"What's next?"

Ye Changyuan looked around nervously.

"Of course we shout when we're selling things, but the other party knows what we're doing here."

Ye Xiaoxiao had never done such a thing, but money makes all the difference, and she was afraid of losing money in order to make it.

"Selling..." Ye Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and said, "Selling melon seeds and popcorn!! The best pairing for watching a movie!"

As expected, it was pitch black all around, and only by shouting could others notice them.

Ye Xiaoxiao's singing is very effective.

Soon a couple came over, and the boy asked generously what it was.

“Roasted melon seeds and popcorn are what people eat when they watch movies in the city now.” Ye Xiaoxiao untied the sack and showed it to the two of them.

The girl said, "Yes, I saw it for sale next to the cinema when I went to the county town last time."

Boy: “How much?”

"One dime a portion. We'll use a weighing scale and give each of us the amount for an enamelware pot."

Ye Xiaoxiao introduced in a soft voice.

Like this, it's so sweet!

Although the amount of melon seeds and popcorn is large, the price is also cheap.

The boy didn't hesitate and said, "Give us two."

"Okay."

Ye Xiaoxiao picked up the enamel pots and filled them up, then said, "If it's convenient for you two, we have newspapers here and we'll put them in boxes for you to hold."

I've never seen such thoughtful service in this place.

The girl also said shyly: "It's better to hold it up."

Ye Xiaoxiao stacked the cut newspapers into a paper box and put the money in it for the two men, who happily handed over two dimes.

Ye Changyuan's eyes widened: "Xiaoxiao, there really is something to buy."

Ye Xiaoxiao put the money away and said, "Of course, you can wait and see. We just started business today."

With the first sale, the rest will be easy.

Knowing what this place is for, some people would come over to ask about the prices, and if they found something suitable, they would pay for it.

Some people want to bargain, "I'll spend five bucks, is it okay if I only buy melon seeds?"

Ye Xiaoxiao explained with a smile: "We are doing business here, we are selling it here, don't make it difficult for me, big brother."

“I love popcorn.”

"We've added plenty of sugar to this popcorn. If you like it, you can bring it back to your wife and children. They will definitely be happy."

The person who asked the question was not angry when he heard this, but was happy instead. Yes... who would be happy to make their family happy by spending an extra five bucks?

The eldest brother quickly paid for one.

After he left, Ye Changyuan asked, "Xiaoxiao, why can you sell it now?"

Ye Xiaoxiao put the money away and said, "It's mainly for the sake of accounting, and also for business principles. If we can set this precedent, there will be people who will start buying. Those who bought together will definitely feel that they have been cheated, so it's better to make a fuss."

Ye Changyuan: "Xiaoxiao, you are so smart."

After the business got started, more and more people came to buy melon seeds and popcorn, to watch movies, to eat snacks, or even to feel superior.

Those who didn’t buy anything always felt like something was missing when they saw other people having food to eat and they didn’t have anything.

When I asked the price, I found out it was only a dime, which made me think it was a good deal.

Some children also cried and made a fuss while eating popcorn, and their parents had no choice but to bring their children to buy popcorn.

More and more people gathered in front of the stall, and it was almost impossible to come over.

Ye Changsheng was responsible for collecting money, Ye Xiaoxiao was in charge of stacking cartons and watching the goods, and Ye Changyuan was in charge of weighing and loading the goods.

The sack of melon seeds was quickly sold out, but the popcorn sold out even faster because it took up a lot of space but there wasn't much of it.

“We should have prepared more.”

Ye Changyuan regretted it very much.

Although Ye Changsheng pursed his lips and remained silent, his eyes showed that he felt it was a pity.

All the goods were sold out so quickly, which was beyond everyone's expectation.

"It's the first day, we have no experience."

Ye Xiaoxiao stamped her numb feet and finally experienced the joy of getting rich through hard work.

