Upon hearing the sudden thunder, both Li Jinwen and Lin Xiaoxiao were momentarily stunned.

What’s happening,

Is it really… going to rain?

Could it be a mistake?

This kind of weather, how can it possibly rain?

Just a moment ago the sky was clear with scattered stars!

“Haha!”

Lin Mo snapped his fingers, laughing heartily, “Wife, what did you just say? Your husband didn’t hear you clearly!”

“Uh… that…,” Li Jinwen was at a loss for words.

Lin Xiaoxiao stared with big excited eyes, exclaiming, “Daddy, I’m going! You! Are! My! Hero!”

“Enough with the flattery, hurry, hurry, hurry, we need to move fast. There’s a distance to the parking lot from here; we can’t miss the prime opportunity!”

Lin Mo, in a great mood, scooped up Lin Xiaoxiao in one arm and held Li Jinwen’s hand with the other, sprinting towards the concert hall’s exit.

Li Jinwen was also excited. An unexpected heavy rain could indeed mean a windfall!

The sky was growing darker,

and the vendors inside the venue started to curse under their breath as they began to pack up their tables and chairs.

By the time Lin Mo and his family ran to the parking lot, the pitter-patter of raindrops had started to fall.

Lin Mo opened the trunk, took out a raincoat for himself first, and then said, “You two wait for me in the car, and after we sell the raincoats, we’ll head back.”

Li Jinwen also put on a raincoat and said, “I’ll help you. Otherwise, with so many raincoats, how long will it take you to move them all?”

Lin Xiaoxiao was also excited and said, “I want to help too, I want to help!”

The weather had turned chilly, and the rain felt cold against their skin.

But at that moment, the mood of this family of three was excellent.

The feeling was similar to hitting the jackpot, making everyone as if they had been injected with adrenaline.

“Alright, then let’s all go into action as a family!”

Lin Mo moved boxes of raincoats out of the trunk, placed them on a small cart they had prepared earlier, and then took out the payment codes for Alipay and WeChat that he had printed previously, hanging them around his neck.

“Let’s go!”

Lin Mo pushed the cart, with Li Jinwen by his side, and Lin Xiaoxiao running ahead as the family of three headed for the nearest concert hall exit.

By the time they arrived at exit No. 2, a steady stream of people had begun to exit.

Most had come to the concert for the fun of it, and without any big stars performing, the downpour made many wish to leave.

Those with cars were better off; they ran straight to the parking lot upon leaving.

The other visitors, who planned on taking the subway, were less fortunate. After all, it was at least a kilometer’s walk to the subway station from there.

They couldn’t just stand there, either.

If the rain didn’t stop, they might miss the last train home, which would only complicate matters.

“Argh, I told you not to come to this concert. What’s there to see? There’s no idol, and you insisted on coming. Now look what happened?”

“Honey, I didn’t know it would rain!”

“Damn it, didn’t the weather forecast say it’d be clear? It’s still saying it’s clear! So why is it raining now?”

“What should we do now?”

“Honey, look at how heavy it’s raining. Why not skip going home and come to my place instead? My house cat can do backflips!”

While some were merry and others were miserable, the exit was bustling with activity.

Just as Lin Mo and his family unloaded the raincoats from the cart, a sharp-eyed woman quickly asked, “Excuse me, are you selling raincoats?”

Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: “Yes, pretty sister.”

“That’s wonderful!” the woman eagerly asked, “How much for one? I need one.”

Lin Mo pulled out a raincoat and handed it over, smiling, “Beautiful, thirty yuan each.”

“Thirty?” The woman paused, dissatisfied, “Isn’t this just a few yuan for a disposable raincoat? Why are you selling it so expensive?”

Lin Mo, still smiling, replied, “Take a look at the quality. The cost price is over twenty yuan, I need to make some profit, right?”

It sounded convincing, but there was no such quality.

Indeed, they were just disposable raincoats that cost a few yuan each,

But then, no businessman is without guile.

If you don’t make money when you can, why go to all the trouble of renting a car and buying tickets?

“Fine, fine, fine… it’s not easy at this late hour.”

