h of relief, tidied him up briefly, and went out with a heavy heart.She had no idea. The moment she turned around, her drunken husband opened his eyes, and the coldness in them was like an ice age str...The village head was delighted for the women of Ercun, and was the first to speak: "Funiu is really amazing! This business is truly a very profitable one!"

The onlookers also agreed.

"Yes, she's indeed the type of woman who is suited to stay at home and raise children while doing housework."

"We've all eaten bean sprouts, but how come no one ever thought of starting this business, and making such a huge profit!"

"This place is still in the new capital. If it were elsewhere, selling these wouldn't be difficult; a monthly income of a thousand taels would be possible, right"

Jia Yin smiled happily and, endearingly, pulled on the marquis' sleeve, whispering, "Father-in-law, shouldn't we keep a thousand jin of supplies in the military camp every day"

"I can make the call and give you a discount."

The lord found it amusing, pulled her down to sit, and offered her a piece of dried fried knife fish. "No discount needed, one thousand catties a day, try it for three days first."

If the soldiers are willing to eat, they can have more.

The winter menu is rather limited, and the soldiers are indeed complaining. If you can improve it in some way, you'll be rewarded for your efforts.

"Haha, that's great!" Jiayin couldn't help but clap her hands in delight, then quickly turned to her second uncle, "Second Uncle, does your relief office have any manpower You could have people from the second village wholesale bean sprouts and go door-to-door selling them. It would be very easy to make a profit!"

"Well then, I've been worrying about having nothing to do during the winter," Li La Er grinned and replied, instructing, "Let's just settle on this for now, and we'll discuss the details later."

In just a few words, Ercun's bean sprout workshop was up and running, with sales channels and markets already established.

Jia Yin was extremely pleased and quickly urged everyone to eat, being very attentive. This made everyone laugh with delight.

Early the next morning, Li Laoer and others entered the city for business. Once their errands were done, the house fell silent again.

After having her meal, Jia Yin headed straight to Er Cun village and brought Xiao Cui and the others to soak beans. She taught them how to sprout beans, step by step.

Even Wu Da's mother was invited to go and provide on-site guidance.

She's a veteran, with much more practical experience!

Xiaocui and the others never expected that after just one night, the county princess would have found them a good job, and it was light, convenient, and profitable.

They treated the county princess as if she were their ancestor.

Jia Yin stated beforehand that she wouldn't participate in the division of silver, but she had two requests for everyone.

First, you must keep a close eye on the workshop and don't give anyone an opportunity to do bad things.

After all, it's something that goes in at the entrance, and it needs to be delivered to the military camp. If anything goes wrong, no one can afford to take responsibility.

The second thing is to bring along the Qi Jia boy.

Qi Jia's boy is the one whose father died in battle earlier, and whose mother took the compensation money and ran away, leaving him behind.

He was only eight or nine years old, and for some time he had been taking care of his five or six-year-old sister. He learned to cook and wash clothes, chop wood and burn the stove, and even kept up with his studies. He managed to keep the family going.

Both Xin Cun and Er Cun villagers all saw this with their own eyes. Such a good child, everyone was willing to lend a helping hand.

Germinating bean sprouts is not hard work, it just takes carefulness. An eight or nine-year-old child could do half a day's work and be sufficient.

From now on, every month, Qi Xiazi just needs two taels of silver, which is enough for him and his sister to live a better life.

Xiaocui and the others naturally readily agreed.

Even if the county princess didn't say anything, they would naturally do so.

As they were military dependents, responsible for the safety of the camp and caring for the children of fallen comrades was their duty.

I have no choice!

Soon, a large batch of beans were soaked. The willow basket for sprouts was also being woven quickly, and the light-proof room was tidied up.

Seeing this, Jiayin became a hands-off manager, leaving everything to Wu Daniu and Xiaocui to handle.

Mrs. Wu had been taking care of Huijang's child, but now that Huijang has taken the child south, she suddenly finds herself with nothing to do. She feels uncomfortable all over.

This way, she found a way to make a living and an outlet for her free time, but she was delighted.

Every day she rushed back and forth between the new village and the second village, her steps lighter, her meals more plentiful.

The village chief was also pleased to see this.

He occasionally accompanied his wife for walks, which drew some teasing remarks from onlookers and added a touch of liveliness to the village...

Jia Yin had been staying at home for three days, deciding on the kinds and quantities of pastries for the New Year's gift boxes, and writing some lists. Then she left Shui Yun at home to be in charge of baking the pastries, and took Shui Ling back into town.

They brought along two thousand eggs of chicken and one thousand eggs of duck.

Eggs are placed in baskets of eighty-eight, each basket covered with a fine woven grass net, decorated beautifully and delicately. They sell for one tael of silver per basket.

The preserved duck eggs are also cooked.

Every twenty are placed in a neatly arranged wicker basket.

Though guaranteed runny yolks, just five hundred wen.

To enrich the variety of goods sold in the shop, put some fresh fruits and vegetables on display.

Of course, the profit is quite good too...

After a few days' work, the two-story restaurant next to Tian Tian Fruit and Vegetable Shop was almost ready.

Seeing the success of the fruit and vegetable shop, Gu Li felt more optimistic about the hot pot business.

When he was idle, he estimated the incoming goods of the fruit and vegetable store and calculated how much he could get as his share. But he was really surprised.

It's too much, so much that a month's bonus could cover him several years' worth of wages....

This is just a fruit and vegetable stand, if hot pot also opened......

He didn't dare to think about it anymore, for fear that he would laugh out loud and be embarrassed.

Jia Yin brought Shui Ling and Mu Xu around the floors, up and down, and was quite satisfied.

But taking care of guests' meals and simply selling fruits are different. There are more unexpected situations, and staff need to cooperate well with each other.

So, Jiayin was a little worried that the thirty trainees wouldn't be able to handle it.

She thought about it and wrote invitations, hosting a dinner party for her girl friends.

Let's have dinner at the new restaurant and have hot pot.

Not only that, she mobilized Second Uncle, Mr. Wen, Eldest Brother, even Liu Zhiheng and Mrs. Jia Er...

One person gave each table their share, asking them to invite friends and family to try the hot pot.

Of course, it's not for nothing that people eat it.

First, it gives new hires a chance to make mistakes. If something goes wrong, family won't blame each other.

Secondly, I'd also like to hear your feedback, whether it's about the taste or the dishes themselves. Are there any areas we could improve

This, in a past life, was quite common practice.

But it was rarely seen in Tianwu. When the invitation was sent out, everyone who heard about it found it novel.

Especially girls like Gu Qingqing, fearing their families might disagree, immediately agreed and even sent someone to ask Jia Yin if she could bring along her familiar cousins or nieces.

As an unmarried woman, I rarely get the chance to go out for meals.

This invitation gave them a rare good excuse, of course they had to seize it tightly.

Actually, the girls overthought it.

Like Gu's family, they are familiar with Li family's style of doing things and are delighted that Gu Qingqing and the county princess interact more.

Like Xu Xi's family, even if they didn't like Jiayin, they envied her ability to make money and secretly hoped that their daughter would go to the new restaurant to have a look and learn some skills...

As for Li Lao Er and the others, they had eaten hot pot at home many times, so naturally, they were full of confidence and invited their colleagues and friends widely.

So, on the day of the trial business, there were actually people coming and going in front of the restaurant. There were seven or eight tables set up upstairs and downstairs...low whisper: "In Kyoto, there are countless noblewomen with such thoughts."After sharing their secret, the two of them felt even closer. They leaned against each other and chatted quietly.Soon, it was...
