Chapter 075 Zhou Nanxu, You Take the Blame
Rong Mei blinked and looked at Zhou Nanxu, "Yeah, I think so too. Mom actually wanted to choose this place, but she was afraid..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Rong as if he was about to say something else.
Liu Rong was a little confused.
But she still expressed her concerns, "I'm afraid that I don't have enough money here. After all, if the shop is big, I need to have clothes to hang. So, to be safe, I think I'll take a step back and choose the shop on Yangqi Street. In this way, I can invest at least half the money in terms of cost."
She has nearly two thousand yuan in capital, which is all the savings she has accumulated over the past few decades.
As for the other passbook with two thousand yuan on it, that was all the allowances Zhou Nanxu had sent back over the years. She had always taken it out and saved it again, without touching a single cent.
Speaking of this, she should take out the money and give it to Rong Mei.
When the couple got married, she, as the mother-in-law, gave them 500 yuan and didn't buy them anything else. Even when they wanted to buy a washing machine, their in-laws refused to take the money.
She didn't have much extra. The two thousand yuan belonged to her son. Now that her son had his own family, she naturally had to give the money to her daughter-in-law to manage.
Zhou Nanxu looked back and forth between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Well, it turns out that there were differences of opinion, so we asked him to make the choice.
No wonder he felt his back suddenly felt a little cold.
He frowned and asked, "How much money will it cost? How much money do we have now? How much do we need?"
Liu Rong refused without a second thought, "I still have 2,000 yuan, but don't even think about taking out your money. I don't want it even if you give it to me!"
She understood the meaning of her son's question as soon as she heard it.
Of course she knew that the family could pool their money together to raise the capital, but business was not a 100% guarantee of not making a loss. If she really invested all her money and suffered a loss, the whole family would be left with nothing.
It doesn't matter to her as she is a fifty-year-old woman. There is no one older than her and although she has children, they are all grown up. It is the right age for her to make a living. If she fails, the worst that can happen is that she can go back home to farm. Even if she can't grow more, she can still grow enough for her own consumption.
If it works, it will improve the life of my family.
Zhou Nanxu opened his mouth and wanted to say something.
Seeing that the mother and son were about to have an unhappy argument, Rong Mei quickly stepped forward.
"Hey, Mom, listen to me. Let's choose the big one. If we don't have enough money, we can buy the goods on credit first. When we make money, we can use the money to pay for the goods."
Of course she understood Liu Rong's personality.
Although Liu Rong is usually easy to talk to, she is a little stubborn and too principled.
She had noticed it during the time they had been "living together".
Never let her work.
Second, I would never spend her money, even if I spent it at the market, as long as it was more than five yuan, I would go back and give the money to her.
It wouldn't even cost five dollars, let alone hundreds or thousands, so Rong Mei didn't even mention it.
Liu Rong has a strong sense of self-esteem.
"On credit?"
Liu Rong was not unfamiliar with this term. In the past, when her family did business, they would first give the goods to others, and then they would go to collect the payment after a certain period of time or others would take the initiative to settle the account.
Of course, they would also owe money to their suppliers for goods on credit, and based on the same principle, they would settle accounts with them at certain times.
But those are only for old customers with whom we have dealt for many years. Who would give you goods on credit if it is the first time you deal with them?
Even if she sells on credit, she needs to have an acquaintance. This is their first time opening a store and they don’t even have a guide, so who would dare to sell to her on credit?
Rong Mei smiled and nodded, "Yes, let's buy on credit first, and when the time comes, we can just give the payment to the boss."
Then he turned his gaze to Zhou Nanxu, smiling slyly, "So, I need your help."
When Rong Mei finished explaining how she needed his help, Zhou Nanxu's back became even more bent...
He said that this meal was the "Hongmen Banquet".
It turned out that he was asked to take the blame, and he said that his back not only felt cold but also heavy.
Rong Mei's idea was to use Zhou Nanxu's identity to win the boss's trust. After all, people these days have absolute trust in the identity of a soldier.
This was a bad idea on her part.
So she didn't dare to act on her own and had to obtain the consent of the person involved before taking any action.
If Zhou Nanxu disagreed, she would have no choice but to pay the money to Liu Rong.
What can Zhou Nanxu do?
Can you refuse?
Of course not...
He also wants a wife.
Just call it “evil ways”, he will take care of it.
Besides, it’s not that I really don’t want to give you the money. I’m just trying to buy some time. It’s okay as long as it’s not considered as cheating.
After Zhou Nanxu was confirmed and Liu Rong's ideological work was done, the family dinner came to an end.
Zhou Nanxu cleaned up the dishes and mopped the floor.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were watching TV in the living room. During the TV commercials, Liu Rong took out the savings book with 2,000 yuan for Zhou Nanxu.
She handed it to Rong Mei and said, "Take this money. This is the allowance that Nan Xu has sent back every month over the years. I have saved it for you. Now that you two have formed a small family, I, as your mother, have nothing to give you. You should take care of this money by yourself."
Rong Mei lowered her eyes and stared at the passbook that suddenly appeared in her hand.
As expected of a mother and daughter, we both have the hobby of giving money to others...
Rong Mei shook her head and pushed the money back, "Mom, your business is still short of money, so you can use this money first."
Liu Rong took it out and never thought of taking it back.
"Didn't you tell me that we can try to buy on credit? As long as we can buy on credit, the two thousand dollars I have is more than enough to pay the rent, do some renovations, and even pay part of the purchase price."
Rong Mei:.......
She came up with this idea because she didn't have any extra money.
If you know that Liu Rong still has this money, she would never say that.
"Mom, please take the money first. The credit issue hasn't been finalized yet. What if the boss doesn't trust you and doesn't give you face?
How about this, you can consider this money as our investment, or even as a loan. If you make money, you can give it to me and Nan Xu as dividends, or as interest."
Knowing that Liu Rong would never take the money for no reason, Rong Mei had no choice but to make up an excuse.
After hearing Rong Mei say this, Liu Rong was not so stubborn after all. After thinking about it, she decided to keep the money for the time being.
"Okay, let's go to the clothing wholesale market tomorrow and take a look. If the boss trusts us and is willing to sell me the goods on credit, then you can take the money."
"Okay." Rong Mei agreed with a smile.
I have other plans in mind for the money, but I have to go to the clothing wholesale market before I can make a decision.
