Summer vacation passed quickly, and Xiao Chen and his friends resumed their daily routine of going to and from school.

In order to reduce the distance children have to walk.

Shen Jingyue has already started hiring someone to renovate the courtyard house she bought earlier.

She found a team that specialized in home renovation. He had several people working with him. Shen Jingyue visited the places they renovated and found that their renovations were quite good.

Moreover, they did a great job in every detail and never cut corners.

Shen Jingyue then took them to see her courtyard house.

I told them everything I wanted to change and what I wanted to change it to.

The leader would also write down what he said, noting where it needed to be changed and how it should be changed.

Shen Jingyue watched as he remembered so carefully, even drawing a sketch of a courtyard house, marking all the parts that needed to be changed, demolished, or repaired.

"How long will it take to finish repairing this house?" Shen Jingyue asked after showing them around.

"Your house is quite large, and there are many areas that need repair and additions. The construction will take at least a month and a half," the foreman gave an approximate timeframe.

"Okay, then you guys help me renovate properly. Please help me move all the furniture to other rooms first, and I'll charge you for the moving fee later."

"But one thing is certain: the furniture cannot be damaged."

"Don't worry, I understand. I guarantee there won't be any damage. I'll repair the empty rooms first, and then move the furniture over once they're done."

Although his renovation team was only established last year, they have already renovated several old houses in the past year and know how to handle these things.

Shen Jingyue paid the deposit and then sent them out.

After locking the gate of the courtyard house, I returned to the family compound.

Not long after I got back, Sister-in-law Lu came over, carrying some small green vegetables she had grown herself.

"Sister-in-law Lu, what brings you here? Come and sit down."

Shen Jingyue was sitting in the courtyard picking vegetables when she saw her arrive, so she invited her to sit down.

"I grow some vegetables at home, and we can't finish them all, so I brought some over for you."

As she spoke, she placed the vegetables on the stone table and sat down next to Shen Jingyue.

"Then thank you."

Shen Jingyue said with a smile that she quite likes eating bok choy, and that the bok choy grown by Sister-in-law Lu is also very fresh and delicious.

"By the way, Ms. Shen, I heard that your shop wholesales clothes for resale, is that true?"

She heard it from others; it seemed that Shen Meizi's sister-in-law got her goods from Shen Meizi's shop to resell.

And the business seems to be doing quite well.

I heard that they're planning to buy a house.

After hearing about this, she hesitated for several days before finally deciding to ask Ms. Shen about it.

"Yes, why is Sister Lu asking this? Is she interested in this too?"

Shen Jingyue looked up at Sister-in-law Lu with curiosity.

Sister-in-law Lu seemed a little embarrassed.

"I do have that idea. I'd like to get some goods from your store and also try my hand at buying and selling outside."

She doesn't have a job here, and her children are all in school, so she wants to start a small business.

Seeing that many people are buying clothes now, and having some money in hand, she thought of taking it out to buy some goods and try her luck in buying and selling.

"Sure, if you'd like, Sister-in-law Lu, I can take you to the shop."

"Won't it be very expensive to get the goods?" Sister-in-law Lu was also a little worried that it would be too expensive.

Shen Jingyue said, "Generally, those who come to our store to get goods are those who spend more than two thousand yuan, so the wholesale price will be relatively cheaper."

If the price is below 2,000, the purchase price will be relatively high, and they will earn less profit when they sell it.

"What if we only take a thousand worth of goods?" Sister-in-law Lu didn't have that much money, and a thousand was already a lot for her.

"The purchase price will be higher this way, and even if you do buy the goods, you'll earn less when you sell them."

"Oh, is that so? Can't you really lower the price?"

Shen Jingyue shook her head. "This was decided from the beginning. Wholesale doesn't make much profit anyway; it's all about volume. If you buy more than two thousand worth of goods, you can get the lowest wholesale price. There really wasn't such a thing before."

Shen Jingyue wouldn't give her a discount just because they're familiar with each other. If others who buy goods from her find out, it will cause a lot of trouble.

She didn't want to cause trouble for herself, and she was even less willing to set an example.

Seeing that Sister-in-law Lu seemed genuinely interested in starting a business, Shen Jingyue offered a suggestion.

"If Sister-in-law Lu wants to do business, she doesn't necessarily have to buy clothes. She can also do some small businesses with low costs and quick profits."

Sister-in-law Lu was initially feeling down, but her eyes lit up instantly when she heard what Sister Shen said.

"Then tell me quickly, Miss Shen, what small business has low costs and makes money quickly?"

"I've eaten Sister Lu's cooking before, and it tastes pretty good. Why doesn't Sister Lu make breakfast and sell it outside?"

"Selling breakfast requires getting up early. If Sister Lu thinks it's okay, she can give it a try."

"Or you can make boxed lunches and sell them. You can prepare rice and vegetables in advance and sell them near construction sites or factories. When it comes to food, the initial cost is only a matter of how high or low it is. As long as your food tastes better than others, you can keep making money in the future."

"My cousin-in-law sells boxed lunches near construction sites and factories in Guangzhou, and her business is quite good."

"Okay, I'll give it a try. I think I'll stick with making breakfast; I'm really good at making steamed buns."

After being reminded of this, Sister-in-law Lu's mood immediately brightened.

"Thank you for the reminder, Ms. Shen. I'll try buying breakfast there later."

The more Sister Lu thought about it, the better she felt that selling breakfast was a good option.

Sometimes when she goes to buy groceries in the morning, she sees the breakfast stalls packed with people.

Why didn't she think of selling breakfast herself back then?

"Sister Lu, there's no need to rush. You can think about what you want to sell first, and then prepare the ingredients in advance."

Selling breakfast is hard work; you have to get up very early every morning to prepare.

Shen Jingyue admitted that she did not have that kind of perseverance.

"I know. I'll go buy the ingredients tomorrow and make some in advance. I'll bring some over for you to try then."

Sister-in-law Lu is very good at making noodles, whether it's steamed buns, dumplings, or noodles, she makes them all exceptionally well.

In the past, we didn't have the means to do these things, but in recent years, conditions have improved a lot, and we eat much more steamed buns and dumplings than before.

"Great! I'll be waiting for it. With Sister Lu's excellent cooking skills, her business is sure to be booming."

Breakfast is always a profitable business, as long as it tastes good and is reasonably priced, it will sell very well.
