The aunties were especially enthusiastic when they saw Su Xiaoxiao.
"Xiaoxiao, could you help your aunt get one of those flashlights you got last ti?"
"Xiaoxiao, my face has been rough from the wind and sun lately. I want to buy two bottles of Snowflake Cream. Could you help get two bottles?"
"Su Family girl, I want that stainless steel cup you got last ti. Could you help get one?"
"I want a stainless steel cup and also a flashlight..."
Lately, Su Xiaoxiao has been helping the local community buy quite a few things, and her reputation has gradually spread.
For many people, the departnt stores in the city have more variety, but it’s not practical to make a trip there, as it costs transportation fees, and sotis it’s not certain you can get the items you want to buy.
It’s much better to find Su Xiaoxiao for purchasing on their behalf.
Not only do they avoid long trips, but they can get everything they want.
Sotis, with luck, she can even co across so discounted items with minor defects.
Su Xiaoxiao has already gotten used to helping everyone buy things daily because it’s a profitable opportunity for her.
Whenever she helps with purchasing, she gets a one-to-one cash rebate, which is absolutely delightful.
Moreover, she has a small storage space, where she can put away the purchased items and then pretend to take them out when she’s almost ho, making it effortless.
Recently, the first thing she does when she gets ho is to help the community with their purchases.
Fearing she might get overwheld, everyone spontaneously organized and entrusted Mr. Wang, the village teacher, to record and compile the purchase list before passing it on to Su Xiaoxiao.
She hardly has to exert any effort, making it all a kind of easy profit.
Soon, Mr. Wang handed her the recorded purchase list.
Su Xiaoxiao glanced at it and suddenly rembered sothing.
A few days ago, the boss who had previously collected mugwort contacted her, wanting to purchase another batch of wild mugwort, as much as possible.
With just her family, the most they could collect would be a hundred pounds, and they’d be exhausted.
She thought of mobilizing the village aunties to help, so she could just earn the markup.
With this in mind, she cleared her throat and spoke up: "Aunties, a friend recently asked to help collect wild mugwort. Does anyone want to join?"
Everyone was registering and about to leave. Upon hearing this, they stopped in their tracks.
They couldn’t earn much work points anyways, so being able to do sothing else to increase their inco would be wonderful.
Wild mugwort is practically everywhere, and it’s quite easy to collect, just a matter of convenience for them.
"Xiaoxiao, how much is this mugwort per pound?"
Aunt Wang next door was sowhat tempted and couldn’t help but ask.
Her husband injured his foot and couldn’t work.
The family’s work points were all dependent on her, and even if she worked tirelessly, the food distributed probably wouldn’t be enough to feed her family.
Su Xiaoxiao heard and extended three fingers.
Aunt Wang asked in amazent, "Three cents a pound?"
Considering this stuff is everywhere, it’s practically a zero-cost business, so three cents isn’t bad.
She was about to speak up and register when Su Xiaoxiao said, "Not three cents a pound, three dis a pound, but the mugwort needs to be dried before being delivered. I only accept dried mugwort."
"What? Three dis? This wild grass is worth three dis?"
"Oh my, isn’t this like a pie falling from the sky? Count in!"
"Su Family girl, also count my wife in."
Aunt Wang hurriedly spoke: "Xiaoxiao, count in too. I’ll start looking for mugwort tomorrow."
All of a sudden, everyone raised their hands eagerly, afraid they’d miss out on the chance.
Su Xiaoxiao was almost surrounded by the crowd to the point of feeling nauseous, so she quickly shouted, "Everyone, don’t rush, co register one by one. There’s no limit to this mugwort, the more the better."
As she spoke, she cleared her throat again and said, "But I don’t accept just anything; it must be dried thoroughly."
Once they heard this, the crowd temporarily quieted down.
Everyone obediently lined up to register.
As they were registering thodically, a sharp, mocking voice suddenly ca from the side.
"You all believe anything she says? Maybe it’s a scam. That wild mugwort is everywhere. If it were really worth that much, soone would have collected it by now."
Hearing the voice, everyone turned their heads to see Zhang Guifang looking on with disdain.
A few people started to waver after hearing her.
Zhang Guifang was nursing dissatisfaction from the morning, and now she’d found an opportunity.
"The Su Family is so poor, how could they share such a profitable opportunity with others?"
Zhang Guifang continued.
Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t be bothered to respond to her, and she raised her voice, "I’m not forcing anyone. Those who want to register can co over; those who don’t, it’s okay. But it’ll be clean transactions: cash for goods, money and items clear."
"Anyway, this is a one-ti profitable chance. Those who are unsure can leave now. Whether you participate doesn’t affect at all."
Upon hearing this, a few people who were hesitating imdiately pushed forward, eager to register, afraid of missing out on such a great opportunity.
Su Family girl’s right; this doesn’t benefit her much, and she’s willing to help them make money—it’s a wonderful thing.
Even if it were a scam, they can just refuse to deliver the goods without getting paid, so there’s no real loss to them.
Zhang Guifang, seeing no one paying her any attention, turned away in a huff.
Once everyone had registered and left, Su Xiaoxiao put away the list and went inside.
As soon as she entered, she was t with two pairs of bright eyes.
Su Jianwu blinked and looked at her, "Third sister, we want to join in on this money-making opportunity too."
Su Jianwen: "Third sister, we did this once before. We’re more experienced than they are. Please let us register too."
After all, they had done it once before, so this ti they were quite proficient.
Su Xiaoxiao pressed her temples; last ti, no one was available, so she had temporarily drafted her brothers.
Now with help, she obviously didn’t want her little brothers wasting their ti.
Thinking of this, she flicked each on the forehead: "Focus on your studies, don’t just think about making money. Making money is an adult’s business; you two should just focus on studying well."
Su Jianwu looked aggrieved: "Third sister, do you not love us anymore?"
"How could that be?"
Su Xiaoxiao jokingly rolled up her sleeves and said, "If you two keep not focusing on your studies, I’ll show my love by giving you an ’education of love’."
