"Sister, what can I buy with these 25 yuan?"
"25 yuan can buy a lot of things. It can buy dozens of kilograms of flour, dozens of kilograms of rice, and even a lot of meat!"
"Oh, I can buy that much. How much is one pound of rice?"
"15 cents, I just bought it yesterday!"
"One and a half cents?" Shen Chunyan was very surprised. One and a half cents could actually buy a kilogram of rice. This was really beyond her imagination!
"Girl, are you selling it?"
"Sell, sell, sell. It will grow back anyway!"
Now she is short of funds and has no money at all, so she urgently needs start-up capital!
The older sister in the barber shop measured the length of Shen Chunyan's hair with her hands and said, "Then I'll cut it below your ears!"
"Okay, sure!"
The elder sister took the scissors and cut the hair in a few strokes, and then trimmed it carefully!
This is the first time that Shen Chunyan has cut her hair so short, but looking at herself in the mirror, she feels very capable. When she loses all the weight, her hair will probably look more normal!
The haircut was done in 20 minutes!
"How about taking a look?"
"Not bad, sister, your cooking skills are very good!"
"Of course, I've been doing this for many years, and I'm the best in Huaxi Town!
Shen Chunyan smiled and nodded!
"Sister, I see you have some small pimples under your eyes. Why don't you try to get rid of them?"
"Oh, I don't know how it happened. It's been growing for a while, and it keeps growing!"
Shen Chunyan looked at the small bumps around her elder sister's eyes, they must be fat particles!
"Sister, the things around your eyes are called sebaceous granules, also known as fat granules, and they are caused by fat accumulation!"
"Ah, can it be removed?"
"Yes, I have a medicine, but it's a bit expensive!"
"How much?"
After Shen Chunyan had a general understanding of the prices of goods in this era, she also set a price for her products in her mind!
In the era when she lived in, the cosmetics products she made were all high-end products, and the people who used them were basically middle-class girls or wealthy ladies!
The price of each set of cosmetics is basically between several thousand and tens of thousands of yuan!
But it was the 1980s, and the price was too high, which definitely wouldn't work. But if the price was too low, she would feel like she was making too little!
In the era when she lived in, rice cost at least five yuan per pound, so each bottle of her cosmetics would cost 100 times that, five hundred yuan per bottle. Now, a pound of rice costs 15 cents, so 100 times that would be fifteen yuan!
"Sister, my fat particle removal product is only 15 yuan a bottle!"
“This is really expensive!”
"Sister, it's a little expensive, but it works. If it doesn't work, I'll give you a refund!"
The lady in the barber shop looked at herself in the mirror. She was a woman who pursued perfection. Although she was a little fat, she had very high demands on herself. After having a few fat particles on her face, she felt it was very unsightly!
"When will you deliver it to me?"
"Wait a few days, I'll go get the goods, and then I can send it back to you!"
"Okay, then I'll give you the money for your hair and the money for the fat particle removal medicine today!"
"Sister, you trust me too much. Aren't you afraid that I won't come back?"
"Hahaha, I'm a pretty generous person. You took the 15 yuan, so what? Just think of it as me misjudging you!"
"Sister, how much does it cost for my haircut?"
"I don't charge any money. Meeting is fate. Consider it a gift from me to you!"
"Okay, big sister, since you're so generous, I'm pretty generous too. If you can introduce other customers to me and get them to buy my products, I'll give you a commission of one dollar per bottle!"
"If it really works for me, don't worry, a lot of people will come to my barber shop to get their hair cut. I promise to help you sell it!"
Shen Chunyan nodded. She didn't expect that she could sell a product so easily. It seems that her business acumen is still very strong!
Holding 40 yuan in cash, Shen Chunyan walked out of the barber shop!
In the past, she would have disdained these 40 yuan, but now it is the capital for her to start a business, and she can't lose it!
As she walked, she saw a person on the street who looked familiar. Upon closer inspection, wasn't it her husband Li Mobai?
It’s not surprising that he appears here, after all, their training base is nearby!
But she felt that Li Mobai definitely didn't want her to appear here. After all, her current state was not something a man could look up to!
So Shen Chunyan did not disturb Li Mobai, but walked in another direction!
Li Mobai sends the child to school in the morning, and Shen Chunyan has to pick up the child from kindergarten in the evening!
The kindergarten Li Chen attends now belongs to the Air Force Kindergarten, which is also a kindergarten for soldiers in the army. All the children in it are children of soldiers!
Arriving at the kindergarten gate, Shen Chunyan took a look and estimated that he would be coming out soon!
Because of her large appearance, people would pay attention to her wherever she went, especially in the 1980s when some people couldn't even get enough to eat. She was so fat, how could she not attract attention?
But for the strong-hearted Shen Chunyan, it doesn't matter. She won't stay fat forever and will lose weight sooner or later!
Just as she was waiting for Li Chen to come out, she found that Wang Qing had also come!
"Chen Chunyan, why are you here?"
"Of course I'm here to pick up Li Chen. What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to pick him up too. I was the one who picked him up during the days you weren't here, and I'm still the one who picks him up now!"
"Comrade Wang, I think you misunderstood. I'm already married to Comrade Li Mobai. Li Chen is my son now, and it's my duty to come pick him up. Thank you for picking him up, but he's no longer needed now!"
"What do you mean? Why should you be the one to pick me up from now on?"
Shen Chunyan smiled. She really looked down on women like Wang Qing!
If you can't take Li Mobai down, then get close to Li Mobai's son, hoping to establish a good relationship with the son, and then get the man down!
But she may not understand men's thinking. How could a man marry a woman just because she treats his children well? Men like beautiful and good-looking women, not the kind of women who stay at home and take care of children.
"Because I'm his stepmother, I'll be the one to pick him up from now on!"
"Is this what Brother Li meant?"
"He told me that I will take care of Li Chen from now on!"
"You just beat him yesterday, how could I bear to let you take care of him?"
"I said I didn't hit him. Which eye of yours saw me hit him? If you're spreading rumors, don't blame me for being rude!"
Wang Qing looked at Shen Chunyan's angry expression and she was really scared!
