The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 75 Preparations before opening the store
"I plan to open a shop in Jiangzhou, and I came here to ask you two brothers and sisters, would you like to go to Jiangzhou with me?" Yao Yu asked.

Yang Lan's expression brightened, Jiangzhou is so big, if he can go there, there will definitely be many opportunities, but what about Yang Gui, Yang Gui is still studying, although Master Peng always said that Yang Gui has good talent, but good talent can't Don't study.

Yao Yu explained his plan, "There is also a small courtyard behind the store I am going to buy, and you two, brother and sister, can still live in that courtyard. Xiaolan will help me make breakfast every day, and I will give you two meals a day. The salary of ten Wen is settled on a daily basis, and at the end of the month, more rewards will be given according to the usual expression, ranging from five hundred Wen to two taels of silver."

After finishing speaking, Yao Yu looked at Yang Gui again, "As for Xiaogui, there are many carpentry places in Jiangzhou, and I can find a place for Xiaogui to do carpentry, but Xiaogui is still young, so he may not be paid. .”

Yang Lan was a little surprised when she heard Yao Yu's wages, twenty Wen a day, six hundred Wen a month!If the reward of [-] Wen is added, there will be more than one or two taels of silver a month, and the key is to include food and housing. "Can I do other things after the store is closed?"

Yao Yu nodded, "I know the owner of Jiangzhou Zhenyifang, I will introduce you to her then, you can also be a female celebrity in your spare time."

When Yang Lan heard this, her expression became even more excited, but Yang Gui was a little confused. Master Peng told him that there are many people in Jiangzhou who are particularly skilled in carpentry, and even Master Peng is far behind them, so Yang Gui always I want to see it, but I am a little bit reluctant to part with Master Peng.

"You two don't need to rush to make a decision. I will go to Jiangzhou the day after tomorrow. If you decide to go with me, come to my house early in the morning." Yao Yu said, giving the two children a day and a half to think about it, it should be enough. .

After returning home, Yao Yu asked Nuoer for a piece of rice paper, then picked up a firewood stick from the stove, wrapped it in a useless cloth towel, and drew on the paper.

The furniture in this shop is very old. If Yao Yu bought it, he would have to replace all the furniture, and many of the layouts would have to be changed. Since the second and third floors of the shop can be used as boxes, then On the first floor, Yao Yu planned to replace all the tables with seats for two or at most four people, while the upstairs were all round tables.

As for the third floor, Yao Yu intends to use it as a personal rest room. He can buy some simple and elegant furnishings and hang it in the hall. Of course, the small house in the backyard is reserved for Yang Lan and Yang Gui, and it will be dark after Yao Yu finishes painting. .

On the twentieth day of the first lunar month, before Yao Yu got up, he heard noises outside.Today is the start of work, and many people are waiting to come to the back mountain to dig a few nests. Xie Zhimo and Yao Chang got up early in the morning. Seeing so many people, they simply led them to the back mountain.

Yao Yu simply got up to make breakfast, and began to think about what to sell for breakfast. Whole grain cakes are definitely a must. Steamed buns and steamed buns are the simplest and most basic breakfast. Yu also wanted to try the fungus noodles. The fungus was picked by Yao Yu in the mountains. There were several bags of fungus, which could be eaten for many years after soaking.

In addition, Yao Yu glanced at the three jars in the corner. Taking advantage of the early time this time, she wanted to push out the tofu mold. During the Chinese New Year, Yao Yu took out the tofu mold. Of course, everyone was a little puzzled at first. After the name of this food has the word "mould", I don't know how to use chopsticks.

It was Yao Yu who rolled out the outer layer of tofu mold, "The white tofu mold inside is not spicy. If you are not afraid of spicy food, you can eat it with the outer layer." After speaking, he ate it on his own.

When Yao Yu poked open the bean curd, Xie Zhimo could smell the fragrance. After a while, a small bowl of tofu was divided up by five people on the table. After the new year, the three jars of tofu The mold has gone to half a jar.

After Yao Yu made a list of the items to be sold, he started to fry the shortbread. After the store is sold out tomorrow, Yao Yu plans to spend a day or two to clean up the shop, and the shortbread can be stored for three days without any problem. After frying the shortbread, Yao Yu rolled out a lot of noodles.

In the early morning of the second day, when Yao Yu got up together, he saw Yang Lan and Yang Gui standing outside the door, both of them carrying luggage. In fact, the luggage was the bedding that Yao Yu had prepared for them in Hehua Town. clothes and such.

Seeing the red hands of the two sisters and younger brothers, Yao Yu felt distressed, "Why didn't you knock on the door?"

"We haven't had a big meeting just yet." Yang Lan said, they were afraid that they would disturb Yao Yu's family's rest if they knocked on the door.

Seeing the cold air on Yang Lan's body, Yao Yu knew that the two siblings must have arrived a long time ago, "Come in quickly." Then the person who went to the stove poured a cup of hot water for the two siblings, "Come on, drink this up first .”

