At Tian Hengyuan's suggestion, the village also opened a literacy class.
The teacher teaches children during the day and teaches villagers at night. The village chief thought this was a good idea, so he found the volunteer teacher and offered to pay the evening tuition separately so that the two teachers could take turns teaching the villagers.
The two volunteer teachers, Mr. Wu and Mr. Fan, were recent college graduates. They were very motivated and were moved by the villagers. They volunteered to help them with literacy, but they firmly refused the tuition fees.
In the end, the village chief couldn't persuade the two men, as they were told not to make mistakes.
The village chief had no choice but to give up, but suggested that the village solve the problem of food for the two people.
This is his bottom line. If you don’t agree, the literacy class will have to be cancelled.
After discussing it, the two had no choice but to agree. Although they ate in the village, they cleared a small vegetable patch and raised a few chickens and ducks, intending to be self-reliant.
The Hope Primary School in the village received good news, and Wang Xiaohong’s bun shop also received good news.
They chose the auspicious day of the seventh day of the sixth lunar month, and after a string of crocuses crackled, Wang's Baozi Shop officially opened.
On this day, everyone came to help. There was a big opening sale: six buns for one dollar, a free bowl of preserved egg and lean meat porridge, and all you could eat of pickled vegetables.
The thick, fragrant and salty porridge, paired with soup dumplings, lightens the greasy taste and is a perfect match.
Tian Chengcheng ate five soup dumplings in one go, plus a bowl of century egg and lean meat porridge.
She was so full that she kept rubbing her stomach and couldn't sit still, so she helped to greet customers, serve buns and carry plates.
Fu Xinhan followed behind her, feeling very worried.
"Fubao, stop working so hard. Don't get hurt accidentally."
Fu Xinhan was afraid that Tian Chengcheng would get bumped or hurt, especially when he saw her slender arms, he always felt that they would break if she was not careful.
Tian Chengcheng didn't care at all, she was quite happy being busy.
"I'm fine, not tired. Don't follow me all the time. Just go about your business."
"I'm afraid you'll fall."
"I'm not a three-year-old child, how could I possibly fall? Don't think too much, just go about your business."
Tian Chengcheng thinks Fu Xinhan is in the way and wants to kick him out.
Fu Xinhan refused to leave, but he didn't nag her anymore. He just followed her silently and rushed to lend a hand.
Wang Nuo couldn't stand it any longer and snatched the plate from her hand. "Fubao, you go to the counter to collect the money and leave the serving of the plates to me. I can do ten of yours. Look at you, you're not even as tall as the table. Others have to lower their heads when they walk, for fear of stepping on you."
Tian Chengcheng: “…” She turned her head silently and looked at the table.
Okay, second sister, you win!
In order not to cause trouble, she had to go to the counter and collect money while standing on a stool. In her spare time, she couldn't help but look at everyone. Even Wang Hui and Runyu were half a head taller than the table, which meant they were half a head taller than her.
This small body - why doesn't it grow taller?
Do you want to go to the hospital?
She pinched her little arms, which were indeed pitifully thin, like a small stick.
Fu Xinhan noticed her confusion and said, "Eat more and you'll grow taller."
Tian Chengcheng didn't want to pay attention to him.
Does she eat less? One meal is almost as much as an adult's.
The key point is that people around her always feel that she is not full and give her some food from time to time, especially Fu Xinhan. She almost suspects that he has Doraemon's treasure chest and keeps taking things out.
Just as he was thinking, Fu Xinhan took out a bottle of Wahaha and said, "Here, drink more."
Tian Chengcheng glanced at the Wahaha, picked it up and drank it as if she was relieved.
At the end of the day, everyone was busy as a bee, even Tian Chengcheng and Fu Xinhan, who were in charge of collecting the money, were exhausted. Tian Chengcheng was responsible for collecting the money, while Fu Xinhan was busy sorting it out, putting the money of the same value together, and wrapping it up with paper when it was ten or fifty yuan for the final settlement.
The two money drawers are almost full.
He was busy until 9:30 in the evening. Finally, after seeing off the last table of guests, Wang Nuo quickly closed the door.
"Oh my god, this day has exhausted me!"
Wang Xiaohong, Wang Feng and Aunt Zhang came over with soup dumplings and preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
Zhang Youcai was also busy all day. Aunt Zhang worked as a helper in the bun shop and specially fried a few simple side dishes, including scrambled eggs with green onions, a plate of pork head, a dish of peanuts and some cold dishes.
After the group finished eating, they prepared to count the results of today's battle.
Zhang Youcai immediately pulled Aunt Zhang out, "Mom, let's go wash the dishes. We also need to prepare the stuffing for tomorrow. Let's go."
Aunt Zhang didn't want to leave. With such a booming business, she wanted to know how much money she had made.
However, Zhang Youcai did not give her a chance and directly pulled her away.
Seeing Hu Zi also wanted to help, Wang Xiaohong felt embarrassed, "Brother Hu Zi, don't go. Take a rest. You've been busy all day today."
"Sister-in-law, I'm not tired. I'll go take a look at the back." Hu Zi said and left.
Wang Feng and Runyu also followed.
In the end, only Wang Xiaohong, Wang Nuo, Tian Chengcheng and Fu Xinhan were left.
Tian Chengcheng taught Wang Nuo how to keep accounts. No matter the size of the business, the accounts must be clear. Cultivating business from a small scale should be regarded as training.
Wang Nuo studied very hard.
First list the meat, vegetables, noodles, and seasonings used today, followed by the labor costs. Others may not be counted, but Wang Xiaohong, Wang Nuo, and Aunt Zhang must be paid.
Because Wang Xiaohong is the master and Wang Nuo is the general manager, they both have the same salary. Aunt Zhang is considered a handyman, but considering the long working hours in the bun shop, it is recommended to settle the bill by the hour, for example, fifty cents an hour, which is five dollars for ten hours, so you can be a little more flexible with the time.
"Fifty cents an hour, from five in the morning to nine at night, that's sixteen hours, nine dollars a day, two hundred and seventy dollars a month?" Wang Nuo was shocked. "Isn't that too much?"
Tian Chengcheng didn't expect it to be so much, almost as much as the salary of the factory director.
"Then I'll pay her 120 yuan a month. Only when she's paid enough can she work hard! When there are no customers, Aunt Zhang can still rest.
If the bun shop continues to be so popular, I suggest hiring a few hourly workers to wash vegetables and so on, two or three hours a day, and paying 50 cents an hour is fine, because that hour will basically not be idle. "
"Okay." Wang Nuo agreed and then wrote down the monthly salary of the three people.
Wang Xiaohong and Wang Nuo earn 180 yuan a month, and Aunt Zhang earns 120 yuan a month. Averaged out to 30 days, that's 6 yuan a day and 4 yuan a day.
Finally, after counting the total price, I sold it for 790 yuan. After deducting the cost, the net profit was 360 yuan.
"Mom, I'm rich, I'm rich." Wang Nuo was so excited that his voice trembled.
Because Tian Chengcheng invested in the bun shop and she paid for it, they split the profits 50-50. In addition to their wages, they also earned about 180 yuan a day.
Wang Xiaohong also shed tears of excitement.
There was too much money and she couldn't count it all at once.
But she knew that she had completely turned her life around. Looking at the stacks of money, it seemed as if all the fatigue of the day had disappeared.
"Mom, you make so much money, why are you crying?" Wang Nuo said, but his tears flowed even harder.
In the end, the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.
