"Go and find out immediately what kind of background that new employer has."
At this moment, Chen Yushan had calmed down. No matter what, he still had the winery, and he had earned a lot of money these days! As for the pastry shop, it was only because of his unwillingness to accept defeat!
Qin San Niang wasn't worried about these things; even if she were, it wouldn't make a difference. Since she planned to make money, she would inevitably have to enter the business world, which would inevitably lead to open and covert struggles. She already knew most of Chen Yushan, while he knew nothing about her! Who was afraid of who!
Nowadays, all she can think about is how to develop and expand Siji Pastry Shop, which is now called "Ruyi Pastry Shop". She also wants to open a tavern and make the liquor business bigger and stronger!
This matter required a lot of investment, so she set her sights on He Yingyuan. Others might not know, but she certainly did—he was a hidden sugar daddy!
As for why she insisted on being tied to He Yingyuan, it was because Qin Sanniang had no other choice!
She thought about it for half the night, realizing that her second child was still a long way from making a name for himself! It would take at least seven or eight years of these exams, and that would be if everything went smoothly! As a mother, she didn't want to pressure or control her child's life.
However, He Xiucai was very close to making a name for himself, and with his current status as a Xiucai, even the county magistrate would have to give him some face! Of course, he was a very shrewd and calculating person, to put it simply, he was extremely clever and was the best partner he could find at the moment.
Actually, with her current financial resources, she doesn't necessarily need a partner, but going it alone is ultimately powerless, and she can't possibly do everything perfectly! With He Xiucai, it's different. He is a local and is very familiar with the law, local customs and traditions, and even the laws of Dasheng.
Upon hearing her purpose, He Yingyuan understood perfectly. This matter would be entirely beneficial to him, so he readily agreed!
However, he was not the kind of person who was greedy. The two of them split the expenses equally, but since the recipe belonged to Qin San Niang, He Yingyuan only took 30% of the profit.
With the investment settled, the brewing process could begin, and the search for a suitable shop also needed to be launched immediately.
Before that, the pastry shop needs to be arranged.
Although the pastry shop is still operating normally, with Xiao Wu, who is half the manager, and a cook gone, there is inevitably a shortage of staff. When Mu Chun came last time, I also reported this matter to her.
After thinking for a moment, Qin San Niang went to Puji Hall with Da Wa, intending to see if she could find a suitable candidate.
Upon hearing Qin San Niang's purpose, Guo Er frowned and pondered for a moment. "Master, most of the people we take in at our charity are women and children. As for the accountant you mentioned, I'm afraid they are not suitable."
The only literate woman, Yu Niang, was once a scholar's wife, but at that time, it was not advisable for women to show their faces in public.
After thinking about it, Qin San Niang realized that this was indeed the case, so she decided to look elsewhere.
"Since you're here, why don't you meet everyone? The people in the hall are all grateful for your kindness, and have been wanting to thank you for a long time!" Guo Er said.
These days, Pujitang has gotten back on track and established new rules. Because the system is reasonable and the food and lodging conditions are good, everyone feels that they have met a great benefactor. They are all smiles every day and wish they could set up a longevity tablet for Qin Sanniang.
Qin San Niang nodded, "Of course I want to get to know them all."
After a short while, everyone stood in the courtyard. Qin San Niang stood at the front, looking at them with a smile. Although they were still somewhat thin and pale, they were in good spirits, and although their clothes were patched, they were clean. The children's faces were also filled with happiness; they had never imagined they could live such a peaceful life.
"This is our Pujitang owner, Madam Qin!" Guo Er introduced loudly. Many people had seen her when Chen Xiaoyun caused trouble last time, but many more people had come in these past few days, and these people did not recognize her.
"Hello, boss!" they all said in unison, their accents slightly different.
Qin San Niang nodded and smiled, "From today onwards, our charity is one family. I hope everyone can be united and loving and live a good life."
Furthermore, although we are a charitable organization, we are not entirely charitable. I hope we can all do what we can to help the organization operate normally. As you all probably know, why do other charitable organizations close down after a short time? It's because the people in those organizations rely entirely on handouts! As the saying goes, "If you rely on a mountain, it will crumble; if you rely on a tree, it will fall." Only when we are strong and capable can our charitable organization continue to operate.
Currently, charitable organizations are entirely non-profit organizations. Many homeless people flock to these organizations only to seek temporary shelter, going through the motions day by day. When the charitable organizations can no longer bear the heavy burden, that's when they will become homeless again.
Therefore, many large charitable organizations were jointly run by the local government and chambers of commerce. In most cases, they were just for show, to gain a reputation for "benefiting the people." Whether the refugees were eating well, dressed warmly, or what would happen to them in the future was completely outside their consideration.
Hearing her say this, everyone looked at each other in surprise, but they understood the general meaning: the owner planned to keep Pujitang open! This was good news!
Along their journey, many of them had received kindness from charitable organizations, and quite a few had been taken in by them before the organizations closed down, forcing them to resume their journeys. Therefore, when they first arrived at Pujitang, most were hoping for a few days' worth of food, knowing they might soon be back on the streets!
For these refugees, just having enough to eat is enough! As for making money, that's out of the question. These days, wealthy people only hire local, registered citizens, afraid of hiring those notorious refugees with murder on their hands.
On the journey of fleeing, it is difficult to complete the journey alone unless one has superb martial arts skills or outstanding wisdom. Moreover, in order to survive, fights, brawls, and even murder and robbery are inevitable. Many refugees have blood on their hands! This alone is enough to frighten the wealthy households! Therefore, even though the refugees ask for much less wages, they are unwilling to hire refugees to work.
Qin San Niang, however, was not afraid. She herself came from a refugee background and deeply understood the many ways in which people were not in control of their own lives. As long as someone was kind-hearted and willing to work hard with her, she wouldn't care about things that the government wouldn't pursue.
Among the crowd, people began to whisper among themselves. A particularly straightforward woman stepped forward hesitantly and asked, "Master, as long as we can have enough to eat and live a stable life, we are not afraid of hardship or fatigue! It's just that it's hard for us to find work outside. The wealthy families don't want us!"
Everyone nodded in agreement. They didn't want to just eat for free here every day. None of them were seventy or eighty years old. In the past, they were all hardworking people who couldn't sit still all day long.
