Chapter 153 Counterattack
After Guo Yu understood Jiang Tangtang's meaning, he said carefully: "Don't worry, Sister Jiang, I will definitely get things done!"
"Go!" Jiang Tangtang rubbed his temples and began to think of ways to solve the problem of staff shortage in the cake shop.
Now that she knew the Yang family's plan, she naturally would not go to the dental clinic to buy people again.
But if you don't go to the dental clinic to hire people, it may not be safe to recruit people from outside.
After all, everyone is watching the big piece of fat meat that is the cake shop. Who knows if the person recruited here has any ulterior motives.
"But what difficulties have you encountered?" Just when Jiang Tangtang was frowning, Lu Shiyan walked in wearing a bloody shirt.
Jiang Tangtang was shocked when she saw his appearance. She no longer cared about the cake shop and hurried to check his injuries. "Why is there so much blood? Are you seriously injured?"
"It's not my blood, it's someone else's. I'm fine, don't worry. But you, what are you thinking about? Your brows are furrowed."
Lu Shiyan was afraid of scaring her, so he planned to secretly go back to the inner room to get a change of clothes. However, he didn't expect her to come in. Seeing her frowning and looking like she was worried, he couldn't help but speak out.
Hearing that he was not injured, Jiang Tangtang breathed a sigh of relief, found him some clothes and said, "Go take a shower first. We'll talk after you change your clothes!"
Jiang Tangtang didn't want to bother him with this kind of thing, but when Lu Shiyan came back from taking a shower, he pestered her and insisted that she tell him.
Jiang Tangtang had no choice but to tell him what had happened in the shop recently and the worries in her heart.
Lu Shiyan laughed after hearing this and said, "Is this worth worrying about? I have quite a few people who need resettlement. If you don't mind, you can use it. I can't guarantee anything else, but at least I can trust it."
After several months of covert campaigning, he now has nearly a thousand followers.
If you want people to trust you and do things for you, it's not enough to just promise something, you have to be practical.
Especially in Raoying County, which has long been corrupt, no matter how hard the soldiers fight, the clothes they wear are always the worst.
Soldiers can't even take care of themselves, so it's even harder for their families.
He originally planned to find a way to accommodate the families of these soldiers.
Now that my wife needs help, isn’t this a good thing that kills two birds with one stone?
When Lu Shiyan told Jiang Tangtang about this, Jiang Tangtang was overjoyed. Since they were family members of Lu Shiyan's soldiers, they were considered trusted and could be used with confidence.
As for the skill of making pastries, all we need to do is select some people who are talented in cooking and teach them.
Lu Shiyan rested at home for one night, and sent someone over the next day to ask Jiang Tangtang to choose.
This arrangement immediately solved the manpower problem that Jiang Tangtang had been worried about.
Seeing that there were still plenty of people, Jiang Tangtang had a new idea.
Why not develop the cake shop on a large scale?
*
After Zhang Lu's incident, Yang Changsheng looked forward to it, waiting for Jiang Tangtang to go to the dental clinic to buy someone.
Unexpectedly, before he could receive the news that his family members had been sent to the cake shop, Yang's father came over in a rage.
"Is what people say outside true? You bastard, how could you have the heart to do that to me?" Father Yang raised his crutch and was about to hit Yang Changsheng.
Yang Changsheng dodged while shouting innocently, "Dad, what's the matter? I'm already such a grown man, and you still swing a stick at me like you did when I was a child. Do I have no shame?"
Father Yang gnashed his teeth and said, "You still have some shame? If you knew how to have shame, would you cheat on your third brother? You evil beast! I'll beat you to death!"
Yang Changsheng felt a pang of fear in his heart, but he forced himself to remain calm and said, "Dad, where did you hear all this nonsense? How could I possibly do such a thing? I've taken care of my brothers over the years. Others don't know, but don't you?"
