A noble嫡女 (legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official) is framed and falls to the borderlands, losing her memory and becoming a farmer's wife. Su Nanxi arrives with a space (a mystical ...
The Qin and Zhao families were quite talented in cooking; after watching once and practicing once, they were able to do it quite well.
Needless to say, the Mo family added mixed fried rice the next day, and those who tried it came back for an extra serving after they knew how good it was.
The food smelled amazing, there was plenty of food, and the rice was delicious!
The workers went back and spread the word, and many people found out. They rushed to buy it, and each person bought two portions – one for breakfast and one for lunch, which was just right.
The Mo family also reserved some for the stewards there, so they could try something new.
Don't ask why the Mo family isn't bullied when they sell breakfast there; they've already established good relationships with everyone.
As the saying goes, "He who takes a bribe is bound to do something for you," meaning that if you accept a favor, you have to do something in return to feel at ease.
The four members of the breakfast group finally understood why the mute girl had asked them to make arrangements back then; there was a lot more to it than met the eye!
Their breakfast stall, run by four people, was doing well, which naturally attracted the envy of their competitors. There were many people who wanted to sabotage it behind their backs. However, with someone from above protecting them, things were different. The others weren't stupid; they understood immediately and didn't dare to make any rash moves.
Since Mo's breakfast stall became popular, seeing the potential for profit, many breakfast stalls have sprung up, all imitating Mo's breakfast, but no matter how they imitate, they can't replicate Mo's taste.
However, this still couldn't stop the pace of imitation. Whatever new product Mo's family released, someone else would release a similar one the very next day. They chased each other, daring to try new things, and becoming more courageous with each setback!
After the Mo family introduced their mixed fried rice, nearby stalls craned their necks to look, and some even secretly sent people to buy a serving and study it in secret.
Judging by this trend, it's safe to say that you'll see many different kinds of fried rice restaurants appearing the next day.
This was beyond the Mo family's control. After the four returned, they happily told everyone that the mixed fried rice was in high demand!
The time I get back is about the same as usual, so it's clear that this fried rice didn't affect the other breakfast items at all; you could say they complement each other!
Su Nanxi wasn't surprised. "Ahem, adding some seasoning will make it taste much better!" she thought. "It all comes down to the ingredients!"
She took the baby up the mountain, dug up a lot of good stuff, released the chickens and ducks, and had a great harvest.
Just as the Mo family was having dinner, the village chief arrived with his eldest son, Liu Yenan. As expected, the two were invited to stay for the meal.
Mo Jiating was grateful to Liu Yenan for standing up for Su Nanxi and the child, so regardless of whether they had eaten or not, they were forced to sit down and eat.
Unable to refuse, the two picked up their bowls and chopsticks. They hadn't eaten much at home either and were eager to come to the Mo family's house.
The two were overjoyed to eat such delicious food at the Mo family's house. Oh dear! They got to freeload another meal! There was so much meat!
After they had eaten almost all, Village Chief Liu finally revealed his purpose: "It's like this, a new shop specializing in rice noodles opened in town, and it's been very popular since it opened. Ye Nan and I went to eat there once, and it was indeed delicious, with a particularly fresh and flavorful taste. So we inquired about it and heard that the noodle shop can be franchised, allowing you to open the same shop in other places! Even the taste will be the same! Ye Nan wants to franchise one; all he has to do is pay the franchise fee."
Old Mo was a little confused. "What is a franchise fee?"
Village Chief Liu chuckled, "Actually, we were a bit confused too, not entirely clear on the details. Basically, if we want to open a shop like this, we have to pay a fee, and they'll teach us how to cook rice noodles, what ingredients to use, and even how to run the shop. I find it quite novel; I've never seen anything like it before, and I'm a little apprehensive. That's why we came to ask you, is it feasible?"
The Mo family was also completely baffled. How were they supposed to know if it was feasible? This was the first time they had ever heard of it, and they had never seen anything like it before!
But this does not include Su Nanxi.
The idea of joining was Su Nanxi's idea, so of course she knew what was going on. This was quite common in modern times and not unusual.
Village Chief Liu probably felt that since the rice noodles originated from the Mo family, their ideas should be more reliable and forward-looking, and they could definitely offer some suggestions on whether it was feasible.
That's right. In the end, Village Chief Liu turned his gaze to Su Nanxi. What he ultimately wanted to hear was Su Nanxi's opinion.
The Mo family seemed to feel the same way; they all eventually looked to Su Nanxi as if she were their pillar of support, capable of making decisions.
Su Nanxi took Mo Qinghe's hand and wrote only one word: "Okay".
Mo Qinghe conveyed her meaning, "The mute woman said it can be done."
Upon hearing Mo Qinghe's words, Village Chief Liu and Liu Yenan exchanged a glance, as if they had received some kind of confirmation, and became excited.
Mo Qinghe added, "You should first find out if you can handle it. Also, opening a shop requires choosing a location and working capital, so you need to think it through carefully."
Village Chief Liu smiled and said, "That's right, that's right, we definitely need to understand these things clearly. Ye Nan is eager to start a small business, and I can't stop him. This time, he's set his sights on the rice noodle business. I'm thinking, the franchise fee isn't too expensive, so let's give it a try! I've been observing for several days, and it's incredibly popular! The store doesn't even have any special offers to attract people, yet many people are still scrambling to eat there. It should be feasible!"
Liu Yenan's eyes were full of excitement. "I don't know why, but I just feel that this business is definitely going to work! I just want to give it a try. It doesn't need to be a big storefront, and the amount of money required isn't too much. It's much better than what I did before."
Grandma Mo nodded, "Then let's give it a try. How will we know if it will work if we don't try? Our Mo family is the same way. Nobody knows if we can make money, but good things are never afraid of not liking them. If we keep doing it, we will reap the rewards!"
Boss Mo also agreed to give it a try, saying, "You know how to make rice noodles yourselves, so you don't have to worry about the raw materials. The rest isn't a big problem either. Once you've thought it through, find a small shop to start. If the business grows, you can move to a larger shop later."
Mo Lao Er chimed in, "Yes, you should do it as soon as possible, otherwise others will have chosen the location and you'll have to go to a much farther place."
Upon hearing this, Village Chief Liu and Liu Yenan felt it made a lot of sense and decided to find out more about it in a little while and try to make a decision within the next day or two.
After seeing off Village Chief Liu and his son, Old Mo sighed, "If only we could open a shop in town! We wouldn't have to work so hard, and we could make and sell even more breakfast items!"
Others who heard this shared the same sentiment, but it couldn't be done yet because once the houses were built, the money was almost gone. They needed to earn money first and make plans when things were more relaxed.
Grandma Mo was very optimistic, "That day will definitely come. If everyone works hard, it won't be long before we can open a small shop in town!"
Mo Yunmei's eyes lit up upon hearing this, "Mother! Give me a shop then!"
