Wen Ying was not surprised at all.
In her previous life, she knew a client who relied on a couple selling fruit to buy several houses in Rongcheng, the amount aunt Zhu Meiqun earned was just a fraction of theirs.
Deng Shangwei was not shocked either.
He himself started by selling fish, deeply knowing how profitable such small stalls could be, not to mention Zhu Meiqun’s shop had an excellent location, it would be hard to lose money.
Even so, it was because Zhu Meiqun did business honestly, if Zhu Meiqun were more cunning, she might earn even more!
The most surprised was grandma Wen.
Since her eldest son quit his factory job, to help at the fruit shop, grandma Wen worried constantly.
The winery’s performance was poor, Wen Ying’s uncle’s salary was not high, but in the hometown county town it was passable.
The couple with one doing business and the other steadily working was the safest, but that would mean Zhu Meiqun would be more tired, the couple long-term separated, emotions easily problematic, so when uncle Wen quit, the old lady didn’t say a word.
Worried in heart was worried, nagging every day would deliberately stir up trouble between son and daughter-in-law, grandma Wen suppressed her anxiety in her heart, every day doing some housework within her ability to lighten the burden for her eldest son and his wife.
Suddenly hearing eldest daughter-in-law Zhu Meiqun say in front of the whole family how much the fruit shop earned this year, grandma Wen was extremely shocked:
“You said earned a lot of money?”
Zhu Meiqun herself could hardly hide her excitement, “After deducting rent, utilities and labour, earned nearly 130,000!”
130,000.
This money Wen Ying earned very easily, after all she just switched to another publisher and could get 5 million advance royalties, 130,000 this number was insignificant.
Last year, Deng Shangwei got more seafood shares from Qin Xianming, the aquatic business earned a lot of money, now cash flow not much, but speaking of total assets, 130,000 to Deng Shangwei was also a drop in the bucket.
Chen Ru, Wen Dongrong both salaried, Chen Ru good performance, now annual income also very high, 130,000 although not little, yet not enough for Chen Ru’s one year income.
But to Zhu Meiqun, 130,000 was really a lot a lot.
This was net profit after all costs.
One year 130,000, averaged monthly about 11,000, with the couple’s age and education, what job could earn so much?
You know, before the couple worked in hometown county town for many years, total savings only 50,000.
Now fruit shop opened first year earned 130,000, family savings instantly increased so much, Zhu Meiqun excited beyond measure, at this moment, Zhu Meiqun confirmed, her dream of buying a house in provincial capital for son Wen Kai could be realised!
Wen Changlin quite envied, “Selling fruit really can be good, just too hard, also only sister-in-law and brother can endure this hardship, early rise late sleep, regardless weather good or bad must open door!”
Zhu Meiqun didn’t feel hard at all, no matter how hard could it be harder than farming in countryside before?
Wen Changlin now selling insurance income also considerable, insurance this line originally winner takes all, either beat to death can’t open a single must mix two months base salary change career, insurance agents who stay in this line all have skills.
Once early stage find right clients, one client brings not just one policy, client’s relatives friends all potential clients, after Wen Changlin conquered square dance uncles aunts, for a while, policies like snowflakes actively floated to him:
“I don’t sell still not ok, those uncles aunts all have competitive hearts. Today aunt Zhang bought one insurance, if aunt Zhang herself paid fine, if insurance money was children gave aunt Zhang, not a few days, what aunt Li, uncle Wang surely bring children find me.”
Wen Changlin’s words made both tables people laugh.
Deng Hao didn’t understand this joke, “Sister Ying, what are you laughing at?”
“We not laughing, happy for my little uncle, he earned money selling insurance!”
Square dance uncles aunts competitive hearts very strong, compare respective pensions, compare children’s jobs, also compare if children filial.
Aunt Zhang’s child bought insurance for own mum, if aunt Li, uncle Wang not buy, they on square would be shorter than aunt Zhang by a head!
When Wen Changlin promoted policies, really grasped square aunts uncles’ needs, Wen Ying sincerely praised: “Little uncle’s business ability too strong, those aunts, uncles’ children actually didn’t take you as scammer.”
“How not? Also scolded me as scammer, said I cheat elders’ money, come door find me argue.”
No line earning money particularly easy, Wen Changlin good mindset, mention difficulties lightly two sentences pass, he although didn’t say specific how much earned last year, listen this tone probably not less than 130,000.
Wen Changlin himself can earn, to brother sister-in-law’s fruit business no ideas, Wen Changlin’s wife however quite tempted.
Wen Changlin come Rongcheng develop mainly for child study, Wen Changlin’s meaning since he can earn, wife completely can at home take good care child, but his wife not too willing.
Being housewife risk so big.
Wen Changlin originally eloquent, looks also good, wear suit more handsome bonus, because business every day run outside, one day heart run wild, wouldn’t she lose big?
Aunt Wen Ying still want herself earn some money, these two days doing ideological work for Wen Changlin.
In front of whole family, aunt directly put her ideas on table: “Changlin always say money enough, but I think money surely more better, now young not work hard earn, old then say money not enough too late!”
Everyone felt aunt thought right.
Chen Ru glanced at Wen Dongrong beside, remind little brother-in-law: “Changlin, you must not have any male chauvinism, feel man do what all ok, not trust your wife’s ability.”
Zhu Meiqun didn’t speak, but Zhu Meiqun brows also furrowed.
Chen Li looked at Wen Changlin, Wen Ying also looked at Wen Changlin.
Each one Wen Changlin couldn’t afford to offend, he repeatedly surrendered: “I absolutely no this idea!”
Aunt smiled help husband out: “I myself not yet thought what to do, hard find suitable job, not say salary high low, time not suitable.”
Aunt said time not suitable means inconvenient pick drop child school.
Earning money big matter, cultivate child well also big matter, with Wen Kai and Wen Ying two as examples, couple now wholeheartedly want cultivate own child talent.
Wen Ying grasped key: “To want time free, only own business, so aunt your meaning is…”
Aunt bit embarrassed, “I thinking do familiar better than new, I no ambition earn over 100,000 a year, alone open small shop earn tens of thousands ok.”
Finished looked at Zhu Meiqun.
Except ignorant children, all saw, aunt this also want do fruit business, but afraid brother sister-in-law unhappy, so hesitant.
This matter related to Zhu Meiqun couple’s interests.
Whether bring sister-in-law together do fruit business?
Zhu Meiqun not some great saint, to say heart no abnormality impossible.
Today say this is Wen Hongyan, Zhu Meiqun could flip on spot.
But say this is Wen Changlin wife.
In an instant, Zhu Meiqun mind flashed various ideas, finally she set sight on Chen Ru, remembered Chen Ru this year various helps to herself.
Chen Ru could not help.
But Chen Ru still helped.
Why?
Because they sisters-in-law, they all married Wen family men.
Chen Ru can have such broad mind, herself as big sister-in-law can’t differ too far, Zhu Meiqun finally nodded: “I can take you together sell fruit, purchase channels, shop experience I can all tell you. But I say ugly words first, Rongcheng how big, you can’t same street business with me!”
