In December, Su Ya finished her final exams for this semester.
Three days later, I went to get my transcript and found that I got 100 points in all three subjects.
The other results are not bad either.
For this, the principal gave her a new schoolbag as a reward, encouraging her to keep up the good work and try to maintain it.
For a new school, students' grades are very important to them.
Su Ya doesn't plan to go back to her hometown this year and will celebrate the New Year here.
"Aunt Li, your house hasn't been rented out yet."
"Yeah, now it's my job to wait for people to rent the house. I'm here eight or nine hours a day."
Su Ya just went to the department store to ask Director Wang if he needed any more goods. Director Wang said that he had found a fruit base and there was no shortage of fruit.
Su Ya had no choice but to come back. When she passed by the small house in the community, she looked at Aunt Wang and asked with a smile:
"No one likes you?"
"Those who come here to ask are all small business owners. There's no running water or electricity here. How can they do business? No one will rent for two dollars a month."
Two dollars, she can earn it back by selling fruit all day on Saturday and Sunday.
"Auntie Wang, why don't I rent it?"
"Hey, aren't you in school, little girl? Why would I rent you?"
"I just sell fruit on Saturdays and Sundays."
"Selling only on Saturday and Sunday? No, no, you will lose a lot of money." Before Su Ya could say anything, Aunt Wang quickly lifted her up and waved her hand, saying it was for her own good.
Su Ya smiled. "Auntie Wang, thank you for your concern. If most people sell fruit and only open the store two days a week, they will definitely lose money, but I won't. Don't worry, I will definitely earn back the rent. I'm studying here alone, and my income is not enough. Just rent it to me."
"Little girl, let's make it clear that if you lose money, we won't refund the rent you paid. You better think about it carefully."
"Yeah, I know, I know."
"Okay, I'll give you the contract and we'll sign it. Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I'll charge you half a month's salary. After the New Year, I'll charge you the full month's salary."
"good."
For just one dollar, Su Ya rented this small shop of only seven square meters.
The shop is rectangular, long horizontally, and has almost no depth.
Then she asked Aunt Wang to find two carpenters to build a fruit cabinet for her by pressing a row of walls.
There are large compartments on top and a cabinet underneath where you can store things.
It was just a long row with not much space on both sides, so Su Ya also made a table for collecting money.
Fruits can be weighed on it.
At that time, there was no electronic scale, and it was quite inconvenient to use only a beam scale.
It cost one dollar to rent a house, three dollars to make a cabinet, and five dollars to buy a calculator.
This calculator is currently the most expensive item in her store.
In fact, she has an electronic scale in her space, but she doesn't dare to use it.
The calculator is also new and not suitable for use.
You can only use these old ones, and you have to spend money to buy them.
In just three days, her shop opened.
Su Ya only served some common fruits, oranges, apples, peaches, and bananas.
Nothing else.
I made a few fruit baskets. During festivals and when I visit relatives, I can bring the fruit baskets.
On the first day of opening, Suya also held an event where apples were 2 cents per pound.
The enthusiastic Aunt Wang knew that it was not easy for a little girl like her, so she went out of her way to help her promote the cause in the community.
Not to mention this promotion, there are quite a few people coming to the community to buy fruits.
Her apples filled up the entire grid and were all sold out. She also sold a lot of other bananas, peaches and oranges.
When the shop closed at night, Su Ya took two bags of fruit, one for the landlady and one for Aunt Wang.
The two of them were extremely happy when they saw the full bag, and thanked Su Ya for her generosity again and again.
After Su Ya left, he and his family praised Su Ya, saying that this little girl was extraordinary, smart and capable.
Today, Su Ya counted the money and found that she had sold eight dollars.
The main reason was that apples were cheap, so she planned to use them for promotions. Within three days of opening, she sold them for only two cents.
Three days later, the price of apples returned to seven cents per pound.
It would be a big deal if such a small shop were open 30 days a month.
She has a holiday these days and it is the Spring Festival. She is in the store every day.
Because there was no heating in the store, she dressed warmly, wearing a scarf, a hat, and thick cotton shoes.
You stay in the store for a whole day.
Aunt Wang came out and looked at her like this and laughed at her stupidity. "Why don't you buy a coal stove and put it next to your feet? That way it will be a little warmer. Or take down one of the door panels and stand behind it. That will block the wind."
"Oh...thank you Auntie Wang for reminding me. I'll go sell a stove this afternoon."
"No, no, I have an old one at home that I was just about to throw away. I'll go get it for you. Just give me two pieces of coal."
"Okay, thank you, Aunt Wang. I'll go get some coal for you right away."
"Xiaoya, Xiaoya, don't leave. I have something to talk to you about."
"Sister Yang, what's wrong?"
"I'm here to bring you business. The bananas you gave me are so delicious. I see you have fruit baskets at home. Can you put together two fruit baskets for me and I'll give them to people."
"Sister Yang, what standard fruit basket do you want?"
"What standards can there be? Put a bunch of bananas, a few apples, oranges, and a few peaches in each fruit basket for me, and see how much money I have."
"Okay." There is a transparent sealed bag specially for fruit baskets in Su Ya's space.
He filled the basket for Sister Yang and weighed the fruit. "Sister Yang, a fruit basket is about 2 yuan. I'll give you 1.8 yuan. The fruit baskets are 50 cents each, which is the cost price."
"Okay, Xiaoya is still good at business. Get me three fruit baskets."
Su Ya sold three fruit baskets to the landlord. Just as she finished, Aunt Wang brought the stove to her and put coal in it and lit it.
Su Ya thanked him repeatedly, "Auntie Wang, please sit down and eat a banana first. I'll go get some coal for you."
"No, no, the bananas are too cold. I can't eat them. If you trust me, I'll go to your door and carry them there."
"I trust it, I trust it, Auntie, please go ahead and move."
"You are such a sweet-talker, little girl." Aunt Wang liked Su Ya's personality and her ability to get things done.
Don't be petty.
With the coal stove and sealing the door panel, it is really a lot warmer.
As it got warmer, Su Yajiu thought of another way.
Make cheap fruit basket boxes, put a few apples and oranges in each basket, and sell them for 80 cents each.
Su Ya didn't know if it would work, so she installed a few aside.
By the 28th day of the lunar year, almost everyone had a holiday, but Su Ya didn't, because everyone had received their salary at that time.
Since she had a lot of money, Suya insisted on closing the shop until the afternoon of the 29th day of the lunar year.
It has been a week since I opened my business.
