Chapter 21： Net profit of 7 yuan

Chapter 21 Net profit of 7 yuan

"12 yuan, 35 cents." Zhang Ying held a handful of change, her hands trembling with excitement, "We made 12 yuan, 35 cents for the first time we went out."

"Oh my god, Xiao Xi, you are so awesome." Zhang Ying hugged Ning Xi excitedly, "Xiao Xi, why are you so awesome? Your second brother goes out to do carpentry for people and can only earn a few dollars a month without taking a break. , those textile factory workers only earn 35 yuan a month, and my third uncle only earns 38 yuan a month in school, while we earn only 12 yuan, 35 cents a day, and we can surpass them by one in four days at most. monthly salary.”

“Oh my God! I’m so excited.”

“Xiao Xi, please touch me. My heart is almost beating out of my chest with excitement.”

Zhang Ying might have been so excited that she actually took Ning Xi's hand and put it on her chest.

Lu Nan quickly turned around and poured cold water on Zhang Ying in a very appropriate manner. "Second sister-in-law, this is just the money we made from setting up the stall today, and we have to put aside the cost and labor before we can count it as our own earnings."

This basin of cold water must have added a lot of ice cubes. As soon as it was poured in, Zhang Ying was immediately chilled to the core. "If you still think about it like this, how much did we earn today?"

"Let me do the math... Today we bought a few fishing nets for 8 cents and 3 cents, so today we sold a total of 13 yuan and 1 cents and 8 cents. It was agreed before that Xiaobei and the others helped net the fish to calculate the money for them. Yes, the business has just started now, so I will give them one penny a day, three people for three people, and seasonings..."

“Today our actual income is 7 yuan.”

Ning Xi calmly told Zhang Ying the account, and Zhang Ying became excited again, "Seven yuan, seven yuan is much better. If we earn 7 yuan a day, at most six days can exceed Uncle San's monthly salary."

Ning Xi was confused. Zhang Ying was at odds with Lu Zhenghai. Why did he have to compete with Lu Zhenghai?

In fact, Zhang Yinghui compares with Lu Zhenghai because Lu Zhenghua’s family runs a clothing factory and their daily income is beyond what they can currently achieve. Apart from Lu Zhenghua, the person she knows who makes the most money in the family is Lu Zhenghai, so she compares with Lu Zhenhai.

Of course this is because she doesn’t know that Lu Nan still has a salary, otherwise she would have to compare with Lu Nan.

“Second sister-in-law, don’t be too excited. Today we are just testing the waters. The spicy strips are all given away, and the goods taken out are relatively small.”

Hearing what Ning Xi said, Zhang Ying blinked and thought for a while before asking uncertainly, "Does this mean that even if we don't add more goods tomorrow, we can still make more than today?"

Ning Xi nodded, "Yeah! Let's do more this afternoon and get the notice tomorrow morning. There are many students, so business should be okay."

"Okay, I'll go out and help your second brother and the others catch fish..." Zhang Ying jumped up excitedly and was about to walk out.

Ning Xi helplessly called Zhang Ying, "Second sister-in-law, let's weave the fishing net first this afternoon, so that second brother and the others can catch more fish."

“Yes! Then I’ll call my mother to come over and help.”

After Zhang Ying left, Ning Xi recorded the account and handed it to Lu Nan along with the 12 yuan and 35 cents she earned. "Brother Nan, you are at home every day. It is safer to keep the money with you."

"Yeah!" Lu Nan agreed, took the ledger and money into the house, took the money and the notebook back into the house and put them away.

In the afternoon, Ning Xi, Zhang Ying, and Wang Xiuqin sat under the big tree outside the door and weaved a fishing net. The fishing net they bought had large gaps, so they had to add a few more fishing lines between the gaps to use it.

“You’re busy!” Aunt Yang from next door came out with a glass of water. “Why are you even weaving a fishing net? The little fish is so delicious.”

"Aunt Yang, sit down." Ning Xi brought a stool to Aunt Yang. When she got home, she took out some dried fish left over from this morning and handed them to Aunt Yang. "Aunt Yang, these are the dried fish I made myself. Take them back." Let's try it with Uncle Zhang, Brother Dajun and the others. "Although Aunt Yang also likes to gossip about people behind their backs, she usually takes good care of Lu Nan, and she remembers this feeling.

