Once he thought of it, Yan Fei went to Old Ma’s family, told them he would pay them 200 yuan for the first month, and then see how things go.

Then he ran to Uncle Ming, asked him to find out how much it would cost to dig a well, and to calculate how much it would altogether cost to build a water tower and dig a well.

After a rough calculation, Yan Fei felt that his money was sufficient.

When he went to Uncle Baoguo, he only asked for the price of digging a well.

When Uncle Baoguo heard that he wanted to dig a well, he scolded him for spending money recklessly.

Unable to stop him, Uncle Baoguo gave him a piece of information.

His classmate Yang Qian’s father works at the county water pump factory.

Yan Fei could buy a cheaper pump from him.

So Yan Fei finally went to school.

He found Yang Qian, but before he could speak, the bell for the last class of the afternoon rang.

These students were uncontrollable.

They only had one class a day and they felt extremely uneasy.

As soon as school was out, they ran off quickly.

Yan Fei pulled Yang Qian aside and asked him to inquire about the water pump when he got home.

At dinner, Yan Fei promised his grandfather that he would get up early to go to school the next day, and then went to soak dinosaur bone wine.

Soon after, when his grandfather was almost asleep, Yan Fei went to the Vegetable Garden Island and began to bundle radish leaves.

If he didn’t sell them soon, they would grow too large and be difficult to sell.

Anyway, he would go early in the morning and return at noon,

After he finished bundling, he checked the time, ate some meat, didn’t sleep, and sneaked out to the riverside.

He transformed into a Pterosaur and flew around the area, checking for any nocturnal activity.

Seeing nothing, he turned around and headed for the city.

Because he had something to do, Yan Fei didn’t want to cause trouble, so he went to the wet market where the old lady had suggested when he had bought bones last time.

To conduct his business without interruption, he got to the management office of the market before dawn.

It was easy to find, just past the gate, with its name written in big characters on the door.

It was still early, and the person on duty inside hadn’t even gotten up yet!

When Yan Fei asked how much the management fee was, a man in his forties opened the window from inside and said impatiently, “All the stalls in the market are occupied.

If you want to sell, you’ll have to do it outside.

There’s no management fee, just make sure you don’t block the entrance.”

Yan Fei nodded, thanked him, and was about to leave when he was called back: “What are you planning to sell?”

When he heard it was radish leaves, the man was a little surprised.

“Radishes are everywhere now, but radish leaves are rare!

Give me two bundles as a bribe, we’ll call it the management fee, and you can set up a stall outside my door!”

Although he was asking for a bribe, it didn’t sound the same coming from his mouth.

When he asked for two bundles of vegetables as a management fee, Yan Fei thought it was a good idea and agreed.

When Yan Fei came over with a cart with a broken wheel, gave the man two bundles of radish leaves, and started waiting for customers at the door.

The man from the management office couldn’t sleep either.

When he came out to brush his teeth, he saw Yan Fei and asked him, “How are you going to sell these?”

“Three yuan for one bundle, five yuan for two bundles!” Yan Fei decided to go with the same prices as for sweet potato leaves.

If someone complained that they were too expensive later, he could lower the price.

“What?

Are you selling retail or wholesale?” The man was a little surprised.

“What?

Is it too expensive?

How about two yuan a bundle, what do you think?” Yan Fei noticed his surprise and immediately started to lower the price.

“No, keep your price.

Wait for me, I’ll be right over.” The man ran off a short distance with his toothbrush in hand, and soon brought someone back with him.

From a distance, he shouted at Yan Fei, “Bring it over here.

This is my brother.

Don’t worry, he won’t cheat you.

You two negotiate!”

“Are your radish leaves three yuan for one bundle and five yuan for two?” The man who was brought over looked like he was also in his forties and definitely a relative of the management office guy.

They looked alike.

“Yes, how many do you want?” Yan Fei didn’t really care.

To be honest, he didn’t think these things were worth that much.

It was just that city folks had too much money and were a bit silly.

Who in the countryside would buy this stuff?

“Then you bring it over, let’s count how many bundles there are and calculate the cost.

I’ll take them all.”

“Deal!” Yan Fei was efficient.

They were just two people and he wasn’t afraid they wouldn’t pay.

The worst-case scenario was that he wouldn’t sell.

Once Yan Fei finished counting, the buyer didn’t even bother to recount, he just started counting the money.

As he did so, he said: “I won’t scam you.

Your bundles are too big.

