Chapter 59: Is Four Cents a Day Too Much? (Please Subscribe First)
Sheng Shiwu couldn’t save his face, so after selling a few bags of spicy strips reluctantly, he no longer felt embarrassed.
Because selling a pack only costs five cents, and with money comes courage and motivation.
At the end of the first class, Sheng Shiwu sold more than 20 bags of spicy noodles and made a net profit of 1.2 yuan.
Today he only brought out fifty bags of spicy strips, and they were all sold out before lunch. It was a pity that Jiaojiao only gave him a hundred bags of spicy strips. If he had given him two hundred bags, he should have been able to sell them all! Sheng Shiwu regretted not asking Jiaojiao for more spicy strips. Jiaojiao said she would be out for two days before coming back.
He didn't know whether she had left or not. Sheng Shiwu wanted to ask for leave to go back and check on her, but he was afraid that Jiaojiao would laugh at him.
Should I wait until I go back for lunch and then take out the remaining fifty packs and sell them all?
If they were all sold out in one day, what would they sell tomorrow? Besides, he hadn't been home for lunch for two days, so he might as well go to the cafeteria and order another dish.
Sheng Shiwu was very happy that he made two dollars and fifty cents on his first business deal.
He had poor academic performance and attended a university not as prestigious as Qingcheng University, where there were some wealthy and popular people.
But there are more poor people. Even the poorest people are willing to buy spicy strips, which are not only delicious but also can be eaten with rice.
Many of my classmates in school were educated youth who had returned to the city, and they often brought their families with them.
Some classmates said they bought the spicy noodles to feed their children at home. Sheng Shiwu thought that he would be despised by his classmates for selling spicy noodles, but he didn't.
There were even some female classmates whose faces turned red, their lips trembled, and they could not speak clearly when they bought spicy strips from him.
Sheng Shiwu, who was a little nervous at first, was not nervous at all anymore and even felt a little superior.
No wonder Gu Jingtai particularly likes selling buns and cold noodles, it turns out money is so easy to make.
It would also be very face-saving, Sheng Shiwu thought, so he went to the Su family in the evening to ask if they could sell him some buns.
Even if I could earn one cent from each bun, it would be great! I felt happy, happy! Sheng Shiwu felt happy, but Sheng Yueliang felt particularly unhappy because she hadn't seen Song Zijin at noon.
She didn't want to treat her little followers to a meal, so she took her time to go home and eat.
She hadn't been home for dinner for two days, so Mr. and Mrs. Sheng thought she had finished her meal because she wasn't coming back.
Sheng Shiwen had just finished eating and when he saw his sister come back, he didn't even raise his eyelids.
"Dad, Mom, second brother, have you finished eating? Where's third brother?"
"Yueyue, why did you come back to eat at noon today? There was no food left for you at home. Mom will make you a bowl of noodles."
"Thank you, Mom. Where's my third brother?"
Sheng Yueliang seriously suspected that Sheng Shiwu had gone to live with Gu Jiaojiao, so she asked persistently.
"The third child hasn't come back for lunch in two days. He said he would eat lunch at school from now on."
Mr. Sheng said in a gentle voice that he wanted to eat at work!
"Dad, how much do you give my third brother every day?"
"Your mother gave it to me. It seemed to be 40 cents a day." Father Sheng knew that his daughter earned 50 cents a day.
"What? Giving Simao so much?" Sheng Yueliang's voice was a little sharp.
Sheng Shiwen frowned when he heard this: "Is it a lot? In the university cafeteria, soup is 5 cents, vegetables are 10 cents, and tofu is 10 cents and 5 cents.
Meat with vegetables costs 2 cents, stir-fried vegetables costs 25 cents, and rice costs 8 cents. Most people spend 4 liang (rice and steamed buns weigh about half a jin). The cheapest meal is 0.05 yuan for soup + 4 liang rice (0.08 yuan) = 0.13 yuan
Stir-fried dishes 0.25 yuan + 4 liang rice (0.08 yuan) = 0.33 yuan
Is 40 cents too much for Xiao Wu? I usually give you 50 cents a day as pocket money, so I give you 50 cents a day."
