Song Tan’s Chronicle

Chapter 59: 59. Consider renting a stall

Views:

After hearing this, the vegetable vendor became unhappy.

"What is illegal stall?"

"I buy my vegetables from vegetable gardens in the suburbs. How much money can I make from selling them back and forth? If I rent a stall, I will make less in a month than a street sweeper."

He didn't hide it.

In this market, except for the occasional vegetable sales by farmers in the surrounding suburbs, the rest are basically stalls like this. The vegetables sold may not be cheap, but they are fresh and often have discounts, which is why they are loved by the general public.

However, the vegetable vendor was unlucky. He did not catch up when the city was planning the stalls. In addition, the amount of vegetables he sold was not large, so it was not cost-effective to continue.

Now he is giving Song Tan some advice, it is really a good intention—

"It's quite suitable to set up a stall here occasionally. But you make a lot of money from selling vegetables, girl. I'm watching you from the side, and my eyes are red."

He spoke half-truths and his words were full of sourness.

Twenty yuan for a bunch, the account can be clearly calculated with just a second look. There is no cost for growing her own sweet clover, which means she makes a net profit of two to three thousand yuan a day.

It’s equivalent to a small stall running for a month or so.

Who wouldn’t be jealous after seeing this

The vegetable vendor dreams of getting rich every day!

"People don't have to do anything. Just file a report and law enforcement will come to investigate tomorrow."

As long as money is involved, there will be no peace, and the vegetable vendors know this very well.

Song Tan's expression also turned serious.

In fact, to be honest, she only sets up her stall for an hour or so each time. Half of the entire vegetable market does not have fixed stalls and it lasts for a whole morning, so it should not be a problem.

But this kind of thing is just like what the vegetable vendor said, if someone reports it, they must have found out the time and they will catch them every time.

Seeing that she was young, the vegetable vendor was afraid that she didn't know how to handle things. He then glanced at Qiao Qiao who was foolishly playing with bubbles, and then continued to instruct:

"Even if no one reports it, once the weather gets warmer, the city will conduct city inspections two or three times a year. Is it appropriate for you to park your pickup truck here?"

"Girl, ask around yourself."

There is no need to ask, city inspections are conducted every year, including in Ningcheng.

This time, Song Tan sincerely thanked him: "Thank you for the reminder!"

He turned around and stuffed another hundred yuan back into her pocket: "We've been neighbors for so long, why do you want more money? I'll definitely bring it to you tomorrow!"

He looked at the time again and called Qiao Qiao: "Let's go Qiao Qiao, go take some food to Auntie!"

The brother and sister drove off in their pickup truck. The vegetable vendor looked at the money in his hand and smiled:

I've been selling vegetables for so long, but I just realized today that our stalls are neighbors! This girl is really thick-skinned, she's a natural at doing business.

Business man Song Tan was still thinking about the stall while driving.

She went to work in Ningcheng right after graduation. Now she has transferred from the worker system to the agricultural system, and she doesn't know anyone there.

But it doesn’t matter!

By the time the car stopped at the famous Jinyuewan Wholesale Market in the city, Song Tan had successfully sent a message in the group -

[Dear customers, the owner is planning to rent a stall in the riverside market. If you know anyone, please introduce them to me! If you sign a contract, there will be a generous reward!]

She doesn't have any connections, but with so many people coming to buy groceries every day, she should be able to get some information.

Qiao Qiao was holding a small basket, staring at the large trucks in the wholesale market, and the various piles of fruits, exclaiming in amazement—

"It's so big here, so huge!"

Song Tan smiled and said, "Of course it is big, this is the largest wholesale market in our city!"

Song Tan's aunt Wu Fang and her husband and wife Zhang Hong have a store here, specializing in fruit wholesale.

Fruit wholesale is not an easy business. Getting up early and coming back late to collect goods, and moving and carrying them is hard work.

But my aunt and her husband are honest people. Although they didn't make as much money as others at the beginning, they have built up some reputation over the years and are living a pretty good life now.

Song Tan followed the address mentioned before and went there. Qiao Qiao followed behind him obediently. Looking at the style that was completely different from other buildings, she seemed much more excited.

"Sister, there are so many fruits!"

"Um."

"Can I eat here every day?"

"Um."

"Then can Qiao Qiao live here?"

"Well... no." Song Tan looked at him: "You have to pay to eat here, do you have money?"

Qiao Qiao was no longer stupid now, and looked at her eagerly: "I have... I have a salary!"

Song Tan counted on his fingers and showed him: "You dug the vegetable garden yesterday, fifty yuan. Today, I accompanied my sister to sell vegetables, fifty yuan."

"It's a hundred dollars in total. You need to take care of your three puppies, and buy yourself toys and Peppa Pig stickers. You also have to pay for snacks yourself - Qiao Qiao, it's not enough!"

Qiao Qiao wasn't worried: "I'll go back and dig a vegetable garden today! There will be more and more!"

This silly child.

Song Tan was helpless—it would be unreasonable not to coax her, right

"Okay, let's go back and plant some kimchi. You dig the vegetable garden and we'll plant it tonight."

Chinese cabbage and Chinese kale can be planted densely, so it’s a good idea to make use of the vegetable garden first.

As he was talking, the storefront of Dahong Fruit Wholesale appeared in front of him. A couple was carrying fruits down from a truck at the door.

"Auntie!" Song Tan called out, and without waiting for her response, he climbed onto the car directly: "What do you want to move? I'll help you!"

Qiao Qiao had already stood under the car skillfully.

The aunt was also short, but thinner than Wulan. She was wearing old clothes and had a look of surprise on her face: "Why is Tantan back? Go down quickly, the fruit is heavy, you can't carry it—"

My aunt was stuck in her words.

Because Song Tan in front of him casually handed over a basket of fruits. Qiao Qiao took it slackly and piled it aside.

The two of them work very skillfully together, and if you don’t know them, you would think they are professionals in this field!

Uncle Zhang Hong came out of the warehouse and was also shocked when he saw it: "Hey, you two, I don't need your help, come down quickly, I'll get you two oranges!"

Seeing that the two did not move, the eldest uncle became anxious and directly pulled out a grapefruit from the side: "Qiao Qiao, come here, uncle will break some fruit for you."

Qiao Qiao turned his head. He didn't like grapefruit because the grapefruit that Wulan bought in the village during the New Year was very sour:

"No, I have to work."

My sister said that making money is hard. He can earn 50 yuan today, so he can't be lazy.

Song Tan took a look at the goods in the truck - since it was early spring, people's desire to consume decreased, so there were no particularly expensive fruits in the truck. The cherries that were selling so well at the end of the year were nowhere to be seen. The only expensive ones were the domestically produced cherries.

She thought of the mountain land at home. This year, she had not taken care of it and only used the chestnut forest. But if she wanted to develop it in the long run, she couldn't waste it.

What fruits should I grow
