214 Chapter 213, Wish Fulfillment
When he saw Ji Yuanyuan come out, he stood up and looked at her. “Are you tired?”
Ji Yuanyuan shook her head. “I’m not tired!”
Qin Mucheng then held Ji Yuanyuan’s hand. “Let’s go over there and play!”
With Gong Wenbai around, Li Xu wasn’t worried at all. She continued to sell her vegetables.
Around nine o’clock, the landlord came over.
He was here to handle the [purchase of the store. Seeing the situation, Li Xu hurriedly said, “Please wait for a while. I’ll call my husband. He’ll be back soon.”
The landlord nodded and stood at the door, waiting. While waiting, he kept sizing up the store. His eyes were full of reluctance.
Li Xu hurriedly called Zhang Kun. Zhang Kun came in less than fifteen minutes.
“Alright, I’ll lock the door. Let’s go after we get our documents.”Li Xu quickly took the lock beside her and was about to close the door.
Qin Mucheng and Ji Yuanyuan were standing by the side. Hearing this, Qin Mucheng said crisply, “Auntie, you don’t have to close the store. Sister Yuanyuan and I can help you look after it.”
Hearing this, Li Xu was a little hesitant.
There weren’t many people at this hour. With a few children and Gong Wenbai around, nothing would happen.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Qin Mucheng’s eager expression and said, “Mom, don’t worry about it. I’ll take care of the shop.”
Li Xu didn’t hesitate anymore. She turned around and returned to the cashier counter. She opened the cabinet inside and took the stack of 100 Yuan. Then, she instructed the children, “Alright, I’ll leave the shop to you.”
Then, she looked at Gong Wenbai and said, “I’ll trouble you then.”
Gong Wenbai said politely, “It’s no trouble.”
Only then did Li Xu leave with Zhang Kun and the landlord.
After she took all the money, there was only some change left in the cabinet. It added up to about 300 to 400 Yuan. They could do whatever they wanted.
After Li Xu left, Qin Mucheng quickly pulled Ji Yuanyuan to the back of the cashier counter.
“If there are customers later, I will be in charge of weighing and calculating. You will be in charge of finding the change!” Qin Mucheng said while touching the calculator.
When he stood across the road and looked at them, he thought, “It would be great if the people standing here were Sister Yuanyuan and me.”.
He didn’t expect this wish to be realized so quickly.
He could experience the feeling of being a boss, and he could also experience the feeling of being a boss with Sister Yuanyuan.
Qin Mucheng felt very happy and touched everything.
“But Brother Mucheng, have you ever thought about one thing?” Ji Yuanyuan said helplessly.
“What thing?” Qin Mucheng was in the midst of excitement and asked carelessly.
“You don’t know the price of vegetables? How do you calculate the price?”Ji Yuanyuan suggested, “Why don’t we exchange? You are responsible for finding the change for the customers.”
Hearing that, Qin Mucheng shook his head and said, “No, weighing is very tiring. The heavy work should be left to the boys. Tell me the prices of various vegetables. I can remember them.”
Ji Yuanyuan was a little surprised. “There are so many vegetables. Can you remember everything?”
Qin Mucheng nodded solemnly. “Yes, I can. My memory has always been excellent.”
Although Ji Yuanyuan was a little skeptical, she still patiently told Qin Mucheng, “Tomatoes cost 70 cents a pound, eggplant and cucumbers cost 60 cents a pound, spinach and leeks cost 55 cents, radishes cost 30 cents…”
Ji Yuanyuan told the prices of all the vegetables in the shop in one go, then she looked at Qin Mucheng. “Remember as much as you can. If you can’t remember, just ask me later. Besides being very busy in the morning, there won’t be many people coming in the later time. Brother Mucheng, don’t be nervous.”
Qin Mucheng blinked and suddenly said, “Tomatoes cost 70 cents a pound, eggplants and cucumbers cost 60 cents a pound, spinach and leeks cost 55 cents, radishes cost 30 cents…”
He actually repeated exactly the price that Ji Yuanyuan mentioned just now.
After he said that, Ji Yuanyuan looked at him in surprise. “You… really remembered it all?”
When Qin Mucheng saw Ji Yuanyuan’s surprised expression, he couldn’t help but look a little proud. “Of course. I’ve already told you that my memory is excellent.”
This time, Ji Yuanyuan really believed him.
She swallowed her saliva and gave Qin mucheng a thumbs up. “Brother Mucheng, you’re really amazing!”
In her previous life, she and Qin Mucheng had been husband and wife for three years, but she didn’t know that he had such a skill!
Qin Mucheng pursed his lips and said in a low voice, “It’s nothing…”
As the two of them were talking, a customer came in.
Seeing two children standing behind the cash register, the customer looked around and asked, “Where’s the boss? The boss isn’t here?”
Ji Yuanyuan explained, “My Mother is out on business. If you want to buy anything, just take it. We can count the price.”
The customer smiled. “Forget it. I’m not in a hurry. I’ll come back in the afternoon.”
It was obvious that he didn’t trust the two of them. Qin Mucheng was so smart, how could he not see through this?
Therefore, Qin Mucheng’s expression was obviously a little disappointed after the customer said this.
How could Ji Yuanyuan bear to let Qin Mucheng have that kind of expression? So she immediately told the customer, “Sister, just buy it. The two of us really know how to count the price. If we count them wrong, we won’t take your money.”
The customer was a woman in her thirties. She was immediately in a good mood after being called sister.
In addition, Ji Yuanyuan promised to not take her money if they didn’t do it right, so the customer immediately changed her mind.
She turned around and returned to the store. She pulled out a plastic bag and started to put in the vegetables she wanted.
Ji Yuanyuan and Qin Mucheng, who were behind the cash register, looked at each other and smiled.
The woman came back quickly with three bags in her hands. They were cucumber, eggplant, and spinach.
Qin Mucheng took the vegetables skillfully. He weighed them on the scale one by one. “Cucumber weighs 5.2 pounds. Eggplant weighs 3.9 pounds. That’s a total of 9.5 pounds. The price of these two items are 6 cents a pound. That’s a total of 5 Yuan and 7 cents. Spinach weighs a little more than 2 pounds. I’ll give you 2 pounds. Its price is 55 cents a pound. That’s a total of 1 Yuan 1 cents. Adding all three together, it’s a total of 6.80 Yuan!”
The woman did not say anything. She calculated in her heart for a long time, and then awkwardly realized that this child’s calculations did not seem to be wrong at all.
She took out seven dollars from her pocket and handed it over.
Ji Yuanyuan received the money, took out two one-cent coins from the drawer, and placed them in the woman’s hand.
“Thank you for your patronage. Please came again!”
The two of them said almost at the same time.
After the woman left, Ji Yuanyuan looked at Qin Mucheng.
Qin Mucheng rubbed his head and said in a silly manner, “I saw you shouted that when I was outside just now.”
Ji Yuanyuan revealed a sweet smile and gave Qin Mucheng a thumbs up.
Then, she sighed in her heart.
How would the Qin family feel if they knew their precious eldest grandson was experiencing selling vegetables here and was especially happy?
They should feel very complicated, right?
