[Part 3] Back To The Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise The Cubs

Chapter 422

Lin Qing He started her normal commuting life the next day. Basically, all of the shops in her hand were opened.

But these matters were left to Ma Cheng Min to manage.

Ma Cheng Min had recruited three new workers; a young lad and two young girls. All had some kind of relative relationship. The three of them were arranged to go to other shops to learn to serve guests. Hu Zi, Er Ni, and the others would mentor them.

As for Lin Qing He's fifth shop, the renovation had already begun. It wasn't at the place as the women's clothing shop and the men's clothing shop. Almost halfway to the beverage shop near the cinema.

This shop was bought by Zhou Qing Bai on 10th of January. The shop was really spacious. Although the price was slightly high, they didn't mind it.

At present, Ma Cheng Min had got someone to do the decoration. He had placed an order of a considerable amount of clothes with Wang Yuan's side.

"Order this much? Fourth Aunt is going to open another shop?" Wang Yuan was surprised when he got the order.

His childhood pal laughed: "Calling Fourth Aunt so smoothly. When do you plan to invite me for a wedding wine?"

This hit Wang Yuan's sore spot.

Wang Yuan sighed. He was already twenty-six this year. He wasn't young anymore. How can he not want to get married? But from what he saw that so far, Er Ni didn't have such thoughts.

Naturally, he wanted to coax her. But it was all going according to the rules. He couldn't even kiss her small mouth. At most, she let him hold hands and that was it.

"What? Still haven't got her tied yet." His childhood pal was surprised: "Didn't you take her back to show your parents during the New Year."

"I did, but you know my mother." Wang Yuan said.

Originally Er Ni's attitude was soft, but after seeing his parents... His father was fine. It was his mother's attitude at that time. Simply hurtful. It was the first girl he brought home. But his mother didn't give any face.

Knowing Er Ni got a rural household registration, she didn't say a word to Er Ni. How could Er Ni feel good?

However, this girl got a temperament too.

Wang Yuan rubbed his chin and beamed. His mother didn't like her and she didn't say a word to his mother. No fawning at all.

But really, Wang Yuan liked that little temperament.

"Enough, don't grin like that. Hurry up and marry her back and warm the quilt." His childhood pal uttered with disgust.

Wang Yuan handed over the matters in the factory to him and then came to find Zhou Er Ni.

Zhou Er Ni was at the clothing store. There wasn't much of a business as it was the off-peak season. When he arrived, Zhou Er Ni was teaching the two new girls Ma Cheng Min had brought. As for the guy, he was serving in the men's store across the street.

"Shan Shan, take them to fold clothes again." Zhou Er Ni saw Wang Yuan coming and instructed Chen Shan Shan.

"Okay." Chen Shan Shan responded.

Zhou Er was almost like the manager of this shop. She was basically in charge of everything in the shop.

"Why are you here?" Zhou Er Ni came out with Wang Yuan.

"Come to see you." Wang Yuan answered.

Zhou Er Ni glanced at him. Wang Yuan smilingly, "Let's watch the movies tonight?"

"No time. Night school is about to start, so I have to prepare for it," Zhou Er Ni said.

"Don't deceive me. Evening school will start at the end of January at the earliest." Wang Yuan said.

Zhou Er Ni didn't really want to go on dates with him. She had made a lot of small moves. "Then I must study."

"How much time can a movie take? What's there a new release today. It seems pretty interesting." Wang Yuan persuaded.

Unable to resist him, Zhou Er Ni finally agreed.

"I noticed Fourth Aunt ordered a lot of women's clothes. All of them are spring clothes. Can this women's shop alone be able to digest it all?" Wang Yuan asked.

"Fourth Aunt is going to open another shop on Yuan Street," Zhou Er Ni answered.

What's more, she'll help manage these women's clothing stores. Right now, the staff was being trained, Then one new recruit will stay with her. Chen Shan Shan will bring one new guy and one new girl to the new store.

"Aunt Fourth got the courage." Wang Yuan smiled.

One shop after another. There was quite a sum of them. What's more, one was a small workshop with a lot of staff. It was said to have a two-shift system set up.

Wang Yuan was currently studying this two-shift system and wanted to implement it in his garment factory.

Mother Zhou was also talking about her fourth daughter-in-law, Lin Qing He opening a new shop.

"So many shops, this... can she manage? Da Wa's mother has to go to work on most days. She is very busy." Mother Zhou couldn't help but say to Father Zhou.

How could Father Zhou understand these? He just uttered: "Kill two more chickens and send it over. More nourishment needed."

Mother Zhou nodded and stated, "I will catch a few more chicks this year." 

She also felt that Fourth's wife must be exhausted. So many shops as well as work. Simply a pile of matters.

In the bun shop, Zhou Xiao Mei was chatting to Su Da Lin. She emotionally remarked: "Fourth Sister-in-law is too capable. Compare with her, I seem useless. Da Lin, would you dislike me?"

"Like... like you." Su Da Lin responded.

Zhou Xiao Mei gave him a pleased eye-roll. Then she displayed some hesitation. Su Da Lin saw her like this and asked, "What...what's wrong?"

After a pause, Zhou Xiao Mei asked, "Da Lin, do you want to open another bun shop?"

Su Da Lin froze. At once, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh: "We...we...we are already...busy...with this one"

"I know, we are a little too busy with this." Zhou Xiaomei sighed.

The children were still young. Thankfully, her parents were here. Otherwise, they will be extremely busy. So she wanted to open another bun shop. Which was a bit too impetuous.

"First...buy... a...a house." Su Da Lin replied.

According to his plan, he wanted to buy a house first. Although his family saving wasn't small, not much either. After all, when he bought the bun shop, there wasn't much left.

And this year he had to buy freezers and the like, which also cost a lot. There were the children’s tuition and fees, daily expenses, etc piling up. Their income was considerable. Around four to five thousand annually, which is quite a lot. Still, it wasn't cheap to buy a better house now.

He had asked Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan bought a place near where they lived. It was a little bigger than the one they lived in and cost ten thousand.

Su Da Lin didn't plan to buy an apartment. The children couldn't fit in it. After all, they were used to living in a spacious area. He didn't dare to buy something as big as Wang Yuan. Something smaller. As long his family could live in it, it was fine.

But even so, at least six or seven thousand would have to be prepared. It would take a year or two to save this.

After all, it wasn't good to keep living with his father-in-law and mother-in-law.

"Listen to you." Zhou Xiao Mei nodded. They got to buy a house of their own. Her parents' place was originally rented by her fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law for her parent. There was no reason to keep living here. Having their own house was more practical.
