Rebirth of the Millennial: Getting Rich After Parents Get Laid Off

Chapter 40 The Big Xinhua Bookstore

Li Xunli looked at the money in her hand and couldn't help but be tempted. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, then you decide when you are free. I think you'll need to set aside four or five days to look for raw materials. We don't have any here, so we have to go elsewhere."

Zhang Hengyun thought for a moment and said, "That might be the week after next. I have to be busy in the next city next week, and I can only come over after I'm done with that."

"Okay, then let's make an appointment for next week." Li Xunli affirmed.

"Then let's exchange phone numbers so we can contact each other easily. Don't worry about the car and expenses, I'll be there."

Zhang Hengyun and Li Xunli exchanged mobile phone numbers, and after making some preliminary arrangements on some matters, they said goodbye.

The theater owner wasn't lying when he said he was busy.

Both parties said goodbye happily.

As soon as the person left, Shen Qingqing immediately asked her mother: "Mom, why didn't you just agree?"

"What a great publicity opportunity! The performing troupes are all using your porcelain, so who knows, someone who goes to see the show might take a fancy to it and ask you to order it for them!"

Li Xunli poked Shen Qingqing's forehead in annoyance, "It's custom-made, custom-made. I have to chop it into three pieces!"

"Ouch!" Shen Qingqing covered her forehead and leaned to the side, immediately shouting, "Then just quit that job at the garment factory! You work yourself to death for only a thousand or eight hundred yuan a month anyway, and that's without them deducting your wages."

"Look, Uncle Yao's order is worth 10,000 yuan, and Aunt Zhang's order is 2,000 yuan. If you can finish it until the New Year, it will be equivalent to your shift's salary! And more!"

"Quit, quit! You only see what's in front of you! Do you think other people's money comes from the wind? Just customize it if you say so!" Li Xunli scolded angrily.

Shen Qingqing was helpless. She really wanted to tell her mother about what she and Li Xunjin had planned, but since it had not been implemented yet, if she told her mother, her mother might be scared and try to stop her from doing it.

This matter really can only be done first and reported later.

Shen Qingqing sighed like an old man, wondering if her uncle had sorted out all the affairs of the company and its sub-brands.

And Uncle Jingyuan, when will you start selling clothes?
Of course, these things cannot be rushed.

On Sunday morning, the noise made by Li Xunli pulling Shen Yangyang out of bed was so loud that Shen Qingqing was kicked and woken up.

She rushed over with sleepy eyes, slapped Shen Yangyang hard on the butt, and slipped into the bathroom before Shen Yangyang screamed and her mother scolded her.

Escape full marks!

After Shen Qingqing finished taking care of herself, she slowly ate breakfast at the dining table and watched Shen Yangyang being sent to her grandmother's house by her mother.

Then, a little after nine o'clock, Chen Man called and asked them to wait at the intersection.

It takes twenty minutes to drive from their town to Lushi Town, and it may take half an hour to get to the Xinhua Bookstore.

Along the way, Shen Qingqing and Chen Man chattered in the back seat about the books they wanted to buy. Every time Chen Man mentioned a comic book, Shen Qingqing would add a classic.

By the end, Chen Man felt guilty, and hugged Shen Qingqing and said flatteringly: "Hey, Qingqing, we can exchange books!"

It’s called an exchange, but it would be strange if she read the books Shen Qingqing bought!

Shen Qingqing also bought the books from the list her Chinese teacher had given her last time, in preparation for the upcoming competition. She read as much of the original work as she could. After all, for subjective reading comprehension questions, it's difficult to accurately grasp the central idea of ​​the question if she hasn't read the original work and only reads the materials and excerpts.

Half an hour passed quickly amid the chatter of the two little girls.

"We're here! Get out!" Chen Yanfeng parked the car on the side of the road, unlocked the door and asked everyone to get out.

After getting off the car, Shen Qingqing realized how big the "Xinhua Bookstore" that Chen Yurong mentioned was.

The horizontal storefront alone occupies four storefronts and is more than ten meters long!
After entering, the depth is as deep as two storefronts.

This can be considered a small library!

The stationery and sports supplies area and the book reading area are clearly separated. The stationery and sports supplies area is on the right side facing the store, and the door on the left side is the book reading area.

But the checkout place is at the entrance of the stationery and sports supplies area.

Most of what Shen Qingqing and her friends wanted to buy were in the book reading area, such as exercise books. They could just buy them when they passed by the stationery area on their way to check out.

Unlike the bright and transparent stationery area, the light in the book reading area is softer, and you need to wear disposable shoe covers when entering. There are many children sitting on the ground between the bookshelves, reading books.

After the two children and Li Xunli entered the book reading area, they each looked for their own books. Chen Yanfeng came purely to accompany the children, so naturally he followed behind the two children, so Li Xunli could feel at ease to find the reference books she needed.

"Wow! Qingqing, you bought so many famous books!" After strolling around the comic area, Chen Man came over with several copies of "Laughing School" and "A Shaing", and saw the books piled up to Shen Qingqing's waist.

The book on top is called "Camel Xiangzi".

Shen Qingqing placed a green-covered copy of Anne of Green Gables on top of Xiangzi Xiangzi and clapped her hands. "Alright! We've bought everything!"

Chen Yanfeng pushed a small cart over and said, "Put the books on top and pull it over. You can't move it."

Shen Qingqing and Chen Man worked together to stack the pile of books beside her legs onto the cart one by one. Even though each book was not very heavy, their waists were tired after carrying it back and forth several times.

Then the two girls pushed the cart towards the cultural and sports supplies area. When they passed by Huanggang Xiaozhuangyuan, Shen Qingqing picked up two sets.

Although she didn't need it herself, she couldn't let Chen Man do it alone. Without someone to accompany her in writing exercises, she probably wouldn't take the initiative to write.

When Chen Man saw the exercise books, her lips pursed, but she couldn't show her sadness too obviously, because her reason for coming here was to buy the exercise books.

Soon, they pushed the cart and met up with Li Xunli.

Li Xunli was stunned when she saw the small cart of extracurricular books, but because she didn't know whether it was bought by her daughter or Chen Man, the words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.

Shen Qingqing didn't bring any money this time, so her mother had to pay for the books. She glanced at her mother's face and said, "Mom, these are the books I need to read for the competition I'm participating in. Our Chinese teacher recommended buying them!"

She was very skilled in using teachers as shields. Last time it was the math teacher, and this time it was the Chinese teacher.

Just like they didn’t ask the math teacher for confirmation last time, Li Xunli will not ask the Chinese teacher for confirmation this time.

After all, it is about reading, and only teachers would encourage students to read more.

　See you tomorrow night~
