Chapter 161 The Name of the Store Is Not Sweet
"Brother-in-law, you are really amazing!" Liu Wangxue admired sincerely, "You are the best man!"
Qiu Xiangrong smiled with a simple and honest look on his face.
Gu Xuelan felt really uncomfortable listening to the three children of the Tao family telling their stories of the past word by word.
She herself grew up in love, and when she was young, she always found it hard to imagine that there would be parents in the world who did not love their children.
It was not until I became a teacher and came into contact with different types of students and parents that I understood that “happy families are all alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.”
"It's okay, it's all over." Gu Xuelan took Tao Huaxin's hand and patted it.
Tao Huayu carried the health-preserving pot and poured tea for everyone: "The old couple are now completely docile under my brother-in-law's treatment. Apart from pretending to be sick to gain sympathy, they dare not use any other tricks."
What else could they do? Their eldest son hadn’t been home for several years, and their youngest son would ask them for money from time to time. They were facing a situation where they had no money to support themselves in their old age, so they could only count on Qiu Xiangrong.
So they didn't dare to make any more noise, for fear that Qiu Xiangrong would really ignore them in a rage.
In recent years, they have finally faced up to the reality. Although Qiu Xiangrong is usually silent, he is a man of his words and always keeps his word.
The old man was trembling.
"That's all," Gu Xuelan said, "It's a blessing to be able to take care of them in their old age. From now on, you two must live a good life."
"Yes, it will." The couple said together.
Tao Huayu looked at the sky and said, "Why hasn't Lao Xu come yet? We agreed to have tea together."
Liu Wangxue pinched another cookie, and couldn't help wanting to eat it. She said, "He's probably too busy to spare the time. Last time I heard him say that there seemed to be a lot of problems. According to President Du's idea, they have to optimize a lot of content. Some places are not yet accessible with domestic technology, which is quite troublesome."
"Oh my God, it seems that this game will not be playable in the short term." Tao Huayu sighed.
"How long does it usually take to make a game?" Qiu Xiangrong asked.
"It's hard to say. It depends on the type of game and the team." Tao Huayu replied, "It's like decorating your home. If you don't have much money, you can just install plumbing, paint the walls, and buy a few pieces of furniture. But if you want to do a fine decoration and make it luxurious, there is no limit to the amount of money and manpower you can invest."
After hearing this, Qiu Xiangrong and Tao Huaxin understood.
Tao Huayu was full after drinking and eating, so he went to the swing chair to play with the three cats: "It's because their games are popular. They are all exquisite products that are constantly improved. It took almost two years to make a single-player game..."
"Boss Tao, can you turn your praise into monetary power and support us when the time comes?" Xu Qingsong had just arrived at the door.
Tao Huayu spoke faster than he thought: "Spend money? No way!"
"I just said you couldn't come. Come and sit down." Gu Xuelan called him.
Xu Qingsong greeted everyone and sat down next to Liu Wangxue.
There were originally six cups prepared. Liu Wangxue poured him some tea and pushed the cookies in front of him: "Try it, my brother-in-law made it."
Xu Qingsong drank a sip of tea first, then pinched a cookie and ate it, saying, "Brother-in-law, do you know what the highest praise people in our country give to desserts?"
"What is it?" Qiu Xiangrong was a little curious.
Xu Qingsong said: "Not sweet!"
"And it's not greasy!" Tao Huayu replied.
Everyone laughed together.
Gu Xuelan agreed with this evaluation standard and said to Qiu Xiangrong, "Really? I can't stand the ones sold in the market. The ones you made are especially good. I couldn't resist eating several pieces in a row in the kitchen just now."
Qiu Xiangrong was very happy that his food would be liked and praised by everyone. He said, "Okay, I will take care of all the snacks for you guys from now on!"
Tao Huaxin looked at him with a smile: "The tail is up."
Xu Qingsong jokingly suggested: "Brother-in-law, if you have mastered this skill, you can really consider opening a store. In our village or in the town, I have already thought of a name for the store for you, it's called 'Not Sweet'."
Tao Huayu was holding Pengpeng and doing squats. Pengpeng felt uncomfortable in his embrace, twisted his body twice, and then jumped down.
He patted the dog hair stuck on his body, walked over and took a wet tissue to wipe his hands: "This suggestion sounds quite reliable at first glance. Sister, brother-in-law, how about you consider it? I will help you with the decoration and equipment of the store."
Qiu Xiangrong and Tao Huaxin both thought they were joking: "Opening a store is not like shopping. Can you just open it?"
They all saw how difficult it was for Tao Huayu to open a store in the furniture mall, and they helped him a lot. People who have not experienced it will never know the hardships involved.
"It's really not easy." Gu Xuelan also deeply understands this.
When Liu Nanshan first started his fruit shop, he had to travel to many places to find sources of goods. After the shop opened, he worked from dawn to dusk, which was very tiring.
Liu Wangxue felt that their minds were not open: "You can't compare with them. It is really tiring to open a store as big as Boss Tao and Boss Liu. Even if you open it, there won't be that many customers here.
We are talking about a small shop, a little smaller than the cake shop in town, only a few square meters, with a richer variety of items, preferably near a school, specializing in student business. "
Near the school, whether it is a snack stand or a snack bar, as long as the food tastes good and the price is affordable, there will be no problem selling it.
Liu Wangxue still remembers his high school teacher's joke: "It doesn't matter if you really don't want to study. If you can't get into college, you can set up a stall in front of our school to fry dough sticks. When I was buying dough sticks a few days ago, I just talked to a couple. They made 1,800 yuan a day just by selling dough sticks."
"If you think about it this way, it's feasible." Gu Xuelan said to Liu Wangxue, "When our family was in financial difficulty, didn't your father set up a stall in front of the elementary school, selling octopus balls and fried sausages? He would sell them for a while after school every day and could earn two or three hundred yuan."
"How about it, sister, brother-in-law, please think about it." Tao Huayu encouraged, "Think about it and save some life fund for your child."
Qiu Xiangrong was a little tempted by what they said, but he was not sure whether the things he made could really be sold. He exchanged glances with Tao Huaxin and said, "I'll think about it again. I just learned this skill, so I have to be sure before I can sell it."
Since Qiu Xiangrong got to know Liu Wangxue and the others, he has figured out the nature of this group of people - they are a "praise group" together! No matter adults, children or pets, they will praise everyone in front of them. So he thinks that their comments must be filtered.
Tao Huaxin respected Qiu Xiangrong's decision. Things have to be done step by step. You can't think about running just when you have just learned to walk, otherwise you will definitely fall.
Why are there only two chapters?
Because I was so angry watching the Spring Festival Gala that I couldn’t write at all…
What the hell is this DaoDaoLing? The arrangement is really terrible! I only speak for myself: please don't throw away the precious treasures in the rags, thank you!
