Chapter 109 Human Nature (2/2)



This is based on the price in the county town. For two tables of food, the amount I gave was actually quite a lot, far more than the amount for one plate in the county town.

She accepted the money.

Only the village chief Wang in the distance twitched his eyes. He wondered, is it so profitable to open a shop here? More than two hundred coins a day.

As a village chief, even though his family lived a better life than other villagers, they could only afford to eat black noodles. He had never eaten in a restaurant in the county town in his life and had no idea about the prices in the restaurant.

At this moment, he only saw Qian Chunhua cook an ordinary meal. Although the dishes were extremely delicious, he received twenty taels of silver. He was jealous.

Compared to working on the ground, cooking in the kitchen is much easier, but no one thinks highly of this job as it can not make so much money.

Who doesn’t know how to cook?

It was not until County Magistrate Zhou and his family left the shop that Village Chief Wang was still devastated by the thought of paying 20 taels for a meal and was unable to recover for a long time.

Village chief Wang walked back home, one foot low and one foot high. A meal cost twenty taels, and looking at the chicken, fish, meat, etc., it would not cost more than one tael of silver to buy food.

So from this meal, Qian Chunhua could earn a full nineteen taels?

Thinking back to the last time when five carriages came, it seemed that Qian Chunhua had deceived the villagers by saying that he had earned two hundred coins.

The village chief was not tempted by the two hundred coins. He had a large family and could earn the money back in three to five days by simply working hard as a laborer for the county magistrate. It could be anything.

But with twenty taels of silver right in front of him, Village Chief Wang was confused.

The amount of silver their family had saved was less than twenty taels, but Qian Chunhua earned that much just from one meal.

Village chief Wang was confused, jealous and envious.

But he did not dare to act rashly. After all, the visit of County Magistrate Zhou and his family today made him see one thing clearly: Qian Chunhua caught the attention of County Magistrate Zhou and his family with her cooking skills.

He also wanted such a profitable shop, but he didn't dare to rob it.

What to do?

Qian Chunhua noticed the envious expression on Village Chief Wang's face when he left. Looking at Village Chief Wang's back, Qian Chunhua also fell into deep thought.

Qian Chunhua deliberately did not want the villagers to know her income. Although she did not rely on it for a living, it also brought her a lot of income.

Qian Chunhua also knew that in the eyes of farmers who made a living from the land all their lives, earning two hundred coins was already a great achievement, let alone twenty taels?

Qian Chunhua was worried that Village Chief Wang had also become jealous.

But Qian Chunhua was not afraid. She had already made up her mind to go to the provincial capital. She just wanted to reunite with the villagers of Huangling Mountain as soon as possible and did not want to have a falling out again.

Moreover, the world is in a turbulent situation nowadays, and opening a shop here is not a long-term solution.

If Village Chief Wang is really jealous of his shop, Qian Chunhua doesn't mind giving it to him. However, Qian Chunhua can't guarantee whether the shop can make money in the end.

Qian Chunhua dare not underestimate human nature.
