Chapter 73 So the purpose is here

Lin Xi pointed at the low table and said to Cai Xiaomei, "I heard that you can cook at home, so I will leave the task of cooking to you from now on."

Then he said to Cai Yong, "Your task is even more important. I need you to learn how to keep accounts and do math within a month. You need to practice writing with your feet."

After hearing what Lin Xi said, the Cai siblings looked at each other. It was understandable that she assigned the task to Cai Xiaomei, but wasn't it a bit too much to ask Cai Yong to learn how to write?

"Boss Lin, it's not that I don't want to, but I can't even read a single word. You want me to learn how to keep accounts, and I'm afraid..." Cai Yong looked quite embarrassed.

Lin Xi smiled and took out a book and placed it in front of Cai Yong. You don’t need to learn a lot of words to keep accounts. The most important thing is numbers. Please read this book carefully. I will come to check your results in seven days.

After saying that, Lin Xi went to do his own thing, and Dai Jiner was responsible for handing over the rest of the specific work to them.

Cai Yong looked at the book in front of him, feeling somewhat dejected.

Cai Xiaomei was much more optimistic, "Brother, didn't Sister Lin say that some people can write even if they have no arms? If others can do it, you can definitely do it too!"

With the encouragement from his sister, Cai Yong cheered up a little. Thinking of the teachings of his parents at home, he must not give up this opportunity.

After figuring it out, he stretched out his foot and prepared to turn the page.

"Brother, wait a minute, I'll go wash your feet." Cai Xiaomei saw that Cai Yong's feet were covered with mud. If it got on the pages of the book, it would definitely dirty the book.

Dai Jin'er just came in with a basin of water from outside the door. "Don't bother. Your sister Lin has taken care of it."

Cai Yong looked down at the mud on his feet, feeling very embarrassed.

"Don't think about anything. I'm kind-hearted. When I heard about your family's situation, I said I wanted to visit. I never looked down on you for having disabilities." Dai Jin'er was truly touched.

There are bosses who are willing to offer high prices, and there are many bosses who are willing to hire normal people, but in all her years, she has never heard of anyone who is willing to hire a disabled person at a normal price.

"You have to work hard, but there is one thing, all of Lin's recipes are secret and must not be disclosed to the outside world!" Dai Jin'er said seriously, "If something goes wrong, don't say that your aunt didn't help you."

"Aunt, don't worry, I'm not a fool." Cai Yong said quickly.

"Yes, since we are working in Sister Lin's shop, we will definitely not do anything to let her down." Cai Xiaomei also looked serious.

Dai Jin'er patted their shoulders and said, "I know you are not that kind of people. I am just reminding you."

…

The cold-eaten rabbit business was much better than Lin Xi had expected, with an income of one to two taels every day, although it was far less than selling bacon.

However, with the gradual saturation of the bacon market and the mismatch with current market demand, the income of the two is actually basically the same.

Cai Xiaomei and Cai Yong have also made great progress during this period. For Cai Yong, who has never held a pen, it is not an easy task to learn to write with his feet.

Interestingly, when Cai Yong first started practicing writing on paper, Xiao Yongyan would come over and give him some guidance.

But later he heard from somewhere that the price of paper and pen was extremely high, and he was so scared that he immediately stopped writing and could only practice on stone with a brush dipped in water.

Hard work pays off. After a month, Cai Yong's handwriting was quite decent and he could even recognize some words commonly used in bookkeeping.

Cai Yong's self-confidence also increased a lot, and he no longer felt like a useless person as before.

The Cai family saw these changes and were grateful. If it weren't for Lin Xi, her son wouldn't be so positive. Cai's mother seemed to see the son before he lost his arm.

On this day, Lin Xi and Xiao Yongyan took a rare break and went out together, leaving the Cai siblings to look after the store.

Guo Lijie stood at the door of the store and didn't see anyone he knew. Lin Xi was not there, and neither was the older woman. There was only a man and a woman. The man had no arms, and the woman had no legs.

"Hello, are you here to buy cold rabbit?" Cai Xiaomei greeted with a smile. She didn't know Guo Lijie and thought he was just an ordinary customer.

"Is Lin Xi still your boss?" Guo Lijie asked hesitantly.

Cai Xiaomei nodded, "Yes, but she is out for something now."

Guo Lijie looked at the two people in front of him, and was really confused. What was going on with this Lin Xi? Where did he find two weird guys to watch the store?

But she's not here now, so maybe it's a good opportunity.

"Well, I have something important to tell you. Can you let me in for a moment?" Guo Lijie asked.

The Cai siblings seldom dealt with businessmen, so they had no idea how sinister people were. They let Guo Lijie in without any precautions.

"I haven't seen you in the store before?" Guo Lijie asked. He had been in the business world for many years and knew best how to trick people. In no time, he got to know the situation of the two siblings clearly.

What Guo Lijie didn't expect was that the wages in Linxi store were so high, one or two taels of silver a month.

"So, you have only been here for a month and you have already learned how to cook cold rabbit?" Guo Lijie said gently.

Cai Xiaomei was a little embarrassed, but Cai Yong said openly, "My sister is very smart. She learned it in three days." "That's amazing." Guo Lijie was quite supportive, and then asked, "But even if the salary is high, it's still not easy to improve your life."

These words immediately brought back the sad memories of the two siblings.

Over the years, in order to survive, the family has borrowed a lot of money from others. Even though they earn a lot now, it still seems not enough to repay the family's debts.

"Do you think this is a good idea?" Guo Lijie lowered his voice slightly. "In fact, sometimes, the most important thing about making money is choice. If you make the right choice, anyone can soar to the sky."

After he finished speaking, Guo Lijie took out two large silver ingots from his pocket and placed them on the table.

The Cai brothers and sisters stared with their eyes wide open. They had never seen such a large silver ingot before and were so shocked that they were speechless on the spot.

Guo Lijie watched their performance with satisfaction. This was exactly the effect he wanted. He didn't believe that a few country people wouldn't be tempted.

"As long as you do me a small favor, the money will be yours." Guo Lijie said.

"What help do you need?" Cai Yong pulled Cai Xiaomei behind him. Although he was not well educated, he understood the basic principle that there is no such thing as a free lunch.

The person in front of them had nothing to do with them, but he came up and took out so much money. It was not normal.

"It's really simple," Guo Lijie said, "You guys know how to make cold rabbit, right? Just teach me once."

When the Cai brothers and sisters heard this, they finally realized that this person had said so many nice things and it turned out that this was his purpose!
