Then, without waiting for a reply, Li Yong pulled Li Lei and said, “Alright, let’s go home. We’ve got our money back, as for the rest, we’ll be more generous and not bother with them.”

Under the gazes of the crowd and the hatred of the Liang family members, the Li family members left with 600 Yuan.

When they reached the entrance of the village, Li Yong finally reacted, “Aiya, how could I forget about this?”

Li Yong was carrying Li Xu. She quickly asked, “What is it?”

“Didn’t my brother bring some things to their house yesterday? We should have learned from that bespectacled person before we left. We should have taken the things too.” The more Li Yong thought about it, the more annoyed he became, “In the past, the money my brother sent them definitely couldn’t be returned, so I didn’t even say anything, but those things...”

Li Xu listened and said somewhat helplessly, “Alright, it’s already good enough to get back the betrothal gift money. If it wasn’t for your master who happened to meet...”

Halfway through her words, Li Xu looked at Zhang Kun with a strange look, “Where did you find that somewhat fat man later?”

How could it be such a coincidence?

Zhang Kun smiled embarrassedly, “I heard from their neighbors that there was a man with the surname Wang. He lived in Li Hua Village and did some small business in the city. I went to Li Hua Village to ask, but I didn’t expect to find him. Xiao Wang happened to be at home, so I told him that I was Liang Yufang’s neighbor. Something happened to her family.”

“And then he followed you here?” Li Yong asked in surprise.

Zhang Kun nodded, “Yes, he followed me here. Before he came, he even went into the house to take a stack of money. He’s an honest man!”

“Tch, this Liang Yufang is courting death!”

This Xiao Wang and his brother were such good people! The other women couldn’t ask for more, but she actually wasted them like this!

It would be best if she couldn’t get married in the future!

“Our two villages are so close, and she also knows where our greenhouse is. What if she comes to do something bad?” Liu Guihua was a little worried.

“They dare? I’ll resign tomorrow and come back to help you look after them. If they dare to come, I’ll break their legs,” Li Yong said through gritted teeth.

Even so, the worry on Liu Guihua’s face didn’t disappear.

It was almost 11 o’clock when they got home. The whole family was hungry after a long morning.

After dinner, Li Yong, Zhang Kun, and Li Xu planned to go back with their three children.

Before they left, Li zhiming told Li Yong, “Tell the boss about your resignation. Also, ask the restaurant if they want eggplant and cucumbers. We can provide them for a long time in the future!”

When Li Yong heard this, he smiled helplessly, “Of course not, this restaurant is going to close down soon. Why do we need so many vegetables?”

Li zhiming nodded, “Ask around, what if they do? It’s best if we can find some places that need vegetables for a long time. Otherwise, with our large quantity, I’m afraid we won’t be able to sell them!”

“Uncle, you don’t have to worry about this. There will definitely be sales, especially for vegetables that are out of season. The market is very big. In my opinion, Yong Zi, if you resign, don’t go home for now. Go around, go to the county and the city to see if there are places that need vegetables for a long term!” Zhang Kun suggested.

Li Zhiming’s eyes lit up, “That’s a good idea!”

Li Yong scratched his head, “That works too!”

The few of them brought the children back to the city. Li Lei stayed behind to help the family farm for the time being.

He had just returned. Although he had some money in his hands, Li Lei still hadn’t figured out what he was going to do!

Moreover, they hadn’t seen each other for so many years. He wasn’t in a hurry to find a job. He wanted to stay at home and accompany his parents!

Li Zhiming and Liu Guihua were also happy for him to stay at home!

His marriage with Liang Yufang ended, but Xiao Lei couldn’t wait any longer. He had to hurry up and go on blind dates at home. He had to get married before the new year! So they would be able to have a grandson next year!

...

Back in the city, Zhang Kun followed Li Xu Home, while Li Yong went straight back to his dormitory.

Listening to his father counting the money, he couldn’t wait to quit his job and go back home to farm.

As long as he could earn money, anything was fine!

He was already 26 years old this year, and he didn’t have much time left.

The dormitory was at the back of the restaurant. Li Yong put down his things and went straight to the front.

Their restaurant took turns to rest, so the boss was always there.

When Li Yong went there, it was more than four o’clock. Logically speaking, they should have started preparing the dishes by now.

But when he went there, the kitchen was quiet.

When he went in, he saw that everyone was sitting there, all of them looking sad.

...

Zhang Kun stayed at home with the children until more than six o’clock. After they finished eating together, he left.

After Zhang Kun left, Li Xu brought Ji Yuanyuan to the store.

The store hadn’t opened for two days, so it was deserted inside.

The mother and daughter brought out all the vegetables in the space.

The warehouse was full. This time, the warehouse in the space was completely empty!

Fortunately, the crops in the field could be collected in two or three days.

“Mom, why don’t we take Grandpa and Grandma’s vegetables and put them in the space? We can keep them and sell them slowly,” Ji Yuanyuan suggested to Li Xu.

“In that case, we can give Grandpa and the others more money. We can also sell the vegetables.”

Hearing Ji Yuanyuan’s words, Li Xu’s eyes lit up.

There had been too many things in the past few days. She had not thought of this.

There were so many vegetables at home. If they sold them to vegetable vendors, restaurants, or supermarkets, the price would definitely be lower.

She estimated that she could only sell them for about 30 cents, but the price of cucumbers and eggplant was about 60 cents.

...

That money was all earned by the middleman!

If she bought them herself, she could give her parents a price of 40 cents. They could also earn more money.

As for her side, her business was getting better and better. Yuanyuan’s space was only so big, and the supply was already somewhat strained.

Soon, the supply might be cut off, and she would have to go out and look for supplies.

Not only was it a waste of time, but the quality might not even be that good!

“In that case, we have to come up with an excuse!” Li Xu had already begun to think of a way.

Or should she say that she had a friend who wanted it, and then hire a car to directly go and get the dishes at home?

Just as Li Xu was letting her imagination run wild, Ji Yuan shook her hand, “Mom, should we give our store a name? When the time comes, we can open a branch. As long as we put up this sign, everyone will know that it’s our store. The vegetables are especially delicious!”

Li Xu might not have the concept of a brand yet, but Ji Yuanyuan already had one.

After putting up the sign, it was best to register a trademark at the industry and Commerce Bureau first. Otherwise, if someone were to use it, it would be making a wedding dress for others.

Li Xu looked at Ji Yuanyuan’s face in surprise, “Why do you have so many ideas in your little head?”

...

Ji Yuanyuan chuckled and changed the topic, “Then, Mom, what do you think we should name it?”

What should we call it? This is a difficult problem for Li Xu!
