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

Chapter 558

"Fourth Sister-in-law, how come you're free to come over?" Zhou Xiao Mei grinned when she saw her fourth sister-in-law.

"I'm free every day now." Lin Qing He responded.

Beside keeping her English on track by reading books, she basically had nothing to do. Zhou Qing Bai didn't need her to touch anything. She just needed to be responsible for her good mood.

Zhou Xiao Mei gave her customer their change and was finally free. She spoke, "Fourth Brother came over and got some steamed buns and soy milk. Have you eaten, Fourth Sister-in-law?"

"I have." Lin Qing He saw that another customer enter. She went to find a place to sit down and let Zhou Xiao Mei work away first.

After busying for a long time, Zhou Xiao Mei finally got spare time and said: "That's how it was in the morning. People come and go."

"It has to be that the buns are delicious. They are good-value and sufficient quantity. I came across a few bun shops on the way. None of them were like this shop." Lin Qing He said honestly.

There were a lot of bun shops along the way. It wasn't the early 1980s anymore. This was the mid-1980s. Self-employed people were no longer uncommon.

There were still many people who have abandoned their literacy and went to the sea.

She came across four bun shops on the way. Their business couldn't compare to Zhou Xiao Mei's side.

Taking advantage of the fact that the steamed bun shop was temporarily empty, Lin Qing He whispered: "Da Lin steamed buns are truly good-value. Is this profit margin a bit low?"

Originally, her Qing Bai's profit margin wasn't high. However, the dumpling's price was increased by Third when he was in charge. This year, she was pregnant with a daughter and the price of dumplings went up slightly.

Regardless of the size of the dumpling shop, it wasn't a problem at all for the shop to earn 700 to 800 yuan a month.

"The profit isn't high, but Da Lin said there's no rush. Business must be done slowly." Zhou Xiao Mei was helpless when it came to this.

Her family's Da Lin was too honest. Pork, flour, etc. had all risen. His bun shop has risen because of these price rises. Besides, he basically made no profit.

Now the business was indeed getting better and better. Although the profit was thin, but the two of them work harder and it won't be difficult for them to make five or six hundred yuan a month.

But the word-of-mouth was really faultless. The whole surrounding area knew that the stutterer's bun shop was good value.

"Then do it slowly. Just follow Da Lin." Lin Qing He stated.

This was the difference between opening a shop by themselves and going out to set up a street stall.

The street stall was free and idle. It was fine to have a bad publicity. Just change the location and continuing to display their wares. This was also the reason why Xu Sheng Qiang can still keep going.

While opening a shop was different. The reputation of the shop was extremely important.

Although Zhou Qing Bai raised the price, he paid great attention to quality. The amount of dumplings still remained unchanged. As for the price increase, it can't be helped. Everything had gone up, so he must, right?

In contrast, Su Da Lin was more honest.

"I didn't criticize him. It is busy. Just a matter of effort." Zhou Xiao Mei had thought it though and nodded.

At this time, Zhou Xiao Mei went to serve the customer. The customer wanted a lot and smilingly said: "When I buy with your man, your man would throw in one for me."

"I can't add it now. Things are too expensive. Such a big bag, I only make a bun's money." Zhou Xiao Mei helplessly uttered.

The man smiled but said nothing.

"Really that Da Lin. Now that people come over to buy more, he still give one to others. I won't add one." Zhou Xiao Mei stated.

Even she encounter someone difficult, she won't squabble with them. She can only give. But generally it wasn't.

"It's pretty good. One loose and one tight." Lin Qing He smiled.

"I will be able to return the money to Fourth Sister-in-law next month." Zhou Xiao Mei continued.

"No rush. Talk about it when you have it more relaxed." Lin Qing He said.

"It is relaxed. It's better to paid it back to you and Fourth Brother. That way, there is no money to lend to his cousin-in-law." Zhou Xiao Mei pouted.
