After listening to the village chief's words, Old Man Mo asked a question.
The village chief nodded and smiled, his wrinkles deepening. "That's the idea. The businessman also said he's definitely interested in buying, but we're too scattered and can't guarantee quality and quantity. He suggested we set up a small workshop to produce everything in a unified manner. He'll buy in large quantities, and if we can't guarantee quality and quantity, he'll buy from other villages."
The Mo family members looked enlightened, but they could understand. After all, businessmen need a stable and sufficient supply of goods to ensure their business can be stable and long-lasting.
Old Mo asked tentatively, "So you mean..."
The village chief didn't mince words and said directly, "That's why I'm here. I just wanted to ask if you've ever thought about setting up your own small workshop. If you're interested, we can partner up. If you're not, I can find other people to run it with. What do you think?"
The Mo family was stunned; they had never thought of setting up a small workshop.
Finally, all eyes turned to Su Nanxi, to see what she would think.
Su Nanxi was puzzled. Why were they all looking at her?
Mo Qinghe squeezed her hand. "Wife, would you like to start a rice noodle workshop?"
She didn't want that; she just wanted ready-made rice noodles!
Seeing that Su Nanxi had no ideas, the Mo family also had no ideas.
The village chief said, "After all, the Mo family is the first to know how to make rice noodles, so I still had to ask you, right? It wouldn't be right for us to make them secretly without saying anything. Since none of you have any ideas, then we'll do it!"
Grandma Mo waved her hand, "Hey! It's nothing, it's nothing! We taught everyone so that everyone could earn some money, right? Just do it. If you do it well, our village will have income and life will be a little easier."
The village chief chuckled, "That's right! If it's done well, I, as the village chief, will have done a very good deed! Hahaha!"
That's true. Every household in the village has always been poor. If they set up a small workshop and did well, the villagers' lives would be more stable, and they would definitely thank him, the village chief! After so many years as village chief, he finally has something to show for his achievements!
After the village chief left, Zhao sighed, "Ah! If only we had done it together!"
Mo Lao Er lightly tapped her head. "What are you thinking? Do we have land? Do we have money? Do you think we can just do it whenever we want? We have neither money nor land, how much share can we get? Do you really want to compete with others?"
Zhao retorted to Mo Lao Er, unconvinced, "I know that too! I was just saying!"
Mo Lao Er couldn't dodge it, or perhaps he was deliberately letting his wife have her way, so he got a hard knock on the head, but he was still laughing.
Su Nanxi curled her lip. Tsk, she was going to report them! These two were suspected of deliberately showing affection in public!
Old Mo sighed softly, and the two of them stopped arguing and looked over.
“Our family doesn’t have the resources to open a small workshop right now, so let’s not get involved. It’s great if a small workshop is done well, but in the early stages, nobody has much money. It would require a dozen or so households to partner up, which can easily lead to chaos. There are advantages to not getting involved. Besides, we’re going to be making breakfast; how could we possibly manage all that?”
Everyone thought about it and agreed, "They're busy! They can make money earlier!"
So it's not a pity anymore; I've figured it out.
Mo Yunmei suddenly ran up to Su Nanxi and said, "Don't you usually have a lot of free time when you come back? Why don't you start teaching Sister Qiuxia how to make rice noodles tomorrow? Once she learns it, she'll have a skill, and she'll be able to hold her head high in her husband's family."
Before Su Nanxi could react, she muttered to herself, "Right! Sister Qiuxia is free tomorrow morning, you can teach her tomorrow!"
Well?!
Su Nanxi raised an eyebrow. "You should teach me when you have time?"
She's busy!
Who are you? How dare you speak like that!
Everyone else's faces fell when they heard Mo Yunmei's words, but Mo Yunmei herself didn't feel that anything was wrong at all. She even felt that she had done a good deed again, and that Sister Qiuxia would definitely be very happy!
Worried that Mo Yunmei might anger Su Nanxi and get slapped away, Old Madam Mo quickly scolded her, "How dare you speak to your sister-in-law like that? Where has your manners gone! Instead of worrying about other people's business, you should worry about yourself!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Yunmei seemed to have something stirring in her heart. She pouted and said unhappily, "Mother, you still dare to say that! You won't let me go on a blind date, how am I supposed to worry about my own affairs? I've already said that I'm not young anymore, that I'm of marriageable age, but you always refuse to let the matchmaker come to our door!"
Mo Yunmei has indeed gone to another world and failed to understand her mother's good intentions.
Mo Lao Er said irritably, "You're starving to death, and you're so lazy, who would want you! First, understand your situation, figure out how to eat well every day, and live a smart life, otherwise who would dare to hire you!"
Mo Yunmei felt she understood life very well, so what was so difficult about it? "It's simple. I'm still unmarried and in the Mo family. If I want to eat well every day, just make sure you leave me plenty of food every day. That way, I can take good care of myself!"
The others instantly lost their voices; if they said anything more, they would feel like fools!
You actually dared to argue with an idiot? What else could you be but an idiot!
Mo Yunmei thought it was feasible. She used to live the same kind of life, with so many people pampering and indulging her, solving all her problems for her. All she had to do was act cute, cry, and make a fuss, and she could get anything she wanted.
It's not impossible in the future, it's totally feasible! Three meals a day, delicious food as soon as she wakes up, and new clothes to change into. She can even sneak off and not do any work. This life is just as good as it gets!
She was still lost in her sweet dream when she turned around and found that everyone had disappeared, leaving her all alone, grinning foolishly!
Why did they all leave without even saying goodbye?
Everyone finished washing up and lay down to rest. After a long day, isn't it better to relax? Why try to outdo an idiot in being silly?
Mo Qinghe asked softly, "Wife, you really don't want to start a small workshop?"
Su Nanxi nodded, unwilling.
"How about we open a small steamed bun workshop in the future?"
Yes, as the breakfast business grows, we can eventually build a small workshop to wholesale steamed buns and let others sell them in other places.
"Honey, your idea seems pretty good! I'd like to learn it too, so I can make a batch myself in the future."
Making steamed buns doesn't actually require much skill; it's just a matter of practice makes perfect. Once you're skilled enough, you can even make different variations!
While you're busy making steamed buns, don't forget to read and write!
"Does my wife want me to become the top scholar in the imperial examination? I practice calligraphy diligently every day whenever I have free time!"
Sigh! Having more skills is never a bad thing. In this life, having more skills that others don't have makes you stand out from the crowd! You won't starve to death in the future!
Furthermore, reading can enlighten one's mind, increase one's wisdom, and cultivate one's character.
"Yes! My wife is right. I'll study and practice hard from now on!"
