Chapter 408 Only You Can Do It
Zhuang Qingning had just learned about Cheng's Spice Shop from Zhuang Yutian. He knew that Cheng Ruize was very busy, so he didn't have much hope. When Fang Hou came to deliver the message, he roughly knew the situation.
Zhuang Qingning stood up, having already figured out how to tell Fang Hou that it was okay.
But as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Cheng Ruize following behind Fang Hou.
"Shopkeeper Cheng?" Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Yutian were both a little surprised.
"The two Managers Zhuang." Cheng Ruize smiled slightly and bowed to Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Yutian.
Zhuang Yutian hurriedly led a few people to the backyard and served them tea.
Since Zhuang Qingning came to look for Cheng Ruize, Zhuang Yutian guessed that he might have something to do, so he found an excuse to go to the shop in front so as not to disturb him.
"I heard that Manager Cheng's spice shop has had some issues recently and should be very busy. I wanted to not bother Manager Cheng any more..."
Zhuang Qingning took a sip of tea and said.
"It seems that Shopkeeper Zhuang has already known about it." Cheng Ruize looked a little guilty, "Something did happen in Cheng's Spice Shop. It's all my fault for not managing it well. I'm really ashamed."
"Although there are still some things, most of them have been dealt with now. The remaining finishing touches have been entrusted to others. I am just there to keep the peace. I am not of much use."
"I heard Fang Hou come over to tell me that Manager Zhuang is here, so I wanted to come over and ask if there's anything going on."
"Indeed, there is something I would like to trouble Manager Cheng to help me with. I wonder if it would be convenient for you." Zhuang Qingning said.
"Manager Zhuang, please feel free to speak." Cheng Ruize raised his hand.
"Manager Cheng should know about Miao Zhuang, the company that supplies sweet potato vermicelli here." Zhuang Qingning said, "When I went to Miao Zhuang's workshop yesterday, I was invited to dinner by Aunt Zhang. I found that Aunt Zhang's family was very poor, and her two children were pale and thin. The youngest son was already a little sick."
"Aunt Zhang is a kind and hardworking person, but the family is really too much in debt. Even though Aunt Zhang is down-to-earth and capable, I don't know when I can have enough food and clothes and a healthy body."
"I wanted to help, but I was afraid that the other party would not accept a gift for no reason. So I thought that Manager Cheng often had people go to Miao Village to transport vermicelli, so I thought of borrowing Manager Cheng's hand to help me send some tofu over."
"When you send it, you don't have to say it's only for Aunt Zhang's family. Just say that everyone who works in the vermicelli workshop will get a share, and Aunt Zhang won't be suspicious."
"As for the tofu, just ship it directly from my tofu workshop. It will be based on the number of people and the amount. There is only one thing that Shopkeeper Cheng needs to remember. When distributing the tofu, just say it is done by Mr. Cheng and it is a token of your goodwill. You don't need to mention me at all."
After hearing this, Cheng Ruize nodded slightly and said, "This matter is very simple. I just need to send someone to do it."
"It's just that it was clearly Shopkeeper Zhuang who paid for the goods, but in the end, Cheng's business benefited from it. This is extremely inappropriate. So in my opinion, since this is something that will give Cheng's business a good reputation, it's better for Cheng's business to pay for it."
"To be honest with you, Shopkeeper Zhuang, I sent some sweet potato vermicelli to the city a few days ago, and they were quite popular. I am planning to send a large amount of goods to the city, so I will need the sweet potato vermicelli workshop to speed up the work."
"Although I have done more work and earned more money, it is still a bit hard during this period of time. I wanted to send something to the people in the workshop so that they can feel that their hard work is worthwhile. The tofu that Miss Zhuang mentioned reminded me that sending some meat and eggs would be very practical."
"So Manager Zhuang doesn't have to worry about this matter. Just let me do it. Cheng Ji will also pay for all the things."
"Since Manager Cheng said so..."
Zhuang Qingning lowered his head, thought for a while, and said, "We should each take responsibility for this matter. I will pay for the tofu, and as for the other things, if Manager Cheng is willing to add some, then he can add some."
"In addition, I also want to ask Manager Zhuang to arrange for the clerk to do another thing. This matter is very important. I'm afraid Manager Cheng will have to find someone capable to do it."
"Oh?" Cheng Ruize raised his eyebrows.
After a cup of tea, Zhuang Qingning and Zhuang Yutian sent Cheng Ruize out of Chengji Cloth Shop.
"Manager Cheng, take care."
"Goodbye. I won't see you off." Cheng Ruize and Fang Hou strode away.
When he reached the corner, Cheng Ruize quickened his pace and hurried to the spice shop.
Fang Hou walked quickly behind, muttering to himself.
The shopkeeper of my own family is really strange. He is obviously too busy in the spice shop to spare time, but he still has the mind to care about what Shopkeeper Zhuang does.
But then again, his shopkeeper is the most wise one, with a much longer-term vision than most people. Maybe he thinks that the shopkeeper will have great things in the future, so he thought it would be a good idea to sell it to the shopkeeper, which would also facilitate future business.
As Fang Hou was thinking this, he became distracted and didn't even bother to look at his feet. He bumped into the back of Cheng Ruize's head who suddenly stopped.
"Shopkeeper?" Fang Hou rubbed his aching forehead and asked hurriedly, "Is it okay?"
Why did it suddenly stop for no reason?
Fang Hou also looked at Cheng Ruize with some surprise.
"I have something for you to do in the next two days." Cheng Ruize pondered, "I've thought about it and realized that only you can do this. If it were someone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to do it."
Something that only he can do? Fang Hou was immediately full of energy because of Cheng Ruize's affirmation and praise. He patted his chest and said, "Boss, just tell me if you have anything to say!" - It was just around noon when Zhuang Qingning arrived at Ruyi Pavilion in the town.
Seeing Zhuang Qingning enter the backyard, Ma Tong was overjoyed when he saw her carrying the leftover dishes from the front hall to the backyard, "Miss Zhuang, you're here."
"Just now I saw you hadn't come yet at this hour, so I thought you weren't coming!"
Especially when he saw Zhang Yongchang's face getting darker and darker, Ma Tong didn't dare to stay in the backyard for even a little longer. He hurried to the front hall in order to leave this place of trouble.
Ma Tong thought he would have to spend the whole afternoon in fear, and his face turned completely bitter.
Now that he saw Zhuang Qingning coming, Ma Tong felt that the whole world was bright.
Especially when he thought about drinking the smooth white mutton soup later, he was even more delighted. "It's good that Miss Zhuang is here. Miss Zhuang, please find a place to sit for a while. I'll go to the front to clean up."
"Customers are coming in right now, so just go and do your thing. I'm afraid Uncle Zhang is also busy right now, so I won't bother you for now. Tell Uncle Zhang that I'm going to take a look at the tofu shop first and will be back in a while."
My recent status is that I go to work at 8 o'clock and work non-stop until 7 o'clock in the afternoon, then go home to eat, clean up and start writing...
So the recent updates are late, I'm very sorry~ (End of this chapter)
