Chapter 362 Wanting a Brother
"Then let your father go and try to look for him." Lu Qin's mother said.
"No need. I'll take Erya with me to look for them," Daya said. "My father is also busy at the docks and can't spare any time. I'll go and sound out Shopkeeper Chang first. If they can finally decide, I'll ask my parents to come forward."
She will be the pillar of the family in the future and will have to shoulder the burden for her mother.
"Da Ya has grown up." Lu Qin's mother was relieved and proud. "She is much better than her mother."
When she was fifteen, she was still confused.
He is ignorant and fearless. He took the money and bought Da Ya and Er Ya without thinking about whether he could support them or not.
She was quite brave at that time.
Although it was reckless, it was truly the best decision she had ever made in her life, even better than choosing Xiao Yan.
No matter what others say about husband and wife being lifelong companions, in Lu Qiniang's eyes, no one can be compared with her daughters.
No matter how troublesome a man is, he won’t be able to do that.
"Yes, I'm grown up now, it's time for me to have some rest." Daya said, "Mom, please give us a little brother."
Lu Qiniang blushed and muttered embarrassedly, "What do you need that thing for?"
Look at the silly Hu Rui with a snotty nose, and then look at Liu Jian who stole from his own family. Tsk tsk, raising a son is really like paying back a debt.
"Now that I have a younger sister, I'm greedy and want a younger brother." Daya said with a smile, "Mom, I'll help you take care of your younger brother."
"Hey, kid, why are you saying those things?" Lu Qiniang blushed and changed the subject.
But she always wondered in her heart if there was something wrong with her.
Xiao Yan worked like an old ox every night, but how come all the crops were spread into the saline-alkali land and there were no seedlings?
She wanted to ask Doctor Hu, but was too embarrassed to do so.
Forget it, it’s just a small matter. I’ll deal with it after the shop is set up.
Daya took Erya to find Manager Chang.
"Sister, I'm a little panicked." Before entering the door, Erya secretly said to Daya.
"Don't worry." Daya was calm and composed. "If it works, it works. If it doesn't, we won't lose anything."
"It seems so." Erya straightened her back and followed her elder sister in.
When Manager Chang heard that two young girls were looking for him, he was a little surprised.
However, the shopkeeper believed that harmony brings wealth, and when they met, he smiled and asked the two men what they wanted.
Daya explained the purpose of her visit in a concise and clear manner.
"Ask Chang Hui to be the shopkeeper?" Shopkeeper Chang was obviously surprised. He looked at the two sisters again and shook his head. "He is still young and can't take on the responsibility."
"When you were Chang Hui's age, you were already the shopkeeper," Daya said. "As the saying goes, a disciple is better than his father, and a young phoenix's voice is clearer than an old one. Besides, if we really encounter difficulties, we are neighbors, so can't we ask you for advice?"
The purpose was clearly laid out on the table, and this frankness also made Manager Chang look at him with admiration.
He secretly praised in his heart, this little girl is very generous.
It’s a pity that he is already engaged.
——Manager Chang has already recognized Daya and Erya, and knows their identities.
Including their relationship with Xiao Yan, and Daya being given marriage to Jiang Xuan.
If you want to do business, you must have some sensitivity.
If the shop next door is rented out, you have to find out everything.
Upon inquiry, people were shocked to find out that the place was actually rented by the former General Po Lu, who wanted to open a store selling various kinds of goods.
This guy is a bit of a legend.
However, Shopkeeper Chang thought that as long as everyone did their own business and there was no competition, they could all live in peace.
Unexpectedly, two little girls came to see the shopkeeper.
What's even more incredible is that he was actually somewhat persuaded?
However, an old fox like Manager Chang would naturally not agree immediately. Instead, he said that he would consider it and discuss it with Chang Hui.
From beginning to end, Chang Hui stood behind him, with his head lowered and no words spoken.
"This is a big deal. Don't worry. Our shop is still stocking up." Daya stood up and said, "But what I said to you is final. I can make the decision."
After leaving, Erya said sincerely, "Big sister, thank you for coming to talk. I was speechless in front of Shopkeeper Chang."
"I'm just holding on," Daya said, "This thing may not succeed. Let's see if there are other suitable candidates."
They actually can't get in touch with it, so they can only ask others to introduce them.
The only people who can be trusted are the shopkeepers of familiar shops such as the Yunguo Mansion, the Jiang family, and the Jiang family.
"Is it impossible?" Erya asked, "Why do I feel that this is a good opportunity for them and their son?"
"It's a great opportunity, but Manager Chang is a very cautious person."
Xiao Yan has not been reinstated yet and has been working at the docks where all kinds of people gather. He might offend someone or get involved in gang fights.
When doing business, it is important to maintain good relationships with all parties and avoid getting involved in disputes.
"That's right." Erya said, "It's okay. If it doesn't work out, let Yunting go home and ask. We're hiring him for nothing. If the introduction is successful, we'll give him some silver as a thank you. It's whatever's due. We're not stingy people."
"Okay, that's a good idea."
Erya looked happy, "Of course!"
Meanwhile, Shopkeeper Chang was asking Chang Hui, "Are you willing?"
"Dad, I want to try." Chang Hui whispered.
Manager Chang has trained many apprentices, many of whom are now able to work independently.
Although Chang Hui didn't say anything, he was very envious in his heart.
He also knew that his background was not glorious.
In fact, in many families, the matter of having a concubine is just passed over without anyone mentioning it.
But his stepmother would always remind him and the people around him.
Even though his stepmother is dead now, his legitimate brothers and sisters use the same tactics as his stepmother, ostracizing him and constantly exposing the scars of his identity.
Although Chang Hui never said anything, he was depressed inside and wanted to get rid of the Chang family completely.
He wants to make a living on his own.
The grocery store that was going to be opened next door was built from scratch, and he really wanted to give it a try, support it independently, and build a business that would impress others.
So this invitation was really attractive to him.
However, he was of a calm temperament, so he did not show much emotion at this moment.
"You only think about the bright side. What if things don't work out?" Shopkeeper Chang sighed. "I'm not very familiar with this business. After all, for the past ten years, I've only been in charge of the silver shop..."
If we fail to do it, wouldn't that just make things worse and lead to ridicule?
In particular, he also wanted to help Chang Hui find a marriage partner. He didn't ask for icing on the cake, but at least he didn't want to give others the opportunity to take advantage of him.
"Dad, please let me try." Chang Hui said firmly, "I'm not in a hurry to get married. You should arrange my sister's marriage first."
Is being a concubine a good reputation?
He doesn't want to be picked and chosen when talking about marriage.
He hopes to achieve something and make people look at him with admiration.
"Then I'll go talk to them again."
