Chapter 168 There is a dog thief (10,000 words) 29138(2/4)
"Go away, don't disturb me while I'm cooking." Cheng Xiaolin pushed her elbow back, but Cao Shujie blocked it at the critical moment.
Cao Shujie complained about her: "Honey, I'm just going to kiss you, there's no need to be so harsh!"
"You're just making trouble for me." Cheng Xiaolin nagged him.
Cao Shujie wanted to say something more, but when he heard footsteps coming from outside, he let go of his arms and said, "You cook first, and I'll go upstairs to see Mengmeng."
"Go ahead. If she's not awake yet, wake her up and get ready for dinner." Cheng Xiaolin said.
As soon as he came out of the kitchen door, Cao Shujie saw his sister Cao Huifang coming over. The brother and sister said hello, and Cao Shujie went directly upstairs.
When she walked to the bedroom door, Mengmeng was already awake and lying on the bed playing alone.
Sometimes he rolls here, sometimes he rolls there, and sometimes he even lifts the quilt off his body.
Fortunately, the heating temperature in the room is very high, so she is not afraid of catching a cold.
"Mengmeng, are you awake?" Cao Shujie came in and asked her.
Mengmeng saw her father coming in, with a smile on her face: "Dad."
"Why didn't you call you mom?" Cao Shujie wondered.
In the past, Mengmeng couldn't find anyone when she woke up, so she usually cried to attract attention.
Who knew that Mengmeng said: "Mom is busy, I am playing by myself."
For a moment, Cao Shujie seemed to see Mengmeng in her teenage years. Although she was still very naughty, she was indeed sensible.
"Come here, daddy will get you dressed. Mommy has made the dumplings. Let's go down and eat the dumplings, okay." Cao Shujie picked up the clothes his wife put on the bedside and called Mengmeng over.
When he heard about eating dumplings, the little guy nodded happily and said, "Okay, Dad, I like eating dumplings the most."
After finishing speaking, Mengmeng stood up, ran towards her father, opened her hands and asked him to dress her.
At the same time, she didn't forget to ask: "Dad is buying fireworks today."
"Oh, yes, daddy will take you to the county town to buy fireworks later, okay?" Cao Shujie happily agreed.
He said: "Let's buy more."
I had a lot of fun last night and set off all the 10 fireworks I just bought.
He was still a little unsatisfied and felt that he had bought too little. He thought about going to the fireworks factory in the county today to buy more and set off enough in one go.
Mengmeng was very happy to hear her father agreeing so happily. She clapped her little hands and said, "Okay, Dad, I'll go with you."
"No problem, we'll leave after breakfast later," Cao Shujie said.
Mengmeng kept nodding her head after hearing this, and said she had to eat as soon as possible.
When eating, Mengmeng ate very quickly. Cheng Xiaolin also wondered what was going on with Mengmeng. It was completely inconsistent with her usual procrastination in eating.
She turned to look at her husband in confusion, and then heard her husband say: "I'll go buy fireworks after dinner later."
Cheng Xiaolin instantly understood that her daughter was also motivated to eat so enthusiastically.
However, Cao Shujie did not break his promise. After his wife, daughter and sister had finished eating, he drove them to buy fireworks.
Caojiazhuang is not far from Pingyuan County. There are several fireworks factories in the county. One of them, Jinsheng Fireworks, has a direct sales store in front of the factory. People who came to buy fireworks at this time blocked the door.
Seeing the excitement, Cheng Xiaolin secretly exclaimed: "This business is really good. It would be great if our fruits can sell so well when they mature."
"I don't think it's a big problem." Cao Shujie said.
Cao Huifang asked him: "Brother, in which month will the strawberries mature?"
"At the end of March or early April, what happened?" Cao Shujie wondered.
Then he heard his sister say: "I'm thinking that when your strawberries are ripe, we can come over and pick them."
"It would be best if it's in April, as it happens to be a three-day holiday for the Qingming Festival." Cao Huifang said this, and her calculation was quite good.
Cao Shujie didn't care either, he said: "Absolutely."
Strawberries grown in greenhouses are now on the market, but they are expensive and taste bad.
The open-air cultivation adopted by Cao Shujie has always provided sufficient nutrition, and he is confident that the taste will be good.
As for the price, Cao Shujie never planned to sell it cheaply from the beginning, otherwise he would not be able to get back the capital, let alone his investment being so large.
Mengmeng was sitting in the car, looking at the people coming in and out of the fireworks factory store opposite. She was very anxious, fearing that those people would buy all the fireworks in the store, so she said to her father several times: "Dad,
Hurry up and buy it, it’s sold out.”
