A little storm
The Jian family's stall was quickly sold out, and today's closing time was much earlier than yesterday, with all the items sold out before 6pm.
"How could this happen? We bought more specifically, thinking that if we couldn't sell all today, we could continue selling tomorrow!"
Please rest assured, this family of four are not unscrupulous businessmen who sell stale food. Su Qinxuan mainly stocks dry rice noodles, glutinous rice, unopened coconuts, etc. These ingredients can be stored for a long time and there is no need to worry about them spoiling.
Jian Yangping suggested: "Oh, in that case, let's go home first and rest for a while before we talk about it!"
With yesterday's experience, they were already familiar with the process and knew what to do.
After sending the two children back to the guesthouse, the two adults continued to go to the market to buy goods.
Jian Jianan and his brother stood in the yard looking at the sky. The blood-red sunset covered every inch of the sky, and the brilliant colors made people feel suffocated.
Since coming to Shenzhen, they have not had a good time to see the scenery. From the first day, they have been running around and working hard, without a moment to stop and rest.
Jian Jiabei sighed deeply, thinking back on everything that had happened in the past few days, he couldn't believe it. "We are actually standing on the land of Shenzhen, and we have been here for several days! We thought our life at the seaside happened just yesterday, everything is still vivid in my mind." He said with emotion.
Jian Jiannan felt the same way. "Don't think about the past. Things will be better in the future. Life is slowly getting better!"
It took less than a month from the time the family made the decision to the time they moved. In this day and age, it is extremely efficient to accomplish all these tasks in just one month.
Even Jian Jianan, who was most in favor of moving north to Shenzhen, had a little worry. What if this was the wrong decision? What if he couldn't make money in Shenzhen and ended up going back in disgrace? What if...
So many ifs weighed heavily on her heart.
But now, I don’t have to worry anymore!
Because they have goals and motivation, and most importantly, the experiences of these days have proved the feasibility of this matter!
They are not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and as long as they are given a chance, they will bravely pursue a new life.
This is the right place!
Jian Jiannan suddenly said, "Grandma and the others would be so pissed if they knew!"
Jian Jianan immediately added, "That's not the case. Mom and Dad have never disobeyed them in decades. I guess they are getting really anxious right now!"
It is said that children are young and ignorant, but the two children of the Jane family are different. They are influenced by their family environment day after day and naturally understand the situation their family is facing, even if the two adults did not tell them in detail for protection or other purposes.
Children have the clearest and most direct sense of good and evil. They will be nice to whoever is nice to them. Since grandma and uncle don't like them, watching that group of people get humiliated is the happiest thing for them.
The two of them watched the sunset for a while, and Jian Jiabei suddenly thought of something and asked, "Nannan, business today is pretty good compared to yesterday, even a little better. Do you think we should continue to introduce new dishes tomorrow?"
Jian Jiabei looked at Jian Jianan with eyes full of hope. He thought his sister was really smart and had so many weird ideas in her head. If she hadn't suggested to her parents yesterday to add a new dish that was easy to carry and had Hainan characteristics, the business wouldn't be so popular today.
Unexpectedly, Jian Jianan shook his head briskly and said, "No need, we can just continue to launch these two items tomorrow."
"Ah, why?" Jian Jiabei was puzzled. His sister's idea today was a huge success, so why didn't she repeat it tomorrow? Besides, there were so many special dishes in his hometown that even a book as thick as a brick couldn't finish them all!
"Well, what we should do now is not to continue to introduce new dishes, but to tap into the potential based on our existing foundation. It would be good enough if we can do well with the existing ones!" Jian Jianan answered without hesitation.
"Ah, so we don't need to innovate and just need to follow the old rules?" Jian Jiabei still didn't understand.
"No, of course I don't mean that. It's just that brother, you have to know that, including today which hasn't ended yet, it's only the second day of our stall! You can't become fat in one breath. You have to eat one bite at a time and walk one step at a time. We can talk about these things when we need them in the future when business is good!" Jian Jianan said earnestly.
Jian Jiabei seemed to understand but not quite.
"That's right, what you said makes sense. Let's take it slow. Besides, setting up a stall isn't a long-term solution. We have to go to school in the future!"
Jian Jiabei is very open-minded. The education of his two children is one of the most important factors in the family's decision to move north. He believes that after they can settle down and take a breath, their parents will definitely find ways to send them to school.
Jian Jianan was stunned. She seemed to have never thought about this question before and was a little hesitant. If she had to go to school, would she still be able to do business in the future?
From what her brother said, it must be impossible. What should she do? She loves the process of making money the most!
