Chapter 106: Making Money
After Lan Xin finished looking at the scenery, she was thinking about the lands under the name of Lanjia Village. She found the direction and looked towards the foot of Shanqing Mountain according to her memory. After looking around for a while, she was finally able to confirm the place.
Looking from afar at the flat area at the foot of Sanqing Mountain, with lush vegetation and colorful flowers, it looks like a good place. Not far away there are a few tourists going up the mountain. You can see that if you want to go up the mountain from this angle, you will have to pass through that area.
Therefore, if we use this piece of land to open a shop or a hotel, there will definitely be no shortage of customers.
But it’s not enough to just look at it like this, you also have to go up and down the mountain to take a close look.
So Lan Xin called on several sisters-in-law to continue walking from the back mountain and go directly to Sanqing Mountain. Chen Baoni and others had no complaints. They also wanted to see the situation of Sanqing Mountain in person and think about whether they could make money there.
Coming out of the back mountain and onto Sanqing Mountain, walk along a dirt path, and after pushing aside the grass and bushes, you will see a stone path that was paved at an unknown time.
This stone path looked quite old and stretched far into the distance. Lan Xin and the others found the direction to go down the mountain and followed the path down.
Along the way, we met many people who came to climb the mountain. There were two young men and women who looked like a couple who were out for fun. There was also a group of people who were climbing while chatting. There were also many families, young and old, who came out to play together.
There were quite a few people going down the mountain, and many of them were shouting about being tired, thirsty, and hungry on the way. Unfortunately, their pockets were empty and they had nothing to eat, so they could only stride towards the foot of the mountain.
Seeing this scene, Chen Baoni and the others' eyes sparkled. They came up to Lan Xin and said, "With so many people crying out for food, we will definitely not lose money if we sell them food."
Lan Xin also nodded, "So I didn't lie to you, this really is a business opportunity. It will be too late if you delay any longer. The opportunity won't wait for anyone."
Chen Baoni and others nodded repeatedly, what Lan Xin said made sense!
Along the way, they also met Aunt Mo's son and daughter-in-law. They were carrying a bamboo basket filled with juicy cucumbers and tomatoes. When those who were crying out for thirst and hunger saw them, their eyes lit up and they immediately surrounded them.
"I want two cucumbers."
"I want five tomatoes!"
He just asked for a few things at a time without even asking the price.
Aunt Mo's sons and daughters-in-law were grinning from ear to ear. They immediately and skillfully handed over the cucumbers and tomatoes the customer needed, and then collected the money and gave the change.
Chen Baoni and a few others heard that two tomatoes cost one cent and a cucumber cost one cent and couldn't help but gasp. Are these prices rip-offs?
This thing couldn't be sold in the past, but it's so popular here even though it's so expensive.
When the tourists heard the prices announced by Aunt Mo's daughter-in-law, although they grumbled a few words, saying that the vegetable company of the supply and marketing cooperative only sold them for a few cents per pound, and why they were so expensive here, they did not put down the things in their hands after hearing the price reduction. They picked a few large ones that would not lose money, and paid for them promptly.
Aunt Mo's sons and daughters-in-law were no longer surprised by this routine. However, they became quite flustered when they saw Lan Xin and the others. However, there were still guests around them and they couldn't run away. They could only smile at them awkwardly.
"Lan Xin, Bao Ni, why did you come to Sanqing Mountain?"
They wailed in their hearts, it was over, they were discovered and their unique business would not last long.
Ever since Aunt Mo and the others told the Mo family about what happened in the morning during lunch, they knew that this way of making money could not be enjoyed by their family alone, but they did not expect it to come so soon.
In the afternoon, Lan Xin and her friends came to the mountain to check the situation.
Aunt Mo's daughter-in-law thought, never mind, Sanqing Mountain is so big anyway, and it's not just this area where things can be sold, and you can't stop feeling thirsty by just eating tomatoes and cucumbers all day.
When the time comes, everyone can discuss it carefully and decide who will set up the stall in where. People from the same village will not quarrel over this.
Originally, the two were worried that they would be held accountable by Lan Xin and others, asking why they didn't tell them that they could sell cucumbers and tomatoes in the mountains. However, Lan Xin just asked with a smile.
"How's business?"
"It's, it's pretty good." Aunt Mo's daughter-in-law said in confusion.
"Well, sell it well."
After saying that, Lan Xin took Chen Baoni and others down the mountain.
Aunt Mo's daughter-in-law was surprised and looked at the backs of Lan Xin and the others in disbelief. What was going on? They just left without asking any more questions?
There is nothing to ask about this. It is a business that can be seen through at a glance, but it is booming and there is no shortage of buyers.
This really made Chen Baoni and the others jealous, and they started calculating how many cucumbers and tomatoes they had at home that they could sell.
Unfortunately, the family didn't grow much, and there were many children, so the cucumbers and tomatoes were picked and eaten as soon as they grew. Even though they knew that they could make money by selling cucumbers and tomatoes in Sanqing Mountain, they couldn't sell many in a short period of time.
"Well, when we get back I'll tell the kids to drink more water so they don't ruin the tomatoes and cucumbers in the fields." After walking for a while, Chen Baoni said.
She felt bad, thinking how much money could they sell for after eating so many cucumbers and tomatoes.
Li Xia and Xu Rufang also nodded vigorously.
"Next year, I will plant a few more acres of cucumbers and tomatoes."
"Yes, plant all the vegetable plots."
Lan Xin was so amused that she couldn't help but interrupt her sisters-in-law's plans.
"My sisters-in-law, there is so much food and drink, there is no need to sell only cucumbers and tomatoes."
"Yes."
They were blinded by the money earned from selling cucumbers and tomatoes from Aunt Mo's family, and they just wanted to follow suit and sell these as there were plenty of food to eat.
But what good food should they sell?
Along the way, the sisters-in-law kept discussing everything from noodles, rice, dumplings, buns, pancakes, etc. This one was good, that one was good too, but they just didn't know what to choose.
Following the footsteps of the tourists, they soon reached the foot of the mountain.
It was getting late, and not many people were going up the mountain. Most of them were going down the mountain. After walking along the mountain road, the sun was still so strong above her head. Even though the shade of the trees was cool, Lan Xin still swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.
Chen Baoni raised her hand to wipe the sweat off her face and said, "It would be great if I could take some cucumbers and tomatoes with me."
Perhaps it was because I had just seen those bright red and green cucumbers and tomatoes that I became more and more thirsty the further I walked down the mountain, and the more I wanted to eat something sweet and thirst-quenching.
They walked down from halfway up the mountain and drank enough water at home before going out. However, these tourists who came here to play had to take at least an hour's drive before and after going up and down the mountain. It is conceivable how thirsty and tired they must be at this time.
But unfortunately, there was no food or drink nearby, and there were few fruit-bearing trees on the road. These people had to take another two-hour drive back, dragging their hungry and thirsty bodies.
