Chapter 50 Buying a Car
"Dad, what do you think of these cars?" Xia Shiyu asked her father for his opinion. She had already picked out a few models last time she came, so this time she would just focus on these few.
"I think this one is the best choice. The quality is quite good, it looks durable, and it's safer to drive."
"Okay, that's settled then. Hello, that's all we'll do. Please deliver it to our door when it's ready."
Xia Shiyu spoke to the boss.
"Don't worry, just give us the address and we'll bring it down for you. We'll keep it safe."
The boss readily agreed, saying that selling another car would bring in a good amount of profit.
Xia Shiyu nodded. Now that they had bought the car, they could go eat first.
Although it only cost a little over 20,000 yuan, I still have to treat myself.
Xia Shiyu suggested, "Dad, I know a small restaurant that's pretty good. Let's go there for a meal."
Xia Lihua nodded, "Of course."
He learned a lot from his trip with his daughter today. Goodness gracious, all the vegetables they brought sold out, and they made several thousand yuan, which is almost a month's salary for him.
And let me tell you, this is actually a small part; the real money comes from the few regular suppliers that my daughter has contacted.
On the way, the two passed by a royal chef's steamed bun shop. Xia Shiyu went up to take a look and found that they had indeed put chive buns on the menu. The price was much higher than other ordinary buns in the shop, but many people who were queuing up still bought them.
That speaks volumes about how delicious it must be. Xia Lihua nodded to himself as he looked at the long queue of people.
Xia Lihua felt very proud and honored, and naturally didn't care about the more than 20,000 yuan for the time being. After all, the small truck could make money from money right away, which was really satisfying.
The two sat in the shop, and Xia Lihua said happily, "Xiaoyu, order whatever you want to eat. If we can't finish it, we'll pack it up and take it home. Dad's treating today."
"Haha, thanks Dad, but I should have been the one to treat."
Xia Shiyu made a joke.
Xia Lihua waved his hand, "Oh, no need. You just had a big hemorrhage. Let Dad take care of you first, you'll be fine. You can ask him to come back later."
"Yes, that makes sense. Let's eat first. The chef here is really good."
Xia Shiyu happily waited for all the dishes to be served and then started eating. The only slight regret was that her mother wasn't there, but that wasn't a problem; the three of them could eat together next time.
Xia Shiyu happily stuffed vegetables into her mouth, eating with great relish.
She wasn't the only one who was happy; everyone who bought the fairytale vegetables today was overjoyed.
Yan Na and her daughter returned home carrying bags and packages. The moment they put the bags down, her daughter cheered.
"Oh, I'm home!"
"Be careful, little one. Mommy's going to cook. Daddy will be back soon so we can eat together."
"Mommy, do you need my help?" the little girl asked.
"No, no, you're too young. Go watch TV first."
After sending her daughter away, Yan Na focused on cooking, using the vegetables she had bought that day.
After she finished cooking, Wan Junliang returned home.
"It smells so good! What are we making today?"
Yan Nabian put the dishes on the table and said, "Let me tell you, I ran into the same vendor I bought chives from last time today. This time I not only bought chives but also other vegetables from her stall, and they were all quite delicious."
"Really? I'm so lucky! I've been craving this for so long."
Wan Junliang was quite excited.
The family sat at the table happily eating. The more Yan Na ate, the happier she became. The boss wasn't lying at all; every dish was delicious, making her feel that her cooking skills had improved a lot.
She put a piece of green vegetable into her daughter's bowl and felt very satisfied watching the child eat happily. She turned to Wan Junliang and said, "I bought a lot of vegetables this time. I'll take some over to my parents later so they can have some of this delicious food too."
"Okay, you decide. This dish is delicious and I think it's healthy too. They'll definitely be satisfied."
Yan Na kept this in mind after hearing it, and planned to go there in the afternoon.
Yan Na was happy, and Zhou Chengjuan was even happier, feeling extremely powerful.
After she returned with a huge pile of groceries, the old man only said a few words about not needing to buy so many. But as soon as he heard that the leeks from that other store were from the same supplier, he immediately changed his tune.
"Oh my, old woman, I knew you were the most capable. You're so clever!"
"Of course, just invite Xiao Zheng and Xiao Zheng over for dinner later tonight," Zhou Chengjuan instructed.
"Okay, okay, I'll go call the kids right now." Wang Degang said and ran out to make the call.
Then Wang Zheng received a call from his father. He was exhausted from work, but as soon as he heard that his mother had bought the vegetables from last time, he immediately perked up.
"Really? That's great, Dad. Don't worry, I'll call Amei in a bit, and we'll go out for dinner after get off work tonight."
After hanging up the phone, he felt a little better and was able to muster the energy to go to work, so he could have a good meal in the evening.
After having dinner with her father, Xia Shiyu set off for home. This time, her father drove, so she could finally rest peacefully for a while.
After returning home, Yu Juan had also come back, and both of them had completed their tasks for the day very well.
Yu Juan took the packed items back and asked, "Have you bought the car yet?"
Xia Shiyu: "I've bought it. It will be delivered in a couple of days."
"That's good, that's good. Let's not talk about this for now. You're all tired, go take a shower first."
"Okay, Mom."
When Xia Shiyu came out after taking a shower, she saw her mother taking care of a group of chicks and ducklings. "Mom, you bought chickens and ducks?"
"Yes, I remember everything you said before. It's good to raise some. Since we started eating the vegetables you grow, we've been eating less meat at home. Raising some will make our food taste better."
Yu Juan counted the chickens and ducks and replied.
Xia Shiyu nodded, "It is possible to develop the breeding industry. Pigs are too troublesome. These animals can be raised, and maybe we can catch a few rabbits to raise later. Rabbits reproduce a lot, and we can give them any grass and vegetables we can't eat from the mountains."
Xia Lihua agreed with the idea, "Okay, Dad can make you spicy rabbit head and spicy rabbit meat later."
Xia Shiyu said happily, "Then it's settled, Dad. I'll leave it to you when the time comes."
"Don't worry."
Yu Juan looked at the two of them and shook her head, "You two."
"By the way, Lao Xia, we still need to build a chicken coop and a duck coop. Although we don't have many chickens and ducks at home yet and they haven't grown up, we still need to prepare in advance. The area needs to be large, so we need to prepare well."
Xia Lihua nodded, "I'll set it up there tomorrow. I happen to have some cement and bricks left at home, so I can keep them in our old, vacant pigsty for now. I'll just have to tidy it up a bit."
"Okay, it's decided then."
