Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 138 The dining table at home

After completing the task, Yang Qian suddenly felt very tired.

It's not physical tiredness, but mental tiredness.

Although the whole process seemed to be going smoothly in Mount Paektu, Yang Qian's heart was actually very tense the entire time. In the midst of life and death, no matter how brave he was, he dared not relax at all, otherwise, wouldn't it be an unjust death to lose his life?
So after completing the task and feeling relaxed, Yang Qian suddenly felt mentally exhausted and didn't want to move.

He rejected the suggestion of his subordinates to go to a brothel to have a drink to welcome him, saying that they should go to another time. Yang Qian returned home feeling tired.

"Qian'er! Are you back?"

My mother Xu Yingyi was wearing a fine brocade gown, with her hair tied up and a headdress, and her face was rosy. She looked a little more prosperous than before.

However, Xu Ying's eyes remained the same when looking at her eldest son, filled with some worry and joy.

This time, the eldest son was away on business for more than half a month. I heard that he was going to suppress bandits. The worried Xu Ying had nightmares and couldn't sleep well for several days.

Now that the eldest son has returned, he heard that there was a great victory! Xu Ying was overjoyed and patted the eldest son for a long time to see if he was injured.

"Mom, don't worry. I'm the only one who will deal with others out there. No one can hurt me!" Yang Qian said with a smile.

He turned around and saw his younger brother Yang Xun coming over, also with a look of joy on his face.

These were all true feelings, Yang Qian could tell. He himself was also like this, and his tiredness seemed to be alleviated a little when he returned home and saw the smiles of his mother and brother.

In the main hall, there were three meat dishes, three vegetable dishes and a soup on the round table. None of them were exquisite dishes, but the taste was definitely authentic Sandaocheng style, and each dish was very filling. The three members of the Yang family preferred this kind of plain food. They felt that fancy things were pointless.

Xu Ying was the one talking most of the time at the table. In the past half month, she had traveled around the entire Sanda City and even visited several scenic spots nearby for outings.

"Madam Wang is very enthusiastic. If she hadn't accompanied me these days, I wouldn't have known that there are so many good places around Sandao City, especially the waterfall in the east. The fish there are really good. Qian'er, I will bring you more next time. The last time I brought back, all of them were eaten by that brat Yang Xun."

How could Yang Qian not have eaten the small-scaled barracuda from the eastern waterfall? The fish was the most delicious when used to make hot and sour fish soup.

"Mom, I've been in Sandao City for so many years. How could I not have eaten small-scaled barracuda? It's not easy to buy, and it's easy to die if you keep it in the tank. There's no need to keep it. Just eat it if you have it."

"Mom, I'm right, right? What hasn't Big Brother eaten in Sandao City?"

Xu Ying rolled his eyes at Erzi and said, "How dare you be so proud! Your big brother gave you so much money, but you, a stinky boy, used it all to cause trouble. If you don't give me an explanation, I will break your legs!"

"Mom, why am I such a troublemaker?"

"Humph! You spent so much money to decorate a shop, and you decorated it better than our house! In such a big shop, there are only a few tables and cabinets, what a shame to make it so empty? You even put fruits on the table and said people can eat them for free. Isn't this just a waste of money?"

Xu Ying became more and more angry as she spoke, and she was forced to stop only when Yang Qian put the third piece of pork ribs in her bowl. She enjoyed her eldest son's filial piety, but still glared at her second son.

Yang Qian understood, but he didn't find it strange. When he first heard Yang Xun's business idea, his first reaction was to wonder if his brother had also traveled through time, not to mention Xu Ying. It was normal for him to not understand or even question it.

After all, Yang Xun's business methods seem strange and unusual to most people in this world.

"Mom, you don't have to worry about Yang Xun. I own 70% of his business. If he dares to mess around, I will punish him."

Xu Ying laughed when he heard this and kept praising his eldest son for his ability.

Seeing this, Yang Xun could only hold the bowl and smile bitterly. "So your shop is ready?" After comforting his mother, Yang Qian talked to his brother about the first business he had started at home while eating.

"Well, brother, you are a great searcher. You found a shop that met my requirements in just two days. There were three, and I chose one. They also helped me cut the rent by 10%, which was a great help.

The decorator was also contacted by the person you asked. He has good skills and is fast. It was completed the day before yesterday, and the furniture I asked someone to make was also moved in.

We have been trying to let people in to test the store since yesterday.”

Yang Qian was not worried about his brother's business methods. At least they sounded fine.

"Where are the goods? How are the goods prepared? That is your foundation."

"Hey, brother, ask my mother how about what I made?" Yang Xun was very confident and proudly asked his mother to speak.

Yang Qian subconsciously looked at Xu Ying.

"Qian'er, the ointment your brother made is amazing. I'm almost 60 years old now. After using it a few times, the skin on my face and neck has really changed a lot."

After Xu Ying said this, Yang Qian also noticed that his mother's skin color was indeed more radiant than before.

"Mom has such an effect at her age, I think those girls will definitely buy it!" Although Xu Ying often dislikes Yang Xun, she is still very confident in what Yang Xun makes. She is also full of hope that her second son can return to the right path.

Yang Xun continued, "Brother, before you left, didn't you help me deliver a lot of rouge, powder, and perfume to the big merchants and officials in Sandao City? Hey, when I was testing the store yesterday, all those people came to the store to introduce themselves, not one was missing!"

"So you sold a lot yesterday?"

"Hey, what are you selling, brother? Talking about money at such a good opportunity will hurt our feelings!"

"Falling in love costs money, right?" Yang Qian curled his lips, as if he saw two words on Yang Xun's face, which was 70% similar to his own: profiteer.

Yang Xun was stunned by Yang Qian's retort, then he laughed and said that his eldest brother understood him best.

"Brother, you are right! Talking about feelings with them means hurting their money! I gave them some rouge, powder and perfume in a copper box, but there was not much in it.

The families of these big businessmen and officials are not short of money, and they even worry about how to spend the money. When they received the things I gave them, at least their reaction in their minds was "I can't take this thing for free" because it would cheapen their money!

So they either buy more and more often, or recommend it to their friends and relatives. Most of these people's friends and relatives are also rich people, so our shop becomes popular.

What's more, the things we have are genuine good stuff, things that other places don't have at all.

Also, if they take the things I give them, they will have a better reason to accept the higher prices when the things are officially sold later."

Yang Qian felt itchy after hearing this.

Profiteer!

Fortunately it’s our own!
