Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich

Chapter 100: I Can Lend You 1,500 Yuan

Zhen Miaohong went to boil the water first. After it boiled, it was ready for the milk powder.

When Xiao Renren saw that his mother had taken out the milk bottle and milk powder, he knew he was going to eat. He clapped his hands very happily, and his tiny mouth was also grinning.

Zhen Miaohong saw his rare actions, so she picked up Xiao Renren. She smiled and said, “Aiyo, he’s so happy when he knows that he’s going to eat.”

She had a son and a daughter, but they did not live here. They lived in the college town. There was also a high school on the other side of the college town. Both of her children were in high school, and her son was going to take the college entrance exam this year.

Her daughter was a sophomore in high school this year. Both were grown and very independent. They were long past Xiao Renren’s age.

Xiao Renren looked at her as a stranger, but he saw that his mother was right next to her, so he was relieved and didn’t throw a tantrum.

Su Danhong got some warm water first to hold him out, otherwise he would make a fuss if he had to wait a long time.

“I'm going into the college town in a few days. My kid is going to take the college entrance exam soon. I'm going to cook for him,” Zhen Miaohong said with a smile.

Su Danhong nodded and said, “The college entrance exam is a big deal. Sister Hong, you should really take care of him.”

She had met Zhen Miaohong's son and daughter. They visited during the New Year Festival. However, as for Zhen Miaohong's husband, she and Ji Jianyun had never seen him before. She heard that he was in another province, and did not come back for the New Year. They didn’t ask for more details. Anyway, he wasn’t a secret since he was a government employee. In recent years, development was occurring everywhere, and it was normal for someone to be extremely busy.

When the water was warm, Su Danhong mixed the milk and handed it to Xiao Renren, who had grown impatient after a long time that he was swallowing his own saliva. Xiao Renren immediately went from a state of anxiety to a state of calmness. The little guy’s expression changed very quickly.

Su Danhong chatted with sister Hong. It was almost 10:30 when she brought Xiao Renren to Su Jindang’s shop.

“You came, sister-in-law.” Second Su sister-in-law was very happy to see her. After taking care of a customer, she rushed to come out to welcome them.

“Second Su sister-in-law, you’re busy. We'll talk when you're done,” Su Danhong grinned.

Second Su sister-in-law nodded. She gestured to the two aunts to buy some vegetables and gave them their change. One aunt asked for a spring onion, and she responded that it was a freebie. This made the two aunts very happy.

Su Danhong saw this and thought that her second sister-in-law really knew how to do business.

This spring onion was naturally worth nothing in the eyes of someone from the village, but some people from this town didn’t own land and needed to spend money to buy a spring onion. The way she gave them the spring onion would, without a doubt, attract more customers.

This was how business worked. With a welcoming attitude, their business would not be that bad.

“Sister-in-law, why are you here by yourself? Where is Jianyun?” Second Su sister-in-law asked.

“He’s busy, so I took Renren out for a walk. How’s business going?” Su Danhong replied.

When the topic was about their business, second Su sister-in-law was obviously very happy. She didn’t talk about it with anyone else except for Su Danhong.

Currently, Su Jindang went to the countryside to collect vegetables from the villagers every day. Since it was collected at once and it was convenient, it saved the villagers from transporting it into town themselves to sell. Thus, Su Jindang profited from this price difference.

The price difference was not much, but it added up to a lot. At the end of the day, after deducting the cost of gas and so on, they earned almost two yuan. At two yuan a day, it could be 50 or 60 yuan a month!

Even though everyone's wages had gone up, it only went up to about 25 yuan a month. They were already earning a lot higher than this. Including the money they earned from selling eggs and chicken, their income was almost 100 yuan a month!

Second Su sister-in-law had never thought that life could be so much better!

And her family’s expenses were not big. Basically, most of the money could be saved.

Second Su sister-in-law's whole demeanor was completely different from what it used to be. There was still a touch of gloominess from the past, but she now had energy and a little bit of spirited spark.

She had a job to make a living from, had given birth to a son, and Su Jindang was doing better. What else did she have to worry about?

Su Danhong giggled when she heard her mention their profits. She asked, “By the way, where are my second brother and my nephew?”

“Shitao is sleeping. Jindang is killing chickens inside. A customer will be coming soon for it,” Second Su sister-in-law replied.

Su Danhong nodded. Ji Jianyun had searched for the shop location. Although the area was not too busy, it was not completely remote. The place was big. Business could be done outside, and there was a courtyard to live in inside.

Su Danhong was about to say something when she saw another man come in to buy food with his granddaughter as he carried her school bag. “I'll go in and find my second brother,” she said.

“Okay,” Second Su sister-in-law said and went to take care of the customer.

Su Danhong went in. Su Jindang had finished killing the chicken and was cleaning the courtyard.

When he saw her coming, he smiled and asked, “Danhong, what are you doing here? Is Jianyun here, too?”

“He didn't come. I took Renren out for a walk. Please give me a ride later, second brother. I forgot to bring my umbrella when I came out today,” Su Danhong said.

“All right,” Su Jindang nodded and said to her. “Danhong, take Renren into the room first. The smell in this courtyard is a little strong. I'll wash it first.”

Su Danhong saw that Xiao Renren was actually frowning, so she agreed and carried the boy inside.

The courtyard to the house was a bit far. Once she reached the house, there was still a smell, but it was faint.

“Second brother, business is better now. Have you ever thought about buying this place?” Su Danhong questioned.

“Buy the house?” Shocked, Su Jindang shook his head. He continued, “That will require a lot of money.”

The house was really good. It had been built for only a few years. The landlord of this house did business in Jiangshui City. He bought a house over there and his entire family moved. Rent was paid once a year, which saved them from having to come back to collect the rent once a month.

Truthfully speaking, if this house could be bought, then it would definitely be wanted. Su Jindang was ready. He was going to be working in the town in the future, and he had no intentions of going back. Renting a place was not great, so he must buy a place in town.

“Did you ask how much it would cost?” Su Danhong wondered.

“I have heard Jianyun say that the landlord wanted to sell it, but he asked for 2,500 yuan. How can I come up with that much money? I'll rent it for the time being,” Su Jindang explained.

2,500?

Su Danhong looked at the courtyard and felt that it was not expensive. There were three rooms, a kitchen and bathrooms were a separate space. It was all very new. There was also the shop outside, which must have been used by the landlord to do business. Everything was perfect.

“You’re still renting, so there's no hurry. Second brother, earn the money first. When you're ready to buy it, come and tell me so I can lend you 1,500 yuan,” Su Danhong said.
