Chapter 52 Damn it
If he could keep Li Fang, Feng Yongkang would like to keep him, but if he had to choose between Zhang Yongchang and his clerk, Feng Yongkang would naturally not hesitate.
"Okay, you can get up too. You have committed such a mistake and you still want to stay here shamelessly. That is absolutely impossible." Feng Yongkang looked at Li Fang coldly and said, "Pack up your things, find the accountant, pay your wages, and leave quickly."
After that, he paused for a moment and continued, "It's getting late tonight anyway, so let's have a good sleep and leave tomorrow."
After all, he is an old friend. Even if he is no longer needed, things should not be made so awkward. Feng Yongkang feels that he should still give him due kindness.
Li Fang's face turned pale and he slumped to the ground, not saying a word for a long time. No one knew whether it was because he was too sad about the incident or because he blamed himself and felt annoyed.
Since he was no longer his own employee from now on, Feng Yongkang didn't think too much about it and just walked away with his sleeves rolled up.
Zhang Yongchang looked down on such people even more. He snorted coldly and turned away.
Only Ma Tong, who stayed behind to watch the show, couldn't help but clap his hands and cheer.
It's what he deserves! This is the fate of a person with evil intentions!
As for Uncle Zhang, I used to think he was stubborn, had a bad temper and was difficult to get along with, but now I see that he is a good person. At least his character is excellent.
Ma Tong was thinking about how to get along well with Zhang Yongchang in the future, and he continued to work while humming a little tune.
Li Fang sat paralyzed on the ground for a long while, his face gradually turning from white to liver color.
Damn it! --Because starting from tomorrow, we have to supply tofu to Fushunlou and keep some tofu sold in the village for the He family. This will require a lot more tofu than usual. Zhuang Qingning has to increase the amount of soaked beans and grind more tofu.
But in this case, although the tofu pot is big enough to cook so much soy milk, grinding and filtering the milk becomes a very laborious task.
With this in mind, Zhuang Qingning decided to take Zhuang Qingsui to the tofu shop early to grind soy milk.
As a result, as soon as I went out, I ran into Zhuang Mingliang, who was carrying two bamboo baskets in his hands.
"Sister Ning." Zhuang Mingliang had a smile on his face.
He originally had a round face and a simple and honest look, but when he smiled, he looked even more honest and mature.
"Why are you here?" Zhuang Qingning also laughed: "Did your parents ask you to bring something to me?"
"My parents said that Sister Ning, you need to grind a lot of tofu, and they are afraid that you are too busy to handle it, so they asked me to help you grind the tofu. Although I don't know how to grind tofu, I am strong, so I can help you grind the beans."
Zhuang Mingliang shook his arms as he spoke: "My parents also said that I can just take the tofu back home when I get up tomorrow morning, so that Sister Ning won't have to worry about making arrangements."
He is also twelve years old, three months younger than Zhuang Qingning, but Zhuang Mingliang inherited Zhuang Yonghe's tall stature. He is already a full head taller than Zhuang Qingning and looks very strong.
People who have been doing farm work for many years, even children, are very strong.
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Qingning's smile deepened.
I guess He was worried that she would be too busy, so she asked Zhuang Mingliang to come and help.
"I was still thinking about this, so I planned to go to the mill earlier and start grinding the beans earlier. It happens that you are here, so please help me." Zhuang Qingning said with a smile.
"Okay." Zhuang Mingliang nodded vigorously and followed Zhuang Qingning to the mill.
Scoop out the beans, grind the soy milk, help light the fire, and finally press the tofu into shape.
Zhuang Mingliang is tall and strong. He is also honest and hardworking. He takes on almost half of the work of grinding tofu.
"These are the tofu for today. They are all packed for you. You can take them back." Zhuang Qingning packed enough tofu into the bamboo basket and cut two pounds of extra tofu to put on top. "Take this back and cook it at noon."
"I don't want it..." Zhuang Mingliang stretched out his hand to refuse.
"If you don't want it, I won't dare ask you to grind tofu for me in the future." Zhuang Qingning covered the cage cloth without giving Zhuang Mingliang any chance to refuse: "Take it back first and tell uncle and aunt. I'm grinding more and more tofu, and I need someone to help me with the work. You can help me first and see how our tofu sells. If it keeps doing well, I'll pay you a daily wage."
Zhuang Mingliang was the tongue-tied person and didn't know what to say. When he heard Zhuang Qingning say this, he thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll go back and tell my parents about it."
After saying that, he picked up the two bamboo baskets with his hands, one on the left and one on the right: "Then Sister Ning, I'll go first."
"Okay, go ahead, but go slowly."
"Okay." Zhuang Mingliang took two steps, then turned back and said with a smile, "If there's any work to be done at home, just call me and Minghao."
"Okay." Zhuang Qingning smiled and escorted Zhuang Mingliang out of the tofu shop. Then he cleaned up the shop and put Wen's tofu pudding and tofu in the kitchen.
When Bai San arrived driving the ox cart, he put baskets of tofu on the cart and headed towards the town.
"Ning girl, I heard yesterday that Chef Zhang from Fushunlou bought tofu from you?" Bai San stretched out his hand and swung a loud whip in the air.
"Uncle Bai, have you heard about it?" Zhuang Qingning asked with a smile.
"I went shopping yesterday afternoon, and I agreed with what Sister Liu said." Bai San said, "I have dealt with Chef Zhang twice before. He is stubborn and likes to argue, but he is also a straightforward person. Since he wants to buy tofu from you, I'm afraid that the entire Fushun Building will only use your tofu from now on, and no one else's."
"And I also heard that Chef Zhang used to be a cook in the county. I guess he knows a lot of restaurants and hotels in the county. If he is willing to talk to them, you can sell your tofu in the county."
Bai San became happier and happier as he spoke, his mouth almost reaching his ears. He said to Zhuang Qingning, "Ning girl, in my opinion, you should rent a storefront in town so that it will be convenient for you to sell tofu. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient for you to sell tofu on this cloudy and rainy day."
"I have been thinking about this, but I have been thinking about it. First, I can't make so much tofu every day. If I sell tofu, I can only sell it for half a day, and I have to close the shop for the remaining half of the day. It's a waste. Secondly, it doesn't cost much to set up a stall in town. If I rent a shop, I have to pay for it, which is also an expense."
Two updates today, the second one should be in the afternoon~ (End of this chapter)
