BTTS 277




Chapter 277. The first shop


Lin Qing He thought this was just a simple shop.

But when she came over, she realized that this shop was a duplex kind.

In other words, there was a second floor.

Business happened on the first floor, while the second floor was basically for living. This was simply beyond Lin Qing He's expectation.

Zhou Kai examined it. He loved it but still had some hesitation: "Such a shop must cost a lot of money."

"That side's opening price with transfer fee is three thousand." Uncle Wang said.

"Three thousand?" Lin Qing He's tone held some surprise.

Uncle Wang thought she found it too expensive and continued: "Originally it was three thousand two hundred. Looking upon my face, it was reduced by two hundred. With its location and being a duplex, it can't go any lower."

Zhou Kai was disappointed when he heard this, and said: "Mother, let's change."

He was fond of this place, but it was too expensive. Three thousand yuan for such a house.

"What change? This property is great." Lin Qing He refuted in displeasure.

She knew Uncle Wang had misunderstood her meaning, and hurriedly said: "Uncle Wang, when will the landlord be free? If both parties have no objection, then let's find a time to settle the transfer!"

Three thousand yuan ah! Three thousand yuan to buy a duplex building in such an area!

Lin Qing He felt that this was an extremely great bargain.

If it's in the later generations, forget about getting such a building with a piece of land for three thousand. One can only buy about one square meter of living area in the county city.

"You're willing to buy it?" Uncle Wang chuckled when he heard this.

Among several properties, he was also most satisfied with this one. The location was great as well as being close to the market. If one wants to do business, such a place was perfect. That's why he brought them here for a look.

"Willing. Uncle, you found me such a good one, how can I not be happy?" Lin Qing He grinned.

This shop was almost 80 square meters. It's not especially spacious, but it was definitely not small either. The most important thing was that there was a second floor. That three thousand won't be a loss at all.

After arranging the transfer time for tomorrow morning, Lin Qing He took Zhou Kai back to school.

Zhou Kai asked on the way back: "Mother, do we have so much money?"

"You don't have to worry about money." Lin Qing He waved her hand.

Zhou Kai laughed. Seeing him like this, Lin Qing He gave him a disgruntled glance: "What are you laughing for? Stinky brat, if you dare to leave some black stain and ruin your future, see if I'll clean you up."

This was a disguised admission.

Zhou Kai said, "I know."

"Study hard. These matters are all your parents' affairs. You don't need to worry about it. If not, I'll really worry, understand?" Lin Qing He warned.

"I know, I know." Seeing her going on and on again, Zhou Kai quickly stated.

Lin Qing He waved her hand to dismiss him away.

The next day she came to the Housing Management Bureau with her household registration to hand over the documents along with the house owner.

Not a single cent was short from the three thousand yuan. Uncle Wang originally wanted to ask if she wanted to borrow from him or something. To his surprise, she really had it and had the ability to take it out.

After getting the property certificate, it went without saying how Lin Qing He's mood was.

She couldn't be any more excited than this.

She owned a property in the capital. In a place like the capital where later generations are soaring!

Uncle Wang looked at her joyful expression and smiled: "What business are you planning to do?"

"This has to be discussed with Kai's father. Uncle, do you have any good suggestions?" Lin Qing He asked.

"Open a dumpling shop." Uncle Wang did give a suggestion.

Lin Qing He was stunned for a moment, and then laughed out: "Uncle, have you heard it from Da Wa that his father can only make dumplings."


"Making dumplings isn't a bad choice." Uncle Wang said seriously.

Lin Qing He pondered on it seriously. A side business wasn't easy. But if it's dumplings, it was really no problem.

After all, whether it was her or Zhou Qing Bai, they both knew how to. After all, the technical skills weren't high.

At this stage, as long as one did business, they were basically making money. It didn't matter what they did.

So Lin Qing He said: "When I go back this winter vacation, I will tell him."

Because of this shop, Lin Qing He truly longed to go home.

In the following days, it was getting colder day by day. The hot water bottle that Zhou Qing Bai bought came in handy. It was very cozy to carry it in her embrace.

"It's extremely freezing," Wang Li said.

Lin Qing He felt it was fine since she had a hot water bottle and asked, "Will you go back this year?"

"I won't return this year. There are only so many days. Better save some fares." Wang Li responded.

The winter vacation time was only 20 days. It took up a few days on the journey over and back. Wang Li didn't plan to go back last year. So it'll be the same this year.

Lin Qing He didn't say anything. Naturally, she'll go back.

On December 20th of the lunar calendar, she officially got her break. Zhou Kai didn't plan to go back. Lin Qing He let him be.

She left him with fifty dollars.

Zhou Kai grinned and said, "Mother, I won't be polite to you." His mother was worthy of being a profiteer. Each time, she was extraordinarily generous.

"Join your classmate's family for New Year's dinner." Lin Qing He told to him.

One can't be absent from their own family's New Year's dinner. It was permitted for other people to join their own family. Of course, the relationship was generally great.

Lin Qing He knew that her eldest son had a strong relationship with his classmate, so she didn't care.

"I know." Zhou Kai responded.

He'll bring a roast duck and a chicken over and wait to eat.

Lin Qing He didn't bother with him and caught the ride directly to Hai City.

At the end of 1979 this year, a particularly prosperous scene will appear in Hai City.

She remembered that when she came over in summer, she already witnessed some wearing skirts. Unexpectedly, she can already see people wearing colorful dresses in the winter.


Have to say, the unrestricted spring was really here.

Lin Qing He stuck to her old rules. This time she bought a batch of clothes, electric fans, watches, radios, etc., again.

She'll get a sum of money when exchanging hands.

Not too much time was delayed as she was already familiar with the place. She arrived in the morning and returned by bus in the evening.

It was pretty late when she arrived at the municipal city. Lin Qing He wasn't afraid. After all, it hadn't reached the time when safety was a problem yet. If she left it till next year, she wouldn't dare to.

Starting next year, she plans to go down south with her family Qing Bai to buy goods!

She set aside those that were useful and sold the rest.

She found someone in the municipal city to sell off the new clothes that she brought back. They were easy to sell out.

As for Shen Yu's side, forget. Let's just say she hadn't gone over this year., They weren't strangers, so can't do this every year.

She rested in the municipal city for one night. Early the next day, she caught the ride back to the county city.

  1. As someone who’s dumpling folding is only so-so, “technical skills aren’t high” is a blow, lol.

  6. Я рада, что Цин Хэ удалось купить недвижимость в удачном месте. Я только боюсь, что Чжоу Кай, старший сын, попробует спекуляцию и попадётся... Подростки часто делают глупости.