Needless to ask, Yao Yu knew that the two siblings must have not eaten breakfast, and she rolled out the noodles yesterday for the opening, so this club directly ordered three bowls of pork shredded noodles, "After eating, we will go to Jiangzhou. "

While Yao Yu was eating, he ordered four more bowls of noodles. After Xie Zhimo and the others woke up, they were delicious. Yang Lan and Yang Gui hadn't eaten Yao Yu's noodles for a long time, and they were eating delicious noodles in the kitchen.

After the three of them finished their breakfast, Yao Yu led the carriage out. When Yang Lan and Yang Gui saw the carriage, their eyes straightened, "Sister, that's a carriage!"

Yang Lan blinked, "It's really a carriage, Auntie, shall we go to Jiangzhou by carriage?"

Yao Yu smiled and said, "Yes, let's go to Jiangzhou in a carriage, hurry up and pick up our luggage."

The two siblings hurriedly carried their things to the carriage and put them away. It seemed that it was their first time riding in a carriage, and they looked very excited. "Sit down, ready to go." Yao Yu started to drive the horse after speaking.

The speed of the carriage is faster than that of an ox cart. At first, Yao Yu couldn't get used to Yang Lan and Yang Gui, so he deliberately drove very slowly. But after a while, he found that the two siblings didn't respond to any discomfort, and they were still very excited. Just drive the horse at the usual speed, and after a while, the carriage arrived in Jiangzhou.

Yang Lan and Yang Gui looked at the Chengbian in Jiangzhou, and they were all surprised, "We've arrived in Jiangzhou so soon."

"Yes, are you ready?" Yao Yu asked.

Yang Lan and Yang Gui each had high fighting spirit, "Get ready!"

Yao Yu directly drove the carriage to the location of the rented shop. Guan Peng struggled for three days, but he didn't wait for Yao Yu. He thought Yao Yu had already given up on the shop, but he didn't expect to see Yao Yu coming as soon as the door opened today, so he went out to greet him immediately. , "How? But to buy this shop, the shopkeeper and I have also fought for it in the past few days. If you are willing to buy this shop, our Fangzhuang is willing to give you ten tables and ten chairs."

Yao Yu didn't expect such a discount after waiting for three days, "So, the 800 taels is not a point less?" Yao Yu also saw that Peng Guanshi really wanted to make this single voice, And 800 taels seems to be really indispensable.

Guanshi Peng nodded, "That's true, we can only give you ten tables and ten chairs, but you can go to Qianheju in Jiangzhou to choose these tables and chairs."

Yao Yu knows that Qianheju is the best furniture store in Jiangzhou. Most importantly, Yao Yu himself plans to send Yang Gui here as an apprentice. "Is there an agreement between Fangzhuang and Qianheju?"

Guanshi Peng didn't know why Yao Yu asked such a question, but he still replied, "I have some friendship with Shopkeeper Yin of Qianheju."

Yao Yu smiled and nodded, "I don't know if Guanshi Peng can help me connect with Shopkeeper Yin later?"

Guanshi Peng was surprised and delighted when he heard this. What does Yao Yu mean?

Yao Yu didn't keep Steward Peng waiting, and said directly, "I've bought this shop, and I'm asking Steward Peng to help with the deed."

"Okay, I'll do it right away." Steward Peng, who was on his feet like a hot wheel, ran all the way to handle it. In less than half an hour, all the procedures were completed.

Yao Yu handed over 800 taels of silver, and Guanshi Peng said, "Since that's the case, I'll take Mrs. Yao to Qianheju." After the deal was completed, Guanshi Peng changed Yao Yu's name.

"Okay." But Yao Yu didn't care, after all, these titles don't mean anything.

After arriving at Qianheju, the people inside were very enthusiastic when they saw Guanshi Peng. Guanshi Peng said, "Is your treasurer Yin there?"

"Yes, I'm going to call shopkeeper Yin right now."

While waiting for shopkeeper Yin, Yao Yu took advantage of the opportunity to look at Qianheju. The furniture here is classified into different categories. There are many kinds of tables, such as round tables, square tables, and tea tables. The round tables are divided into different styles. Yao Yu was dazzled just looking at the colors.

Yao Yu hadn't finished sizing up, when Shopkeeper Yin came out, "Hey, brother Peng, why are you here today when you have time?"

Guanshi Peng smiled and said, "Come and see my brother, and take the guests to choose ten tables and ten chairs."

There is an agreement between Shopkeeper Yin's Qianheju and Guanshi Peng's house, so Shopkeeper Yin knows what the ten chapter tables and ten chairs represent, "But this one?"

Guanshi Peng said, "Yes, let me introduce you. This is Shopkeeper Yin, and this is Mrs. Yao."

After the two greeted each other, shopkeeper Yin was a little shocked. She didn't expect that Mrs. Yao would be able to buy a shop so generously. In fact, she could only go to Qianheju to choose tables and chairs after the transaction amount of Fangzhuang reached 1000 taels. But Guanshi Peng wanted to make this deal, so he got the right after talking with his shopkeeper for a long time.

"Since you are here to choose tables and chairs, Mrs. Yao, please take a look here." Unexpectedly, shopkeeper Yin introduced it in person, "I wonder what Mrs. Yao's shop is used for?"

Yao Yu didn't shy away from it, and answered directly, "Sell breakfast."
