There is a mountain in her arms

Chapter 48 Jiang Fengying has an idea

"Eh? Dong Wan, are you sure it's her you're talking about?"

The department store manager was a little suspicious. So small?

"A hero should not ask where he came from. Manager Xie, I am sure it is her. You guys chat, I will go back to work first."

When Sister Wan saw the manager's expression, she told him firmly and left.

"Eh? Sorry to make you laugh. You're really unexpected."

"It's human nature. I'm used to it. Let's get back to business! Does the manager want to talk to me about accessories?"

"Great! I'm very optimistic about the things you sell. I'm going to set up a special counter to display them."

"Of course, I can, but I can only give you a discount of five cents per item, otherwise I will sell it myself."

"What's your name, little girl?"

"My surname is Jiang."

“Comrade Jiang, it will take you several times longer to sell the flowers yourself, but in our building it may only take a few days.”

"It doesn't matter. I can hire my classmates to help. My classmates live in different places. As long as they sell well in their own areas, there is no need to worry about slow sales. More importantly, I only need to pay a small amount of money to satisfy them, and I won't suffer any loss."

"But if we only give a 5% discount, we may not be able to sell our building."

Manager Xie was a little conflicted. If they gave a 5% discount, it was not impossible for them to get it, but they would earn less.

"Manager Xie, can't you go the mid-range route?"

"For example, your clothing store could set up two mannequins, tie scarves on them, put hairpins on their heads, and then match them with clothes. You can kill three birds with one stone."

"For example, if your counter is equipped with strong white light to make the accessories sparkle, wouldn't it be attractive? Then no matter how expensive you sell them, people will be willing to buy them."

"People tend to follow the crowd. If the salespeople in your department store are equipped with these things, this is not a living signboard!"

The three points raised by Jiang Yicheng suddenly enlightened Manager Xie. He rubbed his hands and walked back and forth for a minute, his eyes shining.

"Comrade Jiang, you are so talented. If you were a few years older, I would like to invite you to work in our department store and give us advice."

"Haha! Thank you for your kindness! Manager Xie, are we still doing business?"

Jiang Yichen has always been very calm. Compared with what she did last year, this small business is just a drizzle.

"Do it, just as you say. How much can you deliver to us now?"

"I won't cheat you. Why don't I send you a large package first to test the effect. If there is a follow-up, I will send more."

"make a deal!"

Manager Xie personally escorted Jiang Yichen out the door, which shocked the salesperson.

After Jiang Yichen went home and told his grandfather, the two of them rode their bicycles to deliver the goods.

The next day, Wang Quan came again. Jiang Yicheng took him and An An to various crowded places and earned more than 60 yuan in two days.

It’s still the same old rule, each of them gets ten yuan as a reward, and the rest goes to Jiang Yichen.

Five days later, Grandpa Jiang went to the department store on purpose to take a look and was grabbed by Manager Xie.

"Uncle Jiang, why did you come just now? We were out of stock, and you didn't leave me any contact information. I was so anxious that my hair fell out."

"Manager Xie, I have to look after the store every day, so I didn't pay attention. Do you want to continue placing orders? How much do you want this time?"

Even though Grandpa Jiang was hurt by Manager Xie's grab, he instantly diverted his attention when he heard his words.

"Send more than last time, two bags, no, three bags!"

"No problem! I'll go back and bring it to you right away!"

"Yes, yes, go now."

Manager Xie urged Grandpa Jiang to deliver the goods, so he went out immediately and rented a three-wheeled truck.

Three large packages were moved out of Jiang Yichen's room, placed on a tricycle, and hurriedly delivered to the department store.

Previously, these goods were all in her space, but later she was afraid that the department store would place another order, so she put these goods in her room.

The department store does have the ability to do so. This time, they sold out the three packs in just one week, and later they only ordered one pack.

Because they believe that after this period of time, buyers should have reached saturation and progress will slow down.

Jiang Yichen also agreed with what they said. There were still more than two bags left, and she planned to wait until the winter vacation to sell them.

It is now December, winter has officially arrived in Ning'an City, and they all put on cotton-padded jackets.

The Jiang family's restaurant has entered a period of great popularity. It is fully booked every day and there are people lining up.

Because workers passing by on their way to work also began to stop at their shop.

Zhou Lanhua and the other two were too busy to handle the work, so Grandma Jiang would occasionally go and lend a hand.

That day, Gu Yanbang brought Jiang Fengying to see them and brought good news.

