Chapter 37: 036: Good wine needs no bush_i

Translator: 549690339

Ni Yang was away for only five days, but she has already brought a considerable amount of foot traffic to the morning market.

With her good looks and deliciously made Pickled Vegetable Noodles, there were even people who came specifically to try her Pickled Fish Noodles.

This validated an old saying.

“Good wine needs no bush.”

Even those who had been doing business for more than a decade were outperformed by the young girl.

The more they thought about it, the more ashamed they felt.

“Look at how she sways her hips. What a flirt! I can’t tell if she’s here to sell noodles or to sell flesh!” a mother and daughter pair selling Buns exclaimed indignantly, casting hostile glances in Ni Yang’s direction.

Selling flesh.

This was an insinuation that Ni Yang was using her looks to attract customers.

The mother’s name was Sun Chunxiang and her daughter’s Zhu Yonghong.

Zhu Yonghong watched Ni Yang busily serving customers, feeling a sourness welling up inside her.

Ni Yang, who looked even younger than her, was not only attractive but also very business savvy. In just a few days she had taken all their business away!

While Ni Yang’s stand buzzed like a bustling marketplace, her own sat silent and deserted. Zhu Yonghong was overwhelmed with frustration.

Before Ni Yang arrived, their Buns were the best-selling, and out of everyone on the street, she was known for her striking features and was affectionately called the ‘Dumplings Beauty’.

Now, Ni Yang not only stole her business but also her honor.

‘Noodle Beauty’ will surely emerge soon! Zhu Yonghong thought bitterly.

No.

She absolutely cannot let this happen. She would not let anyone take what’s hers.

Sun Chunxiang looked disdainfully at Ni Yang, “This kind of business, which depends on selling flesh, won’t last long. We will just wait until she cries.” “You’re right,” Zhu Yonghong responded, narrowing her eyes, she added in a soft voice, “Who knows if someone will find something filthy in her noodles one day?”

Hearing the implication in her daughter’s words, Sun Chunxiang looked at Zhu Yonghong in surprise, “Honghong?”

Zhu Yonghong folded her arms, smiling, “Don’t worry, Mum. I know my limits.” Zhu Yonghong was a street expert, she knew many bad guys in society through selling buns.

If she really wanted to do something, it would be easy peasy.

Although this period was marked by a strict crackdown on crime, there were still many who dared to take risks.

By the time Ni Yang sold out all of her 500 bowls of noodles, it was already half past ten in the morning.

Even though it was late, there were still many people who hadn’t eaten, waiting in line.

Ni Yang wished she could sell more noodles each day, but she had other things to do. Besides, her body could not handle much more, she was, after all, only seventeen.

Transporting nearly two hundred kilograms of soup from the outskirts to the city every day was already the limit of what her physique could manage.

Today she sold over five hundred and sixty bowls of noodles, making a total of 168.3 yuan.

If she could sell over five hundred bowls a day, then she would make 5040 yuan a month.

After deducting expenses and daily overheads, she could make around 4800 yuan.

With this pace, she could rent a shop space in two months.

4800 yuan might be considered a common monthly wage in later generations, but in this era, it was considered a huge amount of money. After all, a worker’s salary was only tens of yuan a month at this time.

However, the reputation for private enterprise was not great during this period, which is why most families were unwilling to start businesses.

It’s for this reason that many people who ventured into business in the 1980s eventually became billionaires.

Start with small money, then make big money.

After tidying up the table and stove, Ni Yang moved all her stuff to the neighboring shop.

Usually, Ni Yang came around eight o’clock and Liu Dongliang would always be waiting at the door on time, but today due to her delay, Liu Dongliang was nowhere to be found.

After arranging the tables and chairs, Ni Yang called out habitually, “Uncle Liu, are you in?”

After putting down the stuff, it was necessary to greet the shop’s owner.

Shortly, the footsteps inside the house could be heard.

It must be Liu Dongliang about to make his appearance. Without lifting her head, Ni Yang declared, “Uncle Liu, I’ve put the table and chairs away. If there’s nothing else, I’ll leave first.”

“Um… my father left for some errands.” A strange male voice sounded in her ear.

His voice was as gentle as jade, a stark contrast to Liu Dongliang’s coarse voice.

Upon hearing this, Ni Yang looked up in surprise. Standing in front of her was a teenager about seventeen or eighteen years old. He was tall, dressed in the most popular plaid shirt, and was wearing top-quality pants. In the parlance of later generations, he was indeed a “handsome young man”.

During their eye contact, Liu Wei’s face turned slightly red and he broke into a nervous sweat.

People of this era were truly innocent like this.

Ni Yang withdrew her gaze indifferently and smiled, “Since Uncle Liu isn’t here, could you please tell him that Ni Yang stopped by? He knows me.”

Liu Wei nodded in response, “Sure.” After a pause, he added, “My name is Liu Wei, Liu as in Liu Bei, and Wei as in greatness.”

Ni Yang returned the gesture politely with a smile, “Nice to meet you. I have things to take care of, so I’m heading home now.” With that, she got on her bicycle and left.

The bicycle was large and had mo big iron buckets attached at the back. Despite her slender figure perched atop the bicycle, she exuded an air of unyielding beauty. Indeed, when a person is attractive, they make everything around them beautiful.

Watching Ni Yang’s figure gradually disappear into the distance, Liu Wei let out a huge sigh of relief.

It was strange.

He had never been so nervous in the presence of a young girl.

Even the belle of his class seemed ordinary to him, but Ni Yang was different…

This girl, whom he had only met twice, had left a deep impression on his heart.

Unfortunately, she had already dropped out of school.

In the future, he was going to university to do great things…

A girl who didn’t even graduate from junior high school was no different from an illiterate. He couldn’t possibly introduce such a girl to others.

Remembering this, Liu Wei jolted back to reality, mentally slapping himself. What was he thinking!

Today, Ni Yang bought another 60 kilograms of vegetables and twenty fish.

Since it was summer, she had to ensure the taste of her Pickled Cabbage Fish Soup noodles, so she needed fresh live fish. Dead fish were absolutely unacceptable.

Moreover, dead fish weren’t good for health.

Doing business must be in good conscience. Only then can it last.

When she got home, Ni Yang washed the vegetables and prepared them for pickling. After a quick meal, she made her way up the mountain with her bamboo basket.

The main reason for her trip to the mountain was to find herbal medicines for her mother Ni Cuihua. She had checked at the pharmacy before. The herbal medicines she needed were too expensive! Also, many herbs were not available for private sale, so she had to go up the mountain herself to dig for them.

The mountains of this era had not yet been exploited, so the mountains were filled with treasures..
