After Black Lotus became a reborn person, he went completely crazy

The older sister happened to have witnessed it all with her own eyes. She was trembling with fear and lowered her head even more, for fear that Xia Ran would notice her again.

She must have accidentally offended someone. It was so damn scary. This woman was so dark and vicious.

She is usually a bit domineering and is well-known in her husband's family and her own village for not wanting to suffer any loss. But she doesn't have the courage or the character to do this.

Finally, everything returned to calm. Xia Ran smelled the oranges and arrived at the county town, returning to this place that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Some of the leaves have fallen, and the small county town looks even more depressed and desolate.

This place is fine in other months, but it is bare in winter. The loess walls that have been washed by rain for countless years are extremely desolate, giving you an unreal feeling of traveling through time and space.

Xia Ran went straight to the largest guesthouse in the county and stayed there. She first strolled around the street looking for an empty yard. She walked around the village near the national highway and asked everyone she met.

I was almost losing confidence after asking so many questions, but there really was a yard. A warm-hearted old man took Xia Ran over to have a look. It was uninhabitable as half of the house had collapsed. The owner was now living in an apartment building. This was an old house and they had no extra money, so they just left it abandoned temporarily.

"This is my eldest brother's house. I plan to tear it down and rebuild it in a few years when I have more money. Do you think it can be used?"

"Uncle, it can be used as is. I'll just pile some things here. It'll only take three to five days. Can you help me ask if your eldest brother agrees? I'll rent it for 5 yuan, and I can use it for 5 days at most." Xia Ran took a look and found a good location. It was at the end of the village, and there were orchards on both sides of it. It looked like there were pear trees.

"Okay, that's a good price. Wait for me. When my son comes back in the evening, I'll ask him to go to his uncle's house."

"Does your eldest brother have a telephone at home? Or is there a telephone near where he lives? We can call and ask. I'll pay for the call."

"Yes, yes, yes, OK, let's go. There's a small shop at the other end of the village. There's a phone there."

"it is good."

Finally I called to ask, and the other party had no problem with it so he agreed right away. After all, it was just a shabby yard, so there was no need to worry about it being damaged, as it was already in such bad shape anyway.

Xia Ran said a few words to the other party on the phone and said that he would give the money directly to his brother. The old man on the other end of the phone agreed, and the matter was finalized.

The old man who accompanied him on the phone call was also very efficient and not at all vague. Xia Ran handed him 5 yuan, and without saying a word, he gave Xia Ran the key, pointed to his door, and told him to remember to return the key after use.

Xia Ran returned to the restaurant in front of the guesthouse and ordered two bowls of beef noodles. They also gave her a small portion of kimchi. The noodles contained diced beef, onions, vermicelli, carrots, garlic sprouts, etc. They tasted great.

Then he found a place and called Secretary Wang to tell him.

The next morning, just after 8:30, she followed the procedure Secretary Wang had given her and took her ID card to apply for a business license and tobacco license.

Since arrangements had been made in advance, these two things were done extraordinarily quickly. Xia Ran didn't have to wait any longer, nor did he have to pick it up another day. The certificate was issued on the spot. This is a true reflection of a society based on personal connections.

If you have someone in the court, everything will be easy to talk about and handle. If you don’t have someone, even the smallest thing can get you stuck.

Xia Ran returned to the land she had bought. It was very clean without any garbage or other messy things. It seemed that Sister Su, who sold the cold noodles, had put in a lot of effort.

Then I went to the department store and found Director Min. I mainly wanted to ask where I could buy plastic tarpaulin.

Director Min stared at Xia Ran for a long time. "Incredible, incredible, Miss Xia, where have you been recently? Or did you take some magical medicine? You have changed so much, I can hardly recognize you."

Several other salespeople who had dealt with Xia Ran also gathered around, "Sister Xia, what did you eat? The change is too big, or did you apply something?"

"I didn't eat anything. I just didn't get any sun recently. I went to another place. Maybe the soil and water there are good, so I naturally became a lot whiter."

"Sister Xia, you haven't just become whiter, you've completely transformed. I'm so envious, Sister Xia."

"It's not that exaggerated. Maybe my skin was too bad before, so the slightest change feels like a huge difference. If you have good skin, even if you get whiter, it probably won't be noticeable. I usually just apply pearl cream and I'm too lazy to do anything else."

Then he got to the point, "Does anyone know where I can buy that kind of thick tarpaulin? If I don't have thick tarpaulin, plastic sheeting will do."

"Sister Xia, what do you want it for?"

"I got some goods back from abroad and planned to sell them at the exchange meeting. Sorry, I forgot that we are in the same business."

"It's okay, Sister Xia. This is public property, not private. It doesn't matter whether we sell more or less. We don't care. By the way, Sister Xia, what good stuff have you got?"

Xia Ran felt relieved when she heard that, and she added a few more words: "Watches, cameras, leather shoes, children's clothing, fabrics, socks, towels, bicycles, etc. When I have the goods ready, you can come and have a look. I can sell them to you at a lower price. You gave me a lot of discount in the beginning."

"Sister Xia, you can do it. You are so amazing."

"To be exact, it's not me who's powerful, it's my boss. I'm just an employee, but I can still decide on the discount. One more thing, do you have anyone around you who's reliable, good at accounting, and can sell goods? I still need some salespeople. The wage is 10 yuan a day, calculated on a daily basis."

"Sister Xia, how much did you say?"

"10 yuan a day."

Director Min joked: "Sister Xia, you are doing this purely to shake the morale of my troops."

"That's right, Sister Xia, after hearing what you said, I don't really want to take this job anymore. The salary you offer is too attractive." One of the older sisters said jokingly.

"Big sister, I've only been selling these few days. I don't sell every day. During the exchange meeting, there are a lot of people. I must be very busy and hard-working. It's reasonable to offer a higher price to everyone. But yours is different. You have a stable job."

Xia Ran then added: "Also, those who perform well will receive bonus red envelopes, so if you have reliable handsome guys and beautiful girls around you, remember to recommend them to me. I also want those big sisters who are good at talking and calculating."

"Okay, Sister Xia, how can I contact you?"

"This is a good thing, Sister Xia."

"Come find me tomorrow at the vacant lot at the west gate of No. 1 Middle School. I plan to put the goods there."

"Your area is not in the central area. I see many merchants from other places have come here intermittently and are already setting up their tents."