Aunt Yang was not polite to Ning Xi. She took the bowl and put one into her mouth. She immediately narrowed her eyes, "Yeah! This tastes great. Thank you. I'll take it back later and give it to you, Uncle Zhang, tonight." liquor."

“You’re welcome.” Ning Xi smiled slightly.

Aunt Yang held the bowl in her hands and chatted with gossip, "Ning Erlong and his wife brought Ning Juan back today. Did you know?"

“I haven’t been out all morning, so I don’t know.” Wang Xiuqin shook her head. She had been at home helping Lu Nan make spicy strips all morning and she didn’t go out.

Aunt Yang took a sip of water before continuing, "Chen Haijun sent it back and left it at Ning Erlong's house for lunch. I'm afraid his family is going to have a wedding."

Ning Xi's eyes flashed. Fortunately, Chen Haijun still wanted to marry Ning Juan, otherwise where would she go to see Ning Juan's retribution!

In her previous life, Ning Juan had a fight with Chen Haijun on the first day she entered the house, and she had a miscarriage. When Ning Juan took Ning Xi away from Sichuan, she was still confinement at home, and she was so weak that she could collapse if the wind blew.

She returned to Sichuan once after Shen Dazhi's death. She heard that not long after Ning Hong was recognized back to the Su family, Ning Dalong's family and Ning Erlong's family moved away, and Ning Juan also quietly followed her.

Wang Xiuqin responded nonchalantly, "The child is pregnant. It would be strange not to get married." Aunt Yang picked up two more dried fish and put them into her mouth and chewed them. "I heard Zhang Meixiu said that she heard Ning Erlong with her own ears." Warn Chen Haijun that if they can't come up with the 200 yuan gift within three days, they will still send Ning Juan to the hospital for an abortion. "

"200!" Zhang Ying's eyes widened with disbelief on her face. "Chen Haijun is from the village next to my parents' home. The Chen family only has two thatched houses. The family is so poor that they can hardly afford to eat. It's strange that Chen Haijun can come up with 200 yuan." ”

"Anyway, Chen Haijun agreed wholeheartedly." Aunt Yang picked up another small dried fish and put it into her mouth and chewed it. "By the way, I went to Ning Dalong to borrow a bicycle from Zhang Dahe in the middle of the night last night. Ning Hong seemed to be very sick. Seriously, he was tied to Ning Dalong’s back when he left.”

“Isn’t Ning Dalong still wearing a bandage on his hand?” Wang Xiuqin frowned. Ning Dalong’s hand was broken by Ning Xi. The whole village knew about it.

"Although Ning Dalong is not a thing, he is really good to Ning Hong. When he saw his daughter was sick, he didn't even care about the pain in his hands..." Before she could finish her words, Aunt Yang thought that Ning Xi, who was used as a servant by the Ning family, was still there. , quickly shut up.

What a selfish person Ning Dalong is!

He was able to endure the pain for his daughter.

Although he didn't care about the Ning family for a long time, knowing that Ning Dalong could ignore it for his eldest daughter, he still felt a little uncomfortable. He couldn't help but ask himself: What on earth did she do wrong to make her parents so unhappy? like.

Because of this incident, she was not in a high mood that afternoon. When giving Lu Nan acupuncture in the evening, she couldn't help but talk about Ning Hong.

"I heard that Ning Hong is ill. It seems to be quite serious. She can't even sit on a bicycle." She observed his expression while inserting the needle. She was like most women, even if he had no relationship with the other party, or even Even though he said a lot of vicious words, he still couldn't help but test her, wondering if he really didn't care anymore.

He lay lazily, not feeling any emotions because of her words. "Didn't you say you were severing ties with their family?"

“Hmm!” This means severing relations, and the whole village knows it.

“So it’s not our turn to worry about whether Ning Hong is dead or alive when it comes to their family affairs. It’s enough for us to live our own lives well.”

Do you really not care at all?

Ning Xi continued to stare at Lu Nan, and there was really nothing strange on his face.
