"It's called a panda. Some people call it an iron-eating beast, while others call it a Pixiu. It has black and white fur, and a round face with a pair of big black eye circles and sparkling little eyes. It's very cute." Yang Youxue explained the characteristics of the panda, and everyone was imagining what the panda looked like.
A light bulb went off in Yang Qingman's head, and she thought of how to make a puppet. She picked up a piece of cloth and began to cut it according to her idea.
Yang Qingyao thought of how to make a panda pendant, and she started to make it.
Huang Lijuan made a medium-sized puppet according to the blueprint. She was not as smart as her two daughters, nor did she have such good craftsmanship, so she had to make the puppet step by step.
Yang Qingpei, Yang Qingyou and Yang Youxue watched them making puppets with full concentration.
In her previous life, Yang Youxue's craftsmanship was better than Yang Qingman and Yang Qingyao's.
She wanted to do it but didn't dare to. If a three-year-old girl did better than them, her family would become suspicious.
When Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng came in, they saw this scene of "peaceful years and a peaceful world." They didn't want to disturb them and just watched quietly from the side.
The first one to finish was Yang Qingyao. The pendant she made was relatively small and not complicated. After she finished it, she showed it to her fifth sister.
"Fifth sister, what do you think of what my second sister did?" Yang Qingyao asked Yang Youxue.
Yang Youxue looked at the pendant and was very satisfied. She believed that many young men would rush to buy it once it came out.
"Second sister, this pendant is very beautiful. It would be better to make a batch of women's pendants." Yang Youxue suggested to Yang Qingyao.
"Fifth sister is right. Second sister is making a women's pendant now and giving it to dad." After Yang Qingyao said this, she gave the pendant to Yang Zhongyi.
Everyone saw Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng, and the five sisters of the Yang family called out to them.
"Dad, Second Uncle, you are here, please take a seat."
"Don't worry about us, just do your job." Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng said.
"Erniu, why don't you make one for your second uncle?" Yang Zhongcheng looked at the pendant that his elder brother couldn't let go of, and he also wanted one.
"Second Uncle, if you keep calling me Erniu, I won't let you do it. You have to call me Qingyao, okay? Erniu is so unfashionable." Yang Qingyao corrected Yang Zhongcheng.
"Okay, Second Uncle gets it. Don't call me Erniu next time. Make one for me." Yang Zhongcheng begged.
"I'll make it for my second uncle later." After saying that, Yang Qingyao concentrated on making the women's pendant.
Soon, the women's pendant was made, and Qingman's big doll was also made. It was one meter high. She gave this big doll to her fifth sister.
The women's pendants were also given to Yang Youxue, and even the stuffed dolls made by Huang Lijuan were given to Yang Youxue. Yang Youxue couldn't carry so many, so she put them in the room.
"Dad, second uncle, what's the matter with you coming here?" Yang Youxue climbed into Yang Zhongyi's arms and asked Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng.
"Grandpa and grandma miss you and asked us to take you back today." Yang Zhongyi explained the purpose of coming here today.
"Okay, we'll go back with Dad later. Have you finished inspecting the store?" Yang Youxue asked Yang Zhongyi.
"I haven't gone yet. I'll come to find you as soon as I get to the county town." Yang Zhongyi pinched the little girl's nose and said.
"Dad, Second Uncle, you guys go and do your work. Finish as soon as possible so we can go back early." Yang Youxue jumped out of Yang Zhongyi's arms and said to them.
Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng had no choice but to go to the shop to get busy.
When we arrived at the "Yichengxin" hotpot restaurant, the business was average. It's summer now, so business would be worse.
"Boss, Second Boss, you are here." Shopkeeper Wu saw Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng coming over and stepped forward to ask.
"Well, how's business been lately?" Yang Zhongyi asked Shopkeeper Wu.
"Boss, business has been average recently. Many customers find it too hot to eat hotpot." Shopkeeper Wu told Yang Zhongyi what the customer said.
"I see. It's indeed a bit hot. If there are a lot of customers, go buy some ice and put it in the store to keep it cooler." Yang Zhongyi said to Shopkeeper Wu.
"Boss, ice is too expensive. It costs ten taels per catty, and only a few dollars per catty. It's not cost-effective at all." When Shopkeeper Wu heard that he was going to buy ice, he was shocked and couldn't believe it. Could it be that the boss didn't know how expensive ice was?
If you want to cool down the store, you need at least one hundred taels of silver. Besides, it will only stay cool for an hour, and then it will no longer be cool.
Yang Zhongyi also knew that ice was expensive, but in order to retain customers, he had no choice but to make less money.
As the saying goes, “You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing the child.”
"I know, this is the only solution, you can do it, okay?
"Show me the account books for the past few days, and then go back to your business," Yang Zhongyi said to Shopkeeper Wu.
"Yes, boss." Manager Wu took Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng to the accounting office, handed the account books he had made in the past few days to Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng, and then left.
There were only a few tables of customers eating hotpot in the lobby, and the waiter was standing by with nothing to do.
After Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng looked at the account book and learned about the income of the past few days, they said goodbye to Manager Wu and went to the "Yang Family Restaurant" across the street.
At this time, it was still dinner time and the business in the restaurant was booming. Many customers did not get seats and sat in the waiting room waiting for the other customers inside to finish their meals and leave.
"Boss, second boss, now that you are here, please go to the second floor and sit down. I will ask the kitchen to prepare a meal for you." The restaurant's manager Gao said to Yang Zhongyi and Yang Zhongcheng.
