BTTS 442




 Chapter 442. Quitting


Lin Qing He said: "When doing business, we got to be trustworthy. We can't possibly let your people make a trip for nothing. It has no benefit for us. Who would do such a wicked thing?"

"You guys seem to be decent, so I believe you. But if it is someone else, then I might not believe it." The seafood boss responded with a smile.

This time, Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai directly bought a truck full of dried seafood with him. They were all packed in boxes. Adding it all up, the total amount of money for this exchange was almost three thousand yuan!

Even when the seafood boss completed a lot of transactions, but this kind of 3,000 yuan transaction doesn't happen in any month.

"These sea crabs have just been caught. I will give it to you as a gift for our future cooperation." The seafood owner was overjoyed. Such a big order was sold today. It was enough to see that Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai can be trusted. So naturally, he didn't mind being generous.

A box of frozen, tied sea crabs was given.

Lin Qing He didn't act reserved. She accepted it and also asked for his phone number. She will call him when she needed to order.

Then Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai drove away.

On the road, Zhou Qing Bai was puzzled, so he said: "Why do you want to open a dry seafood shop all of a sudden?"

Before they came, they were planning to come over and buy some to eat at home.

Lin Qing He smiled and said, "It's fine to open one. Anyway, our family is going to eat it. It's not a bad idea to open a shop while we are at it."

These were the specialty products from the southern side. In the capital, these were available but very limited.

Lin Qing He quite liked these kinds of seafood. These were all dried seafood. Relatively durable and the profit wasn't low.

Basically, they were all split into half cost and half profit. Some even have 60% profit.

The goods weren't cheap. Just achieve a few orders a day and they will make a lot of money in that month.

That's why Lin Qing He came up with the idea on the spot and want to do this business. It was convenient for their family to eat it. And having more stores was beneficial.

After all, one can get involved in different kinds of industry. There was nothing wrong with trying.

This time, there were a lot of shrimps, dried shrimp skins, and the like. There was a truckload of it behind them.

Once this truck drove to the suburbs, Lin Qing He put the vehicle into the space. Then they used a bicycle to travel. The couple came to the train station. The bicycle was easy to put away. Just find a corner where no one was around and withdraw it in.

Currently, there was no monitoring camera and the likes, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

After getting on the train, they went directly to their side.

After so much going on, Lin Qing He was tired and went to sleep with Zhou Qing Bai.

When they woke up, they hadn't arrived yet. The train wasn't slow, but neither was it fast. It would take nearly fifty hours.

However, it took four full days to go from the capital to Yangcheng. There were some rest periods in the middle, but it can't be said it's not far away.

After all, transportation still wasn't as developed and prosperous as later generations.

When they arrived at the municipal city, Lin Qing He and Zhou Qing Bai found a guest house, took a comfortable bath, and went to bed after changing the sheets and quilts.

The couple slept until after eight o'clock the next day before they woke up.

Lin Qing He was held in Zhou Qing Bai's embrace. She yawned, "When we get rich in the future, we won't toss around like this."

So far, it seemed there were a lot of properties in their family. But to say they were wealthy, it was still too early.

"Once this dry goods store is open, we won't go to the south next year." Zhou Qing Bai said.

"How can that do?" Lin Qing He was taken aback for a moment and looked at him.

It was true that it was tiring, but the horse won't be fat without nightly grass and a person isn't rich without a windfall. Despite the exhaustion, this trip to the south had made a profit of nearly 40,000 yuan.

What did 40,000 yuan mean at this time?

Her clothing shop and beverage shop sounded like it was doing extremely well and the profit was definitely high. But after deducting the monthly labor cost, how much was it actually in a year?

Although it was a bit tiring, how can they not want this windfall?

"In the future, business will be very good. And we had bought the courtyard dwelling. Let's not do this." Zhou Qing Bai stated.

Lin Qing He froze for a moment. Taking in his expression, she hesitated.

In fact, Zhou Qing Bai didn't allow her to do this from the start. It was because she wanted to do it, he followed her.

He agreed because the family conditions were average and the children needed to be nurtured.

However, the conditions at home were already pretty good right now. Truly above well-off.

"Clothing shops, beverage shops, as well as this dry good shop, and my dumpling shop. Manage these shops well, the income will be high. There is no shortage of money." Zhou Qing Bai said.

Lin Qin He looked at him. Zhou Qing Bai also stared back at his wife.

"Really quitting?" Lin Qing He disappointedly looked at him.

"Our family will not be short of money in the future. I will raise the price of dumplings again. It's not a problem to make 500 yuan a month." Zhou Qing Bai stated seriously.

Lin Qing He was initially quite disappointed, but she couldn't help but smile when she heard what he said. She responded, "Then you raise it. The price needs to be increased."

"Quitting?" Zhou Qing Bai's gaze remained on her.

"You said quitting, so we're quitting. I'll listen to you." Lin Qing He leaned into his arms and replied.

In fact, with her personality, it was a surprise that he could promise her to be a profiteer at the beginning. What's more, he had joined her for a few years. Now he wanted to stop, then stop.

After all, she had bought her courtyard dwelling. And there were five shops and the house, where Father Zhou and Mother Zhou were living, was also under her and her family Qing Bai's name.

In addition, there were a lot of savings. The businesses of various shops were still very stable. So Lin Qing He felt that there was no problem with not continuing this opportunity.

As long as her Qing Bai didn't feel entangled in his heart, it was fine.

"If I'm an emperor, it seems I'm a muddled-head emperor." Lin Qing He emotionally remarked.

Zhou Qing Bai looked at her questioningly. Lin Qing He clarified, "How much money did I give up for you, old man?"

"Not old." Zhou Qing Bai flipped on top of her.

Lin Qing He blushed and said, "It's almost time to get up."

"Later. No rush." Zhou Qing Bai laughed.

This 'no rush' continued until noon. They had lunch here before they caught a ride at 1pm to the county city.

It was almost three o'clock when they reached the county city.

They found a place to take out Third Brother’s motorcycle and gasoline. The couple made their way to Third Brother's place first.

When arrived at Third Brother's shop, Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law happened to be there.

Lin Qing He almost laugh out when she saw Third Brother's black and skinny appearance. He almost turned into a monkey.

"Old Fourth, Fourth Sister-in-law!" Third Brother's eyes lit up when he saw the two of them. Especially at the sight of the motorcycle they were on. He came out quickly.

"I was saying you should coming anytime soon. We had been waiting for you for a long time  You must come to our home to eat tonight. I will kill the chicken!" Third Sister-in-law followed out him and uttered.

    2. This is good compromising in a relationship. Give and take. She could have insisted but she respected his decision.

    3. It would be nice if they try to invest in other businesses in the future and expand their stores to different cities.

    4. I am disappointed in this chicken ML. If the university hadn’t been instrumental in the MC’s household registration, I would have wanted her to engage in more of the import export business.
