Gao Zhi chased out, took out a small bamboo tube and gave it to Gao Miao, "Gao Miao, take this with you."

Gao Miao took the small bamboo tube and said, "Okay! Jiaojiao, stay at home and take good care of yourself."

"I know!" Gao Zhi looked at Gao Miao and Gao Yunting, "Good luck to you two. I'll be waiting for your good news at home."

"Yes!" The two nodded heavily.

After Gao Zhi finished explaining everything, he watched them leave on the ox cart.

Gao Zhi believes Gao Miao, but is quite worried about Gao Yunting.

After all, the two people are not on the same level.

Gao Miao boasted a few years ago that if there was smoke coming out of his ancestral grave, an official would definitely appear in the family.

Obviously everyone placed their hopes on Gao Yunting.

This time Gao Yunting is taking part in the college entrance examination, hoping to pass the examination and become a student.

On this day, the villagers who went out to sell things came back later than usual, and they had a lot of things left.

They carried the things back to the Xie family with sad faces.

Xie stopped what she was doing and came over to ask.

"What happened?"

The villagers looked at the things they had brought back and said anxiously, "There are still a lot of things left from today, and a braised meat shop has opened in the town.

Their braised meat is cheaper than ours, and in the first three days of opening, if you buy one pound, you get one pound free.

Everyone rushed there to line up to buy it.

Some people are used to the taste of our restaurant and don’t go there anymore. They can ask us politely if we can lower the price.”

Not only the braised meat was not sold out, but the tofu was also not sold out.

These things have been sold for several years, and people have imitated them one after another, but none of them have been successful.

Therefore, the business of their Lao Zhuang Village has been going on for a long time.

After listening to this, Mrs. Xie also became anxious.

This concerns the livelihood of the entire village. What if the braised meat and tofu cannot be sold?

Although Gao Miao's expenses for going to the academy are not large now, she has heard from Gao Zhi that if she takes part in the imperial examination and succeeds, she will have to spend more money.

As an official in the court, you have to take care of many things.

It's absolutely impossible to do without money.

"Don't worry, let's wait and see about this. Give us a smaller portion tomorrow.

There were some imitators in the past, but it didn’t take long for our old customers to come back.”

The villagers thought about it and it made sense.

But the weather is hot now, and these things will go bad if left until tomorrow, especially the tofu.

They bought these things from Xie, and since they hadn't sold them all, they had no choice but to carry them home.

Either eat it yourself or give it to others.

"Sister-in-law, you have many ideas. Please help me think of other ways to preserve the tofu and braised pork without changing their taste if they cannot be sold out."

In the eyes of the villagers, Xie is a capable person.

I have tried so many foods over the years, and every one of them was a success.

Maybe she has a way to preserve these things in such a hot day.

Xie also knew that if the products could not be sold, it would be equivalent to not being able to recover the capital.

"Okay! I'll think of a solution tonight."

"Okay! We'll go back first." The villagers left carrying their things.

Mrs. Xie stood in the yard and sighed.

Gao Zhi came out of the house and said, "Mom, let's come in and talk."

"Jiaojiao, you heard what they said just now, right? Do you have any good ideas?"

Xie hurried into the house.

"Mom, I heard everything they said just now. Now, in addition to finding a way to deal with the unsaleable items, we also need to find out the reason for our failure.

First of all, we must know ourselves and our enemies.

Tomorrow, I will ask the village chief to accompany me to the town to buy some braised meat from that restaurant.

In addition, we have to come up with more ways to eat it.

For example, with the leftover tofu, we can make fermented tofu, stinky tofu, or fried tofu.

With more styles, customers have more choices.”

As soon as Xie heard it, he felt it was reliable.

She felt that no matter what the matter was, Gao Zhi could always come up with a good solution.

“So when are we going to make fermented bean curd and a few other things?

Let’s do it like before, you teach me and I do it, and when it succeeds, we’ll tell the villagers.”

Xie wished she could take action right now.

In this way, villagers no longer have to worry about not being able to sell their goods.

"Mom, there's really no need to rush! No matter what problems they encounter, we always handle them properly. This is not good.

No matter what happens in the future, they will think that we have an obligation to help solve it.

We are doing business, friendship is friendship, but rules still need to be followed."

Gao Zhi doesn't intend to spoil the villagers forever.

Spoiled people!

That's not a good thing.

Although Xie was anxious, she listened to Gao Zhi.

"Okay! I'll listen to you."

The next day, Gao Zhi went to find Gao Ronghua. The old and the young drove a ox cart to the town to eat delicious food.

First, they asked someone to help them queue up to buy the braised meat, and then they sat in the teahouse opposite to drink tea and eat snacks.

The weather is hot now, and not many people are drinking tea in the teahouse, so business is bad.

The storyteller talked until his mouth was dry, but he didn't get any reward money.

The boss is also very worried. This business is so difficult to do.

The boss was extremely envious when he saw the long line outside the braised meat shop opposite.

“This braised meat is really popular. The aroma of his braised meat can be smelled all over the street.

More people buy braised meat today than yesterday.

So many people are eating braised meat, why don't they come in to drink some tea to relieve the greasiness, and then listen to storytelling, that would be so interesting."

Gao Zhi also glanced towards the door and smiled slightly. She took out her purse and counted out twenty coins.

Then, take it to the storyteller.

“Uncle, you told a good story, but it lacks suspense.

If you finish speaking in a flash, people will only listen today and won’t come tomorrow.

You can make the story longer and tell it in several parts. At the end of each day, you should make it mysterious to hook people's hearts, so that they will come to listen tomorrow.

If you tell a good story, not only will you earn more, but your boss’s tea and snacks will also sell well.”

The storyteller stopped and looked at the little girl in front of him with a frown.

"Girl, you are still young and don't understand this."

The teahouse owner ran over and said, "Little girl, I think what you just said makes sense.

It’s just that this guy keeps telling the same few stories over and over again, he can’t make up any other stories.”

Gao Zhi returned to the table and sat down, tapping the table with his fingers, "Boss, to be honest, my master is very good at telling stories.

Especially ghost stories.

I tell you, ghost stories are the most fascinating. "

"What?" The boss was a little panicked. "Ghost story?"

“Yes, a ghost story. Besides, the atmosphere in your teahouse is not good. If you want to tell a ghost story, you need to use some props.

How about this, you cooperate with my master, I guarantee you will make a lot of money."

The boss and the storyteller both hesitated.

Will this work?

Gao Zhi was not in a hurry and waited for them to consider it.

Otherwise, people would think that she came here specifically to seek cooperation, although that was also her original intention.

Gao Zhi was thinking, why not just open a shop of his own?

Modern haunted houses are both frightening and lovable, and they are booming in business.

She can combine a haunted house with a script-killing show.

The old man is superstitious and is most suitable for this.

Even though he is my master in name only, I can't just sit there and do nothing.

When the old man gets better, he should be allowed to do real work and make money.

There were many things that were not convenient for her as a child, and it was not convenient for Xie as a woman, so they had to let the old man step forward.
