To be honest, Jiang Qiaoqiao had thought about it, but running a food business, especially a prepared food business, was much more troublesome than selling clothes.

Another issue is that if you only produce duck products, it's difficult to have a stable and large-volume supply of ingredients.

In those days, the economy hadn't developed yet, and transportation was inconvenient. Items like duck products weren't even sold specifically for that purpose.

Xia Yuntao chuckled and said, "If you're interested, I can help you solve these problems. People in the North and South of the city love roast duck, and many shops throw away the duck parts after making roast duck. I can have someone buy up the duck parts they don't want from those shops."

“Mr. Xia, this will make transportation costs too high, and the price of the finished product will also rise accordingly. People won’t be willing to eat such expensive duck products.” Jiang Qiaoqiao smiled and pointed out the crux of the problem.

"Haha..." Xia Yuntao laughed heartily, "It was my oversight."

Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Mr. Xia, I have been planning to do this business recently, but it won't be me doing it, it will be my family."

Xia Yuntao was somewhat surprised, "The Jiang family?"

Yesterday, Jiang Yongchang and Jiang Qiaoqiao saved him, and he inquired about their family background.

He knew that all members of the Jiang family had jobs, and that their jobs were all quite good.

Jiang Jiahua was the deputy factory director, Peng Cuiying was the director, and Jiang Yongchang was the battalion commander.

Apart from Jiang Qiaoqiao and her adopted daughter Jiang Yiran, who married into the countryside, it seems that no one in the Jiang family has any idea of ​​starting a business.

Jiang Qiaoqiao shook her head, "It's not them, it's the family that raised me."

Jiang Qiaoqiao's skill in making duck products was actually learned from her adoptive mother.

However, in her previous life, after using this to do business, she improved her adoptive mother's original recipe many times.

In her past life, she used her adoptive mother's skills to make the Qin family wealthy, but she didn't properly help her adoptive parents' family, and even...

She didn't want to recall too much about her past life.

All I want is to return this business to my adoptive parents and brother in this lifetime, hoping they can live a good life through it.

Perhaps after they start this business, the people of Luer Village, where she grew up, will also be able to get rich along with them.

Just like Qin Family Village after the Qin family prospered in the previous life.

Xia Yuntao heard Jiang Qiaoqiao say that she wanted her adoptive parents to do this business. If the business grew big, she also wanted to sign an agreement with the villagers to form a cooperative and lead the villagers to get rich together.

His gaze toward Jiang Qiaoqiao held a newfound appreciation.

Moreover, what Jiang Qiaoqiao told him was clearly well thought out, unlike Qin Haiyang's empty boasting yesterday.

As Xia Yuntao listened to Jiang Qiaoqiao, he nodded in agreement. "Qiaoqiao, you're right. The most important thing in food processing is cleanliness and hygiene. So let's open a shop directly for these duck products, instead of setting up a stall. You should discuss it with your family first, find a suitable shop, and then I'll provide the capital, and you can provide the technical expertise. We'll cooperate."

Although I knew all along that Xia Yuntao would definitely invest.

But hearing him say those words so quickly still made Jiang Qiaoqiao a little excited.

After all, in his previous life, Xia Yuntao was injured during a robbery and stayed at the Qin family's house for a full month. Only when he sent someone to pick him up did he reveal his identity and tell them about his investment in their shop.

I never expected that Xia Yuntao would decide to invest in them so easily.

After Xia Yuntao left, Jiang Qiaoqiao excitedly returned to the staff and family compound.

Unexpectedly, Huo Beixiao was already home.

She told Huo Beixiao about what she had discussed with Xia Yuntao, "I need to go back to Luer Village to discuss it with my parents and brother. You can eat dinner by yourself, don't worry about me. I'm leaving now."

As she finished speaking, Huo Beixiao climbed onto the tricycle seat before her, saying, "I'll go with you. I'll pedal, and you can sit in the back."

Jiang Qiaoqiao didn't refuse.

Luer Village is remote and far from the county seat.

She rode her tricycle there, and by the time she reached the village, it was probably already dark.

She's still a little scared when she's alone.

On the other side, the Jiang family.

Jiang Yongchang looked at Jiang Yiran, whose eyes were red and tearful, and his gloomy face was filled with anger. "Ranran, you are not a child anymore! You have to take responsibility for your own actions!"

"You swore you'd make money opening a supermarket, and Mom gave you all her savings of two thousand yuan, which was meant for her funeral, not to mention she incurred a two thousand five-thousand-yuan high-interest loan. Now that our family has paid off the loan, you still want me to give you a few hundred yuan to pay off your debts and wages? Do you think that's possible?"

"If you don't have the skills, don't take on the job. We won't be there to clean up your messes forever!"

Jiang Yiran's red-eyed crying just now actually had an element of acting involved.

But now...

"Wow--"

She was truly ashamed and heartbroken after being scolded by Jiang Yongchang, and she burst into tears.

"Bang!"

Hearing her crying, Jiang Yong'an rushed into the room where she was talking to Jiang Yongchang.

She stood protectively in front of her, glaring angrily at Jiang Yongchang, "Jiang Lao Er, what are you doing? Ranran just wants a few hundred yuan, it's not like she wants your life. Just give it to her, why are you yelling at her?"

After Jiang Yong'an finished speaking, he quickly went to comfort Jiang Yiran, "Ranran, don't cry, don't cry. You're pregnant, crying too much is bad for the baby. Jiang Lao Er is heartless, he won't give you money, but your third brother will find a way to help you, and he definitely won't let you be in trouble because of money."

Jiang Yongchang frowned as he looked at Jiang Yong'an.

Even as his older brother, he felt that Jiang Yong'an was being a little too indulgent towards Jiang Yiran.

However, both Jiang Yong'an and Jiang Yiran are adults, and as their older brother, he can't control them all.

He went outside and saw Yu Hanfei parking her bicycle.

He went up to her, "Didn't you find Qiaoqiao?"

“We found it,” Yu Hanfei said naturally. “But my brother-in-law said that his relatives are having a banquet today, so they won’t be coming.”

This excuse was something Yu Hanfei came up with for Jiang Qiaoqiao on the way back.

Jiang Jiahua is currently trying to curry favor with Huo Yuanshan in order to become the factory director. Using this excuse, neither Huo Yuanshan nor Peng Cuiying will say anything.

Sure enough, Huo Yuanshan and Peng Cuiying nodded repeatedly after learning about this, "Of course, of course. We just invited them back for a casual meal. Her in-laws are hosting a banquet, so of course we should prioritize their needs."

As Jiang Jiahua and Peng Cuiying entered the house with Jiang Yongchang and Yu Hanfei, Jiang Yong'an was helping the sobbing Jiang Yiran out of the house.

Jiang Jiahua's expression changed instantly upon seeing Jiang Yiran. "We've already severed ties. What are you doing here at our house? Get out!"

Without much hesitation, Jiang Yiran knelt down with a thud. "Dad, I was wrong, I know I was wrong..."

Jiang Yiran's tearful pleas not only broke Jiang Yong'an's heart, but also made Peng Cuiying feel extremely distressed.
