Reborn in 1990: My Family Store Leads to the Future

When we arrived at Luyuan for dinner, there wasn't much food left.

After all, everyone had been hungry all day, so who cared about table manners? Filling one's stomach was more important than anything else.

Fortunately, Grandpa Hu and Lu Yuan had reserved a separate portion for each other, so he was able to eat his meal comfortably for a while.

After finishing his meal, Grandpa Hu watched him rush off and felt a little worried.

"Won't you eat anything else?"

"There's no time."

Lu Yuan said with a smile.

The store on the first floor was still busy, but after the low point of less than two hours, the customers became more assertive.

Fortunately, everyone cooperated much better than before, and it actually looked much better than in the morning. At first, we were still a little flustered when facing the guests' requests.

But now they have started to divide the work among themselves, and they are doing it very well.

During a moment of free time, Lu Qin sighed.

"This is the first time I've realized that making money is also physically demanding."

"So many people are buying our products, how did you manage to get by before?"

Lu Yuan was already used to this, and felt that it would be a bit like seeing a ghost if there was a day when he didn't have to be busy.

"Take a good rest now. I estimate that the next few days will be similar. But after this is over, things will be a little different."

"I hope you'll pay more attention to it then."

Hearing this, Lu Qin was not discouraged at all. Instead, she was aroused and looked at the person in front of her with a smile, and continued to speak.

"I feel a great sense of accomplishment."

"Although I don't even have time to take a dump, all this busyness is making money, so I think the busier the better."

Suddenly someone said that, and everyone burst into laughter.

Hearing this, Lu Yuan found it somewhat interesting and felt relieved.

Lu Yuan told them to take a rest while he rode his tricycle to the market.

They could rest now, but they need to prepare the fruit for the next day because of the long distance.

"Boss Lu, I heard your business is exceptionally good today?"

Upon arriving at the fruit stand, Boss Zhao greeted everyone with a cheerful smile.

"Brother Zhao, don't talk nonsense. Business at my shop is so-so."

Lu Yuan and the other party became acquainted through business. When he heard the other party joking, he smiled and shook his head to indicate that it wasn't what he thought.

"I'm not exaggerating. I've heard a lot of people talking about your shop today. They say you have a lot of customers, and the lines are incredibly long."

"It's said that Xijing Road was blocked for two hours because of your shop."

"That's really an exaggeration."

Lu Yuan listened with a smile at first, but as he heard more, his expression began to panic.

They quickly refuted the rumors.

"There was just a slightly longer queue at my shop, nothing like what you described happened. If that were true, the police would have spoken to me already."

"That's all?"

Boss Zhao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and shook his head repeatedly.

"Boss Lu, you're being too modest. Let alone a line that's dozens of meters long, just having people queuing at all in this market is enough to make people envious. I can't even imagine it if you say that."

"It's really not as exaggerated as you think. I've seen this kind of thing all the time."

Lu Yuan said with a hint of helplessness.

If anyone else had said this, Boss Zhao would have just thought they were bragging. But since it was Lu Yuan who said it, the meaning was quite different.

The owner of Xiaolu got his name because his shop was so popular.

Boss Zhao was quite impressed; he never expected someone to be so humble. He shook his head repeatedly and said this.

"I was planning to check out your milk tea shop, since my wife has never tried it before."

"Brother Zhao, if you want a drink, why bother going? I'll just bring you a few when I come to buy more tomorrow. Tell me what you want to drink later."

Lu Yuan smiled and chatted with him.

Upon arriving at the store, two baskets of fruit, already prepared, were placed in the corner. Lu Yuan went over to confirm that it was what he wanted.

There are also several bags of watermelons.

"Boss Lu, you're too kind. You've ordered quite a lot. You're so busy with business every day. If possible, how about I deliver to you every day from now on? You can rest assured, I guarantee that these things are definitely the best."

Mr. Zhao chuckled and offered to deliver the goods himself, saying with a smile.

"If you need anything in the future, just let me know in advance. How about it? There are quite a few of these things, so I'll give them to you without interfering with your business."

"Brother Zhao is a straightforward person, so thank you very much, Brother Zhao."

Lu Yuan did not refuse when he heard this.

If the other party is willing to give it to me, then I can have a lot of time to do other things.

Moreover, even if the other party didn't make this request, he planned to say it to them anyway.

Now that the other party has said so, he has nothing to say and naturally agrees.

To reiterate, business in Luyuan won't always be this good.

He won't just have a few shops under his management forever. When he has more shops in the future, he might have a deeper level of cooperation with the other party.

Actually, this isn't without its benefits for Boss Zhao.

Lu Yuan needs dozens or even hundreds of fruits every day, which adds up to more than a thousand yuan a month after deducting costs.

The key point is that this sum of money is stable and is needed almost every day, which is also extra income for Boss Zhao.

So when Lu Yuan heard Boss Zhao's suggestion, he simply agreed.

"Don't worry, I know where this store is. I'll deliver it to you personally next time."

"That's great, thank you very much, Brother Zhao."

Lu Yuan smiled and helped Fu Dao load the goods onto the truck, then drove them back.

The shop staff helped unload the goods.

When it was time to close the shop at night, Lu Yuan pulled a few people down to sit and start counting the money in their hands.

There were six metal boxes in total. Lu Yuan had specially found a few more, but it still wasn't enough.

The group placed the money on the table and began counting it together.

It took almost half an hour to count all the money.

The final number startled Lu Yuan.

"Over 40,000? I can't believe I made that much money in one day?"

Hu Lili looked at the final number on the table with an expression of admiration, even though she knew Lu Yuan made a lot of money.

But when she saw the number, she still looked surprised.

Lu Yuan took out a few red envelopes and placed them on the table.
