Returning to 84, hunting for wealth, one person feeding three families.

Early the next morning.

Ye Chen asked Tian Cong to borrow a tractor.

With three women, along with Tian Cong and Li Yan, he headed straight for the county town.

The tractor's trailer was loaded with a lot of processed fish balls.

Seeing himself with his family in tow, Ye Chen kept muttering to himself on the way.

"This time when I go to the county town, I need to buy a suitable means of transportation. After all, we're millionaires now; it's really not befitting our status to rely on our own two legs every day!"

Previously, Ye Chen's development focus was on Shuangshu Village, and he would only go to the county town once in a long while, so whether he had a means of transportation or not was not a problem.

But after the New Year, both Luo Ling's restaurant and Ye Chen's upcoming medicinal herb wholesale market were located in the county town.

If we have to travel back and forth frequently, it will be really inconvenient to borrow a tractor from someone!

"I heard there's a new kind of agricultural tricycle now, which is much more impressive than this hand-held tractor!"

"Let's buy the newest one. That way, it'll be convenient for anyone driving it into town!"

Qian Jiali made the suggestion, which immediately stirred up everyone's emotions!

In the entire Shuangshu Village, tractors are already extremely rare, and the so-called agricultural tricycles exist only in legend.

If Ye Chen could really buy one, he would be the coolest guy in the whole village when he got back!

They'll be incredibly popular then!

"Alright, let's sell all the fish balls today, and then we'll figure out how to get him a farm tricycle!"

Ye Chen immediately made the decision, and upon hearing this, the three women beside him beamed with even more joy.

What could be more exciting than seeing your man succeed?

……

morning.

Ye Chen led a group of people to the shops on Factory Street.

These shops have all been sublet now. Ye Chen took out his key and randomly opened a door.

They moved the table and chairs to the front of the door and unloaded the fish balls from the truck bed.

"Today you're the boss, and we're all working for you!"

"We'll do whatever you say. Whether the fish balls sell or not depends entirely on your skills."

Seeing everyone busy at work, Ye Chen immediately spoke to Luo Ling.

Luo Ling, full of confidence, immediately offered to make the arrangements.

"Sister Jiali, go to the backyard and see if there's a stove. If there is, go and make fish ball soup!"

"Xiaohui, could you find me a sign and a pen? I want to write some promotional slogans on it!"

Luo Ling's methodical approach to tasks aroused Qian Jiali's skepticism.

"We just had breakfast when we arrived, and now you're making fish ball soup again? What are you making?"

"Sister Jiali, just listen to me, you'll know how to use it in a bit!" Luo Ling teased.

Finally, at Ye Chen's request, Qian Jiali had no choice but to comply.

A moment later, Tian Xiaohui was the first to find a wooden board.

Luo Ling personally wrote the promotional slogan: Free samples, limited quantities!

Upon seeing such a slogan, Ye Chen's eyes lit up, and he already had a plan in mind.

Fish balls are generally much more expensive than meat, but they have a unique texture, and you can appreciate the difference once you try them!

If it were an ordinary person, they certainly wouldn't have the heart to let someone taste it for free, after all, it's hard-earned money!

But because people don't know the texture of fish balls, it actually affects sales in the end!

In business, it's all about giving and receiving!

With just this one move, Luo Lingguang demonstrated her talent for business, far surpassing her father Luo Guanzhong!

"It seems these fish balls are destined to sell out today!" Ye Chen muttered to himself. At Luo Ling's request, he took a winnowing basket used for drying medicinal herbs from the shop and poured the fish balls into it.

Tian Xiaohui held up a sign and walked through the streets and alleys, quickly attracting a lot of people!

Just then, Qian Jiali brought out the fish ball soup she had cooked, and Luo Ling immediately invited everyone to try it for free.

"This stuff is really good! How is it made? It tastes so much better than fish!"

"It's delicious, and most importantly, it's easy to carry around. It won't spoil even if it freezes when it gets cold back home. Although it's a bit pricey, I think it's worth it!"

"Give me two pounds of this stuff, so my family can try it when I get home!"

The "try before you buy" approach quickly proved effective, and with everyone discussing the product, someone finally made a purchase.

With one person taking the lead, other customers who were already interested followed suit, buying two pounds here and three pounds there.

In just two hours, the fish balls that Ye Chen and his team had made over two days were sold out!

"One pound of fish balls costs three yuan and fifty cents. We made a total of five hundred pounds of fish balls, and after tasting them, we sold them for a total of seventeen thousand yuan!"

"If we were selling fish, we probably wouldn't be able to get this price. Fish balls are definitely a good business. If we hire some people and expand the business, the daily profit could be substantial!"

Luo Ling, who resembled a typical business owner, counted the money and gave a summary.

Seeing this, Ye Chen finally acknowledged Luo Ling's abilities.

"Forget about selling fish balls. When you get back, you'll learn the trade from me. I'll teach you all my signature dishes!"

"After the New Year, let's open a restaurant right away, and you'll be the female manager. Then, our family will rely entirely on you to make money!" Ye Chen stepped forward to encourage him.

When business was mentioned, Luo Ling immediately became excited: "As long as you can come up with something good like fish balls, I guarantee this restaurant will be a success!"

"Not just in the county town, but eventually I'll open branches throughout the entire provincial capital, so everyone can see what I'm capable of!"

The Luo family's business acumen blossomed in Luo Ling, and her long-suppressed instincts finally came into play with Ye Chen's encouragement!

Luo Ling proved her abilities, and everyone was happy for her.

At this critical moment, Qian Jiali urged, "By the way, didn't we want to buy a farm tricycle?"

"It's almost noon, let's hurry up and grab a bite to eat before heading to the market!"

In the 80s, farm tricycles were considered expensive, costing four or five thousand yuan each, which was simply unaffordable for ordinary families!

In everyone's eyes, something so important naturally needs to be carefully selected.

Urged on like this, Ye Chen immediately decided to fill their stomachs first, and then take everyone to spend money!

"What should we eat for lunch today? I'll pay!"

As the proprietress, Luo Ling counted a stack of banknotes, waved her hand, and spoke in a rather cheerful manner.

Upon hearing this, everyone headed straight for the state-run restaurant!

But as soon as Ye Chen and his group entered, they immediately saw a familiar figure.

In the hall, Zhang Shaoyang picked up his wine glass, looking sullen, and drank it all in one gulp.

The moment she saw Ye Chen, her whole body trembled, and a hint of resentment burst forth in her originally sorrowful eyes!

"Ye Chen, what are you doing here?"
