Chapter 1286 Big Business
Li Gui thought for a moment and continued, "If anyone wants more than 50 pounds of braised meat, you can order it one day in advance! However, you have to make payment in advance too. When you come to buy it, you have to prepare your own containers. I don't have any containers with me."
"Alright!" everyone said in unison.
Before she left, she gave the guard one pound of each type of braised meat and some popcorn, as a way of asking him to be magnanimous and let her off. This gesture was always very effective with security guards.
Li Gui was still in a daze on the way home. She even felt that she might have priced it wrongly. They would probably still buy it even if it was priced at two dollars a pound. She was already heading home less than two hours after she started selling. Those people even bought all the remaining sauce to bring home to use as gravy.
Qiao Mei sat on the swing at home and basked in the sun. She had thought that Li Gui would only be back at night!
"Mom! How did you do!" Qiao Mei asked as she looked at Li Gui expectantly.
When Li Gui left the house, her waist pouch was still flat and empty. It was now bulging and almost could not be closed. She hurriedly pulled Qiao Mei towards the backyard, into her room and she quickly closed the door. As soon as she opened the bag, all the money inside sprang out.
"Look, look! This is all the money I earned! This is much more profitable than selling popcorn!" Li Gui said excitedly as she held the money.
The two of them counted the money carefully. There was a total of 135 dollars! They had made so much money in just three hours! Even after they deducted the cost and labor fees, they still made a lot of profit!
Li Gui danced around excitedly. In the future, there would be more people queuing up to buy the braised meat. That represented money! There was still a big order of 120 pounds tomorrow! She must ask Chi Ze to buy more pig offal later.
At night, Xia Wen came to Qiao Mei's house with a lot of things again. Xia Zhe was in the room coaxing the babies. Qiao Mei was really glad that she had twins. If she had only given birth to one child, the two brothers would definitely be fighting it out.
"Eldest Brother, don't carry Xia Xing for so long. Spend more time with Xia Fan. Xia Xing is so spoiled by you that she doesn't even want to sleep on the bed," Xia Zhe said unhappily.
"But our Xia Xing is so adorable! Look, she's smiling at me!" Xia Wen said happily. Whenever he saw Xia Xing's smile, he felt like all the troubles of the day had disappeared.
"In that case, if she doesn't want to sleep on the bed in the future, Eldest Brother will have to come and carry Xia Xing to sleep every day. Sister Feng has been so tired for the past two days and her shoulders are aching!" Qiao Mei said as she stood at the door.
Xia Wen wanted nothing more than to hug Xia Xing and not let go! It was not that he did not like Xia Fan, but Xia Xing was more lovable. Xia Wen and Xia Zhe had the same educational philosophy.
The boy should suffer more and nurture iron-like will and strength so that he could face the world on his own. They just needed to make sure that he did not starve to death. Apart from that, he should grow up freely.
However, it was different for the girl! A girl must be cherished and protected carefully. They wanted to treat her like a princess and give her the best things in the world. As long as it was something that Xia Xing wanted, they would try their best to satisfy her.
"If you spoil her, I want to know which one of you will take responsibility for it!" Qiao Mei said in a fit of pique.
"There won't be any problems! Don't worry, if there's really no other way, we can ask Grandfather to take care of her. Anyone whom Grandfather brings up will become an elite overachiever. Xia Xing will become just like Eldest Aunt, a heroic rose!" Xia Wen said.
Qiao Mei tried to imagine what that would be like. If Xia Xing turned out to be similar to Xia Xiu, then would Qiao Mei be the mother or the daughter in the relations.h.i.+p? Xia Xiu was merciless when she reprimanded Xia Jun!
Previously, Xia Jun had even secretly complained about this matter to Qiao Mei. He said he did not know who was the father and who was the child, making Qiao Mei laugh out loudly.
"Forget it," Qiao Mei said with a pout.
"Did something joyous happen to Auntie? I heard her singing when I came in and she's still singing now! I've never seen her so happy before," Xia Wen asked curiously.
"It's the braised meat you tried a few days ago. She made good sales today and is in high spirits. I hear that there's a big order of 120 pounds tomorrow and she's so excited that she's already starting to prepare the ingredients now. It's already difficult to prepare the 70 to 80 pounds she sold today, yet she now wants to sell more than 100 pounds. I can't dissuade her, but it's fine as long as she's happy," Qiao Mei said with a deep sigh.
"Do you want me to arrange a car for Auntie?" Xia Wen asked.
"Arrange for a car? Just open a shop for her!" Qiao Mei said with a laugh.
