Chapter 71 Return to the Village

Shen Jing and Lin Yiping walked around the bustling city for a few rounds. The city was bustling with people and cars, men and women dressed fashionably and gorgeously, and there were many shops. They walked around excitedly and bought many new and interesting things.

"Yiping, look at this. If you buy it for Yunlei, he will definitely like it, right?" Shen Jing asked excitedly, holding up a toy and fiddling with it.

"Boys will probably like it!" Lin Yiping replied with a smile.

"Then what should I bring for my godmother and godfather?" Shen Jing continued to ask with a smile.

Lin Yiping said helplessly: "Xiao Jing, we've bought enough. We're almost emptying the store!"

"Hehe, is there?" Shen Jing stuck out her tongue mischievously, then looked at the large and small bags that Lin Yiping was carrying, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "Hehe, I didn't notice at all, I've already bought so much!"

"Then let's go home first!" Lin Yiping smiled gently.

"Well, okay then!"

"Mom, we're back!" Shen Jing called Tao Huimin happily as soon as she entered the door.

"Jingjing, Xiaolin, you're back. Go wash your hands and come for dinner!" Tao Huimin greeted them warmly.

"Well, okay!" Shen Jing responded.

"Mom, Dad, we are planning to go back tomorrow!" Shen Jing said to Shen Changrong and Tao Huimin while chewing something.

"Why are you going back so soon? Why don't you stay a few more days?" Tao Huimin looked reluctant.

"Mom and Dad, I've been back for several days. There must not be enough stock in the store. I have to go back and make a new batch!" Shen Jing said seriously.

"You're a girl, you don't have to work so hard. Your father and I can support you for the rest of your life!" Tao Huimin grabbed Shen Jing's hand with heartache.

Shen Jing patted Tao Huimin's hand, her eyes firm: "Mom, I don't want to be under your and Dad's protection all the time. I want to do something and don't want to be surrounded by daily necessities all day long!"

"Jingjing, Dad supports you. In the new era, young people must be energetic!" Shen Changrong said after wiping his mouth.

"Dad, that's great!" Shen Jing smiled happily.

"But let me tell you in advance, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, be sure to tell your dad!" said Shen Changrong.

Shen Jing nodded: "Well, okay!"

Shen Changrong said to Lin Yiping with a serious expression: "Yiping, Jingjing is now in your care. You must not let her suffer any injustice!"

"Well, I know, absolutely not!" Lin Yiping replied quickly.

Early the next morning, Shen Jing and Lin Yiping boarded the train home with their bags.

"Jing girl, you're back. All the goods in the store are out of stock!" Old Li said hurriedly when he saw Shen Jing.

Shen Jing put down her luggage and asked, "Old Li, what's going on in the store?"

"Jing, as you said, I opened the store on the fifth day of the first lunar month to welcome the God of Wealth. Not long after we opened, a boss came and bought all the chili sauce in the store! He also said he wanted 100 bottles next month!" Old Li explained.

"Fuck, so generous!" Shen Jing was so shocked that she cursed!

"Ahem! I'll go pack my luggage!" Lin Yiping coughed softly.

Shen Jing glanced at him, adjusted her expression, and asked, "Old Li, is what you said true?"

"Of course it's true! The deposit has been paid!" As he said that, Old Li took out 250 yuan from his pocket!

Shen Jing's eyes lit up when she saw so much money: "That's great, I have to go home and make it, but I don't have enough chili at home!"

"What should we do then?" Old Li asked anxiously.

"Let's go to the village to pick some peppers!" said Lin Yiping.

After the land was divided in the village, most villagers planted various vegetables, including a lot of peppers.

"Based on the current market conditions, how much should we pay per pound of chili peppers?" Shen Jing asked Old Li.

"The chili peppers sold on the street are 20 cents per pound. We have to add a little more when we go to the village to buy them, otherwise people won't sell them to us!" Old Li said, counting on his fingers.

"Well, then we'll just go with 2.2 cents per pound!" Shen Jing calculated.

"Then our profits will be less!" Old Li felt a little distressed.

Shen Jing rolled her eyes and said, "That's easy. Let's order a batch of large glass bottles and launch 500 ml of hot sauce! Sell it for yuan!"

"Girl Jing, you've doubled the price. Will anyone buy it?" Old Li was a little confused.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li. We've doubled the quantity and changed the packaging to new ones! Just say we're launching a new product. Quantity is limited, so first come, first served!"

"Hehehe, why didn't I realize before that you have the potential to be a profiteer!" Old Li complained.

"Old Li, this is called business acumen!" Shen Jing rolled her eyes at Old Li.

"Xiao Jing, your luggage is packed. What were you talking about?" Lin Yiping walked out of the house.

Shen Jing saw Lin Yiping coming out, stepped forward, grabbed his arm and said, "We were just talking about changing the packaging. Yiping, do you know there is a glass factory in town? I want to order a batch of glass bottles!"

"I know one. It's right next to Erya's factory!" Lin Yiping replied with a smile.

"That's great. I can go and see how Erya is doing!" Shen Jing said happily.

"Jing, I'll be responsible for collecting the peppers. You can go to the glass factory with Yiping to customize the bottles!" Old Li interrupted.

"Okay! Let's do it!" Shen Jing looked relaxed, "By the way, Old Li, I brought you some gifts in the city this time, I hope you like them!" After saying that, Shen Jing turned and went into the house.

"Yiping, did your trip with Jing girl to meet her parents go smoothly this time?" Old Li asked Lin Yiping curiously.

"Well, I agreed!" Lin Yiping said calmly.

"Good boy, I knew you could do it!" Old Li immediately smiled happily, "By the way, you have to treat me to a drink when the time comes! Hahahaha!"

"What are you guys talking about? You look so happy." Shen Jing came out with a small package. "Old Li, these are the bell-bottom pants I bought for you in the city. They are the popular style this year. You will look very cool in them!"

"Cool? What does cool mean?" asked Old Li in confusion.

"It means it's extremely powerful and ranks number one!" Shen Jing explained randomly.

"Oh, so that's the case. I, an old man, will definitely try it! Hehe!" Old Li was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

"And this!" Shen Jing handed the radio to Old Li.

"Semiconductors? You actually gave me semiconductors!" Old Li exclaimed happily.

"Hehe, yes, you are so fashionable, you must match it with bell-bottom pants, a radio, and your 28-inch bicycle! That feeling is awesome!" Shen Jing said with a smile.

"Okay, okay! I like it!" Old Li happily picked up the radio and started to play with it! "Jing girl, how do you do this?"

"Let me teach you!" Shen Jing gestured and turned a few buttons on it. After a while, she received the China People's Broadcasting Station.

After Shen Jing taught Old Li how to use the radio, she went to the glass factory with Lin Yiping.

"Xiao Jing, it's getting late today. Let's go tomorrow morning. You should have a good rest!" Lin Yiping stopped her.

"Well, okay! Let's go tomorrow!"
