The General’s Wife of the Buddhist Family - Chapter 137
Chu Weilian has lived here for many years, and he knows a lot of people. He can find any kind of person Luo Jianjia wants to find.
Without exception, these people are not doing well at home.
Luo Jianjia wanted to cultivate his own staff, and some of them were not appropriate.
However, she didn’t return the inappropriate ones, instead let them go to the back kitchen to help, or stay in front to greet the guests.
Luo Jianjia has been living in Zhenbei City for a long time, knowing this very well, and without the help of Chu Weileng and Wang Qingjue, he quickly found a shop suitable for selling fried food.
Their plan was to open a new shop for spicy skewers, but they were too busy to open two at the same time, so they decided to open one first.
When this one gets on the right track, then drive the other one.
Because of previous experience, the shop was opened soon this time.
The plaque and the furnishings in the house are exactly the same as the previous one.
Luo Jianjia and others also told the guests about opening a new shop in the south of the city in the shop in the north.
The guests who came from far away from the south of the city were delighted.
Because they were about to open a new shop, Luo Jianjia and others went directly to the south of the city the next day.
The new shop just opened, and the business in the north shop was not as good as before. There were no more people in line at the door, and it was not full.
This also relieved the pressure in the spicy skewers shop.
However, when I went back in the evening to finish the account, the sum of the money in the shops on both sides did not decrease, and it also increased the income of nearly half a tael.
Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: “Today, your Aunt Li told me that the business of our shop is not as good as before. I am still worried about it. Fortunately, the combined income of both sides has increased.”
Old Chu laughed and said: “This is just opening, and there are many people in the south of the city who don’t know. When the shops here open for a long time, business will get better and better.”
Speaking of these things, everyone’s faces are full of smiles.
Originally, the shop in the north of the city gradually let the hired people do it. Boss Chu and Zhao went back to work. Now that the new shop opened, the two of them got busy again, counting the copper plates with joy every day.
In addition to the new shop, the vegetables in the ground also need to be taken care of. Boss Chu and the Zhao family also went around the ground when they were fine.
Although there is no suitable shop for spicy skewers, Luo Jianjia found a new shop to sell fresh fruits and vegetables.
Originally, I could go to the market stalls to sell vegetables, but it was too cold outside in winter, and most people couldn’t bear it, so she bought a shop and sold vegetables there.
Zhenbei City is cold, and vegetables are rarely seen in winter.
Even rich and wealthy people are reluctant to make a big greenhouse, and eat vegetables without saving. There is at most one vegetable on the table a day.
Because of Luo Jianjia’s use of the kang and new technology, the cost of vegetables is much cheaper than that of ordinary greenhouses.
Many people calculated that the price was even cheaper than what they had grown, so they bought a lot.
And because the price is relatively close to the people, many ordinary people also go to the store to buy it.
The business in the vegetable shop is getting better every day.
Because the vegetables are grown in the ground outside the city, they have to be transported back and forth, so it is more troublesome.
Sometimes the vegetables that customers want are sold out, and it’s not worth it to go outside the city to pick them too far.
Seeing that more and more people came to buy vegetables, and many people felt that the leftovers were not very fresh, Luo Jianjia began to think of other ways.
The method she came up with was to make a reservation.
The day before, I went to a large family to ask for it, and the next morning I picked it up and sent it to them.
In this way, the needs of major customers can basically be met, and sales have increased a lot.
As soon as they settled the accounts at the end of the month, their earnings this month directly doubled, almost reaching five hundred taels.
There are a spicy skewers shop, two fried food shops, and a vegetable shop. There are a total of four shops, more than 400 taels of silver.
“By next month, I won’t have six hundred taels of silver.” Zhao’s eyes narrowed with a smile.
The reason why Zhao said this was because the two newly opened shops were not opened at the beginning of the month, and both opened in the middle of the month. It is estimated that they will be able to increase by one or two hundred taels until next month.
“If our spicy skewers shop were opened, there would be more.” Luo Jianjia also rarely looked forward to the future.
“Yes, yes, there will be more.” Zhao said with a smile.
The two said a few more words, and smiles appeared on everyone’s faces.
Boss Chu, who had never spoken, took a sip of wine, looked at the snow outside, and suddenly said with emotion: “Sometimes it feels like everything is like a dream.”
Zhao Shi and Boss Chu looked at each other, and they all understood what the other party meant.
The two of them had been living very hard for the first half of their lives, and they often couldn’t fill their stomachs.
I can’t wait to spend a penny as two pennies, and I can save a hundred pennies in a year of hard work.
Sometimes the weather is bad, and there is no money left in a year.
Today’s income alone has reached more than a dozen taels in one day.
If someone told them three years ago that they would be so rich in the future, they would not believe it at all.
Even to say, I dare not do such exaggeration in my dreams.
“Isn’t it? It’s really like a dream.” Zhao said, “I don’t know if it is a dream now or the days before.”
Luo Jianjia also thought of the situation of the first few days.
It was the first time she was starving after living such a big life, and she remembered it very clearly.
“Daddy and mother, it’s all over, we will get better and better in the future, and we will never go hungry or cold again.” Luo Jianjia said.
Zhao turned his head to look at Luo Jianjia, shook her hand, and said, “Isn’t it? Since we started doing business, we have never been hungry anymore. Thanks to you.”
Boss Chu also looked at Luo Jianjia and said, “Thanks to Brother Leng’s wife. Today I looked at the thinly-dressed people outside and thought, if Brother Leng’s wife and daughter-in-law didn’t take us to do it a few years ago. In business, people who are hungry and cold outside may become us.”
While talking, Zhao sighed, “Hey, they blame the poor. Yesterday I saw a woman about the same age as me. She looked twenty years older than me and was skinny and hungry.”
Luo Jianjia understands the feeling of starvation, and she has seen many beggars begging on the street recently.
Now they do make a lot of money every day, maybe, they can do something.
“Why don’t we cook porridge outside the shop from tomorrow?”
As soon as this decision came out, it was unanimously agreed by Chu Boss and Zhao.
Chu Wei Leng looked at the girl sitting beside him, his heart warm.
His lady is really a kind person.
Take care of the women and children who have lost their father and brother, give the wounded on the battlefield a chance to find a livelihood, and treat the poor.
Chu Weilian stretched out his hand and quietly held the small hand beside him under the table.
Luo Jianjia noticed his movements and looked up.
Seeing his parents talking, Chu Wei Leng didn’t pay attention to this, so he said in Luo Jianjia’s ear: “The lady’s hands are too cold, I will warm you up for your husband.”
It was really cold after sitting here for a long time, and Luo Jianjia did not refuse him.
