Back to the Sixties: Farm, Get Wealthy & Raise the Cubs-Novel2

Chapter 313. Xu Sheng Mei

Since the decision was to go over, it went without saying a shop was needed.

"I will keep an eye for a shop for you. If there is something suitable, I will arrange it for you. It will be fine to pay the rent a few months in advance. But in my opinion, the best path is to buy it directly." Lin Qing He said.

"Fourth Sister-in-law, did you buy the shop yourself or rent it?" Zhou Xiao Mei whispered.

Lin Qing He grinned. Looking at her and Su Da Lin: "I’ll tell you, but don’t tell anyone about it. That shop, your brother and I spent our entire fortune and bought it.

"You really bought it?" Zhou Xiao Mei exclaimed.

Su Da Lin wasn’t surprised. After all, their household registration was moved to the capital. They will stay in the capital in the future. It was also necessary to buy a shop there to run it well.

"En." Lin Qing He nodded.

"How much?" Zhou Xiao Mei could not help ask.

"Three thousand or so." Lin Qing He answered.

"That expensive?" Zhou Xiao Mei was stunned. In the past few years, she and Su Da Lin had gathered small savings. For a family to have around 3,000 yuans, it was definitely quite an achievement. They never thought that a shop in the capital was this much.

"Our shop is a duplex. It got a second floor on the top that can be used as a living space. You can rent a smaller one. A bun shop doesn’t need to be too big. People can eat it on the road." Lin Qing He stated: "But I still think it’s better to be bigger. If it’s not a duplex, it can decrease to two thousand yuans."

"Let’s rent it first." Zhou Xiao Mei shook her head.

Lin Qing He didn’t persuade them anymore. When they see the benefits, they’ll want to buy it.

"By the way, my third brother is going to buy a shop in the city. Do have you any suggestions?" Lin Qing He asked.

After all, both of them live in the city. They were relatively familiar.

"Brother-in-law is going to open a shop in the city?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked in surprise.

"Yeah, he plans to open one this year." Lin Qing He nodded, "I wanted to suggest that if you weren’t going to go to the capital."

"But what is he going to sell?" Zhou Xiao Mei could not help utter.

"Whatever edible in the countryside. Why can’t it be sold?" Lin Qing He said.

"I... I’m going to find... my Aunt and ask... ask." Su Da Lin said.

He really didn’t know much about this. But his Aunt must know. After all, her information was relatively up-to-date.

"Then I must trouble you, Brother-in-law." Lin Qing He nodded.

"Fourth Sister-in-law, is opening a shop now that good?" Zhou Xiao Mei asked.

"I don’t know how to explain. All in all, it will be a popular industry in the next few years." Lin Qing He smilingly responded.

In the early 1980s, the street stalls were very popular. After the mid-1980s, self-employment was the norm. It can continue until the 1990s. Now they open a shop and operate well, they will become established shops by then. Would the business do badly?

Around eleven o’clock, Eldest Sister, Eldest Brother-in-law, Second Sister and Second Brother-in-law came.

Eldest Sister had brought her 17-year-old third daughter, named Xu Sheng Mei. She was pretty looking.

It’s just her courage was a little small. She didn’t dare to look at people when speaking. Her eyes were wandering around and her gaze was dodging. Even if they were a stranger, why would such a big girl, be scared of coming to her uncle’s house?

"Sheng Mei, come. Have sweets." However, it wasn’t her daughter. Lin Qing He just entertained her and didn’t dare to say anything more. She passed her two sweets to eat.

"Thank you, Aunt." Xu Sheng Mei said shyly.

"Qing He, I heard that Qing Bai’s Dumpling Shop is doing well. My family’s girl is nimble. I was thinking since she got nothing to do at home, how about bringing her to the capital to help out?" Eldest Sister spoke: "You don’t need to pay her. It’s enough to just let this girl go over and help."

Lin Qing He glanced at Xu Sheng Mei. Xu Sheng Mei’s face was flushed and didn’t give any explanation.

But really, Lin Qing He’s shop had one vacancy. The clothing shop got to have two people keeping watch. It wasn’t sufficient to rely on one.

Lin Qing He had originally planned to go to the capital city to find another one. Still, it was her niece, so Lin Qing He was also willing to promote her.

"Sheng Mei is a little shy, I’m worried she can’t serve the guests." Lin Qing He expressed with a smile.

"It doesn’t matter if she can’t serve. Just let her wash the dishes like Er Ni." Eldest Sister replied.

Obviously, she heard it from Eldest Sister-in-law at old Zhou’s house.

Eldest Sister-in-law took into observation that she had brought Xu Sheng Mei over, so how could she not know her intentions? Naturally, she will mention it.

Lin Qing He didn’t bring up selling clothes even when they assumed they’ll be working in a dumpling shop.

However, Lin Qing He didn’t intend to say it. When they reached the capital, they’ll naturally know.

"Can Sheng Mei read?" Lin Qing He continued asking.

"No...no." Xu Sheng Mei’s face flushed a little more.

Not all mothers were like Eldest Sister-in-law and Third Sister-in-law, who were willing to let their daughters go to school.

Of course, under her exaggeration, both Third Brother Lin and Third Sister-in-law Lin were willing to let their girls study, even for a few years. At least better than being illiterate.

"Since no, then the salary will be less than Er Ni’s. Don’t find it strange. Er Ni is a literate student. She will have to record bills and calculate things. Her work will be much more than you." Lin Qing He straightforwardly told.

"She won’t. It’s all good that you are willing to bring her there. Without pay is fine." Eldest Sister hurriedly interjected.

Lin Qing He smiled and said, "No payment won’t happen. The salary she desired will be paid to Sheng Mei. However, Sheng Mei, you got to be bolder. You’re a big girl now. Being so beautiful, be more generous."

Xu Sheng Mei pursed her mouth. She raised her face and said: "Aunt, I...I will do my best."

Lin Qing He nodded, "If you don’t understand, just ask me."

Second Sister opened her mouth with slight embarrassment, "Qing He, do you need a boy over there?" action

Hearing this, Lin Qing He laughed and answered, "I do. Who do you plan to recommend to me, Second Sister?"

Lin Qing He was willing to promote and bring her her nephews and nieces over, as long as they were good.

When they step out, as long as they don’t take a crooked road, they won’t do badly.

"What do you think of my Hu Zi?" Second Sister did not expect her to agree, so she quickly said.

Second Sister didn’t plan to do this and didn’t know there was a staff shortage. She felt that boys were clumsy. What could he do?

So she didn’t even bring him here.

However, her heart slightly moved at this moment.

The Lu Zi she mentioned was her third son. He ranked third in the family. The eldest was a son. The second was a daughter. This Lu Zi was ranked third. This year, he was also seventeen years old. Born the same year as Xu Sheng Me. Just younger than Xu Sheng Mei by one month.
