"Husband, tomorrow is the day we agreed to split the money with Miss Xia, right? Have you finished calculating the accounts?" Luo Suyue brought in hot tea and saw Fan Sheng sitting at his desk, looking at the account book intently.

Upon hearing his wife's voice, Fan Sheng twisted his aching neck and replied, "I've calculated it almost completely. After deducting the monthly allowance for Feng Shou and his wife, and other expenses over the past three months, we've earned a total of 456 taels of silver."

This was something he and Xia Qingqing had agreed upon. Xia Qingqing would provide the materials and guidance for opening the shop, while he and his wife would provide the shop and labor. All other expenses would be split equally.

Whether it's the money spent hiring staff or the money spent hiring people to write and distribute flyers, these are considered shop operating expenses and are not included in the profit sharing.

Luo Suyue exclaimed in delight, "So much! We can get more than two hundred taels of silver, which is almost enough to buy another shop!"

She couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking how profitable business really was. Before, she couldn't even earn two hundred taels of silver in a whole year, but now she could earn that in just three months.

“Otherwise, why would rich people like to open shops? It’s because they can make a lot of money,” Fan Sheng said, taking a sip of his hot tea.

Luo Suyue smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Miss Xia for telling us the milk tea recipe. Otherwise, even if we opened a shop, we wouldn't have made so much money. Our shop has the most customers on this street."

If it weren't for the help of Wang Fengshou and his wife, she and Fan Sheng really wouldn't have been able to manage.

The next day, Xia Qingqing received a video call invitation from Fan Sheng.

Fan Sheng wore his usual simple smile: "Miss Xia, I have already sent you the shop's profits for the past three months, a total of two hundred and twenty-eight taels of silver."

"Earning over two hundred taels of silver in three months is quite impressive," Xia Qingqing praised with a smile.

"Yes, thanks to you, otherwise my family would still be living a miserable life," Fan Sheng said sincerely to Xia Qingqing.

Xia Qingqing shook her head: "This is your own opportunity. If you hadn't been bound to the interdimensional trading system, even if I wanted to help you, I couldn't."

"But I still want to thank you. Others might not have been willing to help us," Fan Sheng insisted.

Xia Qingqing had a lot of gold and silver in her system warehouse. When she didn't take it out to exchange for money, it was no different from stones, so she wasn't interested in taking it out to examine it from time to time.

Therefore, Xia Qingqing asked Fan Sheng to exchange all of the two hundred taels of silver for silk fabrics and jade jewelry, and to do the same for every subsequent profit sharing.

Silks, satins, and jewelry can be worn or exchanged for money, which is much better than gold and silver.

Of course, Xia Qingqing herself also liked these beautiful pieces of jewelry. Ancient jewelry was all handmade, and there was never too much of it.

Sometimes she regretted that Gou Dan wasn't a little girl, otherwise she could dress her up beautifully every day.

Fan Sheng nodded vigorously: "No problem, I'll have my wife buy it for you later, she has a better eye than me."

"There's no rush. You can go whenever you have free time," Xia Qingqing said casually.

Although Xia Qingqing said there was no rush, Fan Sheng immediately told Luo Suyue about it after hanging up the phone, asking her to go to the street to buy the things for Xia Qingqing after lunch.

"Okay, did Xia Qingqing say what style she likes?" Luo Suyue asked.

Fan Sheng scratched his head awkwardly: "He didn't say."

Luo Suyue glared at the man: "She didn't say anything and you didn't ask? What if Miss Xia doesn't like what I bought?"

"Probably not," Fan Sheng said hesitantly.

Luo Suyue remained silent, coldly watching Fan Sheng, making him feel uneasy.

"Well, I noticed that Miss Xia's attire is rather simple and elegant. She probably prefers simple and elegant jewelry, right?" Fan Sheng said uncertainly.

To be honest, he really didn't understand. Miss Xia clearly looked very wealthy, but her clothes and appearance didn't resemble those of a rich person at all.

However, although he was curious, he didn't ask any more questions. What someone wears is their own business, and if he asked, it would seem particularly inappropriate, and it would be bad if he upset Miss Xia.

Luo Suyue nodded upon hearing this answer: "Then I'll listen to you and buy more jewelry with simple and elegant styles. I'll also buy fabrics in various colors, so that Miss Xia's family can use them too."

Judging from the few bolts of dark fabric that Miss Xia asked them to help buy last time, it's clear that Miss Xia must have male family members, either her husband, her father, or her brothers.

So Russell was thinking about whether to buy some items that men could use, such as thumb rings or jade pendants.

She shared this idea with Fan Sheng, who nodded in agreement: "Buy them, buy a little of everything. Miss Xia is actually very easy to get along with. I believe that even if she doesn't like what we buy, she won't be angry with us."

Luo Suyue glared at him but didn't say anything. What did that stinky man know? This wasn't a matter of being angry or not. Miss Xia had helped their family so much; they should thank her properly.

Now that people have gone to great lengths to ask them to help buy something, if they can't even do this simple good deed, it makes them seem utterly incompetent.

"I won't say anything more, you can buy whatever you want," Fan Sheng gestured for him to shut up.

Then he intimately put his arm around Luo Suyue's waist and said, "Wife, buy yourself and Yaoyao some jewelry this afternoon. Our family is not short of money. You two should dress yourselves up beautifully."

“I don’t need any, I already bought some, but I could buy a few hair accessories for Yaoyao,” Luo Suyue said gently.

“You have to buy it. I’ll give you 20 taels of silver later. You’re not allowed to go home until you’ve used it all,” Fan Sheng said, unusually assertive.

My wife has suffered so much with me all these years since we married, and now that we finally have money, of course I have to treat her better.

Russell gave the man a coquettish glare, but her heart was filled with sweetness. Although the man's words were extremely domineering, she still liked them very much.

On the other side, Wang Fengshou and his wife received their monthly allowance. Wang Fengshou smiled and told his wife, "Take some time these next few days to buy some fabric and make new clothes for the children and parents."

Mrs. Wang nodded with a smile: "It's time to do it. Buy the children a few more strings of candied hawthorns, and I guarantee they'll be overjoyed."

Thinking back to how happy the children were when she brought candied hawthorns home last time, Wang felt that no matter how tired she was, it was all worth it.

“Life is getting better and better, all thanks to Brother Sheng. Otherwise, we would still be working hard in the fields, how could we possibly earn two taels of silver a month?” Wang Fengshou’s tone was full of gratitude for Fan Sheng.

Wang nodded in agreement, feeling no jealousy whatsoever towards Fan Sheng and his wife.

When someone is only slightly better than you, you might feel resentful and jealous. However, when that person is far, far better than you, all resentment and jealousy vanish.