The woman was about to say something else, but the man beside her quickly pulled out his phone, scanned the code, and paid in one go: “I’ve paid. Give me three raincoats!”

[Alipay incoming payment: 90 yuan.]

Lin Mo took out three raincoats and handed them over.

The woman also paid thirty yuan and took away one raincoat.

Soon,

the crowd around Lin Mo grew larger, and the sound of money being collected was incessant.

Some complained that he was selling them for too much,

others marveled and asked how the boss knew it would rain today.

Awesome!

Of course, there were also those who took a raincoat without paying, but there were too many people, and it was impossible to manage.

The 500 raincoats were sold out in less than half an hour, the scene nearly chaotic as a robbery.

Even the two raincoats that Lin Mo and Li Jinwen were wearing were bought by people.

By the time they got back into the car, all three were drenched.

They looked as if they had just been fished out of water.

However,

despite their bedraggled appearances, smiles of joy beamed on their faces.

Lin Mo took out the clean clothes he had prepared in advance and passed them to Li Jinwen in the front passenger seat, and to Lin Xiaoxiao in the back, and asked pridefully, “How about that, am I awesome or what, your husband, your father?”

Li Jinwen kissed him on the left cheek and nodded, saying, “My husband is the best!”

“I want a kiss too, I want a kiss too!”

Lin Xiaoxiao from the backseat leaned in and kissed Lin Mo on the right cheek, admiringly saying, “Dad, you’re the most, most, most awesome person I’ve ever seen! Nobody else knew it was going to rain, only you did!!!”

With their faces full of smiles, after changing into dry clothes and wiping themselves down, they drove home in the car.

The rain fell harder and harder, making it nearly impossible to see the road outside clearly.

But in the cramped car, Lin Mo felt more and more confident about his future.

Li Jinwen took out her mobile phone to check the day’s earnings, smiling and asking, “Husband, how much did you spend on the cost?”

Lin Mo thought for a moment and answered, “Less than 3000 yuan, I guess.”

Li Jinwen’s smile was so wide she almost couldn’t close her mouth, and with a raise of her eyebrow, she said, “Then guess how much money we made?”

Lin Mo guessed a number roughly: “Over 8000? Ten thousand?”

Just now, it was really too chaotic, with people from all directions wanting to buy raincoats.

Lin Mo felt that there must have been quite a few people who sneakily took raincoats without actually paying.

He couldn’t have stopped them in that situation.

Plus, if a dispute had arisen, it was possible all his raincoats would have been snapped up in the altercation.

Not to mention the rule of law society,

after some music festival ends, aren’t there heaps of luggage, tents, and phones lost?

To Lin Mo’s surprise, Li Jinwen showed him the number on the calculator app of her phone and said, “We’ve collected a total of 14730 yuan, subtract the 3000 yuan cost you mentioned, and we’ve made a profit of 11730 yuan in less than an hour!”

Oh?

Lin Mo was somewhat surprised; he had thought many would take advantage of the chaos.

The quality of young people today is pretty good!

“Haha, not bad at all, to have made so much!”

Lin Mo laughed.

Lin Xiaoxiao also said, “Over ten thousand, isn’t that like half a month’s income for dad, wow, we only sold for such a short time!!”

“Heh heh, girl, remember this, this is business, sell what people urgently need, and you can make a lot of money!”

“You need to study hard, with knowledge, you can seize such opportunities even better!”

Lin Mo took the opportunity to teach Lin Xiaoxiao a few lessons.

“Tsk, the last time I was this happy was counting gift money on our wedding night.”

Li Jinwen held the phone, taking a long time to recover from the surprise, muttering to herself, “If only we could make this much money every day, that would be great.”

“That way, we could soon have a home of our own in Rakshasa City.”

Buying a house in Rakshasa City,

was a necessity for them but also a dream so seemingly unobtainable.

Lin Mo didn’t even dare to imagine,

if that day really came,

what the scene would be like when he took his wife and child into their own home.

Just fantasizing about that moment made his eyes slightly redden.

Lin Mo gripped the steering wheel tightly, took a deep breath, and looked earnestly through the windshield at the fierce wind and rain outside, murmuring firmly, “Don’t worry, wife, fortune turns with time, that day won’t be far off!”
