Chapter 60 Just call me like this from now on, I like it!
Like usual, it was another busy morning, and Tong Xiayue was woken up early by Ji Jiashu.
She held up her sleepy eyes and followed him to the northwest corner of the yard.
The empty space before was now covered with a wooden board. It was still dark, and Tong Xiayue couldn't see clearly. She turned to look at Ji Jiashu and asked, "What is this?"
Ji Jiashu took her hand and walked over carefully. He leaned over and lifted the wooden board, only to see a cellar under the board. The cellar was sealed tightly and filled with water. As soon as she walked in, she felt a wave of coolness.
Tong Xiayue was surprised and asked, "When did you do it?"
Ji Jiashu smiled and said, "Aren't you worried that the things would go bad? I started to do it the next day. It's best to store things underground. The temperature is low. I add well water. As long as you change the water frequently, there will be no problem. It will be fine for two or three days."
Tong Xiayue jumped up excitedly and hugged Ji Jiashu's neck: "Husband, you are great!"
Husband?
This title is only called by people in the city. It feels really good to be called by my wife suddenly!
Ji Jiashu: "Husband?"
He blurted it out in excitement. I don't even know if this title still exists in this era.
Tong Xiayue smiled awkwardly and said, "Well... that's it..."
Ji Jiashu stroked her back and said, "Call me like this from now on, I like it."
Just as the two were in a warm and sweet mood, there was a rustling sound in the yard. Wang Xiaojun and the others had come to prepare.
A few people went to the kitchen to see that the food had not been heated up yet, and they didn't see Tong Xiayue, which was strange. She had never been lazy. Every day before they came, the food had been heated up. What happened today?
Tong Xiayue heard the sound and quickly let go of Ji Jiashu's hand, shouting, "It's over, I haven't heated up the broth yet! It's too late!"
After that, she rushed into the kitchen, leaving Ji Jiashu standing there watching her leave.
After solving the problem of food preservation, everyone's recent anxiety was put to rest, and they worked with more energy.
Tong Xiayue has been to many towns recently and found several good locations. After returning home, she began to look for people to start a second business line. After
the family had dinner that day, Tong Xiayue shared her ideas with everyone.
Tong Xiayue: "Mom and Dad, I've been to other nearby towns recently and saw that there are not many places selling food in the town. For example, in Fangshan Town next door, there are so many factories, and there are schools around the factories. The children of employees go to school nearby, but there is no one selling breakfast early in the morning. I was thinking if I could make some simple breakfast to sell there."
Ji Zhiyong put down his chopsticks and said lightly: "Jiashu's wife, will this business go wrong if it goes there? Problem? The policy has not been officially announced yet, I am worried that there will be problems. "
Tong Xiayue was actually a little worried. In recent months, they have made a lot of money, but they always felt a little restrained and could not let go to work hard. But now the business opportunity is right in front of them. She also wanted to make more money this year and then move her family to live in the town. Of course, her goal is definitely not the town, this is just a transition.
Tong Xiayue: "Dad, when I was in Fangshan Town, I saw many small vendors selling apples, pheasants, wild ducks and so on. I went there several times. There are many people doing small business in these towns. I also asked someone. In fact, the government has relaxed its policy on this issue and generally does not interfere."
Hearing Tong Xiayue's words, Ye Lan said: "Old Ji, the children are for the family. We have to support them!"
Zhang Cuihua: "Dad, you are going to retire next year as the secretary. Our family can't just sit there and eat up all the money. My sister-in-law and I are very happy. You are a man with your own ideas. Our family has to do something now, otherwise you will be laughed at by others when you retire!"
Zhao Qian also helped, saying, "Yes, Dad, my sister-in-law and I can help your sister-in-law. If there is anything, everyone in the family can come together. Life will get better and better. But your sister-in-law, you still have to be careful outside. You must tell your family if there is anything."
Tong Xiayue saw that everyone in her family was supporting her small business. She felt indescribable warmth and gratitude in her heart, and her dream of bringing her family wealth became more concrete.
After that, Tong Xiayue started to open a new map for breakfast business. Although she had many ideas in mind, such as pancakes, pot stickers, fried dough sticks, glutinous rice balls, etc.,
the distance was not short after all, and these things needed to be made and eaten immediately. The taste and texture would change after a long time. Therefore, she wanted to prepare some things that were easy to store and sell.
It would be best if people could pay and take them away without further processing, such as buns, packaged soy milk, steamed dumplings, steamed buns, etc. These only needed to keep their temperature.
Just do it!
Tong Xiayue took out all the secret recipes she had when she was a blogger, and then went to the black market to buy a lot of flour and ingredients. Although she is rich now, she still doesn't have much money. She buys whatever she can on the black market.
In fact, she only buys a little on the black market each time, and the rest is taken out from the space, and it doesn't cost money. These ready-made materials can't be wasted!
Zhang Cuihua and Zhao Qian help Tong Xiayue every day, trying to make various breakfasts, and then let the family come together to taste and evaluate and give opinions.
In the end, after combining everyone's opinions, the breakfast recipe was decided to be large meat buns, wild vegetable buns, Shaomai, small steamed buns, and fresh soy milk.
As long as these things are steamed and packed in wooden barrels every day, they can be taken out for sale. After the dishes are decided, the next problem is transportation and personnel.
A few days later, Tong Xiayue secretly went to the town alone and found Brother Wang at the black market. She gave him some money and asked him to help find some reliable people in various towns to help do business together.
This time, the selection of personnel must be more careful and nothing can go wrong. We must find trustworthy people.
After repeated care, Brother Wang brought three people two days later.
These three people are from the surrounding towns, not far from Yangliu Village. They can get things from Qingshui Town back to other towns to sell them by getting up an hour earlier.
Tong Xiayue had seen a lot of people, and she knew that these three people were good people, but no one could guarantee whether they could maintain their previous character in the face of interests.
In order to make the business go smoothly, Tong Xiayue asked Ji Jiashu to help find someone to inquire about the family situations of these people, including their personalities and the behavior of their families.
Ji Jiashu asked his former comrades in the army for help. Two days later, he received news that these three people were from other villages with very difficult lives. One of them was a bachelor whose parents died of hunger, leaving him alone at home. The other two also had clean backgrounds and were from poor families. They both had families with children aged three or four. Both families were honest people without any bad intentions.
After hearing the news, Tong Xiayue was finally relieved. It seemed that her business plan could continue!