"Now that the approval has been granted, can we build the road?"

"That's right! The city leaders have even written a note for you. You can use this note to buy the materials for the road repairs directly, and no one will hold you back."

"That's great! Xiao Gu, thank you so much! Please thank your big brother for us."

Grandpa Jiang held Gu Yanbang's hand, extremely excited.

"Uncle, I should be the one thanking you. Your ginseng can help my old man protect us a little longer, and now that the road is repaired, I should be transferred back to Kyoto."

"Really? That's a good thing! You've been here for five years without moving. We're the ones who are holding you back."

"Uncle, we don't like what you said. This is what Lao Gu should do. Besides, it is our blessing to be able to get along with you like family. Family members don't drag anyone down, they just take care of each other, and we feel the pure family love here. Lao Gu, don't you agree?"

Jiang Fengying refuted Grandpa Jiang's words, and revealed some true feelings.

"Yes! Uncle, you don't know that in a big family like ours, there is family affection, but it has to give way to interests. It can't be said that this is bad, but it is inhumane because the family must continue its glory."

When Grandpa Jiang heard what they said, he felt a little distressed for them.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. It's rare that you're here, so let your aunt cook some of her signature dishes for you. Chengcheng will come back for lunch at noon, and An'an will stay until the afternoon. You don't have to leave tonight, just stay here and go back tomorrow."

"Hey! I'm going right now!"

"Auntie, let me help you."

Grandma Jiang responded quickly and was about to go to the kitchen. Jiang Fengying took her arm affectionately and went with her.

Jiang Yichen returned home at noon and was very happy to see the two of them. When he heard about the road construction, he immediately discussed it with his grandfather.

"Grandpa, why don't you call uncle to come over? He can reunite with great-grandpa and his family for a few days. It's been such a long time, I think they miss him too."

"Of course, you can, but there's still Zixiao at home! The final exams are only a month away, and if your uncle leaves, there will be no one to take care of him."

"Then give him a call and see how they plan. We can put the road repair on the agenda. The fields are all clear right now."

"Well, I'll make the call this afternoon."

Jiang Yicheng had to go to class, so he left in a hurry after eating. Gu Yanbang heard that Grandpa Jiang had opened a store, so he suggested going to take a look, and the four of them walked over together.

"Uncle, this is a great idea. Although we can't make a lot of money, we can earn some money for the family."

Jiang Fengying took a look around and had an idea in her mind, and couldn't help but admire it.

"Haha! We old couple only know how to farm. This was Cheng Cheng's idea. She even made a list for us. It took us a long time to figure out the trick."

"Uncle, you have a granddaughter as smart and thoughtful as Chengcheng. You will be blessed in the future. I used to be envious, but now I treat her as my goddaughter, so I can also benefit from her in the future."

Jiang Fengying's words made the old couple laugh out loud, and they felt very happy.

"Yes, yes, we are all blessed. My eldest brother and his friends are over here, do you want to go over and take a look?"

"We have to go and take a look, uncle and aunt, this is also the connection you guys made, right?"

Jiang Fengying reacted immediately and admired the old couple's character even more.

"Haha! They still have to rely on themselves. I'll just move my mouth."

"Brother and sister-in-law, look who's here?"

Grandpa Jiang and his friends had just finished their meal and were preparing to sell things in the afternoon when they heard the voice of the second brother. He subconsciously looked up and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Hey! Director Gu, why are you here? Come in and sit down. My dear, this is the Director Gu I told you about before. This is my daughter-in-law."

Grandpa Jiang wiped his hands as he led them in and introduced things to them.

Grandma Jiang and Zhou Lanhua both wiped their hands, smiled and nodded at them, not knowing what to say at the moment.

"Uncle, we just came to take a look, you guys keep busy, keep busy."

Seeing that they were busy, Gu Yanbang didn't want to disturb them any further so as not to affect their business.

"It's okay, it's okay, we just prepared the food in advance. Director Gu, try our snacks and give your opinion. My dear, fry two servings for them to try."

Gu Yanbang wanted to refuse but was stopped by Grandpa Jiang.

"Try it. It's a good opportunity to tell them the good news you brought."

"Alright, thank you very much."

"What good news?"

Grandpa Jiang was a little confused.

Grandpa Jiang first asked the two to sit down, and then pulled the eldest brother over.

"Our village can build a road now. I plan to ask Weiguo to come over so that the village can start construction ahead of time and finish building the road as soon as possible."

