Chapter 246: Chapter 245, Only You

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Li Xu suddenly sighed, “Zixuan and Yuanyuan really don’t look they were born by me.”

Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang was elated, “Only I look like one?”

If he wasn’t mentioned, then he was definitely the only one who looked like them!

Li Xu turned her head and looked at Ji Zi’ang sympathetically. “Yeah, only you!”

Hearing this, Ji Zi’ang was even happier. He hugged Li Xu’s arm and acted coquettishly. “Mom, how do I look like!”

“Your brother and sister are smart, good-looking, and have good personalities. They’re likable everywhere. I wasn’t like this when I was young.”

Ji Zi’ang blinked at Li Xu’s words.

What’s going on? Why doesn’t it sound like anything good?

Seeing that Ji Zi’ang did not react, Li Xu let out a long sigh.

She hugged Ji Zi’ang and comforted him, “You’re still the only one who looks like Mom the most.”

Ji Zi’ang smiled again and leaned into Li Xu’s arms. He looked quite proud.

Li Xu and Zhang Kun looked at each other. Both of them could not help but laugh.

Ji Zixuan quickly finished writing. Li Xu handed it to Zhang Kun, who placed it on the table by the door.

“Tomorrow, you’ll be at the old store. I’ll go to the new store to help Chunli. She won’t be able to handle it herself. Besides, it’s her first day at work.”

Zhang Kun nodded. “Okay, don’t worry.”

The next day, Li Xu got up at five o’clock.

After a simple tidying up, she went to the new shop.

Hu Chunli had already come over. The door was already open.

“Where’s Jingyi?” Li Xu asked.

Hu Chunli pointed at the small room. “She’s sleeping inside!”

Li Xu gently pushed the door open and took a look. Hu Chunli had already spread the quilt on the small bed. Yang Jingyi was nestled inside, only revealing her small head. She was sleeping soundly.

Li Xu quietly came out and closed the door.

“You’ve worked hard. Today is the first day. You don’t have to come so early tomorrow. Just come at seven!” Li Xu said.

Hu Chunli smiled and shook her head. “It’s not hard. Where can I find a job where I can bring my child to work? I’m quite content.”

Li Xu walked outside and hung the paper board hanging on the handlebars on the wall with tape.

It was only six o’clock, and the sky was still a little dark.

But the sky was already bright, and the words on the paper board could be seen clearly.

Not long after Li Xu hung it, two middle-aged women came in.

Hu chunli quickly greeted them, “Welcome. What do you want? Put it in the bag yourself.”

The two middle-aged women walked around the shop together and muttered.

“It’s quite cheap and fresh. Go back and tell Old Li and the others to hurry up and buy it!”

“It’s not bad. I’ll also tell Old Xu and the others that since it’s so close, they won’t have to go to the market in the future. They can do more work at home in the morning.”

The shop was only so big. Naturally, Li Xu and Hu Chunli heard what the two of them said.

So when they had chosen to come over to pay the bill, Hu Chunli took a few tomatoes from the side and put them into their bags.

“I’ll give you a few tomatoes for free. Thank you for helping us advertise.”

Although the two tomatoes were not worth much, the two middle-aged women were still quite happy.

After all, they had been given something for free. Moreover, Hu Chunli was smiling and had a good temper.

She immediately said, “Okay, we’ll definitely advertise for you when we go back.”

After the two of them left, Hu Chunli looked at Li Xu uncomfortably.

Li Xu had already said that since she was invited to take a look at the shop, the others would not interfere too much.

Therefore, Hu Chunli had full authority to handle the things in the shop.

However, they were not her things after all. Hu Chunli had just given a few tomatoes, so she was still a little nervous.

Seeing Hu Chunli’s expression, Li Xu praised, “You did pretty well just now. Sometimes you have to be a little more generous.”

Sending a few tomatoes could help attract more business. It was a good deal.

Hearing Li Xu’s words, Hu Chunli heaved a sigh of relief.

After another half an hour, there were more and more people in the shop.

From seven to eight in the morning was the busiest time of the day.

It was mainly Hu Chunli who took the lead and Li Xu who helped her by the side.

From now on, Hu Chunli would watch over the shop. Of course, Hu Chunli had to show her face more often.

After dealing with these people, they were also willing to come.

It was the first day of opening, and the price was cheap. In addition, it was a Saturday.

From seven to nine o’clock, the people in the shop never stopped.

Even though there were two people, it was still a little too busy.

The shop was crowded, but Yang Jingyi was not affected at all. She slept very soundly.

It was not until nine o’clock that Yang Jingyi opened the door in a daze and shouted, “Mom…”

Hu Chunli was busy. Without turning her head, she instructed, “Take your toothbrush and towel. There is a warm pot in the toilet. There is warm water in it. Go Wash your face and brush your teeth.”

“Oh,” Yang Jingyi replied and went back to the cottage. She quickly took out the toothbrush, toothpaste, and towel and went to the washroom on the north side.

Li Xu was a little surprised to see that Yang Jingyi had become much more independent than before.

Hu Chunli seemed to have noticed Li Xu’s surprise, so she took advantage of the time when no one was around to explained in a hushed voice, “I’ve figured it out. I can’t follow her all the time. I couldn’t before, but now that I’m working, I can’t even more. So I still need to train her ability to be independent,”

Li Xu nodded and agreed, “A proper independence is good for the child.”

Yang Jingyi was quite obedient. She followed Hu Chunli from the morning until seven o’clock in the evening, but didn’t make much noise.

She was tired of staying in the room, so she went to the door to play for a while.

When she was tired of playing, she came in to lie down for a while.

After experiencing these things, Yang Jingyi had changed a lot.

In the past, she hated Hu Chunli the most because she wanted to run around outside every day.

Now, she could actually stay in the shop with Hu Chunli for an entire day.

After closing the shop at night, the two of them counted the money in the shop.

Because it was half-price, although it sold well, the money was not much. It was only 134 Yuan.

Li Xu used the newspaper to wrap the money and said, “You can responsible for the money yourself. You can take it home or hide it in the shop every day. Just give me the whole money every few days. We ll settle the accounts at the end of the month.”

Every Time Li Lei and Li Yong came to deliver the goods, they would record the quantity.

With the quantity, excluding the cost and the fixed price, the monthly turnover of the shop was about the same.

It was normal for the turnover to fluctuate and had difference between ten or twenty yuan.

Therefore, there was no need to keep accounts. Li Xu knew in her heart. At the end of the month, she would calculate the money and then calculate the commission for Hu Chunli.

She had calculated the commission. The daily net profit in the shop was between 70 and 80 Yuan.

In a month, it was between 2,000 and 2,500 Yuan. She would count it additional 15 Yuan as 1 points.

Hu Chunli could get at least 300 Yuan a month. If she worked hard, 450 yuan a month would not be very tiring. If she worked hard, 670 Yuan a month was not impossible..
