Rebirth to the Eighties to Get Rich - Chapter 131: Lao Qin's Business

Chapter 131: Lao Qin’s Business

Mother Su had already heated up the kang and was waiting for Su Danhong’s family.

Today, her eldest son and second son both went to give their New Year’s greetings to their wives families, so she was the only one at home.

Thus, Ji Jianyun, Su Danhong and Xiao Renren were warmly welcomed.

“Oh! Grandma’s grandson has grown a lot this year. Last year, he was still an infant. This year, he can sit on his own and everyone knows it,” Mother Su said with the biggest grin on her face.

Renren didn’t really want to be carried by anyone now. He could sit on his own and crawl around. He did whatever he wanted, and wasn’t that nice? It’s inconvenient to go anywhere if he needed to be carried.

Mother Su went and brought out some oranges. When Renren saw that there was something to eat with his black eyes. He sat quietly and knew that it was for him.

“Mother, don’t spoil this boy,” Su Danhong said.

“He’s my grandson. Who else can I spoil if it’s not him?” Mother Su said in a matter of fact tone.

With that, she peeled an orange for her grandson. The orange was delicious. Su Danhong also ate one. Renren was very happy.

“When he comes here next year, he will be able to call me grandma.” Mother Su smiled brightly. In the past year or two, Mother Su’s life had also been going very well. She had meat to eat every couple of days and her energy was up.

Moreover, when she went to town to help her second son, it was obvious that her second son had not treated her, his mother, poorly. Su Danhong looked at her mother’s clothes. It was newly bought. Su Danhong knew who bought them for her mother without asking.

“Mother, how are you doing when you are living in the town?” Su Danhong asked.

“Everything is good, but I’m so busy. You don’t know this, but when the door opens, it’s all business.” Mother Su didn’t keep it a secret from her daughter and even told her with Ji Jianyun there.

The old woman knew very well that no matter how good her second son’s business in the town was, he couldn’t compare with her son-in-law. That’s why there was no need to worry that her son-in-law would get jealous. Besides, her son-in-law was very upright, and he was not that kind of person.

Su Danhong said, “That’s good about the business. Mother, you have to help more often if you can since the shop is getting popular. The better the business is, the more people there will be to buy things.”

“Who says I won’t? You have to know, your second brother kills chicken every night until midnight these days. Otherwise, there will be no chickens to sell the next day. He will not kill them if he has to give the customers a cheaper price or if they don’t want any. They say they can take them back and freeze them, so they don’t have to bother to kill the chicken later,” Mother Su said.

“Good business is a good thing, but my second brother must pay attention to his health,” Su Danhong said.

“He’s still young. It’s better for him to earn more while he can make money. It’s just for the New Year. Afterwards, it’ll slow down and he can work on his health after,” Mother Su said indifferently.

Mother Su used to live a hard life. Naturally, her way of thinking was different. When they earn money, they must work hard for it. They couldn’t tell when the market would not be that great. Besides, didn’t Su Jindang need a lot of money?

“There’s no need to worry so much. I am confident about our chickens and eggs. Anyone who has eaten our chickens and eggs will definitely not want any of them from other people. They are not as good,” Su Danhong said with a smile.

Ji Jianyun was amused to see his wife praising them like this. But he also thought their chickens and eggs were the best. Every time he drove to the college town, all the aunts and uncles would scramble for some.

As soon as she said this, Mother Su also strongly agreed. She said, “You don’t need to say it. Mother thinks that the chickens and eggs you raise really taste better. Those raised by me can’t compare with yours. The eggs taste delicious, the chicken when stewed is also so aromatic. It feels very nutritious!”

This was not just her flattering her son-in-law’s work. This was her customer’s reaction. They say that the chickens and eggs sold by Su Jindang were very delicious. When they came to buy from Su Jindang, she would hear these things and she would be very proud.

“A few days ago, someone came to the mountain to buy eggs and live chickens in bulk,” Ji Jianyun said with a smile.

“That happened?” Mother Su was stunned.

“That’s right, but Jianyun didn’t agree to it. In our town, we can only let second brother sell it. We won’t give any to other businesses unless it’s someone from the county who comes to pick up the goods,” Su Danhong explained.

“People from the county also came to pick up things?” Mother Su thought to herself that her son-in-law was doing a great business.

“Yes. Jianyun has a comrade called Lao Qin. He helped sell goods for us before. Last year, he called Jianyun a year ago and asked him about planting fruit saplings. However, Jianyun suggested that he should not plant fruit saplings. He asked him to learn from second brother and open a shop in the county. He would come here to get live chickens and eggs. Lao Qin tried to open a store and business should be good,” Su Danhong clarified.

Lao Qin opened it last year. After that, he came over to pick up the goods several times and the money was calculated in person. Judging from his appearance, the business should be good.

“There aren’t that many chickens and eggs on the mountain.” Mother Su had to ask, “Is there enough?”

“Just these two businesses are enough.” Ji Jianyun grinned.

“In the future, the chicken coops will be expanded. I think once that happens we will not run out and might have to go to the college town to sell it. Mother, you don’t have to worry about no one buying my second brother eggs. Besides, we don’t have enough supply and no one can lose to my second brother’s business in town,” Su Danhong said.

Truthfully, Su Danhong didn’t really like Lao Qin’s wife. Last time, Lao Qin drove over to pick up things, Lao Qin’s wife said some rude things. She said that her orchard was only successful because Lao Qin gave them all the good saplings. Su Danhong became very irritated when she heard that.

What was Lao Qin’s wife trying to say? The saplings that Jianyun ordered were good, but they also paid a lot for it. Although Lao Qin was nice and did not charge an extravagant amount, he definitely didn’t get the short end of the stick. They could have saved on the initial cost of the saplings for the orchard if they wanted to.

Lao Qin’s wife also said that Lao Qin helped them sell goods out of his kindness and dignity as comrades, and Su Danhong didn’t like that.

Every time Lao Qin helped, Jianyun didn’t treat him unfairly. In addition to his payment, he was also given mutton and pork legs. She was never stingy because she could see that Jianyun and Lao Qin had a very strong relationship, so she was willing to give more to him. How could Lao Qin’s wife imply that she and Jianyun were big swindlers and cheating out on Lao Qin?

Lao Qin’s wife said all these things for one reason: she wanted a lower wholesale price.

But in all fairness, Jianyun was very supportive of Lao Qin opening a shop. Thus, the price he gave to Lao Qin was the same as the price given to her second brother. Was that not enough?

Su Danhong still treated Lao Qin warmly when he was there, even though she didn’t have the same view about his wife. Lao Qin also felt ashamed and embarrassed that time, so he didn’t bring his wife over here next time.

In this regard, Su Danhong was satisfied. She was willing to let Jianyun get closer to Lao Qin, but she was not willing to get closer to Lao Qin’s wife. However, in order to avoid Lao Qin from thinking too much, she gave him a packet of sugared pine nuts and asked him to take it back for his children to try. *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧ 𝕤𝕦𝕡𝕡𝕠𝕣𝕥 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕥𝕣𝕒𝕟𝕤𝕝𝕒𝕥𝕠𝕣 𝕒𝕟𝕕 𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕕 𝕠𝕟 𝕗𝕠𝕩𝕒𝕙𝕠𝕝𝕚𝕔.𝕔𝕠𝕞 ✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:*.

This showed that she disregarded what happened last time.

Lao Qin was also a smart man and he accepted it.

As for everything else about the business, Su Danhong didn’t interject anymore. This was a matter between the two men, and she should not interfere too much.
