"You could give it a try," Xu Nian’an suggested.
However, Ji Shuqin had beco even more cautious than before, saying, "I need to take another look, see if these radios can be sold."
Xu Nian’an said, Is this a case of ’once bitten, twice shy’?
From Xu Nian’an’s experience, as long as there was a profit, he felt it was still feasible.
Having eaten his fill, Xu Nianhua, contentedly rubbing his belly, although standing all day made his legs ache and his throat hoarse, still felt exceptionally happy. Without having calculated the total earnings, he could sense that he hadn’t earned any less today.
Listening to Xu Nian’an and Ji Shuqin’s conversation, Xu Nianhua said, "Brother Shuqin, I think the radios are quite good. The markup isn’t small, and if we sell in bulk, selling ten a month would net us two hundred bucks."
"Exactly, that’s what I think too," Ji Shuqin agreed, nodding. And that’s just from selling them at seventy yuan each.
Ji Shuqin looked forward to tomorrow with a face full of anticipation, hoping the remaining two radios would sell quickly.
Night.
Xu Nianhua especially approached Ban Lin and Wei Hong to ask if they had any difficulties with their first day of work.
"Nianhua, I think it’s great. Once I morize all the prices, I can definitely do even better," Wei Hong cherished her current job, not only because of the high wages but also because Xu Nian’an and Xu Nianhua were exceptionally decent, kind, and generous siblings. Finding such good bosses was sothing Wei Hong cherished greatly.
Wei Hong resolved to morize the prices of all the items as soon as possible, striving to make her bosses worry-free in the future.
"It’s much easier than washing dishes at the restaurant, and it’s clean and not ssy," Ban Lin grinned, recalling her previous job washing dishes at a restaurant, which was dirty, cold, and greasy. Each ti she carried the clean dishes to the cupboard, she had to be extrely careful not to break any.
Breaking a dish ant not only a deduction from her wages but also a scolding from the boss.
But working here was much more relaxed and clean, and there was no scolding.
"Sister Wei Hong, Xiaolin, just work well then. I’ll co by on Saturdays and Sundays in the future. If there’s any issue, you can speak to my elder brother," Xu Nianhua said.
Having said this, she added, "I attend Beining University, so coming here is quite a distance."
"Don’t worry, we’ll definitely do our best," Wei Hong and Ban Lin said in unison.
"You better head back with Yining now. Yicheng is busy and can’t co to pick you up. You two girls have to be extra careful on your way," Xu Nian’an repeatedly instructed, as it had only gotten dark not long ago and he urged them to go back early.
"Elder brother, don’t worry. Ling Dong is also escorting us back; what could possibly happen?" No sooner had Xu Nianhua finished speaking than Pei Yining added beside her, "Rest assured, Elder Brother Xu, I will definitely protect Nianhua."
"Next ti I’m free, I’ll co to see you," Ji Shuqin waved to Xu Nianhua.
After Xu Nianhua left, Ji Shuqin looked eagerly at Xu Nian’an and said, "Nian’an, I’m free these next few days. I can co here every day, alright?"
"Okay, one yuan a day, how about that?" No sooner had Xu Nian’an spoken than Ji Shuqin glared at him and said, "Nian’an, I’m your cousin. Do you really see as so money-minded?"
Xu Nian’an pursed his lips in a smile.
Ji Shuqin glared at him and said, "I’ll just be here for a few days, just until the radios are sold."
Xu Nian’an nodded. He said, "I won’t be free to co to the store during the day, so if there’s anything, you can talk to Sister Wei Hong or Xiaolin."
