86 Official Stall


“Mom, Dad, what’s wrong?” Xia Wan asked, looking at them with worry.


Yan Han, afraid that Xia Wan would feel pressured, didn’t mention what they were worried about. “Be careful while you sell clothes today. The streets are a mess, so let Xia Feng go with you,” she said instead.


Xia Wan was very smart, and after listening to her mother, she immediately guessed that her parents must have been so worried about her that they didn’t sleep the entire night.


She nodded with a smile. “Sure, it’ll be even better if he comes along.”


At first, Xia Feng was feeling a little lonely because his brother and sister were going out. He wanted to join them, but he was still a little uncomfortable and didn’t want to tell his sister directly.


When he heard his mother asking him to go with them, a smile immediately broke out on his face. However, when he saw Xia Wan looking in his direction, he quickly pulled a long face and pretended to be reluctant. “Since mom is worried about you, I’m going with you.”


Xia Wan noticed Xia Feng’s arrogance and smiled lovingly. Her little brother was really cute.


After the three got off the bus, Xia Wan followed her memory and found a street in the county that specialized in selling clothes. Although that was what it was known for, all kinds of things were in fact traded there. Like them, patrons from the nearby villages would bring all kinds of produce from their own land to be sold, such as peanuts and edamame, to name a few.


Xia Feng looked around at the stalls and couldn’t help but ask Xia Wan, “Sis, what are we going to use to set up our stall?”


They came out in a hurry and didn’t think about buying anything.


Xia Wan smiled. “Don’t worry. I’ll get it done.”


She first chose a place that was very close to a shop. This shop was responsible for selling daily necessities that included but weren’t limited to spare light bulbs, tools like pliers and tweezers, and other miscellaneous household goods.


Xia Wan quickly bought a few iron racks that were usually used to hang clothes and a mirror that was about half the height of a person.


“Boss, how much for these?”


The owner of the stall was a man in his early thirties. When he smiled, his eyes squinted, giving off a very kind feeling. “That’ll be ten yuan in total. Girl, looking at you, are you going to set up a stall to sell clothes? ”


Xia Wan didn’t deny it and replied, “You have sharp eyes, boss. That’s right. I’ll bring the clothes over later.”


Then, she rolled her eyes and continued, “Boss, the clothes I chose are all pretty. If there are too many customers, they might get thirsty and tired. Boss, I see that you have quite a number of small stools and teacups. Why don’t you set one up next to our stall? The tea will be twenty cents a cup, and the stools are free to be seated on.


“When that happens, the customers sitting here might come to your shop. You carry a huge variety, and I don’t doubt there’ll always be something that the customers need.”


The boss was a little surprised. Before, he only thought that this little girl looked like a teenager, but she had already set up a stall. She was also very beautiful and instantly likable, so he asked her more questions. He didn’t expect the little girl to give him advice.


The boss thought for a while and felt that Xia Wan’s words made sense. “Okay, girl, I believe you. My name is Zhao Jin. If you don’t mind, you can call me Uncle Zhao in the future. I won’t say anything else. This shop has been open for more than ten years. It has been pa.s.sed down from generation to generation in my family, and the people around here are all old neighbors. In the future, you can set up your stall as long as you want. Whether the business is good or not, I’m willing to support you.”


Xia Wan originally wanted to give the boss a trick so that he could benefit from her stall. This way, the boss would let her continue to set up her stall here.


Now that she had achieved her goal and the boss was even more enthusiastic about her, Xia Wan became more confident in her future business.


She expressed her grat.i.tude and then went to the door to arrange the things. Xia Chen and Xia Feng also helped, and it only took the three of them 15 minutes to set everything up.


“You guys look after the stall. I’ll go get the clothes.”


There’s going to be a lot, ” Xia Chen said immediately. I’ll go with you. Let Xia Feng take care of the stall.”


Xia Wan didn’t refuse. The two of them rushed to Zhou Tian’s pharmacy. As the two streets were adjacent, it was only a ten-minute walk.
