This made Zhou Xiang feel a little embarrassed. These were all elderly people, and they all expressed their gratitude to her, which made her feel a little guilty. In fact, she was also using them to hype up the business.
Ling Ran took over for his wife, "You're all so polite. We're mutually beneficial. You have a stage to perform on and can make some money, and we've boosted the mall's reputation. We all have contributed, so there's no need to be so polite."
The curator nodded. "That's right. Mutual benefit and win-win cooperation."
Before we left, more people came. Director Xu came with his youngest son Xu Fanghui.
When the curator saw this, he stood up and said goodbye, and sent the group of elderly people to the door. Only then did Zhou Xiang come back to receive Director Xu and his son.
Seeing Zhou Xiang coming in, Director Xu pulled his son up and said, "Happy New Year, Miss Zhou!"
"Director Xu, Mr. Xu, Happy New Year! Sit down and talk."
After sitting down, Director Xu mentioned that Director Tong had asked him about his son's symptoms and the price of the medicine. "At the time, Miss Zhou said she was short of money, and Director Tong came to me, so I told him."
Zhou Xiang laughed, "I'm really short of money, so I like these second-generation rich devils and the like, and they come to me."
Xu Fanghui couldn't help but move his butt. He has changed and is definitely not a second-generation rich kid anymore.
Director Xu also shrank his neck. "It seems like you're planning to go out. We won't disturb you any longer. Bye."
"Okay, I'll take you there."
"No, no, please stay."
As they spoke, the father and son quickly left the Zhou family's house.
Zhou Xiang shook his head and laughed. Did he want to get close to her but was afraid of her at the same time?
Ling Ran grabbed his wife's shoulder and said, "Let's go! It's already past nine o'clock."
"Walk."
The car drove all the way to the door of his godfather's house. Just as Zhou Xiang opened the door and got out, Guan Bo came out of the house. "I heard the car and guessed it was you guys."
"Happy New Year, Godfather!"
"Happy New Year!"
At this time, Aunt Guan also came out.
"Happy New Year, godmother!"
"Happy New Year! Didn't they bring the three treasures?"
"It's too cold. I'll bring it to you two next year to wish you a happy new year."
"That's right. By this time next year, he will be over one year old and able to walk, run and call people."
While talking, the mother and daughter went into the house, while the father-in-law and son-in-law were moving things outside.
The trunk was packed full, so Guan Bo stopped talking and just started moving things down. These must be things his goddaughter asked him to bring.
Ling Ran specifically brought out the dried fish. "This is the dried fish from that giant fish. Don't be reluctant to eat it just because it's dried. It will get moldy during the rainy season."
"I know, I know. I don't have time to cook at home when I go to the food court to work. I can bring some to the stall to make soup."
"When you're done eating, go get more. We have plenty prepared at home. You know you can chop a fish into many pieces."
"Of course I will. Take this wine to my room."
Inside the house, Zhou Xiang was asking his godmother about the stall's business.
Upon hearing this, Aunt Guan's face lit up with a smile. "Great! I didn't expect that even in winter, the cold noodles would be so popular. *** Business was good during the summer vacation."
"Godmother, there's no end to making money. Look at my second sister's stall. Either you hire a worker to wash the gluten, or you sell it in fixed quantities and close the stall to rest after you've sold it."
Guan Bo, who had just walked in, heard this and agreed, "That's what I said too. Your godmother refused to do it. She said she hired someone to wash the gluten, but they learned the skills and said that business was so good that it would be a shame not to open a stall. What do you think of her?"
Aunt Guan glared at her husband angrily and even complained about her in front of her goddaughter.
Guan Bo just pretended not to see it and didn't care at all.
Zhou Xiang chuckled, "Godmother, Godfather is thinking about your health. He also has to take care of the exhibition hall, so he can't help much. It's too hard for you to do it alone. Hire someone to help you wash the gluten! Just learn it! Our food court does not recruit the same food.
It doesn't matter if you learn to sell it elsewhere. If you sell it in the market town, how many people are willing to sit on the roadside in the cold wind or under the scorching sun to eat cold noodles? Moreover, you have also seen the character of this person. If you change someone else to wash gluten,
If someone else were to set up a stall, it would be perfect. There isn't much business outside anyway, and if the two of them were to fight for it, wouldn't that be a good show?
You can continue to replace people with others to wash gluten, and when all the women in Guanjia Village can wash gluten and steam cold noodles, your business will be firmly established in the food street, and no one can shake your stall business."
Guan Bo laughed heartily. "Right, right, that's right. People in the market town are now used to eating snacks in the food court. It's clean and sanitary. Roadside businesses can't survive. They won't be able to recoup their investment and will lose everything!"
Aunt Guan felt relieved after hearing what her goddaughter said. She could do whatever she wanted. She just watched the joke. If she could help her wash the gluten with peace of mind, she would feel relieved. Washing the gluten could also earn her some pocket money. "How can I count my wages?"
"If you calculate it by dough or by time, you can estimate that it's about five yuan, and you can earn more than a hundred yuan a month right at home! If you don't wash it properly or don't pay attention to hygiene, you can replace them."
Aunt Guan couldn't help but grin, "Why do I feel like a rich landlord?"
"Isn't it? Your current savings are not comparable to those of ordinary people. Your daughter-in-law even taught you how to use money to enslave others. Aren't you just a rich landlord?" Guan Bo followed with a smile.
"Godfather, I didn't, please don't wrongly accuse me."
"Yes, yes, you didn't." Guan Bo responded, laughing.
Aunt Guan glanced at him and said, "Stop laughing and go cook."
Zhou Xiang waved his hand and said, "No, we won't be eating here this year. Aunt Wang is on vacation, and she won't be able to take care of the crying child."
"That's great! I can stay and have dinner with my kids next year."
"Yes, next year I'll be taking care of the kids, so I won't have to worry about eating out."
He sat for a while longer before getting up and leaving. "Godfather, godmother, the shop opens on the ninth day of the first lunar month. Now that all the relatives have left, come to my house to look after the children!"
"Okay, okay, I'll go after I finish visiting relatives here."
After getting in the car, Zhou Xiang stuck his head out and waved to his godfather and godmother who were following the car, "Godfather and godmother, go back! It's cold outside."
The car slowly accelerated and turned onto the town road heading south. Zhou Xiang could still see the figures of his godfather and godmother. He sighed softly and sat up straight.
Zhang Jiazhong, who had been waiting for a long time, stood up immediately when he saw Zhou Xiang coming back and said, "Think about it."
With white hair and a face full of wrinkles, he looked so old that Zhou Xiang was slightly startled. "Uncle Zhang."
Zhang Jiazhong smiled, his face full of wrinkles like a blooming chrysanthemum, "Thinking about it, I still remember Uncle Zhang!"
Zhou Xiang nodded. "I remember. How could I not remember? Are you here to rent a stall?"
Zhang Jiazhong was flattered by such a respectful and polite tone. "Yes, Jing'er said yesterday when she returned to her parents' home that we wanted to give it a try."
Zhou Xiang nodded and said, "Sure. When Stationmaster Xie was looking for someone to rent the space, he offered a month of free rent. All they had to do was pay for the water and electricity bills. You can also enjoy this offer."
Zhang Jiazhong was very excited and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you, thank you, thank you. We will come on the sixth day of the New Year. Go back and prepare the things."