One of yours can make one and a half of mine, and I can still sell them at your price.

The key is, I’m the only one who has it, so I can sell something unique in the market.

It’ll make me look good.”

Just as the man was feeling proud, the market manager interrupted: “Laoer, stop showing off.

Young man, will you have more of this in the future?”

“Right right right, will you have more in the future?” The man who bought the radish leaves was suddenly deflated, mentally cursing himself for talking too much.

He had already disclosed the price, and the vendor would probably deny having more.

“Yes, do you want more in the future?”

“Yes, I’ll take whatever amount you have!” The formerly hopeless vegetable vendor immediately looked delighted when he heard Yan Fei’s words, but then his face turned into a bitter gourd again, “So, what price will you sell at in the future?”

Yan Fei thought for a while.

“If you want more, I will sell it to you by the pound since you have to divide it anyway.

You can weigh my two bundles now to see how much they weigh, and then we’ll stick to around this price in the future.”

He thought that if he came to sell vegetables every day, it would be quite troublesome.

Plus, after what happened at the central market, he found the two brothers—one vegetable vendor and one market manager—to be decent people.

He had already said two yuan per bundle, but they were still willing to pay the initial price, which was really nice.

When the younger brother vegetable vendor heard Yan Fei’s proposal, he was overjoyed.

He took out a scale and weighed the bundles a few times in front of Yan Fei.

Each bundle weighed about four or five catties.

After the two of them discussed, they decided to average the weight, finalizing a price of one yuan per catty.

One yuan per catty for vegetables was already sky-high, at that time meat sometimes couldn’t even sell for five yuan.

After leaving the wet market, dawn was just breaking.

Yan Feigh had thought that after selling the vegetables today, he would have to take a bus home since it would be daytime.

But within a short while, he made over two hundred yuan.

However, he considered that the vegetable vendor would also make money.

On the flipside, setting up a stall could earn him over a hundred yuan!

No wonder people say that making missiles is not as profitable as selling tea eggs, or being a surgeon is not as profitable as being a barber.

This business truly is profitable.

Actually, there were still plenty of watermelons on Vegetable Garden Island, but Yan Fei had already eaten a lot.

The remaining ones were kept for consumption on the island, so they weren’t sold.

He took his cart, sprinted to an isolated spot, returned the cart to Vegetable Garden Island, transformed into a Pterosaur, and rushed back to Sancha River Town under the dawn sky.

Morning study session wasn’t even over yet!

After hanging around for a while, Yan Fei checked the time and pretended he had just come back after school to the cow farm.

When he got back, he saw Ma Chao had already arrived and was helping his grandfather feed the cows.

There was rice made by his grandfather in the pot, and just after eating, he was washing dishes when Lin Baoguo rushed in.

The first thing he said when he walked in the door upset Yan Fei: “Xiao Fei, did you skip school again?”

“Who said I didn’t go?

Even Grandpa knows I went early in the morning and just came back,” Yan Fei confidently retorted.

“Haha, keep making up stories!

Your school just held a big meeting, a school opening ceremony, and the students were only just dismissed when I came by.

You’re washing dishes now, did you fly back?” Lin Baoguo laughed, exposing his lie.

“Damn it!” Yan Fei couldn’t help but blurting out an expletive.

He had never seen such bad luck.

Every time something good happened, something bad followed immediately.

Last time, he went to Cow Breeding Island and ended up turning into a crappy little crocodile; he had just successfully sold some vegetables and immediately had his lie exposed when he came home.

Looking at his busy grandfather not far away, Yan Fei pleaded in a low voice: “Uncle Baoguo, could you keep this a secret for me?

I don’t want Grandpa to get upset, I don’t know what I’d do.”

Lin Baoguo was exasperated: “You do care about your grandpa after all!

If you knew it would upset people, why didn’t you go to school?

Forget it, I won’t lecture you.

I asked for you.

To drill a well, it’s fifteen yuan per meter including the pump.

You can just bring the pump and everything will be taken care of.

Ask your Uncle Ming what price he was quoted, and see which company is more suitable.

We can discuss it later.”

Yan Fei nodded.

Lin Baoguo was in a rush.

After saying hello to Yan Fei’s grandfather, he had to go back to work.

He could conveniently give Yan Fei a ride and make sure he went to school properly this time.

Yan Fei didn’t care, he had to go to school anyway to find Yang Qian and ask if he had discussed the pump issue with his father at home.
