when you look at stores, go to the new district. There should be some good ones there." Zhao Hanyun directly pointed out that they wanted to go to the new district to look at houses. This was an opportunity. They should buy them quickly while the housing prices have not been hyped up yet.
Later, Yan Jinlan actually went to the new district to inquire about it. The sales of storefronts were not very good now. Yan Jinlan specifically asked about the price. The price of a ten-square-meter storefront plus a small attic above was only 20,000 yuan in total, which was really cheap!
Zhao Hanyun had told his parents long ago that the place would become a new town, and if they chose the right address, they would receive compensation for demolition later, making it a sure-win business.
Zhao Jianguo and his wife discussed it for a long time, and finally decided to use their family savings, including their recent earnings, totaling about 200,000 yuan, to buy ten houses. Their daughter said that the houses would appreciate in value, so it would be nice to buy more and put them there, and collect rent from them in the future.
After buying the house, Zhao Jianguo specially brought Yan Fugui and his wife over and had a meal at his home to make Yan Fugui and Qin Meizhen happy!
"Okay, Jianguo, mom and dad are relieved to see that you are doing well. You can keep this ten thousand first. Think of it as a wedding gift from mom and dad!" Yan Fugui handed a stack of money to Zhao Jianguo. Zhao Hanyun saw that they were all hundred-dollar bills. He didn't know how many vegetables his grandfather had to sell or how long he had to work in the fields to save so much.
"Dad, what are you doing? I asked you and Mom to come for dinner. Who asked you to give us money? Put it away quickly, we don't want it!" Zhao Jianguo pushed the money back. It was not easy for the old couple to make money, and he had a brother-in-law who was not married yet. How could he take their money!
"That's right, put it away quickly! Mom and Dad, we can't take it! You can keep it for your younger brother to get married." Yan Jinlan held Qin Meizhen's hand, preventing her from giving the money to Zhao Jianguo, and signaled Yan Fugui to put the money away quickly.
"What are you doing? I'm giving you money and you're being so reluctant. I'll give it to you if you have money at home. If you don't have money, forget it!" Yan Fugui was a little annoyed. He, the one giving the money, didn't say anything. Why were you pushing it back and forth? "Come on, girl. Your parents don't want it. Grandpa is giving you the money. Keep it!"
Zhao Hanyun took the money from his grandfather, clearly feeling the gazes from his parents, and said to Yan Fugui in a very mischievous tone, "Grandpa, give me this money. Does your family have any more money? You still need to save it for me to marry an aunt!"
"My dear, you still know how to get married! Don't worry, grandpa's family still has money, enough for your uncle to get married!" Yan Fugui touched Zhao Hanyun's head and said with a smile. It's time for his son to get married. The family still has some savings, but this kid has too high standards and it's unknown when he can settle down.
Zhao Hanyun took the money from his grandfather and began to think about how to return it. Grandpa likes to explore in the fields, why not let him try the space seeds! Maybe there will be a big harvest!
