I both sell goods for hire and sell goods for sale. Many people saw that I was young and felt sorry for me, so they bought and supported me.

After finishing 12th grade, I rented my own house to build a clothing stall to sell clothes. It's called renting a house, but I only dare to rent a small stall of a few square meters in someone's store to sell. From then on, I became my own boss and did business for myself.