Ye Changyuan said in an annoyed tone, "There won't be a next time. I'll have to wait ten days or half a month for the next time."

"It's probably quite far from here to the nearby village, but if it's closer we can get there."

Of course, if it is a closed village like Baishi Village, there is nothing we can do.

"That's right! We can go to the county town. It only takes two hours to get there from here." Ye Changyuan said excitedly, "And there's a movie in the county town every two days. It's much more lively than here."

Ye Xiaoxiao: “…”

It's still a long way after walking for two steps, but it's much closer than Baishi Village. After all, this is in the town.

But she suggested selling them in the county town, because in order to seduce the people in the city, they had to bring out higher-end things.

Before the movie was even halfway through, all the things Ye Xiaoxiao had prepared were sold out.

If it were in a different time, the playful Ye Changyuan would definitely be more interested in watching a movie, but now he just wants to go home and count his money.

"Then let's go back. It's very cold outside."

Ye Xiaoxiao also wanted to see today's harvest.

After returning home, 꺘그 took out the 꿛 flashlight at home and turned it on.

Songlin Town has electricity, but not every household has it. For example, in the area where Grandpa Miao lives, the residents still don't have lights installed in their homes.

So it is very dark here at night and it is very dangerous to walk.

Now that there was the dim light of the flashlight in the room, she could finally see the amount of the money.

They took out all the penny bills and put them on the kang. Ye Xiaoxiao was responsible for counting the whole money, and Ye Changsheng was responsible for counting the five-cent keys.

In the end, there were ten yuan and fifty cents and a dime, and nine yuan and eighty cents for the key, which added up to twenty yuan and ten cents.

In this county town, it is almost one month's salary for a regular factory worker.

And this... is their first day's income.

"We earned all the tuition fees in one day..."

Ye Changyuan felt like he had opened the door to a new world.

Ye Xiaoxiao put the money away and explained to his two brothers: "This money is our capital. When we are done, we will make some money. How about that?"

Chang Yuan: "No problem, Xiaoxiao, whatever you say is what I will do."

Ye Changsheng had a complicated expression. He actually knew that his family's conditions were a little better. Although his parents had never said it in front of everyone, he had heard his parents talk in private. When his younger sister Yanyan left home, she took away all the family savings.

He used to feel a little worried and concerned about Yanyan's departure, but now he doesn't feel anything anymore.

Since the other party is heading for a better future, he will never stand in the way and they will just be strangers in the future.

Ye Changyuan: "Shall we continue tomorrow?"

Ye Xiaoxiao: "Of course I continued."

"Then I'll go out and ask where to watch the next movie."

Ye Changyuan ran out excitedly.

Ye Changsheng looked at Ye Xiaoxiao and asked, "Why are you so anxious to make money?"

"Why? Of course we are short of money. Who wants to live a good life?"

Ye Xiaoxiao did not reveal the series of unfortunate things that had happened to this family. She believed that things would get better little by little.

Ye Changsheng didn't ask any more questions, but quietly packed up his things while thinking about what he needed to prepare for tomorrow.

Ye Changyuan came back with Grandpa Miao, and he also heard clearly that the movie will be shown in the Daliushu Village next door tomorrow. It is far from here, and it will take half an hour to walk to the screening point in the village.

Ye Changyuan: "Let's prepare more tomorrow."

Ye Changsheng: "There aren't that many melon seeds left at home."

"It seems like you guys are having a bad business today. Melon seeds are sold in every household. You should ask your neighbors around to see if they have any at home. They should be very expensive."

Grandma Miao smiled as he watched the kids having fun, acting in a very serious manner, and offered some advice.

"Grandma, what you said makes sense. I'll go ask her tomorrow." Ye Xiaoxiao said enthusiastically, "Let's fry the melon seeds at home tomorrow. Thank you for your hard work, Grandma."

Miao Fengshan: "Haha, I see you guys are so energetic, and I feel so tired."
