After quitting 996, I became the master of the deserted planet

Chu Jiao received Chu Ma's gaze and quickly changed the subject

"Aunt, has Xiaoyi gone to school?" Chu Jiao came twice but didn't see her uncle's son Wang Yi. The last time she came, he was working as a summer intern.

"Back to school. Left a few days ago."

"Do you have a girlfriend at school?" Aunt Chu Jiao asked curiously

"He said he's dating someone, but don't worry about him. I've never heard of many romances in school that work out." Chu Jiao's aunt had no hope.

Chu Jiao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that they had changed the subject.

Over there, Dad Chu and my uncle and his wife were smoking in the kitchen with the range hood on (my aunt is in poor health and can't stand the smell of smoke, so my uncle would hide in the kitchen and smoke with the range hood on whenever he wanted to smoke)

"Is your project finished? When will you start working again?" Chu's father was puzzled. In the past, he could only finish the project and go home at the end of the year.

"The economy is in recession now, and it's so difficult to collect payment for the projects we've taken on. Many bosses would rather rest than take any orders. The construction site over there has finished, and the boss is not planning to take any more work for the time being. He needs to get the previous project payment back first, otherwise he won't be able to pay the wages." Chu Jiao's uncle is also worried. A whole family is waiting for food, what will he do if he rests at home with no income?

"It's been very difficult to get money in the past two years. Several of the contractors I know can't pay their employees and are running away without going home." Chu's father has a deep understanding of this. In the past few years, he couldn't get paid after the project was completed. He is relatively conscientious and paid the employees out of his own pocket, almost losing all his family's savings. Fortunately, he still has two houses as a backup plan, otherwise he would have to go out to work to earn money.

"Rest at home for a few days first, and then ask which construction site needs workers." Chu Jiao's uncle was also anxious. The family needed money for their little daughter's schooling, and the family had a mortgage to pay. The salary that Aunt Chu Jiao earned from working in the factory was not enough, and the workers could not afford to rest.

"I'll ask my friends around me and then they'll tell you. Don't worry, take a few days to rest." Chu's father comforted them.

It was almost time to prepare dinner. Chu Jiao's aunt and auntie went into the kitchen to cook, and Dad Chu and the others gave up their seats.

When Chu Jiao saw her uncle coming out of the kitchen, she asked, "Uncle, how many days will you guys rest at home?"

"The project over there is finished, there is no work to do for the time being, I need to rest for a while," said Chu Jiao's uncle with a smile.

Chu Jiao looked at her uncle's tanned face on the construction site and felt a little distressed. It must be hard to work on the construction site in such a hot day. An immature idea came to her mind.

"Uncle, uncle, I have an idea, listen to it, if you don't like it, forget it."

"What idea?"

"Would you like to consider opening a fruit and vegetable store to sell the agricultural products grown by my classmate's family? Their agricultural products are quite popular, and our supermarket is too busy to handle them. I see that there is no fruit store at the entrance of your community yet, so you should be able to attract business." The nearest fruit store here is in the community opposite, and it looks close, but it is quite far away when you walk there.

"I think we can give it a try. The occupancy rate in this neighborhood is quite high now, so there should be some business. It doesn't require much investment. Just find a house, paint the walls white, and put some shelves inside. The rent is the biggest expense, and the shelves don't cost much." Mother Chu couldn't bear to part with her younger brother the most. When Chu Jiao's grandfather passed away, he was only eighteen years old, just about to go to college. For this reason, he didn't even go to college, and went out to work with others to support the family. She couldn't help much either. If he was willing to open a store, whether it was easy or not was another matter, but at least he wouldn't have to be outside in the wind and sun. Also, it was safe. On the construction site outside, he always had to climb high, and accidents could easily happen if he wasn't careful.

"If you have any ideas, you can give it a try. I don't think the risk is big. Even if the worst-case scenario is that you can't continue and have to give up, the loss won't be that big." Father Chu thinks that with the quality of the crops grown by his daughter, as long as there is a supply, there is no need to worry about sales. Nowadays, people are better off financially and are more willing to spend money on food.

Dad Chu still attaches great importance to his wife's younger brothers and sisters. Not to mention that Mom Chu only has this one brother. When he couldn't get the project payment and salary a few years ago, relatives and friends were afraid of being dragged down and ran away. Even his two sisters were afraid of being dragged down and were unwilling to contact him. His brother-in-law and sister-in-law sent their own family assets to help him. He kept it in mind. As long as his brother-in-law and his sister-in-law are willing to do it, he will definitely support them with all his strength.

"You guys go back and discuss it. If you want to do it, go ahead. If you don't have money to rent a house, I still have some." Chu Jiao's grandmother was ready to reveal her secrets.

"Mom, keep your own money and don't take it out all the time. If they don't have enough money, we can borrow it." Chu's mother can't stand the old lady asking for money all the time.

"No, no, I need to discuss it with Jiaojiao's aunt. If I'm ready to do it, I'll ask you to borrow money if I don't have enough money." Chu Jiao's uncle quickly stopped Chu's mother and the others.

"It's time to eat, come and eat quickly." Aunt Chu Jiao called for dinner.

Chu Jiao finished her thoughts and went to eat happily, and got her uncle and uncle-in-law entangled.

When leaving after dinner, Chu's mother told her brother and brother-in-law, "Go home and discuss it carefully. Don't worry. Call me if you have any questions."

On the way home, Chu Jiao was afraid that her father might have some ideas, so she explained, "Dad, go ask my aunt and the others, if they want to open a store, we can also supply them."

