Ge Yan showed the account book in her hand to Jiang Wanyan. There were also records on the computer, but she was used to keeping a handwritten copy.
It would be nice if someone would take a look into the dessert shop, but it is unlikely that they would come in.
No one buys them, and some of them need to be made new after being stored for a long time, so a lot of money is wasted on materials alone.
Later, when I saw that no one came in, I simply gave up.
Jiang Wanyan looked at the desserts on the shelf. There weren't many, and none of them looked as good as the ones she made.
Jiang Wanyan asked, "Who did this?"
Liu Yao whispered, "We did this together."
Ge Yan sighed and said, "I was just helping out on the side. She was the one who did most of the work."
Jiang Wanyan unexpectedly asked Liu Yao: "Can you also make desserts?"
"I did it all on my own," Liu Yao said with her head down, feeling guilty. "I'm sorry, I did a lot of bad things."
Liu Yao started cooking when she was very young. Ordinary dishes were a piece of cake for her, but it was her first time making desserts. It took her a lot of time just to learn how to use the oven.
Even though she did her homework, she still made some mistakes.
"What is there to apologize for? I can't thank you enough." Jiang Wanyan's eyes curved into a smile. She was speaking the truth. It had been so long, but she still hadn't found a suitable pastry chef.
If Liu Yao could learn it, she would have less worries.
Seeing Jiang Wanyan looking at Liu Yao with golden eyes, Ge Yan was obviously very satisfied with Liu Yao. She held back her anger and said, "Boss, Yaoyao can stay, but you have to solve the problem of no one coming."
No matter how delicious the desserts or service are, without customers, everything is in vain.
Jiang Wanyan was distressed. The people here had been superstitious for so many years, and she had no way to change their minds for the time being.
Is it possible to sneak into their house late at night when they are sleeping and whisper in their ears: There are no ghosts in the bun shop, come and take a look.
Jiang Wanyan shook her head. Only a crazy person would do such a thing.
Since it is superstitious, use superstitious methods to break the superstition.
Jiang Wanyan asked, "Do you know where there are people like witches?"
Ge Yan asked uncertainly, "Is it really okay to do this?"
Jiang Wanyan couldn't say: "I can't think of any other way."
Ge Yan had some concerns and felt that this was not a good idea, but she really couldn't think of any other solution.
Liu Yao said, "I have an idea."
Liu Yao knew what had happened here, but she was not afraid at all. Nothing was more terrifying than being poor.
Jiang Wanyan asked curiously, "What ideas do you have? Tell me about it."
"We don't necessarily need to find people to perform rituals, we can find people to act out plays and make them feel that this is a blessed place."
If you believe in ghosts, you will naturally believe in God.
Liu Yao explained, "If we find someone to perform a ritual, and they also say there's a ghost here, we won't be able to explain it clearly."
Jiang Wanyan nodded. Liu Yao was right. There were certain risks in inviting a fortune teller, but it was different when it came to hiring an actor. She had the final say on how things would develop.
"Okay, then let's find someone to play the role," Jiang Wanyan asked Liu Yao, "Do you know anyone?"
Liu Yao shook her head embarrassedly. She was usually either in school or working, and had very few friends, let alone friends who could act.
"I know someone," Ge Yan said hesitantly when she saw Jiang Wanyan looking at her, "You know this person too, but I don't know if you can trust him."
"I know him? Who?"
Jiang Wanyan was curious. She couldn't imagine who she knew was an actor.
"Sheng Shanshan, she's studying acting."
Jiang Wanyan was stunned. Her landlord was an actor?
"It's not surprising that you didn't know. She started taking acting jobs when she was in college. After graduation, she didn't take any more roles. Instead, she came back here."
"Why don't you act anymore?"
Ge Yan shook her head and said, "I'm not really sure about that. She hasn't said why she doesn't want to act anymore. If you want help, you can consider her."
"Okay, I'll go find her tomorrow."
Jiang Wanyan called Liu Yao and said, "Come with me, I will teach you some simple techniques for making desserts."
Liu Yao excitedly followed Jiang Wanyan into the kitchen.
Liu Yao is very smart. She understood Jiang Wanyan's explanation after she only explained it once, and she could even apply it to other situations.
Jiang Wanyan said with satisfaction: "If you are willing, you can come here and be a pastry chef."
Liu Yao said in surprise: "But I don't have a certificate."
"Take the exam slowly. After you pass it next year, I'll pay you a full-time salary during the summer vacation."
Liu Yao was overjoyed. If she was offered a full-time salary, she wouldn't have to worry about her university tuition.
"If you have experience, it will be much easier to find a part-time job at a university, but the prerequisite is that you go to a good university. A good university not only allows you to learn a lot, but also provides a lot of help to students."
“I will get into a good university.”
Liu Yao said seriously that although her uncle always said that she had poor grades and could not get into university, how would she know if she didn't try?
This is her last year. Whether she can go to a good university, get a good job, and make her grandmother happy depends on this year.
Liu Yao glanced at the time and said quickly, "Then I'll go back first."
She can also read a book and memorize some words before going to bed.
"Go ahead, be careful on the road, and don't be in a hurry."
Watching Liu Yao leave, Jiang Wanyan really wanted to give Liu Yao the money directly, but Liu Yao was a thoughtful child. If she could make money by herself, she would prefer to make money by herself so that she could feel at ease using it.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ge Yan hugged the sleeping Xinxin and whispered to Jiang Wanyan, "I'm leaving too."
"Well, come on, I'll lock the door."
On the way back, Jiang Wanyan suddenly received a call from Chu Qing'er.
Jiang Wanyan didn't know how her new number got out. She didn't hesitate, picked up the phone, and pretended not to know it was her number.
"Hello, who are you?"
"It's me," Chu Qing'er asked proudly, "You didn't expect it to be me, did you?"
"Who are you? You must have the wrong number."
Jiang Wanyan hung up the phone after she finished speaking. Chu Qing'er on the other end heard the busy tone and jumped in anger.
"This bitch! What are you pretending for!"
Chu Qing'er was furious. How could Jiang Wanyan not recognize her voice? Although she was angry, she still called again.
Jiang Wanyan listened to the phone ringing for a long time, and only answered it when the call was about to be automatically hung up.
“Nothing.”
"Jiang Wanyan!" Chu Qing'er roared, unable to bear it any longer. "Just try and hang up on me!"
Of course Jiang Wanyan dared to hang up on her, but she didn't. If she had hung up again, Chu Qing'er might not have called.
She also wanted to hear what funny things Chu Qing'er had to say.
"I don't have anything to say to you, right? What's wrong? Does He Ming no longer want you? Or has He Ming fallen for a new mistress, and you came to me for help?"
"Jiang Wanyan! You can't spit out ivory! Brother Ming and I are doing well, and the one he has always loved is me."
Jiang Wanyan said calmly, "Congratulations."
Chu Qing'er felt that the words of congratulations were mocking.
