Li Xu came to the shop and called home.
After waiting for ten minutes, Li Yong finally returned the call. “Big Sis, what’s wrong?”
His words were unclear as if there was something in his mouth.
’just now, when Xiao Gong sent the children back, she said that Uncle Qin had helped to find a vegetable buyer. They have high demand and will come to see the quality of the vegetables in the next few days. If It’s good, they can work with us for a long time.”
High demand and long-term cooperation.
Li Yong tried his best to swallow the rice in his mouth. Only then did he say excitedly, “Okay, Sister, I understand. Don’t worry. Our family vegetable’s quality is good. They definitely will be interested. Oh right, I’ve asked around these few days. There are a few families in our village who no longer live in the village. The land is not planted, and they want to sell it out. It’s a few dozen yuan per acres. It was very cheap. I plan to buy all of their land.”
“Alright, you and your Brother can discuss it. By the way, I’ve already found a store for my branch. It will be under renovation these few days, and I plan to open next Saturday. Send some vegetables on Friday afternoon. The more variety, the better,” Li Xu instructed.
…..
Li Yong sighed, “You found it so quickly!”
Then he said, “Don’t worry. I promise I won’t let you delay things.”
After hanging up, Li Yong handed the money in his hand to the owner of the small shop. He ran home excitedly and told Liu Guihua and Li Zhiming the good news.
After hanging up, Li Xu and Ji Yuanyuan stayed in the shop for a while and replenished the vegetables in the space.
The next day, the workers came and built the wall and suspended ceilings and painted them.
The place was not big, so it finished in a day.
Around six o’clock in the evening, Zhang Kun returned from work. He came over to check and receive the payment.
After the work was done, he just waited for the paint to dry and then opened the shop.
In the blink of an eye, it was Friday. At around two o’clock in the afternoon, Li Xu received a call from the shop owner who installed the signboard. She and Hu Chunli ran to the new shop to clean the place.
The signboard of the shop was exactly the same as the old shop. Even the size was about the same.
The shop owner came over with the signboard. In less than twenty minutes, the signboard was installed, and the front of the shop looked brand new.
After paying the shop owner, Li Xu brought Hu Chunli into the shop to clean up.
The shelves were all set up, and the cash register was wiped clean. The plastic bags to pack the vegetables hung on the shelves for easy access for the customers.
The bathroom door and the sink were also cleaned.
It was not until five o’clock that the rumbling sound of the tricycle came from afar.
The tricycle stopped at the entrance of the shop. Li Yong jumped out of the Tricycle, opened the backboard, and carried the vegetables down one basket after another.
Li Lei turned off the engine and followed.
The tricycle was full of all kinds of vegetables.
Tomatoes, eggplant, cucumbers, rape, spinach…
Most of them were off-season vegetables.
A few people carried all the vegetables into the shop. After weighing them, they put them back on the shelves.
The salary for Hu Chunli was calculated after deducting the cost, so all the goods that came in had to be weighed.
When the new shop opened, there was naturally a discount.
Therefore, there was no price tag on the shelves. Now, when the price was back to normal, it had to be torn off before replacing it again.
Li Xu planned to make a label tomorrow and put it outside to indicate the price.
If the low price was put outside, it could still attract customers.
She was busy until it was almost seven o’clock, and then she was done.
Li Xu estimated Zhang Kun had gone home a long time ago, and the meal was ready. She called out to the few of them, “Everyone, let’s go to my house to eat. We’ll leave after we finish eating!”
Li Lei and Li Yong naturally did not decline, but Hu Chunli said a little awkwardly, “Forget it, I won’t eat. I’ll just go home to eat.”
However, Li Xu pulled her along. “Let’s go. Jingyi is still at my house!”
At noon, she instructed the children to bring Jingyi to their house after school in the evening.
Hu Chunli was still hesitant. She never liked to trouble others.
Li Lei had already gotten into the tricycle and started it.
Li Yong took care of the two of them. “Hurry up, I’m starving to death.”
Hearing that, Li Xu quickly pulled Hu Chunli into the tricycle.
When they got home, the children had already finished eating and were huddled on the sofa watching TV.
Zhang Kun was busy in the kitchen. When he saw a few people enter, he quickly brought the dishes to the table.
He had cooked a few dishes in the evening and especially left more than half of each dish out.
When the dishes were served, he filled a bowl of rice for each person.
Hu Chunli sat at the dining table and looked at Zhang Kun’s busyness. Her eyes were filled with envy.
After dinner, Hu Chunli brought Yang Jingyi home. Before she left, Li Xu told her to go to bed early today. It was the first day of business the next morning, so they had to be there at six o’clock.
Before she went to bed, Li Xu took out a paper board and a marker pen and wrote down the prices of the vegetables on paper.
Special offer: The new store is open for business, all vegetables will be sold at half price!
After she finished writing, she smacked her lips in dissatisfaction. “This is too ugly.”
Zhang Kun leaned over and took a look. “It’s alright. As long as you can understand it!”
Li Xu rolled her eyes at him. “Don’t think that I can’t hear it. You’re mocking me!”
Zhang Kun smiled and patted her shoulder. “You can still tell!”
Ji Zi’ang looked at her and was eager to give it a try. “Mom, let me try!”
Since there were a lot of paper board at home, Li Xu did not stop him and handed him a paper shell. “Go write and play!”
Ji Zi’ang took another paper boards and handed it to Ji Zixuan. “Brother, let’s write together.”
Li Xu ignored them and continued writing.
Tomato 40 cents, eggplant 30 cents, cucumber 35 cents…
“Wow, Dad, Mom, Look! My Brother’s handwriting is really good!” At this moment, Ji Zi’ang suddenly chirped.
Li Xu heard his voice and looked over in surprise.
Ji Zixuan was writing on paper with a marker pen. His handwriting was sharp and neat.
Compared to the paper card in her hand, his handwriting was many times better.
Ji Zixuan’s handwriting had always been very good. Every time, his homework was passed around by the teacher as a model.
Li Xu just did not expect her son’s handwriting to be so good.
She handed the paper board in her hand to Ji Zixuan. “Son, write according to this!”
Ji Zixuan nodded and started writing seriously.
Ji Yuanyuan ran over and leaned on Li Xu’s shoulder to watch. She said enthusiastically, “Wow, Big Brother is amazing. Big Brother is good at studying, good-looking, and has good handwriting. Really amazing.”
Ji Zixuan had always been an introverted child. Hearing Ji Yuanyuan praises him so much. His ears turned red.
Li Xu looked at her son and felt a little conflicted.
She did not know when, but he had grown a lot taller. He looked like a little man now.
Just as Yuanyuan had said, he was outstanding in everything. He could do anything he wanted.
In fact, Yuanyuan was the same. She could do anything well. If she did not do something well, it must be because she did not want to.
Li Xu, this biological mother, had some filters on her eyes..
