Chapter 54 New plan
"Okay, then tell me, mother, listen." Because Jiang Yao was absent-minded when cooking, Lu came here to visit her daughter.

The mother and daughter sat by the bed, and Jiang Yao thoughtfully covered Lu's knees with a thin quilt to prevent the temperature from getting cold at night, and then she opened her mouth.

"Mother, if all the people in our village start to go up the mountain to look for chestnuts and catch the cicada monkeys, then the daily quantity will be huge. You don't have to worry about the cicada monkeys. There are still shortages of chestnuts at the restaurant every day, but the chestnuts It won't work."

Seeing that my daughter was a little distressed when she talked about this, Lu's slender brows were also tightly frowned.

"Mother heard from your second aunt. I wanted to tell you about it after dinner, but you kept thinking about it, so mother didn't say anything."

"Well, that's what I was thinking about."

Knowing that Lu Shi has always cared about her, Jiang Yao felt warm in her heart, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Mom, I've thought about it. The daily amount that restaurants can accept is basically fixed. It's not an option to just supply restaurants. I want to open a shop selling snacks by myself, so that the sales will expand a lot."

"Girl, your idea is not bad. It's just that there are only so many people in our town, and there are already several snack shops. If you open another one, I'm afraid..."

Jiang Yao knew that Lu Shi hadn't finished talking, and she probably wanted to say that she was afraid that she would not be able to compete, after all, they have regular customers.But taking into account her mood, she didn't say it directly.

She smiled and blinked at Lu Shi, and held Lu Shi's big hand in her palm.

"Thank you for your reminder, mother. But there is a way to do this. Instead of retailing, I can do wholesale. In this way, they all have to come to me to get the goods, and at the same time, I didn't compete with them for business."

"And, in this way, I can supply them, and I can prevent them from imitating."

"So you've thought about all these things." Finally, Lu's face showed a smile again, and his eyes were full of relief.

"If your younger sisters know that you have such an idea, they will definitely praise you in another way."

"Hey, let them boast. When they follow me, just don't cry tired."

"Okay, mother will be with you at that time." Lu Shi patted his daughter's head, only to feel that her eyes and nose were a little sore.

Not wanting to lose her composure in front of her daughter, she chatted with her daughter a few more times before returning to her room.

The next day, Jiang Yao told her sister about it.In her eyes, although the younger sisters are young, they are all smart, and they might be able to give her some advice.

In addition, she wanted to use this incident to teach her younger sisters the skills of counting.

"Yu'er, apart from me, you are older than both of them, and you will be going to a private school next month. My sister wants you to learn about arithmetic, would you like it?"

"As long as the eldest sister is willing to teach, Yu'er is willing to learn." Jiang Yu's eyes are shining, she really likes to learn.

Besides her, the fourth sister Jiang Xin was also eager to try, looking at Jiang Yao with the same expectation.

"Don't panic, each of you must learn the basic arithmetic, so as not to be deceived when you go out in the future."

However, Jiang Yao didn't intend to let the younger sisters do mental calculations directly. After all, the younger sisters have never been in contact with it before, so it's better to start with pen calculations.

Of course, there were not so many pens at home, so she gave each of the younger sisters a wooden stick, and then found a fairly flat land in the yard, and began to talk to the younger sisters about making money.

"If we open a wholesale shop in the future, the price of chestnuts will not be as high as that of a restaurant. Then let's assume that we can sell two hundred catties a day, and the price will be [-] Wen per catty."

"The purchase price is ten renminbi a catty. You all know that if you add sugar, oil and honey in the production process, the cost of a catty is calculated at thirteen renminbi. Do you calculate how much money you can make with these two hundred catties?" How many?"

The younger sisters frowned, but none of them gave up because they found it difficult. The three younger sisters each had their own way.

But what Jiang Yao didn't expect was that the first one to calculate this account was actually the younger sister Jiang Xin, and the result was correct.

Jiang Yao looked at the little girl appreciatively, and said in an encouraging tone, "Xin'er, tell the sisters how you calculate, okay?"

"Okay." Jiang Xin nodded her head, pointing to her calculation process and explaining slowly.

"If I want to figure out how much two hundred catties are, then I have to figure out how much one catty is first."

"I still don't know the method used by my sister and the others. I can only draw twenty circles instead, and then cross out the thirteen circles of the cost, leaving seven circles."

"I heard my mother said when she was shopping for vegetables, that a zero should be added to the end of ten catties, and two zeros should be added to one hundred catties, so one hundred catties is seven hundred. Now there are two seven hundred, I'll just..."

The next thing the little girl will do is to split it up and move over three hundred to get one thousand, and add the remaining four hundred to get fourteen.

Knowing that the younger sister was due to her mother's calculations, Jiang Yue and Jiang Xin began to reflect on themselves.

If they didn't pay too much attention before, they wouldn't be so slow now.

Seeing the two younger sisters reflect on themselves, Jiang Yao was very satisfied.

As a human being, it is not scary to occasionally make a small mistake. The scariest thing is knowing that you have made a mistake and not thinking about making up for it or making progress.

She raised her hand and patted each of the two younger sisters on the shoulders, her tone pretending to be mysterious.

"I have a method here that can make you count faster, are you willing to learn it?"

"willing!"

The three younger sisters immediately said yes in unison, and all looked at Jiang Yao eagerly, but Jiang Yao didn't tell them directly, but kept a serious face.

"Of course you are willing to learn, but you must promise me that you can only use this method in your heart, and you cannot write it on paper, let alone let others know."

"Even if it's Brother Yang from the second aunt's family, you can't tell him, otherwise, we may be treated as monsters or arrested and locked up."

Jiang Yao deliberately made the consequences more serious, and the younger sisters nodded with their lips tightly shut in fear.

Seeing that the younger sisters expressed that they would keep their mouths shut, Jiang Yao taught them the formula in a low voice.

"One plus one equals two, one plus two equals three, one plus three equals..."

She recited a sentence, and her younger sisters followed suit, until her mouth became dry, and she finally finished reciting the addition formula from one to ten.

Except for the third sister Jiang Yue, the other two sisters remembered very quickly, but Jiang Yue was willing to learn from the other two sisters, so Jiang Yao relaxed.

Thinking that even if she only sells chestnuts in the future, she can earn one or two taels of silver a day, and the younger sister's health is much better now, Jiang Yao is very happy.

But the younger sister's medicine is almost finished. Although she has money to buy medicine for her younger sister, she still hasn't forgotten the appointment with the doctor to send the medicinal materials to the pharmacy.

However, Wei Chengye had been away for several days and hadn't come back, so she had to go up the mountain to find things by herself.
