Chapter 28: Making Money
Chapter 28: Making Money
After returning to my room, I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
Song Miqiu's mind was filled with the image of that man who seemed indifferent to the life and death of others.
Only those who are desperate criminals or those in high positions of power can be so indifferent to human life.
Yu Huailin is clearly the latter!
In the eyes of these people, everyone is willing to make any sacrifice for their future, including their lives.
Now, on the surface, we are in a cooperative relationship, but in this man's heart, I am probably just someone who has some use value and whose secrets have been discovered by him.
In some ways, I am actually easier to manipulate than my other partners.
Because this man has a fatal secret about her.
"Sigh! Why did that fool buy such a person in the first place?"
Having been in this body for so long, this was the first time Song Miqiu had ever felt the urge to take Qiu Tianlei out and give him a good beating.
If he hadn't impulsively bought such a cheap man, how could he have brought so much trouble to his family?
"That's enough! Things have already come to this point, there's no use saying anything now. I should try to keep my distance from him in the future."
If Song Miqiu previously thought that the two of them could coexist peacefully, she would no longer be so naive.
After she figured it out, she slowly fell asleep.
When Qiu Tianlei woke up the next day, he could clearly feel that his mother's eyes were full of resentment as she looked at him.
I thought it was because of what happened yesterday, and I was about to go up and explain when I found that my mother suddenly turned her head away from me again!
This was the first time Qiu Tianlei had ever felt that his mother's thoughts were so hard to guess. Compared to her, it seemed that Tian Shi was actually quite easy to take care of.
Song Miqiu had no idea that her attitude had actually made Qiu Tianlei slowly realize something, and now she was thinking about something else.
What happened before showed her that although ordinary people can't fight against officials, if they have money, they can at least try to maneuver around the situation.
Their biggest problem right now, in the final analysis, is still that they don't have money!
"I'm going out this afternoon, you don't need to come with me this time."
Fearing that Qiu Tianlei would insist on coming with her, Song Miqiu told them in advance.
Qiu Tianlei wanted to say something, but his mother glared at him and stopped him.
"Does my word no longer carry any weight now?!"
Seeing that his own mother was angry, Qiu Tianlei didn't dare to say anything.
"I'm just worried about Mother, but I think there shouldn't be any major problems. Mother just needs to travel slowly on her way here and there."
When Qiu Xiaobai and Qiu Xiaoshuang heard that their grandmother was going out, they also begged to go with her.
In the past, they would never have dared to do such a thing, but now that Grandma has become better, they have naturally become bolder.
Although Song Miqiu liked the two little ones very much, she had important business to attend to in the afternoon.
"Grandma has something really important to do this time, so it's inconvenient for her to take you two little ones with her. How about next time? I promise you I'll definitely take you out next time, okay?"
Song Miqiu was much more patient with these two little ones.
Although the two little ones were a little disappointed, they also knew that they absolutely could not let their own thoughts delay other people's important business.
"We understand, Grandma! Please be careful!"
"Okay, okay, you two are both good boys."
After lunch, Song Miqiu watched as the two little ones fell asleep before taking her things and leaving.
However, once she got to the street, she didn't know which way to go.
"The location here is quite prime, but that's probably why most shops are unwilling to sublet, right?"
Since Song Miqiu wanted to do business, he naturally needed a shop.
The reason she came out this time was to try her luck and find a shop with a relatively good location and price.
Having chosen a direction, Song Miqiu strolled leisurely there.
Whether it was pure luck or something else, she actually found a shop with a "For Sale" sign!
Whether you buy or not, you should still go in and take a look.
Song Miqiu specially wore an outfit today that looked low-key, but was made of fairly good material.
She knew very well that if she wanted to rent a decent shop, she had to get the other party to be willing to talk to her first.
Sure enough, the person who wanted to transfer the property immediately smiled when he saw an elderly lady who was dressed in a low-key but looked extraordinary.
"Madam, are you looking to buy our shop?"
Song Miqiu showed no delight at these people's initiative to talk to her, as if she were already used to it.
Upon seeing this, the shop owner became even more convinced of his idea.
People of such status are generally quite generous.
However, they won't raise prices arbitrarily, because the larger the family, the more knowledgeable they are about these things.
Moreover, offending these people would not benefit them at all.
It would be better to give a fair price, or even a slightly lower one, so that at least we can say hello when we meet again.
Businessmen are all very shrewd, so they naturally know how to treat different people.
Song Miqiu grasped this point precisely because of it, which led to the current situation.
"Your shop looks pretty good. What prices should I set?"
"How about... eight hundred taels? There's nothing wrong with this shop. It's just that we have some family matters to attend to, so we have to sell it. Eight hundred taels naturally includes everything here. If you want it, we can reduce the price by another twenty taels."
Seeing that the shopkeeper clearly wanted to befriend them, Song Miqiu almost nodded in agreement.
However, even if it were only eighty taels, let alone eight hundred taels, it would have almost wiped out their savings.
But naturally, she couldn't reveal this.
Nodding, Song Miqiu looked around and finally said, "The location is indeed quite good. If there are no other suitable ones, I will come back and buy it before dark."
The shopkeeper understood that the old lady probably wanted to compare prices at different stores.
However, he wasn't afraid, because he was the only one on this street that was up for sale!
After seeing Song Miqiu off, the shopkeeper waited with a relaxed expression.
What he didn't know was that Song Miqiu had no chance of returning before nightfall!
"What a pity! If the price allowed, this shop would definitely be the best choice!"
For the first time, Song Miqiu felt powerless.
Wandering aimlessly along the road, Song Miqiu was attracted by a fragrant aroma. Turning her head, she saw a pastry shop next to her, and an idea flashed through her mind!
"Although we can't rent a shop, we should be able to make some modern desserts and set up a stall here. That should be quite effective, right?"
The people here don't have many entertainment options, so pastries have become their most common snacks.
Without hesitation, Song Miqiu found a noodle shop, bought some flour and other necessities, spent part of the reward money, and then went home.
