Chapter 79 The first step to becoming a wealthy family

Thinking of the family being able to do business, Jiang Fengnian and his family were filled with excitement. They tossed and turned in their quilts and did not sleep well all night.

The next day, looking at the two dark circles under the eyes of his brother and sister-in-law, Xiao Nuobao was like a rooster that had been stung. He could not help but hold his waist and chuckle.

Just having multiple businesses made the whole family so excited?

If she told the whole family that she had seen it last night, the establishment of the Elderly Hall would make the Jiang family one of the wealthy families in Yuncheng.

I'm afraid that her mother and brother and sister-in-law would faint with joy!

Xiao Nuobao sat on the edge of the kang, swinging his short legs, and his eyes were crooked with laughter. Of course, she had to keep this suspense, so as not to make the whole family lose their energy.

After dinner, Feng called the family together again.

"Since our family is going to open this old people's hall to attract guests, we have to give it a name. What do you think?" she asked the children.

When it comes to naming, Fengnian and Fenghu are not well-educated and can't think of anything for a while.

Finally, it was Fengjing, who was the most knowledgeable, who spoke: "Mom, how about calling it Fushantang? There are words like blessing and kindness, which are good for the elderly and make people feel at ease."

Feng Shi nodded and made the decision, "Okay, then let's name it Fushantang!"

...

The news that the Jiang family was going to open Fushantang soon spread in the village.

The village chief had long regarded Xiao Nuobao as his ancestor, and he strongly supported whatever the Jiang family did.

He came over excitedly and said to Mrs. Feng: "With me, the village chief, here, your family can just do what they want. If there is anything you need help with, just tell the villagers, don't be polite."

Mrs. Feng smiled and accepted the favor from the village chief.

But she had other ideas in her mind.

Doing business is different from building a house. It involves financial interests. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. There is no possibility of letting the villagers help in vain.

If you want to hire people, you can only feel at ease if you spend money to hire them to do things.

Seeing that her mother did not take advantage of small things and suffer big losses, Xiao Nuobao felt at ease. She silently clapped her hands twice and gave her mother a thumbs up in her heart.

The Jiang family worked diligently and started to work soon, first cleaning up the yard of the eldest house.

While cleaning, Feng looked at the conditions of each room.

"The main room, the side room, and the ear room together, a total of twelve rooms, all with heated kangs, can be lived in directly."

"There is a separate small kitchen, which is enough."

"But there is only one toilet. If we can really move in a few more elderly people, we have to build another one in the backyard."

After Feng counted the rooms, she asked Jiang Fengnian to go to the carpentry workshop in the city to buy all the furniture, tables and chairs, replace them with new ones in each room, and then order the plaque of Fushantang.

In order to open the business earlier, Jiang Fengnian went there that day and spent a few hundred more coins on expedited fees and placed an urgent order.

In addition to decorating each room, the rest was to clean the front and back yards thoroughly.

Zhao was too sloppy, and the hygiene problems she left behind were not small. Feng would have to work for two or three days to clean it up.

Seeing her mother and sisters-in-law rushing to clean up, they were so tired that their clothes were wet when they returned home.

Xiao Nuobao held her face in her hands with heartache.

So that night, she got out of the quilt, lay on the windowsill, and ordered Ergui to do this hard job.

The next morning, Feng and her two daughters-in-law were sore all over. When they were about to go to Fushan Hall to continue working, they were shocked when they opened the door.

The huge front yard was empty of clutter in an instant.

There was no dust on the ground, and even the bricks had been scrubbed and were so bright that they seemed to be able to reflect light.

"Mom!" At this time, Sun Chunxue ran to the backyard and shouted in surprise: "Why are the weeds on the ground gone? They were as high as my calves yesterday!"

Feng ran over to take a look.

Not only was the weeds removed, but even the vegetable plots were re-divided, and the dog holes at the base of the wall were emptied of debris and blocked with stones.

"Mom, could it be... that some kind villager came to help us?" Li Qiqiao's eyes were wide open, and she racked her brains but couldn't figure out what was going on.

Feng held the bucket, opened her mouth, and stood there in a daze for a long time.

Finally, she threw the things aside and rushed back home in a hurry. It must be her little baby who did it again, so let her hug him!

The Jiang family prepared for another three days.

After all the furniture, tables and chairs were put into the house and the custom-made plaque was hung, the Fushan Hall was officially opened for business!

There are a total of twelve rooms in the hall, all of which are good rooms with complete furniture and can be heated with earthen kangs.

Because of their different sizes, different sun exposure and different locations, the Jiang family decided to set the price according to the room, and first calculated it based on one room for one person.

Among them, the four main rooms have a monthly fee of twelve taels of silver.

Although the side rooms are slightly smaller, they are not bad, so they are charged ten taels of silver.

As for the side rooms on both sides, due to limited lighting, the price is set at seven taels of silver per month.

This fee includes three meals a day, cooked by Li Qiqiao, with at least three kinds of noodles for breakfast, and two meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes and one soup for lunch and dinner.

In addition, trivial matters such as mending and washing clothes are also done by Fushantang.

If there are elderly people who need close care, Fushantang can also find caregivers for them in the village, but the cost is extra.

When this news came out, many surrounding villages were very surprised.

They all felt that the price was ridiculous, and they felt that they were all country folk, so they should just do the same as them and farm well, instead of making trouble and making jokes.

However, Feng thought of the urgency of Boss Yang, but made up her mind.

This Fushantang was originally opened for rich families. If the price is not high, people may not be interested.

The family cannot just earn hard-earned money from farming for the rest of their lives. Now it is all a gamble, and it can be regarded as a good way out for the family.

Fu Shan Tang soon welcomed its first guest,

Mr. Yang's father-in-law, Dr. Wu, who was nearly 60 years old.

Dr. Wu came with a medicine box on his back, and when he saw that Fu Shan Tang had a large backyard where he could grow vegetables and raise ducks, he immediately nodded in satisfaction.

Upon learning that the first guest had arrived, Xiao Nuobao put on a newly made scarlet jacket and a rabbit fur vest, and ran to the door of Fushantang, jumping around like a little mascot.

"Welcome to Fushantang, Grandpa Wu. I am Xiao Nuobao!"

"Wow, Grandpa Wu looks like a lucky guy. Living in Fushantang, I guarantee you will live a long life and get younger and younger!" Xiao Nuobao's mouth was as sweet as honey, and after saying that, he used his ultimate move and gave Doctor Wu a cute smile.

Doctor Wu was immediately poked in the chest, and he stroked his beard kindly, and was about to take out his pocket to give Xiao Nuobao some maltose.

"Good child, Grandpa Wu is grateful for your good words. Before I live to be 100 years old, I will really stay in your Fushan Hall." Doctor Wu smiled humorously.

After that, he patted Boss Yang and praised him, "Well, you found a good place. I will live here. I will pay the fee for one year directly, so I can live comfortably."

"By the way, write a letter to your uncle Jiang and ask him to come and accompany me!"

Seeing that the daughter brought out a guest in a few words, Feng smiled so hard that she couldn't stop, and hurriedly went to meet Doctor Wu to choose a house.

Doctor Wu chose a big house with a main room.

Twelve taels per month.

Within a few days, his old friend, Grandpa Jiang, also came to find him with a roll of rooves.

Boss Yang and Mr. Jiang had a wide network of contacts in the city. With their promotion and the fact that Fu Shan Tang in the countryside sounded really new,

within half a month, dozens of people came to see it.

Fu Shan Tang had a total of twelve rooms, and eleven of them were soon occupied!
