What Jiang Shan didn't know was that the "plague god" she sent away quickly transformed into a "god of wealth".
When Rong Yue was bored along the way, he liked to talk to Jiang Yong. He was impressed that this boy, who was even younger than him, was in charge of a logistics and transportation team of over a hundred people. At the same time, he also expressed deep envy.
He really wanted to work with Jiang Yong in the transport team, but his parents would definitely not agree.
Jiang Yong listened to his complaints for several days, and when they were about to go to Beijing, he had a heart-to-heart talk with him for a whole morning.
A logistics route from Chongqing to Beijing was planned a full year ahead of schedule by Jiang Yong.
The two boys, both under eighteen, were responsible for completing this special line and establishing a base in Beijing.
At that time, Jiangshan had been operating a store in Chongqing for a full year.
This New Year in Chongqing is quite different from usual. The owners and staff of all the restaurants and inns did not take a holiday, and merchants from all walks of life were busy as bees, because the trade fair would not end until after the Lantern Festival.
What's Chinese New Year compared to that!
What's so special about having a family reunion dinner!
Making money is the right thing to do. The transaction volume during the trade fair is several times that of previous years. Only a fool would close the door and let the staff go home for the New Year.
Needless to say, Jiang's Private Kitchen has been working tirelessly for over a month, from the owner to the cooks in the kitchen!
It's okay! Everyone says we can handle it!
Working overtime on rest days can earn you three times the salary, plus bonuses. As long as you don't die from exhaustion, you can manage!
Jiang Shan originally planned to bring Jiao's mother to Yuzhou for the New Year, but Jiao's mother learned from Sanlang's letter about the trade fair being held in Yuzhou, so she postponed her trip to Yuzhou, only saying that she would come over to celebrate Jiang Huai's second birthday.
Jiang Shan was incredibly busy, but her hard work paid off, and the trade fair brought her both fame and fortune.
For Jiang's Private Kitchen, the turnover is just a series of numbers. Chengbang Logistics has recently signed contracts that keep them busy from the beginning to the end of the year. The transaction volume at the commodity fair has increased exponentially. The tax revenue paid to the government is more than in previous years. Jiangshan's name has become synonymous with Chongqing.
Business people will be more patient if they hear that something is related to the Jiang family of Chongqing. In Chongqing, being able to reserve a table at "Jiang Family Private Kitchen" is a matter of great prestige. As long as it is a transport team from Chengbang Logistics, there is no need to open the boxes for inspection along the way.
After the Lantern Festival, out-of-town merchants gradually returned home. Apart from Chengbang Logistics being as busy as ever, Jiangshan was finally able to take a breather.
The first thing she needs to do is catch up on her sleep!
After lunch, Jiang Shan carried his son back to the rest room to sleep.
It was too cold, so Jiang Huai had less homework and spent more time with Jiang Shan.
When Fu Qiyuan arrived, the mother and daughter were fast asleep.
The charcoal fire inside the room was burning brightly. Fu Qiyuan moved the charcoal brazier a little further away and lay down behind Jiang Shan.
Not long after, Jiang Shan turned over and snuggled into Fu Qiyuan's arms, leaving Jiang Huai alone outside the blanket.
Fu Qiyuan smiled slightly, covered Jiang Huai with the small blanket he had prepared, and then comfortably fell asleep while holding Jiang Shan.
When Jiang Huai woke up, it was already afternoon. He rubbed his sleepy eyes, got out of bed, looked at his father and mother who were huddled together, and silently got out of bed.
He finally managed to put on his little cotton-padded jacket, but he couldn't button it up, so he grabbed the toy gun on the bed, slipped on his little boots, and left the room.
At this time, there are usually no customers in the shop. On the first floor, only the cashier is doing the accounting and a few waiters are cleaning.
Jiang Huai walked down the stairs, greeted the accountant, and then sat on a small stool by the door, playing with toys while waiting for Fu Li to come and pick him up.
While playing with it, the spring inside the toy gun got stuck, and the leather bullet inside couldn't pop out.
He fiddled with it for a long time but couldn't pry the bullet out of the spring.
Just as he was scratching his head in frustration, an old man with a long beard stood in front of him with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile, "Little kid, do you need my help?"
Jiang Huai glanced at the old man, then at the toy gun in his hand, and silently handed it over.
The old man held the wooden toy gun in his hand for a while, then pushed the trigger up to reset it.
"alright!"
Jiang Huai took the toy gun, flicked his finger, and the leather bullet popped out.
"Hehe!" He grinned at the old man, showing off his small white teeth, and then began to take things apart and play with them again, tirelessly.
The old man squatted down beside the child, buttoned up the child's clothes, put on the child's shoes, and chatted with the child casually.
"Your name is Huai'er, right? Where are your parents?"
"Go to sleep, Daddy and Mommy are going to sleep."
"...Okay, that's great! What are you doing here all by yourself?"
"Wait for Lili, Xihu teaches Huai'er to jump on stakes."
"Xihu...what Xihu?"
“Xi Hu, Huai’er’s Xi Hu, one by one.”
"You mean An Yi? Great-Grandpa will take you to find An Yi in a little while. Great-Grandpa is hungry now, can you have something to eat with Great-Grandpa first?"
Jiang Huai thought for a moment, then stood up and led the old man inside.
An elderly man and a young boy sat in a corner of the lobby, looking quite respectable. A waiter hurriedly came forward to greet them, and upon seeing that it was Jiang Huai, he asked in surprise, "Young master, what are you doing here?"
Jiang Huai said in a childish voice, "Grandpa's tummy is hungry. He wants to eat steamed buns (meat buns), steamed egg custard, shrimp, and meat!"
The waiter looked at the old man beside him with a puzzled expression, and frowned, saying, "Sir, this is my young master. Are you here to see our boss?"
The old man waved his hand, "No rush, bring up some food first, just serve the dishes Huai'er ordered."
The waiter turned and went to the kitchen, instructing the chef to serve the dishes while sending someone upstairs to inform the owner.
Beef buns, crab roe egg custard, stir-fried shrimp with scallions, and steamed pork with rice flour are all popular dishes in the Jianghuai region. As soon as the dishes were served, the old man and the young man ate happily.
Jianghuai was very good at using chopsticks. Except for peeling shrimp, which was done by the old man, he didn't have to worry about anything else after the meal.
The old man was extremely satisfied!
As I ate the last shrimp, a gentle voice came from the stairwell.
"Huai'er, you've brought someone back from outside again?"
Jiang Huai picked up three people from outside in two months: a lost old woman, a little beggar, and a little girl with intellectual disabilities.
The old woman was sent to the government office for registration, the little beggar stayed in the kitchen to do odd jobs, and the mentally disabled girl had a rather noble status. When Shi Tou and the others took the little girl home, they were almost beaten up by her parents.
Jiang Huai turned around and glanced at Fu Qiyuan, then put down the shrimp meat in his hand and ran over, hugging his father's leg and tilting his little head up, saying, "Daddy, Huai'er found a baby..."
Fu Qiyuan looked at the old man, his dark eyes narrowing slightly.
