Chapter 20 Wealth is not exposed
On a sunny afternoon, Li Jiaming's second aunt finally came back, from the bus station to the vegetable market, she kept accepting compliments from others, and the whole person was radiant. Since her youngest son, who had been formed in the womb, was forcibly aborted, she had never been so happy and proud.
Of course, I am happy, the three shops that I had the courage to do at the beginning, the two husbands and wives were looking forward to renting out four or five hundred yuan, but they didn't expect to be rented out by their nephews for two thousand nine, and the upstairs rooms have not yet been rented. Although the people also said that they can't always take advantage of Jiaming, and they should pay him back if it is his, but the rent of 500 a month is still stable.
The monthly rent is 15,000, which is 18,000 a year!
18,000 a year, don't talk about the money for the third sister and the full sister to study in the future, that is, the dowry of the eldest sister and the second sister is enough! Or the boss of their county business is right, one shop to raise three generations, if you know this, you should listen to the family, be bolder, just make a few more.
But these are secondary, the second aunt is the happiest, and she doesn't dare to tell people casually that it is the county shop, Jiaming is really a genius, no one thought that the decoration would be so profitable!
If she hadn't gone to the county seat and several uncles happened to reconcile the accounts, even she wouldn't have known that she would be able to make so much money in two months. Although Chuanjian always said that these businesses are not counted, they are all the businesses of rich families pulled over by Dong Hao, and what they will earn in the future is long-term money, which is a lot!
After buying a lot of good dishes and returning home, the second aunt, who was happy, didn't find out that the youngest daughter went to pour tea for herself after she finished spoiling and asking for good food, and continued to pick up the reed broom to sweep the floor, and she swept so happily.
After drinking a cup of herbal tea, the second aunt got up and went to her own vegetable garden and field for a turn, and called the busy concubines to come over for dinner in the evening, only to see her nephew riding a car with her little niece, leisurely and leisurely. Looking at it like this, these two guys should have just returned from their grandma's house. Jiaming has a conscience, and the engineering team gives him 300 yuan every month, either on his younger sisters, or on his grandmother and grandfather.
"Second aunt!"
Li Jiaming, who was riding the car, called the second aunt, hugged him and sat in the back of the car, and the little sister who was still swaying with two little short legs immediately jumped out of the car and ran to the second aunt.
"Second aunt!"
"Wenwen", the second aunt who is no longer called the little sister 'Wenmei', but 'Wenwen', like Li Jiaming, hugged the little niece who pounced on her, and said happily: "Really good, go back and eat, my aunt bought your favorite cake last time, which is the one with cream." Sister Jin, they are all waiting for you to eat, hurry up!"
"Hey", as soon as I heard that there was the kind of cake that Brother Hao gave to Sister Man last time, the little sister spread her two little short legs and ran to the second aunt's house, and Li Jiaming smiled from ear to ear.
Bodhisattva bless, the psychological shadow of the little sister is gone, and now she is the happiest and sunniest little girl!
"Jiaming, are grandfathers and grandmothers okay?"
"Okay", Li Jiaming took the vegetable basket in the second aunt's hand, hung it on the handle of the bicycle, and accompanied her home.
"Jiaming, Chuanmin wants to let the sister-in-law go to Tonggu to help everyone cook, and by the way, take care of Jiade and them to study, what do you think?"
It should be that the uncle wants the aunt to go to the county seat to take care of the children, so he asks the second uncle to tell Uncle Chuanmeng.
"Uncle Chuan Meng is unwilling?"
"Hmm".
It's normal to be reluctant, the last time the fourth uncle built a new house, the aunt fed the pigs in advance and gave them a bad impression. Now with the addition of workers in the store, the food of more than 30 people is more than 100 yuan a day, so how can Uncle Chuan let his aunt help?
"Is business doing in the store now?"
The second aunt subconsciously looked at the side and whispered: "I have earned more than 90,000 yuan from last month to this month, and there are still more than 30,000 yuan in the account." Jiaming, the second aunt is a little scared, a ceramic basin for washing face, the purchase price is only thirty-eight yuan, and your uncle's price is two hundred, those people don't even talk about the price to buy it!"
What is this expensive? Labor and auxiliary materials cost money.
You don't know, just those hoses cost ten yuan a meter, and your uncle dares to charge people fifty yuan a meter, and he said that he didn't make a penny, saying that it was a stainless steel hose!"
Li Jiaming was also taken aback, he only knew about this profiteering before, but he didn't expect such a profiteering, no wonder the second aunt became afraid. Also, these businesses are all introduced by Brother Hao, if it is not an official who receives gifts and is soft, or a businessman who has made a fortune, as long as the quality of service and decoration is good, and tens of thousands of yuan is spent to decorate the house, how can people blink their eyes?
Don't look at the frighteningly low average salary now, the rich are still frighteningly rich, as long as you are bold enough and lucky enough in this era, it is a matter of minutes to get rich. Didn't you just empty your gloves and make a lot of money with a few words?
"Jiaming, Chuanjian said that business will not be so good in the future, is it true?"
