910 Treating Him Well

Zhao Fei also wanted more, but Li Gui was doing the production alone and there was only so much she could do. Furthermore, she could not teach the technique to outsiders. He had no other choice but to wait patiently.

He did not want to be too greedy either. The more people were involved in this, the higher the risk. Zhao Fei had instructed these few people not to tell anyone about the matter. It would not be good if more people wanted to come and take a share as well. None of them was willing to let others take their money away. They did not even have enough to sell themselves, so how could they have any excess goods to share with others?

After being done for the day and putting away the money, Zhao Fei did not go home immediately. He chose to take a ride around to see which were the areas where crowds gathered and would be suitable for them to do business. He had been doing this for so many years. If not for the fact that he did not have nice things to sell like Li Gui did, he would have made a fortune long ago.

When it came to money, it was definitely the more the better. No one would ever think that they had enough money.

Li Gui, Zhang Wei and Zhang Chao arrived at the agreed location before 6 p.m. She thought that it was not good to always let Zhao Fei wait for her. The weather was freezing cold now and Zhao Fei had already been selling goods outside for a long time. He must be feeling very cold by now. She felt bad if he had to waste time waiting for her.

Coincidentally, Zhao Fei was returning from the other end of the alley at the same time. From afar, she could tell that Zhao Fei’s entire face was already all red from the cold. He was panting heavily and it was so cold that the breath he exhaled immediately turned into white smoke and disappeared into the air.

“Auntie, I’m here! Why did you come so early to wait for me? Come later next time. It’s such a freezing day. What if you catch a cold!” Zhao Fei said with a frown.

He did not have his mother around when he was young. After his mother gave birth to him, she ran off to live with another man and left him and his father behind. He was actually a little hostile towards women, but Li Gui was very nice to him and showed care and concern for him. Therefore, he also wanted to treat Li Gui well.

“What if I come late and you catch a cold!” Li Gui said.

“I’m young! I’m fine!” Zhao Fei pounded his chest and continued, “This is the money I earned today. Auntie, do a count and see if the amount is right.”

Li Gui simply put the money into her pocket and told Zhao Fei and the others to go home to get warmed up. She trusted Zhao Fei and was not worried at all.

Zhao Fei also did not stand on ceremony with Li Gui and immediately turned around to run home. He was also eager to get home! He still did not know how much he had earned today!

Li Gui was not idle at home during the day. She already finished making the popcorn that she was going to give Zhao Fei tomorrow. She made 30 pounds more than today! She would definitely earn more than today.

The first thing Li Gui and Zhao Fei did when they returned to their own homes was not to warm themselves by the fire, but to quickly count the money! In this aspect, the two of them thought alike.

Qiao Mei sat quietly by the heater to make tiger-headed shoes for the two babies. She had learned how to make them from the neighbors next door. The tiger-headed shoes she made for the children previously looked silly and dull and did not portray the liveliness of a tiger at all. Since she had nothing to do, she decided to try making two more pairs.

“Ah!!!” Li Gui suddenly jumped up from the stool and yelled as she held up the money in her hand. She danced around the house excitedly.

Qiao Mei was shocked by Li Gui’s actions, but she did not stop Li Gui. Who would not be happy after earning so much money? It was good that Li Gui felt so excited now. In the future, she would have to open a shop and do an even bigger business. It would be common to make tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even a few million dollars when the time came. At that time, she would view money differently and would no longer be as excited as she was today.

It was not a bad thing to have such happy moments.

“Oh my goodness! 210 dollars! Qiao Mei, quickly take a look and see if it’s true. This is 210 dollars! If I make the same amount of popcorn every day, won’t I be able to earn 210 dollars every day? Then I’ll have… 6,300 dollars a month! That’s a lot!” Li Gui said to Qiao Mei with her eyes wide open.

Even when they worked from early morning to late night originally, they did not earn so much money. After all, they could not go out if the weather was bad, and they had to run away if the city enforcement officers came to make arrests. Although they were earning money, their bodies and minds were exhausted at the end of each day.

It was so much better now. She could earn money easily and have a stable income!

“You’ll be able to buy this house from me after two months! I don’t think you need to worry about the children’s tuition fees at this rate. The money you make this month will be enough for these four children to spend for half a year,” Qiao Mei said.
