The first step in the book is to start selling tofu

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "It's just a small matter. I came to your house just to get together with Madam. The children have just finished their exams and the family is very noisy. I just wanted to take a break."

The Shi family knew that Lin Zhi brought her children and employees to take the exam, so when she said this, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law immediately believed it.

Shi's mother glanced at Shi Feiyang, and thinking of how he usually jumped up and down, she immediately understood: "Children are born to collect debts. I can't stand this one noisy kid in my family, so it's hard for you too."

When Shi Feiyang heard what his mother said, he immediately became unhappy and jumped up and said, "Mom, how can you say that to me? I am lively and energetic, how can I say I am noisy. It is normal for the brothers and sisters of Lin Zhi's family to relax after the exam. Unlike you, you always keep me at home. I am almost sick from boredom."

Shi's mother glared at him and said, "How dare you say that? Every time I asked you to study quietly, you either climbed a tree to rob a bird's nest or went to the river to catch fish and shrimp. Last time, you almost tore your clothes. How can you be a scholar at all?"

Shi Feiyang curled his lips and said, "Studying also requires a combination of work and rest. If you stay in the house all day, your brain will become dull. Lin Zhi, don't you agree?"

Lin Zhi smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Feiyang is a lively and smart kid. He will definitely have a great future. My kids didn't behave properly after the exams, which caused a lot of trouble for the family."

When Shi Feiyang heard Lin Zhi praising him, he immediately became excited: "Lin Zhi, you really have a good eye. When I have the ability in the future, I will definitely take your brothers and sisters to play and let them see how powerful I am."

Shi's mother shook her head helplessly: "You are just a boaster. Don't you realize how old you are? You still think about playing all day long."

Shi Feiyang grinned upon hearing this, intending to get away with it.

Mrs. Shi sat aside and listened to their conversation with a smile. When Shi Feiyang calmed down, she asked Lin Zhi, "I'm curious about what kind of small matter you need our help with."

Mrs. Shi felt that Lin Zhi was a treasure. From the stories she wrote, she knew that her knowledge and wisdom were first-rate. It was too rare for her to come to her for help.

Shi's mother was moved. Lin Zhi had no shortage of money, and it seemed that Lin Zhi wanted to borrow their family's "power".

Lin Zhi came here just to resolve the transfer of the shop. Since someone else had taken the lead, she certainly wouldn't take advantage of it.

"I bought a shop in the west of the city and am planning to transfer the ownership. I came here to learn about the transfer process." Lin Zhi explained: "It was very simple to transfer the ownership of my shop in the county town. The middleman here was hesitant and couldn't explain it clearly. I think it must be very complicated in the prefectural city."

Mrs. Shi nodded slightly and said, "Zhizhi, the transfer of a shop in the prefecture is indeed more complicated than in the county. First, you have to report to the government, submit relevant contract documents, and have a guarantor to testify to the legality and fairness of the transaction. Then the government will send someone to check the actual situation of the shop, including whether the area and structure of the shop are consistent with the contract, and whether there are any property rights disputes. This process will probably take a few days. If everything goes well, the transfer procedures can be officially completed and the corresponding taxes and fees can be paid."

Shi's mother added, "The key is the choice of guarantor. You have to find someone with a certain prestige and credibility so that the government will recognize him. Lin Zhi, if you don't have a suitable candidate in this city, we can help you find one or two."

Lin Zhi was delighted and said quickly, "Thank you so much, sister-in-law and old lady. I'm new here and I don't have many connections in this city. It would be great if I could get your help."

When Shi Feiyang heard that there was something to do, he came over again and said, "I can also help with finding a guarantor. I know a lot of uncles and they will definitely be willing to help."

Shi's mother rolled her eyes at him and said, "What reliable people do you know? Don't cause trouble for Zhizhi later."

Shi Feiyang said unconvincedly: "Mom, don't look down on me. There are many prominent figures among the elders of my friends."

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "It's good that Feiyang has this intention, but we still have to be cautious about this matter. Sister-in-law, is there anything we need to pay special attention to when the government inspects the shop?"

Mrs. Shi thought for a moment and said, "The main thing is to ensure that the current status of the shop is consistent with the contract. If there are some minor repairs or changes, it is best to inform in advance, otherwise it is easy to cause misunderstandings and delay the transfer process. Also, during this period, you must get along well with the government officials. If necessary, you can prepare some tea and snacks as a courtesy."

Lin Zhi remembered everything and said, "Thank you for your detailed information, sister-in-law. I will prepare well when I get back. When the shop is transferred, I will definitely reward you well."

Shi Mu waved her hands and said, "We are all family, so why bother talking about rewards? If you have any other difficulties in this city, just ask."

After discussing the transfer of the shop, Shi Feiyang's eyes lit up and he asked, "What kind of shop are you going to open this time? A braised meat shop, a barbecue shop, or a bookstore? Do you plan to stay in the city permanently?"

"Let's try opening a braised food shop first. If the business is good, I will consider opening a barbecue restaurant. As for the bookstore, I will not open it for the time being, but the copying team will come to the city together, and I will stay in the city as well." Lin Zhi explained.

"That's great!" Shi Feiyang jumped up happily. She finally didn't have to run to the county town to eat delicious food, nor did she have to run so far to buy the sequel to the novel.

Shi's mother and sister-in-law had never eaten the delicious food in Lin Zhi's store, but they were very excited when they heard that the copying team was coming and Lin Zhi would be stationed here permanently.

Everyone who reads Lin Zhi’s novels will love them.

Fei Yang said exaggeratedly: "Mother, sister-in-law, if Lin Zhi's braised food shop is opened, it will definitely be very popular in the capital. Her unique recipes are delicious foods that can't be found anywhere else."

Lin Zhi responded modestly: "Mr. Shi, you are too kind. It depends on whether the people in the city like it. I will also adjust some dishes appropriately according to the situation here."

Shi Feiyang asked anxiously, "Lin Zhi, when will your braised food shop open? I can't wait to help."

Lin Zhi thought for a moment and said, "It will take a long time. We have to wait until the shop is transferred, renovated and decorated, and purchase ingredients and kitchen utensils. All of this takes time, and I have to go back to the county town to do some work."

Mother Shi nodded and said, "Slow work brings out fine results. It is right to prepare more thoroughly. Zhizhi, does the arrival of your copying team mean that there will be more new books published?"