"No need to call. I understand their personalities. They won't be willing to take risks. If they have any ideas, just call me." Father Chu knew the tempers of his two sisters. If he took the initiative to call and ask, and they really agreed to open a store, it would be fine if they made money, but if they didn't, they would definitely blame him. Unlike his brother-in-law, no matter what the matter was, as long as he made a decision, he would not have to worry about regrets or complaints, whether it was good or bad.

Chu Jiao thought it would take a long time for her uncles to make a decision. The next day after dinner, her father received a call. Her uncles planned to open a joint venture store to try. One reason was to reduce the risk, and the other was that they would not have to borrow money. When they made money, they would split it equally.

Chu Jiao thought this was fine. They had no business experience, so they could gain some experience together first, and then open branches when they made some money.

Chu Jiao's uncle rented a shop near the south gate of the community. The two floors upstairs and downstairs together are about 200 square meters. There was no other way. The owner refused to rent one room, so he had to rent both floors together. The annual rent was 60,000 yuan. Fortunately, it was within the affordable range, so he signed the contract and paid without hesitation.

Next, Chu Jiao accompanied Chu Ma to work in their own supermarket. It happened to be the Mid-Autumn Festival and there were many people buying things. Many people also suggested that the supermarket should prepare some gift boxes. Chu Ma could only smile and say that she was not prepared this year and would wait until next year. She really couldn't do it. She was too busy to sell the goods individually.

Chu's father accompanied his brother-in-law to tidy up the shop and paint the walls. Chu Jiao's uncle did it himself. When he first started working, he learned decoration from others and worked as a painter. Because the smell was too strong, Chu Jiao's grandmother was afraid that it would be bad for his health and didn't let him do it, so he went to work at a construction site outside.

There is strength in numbers. Dad Chu took his brother-in-law to run the formalities and buy shelves, while his brother-in-law was busy painting the walls and installing the lights. It was done in half a month.

During this period, Chu Jiao went to the desolate planet to harvest again and sold half to the system. The current balance of the energy coin account is:. The goods left in the system space can only be sold after the uncle is done with his work.

Before the opening, Chu Jiao and the others went to visit in advance. The cashier was at the entrance. There were two rows of shelves against the wall, which were used to store snacks and drinks. There was also a large refrigerator on one wall, where you could put anything that needed to be kept fresh and refrigerated. In the middle were fruit and vegetable racks. The second floor was considered a warehouse.

Dad Chu took his brother-in-law and the others to visit all the procurement channels for snacks. He tried his best and made no reservations. It was inconvenient for them to know the source of the agricultural products from Chu Jiao. They agreed to take the goods from Dad Chu first and record the accounts. The accounts would be settled at the end of each month. The price was lower than selling to the wholesale market. After all, they were all from their own products and there was basically no cost. No matter how much they paid, they would make a profit. They couldn't refuse and there was no way to explain why.

They picked a good day for the opening, September 18th. Chu Jiao went to the flower shop in advance to order two large flower baskets to be sent over. She also sent a message to her own fruit and vegetable group, informing those who lived close to the community that they could come directly here to buy.

On the opening day, everyone came to help when the Chu Family Supermarket was closed. Chu Jiao took her aunt to the cashier to settle the bills, her uncle and auntie were responsible for moving and restocking the goods, and Aunt Chu Jiao and her mother and father were responsible for entertaining. At the beginning, her aunt and the others were still very busy and couldn't let go, but they gradually got the hang of it.

Chujiao brand agricultural products are still very good, and they are already well-known in Liyang City. Many old customers who live nearby come to support us. Those who live in this community are very happy. This place is right at the entrance of the community and close to home. They don’t have to go so far in the future.

At the end of the day, most of the goods prepared were sold out. Chu Jiao's aunt and auntie finally felt relieved. Aunt Chu Jiao even quit her job at the factory. She was working hard. Grandma smiled and said it was a good start.

When you relax, you're in the mood to joke.

"Sister, your family won't have to spend money to buy rice and vegetables for us in the future, we have our own," Chu Jiao's aunt said to Chu's mother with a smile, and Aunt Chu Jiao laughed as she listened.

"Okay, you guys eat at your own house, I save money." Chu's mother also laughed. Her sister and brother-in-law are really tactful. They are afraid of taking advantage of others. Even her family members can't do that.

After the fruit and vegetable shop closed, Chu's mother asked her brothers and sisters to go home and rest quickly. They must be very tired after a busy day.

"We won't be coming tomorrow. You've all gotten used to it today. Your brother-in-law will come to deliver the goods to you tomorrow morning." Mother Chu greeted her younger siblings.

"Just go about your business. We've already delayed you for the whole day. Don't worry, there's enough of us here to help."

After Chu Jiao and the others left, Chu Jiao's uncle and aunt checked the accounts together. They found that the profit for the day was not small, and they felt more confident instantly.

After Chu Jiao and his family got home, they agreed to wait until Chu's father delivered the goods to Chu Jiao's uncle the next day, and then go to the wholesale market to deal with the newly harvested agricultural products.

It took three days to process half of the inventory in the system space, and the bank card balance increased to nearly 30 million. During the sales period, Chu Jiao placed an order for 1,000 red pine saplings online. After the arrival, they were stored in the system space.

After stocking up the house, Chu Jiao went to the desolate planet. The planting task assigned to the planting robot last time was almost completed, and she was going to go over and assign it another task.
