After receiving her father's approval, Li Yan instantly became full of anticipation for tomorrow's trip.
"Dad, I want to sell this recipe to Piaoxianglou and recommend Uncle Zhou's fish. You don't know, ever since Uncle Zhou's family lost the restaurant's order, the fish have died because they can't be sold. It's such a pity that those fish died!"
Li Erlang replied, "We've eaten Zhou's fish before, and it's very fresh. If you can help us connect, let's give it a try. It's just a token of our gratitude for his son's help to our family a while ago!"
"Can you go alone tomorrow? Do you need me to accompany you?" Li Erlang asked
"Dad, you just went to the county government office, and you're thinking of asking for leave. It will have a bad impact. I can go by myself!" Li Yan replied.
His daughter is indeed brave now. After hearing her say this, Li Erlang no longer insisted.
Lin listened to the conversation between the father and daughter while eating pickled fish. This pickled fish was very suitable for her current taste, and the sour taste was very appetizing.
Early the next morning, Li Yan arrived at the dock at the agreed time.
Tietou saw Li Yan from a distance and waved to her: "Sister, sister."
Li Yan trotted to the dock and said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting!"
Zhou Bohan smiled and said, "It's no problem. We get up early and we're used to it!"
Li Yan sat on the boat next to Tietou and teased the little guy: "Tietou can also sell fish? He's really capable!"
Tietou shyly hid in Zhou Bo's arms.
"Hey, there's no one at home. Dalang will go with me later, so the child can only follow his uncle! All the children in the village are like this, they are carried wherever they go. Even the baby who can't walk is carried on his mother's back when she goes to the fields!" Uncle Zhou murmured.
Li Yan didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Seeing the wooden basin behind Uncle Zhou, he quickly changed the subject: "Did you catch the fish in that basin today?"
Uncle Zhou looked at the lively fish with both joy and worry in his heart: "That's right, if we can really sell it to that restaurant, you will be a great help to our family!"
The group exchanged greetings and soon arrived at the town's pier. Li Yan went ashore first.
Old Man Zhou and Zhou Dalang carried the wooden basin ashore and told their youngest son to keep an eye on Tietou. Then they followed Li Yan towards Piaoxiang Tower.
Li Yan led the two to the back door of Piaoxianglou: "Uncle Zhou, please wait here for a moment. I will go talk to the shopkeeper first."
Zhou Bo nodded repeatedly.
After settling the two of them, Li Yan went to the main entrance of Piaoxianglou. It was not yet time for dinner, so the building was not busy.
Li Yan stepped into the room and saw her cousin fiddling with an abacus behind the counter.
Li Yan couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. After not seeing her cousin for a while, she realized that he had made great progress and had even started working as an accountant!
Li Jianmin felt someone coming in. He looked up and saw it was his cousin. He quickly dropped the abacus in his hand and came to greet her: "Why are you here today? Did something happen at home?"
Something had indeed happened at home, but it had already been resolved. Li Yan didn't plan to tell her cousin about what had happened at home today. Instead, she asked directly, "Is Manager Qian here? I have a business deal I want to discuss with him!"
Li Jianmin was no longer surprised to hear his cousin say this: "Yes, it is, but you have to wait a while. The young master is coming today."
Then he led Li Yan into a private room and said, "Wait here for a moment. I'll go see if Manager Qian has come out!"
At this time, Shopkeeper Qian was standing in front of the table, reporting to the young master on the recent situation in the store.
