Chapter 51 - 51 Ambition
Liang Wen would come over to take a look sometimes. He wanted to touch Sisi’s little face, but he didn’t expect to see a bright-colored scarf neatly placed on the small counter. He was shocked.
It was no different from the stores outside. The colors and patterns could be seen clearly, so the customers could know which one they wanted at a glance.
“It does look like it.” He mumbled to himself, but Lin He heard him.
“That’s right! Our Boss Qu and I set it up together. It’s so refreshing, and I can tell it’s a high-end product with one look!”
Liang Wen nodded. It was indeed tasteful. The color classification was done very well and could be described as pleasing to the eye.
He picked up Sisi and kissed her hard on the cheek. “You and Mommy stay here and earn money! To earn money for milk powder.”
Sisi seemed to have understood what he was saying, and she kicked her legs and giggled.
“She said that Daddy is so handsome.” Liang Wen’s pampering expression was written all over his face as he looked at Qu Zhi as if he was asking for praise.
Qu Zhi couldn’t help but burst out laughing. “She said you should go somewhere cool.”
They had brought quite a lot of goods that day, but they were all sold in the end.
Qu Zhi had learned this before. It was called “retaliatory consumption.”
Based on this trend, it would sell even better tomorrow. When she thought of this, she felt a ripple in her heart. She felt this was not just pure happiness but more like passion and strength. She thought she had a lot of confidence now and could do better.
The two of them did a careful calculation. Today, they had earned a few hundred more than yesterday. Qu Zhi smoothed out the crumpled change and kept it neatly. She wanted to save this money and use it for investment.
Seeing that she was silent, Lin He felt that Qu Zhi must have some other plans. She quickly asked, “What’s the matter, Boss? Do you have any new ideas?”
Lin He was thrilled today. This sum of money was really quite a lot. Not only was it enough to buy a new bag, but if she continued to make money like this, her husband would probably have a whole new level of respect for her!
Qu Zhi gritted her teeth and told her, “I’m going to start a company to make money by accepting orders.”
“It’s only the second day, and you’re already thinking of starting a company!” Qu Zhi was too daring. Besides, in this era, which woman would start a company? Didn’t everyone support their husband and raise their children at home or live a life of basic necessities?
In her shock, Lin He confirmed Qu Zhi’s expression. She wasn’t muddled by the excitement and didn’t seem to be joking. She was serious!
However, Lin He’s shock did not last long. She believed that Qu Zhi’s decision was very likely to be correct. From buying stocks to selling scarves, she had a new understanding of the woman in front of her.
She had initially thought that Qu Zhi was just a lowly housewife who was stubborn and didn’t have her own opinions. Most importantly, she didn’t know how to dress up and would find it embarrassing to walk out with her.
After spending so much time with her, she gradually realized that she had a good business mind and good taste in clothes. Lin He had long started to believe in her and even idolized her. She could not find a second friend who was so good at making money.
Lin He decided to support Qu Zhi. She was truly capable of making money, so she was willing to be her ‘little brother’. She believed that Qu Zhi’s ambition would also get her to make money!
When she brought Chuchu home in the evening, she bought an extra candied fruit. The little Chuchu carried a large bag of candied fruit and skipped around like a little squirrel who had picked up an acorn.
Chuchu’s heart was already filled with sweetness even though she hadn’t eaten the candied plums yet. These were specially bought for her by her mother, and they were enough for her to eat for many, many days!
Liang Wen got off work very early today. As soon as he returned, Chuchu ran and jumped, stuffing a piece of peach candy into his mouth.
Liang Wen didn’t like to eat such sweet things, but he still squinted his eyes and asked Chuchu, “What’s wrong? Does mom have money to celebrate with you?”
Chuchu was grinning from ear to ear as she nodded her head vigorously. Her pigtails were swaying back and forth, and she was so happy that it seemed like her eyes were about to overflow.
Liang Wen also felt that it was very healing. He couldn’t help but rub her little head and pinch her little face. “Remember to brush your teeth.”