What she means is that those people bought all the fireworks.
But Cao Shujie was not worried at all. He pointed to the factory next to him and said, "Don't worry, Mengmeng. The factory has been producing. Dad will buy you a lot of fireworks today, okay?"
Mengmeng was overjoyed after hearing this, this is the best.
She also stretched out her hands to gesture, and said in an exaggerated tone: "Dad, I want so many fireworks."
"Okay, let's fill the car with fireworks later." Cao Shujie teased his daughter.
After more than half an hour, they saw that there were fewer people entering the fireworks store, so they got out of the car and walked towards the fireworks store opposite.
Cao Huifang was also looking around at this time.
There are several factories that make fireworks throughout Pingyuan County, but this factory called "Jinsheng Fireworks" has the cheapest price, good quality, and an overall reputation.
Many wholesalers of fireworks come here to buy their goods.
There is a person who buys a lot of fireworks and will come here to buy them.
After entering the store, Cao Huifang looked at the various different styles of fireworks around her and felt dazzled instantly.
"Brother, there are so many fireworks here."
Mengmeng's eyes widened as she looked at all the different fireworks. She wanted them all.
"Dad, this, that, and this..."
Wherever Mengmeng goes, she points her finger, and she wants all the fireworks she can put her finger on.
When Cheng Xiaolin saw her daughter like this, she really wanted to slap her in the face to tell her to stop being so arrogant.
Mengmeng had no idea how dangerous the situation she had just faced was. She still chose Zhenghuan and walked almost halfway around the store, with her fingers scratching halfway. Even Cao Shujie had a headache after seeing it.
Does this mean he wants to buy the entire fireworks factory?
"Wife, look at what you want to buy, buy more, and have a good time." Cao Shujie said to his wife.
Cheng Xiaolin didn't know how to be polite. She said, "You look at Mengmeng first, and I'll go take a look."
While talking, Cheng Xiaolin started shopping from the other side.
There was a waiter in the store, and when she saw Cheng Xiaolin carefully looking at the introduction of various fireworks, she went over and asked about it, and then began to explain the effects of various fireworks to Cheng Xiaolin.
There was actually a short video of fireworks next to it. Cheng Xiaolin watched it very seriously at this time. After watching the video, she chose several types of fireworks and asked the waiter to bring her a few more.
Before she knew it, Cheng Xiaolin had selected seven or eight varieties.
On the other side, Cao Shujie held his daughter Mengmeng's hand and walked forward. His sister Cao Huifang followed behind and was also choosing fireworks.
This place is different from the big shopping malls. You don’t have to rush to finish your selection and leave. The prices here are also very cheap.
Cheng Xiaolin also found the type of fireworks she bought at the market. At that time, she thought there was a stall selling them for 16 yuan each, which was considered a bargain. But when she came here, she learned that the same type of fireworks cost just over 7 yuan.
One piece of money.
"Three times the profit, this money is really good." Cheng Xiaolin didn't know what to say.
She now fully understands the meaning of that sentence, buying is worse than selling!
People keep saying that they sell at a loss, that is, they keep their capital, but based on this price, they still make at least double the profit. How can this be justified?
At this moment, Cheng Xiaolin even had the idea of buying more fireworks in bulk and selling them back.
Anyway, no one cares about this now.
The more she thought about it, the more feasible it became. When Cheng Xiaolin saw her husband not far away, she ran directly to her husband and told him her thoughts without choosing any fireworks.
Who would have thought that after hearing this, Cao Shujie muttered to her: "Honey, there are so many profitable businesses, and you still want to do them all."
"Don't think about anything, just plant a good orchard and sell our fruits." Cao Shujie said to her.
At the end, he said: "You might as well take advantage of the bargain here and sell more fireworks!"
Cheng Xiaolin wanted to find some reasons to convince him, but finally gave up.
Her husband is right, take advantage of the cheap prices of fireworks here to buy more and enjoy them during the Chinese New Year.
Cheng Xiaolin is not afraid of the lack of fireworks, but is afraid that their car is too small to hold many fireworks.
I was muttering in my mouth, but before I could think of a good idea, I heard the waiter next to me say: "Beauty, if you buy more, we can deliver it to your home for free."
Cheng Xiaolin thought to herself that this service is really thoughtful!
When they came back from Pingyuan County, the trunk of the car and the passenger seat were full of fireworks.
Mengmeng looked at the fireworks, giggling all the way, and yelled: "I will throw the cannons myself."
"Okay, can I let you throw the cannon by yourself when you get home?" Cheng Xiaolin asked her.