"Really? Then ask him to come over quickly. I'll call him later and he can bring us some pickles and other things."

"Come on, try it, try it, how does it taste?"

Grandma Jiang and Zhou Lanhua also pricked up their ears to listen. They were very happy to know that the road could be repaired immediately.

Gu Yanbang picked up the chopsticks and tasted a piece of tofu, "This goes well with rice!" He tasted another piece of potato, "This one too, I think it goes well with rice."

Jiang Fengying tried them all and thought they were delicious.

"Even if I see it while I'm shopping, I'll buy one and eat it while walking."

"Haha! We just want to earn some hard-earned money, but we don't dare to think about selling it on the street."

This is how Grandma Jiang positions herself: her students are simple and enthusiastic.

"Auntie, there are only two stores like yours in front of the school. We are lucky to have no competition."

Jiang Fengying speaks the truth from her own perspective.

"It's okay for now. You don't know, but recently people have been asking us about renting this house. Aren't there three more rooms left? I think it will be ready soon."

"This house is so in short supply right now, why doesn't the owner rent it out?"

"She doesn't have time, and those people can't find her. The landlord's son is Cheng Cheng's classmate, and we just pay rent to his son every month. We haven't even signed a contract yet. Cheng Cheng said she would find a way to get the landlord to sign a contract with us, which would be safer."

Jiang Fengying also thought it made sense, nodded, and reminded them.

"Auntie, what Chengcheng said is right! Since others have also taken a fancy to this place, then signing the contract will protect you. I suggest that you sign for a longer period of time. The land prices in this city are rising very quickly, and the rent will also increase. At least within the contract period, the house price will not change."

"Brother, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. We signed a three-year contract at the beginning."

"Well! Let's figure out how to sign the contract when the time comes. We can't afford three years' rent all at once."

"It's okay! Just think it over. I can help you anytime."

"Ah! I know."

Grandpa Jiang didn't disturb them while they were working. He took the two of them back to the store, and the four of them talked about the changes that had taken place since they came to the city.

In the afternoon, Gu Yanbang and Grandpa Jiang went to pick up An An. Their school had a mandatory requirement not to leave the school at noon, so he always had lunch at school.

"Grandpa, Uncle Gu."

An An was very happy. He knew from childhood that his father was a soldier, so he was very close to Gu Yanbang, who was also a soldier. He felt that if his father was still alive, he would definitely be like this.

"An An, I haven't seen you for just over three months, and you've grown taller again."

Gu Yanbang lifted him up and held him in the air twice before putting him down.

"Uncle Gu, I've grown up."

"In your uncle's eyes, you will always be a brat."

An An's eyes were full of admiration, and Grandpa Jiang did not stop him. He knew that An An lacked fatherly love in her heart and would always treat Gu Yanbang like this.

"Okay, let's go home! Your aunt Ying is here too, and they'll be staying over at our house tonight."

"Yeah! That's great, Uncle Gu. I have a lot of questions for you and a lot to say to you."

"Okay, let's go home and listen to you together."

Gu Yanbang always feels particularly gentle when he looks at his face which is exactly the same as the battalion commander's.

The house became lively again in the evening. An An was like a little bee, pestering Gu Yanbang to ask questions, and then running to Jiang Fengying to ask questions.

After dinner he still insisted on having Gu Yanbang teach him how to practice martial arts. Gu Yanbang and his wife were quite indulgent.

The next day, before An An went to school, he mysteriously gave Jiang Fengying a picture book.

Jiang Fengying cried secretly after reading it in her room. After they returned home in the afternoon, she showed the picture book to Gu Yanbang. After reading it, Gu Yanbang's eyes also turned red.

It turned out that the picture book contained his imagination of what his parents looked like, because he didn't know what his parents looked like.

But the scenes in all his paintings were what the two of them had done with him.

The last page of the painting is a family portrait, with two children, one big and one small, holding two adults, and two elderly people beside them looking at them with smiles.

On the back of the painting were two sentences: Although I have never seen my parents, I can imagine that if they were still alive, they would be exactly like the way I imagine them to be. Uncle and aunt, I think you are very similar to my imaginary parents.

"Lao Gu, I want to be Cheng Cheng and An An's godmother. Even if my family objects, I will still acknowledge them."

Jiang Fengying picked up the sketchbook again and couldn't help crying.

"Okay! I owe them this anyway. Thank you for helping me."

Gu Yanbang pulled her into his arms, his voice hoarse.
