The Valiant Farmgirl's Blackhearted Husband Wants a Hug - Chapter 130
130 Chapter 130: The Diligent Wang Xiaomei
Wang Dashan’s face froze.
When he thought of how his mother had used up all the family’s savings to arrange for him to marry a daughter of the Qian family, a touch of hatred flashed through his heart.
Qian Juhua was the daughter of his mother’s second cousin.
When he and his mother went to the Qian family when he was young, he was often bullied by her.
!!
When she grew up, that woman’s reputation in the Qian family’s village was also very bad.
If he really married that kind of woman, he would end up no better than his father.
Moreover, he already had…
Forget it. Now that his family had fallen to such a state, it was better not to delay other people.
Wang Xiaomei looked up at her big brother.
“Big Brother, after you go back, plan well what you are going to do next.”
Wang Dashan nodded.
“Okay, I know!”
The two of them talked for a while more before Wang Dashan left.
Wang Xiaomei sent him off and stood outside the courtyard for a long time before returning.
The next day.
When Qin Xiaoyao went to deliver the goods, she arranged for Wang Xiaomei to follow her, and she also brought two jars of century eggs.
When Boss Fang heard that Qin Xiaoyao had delivered a new dish, he dropped everything he was doing and went to the back kitchen.
Qin Xiaoyao went to the back kitchen to show off her skills again.
She made congee with century egg and lean meat, century egg with green pepper, and century egg and cucumber soup for Boss Fang and the chefs of Fortune Mansion to have a taste.
Of course, the result turned out the way she expected, and the dishes won unanimous praise.
After seeing the two jars of century eggs that Qin Xiaoyao had brought, Boss Fang accepted them straight away.
He then set the price of two copper coins for the chicken egg and three copper coins for the duck egg.
Moreover, for the first batch of delivery, he asked for 500 chicken eggs and 200 duck eggs.
He also said he would continue to place orders after he finished using the century eggs.
Of course, the condition was the same as before. Qin Xiaoyao was not allowed to supply to other restaurants and eateries.
However, this time, Qin Xiaoyao didn’t completely agree.
“It’s fine if I don’t sell it to other restaurants and eateries in Mountain Spring Town, but I may open a porridge shop in the future. Uncle Fang, you can’t say I’m breaking the contract when I sell the century egg congee at that point.”
Of course, opening a porridge shop was just a thought at this moment.
After all, renting a shop to do business was not a small matter. Besides, she did not have any free time for the time being.
However, it was also good to think about it first. After all, how could setting up a stall to do business be more stable than opening a shop?
When she had accumulated enough money, she would have to develop in the direction of opening a shop.
Boss Fang was taken aback.
“You want to open a porridge shop?” he was somewhat surprised.
This girl really knew how to plan!
Based on the taste of the century egg congee alone, once she started the porridge shop, the business might not be bad.
Qin Xiaoyao simply smiled.
“It’s just a temporary idea. Opening a shop is a big deal. How can we do it just because we want to? ”
“I just want to inform you first, Uncle Fang, to avoid any misunderstandings later.”
Boss Fang nodded his head in satisfaction.
“If it’s just you opening your own porridge shop, we, Fortune Mansion, naturally have no objections,” he said with a smile.
“However, other dishes related to century eggs…”
“Don’t worry, Uncle Fang,” Qin Xiaoyao reassured him hurriedly. “I know my culinary skills very well. I don’t have the ability to open a restaurant.”
Since she wasn’t opening a restaurant, she wouldn’t sell dishes related to century eggs.
Boss Fang laughed with amusement.
“Don’t be so modest, girl. Ever since we started working with you, half of the specialty dishes of Fortune Mansion we have been gradually introducing are connected to you.”
“Hehe! That’s because Uncle Fang has a good eye for people and gave me a chance,” Qin Xiaoyao responded with flattery.
Boss Fang was very pleased to hear this.
He reminded Qin Xiaoyao to continue sending any good dishes she had in the future to Fortune Mansion.
Qin Xiaoyao agreed with a smile.
After settling the accounts and getting the money, she left with Wang Xiaomei.