"It should be, but there will be more people decorating in the future, and business will be better again, but it won't make so much money. People have a comparison mentality, and when they see other people's beautiful homes, they will also think about decorating. It's just that rich people are a minority after all, and the vast majority of people will not be like those people introduced by Brother Hao, and they don't take money seriously. ”
Li Jiaming explained a few words and sighed: "Hey, the uncle is poor and afraid, and he is reluctant to spend even this little money, and he wants the aunt to help in the store, so that he can earn a salary and take care of the four children nearby, which may not be crooked." Second aunt, the uncle is a smart person, the store is so profitable, he is afraid of getting a small advantage, let Uncle Chuan Meng kick him out. ”
"Well, Brother Chuanmeng is too careful."
Knowing the uncle's personality, the second aunt, who blindly trusted her nephew, also nodded her head again and again, and whispered: "You are better at talking, why don't you go and talk to your sister-in-law and let her go to the county to rent a house?" ”
It's been more than two months, and they are all rough people, and they haven't returned home to make money. It is estimated that except for the second aunt, the other aunts still don't know how profitable the store is, and the eldest aunt still saves her life as before, and wants to save every penny for her four sons to study. Li Jiaming doesn't do this job, this is a job to earn favors, and he has to let the second aunt do it.
"Second aunt, you go and tell the aunt, if she knew that the store was so profitable, she would be willing to give up that money. Even if the wages and expenses of the workers are excluded, the uncle can earn thousands of yuan a month, so what do you need to do with the things in the fields? I have a grudge against her, and she will not listen to what I say. ”
"yes, yes, I want her to keep her mouth tight."
The second aunt then remembered the events of the beginning of the year, turned her head and went to the vegetable garden, and also remembered that when she went home, Chuanjian repeatedly told her that her mouth should be strict, and her wealth should not be exposed. This is the right reason, even if it is not as scary as the eldest brother said, the relatives who come to borrow money alone will annoy people to death. In the past, when there was an accident in his own family, except for his brothers and sisters and the cousin in his grandmother's house, no one stretched out a finger.
Li Jiaming pushed the car home, looked at the ground that was not too clean, and happily signed the small book stuffed by the full sister. Child, I don't expect her to really work like an adult, as long as she understands that it is not easy to make money, there is no need to be so strict.
Li Jiaming tasted half of the sweet and greasy cream cake in the hands of the little sister who ate with a small face, and motioned to the hairy tong and the thin dog who were eating happily to go for a run. As soon as the three of them went out, the full sister who was also dazzled by the cream immediately put her arms around the neck of the little sister who was eating the cake and whispered in her ear: "Sister, go home and sweep the floor, I deliberately got dirty." ”
Although the little sister has no psychological shadow, she is still a little weak when she does such a bad thing, and her little mouth, which is stained with white flower cream, also leans into her sister's ear and whispers: "Will my brother scold me?"
"You went to Grandma's house yesterday, and you didn't make a dime less!
"Hmm", the little sister grabbed a piece of cake from the table and stuffed it into her mouth, grabbed another piece with one hand and chased after it. A dime is already a lot for children, and their favorite 'sour plum rice portion' is only sold for a dime.
When Li Jiaming returned home with his sister who was chasing him, he couldn't help crying and laughing when he looked at the wilting weeds and leaves on the floor of the hall. When I went out yesterday, my little sister had just swept the floor and got a signature of herself, and my sister was too fake, right?
"Brother, I'm going to sweep the floor!"
"Well, it's very dirty, come back".
"Oh"
Seeing that the little girl who was still holding the cake in her mouth blushed and didn't dare to look at herself, Li Jiaming took a towel to wipe off the cream on her face, turned her head and snickered. A child is a child, and each piece of the cake they just ate is enough for them to sweep the floor at least twice, but they are still happy to sweep it.
The money you earn is different from the money given by others, even if it's just a dime. The same is true for the university entrance examination, there is an essential difference between relying on the family to walk through the door to the university and relying on your own efforts to get in. This essential difference, in fashionable parlance, is the sense of accomplishment that comes after success. Don't underestimate that feeling, it can make people motivated, self-reliant, and become a real person, not a parasite of society.
When Li Jiaming supervised Mao Tong and the thin dog to finish running, took a few little guys to take a cold shower and went home for dinner, several aunts seemed to be busy, but everyone was glazed, and only the third sister who didn't know what to do was stir-frying alone.
Well, you don't need to remind yourself this time, the aunts all know that their wealth is not exposed. There are few bad people in Chongxiang, everyone looks down and doesn't look up, and officials and gangsters have to worry about fame. It's not as good as this on the same ancient street, the Li family has no power, if you like to show off again, maybe when you will be in trouble. The officials and gangsters in this year are all shameless for money, and they dare to do anything for money.
If it weren't for the fact that there were two principals behind him, a distant grandfather who was the deputy secretary of the township government, and he called Zhang Jianjun, the head of the land, the third uncle, and a teenager who dared to fry in a storefront on the street?
If you have wealth but no strength, it's a piece of fat, and it's the kind that anyone can take a bite of!
