CHAPTER 34: CHAPTER 34: UNEXPECTED SALES

After all, when she was chatting with Lin Ye yesterday,

she learned about his family situation.

So, Jiang Xin knew that Lin Ye’s family condition was quite poor, and currently he probably didn’t have much money with him.

How can a person live without money in their pocket?

Food, clothing, housing, and transportation all require money.

Moreover, although Lin Ye is now the only one from his family, he still needs to cook and eat.

Therefore, Jiang Xin planned to give Lin Ye his salary in advance.

Besides, in her space, she had some food, fruits, and vegetables to give some to Lin Ye.

This way, he could save quite a bit on expenses.

Although the boss lady had already closed up, it was still her sister-in-law’s place, so she didn’t plan to stay long.

She had matters to attend to at home.

So, when Jiang Xin said goodbye to her sister-in-law, the boss lady also went downstairs with her.

Having just solved a major problem, this house was rented out, and half of her anxiety instantly vanished.

She chatted idly with Jiang Xin as they walked, and Jiang Xin was in a particularly good mood.

Originally, she was worried that the house would be hard to rent, fearing that her status as an outsider would make the landlord hesitant when renting to her.

But seeing how things turned out today, her worries were completely unnecessary.

If she had known it would be this smooth, she would have gone out to look for a house yesterday. Who knows, she might already have moved out from the Fu Family by now.

Jiang Xin thought she could move out and live on her own in about a month, which was an incredibly liberating thought.

Being away from her stingy husband and her malicious mother-in-law, Jiang Xin felt that temporarily, at least, Fu Yu’s father was still acceptable.

He was at least someone who could see things clearly.

Not too bad, after all.

As they walked and talked, they reached a place not far from the vegetable market.

The boss lady said goodbye to Jiang Xin.

Her home was near the vegetable market, so their paths diverged from there.

Jiang Xin smiled and bid farewell to the boss lady, thanking her for taking her to see the house today.

Jiang Xin knew in her heart that renting the house out made the boss lady very grateful to her.

Likewise, Jiang Xin was very grateful to the boss lady.

If it weren’t for her taking her to rent a house, who knows how long it would have taken for her to find a satisfactory one.

Moreover, the breakfast stall boss lady usually set up her stall in the market,

so renting this house was reliable.

The house belonged to her brother and sister-in-law, so if Jiang Xin found any issues with the house that she couldn’t resolve herself, she could go to the boss lady for help.

At least there was some assurance after the sale.

...

Once at the vegetable market, Jiang Xin went directly to where Lin Ye set up his stall.

Looking at houses and signing contracts had taken about two hours.

They’d left late in the first place, and after all this, it was already 11:30 AM.

Approaching lunchtime, Jiang Xin thought that if business wasn’t good, she would just have Lin Ye close up and go for lunch together.

After all, people need to eat to function, skipping a meal will leave you hungry.

While making money is important, health should be their first priority.

So, they must eat on time.

It’s unreasonable not to let your employee eat, even if they’re working for you, right?

That’s what Jiang Xin thought in her mind.

Once she arrived at the vegetable market and saw Lin Ye, Jiang Xin was directly stunned.

She looked down at the stall, where more than half of the goods had already been sold.

?!!

This was completely different from what she had imagined.

She had thought these things would be hard to sell.

Yet, the sales turned out to be much better than she had imagined!

It was truly an unexpected surprise.

Noticing a few people still browsing around the stall,

Jiang Xin thought for a moment and decided to join in.

After all, she was the real owner of the stall.

She couldn’t just leave everything to the employee and be an absentee boss, right?

Jiang Xin walked directly to Lin Ye and began to shout out.

"Stop by and take a look, everyone."

"Everything is on clearance sale, the more the quality, the more the goods are worth. Guaranteed quality, if you’re interested, come and have a look."

"I guarantee these are the lowest prices around!"

Thanks to Jiang Xin’s shout,

some people who had initially shown no interest in the stall also came over to look.

Lin Ye looked at Jiang Xin and gave her a thumbs-up, showing his admiration.

He had been shouting for a long while, yet had only sold a small amount. Moreover, the words he had said were far less abundant than what Jiang Xin had used.

Jiang Xin shouted energetically.

With more people gathering, business picked up.

In about half an hour, nearly everything was sold out.

Jiang Xin glanced at the stall and found it still had one lunchbox left.

She gestured to Lin Ye to close the stall.

That remaining lunchbox, Jiang Xin directly gave to Lin Ye:

"Take this lunchbox. When you come to sell goods in the future and there are lots of people, bring the lunchbox and go to the State-owned Restaurant for a meal."

"Let’s close the stall now since everything’s already sold out; that’s it for today. Let’s clock out early and go have lunch at the State-owned Restaurant."

After Jiang Xin said that, she began directing Lin Ye to pack up the plastic sheet covering the ground and put it into a sack.

Then she asked him to take it home, and bring it over when they set up the stall tomorrow.

Upon hearing Jiang Xin’s words, Lin Ye was utterly amazed.

He hadn’t expected Jiang Xin would let him finish work this early.

This was completely unlike what he had imagined.

He thought Jiang Xin would have him keep the stall open at the market until five or six in the afternoon.

After all, people in business all want to make money.

So why was Jiang Xin a little different from other bosses?

With a face full of bewilderment, Lin Ye took the lunchbox from Jiang Xin’s hand.

He asked incredulously:

"You mean... we’re done for today?"

"Isn’t it a bit early? Even though we’re sold out, shouldn’t we keep working?"

"Or... you could take me to your warehouse, and I can bring more goods over and sell them myself. You can head home first."

"Then, when you come over tomorrow, I’ll give you the money I’ve made."

Saying this, Lin Ye handed the money over to Jiang Xin.

It was the day’s total earnings from selling goods.

It totaled over a hundred bucks.

Lin Ye made this suggestion because the goods were all priced, so Jiang Xin didn’t have to worry about him taking the money and running away or anything.

After all, the goods sold, all had a tally.
