Chapter Eleven: Anwar Cosmetics

Ten kilograms of jade scraps only supported Shi Yi's practice for less than a minute and was declared destruction, leaving behind powder all over the ground. Shi Yi, who had just enjoyed the fun of cultivation, locked his eyes on the complete raw stone weighing about ten kilograms, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised...

"Hu..." Out of Shi Yi's expectations, this ten-kilogram rough stone actually supported one minute of cultivation, but the same weight was ten seconds more than the scraps. Shi Yi obviously felt that the spiritual energy absorbed from this complete rough stone seemed to be much purer than the scraps.

Feeling the weak reaction of true qi in the dantian, Shi Yi could only shake his head and smile bitterly. The ninety-five yuan was gone, but except for the comfort of spiritual energy pouring in during cultivation, the true qi in his body did not change significantly.

However, the gap between the scraps and the raw stones caught Shi Yi's attention. After sitting on the ground and thinking for a while, Shi Yi suddenly thought of a possibility: "Is this jade better than a broken one? So does it mean that the spiritual energy in the jade is also good or bad. Good jade provides more spiritual energy than ordinary jade, and it is purer?!"

If this is true, as long as Shi Yi has enough money, the time for cultivation will be compressed to the greatest extent!

A bright light flashed in Shi Yi's eyes, and he seemed to have found a shortcut to practice...

That night, Shi Yi simply ate and returned to his room, closed his eyes and entered the state of cultivation...

Early the next morning, with the sound of the door closing, Shi Yi also opened his eyes, let out a breath and got up from the bed. Today, there is still something to do.

"Brother, Li Weibo's cousin went to the hospital yesterday and seemed to have paid him the medicine fee..." In the entertainment city, a young man was reporting to the bald man.

"Yeah, I understand." The bald man nodded and said, "I don't need to pay attention to him in the future."

"Yes, brother!" The young man nodded and left the bald office lightly.

And the bald man was playing with his big brother in his hand, and a vicious look flashed through his eyes: "I want to see what you two want to do!"

Li Huizhu's store is in Wenzhou city, about twenty kilometers away from Shi Yi's home. After passing through several alleys, Shi Yi stopped a taxi and rushed towards Li Huizhu's cosmetics store.

In Shi Yi's impression, Li Huizhu did run a cosmetics store, but later in 1996, she had to close the store due to years of losses. Later, Li Huizhu opened a clothing store, shoe store, and jewelry store, but without exception, all ended in failure. In 2009, she left Wenzhou because she was burdened with huge debts. Shi Yi had not heard anything about her in the next decade.

Shi Yi still has some impression of himself, his third cousin. At least in his previous life, Li Huizhu helped her a lot.

"Just stop here." Shi Yi called to stop the taxi that was moving forward, and after giving the fare, he pushed the door out, stood on the side of the road for a while, and after confirming the direction, he raised his legs to walk towards an alley not far away.

Li Huizhu's store is not in the main street, but in the alley of this commercial street. Although the alley is much remote, there are still many pedestrians coming and going.

While walking, Shi Yi was thinking about what to say for a while. After walking in the alley for about dozens of seconds, Shi Yi saw Li Huizhu's store. Because it was still early, Li Huizhu was standing on the ladder, wiping the old sign, and her movements were very gentle.

"Cousin!" Shi Yi smiled slightly and walked up, walked around the ladder and appeared in Li Huizhu's sight, and said with a smile: "So diligent!"

"Hey, it's Ayi." When someone called me, Li Huizhu subconsciously looked down at her and happened to meet Shi Yi's slightly teasing look. She was stunned, then smiled and nodded: "Yes, if you don't have diligence, you will have no food to eat."

As he said that, Li Huizhu stepped down from the ladder, moved the ladder aside, and looked at Shi Yi and said, "Why are you free to come to the cousin's shop today? Don't you go to school?"

"Well, I feel a little uncomfortable, I'm asking for leave." Shi Yi nodded, stepped forward and took a hand, and said with a smile: "There is no time, so let's see you, cousin!"

"I haven't seen each other for a while, my mouth has become sweet." Li Huizhu chuckled, hung the rag in her hand on the ladder, then turned on the faucet and rushed to the rusher, patted Shi Yi on the shoulder and said, "Have you eaten? My cousin took you to have something delicious!"

