"I like Ms. Zhang's voice. It's lucky that this song found such a suitable singer," Liu Zi concluded.
The two parties then signed an authorization agreement.
As Liu Zi's fame grows, she has decided to stop selling songs.
Although a one-time buyout brings in more money, in the long run, it still results in significant losses.
Both parties were very satisfied, and Zhang Shaohan directly instructed her agent to give Liu Zi an additional red envelope of 30,000 yuan.
Liu Zi was somewhat surprised, but she gladly accepted it.
The 30,000 yuan was immediately given by Liu Zi to Foreman Wang; she couldn't let him advance money for the house renovation for no reason.
Over the past two or three days, Liu Zi and Wang Jian sold two more songs. She had specially selected the buyers and the songs, and she also tried to offer the highest possible prices.
After paying the taxes, the net income was 230,000 yuan.
This is where the convenience of Liu Zi registering a studio becomes apparent: with income, expenses can be offset.
First, get yourself a rental agreement for the house, then buy some fixed assets, like tables, chairs, and benches.
She could also ask Uncle Wang for an invoice for the renovation costs. Uncle Wang kept asking her why.
He usually only issues invoices when he undertakes projects for the government or enterprises. Could it be that Liu Zi has started her own company?
Liu Zi smiled and explained it to him. Foreman Wang praised Liu Zi for her ability and Liu Daqiang for his good fortune.
When Liu's parents heard that their daughter had bought a house near the overpass, they came to see it. They were happy but also worried.
I'm happy that my daughter can finally settle down, but I'm worried about how much money she owes.
Liu Zi also had her own considerations. She specifically called her parents and asked them to keep an eye on the construction site in Beijing.
It's almost Chinese New Year, and she still has to finish her manuscript, so she won't be coming for now.
Knowing that his daughter was in trouble, and that Liu Zi had successfully obtained a loan from the bank, which alleviated her immediate crisis, Liu's father canceled his business trip and instead helped his daughter keep an eye on the construction site.
Although the contractor was a friend, Liu Daqiang still felt that there needed to be someone from his own family on the construction site to keep things in order, so he took on the task without hesitation.
Liu Zi later spoke with her mother on the phone and heard her mother complain that her father was never home, and even when he was home, he would go into her room and write and draw by the lamp on the table.
Liu Zi was very happy to hear this, as long as her father didn't get the idea that he was going on a business trip to earn overtime pay.
Liu Zi has been quite busy these past two days, researching precise recipes for various beverages.
In her previous life, she frequently traveled between Hong Kong and the mainland and was very fond of the Hong Kong-style tea restaurant culture.
She was planning to open a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant in Beijing with her friends, but unexpectedly, Zhao Qian was discovered to have cheated on her first, and then he threw a tantrum and acted unreasonably in their divorce, which distracted her from all her energy.
In the end, she had no choice but to apologize to her friend and withdraw from the collaboration.
Now she can take out the improved desserts that she and her friends researched back then, and pick a few simple and easy-to-make ones to sell in the store.
Examples include French toast, egg tarts, pineapple buns, cheese toast, milk tea, egg waffles, etc.
Liu Zi plans to offer two or three different desserts every day of the week, which will surely taste delicious when paired with hot or cold drinks.
Of course, Liu Zi will also prepare some down-to-earth items, such as fried starch sausages, chicken skewers, and grilled sausages.
Liu Zi would not miss out on these popular street foods that would later dominate night markets.
The next step is to find suppliers.
At this time, the supply of all kinds of goods in the capital was very abundant. Except for a very few items that required her to make by hand, she could get all the rest of the goods.
As for the handicrafts, Liu Zi initially planned to have Aunt Zhang do them, and then find other people to help if the quantity increased later.
Liu Zi went to the Western food market area and spent a lot of money to buy a German-imported commercial oven. This thing cost her several thousand yuan, which was quite expensive.
Besides the oven strapped to the back, there were also various brands of milk powder, cheese, cream...
As for the cups, Liu Zi even went to a plastic factory to order some nice-looking cups, straws, and packaging bags.
Aunt Zhang stared in disbelief as Liu Zi carried the items into the house one by one.
Liu Zi called Lingzi and Zhao Qi over and told them to come back early for dessert that night.
The two children were quite excited and went out happily, only to return in the evening followed by a bunch of little tails.
Liu Zi looked down at her two daughters, both of whom seemed a little embarrassed.
It's all their fault for going out and showing off that their mothers were making delicious food; they never expected it would attract so many people.
Aunt Zhang felt a little heartbroken; these were eggs and milk, all good things, and she was reluctant to give them all away.
Liu Zi originally planned to send some to a few families she was on good terms with, but she didn't expect so many children from the village to come. She guessed she would have to send less to each family.
After counting the number of people, Liu Zi went back into the house and brought out a large plate of egg tarts cut in half.
"There are too many people, it's hard to divide. How about you each have half to try?"
The children were very well-behaved; under the direction of Da Shan and Xiao Shan, they lined up to receive their egg tarts.
Wow! This is so delicious!
"So crispy and soft!"
I love it!
...
The children's eyes lit up, and they exclaimed in amazement.
They were too embarrassed to come to Liu Zi, so they all gathered around Ling Zi and Zhao Qi.
"Lingzi, Qiqi, your mom's cooking is so delicious!"
"Yeah! Compared to what your mom makes, what my mom makes is like pig slop."
"My mom too!"
...
The other children all agreed, but Liu Zi stood at her front door with a dark expression on her face.
Please!
When you guys are attacking your own moms, could you please not include me in it? It's making me a target of your anger!
Following the previous cake incident, Liu Zi has once again successfully entered the children's circle in Songzhuang, becoming the most impressive role model mother in their hearts.
After the experiment was successful, Liu Zi posted a job advertisement in front of her store, which was still under renovation, on the overpass.
She plans to hire two people this time, one to prepare meals and the other to sell goods.
However, as soon as this idea was mentioned, it was rejected by Aunt Zhang.
"I can handle the stock preparation. I don't have much to do at home anyway. I can also make the shortcrust pastry you kneaded before. Just make it a day in advance, freeze it, and you can use it directly the next day!" Aunt Zhang thought of saving Liu Zi some money.
Liu Zi thought about it and nodded in agreement.
"However, you'll have to charge a labor fee, otherwise I'll find someone else to do it."
"You silly child, we're all family, why are you making such a big deal out of things? You're distancing yourself from me."
Liu Zi was taken aback, realizing that she was still influenced by the lifestyle of later generations and subconsciously thought that people who wanted to help her were only after her money.
"I'm sorry, ma'am, I misunderstood. Let's not talk about money anymore. I'll be troubling you more in the future."
"It's alright, your auntie is in good health and has plenty of strength. Besides, these things aren't tiring to do and don't take much effort." Only then did Aunt Zhang show a relieved smile.
