Chapter 368: Not an Adoptive Mother 9
Next, Yuanchun received another wave of children buying snacks.
It is August now, and the children have not started school, so they are all playing at home. The locals living in this alley are in good condition. They are all dual-income families, and they will give their children some pocket money.
So, Yuanchun consumes a lot of snacks in grocery stores.
The most profitable thing is snacks.
Don't look at the five cents a bag of sour plum powder and the ten cents and six fruit candies. In fact, the cost is only half, so the snacks are basically half and half.
The smaller the thing, the smaller the cost, but the more profitable it is.
This is the experience Yuanchun gained after selling groceries for half a month.
In September, when students start school, there are far fewer children coming to buy snacks. If the children have pocket money, they will keep it to buy food at school.
After school started, Yuanchun sent Xiaobao to a nearby nursery school.
Yuanchun did not take over the manual work in the store like the original owner. She added braised products to sell in the store.
Braised pig head meat, braised pig offal, braised beef, braised big bones...
There is a new counter at the door of the grocery store, and there are pots of fragrant hot steam on the counter. The steaming braised pork is so delicious that people passing by the grocery store after get off work will jump off their bicycles when they smell the aroma, cut a plate and go home to drink.
If it is not sold out, Yuanchun will secretly store it in a space to keep it warm and fresh, and then sell it out the next day without any waste.
Later, Yuanchun bought a lot of fish, shrimp, and chicken legs to make fried fish, fried shrimps, and fried chicken legs...
The grocery store was small, so she bought bricks and hired masons to double the size of the store. On one side were shelves for groceries and on the other side was a counter for buying braised products and fried foods. In order to facilitate work, Yuanchun also specially customized a coal stove with nine briquette holes and placed it inside the braised products counter. She was cooking and looking at the store at the same time.
As busy as she is, her income is also considerable.
When the original owner was here, the average monthly income of the grocery store was about 750 yuan.
Yuan Chun added braised products, fried goods, rice noodles and other items. She can earn more than 3,000 yuan in a month.
Three thousand yuan in the 1990s was a worker's salary for two years.
Although she is tired, she earns a lot, and Yuanchun feels that she is very satisfied.
Yuan Chun is a young widow who has money, a house and a job, so many people in the neighborhood are eyeing her. However, Yuanchun has long made it known that she will not remarry.
But there are people everywhere who don't understand human language. Seeing her making a lot of money every day, some jealous people started to think carefully.
No, an aunt named Li who lived in a nearby alley leaned in front of the braised products counter, looked at Yuanchun who was busy at the counter, and said loudly, " Yuanchun, you said you have to look after the store, work, and pick up the children all by yourself. How can you be so busy? Come here, my natal family happens to have a nephew who is about the same age as you. He got divorced not long ago, and he is looking for another wife. I’ll just take a look at you. I’ll bring my nephew over to have a look at you tomorrow. If you guys look at If we meet each other, you can relax faster if he helps you.”
"Aunt Li, no need. I just have my son. I have sworn to my husband a long time ago that I will never marry again in this life and only live with my son." Yuanchun raised his head and refused impatiently. .
This Aunt Li mentioned this matter to her two days ago, but she refused.
I mentioned it again today, as if I couldn’t understand people’s words.
