Chapter 43 Small Business
"Ah Xiu, why did you come out?" At this time, Yang Qingmei also chased her out of the gambling house, but she turned back in three steps, obviously there was something in it that attracted her.
As he spoke, he seemed to think of something, and took out a string of copper coins and two small pieces of silver from his hand and stuffed them into Yang Xiuxiu's hand, "Seeing that I forgot that you didn't bring any money, come, I'll borrow you first, go." ”
After giving the money, Yang Qingmei decided that Yang Xiuxiu must have no worries this time, so she pulled her back and prepared to fight in the casino again.
Yang Xiuxiu made a backhand, grabbed Yang Qingmei, and stuffed all the money back to others. "Qingmei, I will never set foot in a casino again from now on."
Yang Xiuxiu's expression was stern at this time, and her tone was serious, and it was clearly not like she was joking.
Yang Qingmei came back to her senses, still with an inexplicable feeling, but she didn't say anything more, but withdrew her hand, tightened the silver in her hand, and then returned to the gambling house alone.
What to quit gambling or not, in Yang Qingmei's opinion, it is simply a big joke.
When they were very young, the two of them would sneak into the gambling house to gamble for money. For a long time, when did they lose money, they didn't shout and shout to their parents to promise that they would not gamble again, but when did they take it seriously? Which time has it been counted?
Yang Qingmei didn't fail to find the reason why Yang Xiuxiu didn't gamble today, I guess she didn't want to borrow money from her, for fear of losing face, right? After all, although the person she married had a bad face and reputation, he was rich and had good food and drink on weekdays.
And Xiuxiu, although she married the half-baked Xiucai Lang in Taoli Village, she couldn't help being poor! I can't eat enough for these three meals, and when I compare it in front of her, even if it is a good handkerchief, my mood will change, right? Yang Qingmei thought.
Whatever, it's better to gamble, she believes that Xiuxiu will come back to the gambling house sooner or later.
Leaving the gambling house, Yang Xiuxiu was also thinking about her own affairs. More or less, she is still a little high-minded, there is a way that 'a gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way', she is unwilling to follow Yang Xiuxiu's old path, let alone let herself be contaminated with these vices.
Sometimes it takes three years to learn well, but it is a matter of minutes to learn badly, which is the truth that my mother taught from childhood to adulthood. It is not difficult for her to imagine what it will be like for her and Yang Qingmei, two people who once smelled like each other, to come together again.
Now making money is the most important thing, but the mentality needs to be corrected again.
Like the small village and small town she is in now, it is definitely unrealistic to want to make a lot of money all at once. Everything must be down-to-earth, step by step, Yang Xiuxiu feels that if she continues to be so eager for quick success, she has to let herself be forced to death, and her greed is not enough to swallow an elephant!
Now that she has thought it through, Yang Xiuxiu has observed this small town, if it is a small business, why will it be more profitable?
She doesn't have any money in her pocket now, and some of it is someone else's, so if she wants to rent a storefront, it will be too listless, and if she loses all her money, she really won't even have a chance to make a comeback.
Yang Xiuxiu thought about it as she walked, and the stall selling wontons on the side of the road quickly attracted her attention, maybe this is a very good initial job, setting up a food stall? This plan was quickly determined by Yang Xiuxiu.
As for selling wontons, it is definitely not good, she is not willing to openly go to grab business from others, as well as Yangchun noodles and rice balls,... These were all excluded by her.
Whether it is modern or ancient, things must be good first, and secondly, if you want to attract more customers, your selling point must be different from others. What is there in ancient times, and it is a small business that can be guaranteed to be profitable?
The first thing that flashed in Yang Xiuxiu's mind was hot pot, but it was quickly ruled out. Hot pot is a little taller for her now, so it's better for her to make a 'little hot pot'!
If you want to say what this 'little hot pot' is, Yang Xiuxiu has already started to be silly when she thinks of this, it seems that this time she has finally found the right way.
Yang Xiuxiu's brain is now extremely excited, and the enthusiasm is high, and the ambition of a career-oriented woman has come back again.
Since she was on the right path, she decided to do this business, and she acted as resolute as she was, and soon asked someone where the wooden cart was customized. I hurried over, and told the boss a few requirements, knowing that a wooden cart would cost one or two or two hundred yuan, and the price was finally set at one or two silver. Yang Xiuxiu first paid a deposit of 200 copper coins, and then left.
This time, she came to the shop that sold pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and asked the boss for the cheapest ink, the cheapest brush, and the cheapest paper, which cost a total of six yuan.
Next, she bought another 20 catties of cornmeal, 8 cents per catty of cornmeal, and spent a total of 160 cents. Halfway through, Yang Xiuxiu spent five cents to buy two meat buns for Nancy to go back.
Yang Xiuxiu knows very well that her current qiē is done with other people's money. Therefore, she didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and as soon as she got home, she seriously remembered things with the pen, ink and paper she bought.
"Mother, what is this?" Nancy was eating meat buns, probing her brain to study what Yang Xiuxiu was messing with.
"This is my mother's plan to make a fortune!" Yang Xiuxiu said proudly to Nancy.
"What's a plan to make a fortune?" Nancy is still a child, where does he understand this, but when he saw his mother's smile, he became interested and continued to ask.
"This is a big plan to make a fortune, that is, you can buy meat buns for our little Nancy every day in the future, okay?" Yang Xiuxiu took Nancy into her arms and made Nancy giggle.
By the way, I forgot to mention that her plan to make a fortune is nothing else, which is to sell Malatang.
When she went out to sell dry goods today, she mentioned that the crops in this era were too cheap, and as a seller, she suffered a loss at the beginning, so she directly changed her side to become a buyer, which is not to be sent.
As for the aforementioned 'small hot pot', Yang Xiuxiu also added a little bit of her own creativity. Her wooden cart made two stoves for making fires, and Yang Xiuxiu planned to have a pork bone soup base on one side and a beef offal soup base on the other, anyway, Ren Jun would choose the right one at that time.
Next, she just needs to follow the menu she just wrote, wash and cut the dishes and make backups. As for the issue of preservation, hehe... It's time for space to shine again.
However, before that, Yang Xiuxiu still needs to go to the county office, and it is said that there is also an official document to set up a stall on the street corner. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a business license.
Unexpectedly, even if it is a 'small business' in Yang Xiuxiu's mouth, it is not so easy to do. What's more, in this era, there is still the class concept of Shinong industry and commerce, and Yang Xiuxiu is bound to have few supporters if he wants to engage in business. Especially for these peasant families, arable land is the foundation!
But so what, is it more important than filling your stomach?
