After Lin Xiaoyu got home, he told Lin Haiqiang his plan.
Lin Haiqiang was still annoyed that he had caused trouble to Lin Xiaoyu and could not help her at all, but instead made her bear such a large debt for him.
As a result, he learned that he could help his daughter, so he started carpentry according to Lin Xiaoyu's request without saying a word.
Lin Haiqiang didn't have any skills, but he was gifted with a pair of dexterous hands. His family was poor and he couldn't afford furniture. He made all the tables, chairs, beds and cabinets at home by himself. If he didn't know how to do it, he would slowly explore it bit by bit, but he learned a little bit of carpentry on his own. ability.
The cart that Lin Xiaoyu wanted was not simple. It needed wheels for easy pushing, and a place to place a coal stove, because it needed to be heated to make soup, and it also needed a chopping board. The ramen needed to be made first, and the stove was also needed. Two are needed.
It took Lin Haiqiang three days to finish the cart she wanted.
Lin Xiaoyu was shocked when she saw the stroller he made. This stroller was so perfect, it perfectly met all the conditions she needed.
"Abba, you are really amazing!" Lin Xiaoyu couldn't help but hugged Lin Haiqiang.
Lin Haiqiang smiled honestly, and he was happy when he saw Lin Xiaoyu happy.
"Do you want me to accompany you when you go to town? You're a girl, and the road is still so far away. I'll help you push the cart. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it for a while." Lin Haiqiang had no idea that Lin Xiaoyu was going to do business. The objection was just that she was worried that it would be too hard for her alone.
Lin Xiaoyu thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
If business is going too well, Lin Haiqiang will really need help.
She asked Lin Haiqiang to make two more sets of tables and chairs so that people could sit down and eat when they came to eat noodles.
In the past few days, she and Lin Haiqiang went to the sea every morning and evening, each carrying a small wooden bucket, and they could come back with a full bucket every day.
The family didn't have much flour, so she went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy ten kilograms. She only had ten kilograms of food stamps at home, and she couldn't buy more if she wanted to.
The father and daughter set off from the village to the town early in the morning.
The village is not close to the town, and it takes about two hours to walk there. The two of them started setting off before dawn, and arrived at the town just after six o'clock.
There were two factories in the town. After some calculations, the two finally chose to set up a stall in front of the textile factory where there were more workers.
The two set up the stall. Lin Haiqiang helped light a fire and cook coal to cook the noodle soup, while Lin Xiaoyu kneaded the noodles to make dough.
As soon as the seafood soup is boiled, the aroma wafts out.
Next to the factory is the dormitory assigned to the employees. Many people are too lazy to make breakfast when they get up in the morning. They usually go to the factory cafeteria to have a meal.
The big pot rice in the cafeteria tastes average, but the price is cheap and it's edible.
Now I smelled such a fragrant smell so early in the morning that I was confused by the fragrance.
After a while, someone came over and asked about the price.
"This is seafood noodles. If you don't want seafood and just want noodles, a bowl only costs 20 cents. No stamps are required. If you have food stamps, you will be charged 20 taels of food stamps and an additional 10 cents." Lin Xiaoyu had already said this before he came. The price is set.
At this price, although the profit is not much, she still understands the principle of small profits but quick turnover. First, build a reputation. When there are more regular customers and the business is good, no matter how small the profit is, she can still make money by selling more. A lot of money.
"The price is not expensive, but what if I want seafood?" The man nodded. The price was almost the same as the price in the canteen, and the smell was better than that in the canteen.
"Seafood is two cents per portion, so this is the amount of one portion." Lin Xiaoyu pointed to a small bowl on the side. The bowl contained two shrimps, a quarter of a crab, and a few flowers. Huh, a few green vegetables, not too much, but not a lot, after all, this is all meat.
A pound of meat outside sells for 90 cents.
"Give me two portions, both of which require seafood. I'll also give you food stamps for seafood. Can you make it cheaper for me?" Smelling the alluring fragrance in the air, the man couldn't hold it back anymore and silently paid for it. money.
Lin Xiaoyu smiled and said: "You are the first guest. I only charge you for one portion of the seafood. The other portion is given to you. If it tastes good, introduce me to a few more customers later. Now that you're here, I'll give you a discount, with a 10% discount."
"Oh, big sister, you are really good at doing business, hahaha, okay, okay, I will definitely introduce you to the business." Hearing Lin Xiaoyu's words, the other party suddenly smiled.
Who wouldn’t want to take advantage of that these days?
A penny less for a meal is a penny, and all you save is money, who wouldn’t be happy?
Lin Xiaoyu charged her less for the seafood, and she suddenly felt like she was getting a huge advantage.
Lin Xiaoyu quickly pulled out the noodles and cooked two bowls of noodles.
Nowadays, when buying noodles, there is no such thing as a packaging box. You always bring your own bowl and pot.
Lin Xiaoyu gave a large portion. Looking at the small pot full of noodles, plus the shrimps and crabs on top, she immediately smiled from ear to ear.
After giving four taels of food stamps and forty cents, she took the pot and left.
A few more people came after her. Some people asked about the price and thought it was a bit expensive, so they left directly. Some people didn't miss the few cents and really wanted to eat it from the smell, so they spent money to buy one. Give it a try.
The woman who bought it first came back soon with seven or eight people, and she winked at Lin Xiaoyu as she came over.
Lin Xiaoyu immediately understood, and after everyone else had finished buying, he gave her another one, and she left happily.
Lin Xiaoyu wiped the sweat from his forehead. In just half an hour, he had already sold twenty portions. Only three of them didn't require seafood, and the rest did.
Including the portion that was given away, the noodles prepared today are almost sold out.
Lin Haiqiang stood aside and counted the money, with a look of shock on his face: "Is this business so easy to do? Did you make so much money just like this?"
Not everyone is willing to exchange food stamps for breakfast. After all, food stamps are quite scarce for every family. For those who don’t give food stamps, one meal costs 40 cents. There are a total of twelve people who don’t have food stamps. Of the remaining eight people, three of them only wanted noodles and no additional seafood. Now Lin Haiqiang already had six and a half yuan in his hand, plus sixteen taels of food stamps.
This was because of the money Lin Xiaoyu made when he gave the first lady a piece of seafood and a piece of seafood noodles.
If there was such business every day, wouldn't it be possible to earn nearly two hundred yuan a month?
He works hard every day to go fishing and can't make that much money in a month.
"There are still a few more. Wait a little longer. If no one comes, then leave." Lin Xiaoyu looked at the sky and estimated that it was already past seven o'clock. Normally, the factory would start work around eight o'clock. No one will come to buy breakfast, so I can only take it back.
