Qiao Zhizhi covered her mouth and laughed: "They earned more than a million taels. Lian'er also bought a four-courtyard house with a large garden and a pond, which cost three hundred thousand taels."
The Qiao family thought they had misheard and were all in a state of shock.
They thought they were already quite resilient to this kind of situation, but when they heard the number, it still felt unreal.
But for Lian'er, this was absolutely true.
It took everyone a while to come to their senses; their hearts were pounding so fast they could hardly feel anything.
This is a number that excites people just by thinking about it. They thought it would take the Qiao family at least twenty years, or at least ten years, to earn that amount.
"Alright, when the time comes, everyone should get to work and plant medicinal herbs all over the mountains and fields," said Qiao Laosan.
Follow Lian'er to do great things and make big money.
"I really want to see what the capital is like," Da Meng asked curiously.
"Then let's go together and see the Qiao family's home in the capital." Before setting off, Qiao Lian'er had already instructed the cook to prepare a large and sumptuous feast for her uncles and brothers that evening.
Da Cheng: "But in that case, the army will be without a leader."
"Simple, just seal off a few soldiers," Qiao Lian'er said casually.
Now that the men of the Qiao family are captains, they can decide the candidates for the positions below them.
"We've traveled thousands of miles in a month. It's been tough, but we've already carefully screened those with good endurance and composure. Considering their usual performance, you can decide what to do next."
Boss Qiao slapped his forehead and immediately went to do it. Why wasn't his brain even half as quick as Lian'er's?
Qiao Laosan shook his head and smiled, feeling utterly impressed.
Then she mentioned that Qiao Zhizhi had specially hired a teacher to teach her to draw, and also to teach her to recognize characters.
“There are several talented female painters in the capital, and that’s my dream,” Qiao Zhizhi said.
Everyone encouraged her.
Qiao Lian'er noticed that Lu Shi's smile was somewhat unnatural, making her seem out of place among them.
She immediately understood: everyone wants to be a more valuable person, and no one wants to be someone who only knows how to do household chores.
Especially now that the Qiao family has plenty of money to hire servants, the women in the family will no longer have to do these things.
They are suited to a better platform to showcase their talents.
"Third Aunt, I'm going back to open a big shop under your name, selling nuts. You'll be the boss, and you can keep half of the profits and give me the other half."
Madam Lü was surprised. She hadn't expected that as soon as she arrived in the capital, she would become the owner of a large shop. Just now, she had been feeling inferior, thinking that she had no other skills and was getting old, and she didn't know what to learn. Unlike Zhizhi, who had discovered her talent and was full of fighting spirit.
“Lian’er—” Lu’s eyes burned with tears.
"Third Aunt, we're all family, don't be so polite. Besides, you're already skilled at managing the shop and attracting customers, so I think this should suit you."
"Yes, I will definitely do my job well and live up to your expectations."
"However, the quality of the nuts is only average, so they are sold to customers with average means. I, on the other hand, cater to high-end customers, which allows me to maximize profits."
What did those nobles eat? They ate things that ordinary people couldn't afford, or even if ordinary people could afford them, they couldn't experience the superior quality they enjoyed.
"As you say, Lian'er's arrangement is the best." Madam Lü held Qiao Lian'er's hand, filled with gratitude.
After Qiao Laoda and Qiao Laosan selected their leaders and gave them instructions, the Qiao family members all went to the capital.