Sheng Yueliang: ...
She was just afraid that San Shazi would give the money to that bitch Gu Jiaojiao, so she shouted out of habit. She really didn't count it carefully!
Since she was reborn and returned to the Sheng family, she has never lacked money. Gu Jiaojiao was deceived by her into giving her all her assets of 800 yuan.
No matter how frugal she was in her previous life, she was still much more extravagant than she is now. The Sheng family is obviously very rich, yet they are always stingy.
"Wow...Wow...Who told me I came from the country? I didn't know food in the city was so expensive...Wow..."
Sheng Yueliang brought up her own inferiority complex in the past, hoping to impress her father and second brother.
Sheng Shiwen's eyes quickly dimmed, and a sour feeling welled up in his chest.
"Yueyue, please stop crying, don't you know that prices in the city are high? How did you spend all the 800 yuan?"
"Wuwu... Second brother, what you said makes me so sad. Jiaojiao insisted on giving it to me. I thought there would be more after I spent all the money... Wuwu..."
"Yueyue, the noodles are here, eat them quickly and go to class, or you'll be late."
Sheng's mother had just finished making a bowl of noodles when her daughter started crying again! "Mom, my second brother blamed me for spending 800 yuan, wuwuwu..."
"It's just a waste, what's the big deal, Xiaowen, how can you talk about your sister like that?"
"Mom, I'm sorry, Brother Yueliang is sorry for you. I'll give you ten dollars when I get my salary. I'm going to work now."

After Sheng Shiwen finished speaking, he immediately stood up and left, as if there was a dog chasing him.
Sheng Yueliang: “…”
Humph! You really have the guts to fight me, you idiot.
For the sake of ten dollars, I'll reluctantly not argue with you.
So Sheng Yueliang happily ate the noodles, "Wow~ What is this? It tastes terrible~"
Mother Sheng was very embarrassed. She hadn't cooked for more than ten years. Since the family arranged for a life assistant, she had not entered the kitchen.
"The moon, is it hard to eat?"
"Damn... it's too salty, mom~ even the eggs taste bitter~"
She originally wanted to talk nonsense, but in this family, her mother was the only one who loved her, and she couldn't offend her mother again.
I've been annoyed by them at home lately. Those two idiots are really unreasonable. They always obeyed me in everything before.
He has been making sarcastic remarks to her these days. What a problem!
Hey! What on earth is Brother Zijin doing? They are already married. If she married into the Song family earlier, then the second and third idiots would come to curry favor with her! Song Zijin, who was being talked about by Sheng Yueliang, was now in front of the Su family's cold noodle stall, waiting foolishly for Gu Jiaojiao to appear.
When he saw her yesterday, he felt that Gu Jiaojiao used to be weak, but now she is very hot.
The more I thought about it, the more I compared Gu Jiaojiao with Sheng Xinglian, and the more I compared them, the more I felt that Sheng Xinglian was unbearable.
Song Zijin didn't know that she had changed her name to Sheng Yueliang, and he was not in the mood to see Sheng Yueliang today.
He just didn't want to regret it, so he wanted to come and see Gu Jiaojiao again to see if she was really that good.
He hoped to see Gu Jiaojiao's ugly side so as to convince himself that it was right for him to like Sheng Xinglian.
But when the Su family closed their stall, he still hadn't seen Gu Jiaojiao, so he could only go to school in disappointment.
Gu Jiaojiao and her friends were driving on the road in a car. Although there was no highway, there were very few vehicles on the road and there was no traffic jam.
"Uncle driver, do you want to stop and have a rest? Let's eat something before we go on?"
Gu Jiaojiao asked the driver that she actually wanted to drive and should talk about it after she finished eating.
