WangXuemei continued, “Yangyang, if you really want to buy it, Auntie won’t haggle with you. My place is small, just 22 square meters, I don’t need the things inside, give me 10,000 yuan for everything.”
The store that Ni Yang bought was priced at 580 yuan per square meter.
22 square meters should be around 12,760 yuan by the normal price. For Ni Yang, this was equivalent to a pie falling from the sky. Importantly, the two stores were conjoined, which would be convenient for management later on.
Ni Yang nodded, “Okay, Aunt Wang, whenever you are free, let’s get the contract signed.”
“YangYang, are you really taking it?” Wang Xuemei was somewhat surprised.
She didn’t even negotiate the price!
Quite a few people had come to see Wang Xuemei’s shop, but they all complained that the price was too high. The shop was second-hand and they always offered a lower price, so it hadn’t been sold yet.
Some people even brought the price down to 5,000 yuan!
Ni Yang said with a smile: “Yes, I’m serious. If you don’t trust me, I can pay you a deposit first.”
WangXuemei, excited, grabbed Ni Yang’s hand, “Yangyang, you’re not joking with Auntie, are you?”
“Auntie, do I look like I’m joking?”
Wang Xuemei continued: “How about we sign the contract at noon tomorrow?”
“Okay,” Ni Yang nodded, “I’m fine, you and Uncle decide whenever it’s convenient for you.”
WangXuemei laughed and said, “Alright, then it’s settled!”
After this was settled, Wang Xuemei laughed and took Ni Yang next door.
Ni Yang said, “Auntie, please wait a moment.”
WangXuemei was initially stunned, then she nodded, “Alright.”
Ni Yang came out quickly, she was holding a glass bottle with brown liquid in it.
“Auntie, this is milk tea I made. Take it back and let Uncle try it.”
Wang Xuemei accepted with a smile, “Yangyang, then I won’t stand on ceremony.”
Ni Yang smiled slightly, “No need to be polite.”
When she got home, Ni Yang told Ni Cuihua about buying the shop.
Ni Cuihua expressed her concerns: “Yangyang, your noodle restaurant just opened, will you be able to handle it? And buying a shop must cost a lot of money, right?”
Now with just one shop, Ni Yang was leaving home around three o’clock every morning. If she opened another shop, wouldn’t Ni Yang be overwhelmed?
Ni Yang was only seventeen this year, and kids her age from ordinary families hadn’t worked this hard before.
Ni Cuihua was really worried about her.
Ni Yang said with a smile: “Don’t worry about the money. As for whether I can handle it, we can hire someone. There are so many people in the village, there has to be someone suitable.”
Hearing what Ni Yang said, Ni Cuihua was relieved, “If we’re hiring, I think Goudan’s mom and Xiaohua’s mom are pretty good.”
Ni Yang nodded, “Okay, after I pay the money tomorrow, and finalize the deal, I’ll go discuss it with Goudan’s mom and Xiaohua’s mom. Oh, Mom, how’s the aloe harvest these days?”
Ni Cuihua replied, “Now it’s winter, and the aloe doesn’t pup anymore.
Everyone went to the mountains to find it. Yesterday, they brought about twenty jin in total.”
“Okay, Mom, remember, no matter how much aloe they bring, we take it all.
Don’t worry about stockpiling.”
Ni Cuihua nodded her head.
These days, Ni Cuihua has learned how to make face wash and aloe gel, so she can pretty much handle all of the skincare product making, and Ni Yang doesn’t need to worry about it.
Ni Yang played with Little Ni Yun for a while, then went to the kitchen to cook.
First, she took out some beef bone that was bought yesterday, and half of an old mother chicken. After washing them and parboiling, she put them in the casserole to make soup.
With seasonings like green onions, ginger, and star anise added in, the aroma soon filled the air.
Ni Yang went to wash some greens, tofu skin, mushrooms, and meatballs.
While the soup was simmering, Ni Yang prepared three appetizers that were good for beauty and skin nourishment.
About an hour and a half later, the kitchen was filled with a fragrant aroma.
After the soup was done, Ni Yang started to blanch the rice noodles. She put the blanched rice noodles in a large bowl, layered cooked greens, tofu skin, meatballs and so on, then sprinkled some green onions, chopped garlic, and cilantro, and finally poured in the well-cooked soup.
If you like spicy food, you can add a spoonful of chili pepper.
A comforting bowl of rice noodles was ready.
The rice noodles were chewy and full of taste. When you bite into it, the delicious flavor of the beef bone soup and the chicken soup infused in the rice noodles is irresistible.
When Ni Yang eats rice noodles, she likes to roll them up with chopsticks. It’s quite satisfying to bite into a mouthful, and the taste of the rich and flavorful soup after finishing the noodles is unspeakably delicious.
Ni Yang squinted her eyes in satisfaction, showing a slight dimple on her cheek. Besides the busy times every day, this was probably her happiest time.
Ni Chenggui ate a large bowl and then scooped up half a bowl more, “Yangyang, these rice noodles taste really good!”
He absolutely loved it!
Ni Cuihua also had two bowls of it.
With Ni Yang’s beauty recipes, they were not afraid of gaining weight.
After dinner, Ni Chenggui did the dishes. Ni Cuihua put Ni Yun to bed, and Ni
Yang was sent to rest.
With nothing to do, Ni Yang went back to her room and counted the money she had earned these days.
She was originally planning to deposit this money in the bank tomorrow, but an unexpected opportunity fell into her lap.
Ni Yang counted and found out that her savings now totalled 15,896 yuan.
She had more than 4,000 yuan when the noodle restaurant opened, and the remaining 800 yuan was earned from selling skincare products these days. In other words, the turnover of the noodle restaurant has reached 10,000 yuan in just eight days!
But after paying for the shop tomorrow, her savings will be back to square one.
Once the milk tea shop opens, her turnover is likely to double! When the money keeps rolling in, her business can grow bigger and bigger.
Ni Yang sorted out 10,000 yuan and put it in her wallet.
The next morning, Ni Yang went out early.
At lunch break, Ni Yang went to the neighboring shop with the money.
Wang Xuemei’s husband, Zhao Sheng, like Wang Xuemei, is also an honest man. Seeing Ni Yang coming, he quickly began to make tea and take out sunflower seeds for her.
Ni Yang laughed and said, “Uncle, you don’t have to fuss.”
WangXuemei said, “Let him, just let him. We’ll chat while drinking tea in a moment. By the way, Yangyang, the milk tea you gave us last night was really tasty! Much better than the Big Pear Soda sold outside!”