"Yes! He even took care of her in bed." Father Yang was furious and hit Yang Changsheng hard on the back with a stick. "You just took advantage of your third brother's brain damage and secretly had an affair with his wife..."
When Yang Changsheng's scandal spread to every corner of Raoying County, Nie Xiuying's condition suddenly improved.
Although Nie Xiuying is still unable to get out of bed and walk, she can speak clearly and is in much better spirits.
The first thing Nie Xiuying did after she found that she could speak clearly was to quietly call her two sons over.
After Nie Xiuying married Yang Changsheng, she gave birth to five children, including three daughters and two sons.
Their eldest son, now eighteen, had already been learning business from the couple. Their youngest son, thirteen, was not planning to go into business, so they sent him to a college to study, intending for him to take the imperial examinations.
Nie Xiuying grabbed her two sons' hands, her face filled with hatred. "Do you know how your mother became like this?"
She trembled as she spoke, "This is all your father's fault! He had a mistress outside, and she gave birth to several children. Mother was worried that the mistress's son would rob you two brothers of your wealth in the future, so she asked your father to hand over the business to me. Your father was unhappy, so he had someone attack my carriage..."
By the end of her speech, Nie Xiuying was sobbing uncontrollably.
She and Yang Changsheng had used such dirty tricks to harm many people, but when it happened to her, she realized how horrible it was.
"Your mother almost died! You must remember to avenge her!"
If they had not heard the rumors outside first, Yang Dalang and Yang Erlang would never believe that their father was such a person.
But with the rumors outside first and Nie Xiuying's words later, how could the two of them not believe it?
Yang Dalang squeezed Nie Xiuying's hand tightly and said, "Don't worry, mother. I will never let the Yang family's wealth be taken away by some bastard outside."
He had long been dissatisfied with his family's care for his second and third uncles. Now that he knew the truth, he couldn't help but start to doubt whether his father took care of his second and third uncles out of family affection or for those dirty reasons.
Is it true that my second uncle’s child is also like my third uncle’s, and is actually his father’s child?
Not only Yang Dalang thought so, but Yang Changlin, the second son of the Yang family, also thought so.
His wife died of complications during childbirth, and he couldn't ask her about it, so he could only call his children over.
In the past, Yang Changlin didn’t think there was anything wrong with his children looking like their eldest brother.
But ever since he heard the rumors outside, Yang Changming began to have doubts in his heart, and the more he looked at his sons, the more he felt something was wrong.
Especially when he saw his youngest son laughing, he looked exactly like his eldest brother when he was little. Yang Changlin was so angry that he kicked his youngest son and went to find Yang Changsheng to settle the score.
Just when the Yang family was in chaos, the cake shop launched a new product.
In addition to glutinous rice balls, coconut milk jelly, double skin milk, etc., a series of drinks have also been launched.
Rose tea, jasmine tea, caramel milk tea, mango sago coconut milk tea, etc., more than a dozen drinks with different flavors have been launched in succession.
It was approaching early summer and the temperature in Raoying County continued to rise. Customers who came to buy cakes were curious and bought a cup after hearing the recommendation from the waiter in the shop.
As a result, after drinking it, I became addicted.
Gradually, the cake shop became the favorite place for the ladies and young ladies in Raoying County.
Not long after the cake shop launched its new products, Jiang Tangtang opened three more branches in the county.
These three branches are different from the grandeur of the cake shop. Each of these three branches only has a small shop and there is no place to sit inside.
Apart from the fact that these three branches are small and have no seating, the things they sell are cheap. The good-looking mung bean cakes, red bean cakes, etc. are cheaper than those in other shops.
Once the Gaosuguan branch opened, the Yang family's Caizhizhai completely lost business. Not only was it unable to make money, it was actually losing money. To stem the losses, the Yang family had no choice but to temporarily close Caizhizhai.
From then on, the bakery became the largest bakery in Raoying County, attracting consumers from all walks of life.
