Chuan Shu Qi Leng: I own a department store

Lu Qiangjun drank two large glasses of water before suppressing the painful pain on the tip of his tongue and throat.

He looked at the basin full of crayfish and stretched his hand in the air, ready to move, but as soon as he thought of the numbing feeling in his mouth, he finally held it back.

The crayfish was indeed delicious, but I was right, he was the one who suffered from the spicy food.

"Aunt Xu, crayfish is indeed delicious, but I can't eat spicy food, so I won't eat it. Thank you for your kindness."

The rest of the Lu family, like Qiang Jun, glanced at the plate with crayfish from time to time, but no one took the initiative to reach out with chopsticks to pick it up.

Only then did Xu Wanning realize that the Lu family was from the coastal areas of southern Fujian. They were well aware of the nature of water, but they really couldn't eat spicy food.

"It's my fault that I didn't think carefully and brought such spicy crayfish."

"Look what you said, it's enough if you remember us in your heart. But Xiao Xu, we can't bear this crayfish. You can take it back to avoid spoiling it."

"That's fine. When my friend develops garlic-flavored crayfish later, I will bring it to you specially."

After a pause, Xu Wanning stated the purpose of her trip.

"Actually, when I come here today, in addition to sending crayfish for you to taste, I actually have another thing to do. I need to ask the Qiangjun brothers."

Upon hearing his name, Lu Qiangjun immediately stood up straight, looked at Xu Wanning with burning eyes, and asked eagerly: "Aunt Xu, do you want crayfish?"

"Yes. I sent the crayfish to the restaurant today. After my friend prepared it, it tasted quite good and the sales were also very good, so my friend planned to purchase crayfish in large quantities. I heard from Lin An, Commander Lu, your family Several of my children have good water skills, so I came here to ask if you would like to collect more crayfish, and I will give you money in exchange."

After hearing the first half of Xu Wanning's words, Sister-in-law Chen subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Although the crayfish Xu Wanning brought over was enough to make people salivate just by smelling it, it was essentially an ugly insect that made Sister-in-law Chen scared even if she took another look at it.

If a few little ones really catch these bugs every day and they get everywhere in the house, she will really collapse.

But after hearing the second half of Xu Wanning's words, Sister-in-law Chen felt that it was not impossible.

Xu Wanning has always been generous, and they will never suffer a loss when trading with her.

Although Lao Lu's monthly allowance is quite large, there are many children in the family, and they are all boys. The so-called half-grown children are living in poverty. They only rely on Lao Lu's allowance. They can barely make ends meet and save very little money every year.

Seeing that the eldest brother is already fourteen or fifteen years old, it will be time to see him in a few years. Can we not make arrangements in advance?

Therefore, Sister-in-law Chen forced her refusal back, changed the subject, and said: "Look what you said, just ask the Qiangjun brothers to pick them up for you. The crayfish are almost overflowing. You can pick them up in a short time." It’s a big bucket and it doesn’t take any effort, so why talk about money!”

"My friend needs a large amount of crayfish, weighing more than ten kilograms every day. We can't let the children work for free every day, right? I discussed it with my friend and exchanged it with you at the price of [-] cents per kilogram of crayfish. What? Sample?"

"I do, Aunt Xu, I do!" Before Sister-in-law Chen could say anything, Lu Qiangjun couldn't wait to answer.

He and his brothers are all good at catching crayfish. It is not a problem to catch twenty kilograms a day, which can be exchanged for two yuan!

Although the bulk of the money must be given to mother, it should be okay for each of them to keep a dime, right?

Thinking about how many candies you can buy with just a dime, Lu Qiangjun couldn't help but get excited and eager to try.

Sister-in-law Chen and Xu Wanning pushed and shoved for a while, and the matter was settled.

"But I have one request. Every crayfish you give me must be alive. I don't want any dead ones."

"No problem! Don't worry, Aunt Xu, we are the best at catching crayfish, and we will ensure that every one is plump and plump."

"Okay. Then you go catch it tomorrow. I'll come back to you tomorrow afternoon. We'll weigh you on the spot and pay the money and deliver the goods."

After confirming this matter, Xu Wanning left the Lu family with the crayfish she brought.

As soon as she stepped forward, the Lu family burst into cheers.

"Mom, we can make money! We can generate income for our family with our own hands!" Lu Qiangjun shook Sister-in-law Chen's shoulders, making her head dizzy.

Sister-in-law Chen slapped her youngest son's hand: "Let me go first!"

"Mom, let's discuss it. I'll give you most of the money for catching crayfish. How about giving each of us ten cents a day?"

Sister-in-law Chen agreed without thinking.

"Since this is the money you earned on your own, it's okay to share it with you. But as the ugly saying goes, the prerequisite for making money is to ensure your own safety. If you let yourself go into deep water just for those few cents, Come back carefully and I'll reward you with fried pork with bamboo shoots!"

"Don't worry, Mom, we know what's going on!"

Seeing the boys cheering and cheering, Sister-in-law Chen shook her head with a chuckle and stood up to put away the dishes.

On the other side, after Xu Wanning returned to the Xu family, she asked Mother Lin to help find someone to clean the crayfish.

“Are many people eating crayfish?”

"A lot." Xu Wanning said with a smile: "Today I brought more than 20 kilograms in total. Except for the ones I brought home, the rest are all sold out. Moreover, the price of crayfish is high, and the benefits are very good."

Although crayfish are relatively time-limited, they can only be eaten from June to August every year, which is only a short period of three months.

But the income in these three months is as much as the restaurant's net profit in several months.

And her investment cost is pitifully low, only one or two cents per pound of crayfish.

Moreover, there are crayfish in her space. In addition to purchasing them from the Lu family boys, she can also bring in private goods and mix in the crayfish in the space. In this way, the cost will be even lower.

Thinking of crayfish, Xu Wanning couldn't help but think of beer.

Beer and crayfish are a perfect pairing.

But today, there are no beer manufacturers on the market.

Xu Wanning knew the steps of making beer, but she didn't know whether she could make it.

With her current assets, it is not enough to open a production line to produce beer. The pressure can be placed on Limin Food Factory.

Speaking of which, she hasn't been to Limin Food Factory for a long time. She can take some time to go there in the next two days to talk to Director Zhang about her plans, and by the way, she can also get a dividend to fill her small coffers.

"Okay, then I will go find my little sisters tomorrow. Aning, how many people do you need in total?"
