Qiao Wanyue said, "It's best to have less contact between business and politics."
He was afraid of dragging Lu Yunzhou down.
Grandma Liang scoffed, "If you drag him down, it's because he's incompetent. A man's role is to protect a woman from the wind and rain. If he's useless, you should dump him as soon as possible."
Qiao Wanyue twitched her lips.
It hasn't come to that.
Grandma Liang said, "Don't worry, this old woman will take care of it for you."
She patted her chest confidently.
Qiao Wanyue wasn't worried. She was just wondering whether to ask Wei Kangjian or Wen Song first. These two people definitely had some connections and could definitely handle it, it would just be a bit difficult.
It's easier to open up residences in the north and south.
"No need." She didn't want to owe the Liang family a favor for the time being.
Grandma Liang pretended not to hear her refusal. Although the Liang family was involved in politics, their collateral relatives were in business. Obtaining a license was a piece of cake for her, but there was no need to say this to Qiao Wanyue.
The next day, the old lady came to the door with the permit.
Qiao Wanyue was about to call Wei Kangjian when she was stunned when she saw the license.
Is this the power of money?
She knew the Liang family had some influence, but to get a license so quickly was truly astonishing.
She has no reason to refuse something that's offered to her.
I owe them a huge favor.
Grandma Liang came even more frequently, and even helped her choose a site.
Unpaid labor.
Late February
Qiao Wanyue's grocery store opened. She chose a location in the north of the city with the highest foot traffic, and she had studied the shelves and product categories of department stores beforehand.
The goods are all from Xiahe Village and the county town; there are all kinds, including food, drinks, and some medicinal herbs.
But there were no clothes.
Clothing was a blind spot for Qiao Wanyue. In her previous life, she made her fortune in a braised meat shop and restaurant. After being reborn, she relied on her memories from her previous life to maximize her advantages.
As for whether or not to get involved in the clothing industry.
She doesn't have that plan right now.
After all, with a genius like Ouyang Qing around, she was just copying others' ideas. It would be better for her to focus on her own job. As for opening a clothing store, she planned to wait until she met the right person.
Perhaps he will collaborate with Ouyang Qing later.
But that's a story for another time.
On the opening day, Qiao Wanyue, along with her newly recruited store manager, greeted people at the door.
The new store manager is a young man, not very old, but very shrewd. He was recommended by Aunt Xie, and after vetting him, Qiao Wanyue thought he was a good person and handed the store over to him.
"Wanyue, congratulations."
Grandma Liang arrived carrying a flower basket.
Qiao Wanyue picked up the flower basket, put it aside, and naturally took her hand. "Take a look and see if there's anything you want here. I'll have someone send it over to you." She and Old Madam Liang had chosen the location of this shop together.
The old lady was very kind, and Qiao Wanyue got used to her often appearing in front of her.
Grandma Liang wasn't going to stand on ceremony. "Give us some dried fish, medicinal herbs, and melon seeds, and send them to the Liang family."
