In the past, Tongfu Inn's business was very average, with the highest profit in a day being six cents of silver. Li Dazui just went back and the loss was not big. But now it costs only six taels of silver a day, and one day of closure will cause huge losses.
"Wouldn't it be a delay to go back late and delay business?" Xiang Nan said, "Shopkeeper, let's do this. If you want me not to go back, there is only one way."
"What can I do?" Tong Xiang asked curiously.
"Bring my mother here to live, and I can visit her at any time." Nan said.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
"Shopkeeper, what you said makes sense." Bai Zhantang said quietly to Tong Xiangyu.
Big Mouth's mother now lives in Lijiagou, fifty miles away from Xia, and it takes most of a day to get there. So Li Dazui always had to take three days off.
But if you take Big Mouth Girl to the town, she can go home at any time, so you don't have to travel back and forth. The rest of the time can be spent working in the inn.
By saving six days of vacation in a month, the inn can earn thirty or forty taels more. This business is a good one.
"Okay, Big Mouth, I'll give you a salary increase." Tong Xiang thought for a long time and finally said, "One tael of silver a month~"
"Keep it up~" Bai Zhantang glared at her.
"Two liang~" Tong Xiangyu said again.
Bai Zhantang rolled his eyes.
"Three liang~" Tong Xiangyu could only say.
"Yes, shopkeeper, just three liang or three liang." Xiang Nan nodded. In fact, he didn't care much about money.)
Seeing that Xiang Nan's money had increased fivefold, everyone was envious, especially Guo Furong, "Shopkeeper, what about me?"
"What's wrong with you?" Tong Xiangyu looked at her in confusion.
"I also want a raise in wages." Guo Furong said pitifully.
With three taels of silver a month, she can go home in a year and a half. For two cents a month, she would have to work for twenty years.
"You'd better do your current job well." Tong Xiangyu said angrily, "I washed two more dishes at noon today. I won't deduct your money, so just be content."
"Hmph~" Upon hearing this, Guo Fu pouted angrily.
…
Xiang Nan stayed in Hexi and rented a house for Da Zui Niang. It is a detached house with three north rooms and two wing rooms. The monthly rent is one cent and five cents, which is quite good.
Then he bought some belongings and asked his neighbors to bring his wife to live in the city.
"Son, you are still promising, and you can bring your mother here to live." Big Mouth Girl said with a smile after getting off the carriage.
Her son had never achieved anything in his life, but he didn't expect that he would become successful now.
"Yes, mother, it's all because of the benevolence of our shopkeeper. I know it's really inconvenient for you to be alone in the countryside. You specially gave me a salary increase and asked me to take you to live in the city." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Oh, who's the shopkeeper? I have to salute her." The big-mouthed girl said immediately after hearing this.
"Oh, old lady, no need." Tong Xiangyu came forward with a smile, and suddenly asked Xiang Nan in surprise, "Why doesn't your mother look at people?" "
Laigang found that the big-mouth girl's eyes were not focused. She was looking away even though she was standing right in front of her, so she looked strange.
"I became blind before I was more than 20 years old." Big Mouth explained in a feminine way.
"Oh, no wonder." Tong Xiang nodded after hearing this.
No wonder Li Dazui has to go home every now and then. It turns out that his mother is not only old but also blind. She should have a personal photo.
"Mom, this is our shopkeeper, Tong Xiangyu." Xiang Nan introduced one after another, "The waiter Bai Zhan, the accountant Lu Qinghou, the handyman Guo Furong, and our shopkeeper's sister-in-law Mo Xiaobei."
"Hello everyone, hello everyone, my son is working here and I'd like to thank you for taking care of me. Please be polite here." Big Mouth Lady saluted.
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Tong Xiangyu said with a smile, "Old lady, it's been a hard journey, please sit down and have a cup of tea first~"
…
The aunt stayed at Tongfu Inn for a while, and after recognizing everyone, Xiang Nan took her to her new home.
"Mom, in these three north rooms, the cups and dishes, tables, chairs, benches, and cotton mattresses are all new. My son specially gave them to you.

You will live here from now on, and I will visit you often. He settled the old lady and said, "If you need anything, just tell me, and I'll give you whatever you want to eat." "
"Okay, son, my mother didn't support you in vain." Big Mouth Mother said happily.
"Mom, can I take you for a walk again?" Xiang Nan asked again.
"No need, you go about your business and take care of yourself." The aunt said with a smile.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Okay, I'll go back to the store first."
He knew that Li Dazui's mother was the well-known Broken Zhixuan in the world. Her gambling skills were superb, and her martial arts skills were unfathomable. Although I am blind, I don’t know how much I understand in my heart.
"By the way, son, you have made money now and are promising. When will you get me a wife?" Big Mouth Girl asked again.
"Mom, I'm working hard." Xiang Nan scratched his head and said, before he came to the world of "Wulin Gaiden," he was actually facing a marriage push.
…
In the next few days, Xiang Nan still rushed between the store and home.
His cooking skills are getting better and better, and his reputation is getting bigger and bigger. People from dozens of miles around come here specifically to eat.
And his relationship with the people in the store is becoming more and more harmonious.
Especially with Guo Furong, with his efforts in making friends, his relationship with Guo Rong has grown by leaps and bounds.
In the evening, Guo Furong was practicing the Shocking Palm in the courtyard.
"Mother Guo, where are you practicing? Xiang Nan came over and asked with a smile.
"Yes, the punches never leave the hands or the mouth. When we practice martial arts, we pay attention to the three nines in the winter and the three volts in the summer. We are not idle all day long." Guo Furong nodded.
"That's really hard work." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Miss Guo, I'm also very interested in practicing martial arts. Can you teach me a few simple moves?"
"You?!" Guo Furong was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay. But to be honest, you are practicing martial arts very late at your age. Even if you learn, it will be difficult to achieve success."
"Yes, I just learned a way to defend myself." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Okay then." Guo Furong nodded, "Then I will teach you a set of seventy-two small grappling techniques. After you learn it, you will at least have your own abilities. Watch carefully, walk on the bridge, kick your feet to eliminate... "
Guo Furong then practiced the seventy-two small capture masters one by one.
"Come on, try it." She said immediately.
Xiang Nan nodded. After getting off the field, he immediately practiced the seventy-two small grapplers.
He didn't dare to perform too well and only imitated 50% of the performance.
Because he knows that Guo Furong is a person who loves great skills and is a teacher. If he practices too poorly, he will be rejected, and if he practices too well, he will be rejected.
Just practice at 40 to 50%, which will not only reveal your talent, but also have a lot of room for improvement.
Guo Furong was very surprised when she saw Guo Furong.
It is not easy for Xiang Nan to imitate it after only reading it once.
"Okay, it seems you still have some talent." Guo Furong said with satisfaction, and then gave some pointers.
