Although Wang Dalang has been doing some small business in recent years, he has always been in the town, let alone the capital. He has never even done business in Gaoyang County.
It has to be said that Wang Ximeng posed a big problem for Wang Dalang.
Wang Ximeng didn't expect to rely on this big brother to do everything, so he sent a boy to investigate.
Two days later, I found out that it was because someone else had made more, better, and cheaper things. Wang Ximeng's things seemed to have no profit, and the merchants would naturally give up hers and choose someone else's.
So, Wang Dalang can't really be blamed for this.
After all, Wang Dalang was only responsible for running errands. This thing was made by Wang Ximeng's men, and the recipe also belonged to Wang Ximeng. Wang Dalang could not be blamed in any way.
Wang Ximeng was so angry that she had no other choice but to beat the bed.
For now, we can only find a way to sell all the things we made at a low price. As long as we don't lose money, we don't dare to expect to make much more.
Perhaps because of these trivial matters, Wang Ximeng had difficulty sitting down during confinement. She coughed continuously during confinement. Even though she ate as little salt as possible, she still had blisters at the corners of her mouth.
In fact, it is caused by being anxious and getting angry.
But Zhao Jiajun didn't know about all this and didn't care.
Having an extra daughter doesn't seem to have changed much for Zhao Jiajun.
He Hua told Zhao Jiajun the news she overheard, which naturally aroused his dissatisfaction.
"You said business was damaged? Do you know how serious it is?"
"I don't know who I am, but looking at my sister's anxious and angry look, I must have suffered a big loss."
Is this a big deal?
Zhao Jiajun was afraid that it would affect his expenses outside the home, so he hurriedly went to the main room.
Wang Ximeng has actually been feeling better these days, and the blisters at the corners of her mouth are no longer so serious.
The light in the room was dark, and Wang Ximeng's deliberate concealment meant that Zhao Jiajun really didn't notice it.
"Why are you here, husband? But you want to see our daughter?"
The baby was sleeping in a crib nearby. His face was red, and he couldn't tell who he looked like.
Zhao Jiajun just glanced at it without any deep feelings. He turned to look at Wang Ximeng: "I heard that you were born prematurely because of business matters."
Wang Ximeng was just stunned for a moment, then deliberately said calmly: "It's nothing. It's not considered premature birth, it's just six or seven days early. This is also common for pregnant women. Besides, look at Our baby looks like this, and he doesn’t look like a premature child.”
Zhao Jiajun really looked at the child one more time, and then said: "I hope you and your daughter are safe. I heard that my uncle made you angry. Are you okay now?"
"It's nothing serious. It's not my eldest brother who provoked me. It was someone who couldn't bear to see how easy our life was and deliberately ran against me. The beauty salon business couldn't be done before, so I thought about going to Feng County to see if there was any sales. , I don’t want to just open up sales and be blocked by others again.”
When Wang Ximeng said this, after coughing twice, his eyes lit up and he said: "Speaking of which, I was about to ask you, but who did you offend without knowing it? Otherwise, how could they hit you so accurately? My business?"
Zhao Jiajun was confused by the question.
Has he offended anyone?
He really doesn’t know!
He did have a few enemies in the academy, but he thought he didn't show it too obviously, and the other party's family background was also average. He didn't dare to offend the son of a real powerful person.
"I just focused on studying and never offended any powerful people."
Wang Ximeng also felt that it couldn't be him. After all, he still had to take the scientific examination. In the future, he expected to be able to curry favor with more powerful people, so how could he offend those people?
However, it is a fact that her business has suffered setbacks, so who is targeting her?
Wang Ximeng didn't understand, and Zhao Jiajun got nothing here. In the end, Wang Ximeng could only attribute it to his own bad luck.
good
Now, the teahouse has opened, and so far the effect is quite good.
There are two storytellers now. One is about immortals. Stories with this kind of plot are popular among men, women, old and young. The other is about Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai. In short, they are all novel. The story is not available on the market.
A total of four storytellers were hired in the teahouse, two stories a day, one lasting an hour, several storytellers were replaced, the work was not tiring, and the wages were pretty good.
Wang Ximeng had already thought about it. After finishing these two books, she asked people to tell them about the Legend of White Snake and the Seven Fairies. In short, she wanted to tell something that no one here had heard of before, so that it would be novel and attract customers.
Wang Ximeng did the math, and she and Wang Qin'er each invested half of the money in the shares. However, because the story and business strategy were Wang Ximeng's, Wang Ximeng owned 60% of the shares and Wang Qin'er owned 40%.
Even so, Wang Ximeng suffered the loss.
No matter how you look at it, it looks like she is taking Wang Qin'er to make money.
A few days later, Wang Dalang finally sold all those things, brought the money back and gave it to his sister, and then thought about returning to his hometown.
"Brother, why are you so anxious? Even if you want to go back, you still have to wait until I finish my confinement."
Wang Dalang was a simple and honest man, and he nodded and said, "I will wait until you finish your confinement period before going back. I just want to tell your sister-in-law, after all, there are several children at home, and we are not worried."
Wang Ximeng didn't answer. Her eldest nephew can now help in the shop, so there's nothing to worry about!
Forget it, I originally wanted to pull them out, but it seems that I can't pull them up, and that's my fate.
Wang Ximeng felt that her elder brother and sister-in-law were hopeless and could not seize the opportunities given to them.
However, Wang Dalang and his wife felt that they could never feel at ease even if they lived here. They always felt that when they returned to their hometown, their feet were really on the ground. Here, they felt like they had no roots every day, and they felt unspeakably flustered.
To put it bluntly, I just feel guilty and unsure.
Wang Dalang has opened a restaurant in the town, and the business is not bad. Although it is not as good as Liu's restaurant, it is still good for them. As long as you work hard, you can make six or seven taels of income in a month. , this is much better than doing farm work and helping others.
Wang Dalang still has fields in the countryside, and running a small shop can save sixty or seventy taels of silver throughout the year. He feels that this is practical.
Xie Rongzhao soon learned that Wang Ximeng had completely given up the beauty product business. While he was happy, he also wanted to see what other skills he could bring out of Wang Ximeng.
Xie Rongzhao, Wang Yinuo and Zhao Ying also went to the teahouse to listen to books together. The story was indeed novel, but it was not so confusing that it would make people dizzy. However, Xie Rongzhao had to admit that Wang Ximeng's mind was indeed very bright. quick.
Xie Rongzhao is thinking about whether to kill this teahouse too?
