The Qingshan and Qingsong brothers have recently been secretly preparing for the selection of a site for a hot pot base factory and the acquisition of personnel.
Considering Master Su's connections, the two families are now practically in the same boat, so why not make the most of it!
After the young man learned that the two were related to the owner behind Ke Siyunlai, his attitude changed drastically, and he became extremely obsequious!
The best personnel should be given priority in selection.
Workshops in prime locations were given free choice.
No need to haggle, the lowest price is fine.
The series of actions made the two brothers a little embarrassed.
But who are those brothers?
Sorry, sorry, anyway, the workshop and the people have already bought them!
Without any prior arrangement, they all ended up under their mother's name!
Next, we settled these people into their positions in the workshop, then contacted Master Su to speed up the delivery of spices. After that, the workshop went into production, and we could supply as much hot pot base as needed!
That's how the situation unfolds.
Master Su was overjoyed and even gave Wu Guanghua a sum of money as a reward!
Wu Guanghua was surprised by his employer's sudden generosity and worked even harder.
His wife, however, knew exactly what was going on and told him to take good care of the Wu brothers, saying there would be many benefits to come!
That makes sense. Wu Guanghua immediately understood. Having nothing else to do, he would go to the hot pot restaurant to deliver some tea and snacks, showing his care for the younger generation.
Unfortunately, he didn't run into the person he wanted to see for several days in a row, so he had to leave disappointed.
April is a time of blooming flowers and vibrant human life.
They shed their heavy winter coats and put on spring robes.
It's colorful and vibrant, so festive!
The Jiang family divided the money again. The gross profit from the hot pot base last month was 1,300 taels. After deducting various expenses, Jiang Yue received 600 taels of silver, and her two sons each received 300 taels of silver.
The hot pot restaurant was also doing very well, with a gross profit of more than 100 taels more than the month before last, totaling 876 taels of silver. After deducting costs and labor expenses, the net profit was 720 taels.
Jiang Yue calculated the amount one by one, and each of her sons received a total of 480 taels of silver last month!
She received 960 taels of silver!
After the pharmaceutical factory went into operation, the gross profit last month was 57 taels. After deducting labor costs and other expenses, the net gross profit was around 30 taels.
She currently has over 1,900 taels of silver on hand!
Qingshan and Qingsong handed the workshop land deeds and ten indentures they had prepared over this period of time to their mother for safekeeping.
They spent 160 taels to buy the workshop and 100 taels to buy people, totaling 260 taels. The two brothers split the cost equally, with each contributing 130 taels.
After hearing this, Jiang Yue wanted to use public funds to repay her sons.
But both brothers refused the money in unison!
"Mother, consider this a gift from your sons to show our respect."
"Yes, Mother, the workshop and these people can all make money. Then we can also share the profits from the public funds."
The two brothers had a lot of money on hand, so they didn't worry too much about the 130 taels.
Since they are all under Mother's care, she will not harm them or mistreat them!
If we make money, we'll still share it with them. What's there for them to complain about?!
"Alright, tomorrow I'll take Mother to town to see the new workshop, and how you've settled these people?"
Jiang Yue has been busy with the pharmaceutical factory lately, and before she knew it, her two sons had prepared such a big gift for her!
Wow, that's kind of touching~
"Mom, you'll see for yourself when you come to town with us tomorrow."
Qingshan kept everyone in suspense for a moment, then collected the money his mother had given to the eldest son's family, handed it to his silly wife, and smiled gently.
"Yes, Mother, please look around some more and see if there's anyone suitable to do chores around the house. My sister-in-law is pregnant and it's inconvenient for her to work. Your health is precious, so you can't overwork yourself."
Qingsong chimed in, the two brothers working together seamlessly, making it impossible for anyone to refuse.
"You're so good with words!"
Jiang Yue smiled broadly, looking at her two sons who had grown up to be capable of standing on their own, she felt truly gratified!
I wonder how the third one is doing. Judging by the days, the results should be out by now...
After the couple returned home after a heavy snowfall, they resumed their monotonous routine of counting and handling money.
"Wife, are you unhappy?"
Qingshan brought over hot water for his wife to soak her feet, while he massaged her legs and feet to loosen her muscles and bones.
"Sigh, I can't believe it! We have enough money in our hands to live comfortably for the rest of our lives!"
Da Xue took a silver ingot, wiped it with her handkerchief, and took another bite while talking.
"Hiss~"
It left a string of teeth marks, which looked quite nice no matter how you looked at it.
Qingshan gently placed his wife's feet into the warm water, grinning as he said:
"I don't mind having too much money. I'm just tired of the hard life I used to live. Now I just want to earn more money to support my mother, and to support us and our future children!"
"My husband, you've suffered so much. We'll never live like that again. Let's live a good life and take good care of Mother."
Da Xue put down the silver and gently rested her head on her husband's shoulder, soothing his heart with her understanding.
She cherishes the good life she has now!
"Tomorrow, I'll pick someone to come and work around the house. That way, you and I will have an easier time. Our mother can't do manual labor; we have to support her."
"Yes, yes, that's what I think too. Mother should be like Mr. Lu, respected and admired by others."
The couple whispered to each other, then quickly turned off the lights and went to sleep...
Poor pine tree, it has plenty of silver, but no one to share it with.
Oh, Fangfang, where have you gone?
Yao Yao was probably the only one at home who was carefree. She was already fast asleep, dreaming that Master Lu was teaching her characters, that she was sitting next to Xiao Xue, and that Brother Yin was behind her reminding her not to doze off. But she didn't doze off!
Oh no, she should be sleeping, oh no, she...
Jiang Yue opened the window and let some fresh air in.
She kept only some of the silver for household use, placing it in a box in the wardrobe so that Yao Yao could access it at any time.
She allocated the rest of the silver to the income system.
It's embarrassing to think about it now, but the system space didn't play much of a role in her hands; she used it for storage and exchanging snacks and the like.
She'd already been lucky to get something useful from the million-dollar purchase; as for the rest, she couldn't think of anything else for the time being.
People should be content with what they have!
At the Wu family's old house, Old Master Wu recently started working at a pharmaceutical factory. His employer settled his wages for last month: 130 copper coins!
The old man hadn't earned this much money on his own in a long time, and he happily counted it several times before going to bed.
This left Old Mrs. Zhou, who was standing to the side, both amused and exasperated. Exhausted, she couldn't help but kick her husband and say:
"You old codger, stop tossing and turning! If you're not going to sleep, I'm going to sleep too!"
"Old woman, tell the eldest son to go to town to buy meat tomorrow. My granddaughter-in-law has been married into the family for so long, and I haven't treated her to meat yet."
"You're so smug. Okay, go to sleep now, so I can tell Dalang tomorrow morning~"
"Sigh~"
