My courtyard shelter

"How about opening a small supermarket?"

Xu Jingyi proposed again.

"Your mother and I have thought about opening a supermarket before, but small supermarkets have few channels for purchasing goods, and many daily necessities have stopped production now. It is better to open a store specializing in second-hand goods than a small supermarket!"

Xu Bin shook his head helplessly.

In the current environment, materials are in short supply, and more and more families are forced to live a low-desire life. The goods that can be sold in small supermarkets are extremely limited.

In order to survive, many small supermarkets will choose to sell chrysanthemum tea or install a public telephone to earn some phone bills.

Drinking water and communication are both rigid needs, and there is no worry about the market at all. The only disadvantage is that the competition is fierce and you can only earn some hard-earned money.

Xu Jingyi lowered her head and thought for a while. She didn't want her parents to work too hard. After thinking for a while, she finally came up with a good idea:

"Dad, Mom, doesn't grandpa have a second-hand electronic product recycling company? We can open a digital store and get the goods directly from grandpa."

"Digital store?"

"It's a store that sells computers, mobile phones, radios and other things. You can also sell accessories, such as data cables, batteries, etc. The profit should be okay!"

Tan Aifang's eyes lit up: "This is good, Dabin, let's open a digital store?"

"But... opening a digital store definitely requires a lot of capital. I don't think our family's savings are enough!"

Xu Bin was a little distressed. Originally, the family had hundreds of thousands of savings, but some time ago, he bought all the collections of his master in one go, and instantly spent most of his savings. .

Tan Aifang glared at her husband.

When you need money, you regret not having enough. What did you do before?

She tried to suggest:

"If it doesn't work, let's go back and borrow some money from our parents, and when we make money..."

Xu Jingyi interrupted quickly, "Mom, we don't need to borrow money from grandpa and grandma. I still have a gold bar in my hand. You can sell it!"

"No, no, the gold bar is your grandma's dowry. You can't touch it."

Tan Aifang immediately objected.

"Mom, things are dead, people are alive, and it's a waste to keep the gold bar. It's better to use it to do some business. If you feel sorry for grandma, at worst, we can buy the gold bar back when the digital store makes money."

"No means no, your dad and I haven't bought you any big things yet, how can we ask for your things in return?"

Tan Aifang remained unmoved.

Opening a store doesn't mean you can make money. What if you lose money? My husband is unreliable, and my daughter has finally saved a little money to keep in the bottom of the box, and it can't be wasted.

Besides, my parents-in-law don't need this little money at all. Although the big part belongs to my brother-in-law's family, they can't not even have a sip of soup, right?

Xu Bin winked at his wife.

Tan Aifang ignored him.

"Jingyi, you eat first, I'll talk to your mother."

After saying that, Xu Bin pulled his wife into the bedroom.

"What are you doing?" Tan Aifang struggled.

"Calm down first, we can't go back to borrow money." Xu Bin said straight to the point.

Tan Aifang sneered: "Why? Your face is more important than your daughter's happiness?"

"What are you thinking? I mean we can't lose the big picture for the small." Xu Bin explained.

"What do you mean by losing the big picture for the small? Explain clearly."

Tan Aifang finally regained some composure.

"Didn't I tell you before that Dad promised to help Jingyi prepare a wedding house? Borrowing money is a small matter. If you borrow money and lose the house, you will cry."

Tan Aifang frowned: "Not that serious, right? Isn't it just borrowing a few hundred thousand yuan? We are not not going to pay it back."

"If the store loses money, do you really plan to pay it back? Even if you want to pay it back, where can we find so much money?"

Xu Bin patiently persuaded.

"But if we don't borrow money, what if we lose our daughter's gold bars?"

"If we lose money, we lose it. Gold bars are nothing. The house is the big deal."

Tan Aifang was very entangled in her heart: "The house is still uncertain. The bakery owes so much money to the bank. It may go bankrupt at any time. We can't rely on this."

"Don't worry if it goes bankrupt. Don't we still have a house in Luyang? Add my collections, it's enough for my daughter to live a good life."

Xu Bin quickly comforted her.

It doesn't matter. When talking about those so-called "antiques", Tan Aifang was full of anger. It is more reliable to buy gold than these junk.

"Your things are not reliable at all. I think it's better not to come to this store, so as not to waste the last bit of family assets."

"What do you know? While we still have the conditions, we should make more money. Even if the business fails, don't we still have parents to cover the bottom? I tell you, the bakery business is good, and it will definitely not go bankrupt for a while."

Xu Bin tried his best to persuade.

He wanted to accumulate more capital by opening a store. Although the collection market is sluggish at the moment, there is a limit to how sluggish it is, and it is impossible to see cabbage prices.

Tan Aifang was somewhat persuaded, but she lacked confidence.

"Do you think this digital store can make money?"

"Of course it can. Electronic products are very popular now. A second-hand computer costs tens of thousands! We get the goods directly from Dad. We have more supply and lower cost than others. It would be strange if we don't make money."

Xu Bin became more and more excited as he spoke, as if a bright future was just around the corner.

"If it's so profitable, why doesn't Dad and his company do it themselves?"

"I heard from the third brother that Changming Company is now an electronic parts supplier. Repairing second-hand electronic products is just a sideline, not the main business."

"Can you really make money?"

Xu Bin nodded solemnly: "Really, if we manage it well, we might be able to make a lot of money. Maybe we can buy a house for our daughter by ourselves."

Tan Aifang was finally convinced.

...

Seeing her parents coming out of the bedroom, Xu Jingyi immediately asked with concern:

"Dad, Mom, have you discussed it?"

"We have discussed it." Xu Bin smiled and nodded, "The digital store looks good, your mom and I will choose the digital store."

"What about the gold bars?"

"Ahem, the gold bars are temporarily lent to you by your parents. When the family store makes money, we will buy you a heavier one." Xu Bin promised quickly.

Xu Jingyi breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that her parents were willing to accept the gold bars. She was really afraid that the two would have a conflict with their grandparents because of the loan, and it would be difficult to end it at that time.

"It doesn't matter whether it's gold or not. Although I'm an intern now, I also have a salary. I can support myself. You two don't have to worry about me."

Tan Aifang shook her head: "Your father and I only have you as a daughter. If we don't worry about you, who else can we worry about? When you get married and have children, we will help you take care of the children!"

"Mom, how old am I? You think too far ahead, right?"

Xu Jingyi couldn't help complaining.

"You are already 22 years old this year, not young anymore. You should pay more attention to what your grandma Wang said to you last time."

Tan Aifang nagging.

Last week, Xu's mother took her eldest granddaughter to visit Wang Xiujuan. The other party mentioned the blind date again. Xu's mother couldn't make the decision. After returning, she specially talked to her eldest daughter-in-law for an afternoon.
