Jian Xiaoxing didn't know about the dirty deeds of Zhang Wei and Scarface, he just felt sorry for Jian Xia.
On the weekend, Jian Xiaoxing took Jian Xia shopping, chatting while walking, trying to persuade her to go to Shenmu Restaurant to help.
He Xiang helps out in a restaurant and earns 22 yuan a month, which is no less than what she earns at a chemical factory.
But Jian Xia refused outright.
"When the restaurant is busy, I can't even eat. I can't bear that kind of hardship."
"Actually, you don't have to work. I'm just worried that you might have too many thoughts." Jian Xiaoxing put a skirt on her and gestured.
Jian Xia looked at the stalls lined up in a row, and suddenly an idea came to her. She grabbed Jian Xiaoxing's hand and said with a smile:
"Xiaoxing, I've got an idea. I want to set up a stall to sell clothes."
Actually, setting up a street stall is really a good choice. Jian Xiaoxing didn't mention it because he was afraid that she would feel ashamed of setting up a street stall. Since she wanted to do it, he naturally supported it 100%.
"Xia Xia, you have always had good taste, so buying clothes will definitely be no problem. I'll help you."
Jian Xia was very excited and dragged Jian Xiaoxing around to inquire about the source of goods.
Unfortunately, when the people selling clothes heard them asking where they got their goods from, they became unhappy and ignored them.
Just when they were at a loss, a familiar voice sounded from behind them.
"They won't tell you. If they do, wouldn't that just mean they'll have another competitor?"
Yu Biao stood in front of a shoe and sock stall with a smirk on his face.
It turned out that his mother was setting up a stall in the free market, and on weekends, Yu Biao would let her go back and have a day off.
According to Yu Biao's introduction, setting up a street stall is much better than working in a factory. When the market is good, you can earn more than 100 yuan in net profit a month, and when the market is not good, you can still make 50 or 60 yuan.
"It's all hard-earned money. It depends on whether you can endure this hardship. It's actually quite tiring to run the stall."
Yu Biao glanced at Jian Xia.
He knew that Jian Xia was a fat man and must not be a very hardworking person.
Jian Xia glared back at him unconvinced.
"What's there to worry about being tired? I'm going to do it. If you can do it, I can do it too."
Seeing that the two were about to get into an argument, Jian Xiaoxing quickly changed the subject and asked Yu Biao to help find the source of goods. He had been doing this for a long time and must know the answer.
Yu Biao did not hide anything and told them everything he knew.
"Qingyuan County is fifty kilometers away. There's a bus every day at five o'clock. It's not safe for a girl like you to go there to buy goods."
Qingyuan County is a county between the urban area and Haicheng Development Zone. After all, it is a county seat, so there will be some wholesale markets.
Many of the things sold in Haicheng, including food, clothing and daily necessities, are imported from Qingyuan County.
Jian Xiaoxing was also worried about Jian Xia's safety and didn't want her to take risks alone.
Seeing them hesitate, Yu Biao touched his nose and muttered:
"If you ask me, I might consider taking you there."
Yu Biao purchases goods once a week, so it’s okay to take her with him. Besides, he doesn’t want Jian Xia to have any accident.
"That's great." Jian Xiaoxing thanked on behalf of Jian Xia.
Jian Xia hesitated for a moment.
"Then don't have any bad intentions."
Yu Biao looked up and down with contempt, "Even if I wanted to make a move on you, I wouldn't do it to you!"
Jian Xia was so angry that she stepped forward and stepped on him, making him scream loudly. Only then did she reveal an innocent smile.
After agreeing on the time to purchase goods, Jian Xiaoxing and Jian Xia walked happily towards Yuelai Hotel hand in hand.
Jian Xia wanted to tell Jian Yang the good news.
At this time, Jian Yang must be chasing after He Xiang in the restaurant.
When they arrived at the restaurant, Chen Xiulian and He Xiang had just finished their afternoon break and were about to start preparing dinner.
"Is my elder brother not here?" Jian Xia looked around but didn't see Jian Yang.
He Xiang laid out the vegetables and started picking them. "He just left with Shen Chang. Didn't you meet him?"
"No, doesn't brother usually leave after seven o'clock?" Jian Xia still wanted to borrow some start-up capital from Jian Yang!
"Director Chen said he had a technical problem that he wanted to discuss with him, and he took him away." He Xiang didn't even raise her head.
A hint of disappointment flashed across Jian Xiaoxing's eyes.
The last time she saw him was after he came back from the main factory. She went to him about Jian Xia's matter, but he still looked indifferent, saying that the factory had already made a decision on the matter and it was not convenient for him to interfere.
At that time, Jian Xiaoxing felt that Chen Ze was irresponsible and gave him the cold shoulder.
Later, she learned from Jian Yang that it was not that Chen Ze didn't care, but that there were too many interested parties involved, so he could only wait and see.
Since Jian Xia has found what she wants to do and she doesn't want to go back to the factory, why bother holding on to it!
However, the knot in my heart can only be resolved by talking face to face.
However, their luck has not been very good recently and they always miss out by accident.
When it was time for dinner, people started to come into the restaurant and Jian Xiaoxing became busy. All his thoughts about his children were gone with the wind.
Jian Xia also lent a hand. Although there were many people eating at night, everything went smoothly.
As it approached eight o'clock, the people in the store finished their meal and left one after another.
A man came stumbling over from the next door, came to the counter, and shouted:
"Whoever's in charge here, give me twenty plates of dumplings filled with meat."
He Xiang quickly went to the counter and answered:
"Brother, we don't have many dumplings left in our restaurant. I'm so sorry."
Jian Xiaoxing poked his head out from the back kitchen and saw the scar on the visitor's face at a glance.
It turned out that Scarface was entertaining his friends next door. Drinking beer alone would not be enough. He was hungry and wanted to eat some dumplings.
The nightclub next door was the one he had recently bought. He had made a lot of money from dealing in scrap steel, so he wanted to do something else. Someone gave him the idea of opening a nightclub.
On the first day of opening, friends came to support him, and as the host, he naturally responded to their requests.
When he heard that there were not enough dumplings, he was so drunk that his mind was out of control. He picked up a glass bottle on the counter and smashed it on the ground.
"You little girl, I asked you to make twenty plates of dumplings because I think highly of you. Stop talking nonsense and get going!"
He Xiang looked terrified and embarrassed. Jian Xiaoxing hurried out, supported He Xiang, and said to Scarface:
"You're opening your business today, you don't want to attract the police, right? If you cause trouble here again, I'll report you to the police."
I don't know if it was because he had reported the case to the police, or because he had seen Jian Xiaoxing and Yu Biao together and automatically classified her as a friend, Scarface stopped being arrogant,
"Okay, make as much as you have. I'm in a good mood today, so I won't bother with you. My friends who deal in scrap steel are still waiting for me! Send it to me later and add a few more dishes."
After saying that, he staggered back to the Phoenix Ballroom next door.
He Xiang came to her senses and was almost scared to death. She grabbed the corner of Jian Xiaoxing's clothes and asked:
"If you hadn't told me to report it, I'm afraid that man with the scar on his face wouldn't have let it go. He even asked me to send dumplings over. What should I do?"
