The Fat Wife of the 1980s Awakens

Xu Xiufang calmly pointed at the TV and gave a surprising answer: "Fifty yuan for one TV. I will cover all repair costs within three years, and I won't charge you any extra fees."

Her guarantee is like a reassurance, because the electrical appliances she handles are unlikely to have problems within three years, unless the damage is caused by the user's improper operation.

Even after the warranty period, considering the rapid development of the times and the rapid update and iteration of electronic products, the prices may change every year and become increasingly affordable.

Hearing this, the man froze in his place for a moment, forgetting to chew the half-eaten watermelon in his hand. "Fifty dollars, and three years of repair service?"

He could hardly believe his ears. In the city, even if he spent three or four hundred dollars to buy a brand new product, he might not be able to enjoy such a good thing.

"What would I gain by lying to you? The other two have already been reserved. I see that you came here because of Director Chen's relationship, so I'm giving you the chance to choose. You can choose from three, and I'll give you a flashlight as a gift."

As soon as Xu Xiufang finished speaking, the people around her couldn't help but look at her differently.

At this moment, Xu Xiufang no longer looked like an ordinary country woman, but rather a strong woman with the generosity and wisdom of an urban business person.

Xu Xiaohua and Li Guifang's eyes were as big as copper bells. They exchanged nervous and curious glances with each other, and then tacitly stood on tiptoe and quietly slipped to the shade on the side.

They watched with bated breath, concentrating on how Xu Xiufang used her unique skills to miraculously sell the pile of seemingly insignificant second-hand items she had collected from all over the place for a price far beyond her expectations.

The slightly hesitant man frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of doubt and uneasiness.

"These have all been used by other people. Will...will they bring any bad luck?" His voice was small, but it was particularly clear in the quiet afternoon.

Obviously, he had a great struggle in his heart about buying these second-hand items. The uncertainty was like a tiny ant, gnawing at his determination bit by bit.

In response, a look of unexpected surprise flashed across Xu Xiufang's face.

In this era, people's acceptance of second-hand goods is far less than in later generations. This prejudice and taboo was beyond her expectations.

Xu Xiaohua and Li Guifang, who were standing nearby, also felt increasingly nervous.

Thinking about the fact that they have to spend a lot of energy on these "potentially" unsaleable old items, they have also spent the hundreds of dollars that the whole family has worked hard to save. This amount of money is enough to support the family's food and clothing for several months.

Xu Xiaohua couldn't help but feel a surge of regret in her heart, and secretly blamed herself for not stopping her sister from this seemingly unreliable business.

In contrast, Li Guifang's heart was filled with a deeper level of self-blame.

She believes she was invited to take part in this "adventure" because Xu Xiufang wanted to fulfill her previous promise to help her improve her life.

Indeed, she made some profit from this, but the money came so easily that she didn't even have the courage to spend it.

In her opinion, if Xu Xiufang changed her mind one day, or the business suffered losses, she must return the money immediately to avoid any unnecessary disputes.

She regarded the assistance during this period as just repaying a favor.

However, is Xu Xiufang an ordinary person?

She has a quick mind and can always find a way to deal with it even when faced with a completely unfamiliar era.

She just raised a confident smile and began to weave a convincing narrative.

"I understand your concerns. The previous owner of this TV was a small leader with outstanding work ability and remarkable achievements. He was eventually promoted to a national model and directly promoted to deputy factory director. His income almost caught up with that of the factory director."

At this point, she pursed her lips deliberately, as if she was expressing deep emotion, "So, when money comes too easily, people's hearts begin to change. You see, once people have money, these once precious objects become less rare."

When the man heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up with a strange light, as if in his eyes, this was no longer just a TV, but a door to wealth and good luck.

He imagined that if he brought this "mascot" home and wiped it carefully every day, he would be able to borrow its good luck. Not only would he be able to replace the TV after three years, but he might even be able to get a bigger and more luxurious color TV in the near future.

"This is it, I won't hesitate anymore!" The man pointed firmly at the TV recommended by Xu Xiufang.

At this moment, Xu Xiufang's heart was already blossoming with joy. Even she herself was a little surprised at the ingenious use of this ancient oriental mysterious power.

Xu Xiaohua and Li Guifang, who were watching all this, were so shocked that they were almost speechless.

Their previous unnecessary worries and those slight doubts about Xu Xiufang's abilities seemed so redundant at this moment.

With just a few words and without any hesitation, she not only sold the TV at a high price, but also recovered all the costs almost overnight. The two of them had to admire her skills very much.

Li Guifang secretly decided in her heart that she must cut some pork tonight and cook a delicious braised pork by herself to celebrate this unexpected harvest.

This money is well spent and you can eat it with peace of mind.

As the brand new fifty-yuan bill that the man handed over landed firmly in Xu Xiufang's hands, before she even asked for help in promoting the product, the man took the initiative to say, "I will certainly help you promote the product when we get back to the factory. The products you have here are both affordable and you can find treasures here. It's really a great bargain."

Xu Xiufang took over the conversation quickly, and put a small flashlight into the man's pocket, saying with a smile: "That's great. I'll have to mention it to Anping someday. The workers in their factory are frugal and simple. Everyone deserves respect."

Her words undoubtedly planted a seed of friendship in the man's heart.

If Chen Anping hadn't run around and lobbied with all his might, how could this group of people have easily known about this place hidden in a remote corner.

Their arrival was obviously not just due to the superficial reason of being mobilized, but more because they saw the actual benefits that might be contained therein.

Just like saying a few nice words to someone you know can achieve results much faster than working hard for decades in obscurity.

"Oh, I'm just a team leader in the assembly workshop, in charge of the third team. There's really nothing worth mentioning." The man grinned, revealing a row of dazzling white teeth. There seemed to be a bit of unspoken complacency hidden in that smile.

His attitude was almost exaggerated, as if he was about to reveal his ID number in the next second, but he still insisted that there was nothing to say.
