As soon as Shen Ruofei arrived at the educated youth site, she knocked on Yi Xiaoqiu's door anxiously without even leaving her own room.
"Xiao Qiu, let me tell you!"
As soon as she entered the door, she saw Shen Ruofei's face full of excitement, and she even forgot to lower her voice.
Yi Xiaoqiu immediately covered her mouth and said, "Be quiet."
Shen Ruofei blinked and nodded, "Yeah."
Only then did Yi Xiaoqiu take his hand away from her mouth.
"Let me tell you, watermelons are selling really well! Xiaoqiu, does your uncle still have any watermelons?"
Shen Ruofei looked at Yi Xiaoqiu with shining eyes, afraid that she would say the watermelon was gone the next second.
"Have you sold out?" Yi Xiaoqiu could hardly suppress the joy on his face.
Shen Ruofei looked at her with sparkling eyes, "Yes! I went to the county!"
Yi Xiaoqiu nodded calmly and repeated what he had said to Song Ying, "Yes! And there are many more. Last time, my uncle was worried that he couldn't sell so many watermelons by himself!"
"I want ten thousand pounds!"
Yi Xiaoqiu was shocked and then shook his head.
Shen Ruofei looked disappointed, "No?"
Yi Xiaoqiu was not carried away by her joy. "No, I do have some watermelons, but it's hard to ship them all at once. Would you like to buy them in bulk?"
She still didn't let her joy get to her head. She had to be rigorous where she needed to be rigorous, so that things could last.
Shen Ruofei understood that not everyone had the portable space to transport goods like her.
"Then I'll take two thousand kilograms first, okay?"
"That should be possible. I'll ask my uncle tomorrow. If it's okay, I'll help transport the melons here."
The uncle she mentioned was just a farmer who transported watermelons with ox carts. How could he transport so many watermelons at once? Transporting the watermelons in batches was the only way to meet the current transportation capacity.
After seeing Shen Ruofei off, Yi Xiaoqiu lay on the kang and thought about selling melons.
It was not clear whether Shen Ruofei and her friends could make this business successful, so she temporarily found a place to sell the watermelons.
Now that Song Ying and Shen Ruofei are about to start this business, she has to find a safe and confidential pick-up point.
Now we can sell watermelons in the summer and cotton in the winter.
A broken house or a bush would definitely not do. Watermelon would be acceptable, but anything else would definitely not do.
Yi Xiaoqiu went to the farm.
"Butler, we need to plant more watermelons. Also, don't sell the watermelons we've planted these days. I want to keep them and sell them outside for money."
"Yes, Master."
The housekeeper turned around and opened up a few more plots of land to grow watermelons.
"Master, please rest assured. The watermelons we just planted will be ripe in less than three hours."
The next day, Yi Xiaoqiu took a day off to go to the Yishe community to look for a house.
As for what kind of house to look for, Yi Xiaoqiu also had some ideas in mind.
It would be best to choose an old house that is uninhabited, not too dilapidated, and located in a remote area.
After walking around Yushan Yushe several times, Yi Xiaoqiu was familiar with the streets of Yushan Yushe. Following her memory, she came to a small courtyard next to a forest.
The wall of the small courtyard was about to collapse, the house was a bit dilapidated, and there were several big holes on the roof.
This is it!
Yi Xiaoqiu walked forward for a few dozen meters and came to another newer small courtyard and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" Quickly, the people in the room came out.
She was a daughter-in-law in her thirties, with short hair that reached her ears, clothes with several patches, and a few crow's feet at the corners of her eyes.
"Sister, may I ask whose old house that is?"
Yi Xiaoqiu pointed to the broken yard on the right.
Sun Miao smiled and said, "That's our old house. My grandparents used to live there. They left five years ago and the house is now empty. What do you think it's used for?"
"Sister, what's your name? Is your house for rent? I want to rent it."
Sun Miao looked at Yi Xiaoqiu as if she was a fool. "My name is Sun Miao. Sister, the roof of this house is broken. It's uninhabitable now! Why don't you rent a better place?"
This little girl looks like an educated youth, why is she so stupid?
Yi Xiaoqiu felt that this elder sister was really honest. How could she refuse money that was delivered to her door?
"Sister Sun, my name is Yi Xiaoqiu. I just want to rent a house so I can stay here occasionally. I don't come here often, so after some repairs, I'm sure it will be habitable."
Although the house is shabby, it is not easy to find a house with such a large yard in the town.
Besides, this location is remote, which is very suitable for Yi Xiaoqiu to come and deliver the goods.
As for the damaged house, she can just ask the robot housekeeper to come out and fix it.
Seeing that she really didn't care, Sun Miao felt relieved. "Okay, as long as you don't mind it being shabby, I'll rent it."
Yi Xiaoqiu: "The rent is two dollars a month, how about it?"
Sun Miao was shocked. "What? Two dollars!"
Yi Xiaoqiu thought she had given too little.
Sun Miao was pleasantly surprised. "Sister, I'll rent it. I'll ask my man to come over and fix up the house for you!"
She didn't expect that a shabby house that was uninhabitable could earn her two dollars every month. It was such a surprise!
Yi Xiaoqiu was in a hurry to buy a house because she had to go to the Seventh Company in the afternoon, and she didn't want to let Song Ying and the others wait too long.
"No, I can clean it myself."
Sun Miao nodded quickly, "But...this roof..."
Yi Xiaoqiu waved his hand and said, "It's okay, my friend will come to help later."
A robot butler can build a cabin in one night, so it must be even faster to repair a house.
If we ask someone else to come, it will definitely not be done in one day.
She didn't plan to do any major repairs to the house. She just needed to fix the roof, reinforce the walls, and finally clean it up, and that would be enough.
Sun Miao grabbed Yi Xiaoqiu's arm and said, "Then let's go inside and talk."
Yi Xiaoqiu thought that he had to clarify the matter of renting the house later, and it was not a good idea to stand outside the door, so he followed Sun Miao into the house.
"Sister Sun, I'll give you the money now, but you have to write a rental receipt."
Don't think that people nowadays are honest and simple. What if she finishes repairing the house and they decide not to rent it the next day? Yi Xiaoqiu will not allow this to happen.
"Ah! I have to write a note! But I can't write!" Sun Miao looked nervous.
"Sister Sun, it's okay if you can read."
Sun Miao shook his head. "I learned a few words, but I don't know many. I'll let my son come."
"Okay, then I'll write a house rental certificate and you can ask your son to come and recognize it. If there is no problem, you can sign it and put your fingerprints on it." Yi Xiaoqiu took out a pen and paper from the storage bag.
Sun Miao nodded and shouted to the people in the room, "Yangyang, come out quickly!"
After a while, a little boy about ten years old ran out of the house. "Mom, what do you want me to do?"
Sun Miao looked at the words Yi Xiaoqiu had just written on the Eight Immortals Table. "Recognize them for me."
The boy named Yangyang walked over and took a look. "Housing contract. Sun Miao is renting out an old house for two yuan a month, with a minimum rent of half a cent. If he breaks the contract without reason, he will have to pay Yi Xiaoqiu three times the rent..."
Yangyang read it word by word.
"Oh my God! Three times!" Sun Miao was shocked.
