Even if we take a step back and assume that Zhuang Qingning no longer runs the tofu shop in the future, Zhuang Mingliang will be able to support himself and will not have to worry about making a living.

Not to mention the salary increase? And the increase is so huge.

"Ning girl, don't worry. I will definitely tell Mingliang to do his job well and learn from you." He's words were a little unsound: "Don't worry, Mingliang is an honest child. He will definitely not forget his roots after learning this little tofu-making skill..."

Zhuang Qingning smiled. No one else could learn her secret of making delicious tofu. She was really not afraid of teaching her apprentice and starving herself to death.

"I think Mingliang is steady and honest, and I can trust him." Zhuang Qingning said with a smile, "Although we have to wait until the shop is ready before we can start working, but during this period of time, uncle and aunt can help me look for people who can work in the tofu shop. We will work in two shifts, so the mill will not stop even if people stop working."

"Okay, don't worry about this. I've found someone for you." Zhuang Yonghe nodded repeatedly and grinned, "To be honest, little girl Ning, the last time I went to find someone to work in the tofu shop, many people wanted to come but couldn't. Some also hesitated but then regretted it when they saw others working and making money. Later, several people secretly asked me to remember to tell her if anyone didn't want to do it."

"If I knew that you, Miss Ning, were looking for someone to do the work again, I would just spread the word and someone would come to my door without even having to look for them."

"I'll check for you, only look for the good ones, and show them to you. In the end, it's up to you to decide."

"Okay." Zhuang Qingning said with a smile, "Thank you for your concern."

"Please stop saying such polite things. My family can make money by selling tofu with you, and we can make money by collecting beans and duck eggs. Mingliang also learned the craft from you. In a sense, our whole family is benefiting from you. Isn't it my duty to help you with some things?" Zhuang Yonghe said, "If you say such polite things again, your uncle will be angry with you."

"Okay, I won't tell you." Zhuang Qingning smiled.

He talked with Zhuang Yonghe and He about the tofu shop. After chatting for a while, Zhuang Qingning prepared to go home.

He picked a handful of vegetables and asked Zhuang Qingning to take them back.

"Aunt, it's not that I'm refusing your kindness. It's just that Qingsui and I can't finish eating the vegetables grown at home. It would be a waste if we take them back." Zhuang Qingning declined.

He chuckled, "Yes, the vegetables you grow are really good. I can see through the wall that the pumpkin leaves are thick and plump. I think the pumpkins will be big and sweet. Just by looking at this, I know that the vegetables next to your house are also growing well."

"This is where we used to slaughter pigs and sheep. The soil here is fertile and the vegetables grow really well." Zhuang Qingning smiled and said, "The chives are growing so fast that we can't eat them all. If you don't have enough vegetables at home, you can come to my place and pick some."

This was originally intended to be food for Zhuang Qingning, but in the end she was asked to go to her place to get the food. Of course He was unwilling to go, but she also felt that it would not be right if she did not bring something back for Zhuang Qingning. In the end, she gave Zhuang Qingning a small basket of peanuts and asked her to take it back and put some in porridge or something, which would make it taste fragrant.

There was indeed no peanut planting at home, so Zhuang Qingning did not refuse this time. He just picked the peanuts and went home with them.

He started grinding tofu in the middle of the night and walked to the town in the early morning. When the tofu was almost sold out, he asked Zhuang Qingsui to help watch over the tofu stall while he went to tidy up the shop.

After cleaning the house inside and out, Lian Rong helped go to Deng's house and move all the shelves, boards, tables and other things she mentioned into the shop. He also asked Zhuang Yonghe to find a carpenter to make some plywood specifically for storing tofu, a chopping board for cutting tofu and other things.

Zhuang Qingning even hired someone to make a sign and hung it at the door in advance as a pre-opening advertisement.

Zhang Yongchang also prepared some things specifically for the tofu shop, including talisman paper for purifying the house and strings of copper coins that indicated a good start to the business, all of which were intended to bring good feng shui to the shop.

Zhuang Qingning was quite helpless about this, but seeing that Zhang Yongchang attached so much importance to the matter of Feng Shui, she stopped trying to persuade her and just let him do it.

Grinding tofu, selling tofu, and running the shop, Zhuang Qingning was very busy.

The news that Zhuang Qingning rented the shop with bad feng shui to open a tofu shop gradually spread throughout the town.

"Hey, have you heard that the shop with bad feng shui has been rented out by someone?"

"Who is so bold that he is not afraid of losing money or causing trouble for his family because of this shop?"

"The two girls who had been selling tofu in the town probably thought that the tofu business was good and it was a bit inconvenient when it was windy and rainy, so they rented a shop to sell tofu. They also rented this shop and prepared to open a shop."

"Tsk tsk, these two girls have been in town for quite some time, they should have heard about this, why did they rent a shop like this? Aren't they afraid that they will lose their business in the future?"

"Who knows? I guess he is still young and not afraid of anything. Even if he knows, he will want to take a chance and show off his ability. When the business really goes out of business, he will realize how powerful he is. I don't know yet."

"Feng Shui is a mysterious thing. It's also said that if a person's luck is strong, it's hard to say whether he can be suppressed."

"It's hard to say, but this little girl is really brave. She's really not afraid of losing money or getting into trouble..."

Such topics are most likely to arouse people's interest. Word of it spread from one person to ten, and from ten to a hundred. Soon everyone in the town knew about the two things.

First, the shop with bad feng shui was rented out.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Second, Zhuang Qingning’s tofu stall had to be changed into a tofu shop, which was the shop with bad feng shui.

"See, I told you, this shop has its advantages. Now I don't have to make a fuss to advertise it, everyone else knows that my tofu shop is going to open." Zhuang Qingning said with a grin.

"You do have some ideas." Zhang Yongchang glanced at Zhuang Qingning unhappily.

He was very unhappy about this shop with bad feng shui, but facing the situation before him, he had to admit that Zhuang Qingning's idea was indeed a good one.

Let’s not talk about whether this is a good thing or not, but it is known to everyone.

Seeing that Zhang Yongchang refused to admit that he was wrong, Zhuang Qingning did not force him and just smiled and talked about other things.

The preparations for setting up the tofu shop were intensive. As there were not many types of items to sell, there was no need for excessive decoration, as it only needed to be clean and tidy, so it only took three or four days.

The opening date was set for three days later, which was a good day for opening.

Zhuang Qingning breathed a sigh of relief after getting the matter done.

Zhuang Qingsui frowned.

Today is also the fourth update as usual, the rest will be added tomorrow~      (End of this chapter)