Wang Xiaomei knew beforehand that Qin Xiaoyao had a close relationship with Fortune Mansion. When she saw with her own eyes Qin Xiaoyao discussing business with Boss Fang, she was full of admiration for her.
“Mrs. Song, are we really going to open a porridge shop in the future?” Wang Xiaomei couldn’t help but ask Qin Xiaoyao after they left Fortune Mansion.
“Not for the time being,” Qin Xiaoyao replied.
“Then you…” Wang Xiaomei was a little surprised.
Qin Xiaoyao chuckled.
“It’s not so simple to open a shop. The location of the shop and the rent are all not small matters.”
“In addition, a porridge shop doesn’t just sell porridge. It should also sell stuff like steamed buns and the like that can go with porridge. I don’t know how to cook these items right now.”
Qin Xiaoyao looked at Wang Xiaomei and continued, “I have to learn the skills first. After I master the skills, I still have to set up a street stall to try it out.”
“It won’t be too late to open the shop after I have more confidence.”
After all, she didn’t have much money on hand, and it wasn’t easy for her to earn money.
If they didn’t do it step by step cautiously, they might end up back to square one if they made a wrong move.
Wang Xiaomei listened carefully and nodded her head.
She realized that there was a good reason that Mrs. Song was able to make a lot of money.
Next, the two of them went to Fortune Restaurant to deliver goods.
After that, they sent the handcart back to the Song family’s compound.
Qin Xiaoyao then brought Wang Xiaomei to the market on South Street to look for Big Girl Li. She then personally taught Wang Xiaomei how to set up a stall and sell goods.
She had thought that Wang Xiaomei would be shy, so she would have to spend more effort teaching her. Much to her surprise, Wang Xiaomei picked up the ropes very quickly.
Moreover, she quickly noted down the selling prices of all the woven bamboo products and began serving the customers in a practiced manner.
Qin Xiaoyao and Big Girl Li were both shocked. They both agreed quickly that Wang Xiaomei was a promising girl.
The only thing that gave Qin Xiaoyao some regret was that Wang Xiaomei’s grasp of mathematics wasn’t very good.
When she encountered slightly more complicated calculations, she had to ask Qin Xiaoyao or Big Girl Li.
Qin Xiaoyao made up her mind inwardly that she had to spend some time teaching Wang Xiaomei mathematics.
Well… she might have to teach her some words too.
In addition, she herself might have to learn as well.
After all, the written characters used in this era were different from the simplified characters she knew.
Thus, over the next few days, Qin Xiaoyao personally taught Wang Xiaomei, as well as Song Yun and Song Ye mathematics.
When Song Que heard about it, he also came to listen.
When he realized that some of the mathematical formulae Qin Xiaoyao taught were simpler, he would occasionally ask her for advice.
As a result, Qin Xiaoyao inadvertently became the teacher to the four of them.
After a few days, Teacher Qin announced that she was very pleased.
Her students were all doing very well.
The one with the best results was, of course, Song Que. After all, he was well-versed in mathematics, to begin with.
To her surprise, the person in second place was Wang Xiaomei.
Of course, this had something to do with her intelligence and diligence.
She was especially diligent, and even Qin Xiaoyao, a top student before the apocalypse, was impressed.
In third and fourth places were naturally Song Yun and Song Ye, respectively.
The two little ones had some foundation, so they learned quickly.
After making sure that Wang Xiaomei had mastered mathematics, Qin Xiaoyao finally decided to set up a separate stall from Big Girl Li. She decided to set up another stall in the market on North Street.
And so, one day, Qin Xiaoyao brought Wang Xiaomei to pick out a handcart.
Then, she handed the handcart to Wang Xiaomei.
“From tomorrow onward, we’ll have to set up our stalls separately from Big Girl Li.”
“In the morning, I will make deliveries to Fortune Mansion and Fortune Restaurant. You will push the handcart and reserve a place. Then, you can start selling.”
“I’ll go to the market on North Street to take your place after I’m done with my work.”
“After that, I’ll need you to go help Mother and the others with the household chores!” Qin Xiaoyao said.
