When Shen Fei saw little Fubao not moving, she persuaded him: "Little Fubao, Shitou will be your guard from now on. Go over and see him quickly and cultivate your relationship."
Both Erni and Tieniu's deeds of sale were in Shen Fei's hands, and Shen Fei was now Mrs. Hou, so neither Erni nor Tieniu thought about redeeming themselves.
After all, their family really had a lot to eat, and Erni felt that if the young lady hadn't taken care of them, she and Tieniu would have starved to death, or even starved to death.
In fact, what Er Ni said is right, that is, what Shen Fei lacks most is food.
When Erni and Tieniu eat, they no longer use big bowls, but eat directly from small basins.
Moreover, the two also gave birth to a child who can also eat. Even though Li Shitou is only ten months old, he can now eat rice, and he can eat a lot in one meal.
Erni saw that her fat son could follow Xiao Fubao. This meant she had found a long-term meal ticket. How could she not be happy?
So she held on to Shi Shi, who was still having difficulty walking, and walked towards Little Fubao, "Master Fubao, let Xiao Shi Shi play with you from now on, okay?"
Little Shitou was still very happy to see Little Fubao. He clumsily walked toward Little Fubao on his fat legs, and kept talking back.
Because he was talking baby talk and was dripping with laughter, he suddenly stayed there for a long time.
Xiao Fu Bao: "......"
Little Fu Bao slipped away and ran away, "He's too young. Come and play with me when he's older!"
Seeing that Little Fu Bao was far away from him again, Little Shitou stopped doing anything and broke away from his mother's hand. He stopped walking and started crawling.
Swish, swish, I crawled to little Fubao's side and hugged little Fubao's calf.
Little Fu Bao was shorter than Xiao Shitou. He couldn't stand anymore and fell on Xiao Shitou.
Shen Fei saw the two children falling into a ball. Although there was a mat on the ground, she was afraid that Xiao Fubao would crush the little stone and cry.
Who knew that I heard giggles.
"This kid has a good temper!"
Erni smiled and said: "Miss, the little stone is different from when it was first born. It doesn't like to cry anymore. This kid is very solid now."
Shen Fei still likes meaty little stones, "Okay, then your family can move back to the house, and you can still be little Fubao's playmate when you are young."
Xiao Fu Bao: "......"
Xiao Fubao glanced at the chubby little fat man with disgust. He refused in his heart. He didn't need a child to accompany him.
But Xiao Fubao already knew Shen Fei very well and knew that when he said he objected, he didn't.
Xiao Fubao looked at the silly little boy who was smiling at him, and reached out to pinch his little face.
Yeah, it's meaty and feels good.
Little Shitou thought his brother was playing with him, so he turned over and sat up.
When Little Shitou sits up, he is really bigger than Little Fu Bao. He is also a giant baby in the world of babies.
Little Fu Bao stretched out his chubby hand and pinched Little Shitou's fat arm. Little Shitou didn't cry, but even laughed, showing a few little teeth.
Shen Fei felt relieved watching the interaction between Xiao Fubao and Xiao Shitou.
She thinks her son has found a good playmate.
Erni was naturally willing to listen to Shen Fei's arrangement, but she thought of Uncle Li and said, "Miss, I will have to take the child back to the village from time to time to show my father-in-law."
Shen Fei nodded, "It's okay. I'll bring Uncle Li back later and find someone else to look after him at the pig farm."
Shen Fei discovered that raising pigs has yet to make money by selling toilet paper.
She can raise less pigs in the future, and she is not short of money now.
Erni was naturally very happy when she heard this, "Okay, when I get home tonight, I will tell my father-in-law the good news!"
Erni Tieniu and Uncle Li are all elderly people in Shen Fei's family, and their marriage contracts are in her hands. They have been loyal to her for such a long time.
Shen Fei felt that at the end of the year, they should be rewarded well.
After Shen Fei and Er Ni met, she let Er Ni watch the two children playing while she went outside to meet Manager Liu and Manager Zhang.
When Zhang Guangzhen came this time, she brought a lot of baby diapers for Shen Fei. There were two big boxes, and they were placed in the warehouse.
After all, Shen Fei's belly is getting bigger and she will give birth soon, which is the time when she can use it.
After Shen Fei came in, Liu Sanquan and Zhang Guangzhen hurriedly saluted.
"Hello ma'am!"
"Miss!"
The two people have different titles. The servants on Shen Fei's side always call Shen Fei "Miss", as if to emphasize who they used to be.
Shen Fei didn't care or correct him.
It doesn't matter what you call it.
After Shen Fei sat down, she asked, "Both of you, please tell us about our business this year!"
Zhang Guangzhen took the account book, glanced at Liu Sanquan, and said, "Brother Liu, let's talk first!"
In the past two months, Liu Sanquan also inspected several of Tang Zhiling's shops in other places and transported the silver back to Chang'an City.
When Tang Zhiling first split up, Tang Guogong allotted him shops from other places, so Liu Sanquan was also very busy this year.
Liu Sanquan also wanted to compete with Zhang Guangzhen. He glanced at the other party and handed over his accounts.
"Madam, please take a look."
Liu Sanquan reported the accounts to Shen Fei last year. Shen Fei looked at the form of recording the accounts and found it very complicated, especially the numbers, which were all in uppercase traditional Chinese characters. It gave Shen Fei a headache.
So I gave the Arabic numerals to Liu Sanquan. At the beginning, Liu Sanquan thought it was unnecessary.
But once you get really familiar with it, you'll know how useful those numbers are.
This year, Liu Sanquan's eldest daughter Xiaoxi also stayed with Liu Sanquan and helped him keep accounts.
Liu Sanquan was very happy to know that Shen Fei also intended to train his children, Xiaoshuang and Xiaoxi, not just as ordinary servants serving people in the house.
Shen Fei took over Liu Sanquan's account book. Although the account book was not thick, the records were very clear and concise.
Liu Sanquan used the modern accounting method taught by Shen Fei. The income and expenses were very obvious in the table.
Fubaozhai's annual profit from vegetables, fruits and meat is 16,380 taels of silver.
The best-selling ones here are the chili peppers that will be released later. Many foreign merchants also buy Fubaozhai’s chili sauce, hot pot base, etc.
Followed by cantaloupe and watermelon, these fruits are also fresh in the capital.
Otherwise, you won't be able to make much money just by relying on vegetables and pork.
"Manager Liu has done a good job. Thanks to you for the shop in Beijing, I didn't expect to make a profit of more than 10,000 taels."
Manager Liu was very happy, “It’s our chili that sells well and we have the sole share.”
In fact, Manager Liu thinks that opening his own restaurant will make more money. "Madam, our chili peppers are so popular. Those hot pot restaurants all need our chili peppers. We can also open one ourselves."
Shen Fei shook her head, "The hot pot restaurant is in some trouble. Our family doesn't have many hands, so don't get involved in the restaurant business."
The reason why Shen Fei said this was that she felt that there was endless money to be made, and she knew that the restaurant business in the capital had big backers, and their backgrounds were somewhat weak after all.
Coupled with the relationship between Tang Zhiling's biological mother, their family still needs to keep a low profile and not let more people hold grudges.