Thinking of this, Jian Jianan became listless and didn't even care when his parents came back.
"What's wrong with Nannan?" Su Qinxuan asked in surprise, "Why are you so listless? Are you tired?"
Jian Jianan shook her head and didn't want to talk. She was not physically tired but mentally tired. When she thought about having to stay away from the career she loved in order to go to school in the future, her heart was broken!
Su Qinxuan observed for a while, and after making sure that her daughter was fine, she went to busy herself with what she needed to do tomorrow.
In their plan, living in a guesthouse was just a temporary solution. Finding a house, whether renting or buying it, and then sending their two children to school was the right path in the couple's minds.
Now, there are still many things to accomplish to achieve this goal, so where is the time to rest!
***
On the second day, the four members of the Jian family appeared in front of the train station on time and started setting up stalls for the day.
Practice makes perfect. People are always most afraid of uncertain and unknown things. However, after the experience of setting up stalls in the past two days, the whole family has a more detailed understanding of this matter and now they are doing their own things with ease.
Su Qinxuan is the chef, Jian Yangping is in charge of the finances, Jian Jiabei works silently, and Jian Jianan opens his mouth to solicit business. This stall will be incomplete without any one of them and will fall apart.
Woo woo woo——
The clear train whistle sounded, indicating the train had arrived. Soon, a huge crowd of people filed out, stopped in front of various stalls, bought their favorite food, and then hurried away.
Su Qinxuan spread her legs slightly, put the dry vermicelli into the pot, took it out and added marinade and various condiments. Her movements were so fast that people could not keep up. Before they could get enough of watching, a bowl of hot Hainan noodles was freshly baked.
The guest handed the money to Jian Yangping and then left.
Sometimes, tired travelers would take a bowl of coconut rice at Jian Jianan’s recommendation. The soft, sweet glutinous rice and coconut aroma would immediately soothe their tired souls, while the hot Hainan noodles would fill their stomachs, giving them the strength and courage to continue on the road of hard work and making a living.
The four members of the Jane family are busy with their work and feel that their current life is full of hope. However, secretly, there are people who are jealous of them and jealousy is crawling in their hearts.
For several days in a row, the Jian family's stall was so popular that they made a lot of money. Moreover, they closed the stall and went home very early. While other vendors were still selling their goods diligently, they pushed their carts and went home happily.
What would the other vendors, still standing under the scorching sun and gasping for breath, think? It would be a good thing if they didn't feel jealous.
But there was no other way. Su Qinxuan and Jian Yangping also wanted to continue their business. Besides, it was already past April. If they couldn't find a school willing to accept their two children, they would become illiterate!
The matter of school enrollment was imminent and was the top priority for the two adults. Therefore, they would rush to sell out every day and leave the stall without ever staying for a moment.
Gu Xiangxiang whispered to her husband, "Why is their stall so busy every day?"
Li Tianchuan still had that honest and simple face, but his words were not so honest. "Who knows? Maybe that family will cast a spell to scare everyone into buying their food!"
Gu Xiangxiang was anxious, "That won't do, Lao Li, don't forget we're in this business too, we can't let them snatch it all away!"
Actually, this statement is completely unreasonable. Who doesn't sell food in this area? If one person can easily steal their business, then everyone should just pack up and go home. Isn't business based on ability?
Li Tianchuan and his men don't care about this. Whoever becomes famous will block his financial path. Blocking someone's financial path is like killing their parents. Now they have enemies who killed their fathers!
Li Tianchuan was in a bad mood. He gritted his teeth and looked at the family who were happily collecting money. Then he looked at his own stall which no one visited, and he became even angrier.
Gu Xiangxiang was still complaining, "Why is it that their business is still so good? Generally speaking, selling things will fluctuate. It's possible for business to be good today and bad tomorrow, but their business is always so good every day. It's really puzzling!"
She chattered on and on, "I think it has something to do with their position. You know what, they grabbed the best seats as soon as they arrived."
This is a complete lie. The current location of the Jian family stall is so high that they would not even look at it in the past.
As Li Tianchuan was getting angry, he suddenly had an idea and a plan came to his mind. He got inspiration from Gu Xiangxiang's words.
He narrowed his eyes, "Really? Then things change. This good position should be ours tomorrow, right?"
The next day, when Jian Jianan's family of four happily set up their stall, they were surprised to find that their stall had already been occupied by someone else.
The culprit who occupied their stall had no shame at all. He raised his head and looked at them smugly, as if to provoke them.
"It's already taken, what else can you do?"