"...I've eaten." Shi Yi smiled awkwardly, looking a little embarrassed. He was not here to eat freely.

"Then is there anything wrong with you coming here?" Li Huizhu smiled indifferently and asked in confusion: "I remember that I have never been to my place until now. Why did you have a whim today?"

"No, cousin, I'm here to discuss something with you." Shi Yi looked around and said, "Are you free?"

"If you have something to discuss with me?" Li Huizhu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, let's talk about it later."

"Tell me." When I entered the store, Li Huizhu poured Shi Yi a cup of boiling water, then sat down next to Shi Yi, and looked at Shi Yi with interest: "What's the matter?"

"This..." Shi Yi paused with a sip of boiling water and said, "Cousin, I heard from my cousin that there seems to be some problems in your store's business?"

"Big cousin?" Li Huizhu frowned: "What did Li Weibo say?"

Obviously, Li Huizhu is not interested in her cousin, and she can even be said to be a little disgusted.

"Cousin, don't get me wrong." Shi Yi quickly explained: "I went to ask my cousin. Besides, my cousin has stopped messing around, and now he has withdrawn!"

"He is not confused?" Li Huizhu's explanation of Shi Yi was ridiculous and said sarcastically: "If he is not confused, the world will be much more pure!"

"Okay, can we not mention him for now?" Shi Yi smiled bitterly, made up his expression, and said to Li Huizhu: "Cousin, I came here this time to ask you a few questions. Of course, if you don't want to, forget it."

"You ask, I will tell you what you know." Li Huizhu nodded slightly.

"I want to know..." Shi Yi thought for a moment: "Cousin, what is the monthly turnover in your store? What is the net profit?"

"What are you asking about this?" Li Huizhu looked at Shi Yi strangely, but answered: "The current monthly turnover of this store is about 2,000, and the gross profit is about 900. After deducting the store rent, the net profit is about 400 yuan."

"So little?" Shi Yi frowned.

"Do you think there are many?" Li Huizhu gave Shi Yi a blank look, "I'm pretty good. Several nearby stores have closed!"

"Then cousin, you still make this?" Shi Yi glanced at Li Huizhu's store. The store area should be about 30 square meters. There are three wooden shelves placed in the store, which are filled with some commonly used cosmetics. At the door, there is a counter. The layout of the entire store is very simple and monotonous.

"I believe this industry will make a profit!" Li Huizhu replied with a certain tone, but the next words were a little short of heroic breath: "However, I don't have enough funds and can't open the store at all. If I still maintain the current situation, I'm afraid..."

Li Huizhu could understand what she meant without saying Shi Yi. She nodded and thought for a while, looked up at Li Huizhu with a serious expression: "Cousin, can you tell me how much you have invested in this store?"

"You don't want to open a store, do you?" Li Huizhu was startled, hesitated for a moment and said, "I have been opening this store for more than two years. All the costs add up, which should be less than 9,000 and 10,000 yuan."

"Then cousin, do you have a good product purchase channel?" Shi Yi felt confident.

"I have been following this for a long time!" Li Huizhu nodded affirmatively: "Of course there is!"

"Okay." Shi Yi smiled on his face and said something to Li Huizhu that stunned her: "Cousin, I want to buy your store!"

"..." Li Huizhu looked at Shi Yi's serious expression in shock. After a long time, she waved her hand suddenly and patted Shi Yi's head, and cursed with a smile: "Little kid, come here for nothing, I'll start swiping your cousin, right?"

"No, cousin." Shi Yi never thought that Li Huizhu would react like this. Fortunately, she controlled it in time and let Li Huizhu pat her head smoothly. She smiled bitterly and rubbed the place she had photographed by Li Huizhu before. Shi Yi looked up and said, "I mean serious. I invested 20,000 yuan to buy your store, and at the same time invested 980,000 yuan to use the store operating funds to rename the store Anhua Cosmetics Store. In addition, cousin, please help me manage this store, and I will give you 20% of the shareholding. How about it?!"

"..." Shi Yi's words made Li Huizhu open her mouth wide, and she didn't know what to say...
